Chapter 1: The Partition of the Earth
In the year 2112 of the Earth calendar, a full hundred years have passed since the end of the world in 2012, and human beings are still living under the threat of zombies, but the resources that can sustain human existence have become less and less.
The oppression of the humans in Xincun by the major bases has become more and more serious, and it has reached the level of goose plucking, but the surviving humans are still struggling to suppress their anger, after all, the base still gives shelter to humans.
Today, teams of Adepts are still out of the base one after another, fighting for their own survival.
However, today's wild is particularly dangerous, in addition to zombies, mutant animals and plants are extremely irritable, even the usually milder mutant animals will bark their teeth at humans who walk too close, and the milder mutant plants in the past are eager to try to draw people.
The leader of one of the Adeptus squads, after a difficult battle, beckoned his men to take stock of the day's gains, intending to go back first if they had reached the basic standards, because the situation in the field was not quite right today.
The men had no objection to this order, and they also sensed the approaching danger.
Some zombie crystal nuclei were cleaned by water-based abilities, and edible mutant beasts were also divided into suitable sizes and collected by spatial abilities.
When the captain saw that they were finished, he took the lead in the direction of the entrance of the base, and the rest of the team members followed in unison, and at the same time, they did not relax their vigilance and were ready to fight at any time.
At the gate of the base, hand over the crystal nucleus that needs to be paid today, and at the same time, the captain also got the news of returning to the family territory as soon as possible.
The entrance of the base is a place where information exchanges are more frequent, and all forces in the base have eyeliner distribution, just for the collection and transmission of news.
The captain handed over a spar that belonged to his share, and quickened his pace to meet his family's station.
The watchman at the gate of the base smiled tacitly, which can be regarded as a conventional cover-up.
The captain returned to his residence, walked towards the conference room, and saw that the elders of the family were also alarmed, and he was a little surprised, it seems that this time the matter is not small, but there is still no change on his face, and he sat down in the place left for him.
The current patriarch motioned for the person in charge of monitoring in the family to begin the explanation.
The light screen shows the crustal activity of the last week very clearly, and the focus is compared with the previous crustal situation, even people who don't know anything about geography know that something big is about to happen.
Because except for the strong reaction of the earth's crust in the year when the end of the world just came, it has been in a state of complete calm since then, which is calmer than before the end of the world, and the surviving geologists have put it down after studying it for a period of time without success, and only some ancient families have not given up monitoring, and the Lei family is one of the most concerned.
It is also thanks to this caution that the Lei family can now be the first to detect the abnormality and react in advance.
The captain's name is Lei Zhen, the eldest son of the patriarch, and after reading this, he was the first to raise questions: "Do we want to give the base a wake-up?" ”
The patriarch glanced at his son, he was good at everything, but his value orientation was a bit high, although he would choose the family when the base and the family asked him to choose, but in this case, he would seem too saintly, I really don't know who he looks like.
However, as a father, he is still more satisfied with his son's affection and righteousness, after all, this kind of affection also applies to the family, although ruthless and unrighteous people can survive better in the last days, but it is still easy to make people frightened.
The patriarch didn't have time to speak, and the second uncle of the Lei family, who was sitting next to him, took the lead in speaking: "The data has been sent, believe it or not." ”
Lei Zhen didn't speak again, although he was a little kinder, but he didn't have the kind of heart to save the world, and if he survived in the last days, no matter how much compassion he had, he would be consumed a lot.
After seeing the changes in the earth's crust, the patriarch asked, "What do you think is going to happen?" ”
The oldest surviving elder of the Lei family spoke: "It is estimated that the last days will worsen, reduce the time in the field during this time, and wait for the crust to stabilize before normal activities." ”
The patriarch had no objections, nodded in agreement and passed on the order.
The Lei family's ability team all returned to the Lei family's station before sunset, and the Lei family's station fell into calm earlier than usual.
The base data clerk who received the data dutifully handed over the data to the leader, but after the end of the world, the leaders of the base only focused on their own interests, and for this kind of trivial matter, they would only go when they were asked by their superiors, and they should not be expected to pay attention to it.
At midnight, the base felt a shock unsuspectingly, shaking the drunken ruler of the base from his bed to the ground.
The sobered rulers summoned the convoy to their side, and only after they had a sense of security did they let people find out what was going on.
This is thanks to the scientists who survived the last days, in the last hundred years, human science and technology have still developed, at least the earthquake resistance of buildings has improved a lot, and no one has lost their lives in their sleep because of the earthquake.
The conference room of the Lei family lit up again after the vibration, and the monitoring personnel gave feedback on the situation again, and everyone in the Lei family looked at the cracks in the light screen, the shadows that flashed in the cracks from time to time and the voices that came, with solemn expressions.
When the patriarch is not sure what is going on, he can only let the monitor continue to monitor first, and report the situation immediately, so as to respond to all changes.
After the patriarch dispersed the meeting, Lei Zhen was dragged to the library by the Great Elder and asked him to help find something for himself.
Although the Great Elder's health is not bad, his eyes are still a little bad, so when he needs to find something, he prefers to support the juniors to help, and he is often caught as an eye for the Great Elder.
However, Lei Zhen didn't have any complaints, and he could ask questions while helping the Great Elder, which was an opportunity that everyone else in the clan was envious.
This time, the Great Elder asked him to bring out the thickest-looking family history to see if there were any relevant records.
The Great Elder placed the book on his desk and carefully flipped it up from the front, while reading it carefully with a magnifying glass.
The Great Elder didn't like reading glasses and felt that his ears hurt when he wore them, so he usually brought his own magnifying glass to read books.
Sometimes, history is still very useful, whether it is official history or wild history.
The Great Elder still found something useful from the family history, it is rumored that the fierce beasts and even some mythical beasts that were killed by humans in ancient times were not completely dead, but were sealed to the ground, and the powers that sealed them did not have the hope of completely exterminating them, if humans damaged the earth too much, they would be given life again, and then it would depend on the ability and choice of human beings, after all, they were also the protagonists of the earth.
