Chapter 70: Untitled

Chapter 70 is untitled

"I'm from Aurora Station, I've been stuck in Antarctica for a long time, and I finally crossed the South Pole and climbed through the Transantarctic Mountains to get here. I wonder why we suddenly lost touch with the outside world and what had happened out there all these years. Li Jie explained helplessly.

"Have you been trapped at Aurora Station? How did you survive? OMG! Li Wen looked at Li Jie in disbelief: "This is a miracle!" ”

……

With Li Wen as a bridge and medium of communication, communication can go on smoothly.

Li Jie learned that the middle-aged woman in front of her was actually an official of the United Nations, who finished high school in China, was admitted to a prestigious school in the Bald Eagle Country with excellent grades, and successfully interviewed for the United Nations headquarters after graduation.

Think about yourself...... Ay!

waved away this messy thought and continued to listen to Li Wen's introduction.

"They are from the international affairs department of the Red Lion Security Company of the Bald Eagle Country, well, in layman's terms, they can be understood as mercenaries."

"I'm really sorry for their behavior before, we've been cornered......" Speaking of this, Li Wen's expression darkened, obviously, the situation in front of her was beyond her ability to bear.

Maybe because she talked a little more, she began to cough again, coughing violently, the whole person could barely straighten her waist, Nathan saw this, hurriedly went to pour hot water, tried to feed Li Wen, tossed for a long time, Li Wen slowly calmed down, wheezing violently, her face was abnormally pale, lying in Nathan's arms, wanting to say something, but obviously exhausted.

"Okay, okay, you rest first, and we'll talk when you're better!" Li Jie hurriedly persuaded.

"Hey, friend, we're breathing at the door." Joel next to him patted Li Jie on the shoulder, although Li Jie's English was very bad, he could understand the general meaning even if he guessed, nodded, and got up to go out.

Perhaps out of guilt for Li Jie, or for the sake of Li Jie's previous cart of supplies, Eric took out a black iron bucket that had been burned with charcoal from the house, threw a few pieces of wood in it, and placed it in an open space outside the house, where the snow had melted and a layer of ice was formed, through which the blackened ground could be seen, and it was obvious that they often roasted fires here.

It's just that Li Jie looked at the few wooden blocks and the small flames that could be controlled, and he was very suspicious of the heating effect of this bonfire.

"Wait, wait, I, go, there." After gesturing for a long time, Li Jie walked to his car.

"Hey, why did he go, get a Christmas present?" Joel watched Li Jie leave and asked Eric suspiciously.

"Who told you not to learn Chinese?" Eric shrugged his shoulders and fiddled with the stove with an iron bar, neither letting the fire go out, but also controlling the rate at which the wood burned to keep it burning as long as it could.

Wood is a rare resource in Antarctica, and as time goes by, it becomes more and more scarce, and in previous years it was possible to build bonfires outside, but now it is difficult to get wood.

Any combustible, plastic, chemical fiber, rubber, wood block, everything, as long as it can be burned, is one of the materials that the survivors are fighting for.

Li Jie strode to the car, opened the door of the trailer, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen planks appeared, and then they were moved out, tied with a piece of rope, and dragged on the ground towards the place of the wooden house.

"Eric! Am I dazzled? Looking at Li Jie's movements dozens of meters away, Joel's eyes widened suddenly!

"......" Eric ignored him completely, and looked at the large bundle of wood that Li Jie got from the car in amazement—why didn't he find it just now? I found it and got it back!

"Still not going to help!?" Eric kicked Joel's ass, Joel stumbled, came back to his senses, quickly squeezed out a little smile on his face, and rushed over to Li Jie: "Hey! Friends of China! I'm here to help you!! ”

Watching this handsome blonde guy rush all the way over, the blonde hair blown up by the Antarctic wind fluttered in the wind...... Why is it so similar to the golden retriever in the community, especially the virtue of licking his face......

Joel, who was smiling all over his face, enthusiastically held the firewood in his arms, gave Li Jie a big smile, and ran back.

