Chapter 85: Recovery
For a long time, I wondered what the mysterious man meant by the word "not". Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Is that "not a monster hunter"?
Originally, I had to believe it myself, believing that I had the blood of a demon hunter in my body, and that I suddenly became enlightened at a critical moment. But now he suddenly said "no", and I was instantly confused again.
If not a monster hunter, then what am I?
How do you explain all the strange things that happened before?
I can fight demons, destroy them, and naturally know how to deal with them when I encounter them. The demons themselves have judged me, and they think I'm a demon hunter.
But I'm not. I asked the mysterious man what I was, if not the Demon Hunter, but he didn't answer, which filled my heart with even more doubts.
In my doubts, time passed day by day.
Just after the disaster and everything initially stabilized, I made a phone call to my cousin Lu Jiaxing. Of course, there is no mobile phone signal, and the only call that came out was that Liqiu used some spell to help me temporarily grab a signal from somewhere, so I was able to dial it. I learned on the phone that there was no disaster in my hometown, and although I also observed the abnormal color of the moon, there were no natural disasters or unnatural phenomena on that day, and there were no sudden large-scale casualties in the city.
Jiaxing said that everything is normal at home, and no one has encountered any accidents or accidents. I was slightly relieved, not because of my second uncle, of course, but because it meant that my parents' graves were safe and sound.
I have also thought, if I have a special constitution, what about my parents? What about this family? If my previous anomaly was not due to the existence of a mysterious person, but because of my own special bloodline, shouldn't the special bloodline be acquired through genetics? And the people in our family, measured by the standards of normal people, are indeed a little weird.
I can't think deeply about this problem, because there are still such huge unsolved mysteries on my second uncle's body, and I can't breathe. So what I can do is try to get these things out of my head as much as possible and not let them affect my life.
When I calmed down, I suddenly realized that the city was recovering much faster than I expected.
The day after the disaster, although there were no mobile phones, no telephones, and no televisions, it was difficult to understand the outside world, but the radio was still usable as soon as it was discovered. In the end, information can only be obtained through the radio, which adds a touch of apocalyptic flavor to the lives of the survivors. However, the news obtained through the radio waves is quite encouraging, as it has been found that although many cities have been affected nationwide, not all of them have been affected, and the affected areas cover only about one-fifth of the country's land area and are not connected. The affected cities are scattered all over the country, making it difficult for experts to analyze the structure of the earthquake zone.
I feel that since the moon can be seen in every corner of the world, it is not just the country that will cause disasters. Sure enough, news soon came that similar disasters had occurred one after another in all countries of the world on the same day.
Jet lag is there, but disasters all happen at night. Not only the experts, but everyone immediately linked the disaster to the moon in the sky, after all, such a bright red blood moon is rare in history, at least, there is definitely no time when there are image records.
The more you explain, the more contradictions there are, and the more you panic people.
However, not all cities have been affected, giving people a chance to breathe.
Very quickly, with the unified mobilization of the state, the areas that were not affected by the disaster began to concentrate their efforts and provide support to the disaster-stricken areas. A large amount of manpower and material resources were continuously imported, and temporary shelters were soon built, and the supply of water and electricity was restored for a limited time.
In the first few days, the bar provided free food to the surrounding residents, and anyone who came to the store could receive a free high-calorie, high-nutrition meal to help them tide over the initial difficulties. All the food was transferred from other regions by Liqing and them using spells, and Liqing also recruited a group of low-level demons to open an enchantment in the backyard, set up a cauldron, and cook food day and night.
I became the "technical guide" of these cooking demons.
It doesn't take much effort, but there are a lot of things to do. The little demons hardly know what to do with human food, and they all need to be directed by me little by little. Fortunately, these little demons were very afraid of Liqing, so they obeyed my command, which made the work intensity a little lower.
On the fifth day after the disaster, the temporary shelters for the victims were built and the necessary food was provided, and the pressure gradually lessened. In the sky above the city, there were always helicopters circling, and various machines rumbled above the ruins, and gradually, the city sorted out a little bit of eyebrows in the roar of machinery.
Rescue work followed, followed by cranes, excavators and transports to remove the collapsed building materials bit by bit. People with shelters were afraid to go out, because the weather was getting hot, and the corpses and human stumps buried in the rubble had begun to decompose and emit a terrible smell. Fearing that the epidemic would spread, many people in protective suits walked through the rubble with sprayers in hand every day, spraying medicines, and it looked like a "Resident Evil" had happened.
But looking at all this, my faith gradually built. Sure enough, as Lichun once said, no matter what kind of difficulties are encountered, human beings will always stand up.
How I wish everything had ended here, that I could return to a peaceful life, but for some reason, there was always a faint uneasiness in my heart. I've always wondered what the cause of this blood moon is, and judging by the lively discussions on the radio every day, people are also thinking about it, and people are trying to find a correct answer to this anomalous astronomical phenomenon.
However, I know that it is impossible, and it is true that humanity has not yet figured out the answer to the question.
So my concern is, if the sanctions of the rules symbolized by the blood moon are not recognized by humanity and do not change the minds of mankind, then will it all end like this?
That's probably where that uneasiness comes from.
As time passed, the city became more and more refreshing, and the sense of fear and oppression gradually faded. People have had their saddest and most difficult times, and the city is slowly starting to regain its vitality.
And I was finally able to get a good night's sleep.
On this day, after falling into a really deep sleep, I unknowingly had a strange dream.
