Chapter Seventy-Three: The Dungeon
Fu Huaqing hesitated, but still told the truth.
"She's out on a mission this time, but ...... I can't reach her. ”
The reason why Fu Huaqing said this is because in such a world, there are only three possibilities for losing contact, one is that the signal is not good, the second is that she disconnected herself, and the third is because she died unexpectedly.
The probability of the second possibility is not very high, so the probability that she is still alive is 50%, but if there are masters around her, then her chances of survival should be better.
Ye Xiaobai clenched his fists, a trace of uneasiness appeared in his heart, he understood what Fu Huaqing meant.
This damn world, damn alien creatures.
………………
There is no superfluous color in the underground world, almost all the buildings are gray, the difference between the whole base and the bottom is up and down is hundreds of meters, the whole is like being drilled out by a giant drill bit, and its diameter has reached two or three hundred meters, in the center of the giant drill hole is erected a dense air bridge, and the stone wall of the giant drill hole is inlaid with dense adult-sized small doors, almost all the doors are silver gray, only a small part is painted with different colors, and those colored doors are obviously much larger than the silver gray doors.
The underground base is not dark, but very bright, Ye Xiaobai will not feel bored when he walks on the air bridge, it seems that there is a complete ecological circulation system here, and the problems of light, water and oxygen have been solved.
Ye Xiaobai was secretly surprised, such a base made him rekindle hope for mankind in his heart.
"Brother Fu, can you help me find someone, her name is Qiu Yan, she is my mother, if I guess correctly, she should be in this base."
Ye Xiaobai was a little apprehensive in her heart, she originally wanted to find Li Qiannan, because she would definitely know her mother's whereabouts, but now she can only ask Fu Huaqing.
Fu Huaqing patted Ye Xiaobai on the shoulder, called Chen Xuhao over, and asked him to go to the control center to check the personnel information.
"Don't worry, she's safe as long as she's in this base, but... If she were an ordinary person, life might not be good. ”
Ye Xiaobai was stunned, how much is this "not very good"?
His heart twitched, Fu Huaqing knew that he was in a hurry, and explained to him, it turned out that due to the invasion of alien creatures, the human government had been disrupted and reorganized, and now the highest administrative body of the human race was the human alliance government, and due to the special period, one of the policies in the human alliance government was the law of the strong, and all resources were inclined to the strong.
That is to say, every ordinary person in the underground base must do the hard work of maintaining the operation of the base in exchange for the right to survive in the base, as for the capable and their families, they do not have to do that kind of physical work, but the capable person must go out of the task, and the task can be completed in exchange for the rights to live in the base.
But generally speaking, the living conditions of the families of the able people are generally better than those of ordinary people, at least they can ensure the normal three meals a day and sufficient water sources.
Although Ye Xiaobai guessed that Li Qiannan should not treat his mother badly, he still couldn't help but clench his fists when he heard this, and Yuan Yuan's face was not good when he heard this, after all, she is now helpless, has no special abilities, and has a daughter, she used to be clothed and fed, and she has never done any physical work, so she subconsciously looked at Ye Xiaobai at the moment, if you want to live a better life in the last days, it is a good choice to rely on a person with strong ability.
"Perhaps, I can fight for it."
A different thought flashed through her heart.
At this time, as soon as the elevator door to this floor opened, Chen Xuhao and the two of them walked towards the covered bridge on this floor, Ye Xiaobai looked at the figure on Chen Xuhao's right, his eyes were slightly red, and his body trembled slightly, he walked over and hugged her gently:
"Mom!"
Qiu Yan's eyes were already full of tears at this moment, she patted Ye Xiaobai's head, and kept saying:
"It's good to be alive... It's good to be alive......"
After hugging her for dozens of seconds, Ye Xiaobai let go of her, and Dong Qin, who was on Chen Xuhao's left, had already run to Yuan Yuan's side, holding her hand and looking at the surrounding environment curiously. Ye Xiaobai looked at Qiu Yan seriously and found that she showed no signs of suffering except for her haggard look, and the heart that she had been holding slowly eased.
"Mom, they're all our friends."
Ye Xiaobai pointed at Fu Huaqing and the others and said, after everyone greeted Qiu Yan one after another, Fu Huaqing took them to a wide canteen by elevator, and after letting everyone find a place to sit down, he took out a small orange card and called a waiter, and as soon as the waiter saw the orange card, the look on his face became respectful.
"Grab me five cold beers and get a table of food by the way."
Fu Huaqing smiled and said to him.
"Okay, please wait."
At the time of eating, Fu Huaqing and others and Ye Xiaobai popularized the relevant knowledge in the "new" era, the reason why it is said to be a "new era" is because the social and physical functions of human beings have completely changed, the boundaries between countries have been infinitely narrowed, the difference between people is no longer measured by money, and the size of a person's combat power determines his social status.
Since the surface is no longer suitable for human survival, all underground bases are a paradise for survivors, but due to the limited space of the underground base, not all survivors have the opportunity to be accepted by the base, and the underground base will give priority to those who are capable, followed by soldiers and their families, followed by elites from all walks of life in society, and then to ordinary people, if this order of acceptance is used as a criterion, it means that human beings are divided into four levels, of which the capable have become the upper level of the pyramid of this level.
If you want to get basic living security in the base, everyone must use their own efforts to obtain an exchange point, this exchange point is equivalent to the currency of the end times, one of the exchange points can be exchanged for a basic food, fifty exchange points can be exchanged for a cold weapon with rough workmanship, ordinary people can generally get 2 exchange points a day through hard work.
When he said this, Fu Huaqing's voice suddenly became much quieter:
"Let me tell you a good news that I overheard, it is said that above the human alliance government, there is also a God of War Council, and every member of the God of War Council has an ability of A-level or above, and it is said that the chairman of the God of War Council is an S-level ability!"
"Ahh
Hearing this, Cheng Kai and Zhang Yinggang couldn't help but exclaim, because according to the power system delineated by the Human Scientist Alliance in the new era, the new human race has five major ability levels, namely D, C, B, A, and S-level abilities, it is said that there are higher levels above the S level, and they are at the lowest level of ability, but just with the power they currently have, it already feels incredible, and the power that is several levels higher than them, how powerful it should be!
Ye Xiaobai was also secretly surprised, because if according to Li Qiannan's previous statement, he was only a C-level ability, then there was a B-level above the C-level, and he had only reached the A-level, and there were still three lower, middle and upper ranks in each level, even if he was already a C-level upper-level ability, there was still a big gap from the A-level...... If the God of War Council really exists, the future of humanity does not seem so pessimistic.
