Qin Ze switched the image on the screen again. They saw the heavy rain falling from the sky. The rain was pouring down like a waterfall, and the water level on the ground was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye. They fell into silence for a moment.
Is this the true horror of the apocalypse? How is this any different from the annihilation of humanity?
At the current rate, the tallest buildings in the city will be submerged in less than two days.
Unless the rain stops.
Qin Ze finally understood why it was said before that there was no real doomsday disaster. Compared with the current situation, it was nothing. No wonder the natural disasters encountered before were horrific, but not called real doomsday disasters.
The fat man swallowed hard and said, "Xiao Ze, those people who managed to escape to the barren mountain are really lucky. Judging from the current situation, even if they had water transportation, they would probably be drowned by the pouring rain in no time."
Qin Ze switched the camera to the barren mountain. Although the rain was heavy nearby, it seemed relatively peaceful compared to the rain pouring down like a waterfall in the city.
Although the rain was heavy, as long as the people on the water transportation could clear out the water in time, they could still paddle for a short period of time.
It seems that his previous guess was wrong. The person hiding on the barren mountain should be near the outskirts of the city.
Because the rain is so terrible now, people in the city can't go out at all.
What was strange was that when he had adjusted his position to watch from the villa area, the rain there was not as heavy as in the city, even though he was clearly in the city.
Qin Ze adjusted several aspects and found that this natural disaster was distributed across a certain area. The closer to the city center, the heavier the rain. Although the villa was in the city, it was more inclined to the outer area, so the rain was relatively small compared to the city center.
"Tsk, the blind man has finally seen the light. This is the first time I've seen such a clearly demarcated natural disaster."
The city is neither big nor small. Under normal circumstances, it should not be like this.
In any case, it has to be divided into regions one by one.
I can only say that natural disasters are a bit weird.
Jie Yuchen stared at the light screen, lost in thought. After a while, he spoke: "I feel it's somewhat targeted."
"You see, the closer you get to the city center, the more severe the natural disasters become. It's a bit like revenge."
As for what kind of revenge it is, it is naturally nature.
Qin Ze suddenly remembered something: "I seem to remember that the closer you get to the city center, the more serious the pollution becomes, and the fewer plants there are around."
"Not only that, people living in the city center are either wealthy or privileged. Compared to the pollution that ordinary people cause to the earth, some wealthy people consume hundreds of times more water, electricity, and other utilities in a single day than ordinary people."
Qin Ze still remembered a video he had seen. How many people would have to save water to save the amount of water consumed by a golf course?
Zhang Qiling nodded in agreement, obviously thinking what Qin Ze said made sense.
Qin Ze suddenly remembered the cruel truth that Jie Yuchen had discovered not long ago. He controlled the light curtain to search every corner of the country. After a while, a base with a rudimentary shape came into their sight.
The base is located deep in the mountains, surrounded by high walls. There are patrol teams coming and going. The residential areas, industrial areas, etc. are completely divided. The area is not large, but it is well organized.
The base is high in the middle and low around, and the roads are all made of cement. Water control measures have been taken. It is also raining around the base, but the rain is lighter than in the suburbs.
The surrounding trees are lush and green, which can effectively prevent landslides.
Judging from the scale of the base, it will take at least three to five months to complete. It seems that they have made preparations early on.
It is even possible that they had already planned to abandon civilians and found a way out before the natural disaster occurred.
Qin Ze also saw that they had already made preparations. The granary had a lot of space and was filled with grain.
Huge covers made of specially made glass and unknown metal wire mesh cover a large open space filled with crops, and some areas are designated for raising animals.
You can tell this is where they feed themselves.
Wuxie also noticed that although the open space was large, it was not enough to grow various types of food. They only picked some food that was more filling and nutritious, as well as fruits and vegetables to plant, and even used efficient means to make full use of a large area of open space.
It is a small ecological cycle with a large pond inside where fish are swimming happily.
The base is filled with various sturdy houses with all kinds of facilities, and even has several entertainment areas.
Qin Ze continued to dig and soon came to the center of the base, where a high-tech machine was running.
After some observation, they found that this machine was a controller that could control the defense shield of the base's outer wall. Yes, the defense shield.
They even developed this thing!
It can be used to resist various disasters and prevent the base from being destroyed, but the energy required is also very large!
People outside haven't even heard of it, and don't even know that their technology has reached this level.
"I think this base won't be completed in just three to five months. Even if we build it a year or two in advance, it might not be completed!"
"Just looking at the prototype of the base doesn't seem like much, but looking into the structure inside is really interesting, especially the technical aspects."
As Qin Ze spoke, he couldn't help but switch to the current living conditions of ordinary people outside.
Compared with the people in the base, there is a world of difference. The people in the base have enough food and clothing, and even have happy smiles on their faces. They feel very safe. Only a few people are still complaining about the decline in their quality of life.
They were accompanied by fine wine and delicious food, and with beautiful women by their side, they were having a great time.
As for the people outside, some have even run out of food and ammunition. They are fighting to the death for a bite of food, and they also have to be wary of the malicious intent of others.
Watching the water level gradually rising outside, every minute and every second was torture.
Despair gradually welled up in the hearts of those who had been struggling before, but at this time some people took the opportunity to cause chaos, wanting to live a life like an aristocrat and exploit others.
The situation of the elderly, women, children and young people among a group of young and middle-aged people is becoming increasingly difficult.
Even some elderly people and children were abandoned.
You know, this is only the first day of the apocalyptic disaster!
How cruel will the world be in the future? How many more lives will be lost?
