002: This apocalypse is different
Why is there no reason to say so? Because until now, people have not figured out what the real reason for the end times is? It's as if Mother Earth no longer pampers humans, all kinds of disasters have erupted one after another, and the whole world has been turned upside down. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
First of all, Korea and Japan were like crazy, and suddenly a war broke out, and both sides were frantically washed by each other's nuclear bombs, turning both sides into a radioactive wasteland;
Then the Ganges River in India gave birth to a biochemical zombie virus for unknown reasons, and in a short period of time, the whole of India almost became a zombie country;
Before humans could react, the creatures of Africa began to magically mutate, evolving into various powerful mutated creatures and becoming the animal kingdom;
These are not the end, the whole of Australia has been torn apart by the earth's crustal movement, and the originally rich and beautiful continent has disappeared forever and become a country of thousand islands;
South America was inexplicably hit by thunderstorms and violent winds, and the traces of human civilization were destroyed almost overnight, and lightning and winds turned it into a human Jedi;
The European continent was hit by a cold snap, and the temperature dropped sharply as if it had entered the ice age overnight, turning into a fairy tale world of ice and snow;
North America suffered from the scene in the movie "2012", the Yellowstone volcano woke up and erupted, and in a blink of an eye, people's homes were wiped out and turned into hell on earth;
The land of China was inundated by torrential rains and tsunamis, and the beast-like flood caused a lot of life, submerged all of them, and turned into thousands of miles of water;
There is no connection between these disasters, and various disasters such as radiation, viruses, biology, climate, environment, geology, etc., have almost wiped out human beings, but fortunately, human survival is tenacious.
But unlike the post-apocalyptic novels on the Internet before the end of the world, the surviving human beings who have suffered various disasters have slowly restored order with the help of the remnants of the government and the military after the initial chaos.
The population has plummeted from 7 billion to only about 1 billion, and after several years of respite and recovery, basic order has been restored again, after all, some disasters, such as volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, etc., are only temporary.
Of course, although a certain order has been restored, it is no longer possible for human beings to dominate the whole world like before the end of the world, and those zombie monsters and mutated creatures have not become extinct because of disasters, but have unknowingly spread all over the world after the various disasters have ended.
Because of this, most of the world has now become a world of monsters, which humans call the wilderness. In the wilderness, dangerous hordes of zombies and powerful mutated animals have risen to the top of the food chain, while humans have to huddle in partially safe areas and cities.
Some people may find it difficult to understand why humanity has survived after so many extinction disasters, retaining the government and army, and also finding a way to restore the Internet, which is very different from the post-apocalyptic world in the movie.
There are not many people who have this kind of thought, Annan has met many people in recent years, but as a real survivor of the apocalypse, don't underestimate the strength and creativity of human beings, those who think that there is no hope for mankind have long been eliminated in the environment of big waves and sands.
The rest dare not say that they are the elite of the human race, but at least every survivor has not forgotten the past of humanity and has not given up hope for the future.
Annan still remembers the first year after the end of the world, when he was hiding with his parents and family in a small safe settlement, when the floodwaters had receded, but the zombie virus and mutated monsters had frightened those who had just endured the ordeal.
In that settlement of more than 10,000 people, in the face of zombies and monsters every day, many people's emotions collapsed directly, and many people around Annan committed suicide every day because they couldn't stand that fear.
The saddest thing is that in fact, the zombies and monsters were not very powerful at that time, and those who committed suicide were simply broken by shrimp, and gave up hope of life under the pessimism of losing their homes and fear.
To Annan's lamentation, in those days, only two-thirds of the people killed by the zombie monsters committed suicide, which means that most of the people in that settlement committed suicide, until in the end, only about 1,000 people remained.
At that time, Annan hid in the settlement with his family, and he almost gave up hope of life, and thought about dying with his family countless times, which can be regarded as a rare good thing in the last days.
But then he slowly gave up this idea, not because he saw it, but because he was afraid of death.
At first, Annan was not afraid, after all, the most common thing to see in the last days is death, but Annan really saw too much.
At that time, because he was timid and incapable, he couldn't find any good work in the settlement, at that time, nutrition was not yet popular, and the leader of the settlement would only have a temporary group, and then the survivors often committed suicide every once in a while, and it was always said that those days were the most bitter and difficult.
