During the day and night that Captain Wang was away, those injured residents who had not yet developed a fever all started to develop a fever one after another.
When setting off, the base was well stocked with medicines. After all, they were medicines. The people above could abandon the base, but they really couldn't bear to abandon the medicines. Moreover, many medicines could no longer be produced at the moment, so the importance of medicines needed no one to tell them, and they naturally had to be taken with them.
So when they left the base, they loaded the medicine into four large trucks. Because they were afraid of accidents, they also loaded some of the common medicines into each truck.
But accidents are unpredictable. During the earthquake, two trucks loaded with medicines fell into the cracks in the ground. At that time, more than a dozen vehicles were destroyed, so the regular medicines were really not enough.
Most importantly, there were too many people who needed medicine at the moment, so after all the injured people had a fever, they were temporarily out of medicine.
Just when everyone was at a loss, Captain Wang not only brought back medicine, but also brought back people from the A City base. It really felt like a timely help.
Captain Zhou counted the medicine, confirmed the numbers, and distributed it. Meanwhile, the people at the A City base noticed there were still so many children there, and immediately asked, "Captain Zhou, there are so many children here, why don't you send them directly to the base?"
Captain Zhou quickly said, "It's not that I don't want to send them off. I know how much the children mean to me, but look at the situation now. Most of the people we brought here have fevers. How can I dare to send them off?"
Among the people who came from the A City base was a team leader named Li. Captain Li asked, "What are the current casualties? How many are sick? How many are alive?"
These numbers were recorded in real time. Captain Zhou relayed the numbers as soon as Captain Li asked. "When we left, the base had 130,000 people. After the earthquake, over 20,000 people went missing, and over 10,000 died. Over 80,000 people continued on their journey, but we encountered two rains of mutant creatures along the way, biting over 50,000 people. I grouped them together in tents, 50 people per person. Those with fever stayed on the left, and those without fever stayed on the right, to prevent infection."
As for the children, they are naturally under their noses. After all, anything can happen to anyone, but not to children.
After reporting the numbers, Captain Li frowned. They had expected the number of people at the military base, but such a small number was really hard to believe.
Captain Li asked, "I remember the number reported previously was more than double. Didn't all the people at the military base move to the Jing City military base? Why did you set out with so few people?"
Captain Zhou said, "A lot of things have happened since the acid rain, and satellite phones can't be used, so you didn't know about it."
Captain Zhou told Captain Li and others about what happened after the acid rain. To be honest, the defense measures of the military base in City A were indeed much better than those of ordinary military bases. At least its defense roof was not swallowed by the acid rain, and naturally what happened later in the underground city did not happen.
Captain Li's brows furrowed even deeper. He really didn't expect that such a thing would happen in the Beijing base.
"After you found that person, did you find out anything?"
"I can't get the answer. I've tried many methods, but I still can't get the answer. It's a one-way communication. They only take orders. As for whose orders they are taking, not even they themselves know."
So how can I ask that?
In this way, the clue will be broken again.
But for now, the things at hand are more important.
Captain Li asked, "What symptoms do these people with fever have? Do the remaining uninjured people still need to be observed? Can they be sent to the base first?"
Captain Zhou said, "Not yet. The last person with a fever was just found this morning. We need to observe the situation for another two days before we can get the final, clear data."
Captain Li nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll report this to my superiors. Also, the official base will be living in the same base with us, but there will be more people in the official base—"
If the people in the official base are lucky, it’s okay, but if the base is unlucky, the situation will only be worse than theirs.
…
But it's the end of the world, so there's no such thing as good or bad luck. Everything the people in the military base have experienced, the people in the official base have experienced as well. What's more, the people in the official base are the same. After experiencing many difficulties, after all the people in the official base were gathered together, there are still more than one million people in the base.
But at a time like this, the more people there are, the more dangerous it is.
The road on the military base experienced an earthquake, but the people at the official base experienced a tsunami. Luckily, they were almost out of the tsunami zone, otherwise, the people at the official base would have been wiped out.
But she just said that they were almost leaving the area, not that they had already left. So, dozens of cars at the back of the team were still swept into the sea by the tsunami.
Without even having the chance to call for help, he disappeared forever in the convoy.
When a tsunami hit, even if a companion's car was swept into the sea, no one dared to rescue him. After all, the sea...
It can devour everything.
For the safety of the people in their car, everyone could only watch the car sink to the bottom of the sea, and then they drove away.
…
After escaping the tsunami, the misfortune did not stop, and they also encountered a rain of mutant creatures.
There are many people in the official base, but a large number of people does not mean a large number of people with special abilities, and naturally it does not mean how strong the special abilities of the people with special abilities are. As a result, after two rains, the number of people injured here is countless.
Let’s put it this way, among the team at the official base, few people are in good health, so it’s not that they didn’t come now, but that they parked the car halfway and couldn’t come at all.
Moreover, at this moment, as long as it is not in the base, it can be called the wilderness. As they move forward, people die along the way, but the dead cannot be just thrown away. Moreover, throwing the bodies of the residents in the wilderness will inevitably chill the hearts of the residents.
Therefore, the people at the base would first gather them together, and then find land where they could dig and bury them all. As a result, there were so many dead people that their journey naturally took some time.
They and Captain Li and others were naturally unaware of these situations. They just watched the situation in the Jing City base getting worse and worse, and they could already foresee what the situation was like for them in the official base.
