The temperature outside was much colder than Wang Tao had imagined, and he looked at his information watch, which showed that it was more than 20 degrees below zero.

"What the hell is ...... weather"

After scolding secretly, Wang Tao hurriedly drove the power armor and walked out with the others.

He first checked his Qiushui Pavilion villa area. The villa area is very large, only these nearby villas belong to him, and the rest belongs to others. It's just close, so let's take a look first.

Speaking of which, since Wang Tao moved here, he basically hasn't communicated with these neighbors.

After all, he is not often at home, most of the time is outside, and he has no time to contact his neighbors. Moreover, this villa area is also relatively large, the villas are relatively sparse, and Wang Tao is too lazy to run to other people.

Now this is the first time Wang Tao has officially met with these neighbors.

Although there is no such thing as a rich area or slum on the surface of the Changhe base, there are certainly some in fact.

Some of the survivors Wang Tao rescued yesterday can be regarded as slum people, and they generally live in shacks, such as brick houses and slow-setting earth houses, which are sturdy and not surprising to be crushed by heavy snowfall.

And Qiushui Pavilion is a wealthy area, the villas here are very solid, and the snow cannot crush them.

Of course, just because the house is okay doesn't mean the people inside are okay. Now that the temperature is so low, if there is no firewood in it to keep warm, it may freeze to death. And ordinary cars can't go outside, there is no way to replenish food, in case there happens to be no food in any house, it may also be life-threatening.

Wang Tao took everyone around the Qiushui Pavilion villa area.

Then he had to sigh that this is a rich area, they may not be as good as before the snow, but at least they have food, drink and fire, and there is no danger to their lives. It's much better than those poor people or civilians.

However, their mental state is not very good, and they are all wilting.

After all, they are now locked up in their homes, and ordinary people are completely afraid to go out except for the supernatural. It's okay for a short time, but if the snow doesn't stop for a long time, their supplies won't be enough.

Wang Tao's arrival made them very excited, although Wang Tao said that he was not sending supplies, just to see if they were still alive, but this at least proved that they were not forgotten. Because they can't reach anyone else.

Wang Tao also knew that the line of his villa was a special line buried underground, which was not the same as the line of this Qiushui Pavilion, and the line of Qiushui Pavilion was on the telephone pole on the ground...... When it snowed heavily last night, there was a problem with the line at Qiushui Pavilion, which caused them to be unable to contact the outside world. They couldn't go out, so they were so excited when they saw Wang Tao.

After figuring out what happened, Wang Tao wanted to help them repair the line, but this thing couldn't be repaired in a short time, because Wang Tao didn't know where it broke down.

So Wang Tao comforted these people that they could come to his villa to find him if there was anything.

Although those people can't go far, these villas are not far from each other, and it's okay to wear thicker.

After confirming that these people were only in a bad mental state and were not killed or injured, Wang Tao left Qiushui Pavilion this time. Then he followed the route that Gu Yun planned for him, and began to check door to door.

Until the evening, when he couldn't see his five fingers outside, Wang Tao finally looked at the situation in the range.

On the whole, it was okay, no one was frozen to death, at most a little cold and hungry. Wang Tao sent some people to the homes of others, so that they could be companions and keep each other warm.

As for the food, don't worry about it for the time being, Wang Tao still has a lot of cockroach paste in his hand, which he and Ding Yuqin don't eat, and it's useless to put it at home, so he gave it to these people.

The survivors were naturally grateful to Wang Tao, as long as there was food, they could hold on for a long time.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang! You've done us a great favor! ”

Gu Yun also thanked Wang Tao on the phone.

If Wang Tao hadn't fed these survivors and gathered them together as much as possible, there would definitely be new casualties after tonight.

"What's going on over there?"

Wang Tao asked.

Gu Yun suddenly sighed.

"Hey...... This time the casualties are very large! So far, more than 100 people have died as a result of the snowstorm! The exact number is still being counted, and I estimate that this number may be doubled......"

Hearing Gu Yun's words, Wang Tao was also silent for a while.

If it is in the wild, let alone one or two hundred people will die, it will be one or two thousand people, Wang Tao is not surprised, after all, it is very dangerous outside.

But now this is not the wilderness, this is in the base where everyone feels very safe! And they weren't killed by zombie monsters, but by the snow disaster!

You know, it's only been raining for three days, and so many people have died...... Experts at the institute estimate that this heavy snowfall will last for at least half a month, and it will most likely last for a month. According to the current situation, if it lasts for half a month, I don't know how many people will die because of it......