In order to support himself and his family, Annan had to find the kind of job that no one did, with a high salary and no risk, that is, collecting the bodies of the survivors.
After all, at that time, people committed suicide every day, or were killed by monsters, and the more corpses there were, it was easy to cause plague, so the settlement found a group of people who were not afraid of dirty, and specially collected corpses and carried out simple cremation treatment.
Those days may have been the most depressing period of Annan's life, and even the catastrophes of the last days could not be compared, especially when collecting the bodies of those who committed suicide in large numbers.
Every time Annan saw the suicide victims often hugging each other as a family, holding hands, with a smile on his face, he did not feel good in his heart, but felt unable to breathe because of those "smiles".
So in the end, he would rather venture out into the field to collect the bodies of those killed by the monsters (half of them were killed by the zombies and there was nothing left), and he would rather go and pick up the bloody arms or mutilated thighs for the poor people, rather than see the terrible "smiles" on the faces of the suicides.
Later, because Annan worked hard to collect the body, he was appreciated by a settlement executive and helped Annan a lot, and it was this executive who took Annan's family to the current large settlement - Changhu New Town.
Of course, this is a later story, Annan has begun to become more timid since he finished the unpromising job of collecting corpses, the previous timidity was because of fear, but now the timidity is because of the "smile" on those faces, it can be said that it is the shadow in his heart.
But I have to say that Annan's luck, with the help of the executive who appreciated him, he turned around and came to Changhu New Town, where there are remnants of the government and army, and some pre-apocalyptic codes of conduct and laws remain.
The most important thing is that the survivors here have strong strength, and the strength here not only refers to the force value of resisting monsters, but also includes various soft powers, such as the level of science and technology, and the most important thing is that the survivors here have not lost hope of life because of their strength and leadership.
With hard and soft power, coupled with the spirit of not giving up, Changhu New Town has grown in just one year, becoming the largest and most successful settlement within a few hundred kilometers around Changhu.
Of course, all this is not simple, especially the survivors of Changhu New Town, before several super technologies were invented, they also suffered a lot of losses like other settlements.
But everything changed quickly after the explosion of technology, as large settlements in various parts of the world adapted to the post-apocalyptic world, and humanity also broke out again after the catastrophe, and all kinds of super technologies were invented and quickly put into use.
For example, the quantum communication satellite invented by the Tianjing City settlement has enabled various settlements around the world to restore communication; The invention of high-energy battery technology in the Shenhai New Town settlement has made people no longer have to worry about energy.
There is also the aforementioned nutrient technology, which was invented by the settlement of Nanguang City, which solved the food problem in the last days. But to say that the greatest in the last days is almost not its turn, the greatest technology was jointly invented by more than a dozen super settlements such as New Tokyo, Boston, Paris, London, and Tianjing City.
After studying zombies and mutant monsters, people invented human enhancement potions in the second year of the apocalypse, and by extracting some mysterious substances in the brains of zombies and mutant animals, the enhanced potions developed can stimulate the potential of the human body safely and without side effects after being injected into the human body, and strengthen the human body.
This technology has completely changed the status of human beings in the last days, since the birth of the enhanced warriors, human beings are no longer powerless in the face of zombies and monsters, but also with the help of various emerging technologies and weapons, once again established a place for human beings to survive in the last days.
But in any case, humanity will never have a chance to rule the earth again, because while surviving human development, those zombies and monsters are also evolving, even faster than human development.
The evolution of zombies and monsters has always been beyond the expectations of human scientists, in the words of a surviving science master: those despicable and ugly monsters, someone must help them cheat, zombie monsters can actually appear skills, and use the earth as a playground!
That's right, zombies and monsters have evolved to the point of having skills, some monsters can go to the sky and the earth, some can turn over rivers and seas, some can be invulnerable, and some can swallow clouds and spit fire, it's just like in mythology, and even some high-level zombies have slowly gained wisdom and consciousness, and they are no longer as crazy as they were at the beginning.
And this is what the surviving humans are most worried about, because all the surviving humans, the era that once belonged to them is gone, and now it belongs to the ****** of humans and monsters, and today is the fifth year, the seventh month and seven days of the end times
