Chapter 61: After the Disaster

After the meteorite rain, almost 2,000 people died directly at the rock base, more than 10,000 were injured, and almost 5,000 people were seriously injured. Extinguishing fires, digging up rubble, rescuing the wounded, the base is busy. Wang Haoren knows that there will be another such meteorite rain, about next month.

There is no way to avoid such a natural disaster, almost all the satellites in space have been destroyed, most of the electronic equipment has failed, and it is impossible to intercept the meteorite rain with missiles. After this wave of meteorite rain, all satellites and remaining electronic equipment were lost, and the missiles became decorations, and they could not be launched at all. Those long-range nuclear bombs, the threat to the base is gone. Before, some people were angry at the rock base and coerced the rock base to submit, but they didn't dare to act. Now there will be no such situation, without the threat of nuclear bombs, with the strength of the rock base, there is no fear of anyone at all.

There was a reminder from Wang Haoren at the Panshi base, all the power was turned off, and the hydropower station stopped working, but there was not much loss of power equipment. The vehicles in the base have long since removed the batteries, and the electronic systems have been retained. The Panshi base was formerly a military training base, and apart from the more than 300 missiles that Wang Haoren brought with him last time, there were only a few missile launchers for training. The missiles in the inventory are all trainer bombs with no explosive power. It's not useful at all, and it's always left in the warehouse.

Wang Haoren also tried to look for these heavy weapons outside, but he knew that where these weapons were available, they had basically been built into survival bases, and they could not be obtained at all. There are quite a few missile launchers at the merged bases, but there are not many missiles. Heavy weapons are a powerful weapon for base defense, and machine gun bullets made of armor-piercing metal are extremely powerful, but the ultra-long range of missiles and the loud sound of explosions can lure zombies and mutants away from a distance.

The advent of armor-piercing metal has given firearms a new lease on life. However, the ever-evolving zombies, mutant beasts, and mutant insects need metal with higher and higher armor-piercing values to make weapons. Metals that consume like firearms are a bit out of place. The bullet that was just made, after a while, couldn't penetrate the zombie's evolved defense.

But firearms are a deterrent to the warriors at the base. The troops at the Rock Base have also been re-issued with guns, and they are patrolling with guns in armor, which makes people look like they are out of order. Imagine a general in armor with a broadsword at his waist, a Type 13 automatic rifle in his hand, and some grenades hanging from his body.

The medicines that Wang Haoren had brought back from time to time in the past came in handy with those medical devices. So that the wounded were treated in a timely manner. The improvement of people's physical fitness, as long as there is still a breath, can basically be rescued, thus greatly reducing the mortality rate.

No one can blame this as a natural disaster, not to mention that the base also issued an early warning in time, so that everyone can avoid it in time, and everyone has more confidence in the rock base. For a month, metal sheets were laid on the pavement of the base. The mutants control thick metal plates that cover the pavement of the base. The next time the meteorite rain returns, the dungeon won't be so easy to destroy. It's not that Wang Haoren didn't think about it before, some things happened and then said, and others were easier to accept. Those important departments, such as research institutes, metal factories, and family quarters, have long been metal structures.

The meteorite rain came again, but this time there was not much loss except for the death of a few unlucky ghosts and the rock base that was hit by eight meteorite fragments. The damaged area was repaired, and everything was calm again at the Rock Base. More than a month later, Wang Haoren was a little bored in the rock base before he went out to continue his cultivation.

In the base, the mutant dogs tamed by the Huang brothers have now grown to more than seventy, and all of them are the size of cars. There are more than 100 mutant cows, all of which are as big as bulldozers, and they are the main transportation force of the base. But there are so many people in the rock base, and they can't be busy with these alone.

The snow is thick, and it is very inconvenient to go out and walk, so you can use skis or skis to get around. However, the martial artist has a strong physical fitness, and he glides very fast, not much slower than driving. The main thing is that the transportation of goods is more troublesome, without vehicles, how much can be pulled by manpower alone?

A mutated chicken and duck, all the size of a motorcycle, after killing, if they are all taken away, it will greatly affect the speed of travel, so without vehicles, most of the prey can only be discarded. In order to maximize profits, the hunting team can only take the most valuable part and take it away, and the rest has to be wasted. How many mutants are there with the ability to store space? Moreover, the storage space of mutants is in a dozen to dozens of cubic meters, which cannot be loaded at all.

However, in this way, those ordinary people who can't absorb crystal cultivation have another job. Yan Banshan is one of them, Yan Banshan, who used to be a famous barrister, has his own law firm, lives in a villa, and drives a luxury car. And Liu Ming is the CEO of the logistics company, the villas of the two families are adjacent, and they usually have a lot of business contacts, and they naturally become friends. The end times came, and both families fled to the base. Liu Ming has a group of brothers, and he is also a martial artist, so he pulled out a hunting team and had a good life. And Yan Banshan can't absorb crystal cultivation, and there is a weak and sickly wife at home, and a pair of six-year-old twin sons. They all relied on Yan Banshan to earn money to support, and the money from the construction of the base alone, if it weren't for Liu Ming's frequent help, it would not be enough for his family to eat.

"Lao Liu, come and smoke a cigarette." Yan Banshan took out a delicate small wooden box from his pocket, and there were several rolled handmade cigarettes neatly placed in it, took one and handed it to Liu Ming.

"Lao Yan, we are old neighbors, to be honest, there are prey discarded by the hunting team, but you can go out for a few days, it's cold and snowy outside, your body can't withstand it!" Liu Ming and Yan Banshan have been neighbors for many years, and of course they know about his situation. In case something happens to Yan Banshan outside, how can this family live?

"Lao Liu, I have no choice, I don't eat, the two boys have to eat too, you just let me follow." Yan Banshan knew that Liu Ming was for his good, but the family was about to run out of food, and there was really no way.

"Alas! I've got a down jacket and cotton shoes for you to take and put on. Liu Ming knew that it was useless to say more, so he patted Yan Banshan on the shoulder and said.

"Lao Liu, thank you." Yan Banshan understands Liu Ming's difficulties very well, and being able to give him a set of warm equipment has already helped him a lot.