Li Jie: ......

The bonfire quickly went up, and Li Jie noticed that Joel had a small piece of wood there, and his face was full of excitement and went into the cave not far away.

Squinting slightly, Li Jie turned his head, his face remained silent, as if he didn't care at all. However, in an instant, he thought of a lot

The previous voice was obviously infected, and judging from the voice, it is likely that there was more than one.

So now that we are getting wood in, it must be to keep the infected warm...... Yes, after all, the infected person is just infected with germs, attacking people in a frenzy, destroying the function of the brain, making people lose their intelligence, like a beast, but the body is always a human body, with all the signs of a human body. It's going to be cold, it's going to be hungry.

Well, after years of evolution, humans have long since lost their hair and are unable to adapt to the extreme weather in Antarctica, even if they become infected, they cannot change this.

If you don't get enough food, warm clothing, or use fire to maintain the temperature, even the infected won't live long in this place!

So...... Combined with what Li Wen just said, they have been here for a few years, so it seems that the infected people in the cave have either just been infected or, have been raised for a long time.

It's so hard to be yourself, and you still have to raise infected people, plus their current condition...... There is only one possibility, these infected people hiding in the caves, are very important to them, very important!

As the wood was added, the bonfire gradually rose and the flames licked the wood, and the half-human high bonfire baked the snow near the flames, and Joel soon returned to sit on the edge of the campfire with Richeric to roast the fire.

After about half an hour, the coughing in the room finally subsided, and after a while, Nathan's voice came from inside: "Hey, come in!" ”

The three of them hurriedly got up and entered the house. Although there is a bonfire, the face of the fire has been roasted by the fire, and the cold and biting wind behind him is blown by the Antarctic wind.

"Li Wen, your situation doesn't seem to be very good." Li Jie looked at Li Wen, whose face was pale, groaned for a while, and said slowly.

"Well, it may be caused by a long-term lack of vitamins, and without supplies, the survivors here are struggling to survive. What's next for you? Li Wen avoided talking about her physical condition, and asked Li Jie instead.

"I originally planned to go to Murdomac Station, Murdomac is the largest scientific research station in Antarctica, I remember that there are 3 airports, and there are probably icebreakers or cruise ships, and I want to go back to China!" Li Jie was outspoken about his purpose.

"Go home!?" Li Wen exclaimed, causing Nathan next to him to be cautious.

"Why go back to China!? Now there can be no plane willing to leave Antarctica! This is the only 'pure land'! ”

"What do you mean?" Li Jie looked puzzled: "I was accidentally dropped into the ice gap, but in the end I didn't wait for rescue, and I struggled to escape back to the Aurora Station, but I found that there was no one left, and the satellite phone could not be used, I stayed for more than 3 years before I finally escaped, what happened?" Li Jie looked puzzled.

"Oh God!" Li Wen exclaimed, translating Li Jie's words to Nathan and the three, and the three of them also looked at Li Jie in disbelief, and it was too unfortunate to call Li Jie even better.

"But maybe it's good luck!" Nathan shrugged his shoulders and disagreed, if he really hid in the South Pole for more than 3 years, he would avoid seeing his relatives and friends become that kind of man-eating monster, thinking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Eric and Nathan, and sighed secretly in his heart.

At the same time, he also subconsciously said that Li Jie's words were not true, however, after all, it was just a meeting in Pingshui, and he robbed a cart of supplies from Li Jie, and Li Jie was alone, and it was understandable that he didn't want to tell the truth, maybe there were still materials hidden somewhere, and some precautions were normal.

Li Wen comforted Li Jie with sympathy on her face, and told her about the changes over the years - in fact, she didn't know as much as Li Jie, but she mainly talked about the experience of their group.

Nathan, along with Eric and Joel, all served in the navy of the Bald Eagle Country, and after retiring from the army, they joined the international affairs department of the Red Lion Security Company of the Bald Eagle Country, and to put it bluntly, became an international mercenary.

