Chapter 1: The Present Situation of the Last Days
I'm an NPC in the end times.
That's right, don't be surprised, it's NPCs.
I'm sure everyone has played the game, and unlike the NPCs in the game, I have my own thoughts, behaviors, and can act freely, and you can also use me as a plug-in. After all, I'm a plug-in level NPC.
And as for the world I live in, it is the last days.
This is a world where the human spirit is in a constant state of tension, and my planet has given me the task of guarding this place and protecting the people here.
In the last days, human beings are no longer the masters of the world, but have become "prey".
A hundred years ago, when the human world was at its peak, ordinary animal food could no longer meet their needs, and scientists began to study new species. It was in this study that the failure of the experiment gave birth to a new type of "animal" - two-winged, eight-legged, compound eyes, not afraid of water, fast moving, and very resistant to heat. There is no way to eradicate it completely, and it is reproducing at an extremely rapid rate. As a result, the human world was slowly occupied by this new type of species, and its species slowly derived mutants. Humans call it the "multi-legged compound lizard", and the extremely mutated species "giant compound lizard".
The scary thing about this species is that once it comes into contact with human skin, it will immediately adsorb, which is a bit like a "leech", but ten times more terrifying than a leech!
They suck blood, but they also bleed.
They absorb human blood, and then through the "filtration and screening" of mutated cells in their own body, and then mixed with body fluids, and are discharged directly into the human body with the hair follicle opening that adsorbs the skin.
Once this "virion" enters the human body, it will quickly kill the body's immune cells, destroy red blood cells, and continue to divide and evolve.
Eventually, the human will gradually be assimilated and become a "giant lizard".
This species can be said to have no weaknesses, and the only thing that can temporarily inactivate them is to disperse them with an extremely pungent taste. It is only to disperse, because if the taste is not strong enough or people are not careful, it is easy to be "targeted", and the end result is to become their kind.
In order to reduce the likelihood of being attacked by this species, human homes have been moved from the ground to the ground.
The once dominant continent is now confined to the depths of the sun. How sad this is!
If not greed, not satisfied with the status quo...... How could it be......
My mission is to get humanity back to its home garden and stand in the sun.
………………………………………
Early in the morning, I came to the outskirts of the human base.
The site is large and surrounded by metallic glass, a new type of metallic glass with trace amounts of palladium, a hard metal element with an ultra-high volumetric shear rate, which counteracts the inevitable fragility of the glass material.
Robust and durable, it can effectively prevent ground vibration caused by a large number of mutants. Moreover, it has good lighting, because of its light transmittance, it can properly introduce the solar light source and grow vegetables underground.
It stands to reason that since human beings can build an "underground home", they can develop and survive underground.
The idea is beautiful, the reality is skinny.
Even though humans have established underground bases, and even though they have made efforts to reduce the chance of contact with mutants, they still inevitably go out to search for resources and increase supplies.
After all, the underground is developing too slowly, and the supply of resources is not responsive.
This inevitably requires someone to go out to collect resources to meet the needs of people in the underground home.
Here I met Ye Hao, who is one of the captains of the base area, as well as his subordinates Qin Feng and Chongming.
They are very grateful for me, although I have not helped them in anything, but in their eyes, I am the light of the world, their hope.
"I'll show you around." Ye Hao said to me with a smile.
I nodded, and followed him through their underground home.
On the way, I also met two female captains, namely the two sisters Lingshuang and Lingshu. They are mainly responsible for the distribution of materials, the supply of resource chains, and the management of growing areas.
At lunchtime, Ye Hao took me to know the "food" here - a strange food that looks like bread but not like bread, and smells of butter.
Ye Hao said that it was a nutritional product they had researched, although it didn't taste very good, but the nutritional value was very high, and it was very satiety. It's a "luxury" here.
What is luxury, in the last days, is not money, not jewelry, not clothing, but food and water.
The lack of materials, the sudden mutation of human beings, in these last days, people live in fear every day, as if they are on the edge of the abyss, as if walking on thin ice.
After listening to Ye Hao's words, I probably have a general understanding of life here.
The first thing to be solved is the problem of human food and clothing.
