Chapter 62: The World After the Disaster

Because it was walking, Chen Xin's speed was not fast.

He carries a trekking pole in his hand, which can help him clear obstacles while being a helper.

Although he was walking along the road, the side of the road was not as clean and smooth as it used to be.

Because of the rain, the charred trees on the hillsides on both sides of the road were washed down by the rain and piled up on the side of the road, and mud, gravel and other things were mixed in, and if you were not careful on the road, it was easy to step on it, kick it, or even trip over.

Chen Xin did not light up his flashlight, in addition to saving use, but also to avoid being discovered by others.

Although most of the survivors are now in the shelter, and there should be no one outside, it is difficult to guarantee that no one is staying in the shelter.

He just came out to find out about the current situation, plus to collect a little resources, and the pistol was only for self-defense, and he didn't want to cause any trouble.

Chen Xin continued to walk along the road, although the sky was dark, but it was not really impossible to see at all, and he kept walking along the road, so as not to deviate from the direction.

"I don't know if that supermarket has been emptied?" Chen Xin looked up at the front, hoping that the supermarket he wanted to go to had not been emptied, and there were still materials left behind.

Although Chen Xin also knew that this was unlikely, he still had some expectations in his heart.

The apocalyptic natural disaster of meteorite impact is not like the disaster of Resident Evil, the kind of disaster that erupts almost instantaneously and destroys the government institutions of most countries is actually very difficult to happen in reality, because all countries actually have corresponding emergency plans for such emergencies.

Knowing three months in advance that a meteorite was about to hit the earth, in addition to the series of countermeasures before the meteorite fell, governments around the world actually did not ignore how to resist the disaster caused by the meteorite after it did fall.

The country of Yan can be said to be the country that has done the best job in responding to the meteorite disaster, whether it is the construction of shelters or the collection and storage of materials.

In three months, most of the materials on the market in Yanguo have actually been collected by the government or the people.

However, this kind of thing is not absolute, although three months is enough time to collect most of the materials in the world, there will still be some materials left.

It's hard to say what you can find, but if you're willing to dig deeper, you'll still find a lot of things.

What Chen Xin wants to go to now is a fairly large supermarket near his home, where Chen Xin used to drive to buy vegetables and other daily necessities, and Chen Xin wanted to go there to see if he could find some daily necessities.

Although I don't have to worry about eating and drinking now, things like toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels and underwear are not unprepared, but it is always good to collect more, because no one knows how long this last day will last, and what the supply will be.

And Chen Xin didn't pin all his hopes on that supermarket, there were actually about four or five small supermarkets on the way to the supermarket, as well as some shops, and these places were the places that Chen Xin mainly wanted to search.

After all, these smaller stores have a better chance of having supplies left than the big supermarkets.

Because the distance was not very far, Chen Xin soon arrived at his first destination, a convenience store opened at the entrance of a residential complex.

Although Chen Xin's home is located on the outskirts of the city, the urban development of Yanguo in recent years, especially the real estate speculation, has been very hot, and even the suburbs are gradually building communities, which has greatly improved the possibility that Chen Xin can search for materials.

In fact, if he was willing to go door-to-door to collect, how could a residential community be able to collect a lot of useful supplies.

But for Chen Xin, he can exchange for supplies through the channels of the SWAT team, and he has the big killer weapon of the system, so he doesn't need to collect materials like this.

So Chen Xin's goal is just to find a store at the entrance of the community to see if he can find something left.

Of course, Chen Xin didn't have much hope for whether he could find the supplies, not to mention the looting before the disaster, even the fire after the disaster burned everywhere, and how many things could be left was completely a matter of luck.

Coming to the door of the community, Chen Xin couldn't help but sigh.

It's not that he hasn't been to the community in front of him before, because it is not far from his home, Chen Xin used to come back here occasionally to buy things.

He has the impression that there are a lot of trees planted in this community, and the greening is very good, even if he just stands at the entrance of the community, he can see the lush trees in the community.

There is a bronze statue at the entrance of the community, although it is very cheesy to look like a Wall Street cow, but as a decoration, the omen and meaning are actually not bad.

It's just that now all the trees have been burned into a pile of coke, and the whole community can no longer see any greenery, and the copper bull at the door has been burned completely, revealing the fact that it is actually hollow inside.

As for the row of storefronts at the entrance of the community, they did not escape the same fate as the charred storefronts in the city, and there was a mess after the fire everywhere.

Especially at this time, it is still raining lightly, and under the rain wash, black sewage flows everywhere.

Even if the sky is dark and you can't see anything clearly, under this drizzle, you can still feel an indescribable desolation.

"Human ...... It's really fragile. Chen Xin stood at the gate of the community, looking at the deformation burned on the original location of the copper cow, and could no longer recognize the original "copper cow", and couldn't help but spit out such a sentence.

Human civilization certainly seems to be powerful and prosperous, but in the face of this apocalyptic natural disaster, how much difference can human civilization have from this burnt copper bull?

Left and right are just human civilization can still survive, and this bronze bull has turned into a puddle that cannot be seen as it is.

However, the vitality of human beings is very tenacious, although human civilization has been defeated almost overnight, but as long as we have not perished, there will be a day when we will be able to rebuild all this.

In the lowest era of human beings, the population was once only a few thousand, but they still survived the disaster and established a prosperous human civilization, so Chen Xin is not worried about the extinction of human beings.

Even if modern humans are no longer the survivable ancestors of ancient times, and their bodies have become weak and unaccustomed to the wild environment, the Homo erectus with the brightest mind of the Blue Star has never relied on strength to become the top of the food chain.
