Chapter 404 Help
Lao Gao said, "Impossible. Even if it rains again, it can't be a rain of insects. How can there be so many insects in the world to gather together and make it rain again?"
"But even if it is another mutant creature, it will be enough to give us a hard time. I just hope we can arrive safely this time." Ling Jiang said.
But it is hard to say whether we can arrive safely on the next journey.
Ling Jiang was actually quite curious. "I feel like the equipment at the Jingshi base is much more advanced than at other bases. Everything here is corroded by acid rain. What if the new base gets corroded too? We'd have nowhere to live when we get there—"
A team member in the car said, "No, the materials outside the new base are different from those here. This won't happen. It's absolutely safe over there."
Hearing the team members' firm words, everyone also expressed their expectations.
"I was quite worried before we left. It would be great if this were the case. I hope we can settle down there after this migration."
"I heard that all the bases there have been merged, and everyone lives together, so it shouldn't be a mess."
"How could it be chaotic? No matter which base you lived in before, since it's a military base, it's naturally managed according to the requirements of the military base."
So those who are used to military management will have no difficulty adapting, but those residents who need to adapt to the rules again will really find it difficult to adapt.
"That's true. What could we possibly not get used to? I've lost my home since the apocalypse. I'll be wherever the base is. As long as I'm alive, I can live anywhere and adapt to any kind of management."
"Yeah, as long as I'm alive, I don't care where I live."
…
After the insect rain, the natural disaster finally pressed the pause button on them, but those who were previously injured by the mutant creatures began to have fever reactions in their bodies.
Watching the residents falling ill one after another, Captain Zhou felt a headache. "No, why did they have a fever? We were bitten before, but we didn't have a fever."
"Are you sure they have a fever because they were bitten by mutants? Maybe they're just not in good health and got heatstroke from too much sun and heat." Lao Gao added, "Aren't there some people who were injured by mutants but didn't have a fever?"
"Some people were bitten first, and some were bitten later. Also, everyone's immunity is different. Judging from the current situation, I guess everyone will have a fever later." Captain Wang frowned.
The key point is that after these people had a fever, they also experienced pain all over their body. If they moved a little, they would vomit continuously. The person who started to react first died because he did not take it too seriously. They were really caught off guard.
Subsequently, more and more people developed fever symptoms, and they were forced to stay where they were.
We only have one day left to reach the new base, but now we are stuck and don’t know when we can continue our journey.
Captain Zhou and Captain Zhang privately told the four of them, "There's nothing wrong with staying here. If this disease gets contagious and enters the base, I'm afraid the new base will be completely destroyed."
By then, there would be no place to accommodate the remaining humans on the blue planet, so it would be a good thing for them to discover it halfway.
"Then what should we do next?" Lan Jin asked.
"Since we can't move, let's stay here for a few more days, at least until everyone with a fever has recovered. But we still need to send someone to inform the new base. We don't have much medicine, so we'll definitely need some help." Captain Zhou said, "Also, we haven't encountered this situation before, so we'd like to see if the new base has any solutions."
After some discussion, Captain Wang was chosen to be the one to report.
Captain Wang took some ordinary team members who were not injured, as well as some team members with special abilities, and immediately began to pack up.
Ling Jiang asked, "When are we leaving? What about the four of us? Are we going to stay here?"
Captain Zhou hadn't originally planned on letting them leave, so he took the opportunity to say, "You guys should stay here. It's too dangerous outside. Someone needs to be on guard with so many people. The journey to the new base will only take a day and a night. In such a short time, there shouldn't be any trouble."
"Okay, we'll stay here."
…
After that, Captain Wang drove off with his men.
Nothing unexpected happened during the day and night's journey. Captain Wang and his team arrived at the gate of the new base, which is the base in City A, as scheduled.
It has the same detection system as other bases. No matter what happens now, the first reaction is fever, so the first thing to monitor is the body temperature.
After checking each team member's temperature and confirming they were all normal, the people at the base began to ask, "Why are there only a few of you at the Jing City base?"
Captain Wang explained, "No, we encountered quite a few problems along the way. By the way, have the people from the official base arrived yet?"
"Not yet. What's wrong? Do you need help?"
Captain Wang recounted all his experiences along the way, as well as those before he set out. However, the reality was that they were in a new base and had never encountered such things before, so they could only ask, "What are your current demands?"
"I'm here to make a report. Captain Zhou and Captain Zhang both suspect this is contagious, so we need fever-reducing products."
Although I don’t know whether it works or not, anything that can reduce fever is essential.
…
After the team members at the new base gave some instructions to the people inside, a few minutes later, someone came out with several bags of fever-reducing supplies. They also sent a group of people back with their car. The team member said, "If you need anything, we can send someone back to get it."
Before leaving, the team member handed Captain Wang a satellite phone and said, "The satellite system malfunctioned earlier, and the weather was a bit unusual later on. We did try to contact you, but you must have been on your way, so we lost contact. Take this satellite phone with you. If you have any questions they can't answer, you can contact us directly by phone."
As for the specific location over there, there is no need to go into details. Any satellite phone has positioning. In addition, there is only one road to transfer from the Beijing base. As long as you drive slowly, you will not miss anyone.
Captain Wang put away the satellite phone and said, "Okay, we'll contact you if you need anything. If there are any abnormalities in the weather, please contact us in advance."
"yes."
