Inside the safe house, everyone sat around. Su Yao, with a serious expression, began the conversation: "In this high-temperature apocalypse, the risk of disease transmission has increased dramatically, so we need to prioritize the planning of medical supplies reserves." As she spoke, she searched for a list of medical supplies in the system. "Things like antipyretics, anti-inflammatory drugs, burn ointments, and agents that can purify water and air are all indispensable."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yu immediately replied, "I saw some remnants of medicine in the ruins of a pharmaceutical company before. Although they were corroded by the high temperature, we might still find something useful. I'll go check it out right away." With that, he picked up his ice sword, his eyes resolute.
Su Yao's father also stood up: "I'll go with you. It'll be good to have someone to look after you on the way, and we can bring back more supplies."
After the two set off, Su Yao, her mother, and the cloaked figure began to organize the existing medical resources in the house. Su Yao's mother took out an old medicine box and sorted the medicines into categories, while Su Yao used the system to check the expiration dates and efficacy of the medicines. The cloaked figure drew some runes that could extend the shelf life of the medicines and enhance their effects.
“These runes will allow the medicine to last longer in high-temperature environments,” the cloaked man said.
Afterward, they began to make their own simple protective masks and suits. Su Yao took out special fabric from the system space, her mother cut it, and the cloaked figure added protective runes to make it able to resist high-temperature radiation and germ invasion.
Ling Yu and Su Yao's father searched the ruins of the pharmaceutical company with great difficulty. A pungent odor permeated the ruins, and small creatures mutated by the high temperatures occasionally darted out. Ling Yu wielded his sword to defend himself, his ice-based abilities flashing as he repelled the approaching mutated creatures. Su Yao's father, meanwhile, carefully rummaged through the rubble for medicine.
"Look, here are several unopened boxes of fever reducers!" Su Yao's father exclaimed excitedly.
They carefully packed the medicines they found into their backpacks, and also collected some medical equipment, such as thermometers and syringes.
Back at the safe house, the group carefully stored the newly found medical supplies. Su Yao then suggested, "We need to set up an isolation area in the safe house so that if anyone gets infected, they can be isolated and treated promptly."
So they used wooden boards and plastic sheeting to partition off a small isolation room in a corner, and the cloaked figures drew runes inside and outside the room to prevent the spread of germs.
Meanwhile, to cope with reduced grain production and food shortages caused by the high temperatures, they created a small heat-resistant plant garden in the backyard of the safe house. Su Yao took out heat-resistant vegetable and fruit seeds, such as cactus fruit and okra, from her system space. Su Yao's father was responsible for turning the soil and sowing the seeds, her mother watered and fertilized them, and the cloaked figure applied growth-promoting runes to encourage the seeds to germinate and grow.
"These plants are more likely to survive in high-temperature environments, providing us with fresh food and nutrition," Su Yao said.
In addition, they reinforced the doors and windows of the safe house. Ling Yu used his ice-based powers to reinforce the metal door and window frames, making them more resistant to high temperatures and external impacts. The cloaked figure affixed special rune stickers to the doors and windows to enhance their sealing and protection.
To improve their ability to deal with attacks from high-temperature beast hordes, they conducted tactical drills. Ling Yu stood on the roof of the safe house, simulating the release of ice-based attacks, while Su Yao used her spatial abilities to create obstacles and traps inside the house. The cloaked figure set up defensive rune arrays, and Su Yao's parents were responsible for passing weapons and supplies.
"If the beast horde comes from the east, Ling Yu will first launch an ice spike attack to slow them down. Then I will use a spatial trap to trap some of them, and the cloaked figure will activate the rune array to block them. Everyone should work closely together to ensure we can defend the safe house," Su Yao commanded.
Through continuous preparation and drills, they gradually improved their strategies and measures to cope with the high-temperature apocalypse. Although the road ahead is full of unknowns and dangers, Su Yao's family, Ling Yu, and the Cloaked People, with their unity, cooperation, wisdom, and courage, built a solid defense line in the safe house, ready to meet the severe challenges of the high-temperature apocalypse at any time, hold on to the hope of survival, and continue to write a resilient chapter in the apocalypse.
