At this moment, Shanfeng, who was sleeping in the basket, suddenly felt hot all over and even had a suffocating feeling of not being able to breathe. He was conscious, but he could not open his eyelids.
After struggling for a few moments, Shan Feng fell into chaos. At this moment, the spiritual energy in his blood was slowly gathering, eliminating the poisonous gas he had inhaled.
Although Shanfeng had fallen asleep and the panda mother was standing far away, unfortunately, the poisonous gas spewed by the giant centipede was aimed directly at them, so Shanfeng still inhaled some of it.
However, because it was wrapped in animal skin, it only inhaled a trace. The spiritual energy absorbed from the spirit beast meat it had eaten earlier came in handy, otherwise Shanfeng's life would probably have ended silently like this.
By the time the chipmunk returned to sleep, Shanfeng's breathing had returned to normal, but unfortunately, most of the spiritual energy he had absorbed and stored in his body had been consumed.
The migration was far from peaceful tonight. Not only did Lin Qian and his group encounter an attack by mutated centipedes, but the herd of beasts and other lone spirit beasts also met with danger.
It seems they have arrived at a nesting area of mutated centipedes, otherwise they wouldn't have been suddenly attacked by a group of centipedes.
at the same time.
...
Southern-Linhai City.
"Sir, the evacuation is ready."
"Evacuate all personnel." The middle-aged officer's steps trembled as soon as the order was given.
The young soldier who came to report from the side supported him, looking at his haggard face with concern.
The middle-aged officer waved his hand. "Let's go." The two words, spoken with a slight tremor, carried a hint of a sigh.
Turning to look at the sky that had been cleared of dark clouds, they felt the sultry sea breeze blowing from the direction of the coast, carrying that familiar scent of the sea—a scent they would likely never smell again.
The young soldier, supporting his officer, turned to look at the sky, his nose stinging with tears.
This city, once his pride and joy, the land they stood firm on, was now being forced to abandon...
Linhai City is a large coastal city. Before the major earthquake, this first-tier city was developing very well and had a dense population. Even after such a terrible thing as the spiritual tide vortex happened, people still chose to stay in the city. Very few people returned to their hometowns, and many even brought their families over.
It's not that people aren't afraid of the terrible vortex reappearing, but rather that the city has a large military presence and a navy along the coast, making it a very safe city.
Now, this city, protected by both the army and navy, can no longer hold on. They have no choice but to flee with all the surviving residents! The sooner the better!
After the major earthquake, more than 8 million urban residents survived in Linhai City, half the number before the earthquake.
(A typical first-tier city has a population of 20 million, which is a reference point, but parallel worlds are different.)
Honestly, I've been using Yeguo Reading to read and follow my favorite books lately. It has easy source switching, multiple reading voice options, and is compatible with both Android and Apple devices. (yeguoyuedu)
During the severe snowstorm, the surviving population of Linhai City did not change significantly. Until the weather warmed up, the number of people lost in the city due to natural disasters or man-made calamities was less than 10,000.
This demonstrates the military's comprehensive control capabilities.
While other cities have seen their populations reduced to less than one in ten due to various reasons, Linhai City still has half of its population surviving.
However, the surviving population of Linhai City is now only 2 million. From 8 million to 2 million, this is not a drastic decrease, but a tragedy.
As the weather warmed up, the people of Linhai City, under the protection of the military, began to work hard to restore the city and rebuild their homes.
Even with the successive devastating earthquakes and snowstorms, the survivors in Linhai City never lost hope for life, and everyone was full of strength for the future.
They firmly believe that they can rebuild their homes and return to their former peaceful and happy lives.
However, the cruelty of nature far exceeds human imagination.
Several months ago, an unusually heavy rain brought some unexpected events, but it did not cause too many problems, and people gradually forgot about it.
A month after the heavy rain, on an ordinary night, another heavy rain fell. That day, screams and gunfire echoed in the sea breeze.
Countless terrifying, fish-like monsters crawled out of the turbulent, murky seawater.
People had no prediction of this disaster and were completely unprepared for it; millions perished in the jaws of wild animals in a single day.
The military research team in Linhai City had made predictions about the fish mutations, and the navy had also taken precautions.
Unfortunately, the mutations in the fish far exceeded their predictions and estimates; those bloodthirsty, terrifying monsters were almost impervious to weapons.
Their scales and armor made them impervious to gunfire, and their enormous size allowed them to roam freely without fear.
The navy's fleet should have been invincible, but due to the energy changes caused by the upheaval, most of its high-tech products were unusable. There were still plenty of powerful cannonballs, but they were also unusable.
Basic firearms and artillery became humanity's most powerful weapons, but these weapons appeared extremely insignificant when faced with the vast ocean and endless sea creatures.
After paying a heavy price, Linhai City finally won a victory, a bitter one.
After experiencing this terrible beast tide, the military decided to evacuate.
Faced with the deep and vast ocean, their current armed forces are simply unable to protect themselves.
The military began evacuating residents a month ago. At that time, the temperature had not yet become very high, but the evacuation was still difficult due to the change in terrain.