The team once went deep into Somalia to carry out a mission, and at the same time rescued Li Wen who was trapped there, and helped Li Wen rescue about a dozen children and send them out of the war zone safely, so the two became acquainted and eventually walked together.

However, as the relationship between the two grows, they decide to get married. It's just that with the disclosure of the relationship, the nature of Nathan's work is also known to Li Wen's superiors, who think that if Li Wen and Nathan get married, Li Wen will have to leave her current job because of the particularity of Nathan's work department.

Li Wen insisted on marrying the person she loved, and also lost her career. Nathan took a long leave of absence after his marriage, and traveled the world with Li Wen, who lost his job, as well as Eric and Joel.

However, when they arrived in Antarctica, prehistoric germs were breaking out all over the world, and the infection rate was unexpected, and although various countries implemented entry controls and banned entry through various routes, it was still too late, and the prehistoric germs that could turn people into ogres quickly swept the world!

All the research stations in Antarctica have also been left in Antarctica after receiving sufficient supplies - on the one hand, to prevent the possible germs in Antarctica from flowing into the territory of various countries, because Antarctica has long become a world-famous scenic spot, and there is an endless stream of tourists who come here every year, who knows if there are any germ carriers; On the other hand, it is also forbidden for others to go to the South Pole in any form to prevent the introduction of germs into the South Pole!

Antarctica was originally a wild place, there was very little communication with the outside world, and sufficient supplies stabilized people's hearts, however, a year later, a sudden nuclear war destroyed the hopes of some people, and almost all nuclear countries participated in the war!

"Why!? How could a nuclear war suddenly break out!? Are the militaries of various countries crazy? Li Jie couldn't help but interrupt Li Wen's words when he heard this, and exclaimed in disbelief.

"No one knows what's going on, it's just ......" Speaking of this, Li Wen glanced at Nathan, Nathan shrugged his shoulders and said: "There is nothing that can't be said, I got in touch with my former comrades-in-arms, an unknown mysterious organization, after a period of time after the outbreak of germs, gradually rebelled against many high-level people, they claimed that prehistoric germs are God's punishment for mankind, and the existence of nuclear weapons is a blasphemy against God, and must be purified in order to obtain redemption...... Anyway, by joining this organization, you can exempt yourself and your family from this prehistoric germ and not be infected. ”

"And then ...... Nuclear war broke out! Nathan said with a dark face, and both Joel and Eric were silent.

"Next, the winter time of the year of the war came two months early and left one month late, and the entire Antarctic continent was shrouded in polar night for most of the year, probably because the nuclear bomb changed the climate...... Because of this, many creatures in Antarctica have been devastated due to sudden changes in the environment...... At the same time, many parts of the world are contaminated with radioactive materials, and many sea areas are not suitable for navigation, so you want to return to China...... It's almost impossible, every big city is ruined, there are no airports, no fuel, no one can send you back. Li Wen said with a sigh.

Li Jie was silent, countless thoughts appeared in his mind, and he judged, is this inexplicable nuclear war related to himself? However, I haven't treated many people, except for the people around me, only Tucker City has shown its ability, and some people have been treated, mainly soldiers, scientists, or children!

……

"Where has the Chinese mainland been attacked?" Li Jie looked up and asked.

"I don't know, there's no media to report on these things anymore, and the six of us are stuck here with the tour group, and a lot of things are learned through the radio - you know, there are radio enthusiasts all over the world, and they've been exchanging messages with their own radio stations after the end of the world. After nuclear war, there are few signals. Nathan said, Li Wen translated.

Li Jie nodded, and the six of them ...... And in front of them, apparently, there are only four, and the other two ... Li Jie's mind came to the cave next to the wooden house, and he didn't ask any more questions. At the same time, I also understood that no matter where there is a war, no one can know because there is no media coverage.

"Can you still get a signal now?" Li Jie asked.

"No, we don't have electricity." This time, there was no need for Nathan to say, Li Wen smiled bitterly.
