In her prophetic dream, when S City experienced an extremely hot natural disaster, the temperature rose very quickly, more than 40 degrees Celsius was considered cool, and the daily 50 degrees started. Many outdoor plastic products are distorted and deformed by the sun, the surface water evaporates and dries, and things with engines can't be turned on at all, they are too hot, and they smoke when they are turned on.

Under such conditions, it was difficult for civil aircraft to take off and land long ago, and cars could not drive, and the method of long-distance delivery of supplies during that period was mainly by sea, and a small amount of emergency supplies were airdropped at night. Although the temperature at sea level is high, the sea water can effectively disperse the heat, and various ships transport various supplies from the sea to supply the coastal cities.

Now, however, the temperature outside seemed to be a little cooler than she had learned, or rather slower to heat up, giving humans more time to save themselves.

Is this a reward for ending the natural disaster early?

Qi Qing couldn't help but be a little shaken, if the key to ending the natural disaster early is to take the initiative to eliminate fifty percent of the selected ones, which can not only reduce the time for more ordinary people to suffer, but also make the subsequent natural disasters come slowly and gently, then will the concept that Clover insists on be correct?

She asked 799 in her mind, "Is it a hot disaster now?" ”

799 replied in a standard, unemotional, mechanical voice: [This is the buffer phase of entering the extreme heat disaster, and there are 26 days before entering the official phase. 】

She asked, "So, ending the natural disaster early, is this the reward we get?" ”

799 replied: [Yes, after the last natural disaster ended early, before the next natural disaster arrived, there will be a period of relative stability, but the external environment will be closer to the next natural disaster, which can be regarded as an early warning. Survivors can seize this opportunity to recuperate and build shelters against the next natural disaster. 】

Qi Qing said angrily: "Why don't you say such an important thing in advance?" ”

[You didn't ask.] I'm only responsible for telling common sense, and I have no obligation to remind you of what you didn't expect. 】

Qi Qingxin said that she was still not smart enough, she had experienced so many natural disasters in her dreams, and it was not until the extremely cold natural disasters in the real world had passed that she realized such an important problem. Is this matter a matter that Clover has already thought clearly, so it will be ruthless and choose a group of people to take the initiative to eliminate it in advance?

"Turn the chosen ones into sacrificers, and everyone will draw lots to die in batches, will all natural disasters end faster? Isn't there another way to end the natural disaster? ”

Qi Qing just wandered around this thought in his mind, and 799 had already sensed it.

[The first round of natural disasters has only one way to end early, and it has been announced to all the chosen ones as common sense.] But from the second round of natural disasters, there will be more ways to end natural disasters. Fifty percent elimination of the chosen one is one of them, and there will be other opportunities to generate new methods, without having to sacrifice so many lives of the chosen one, and someone will get a revelation when the hidden quest is triggered. 】

I see. She suddenly had a flash of inspiration, according to the principle that 799 just said, only those who take the initiative to think and ask this point will get the corresponding prompt, so are there many chosen ones who don't know that there are other ways to end the natural disaster?

799 approving: [Yes, according to the system's statistics, you are the third person on the planet to get this answer. 】

"Does Clover know?"

799 said: [You do not have the right to ask for the specific situation of a living person, you can choose relevant items or use the corresponding ability to get answers. 】

Qi Qing thought for a few seconds, and then changed to a vague question: "So is the four-leaf clover not included among the first two people who know the answer?" ”

799 replied: [Yes.] 】

Therefore, Clover may continue to eliminate half of the chosen ones in the following natural disasters by active elimination. After all, the first round of natural disasters seems to have worked. If Clover had all the "Chosen One" lists, she might have started killing people again while the outside environment was still around.

Qi Qing asked very seriously: "The chosen ones are more powerful existences than ordinary people, if more of the chosen ones survive, assisting ordinary people to resist natural disasters, and ending natural disasters in advance than actively eliminating and killing, can human beings get greater benefits?" Otherwise, there will be no more ways to end the natural disaster from the second round onwards. ”

799 If there is an entity with an expression, it should be relieved by now, and replied: [Yes. The trial of natural disasters is not to allow human beings to survive mediocrity, but to allow human beings to be tempered and strengthened or even evolved in extreme environments. The chosen ones are only the first group of people in the human group to awaken, and if there is one less death, less than a certain number, it will have no meaning for the evolution of humanity as a whole. 】

Qi Qing finally understood. Actively weeding out half of the chosen ones is just a low-end opportunistic approach. So did Clover really propose to eliminate half of the chosen ones for the sake of "purifying all beings", or was it for selfish gain? If Clover knew that there were other ways to end the Scourge and keep more of the Chosen One, would it change its current approach?

She wanted to tell Mo Xun about this important news and let him also consider whether to make the news public. If the news is announced, Clover still follows the previous practice and engages in some blacklist assassination, then she may have another purpose.

After ending the consciousness exchange with 799, Qi Qing's thinking returned to reality. Tell Mo Xun the news he got from 799 concisely, and Mo Xun told Qi Qing not to take the initiative to contact Clover with the names of those dead people. This kind of high-risk work is still left to the professional to do, and he will report it to his superiors to deal with.

Qi Qing was immediately relieved. She positions herself as just an ordinary person, living comfortably with herself and her family in natural disasters. With professionals to deal with Clover, there is no need for her to mix blindly.

Mo Xun gathered everyone together and talked about the fact that the air-raid shelter was officially requisitioned and was about to be converted into a high-standard shelter. He also mentioned that he could communicate with the official person in charge about everyone's needs, but no one has made a clear request so far. After all, it is troublesome, and this kind of favor is the most difficult to return.

Everyone whispered about it, and the most concerned thing was that they hoped to contact their relatives who were not around and inquire about their current situation. Previously, during the period when mobile phones could communicate in the early days of the extremely cold natural disaster, they all communicated with their relatives, knowing that their relatives were still alive and had a place to take refuge, but then the communication was interrupted, and they inevitably became worried again.

Among them, Professor Wang and several students have the strongest requirements for communication.

Professor Wang's parents, wife and children are far away in T City, living in the family building of T University, which is a city with centralized heating in winter, and the heating has lasted for nearly a month when the extreme cold comes.

Now, if it is a hot natural disaster, Professor Wang thinks that he should take the students to find an opportunity to return to the school in T City as soon as possible, which is further north and the temperature will be slightly lower. He opened his mouth and asked: "The so-called trees are dead, people are alive, if the northern region is cooler, Xiaoqing, it would be better for you to move to the north with us, right?" ”

Qi Qing hesitated for a moment and said solemnly: "As people with awakened abilities, we can actually get some hints about disasters. Now it is only a buffer period before the arrival of the next extremely hot natural disaster, the temperature is already so high, when the extremely hot natural disaster officially arrives, there is a high probability that the north will not be much cooler. In particular, T City is a coastal city, which may be more vulnerable to other disasters. ”

When everyone heard this, their colors changed.

Today's first update, thank you for leaving comments and votes, and there will be a more in the evening.
