Chapter 40 The original hero appears

The sudden flood and the sudden drop in temperature have made the bustling first-tier cities lose their former vitality. Looking around, the whole world seems to be frozen in ice and snow, cold and without a trace of vitality.

The sky was so gloomy that it seemed like it was about to collapse, making people feel particularly irritated.

The ground was covered with ice, and even with anti-skid chains the car could not go fast. The driver had to be extremely careful, as the car would slip on the ice if he was not careful.

"This road is so difficult to drive on. I don't know when this kind of day will end." Lan Jingming sighed while sitting in the passenger seat.

"Yes, we have suffered such a great disaster. There have been three months of heavy rain, and then a sharp drop in temperature. When will things return to normal? It has been half a year since the natural disaster, but it feels like a long time has passed. I really miss the old days! I really hope the natural disaster will end soon!"

Ke Feiguang, who was sitting in the back, echoed this. The others didn't say anything, but nodded slightly, obviously agreeing with what the two of them said.

Suddenly the man sitting in the middle of the back seat asked, "What if the natural disaster never ends?"

The other four people were stunned. Except for Zhang Qiu who was driving and could not turn his head, he could only look through the rearview mirror. Lan Jingming, Ke Feiguang and Li Hongsheng all looked at Xiao Lou who was sitting in the middle with his eyes closed.

Sensing their gazes, the man slowly opened his eyes, as if he was stabbed by the reflection of the ice surface. He slowly narrowed his eyes, his dark pupils were as deep and calm as an ancient well, occasionally flashing a sharp light that made people feel terrified.

Ke Feiguang could no longer bear it and asked first: "Captain, what did you mean by what you just said? Did you get any inside information?"

"Yeah." Xiao Lou rubbed his swollen and painful forehead and told them the news he had just received from home.

"According to the information we received from above, there are rumors that we are about to enter the end times, and natural disasters are the sign and beginning of the end times."

"The core group of people are arguing over this matter now, and are roughly divided into two factions. One faction believes that the people should not be abandoned and that they should be rescued as much as possible; the other faction believes that existing resources should be gathered and strength should be preserved to deal with future situations." Xiao Lou sat up straight with a serious expression.

After hearing what Xiao Lou said, the four people fell silent. The carriage became quiet for a while and the atmosphere was heavy.

They are able to stand out from thousands of outstanding soldiers and become members of the special operations team not only because they are the best in skills, but also because they are the smartest, observing things more carefully and thinking more deeply than others.

It’s not that they didn’t notice the unusualness of this year’s natural disasters, but they still held on to a glimmer of hope or were unwilling to believe that the world had really changed.

Xiao Lou's words were tantamount to directly puncturing the fantasy in their hearts, but it was not so difficult for them to accept it. After all, they were prepared in their hearts, but they were unable to change their mindset for the time being.

The silence was finally broken unexpectedly.

"Bang, bang, bang—" The sound of the car being hit by heavy objects continued to ring, and a group of people appeared in front...

When Xiao Lou and his team were stopped, Yan Mo and his team had already safely arrived at the armory.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, this place is well built. The outer wall is so high, and there are wire mesh and electric fences on top. If there was no electricity and no one was guarding it, who would be so desperate as to cause trouble? Isn't that courting death?"

Xiangwen sighed as he looked at the armory in front of him that was built like an iron barrel.

"Now here comes the question. How do we get in?" Shu Xin followed Yan Mo and asked.

Yan Mo reached out and touched the wall, looked around and found a suitable location, then took out the explosives from his bag and said, "Blow it up."

"...What a simple and crude method. Simple but effective, right?" Shu Xin was stunned for a moment. She never thought that her boyfriend, who was always resourceful, would use such a simple and violent method.

"Well, the upper echelons of City A have forgotten about the armory temporarily. After all, they are not fools. Soon someone will realize the importance of the armory. Before they take any action, let's get it first."

Shuxin was not stupid and figured out the trick immediately.

The armory was located far away from the city, and there was no one living within a ten-kilometer radius. The amount of explosives was calculated to be enough to blow up the wall without causing much vibration.

The armory inside is still well preserved, without any signs of erosion by the flood. The door inside cannot be as simple and crude as the wall outside, because weapons are stored inside, and one has to be careful when using fire, let alone explosives.

Yan Mo gave Shu Xin a look, and Shu Xin understood and took out the things Yan Mo had prepared the night before leaving from the space.

Bending down to pick up the things on the ground, Yan Mo and Mu Qimai each worked on the door in front of them, and a hole wide enough for one person to enter and exit appeared on the armory door, which was as sturdy as a bank vault door.

Shu Xin and Xiang Wen were stunned by this operation and said they had never seen it before.

"What are you standing there for? Come in." Mu Qimai greeted the two people behind him and followed Yan Mo's footsteps into the armory.

“Wow~”

"Wow~"

Shu Xin and Xiang Wen hurriedly followed, and as soon as they came in, they were struck by the various weapons neatly arranged in front of them.

I have to say, it is worthy of being the largest arsenal in City A. The space inside is estimated to be the size of five or six basketball courts, and the height is about five meters. Boxes of guns, bullets, and explosives are stacked together, and there are even some new weapons that have just been developed.

A few people roughly counted the number of weapons and had an idea of ​​the harvest this time. Yan Mo took Shu Xin around the space to collect things.

In less than fifteen minutes, all the weapons inside were stored by Shu Xin. The four people had just come out and had not walked far when they heard the sound of a car driving in the distance.

Several people looked at each other and quickly hid aside.

This area was surrounded by lush vegetation, and the temperature dropped suddenly, directly blocking it with a layer of ice, forming a natural ice shelter. Shu Xin and the others hid behind it and were completely shielded.

The people in that car were obviously heading for the armory. If they left directly, they would inevitably collide with the newcomers. The armory was empty, and they happened to appear here, which would easily arouse suspicion.

The military off-road vehicle slowly stopped and five men got out of the vehicle. Their faces changed when they saw the outer wall that had been violently broken.

"Captain, the wall has been blown open. It seems someone is faster than us and has gotten there first." Li Hongsheng frowned.

Xiao Lou said nothing. He walked to the blown-up wall, observed it carefully for a while, and concluded: "It was blown up today..."