However, this kind of natural disaster is not something that Wang Tao can change, he can only say that he can save as many people as possible......

"Oh yes, Mr. Wang, can you give me the iron beetle I ordered earlier? With that thing, our rescue efforts could be a lot faster......"

Gu Yun hurriedly asked.

"Yes. I'll send it to you. ”

Wang Tao hasn't gone back yet, he asked the others to go back first, and he ran to the city hall alone.

"Thank you, thank you so much!"

Gu Yun was immediately overjoyed.

By the time Wang Tao drove the power armor to the city hall, Gu Yun was already waiting outside.

At this time, the heavy snow has not stopped, but there is not much snow in front of the town hall, because it has been cleared.

Wang Tao saw that Gu Yun, who was wearing thick clothes, was waiting at the door in person, he was a little miserable, it seemed that he should have been to the front line of disaster relief. However, he is an anomaly, so there is naturally no problem in going to the front line.

Because it was dark, Gu Yun couldn't see Wang Tao clearly, and it wasn't until Wang Tao got closer that he saw the light blue light coming quickly in the night.

"Mr. Wang! Come in! ”

After Wang Tao met with the other party, Gu Yunmian hurriedly invited Wang Tao in.

As soon as you enter, you can see a lot of wounded people lying in the hall, basically either smashed or frostbitten. There are also people to take care of next to it.

"There is no place nearby, so we can only bring these wounded to us."

Gu Yun explained helplessly, and then took Wang Tao to the living room on the second floor.

Wang Tao didn't talk nonsense, and directly took out the iron beetle with fireproof ability.

"This iron beetle is different from other iron beetles, it has a fireproof ability......"

Wang Tao briefly introduced some of them.

In general, this fireproof capability is of little use. But if you know this ability, you can formulate some tactics based on this ability, so this ability is still very good.

Gu Yun didn't know this before, but now when he heard it, his face was first happy, and then a little helpless. If you have one more ability, it means that you need more money to buy!

Before Wang Tao came, he had already prepared the money, and wanted to give Wang Tao a hand to pay the money and deliver the goods with one hand, but now he has to temporarily increase the money.

Although Gu Yun didn't use his own money, but the money from the city hall, he was still a little distressed.

In the end, Gu Yun bought this iron beetle at a price of 2.6 million. This is much higher than the price of the first iron beetle purchased by the town hall before, which only cost 1 million before.

This is not Wang Tao taking advantage of the fire to rob, because according to Gu Yun's calculations, this will cost more than 3 million, and Wang Tao is preferential.

Wang Tao thought that Gu Yun was going to owe a little, but he didn't expect Gu Yun to transfer the money directly in front of Wang Tao.

"Happy working together!"

Seeing the excited expression on Gu Yun's face, Wang Tao shook hands with him.

"It was a pleasure to work with. If that's nothing, we'll go first. ”

"Okay! Then you go back and have a good rest, and we can come in the evening. We may need your help tomorrow! ”

"Okay, call me directly if you have something."

"No problem - oh yes, I still have a lot of protein cubes here, you take them first, and you might use them later......"

"Okay."

After Wang Tao returned home with a large amount of cockroach paste, he contacted Cheng Yiyi again and asked her if she needed help.

Cheng Yiyi also said no, the situation was temporarily controlled, and if there was any need, she would contact Wang Tao again.

So Wang Tao and the others also slept well.

When he woke up the next day, it was still snowing heavily, Wang Tao went out to take a look, and the temperature didn't seem to have changed much, and it was still more than 20 degrees below zero.

Just after breakfast, Gu Yun sent a message on time, expressing the hope that Wang Tao could go again to see if the people in the other areas were safe or not, and if he could send them some protein cubes. Now communications have been cut off in many places, and the town hall doesn't know what's going on there.

Wang Tao naturally said that there was no problem, but just as he was about to leave, Yao Guodong suddenly contacted Wang Tao.

"Mr. Wang, I've become an Alien!"

Yao Guodong was very excited.

"Congratulations!"

Wang Tao had a smile on his face.

"Without Mr. Wang's help, I wouldn't have been able to become an Extraordinary in my life! You are my benefactor! I won't say much more, and I'll definitely repay you! ”

Yao Guodong has not forgotten who made him an alien, and he also said it bluntly, wanting to repay Wang Tao.

"What is not repaid, Mayor Yao is polite......"

After Wang Tao said a few more polite words, Yao Guodong said again:

"I have to say that after becoming an alien, my physical fitness has improved a lot, and I am not so afraid of the current low temperature now, so I can go out...... Mr. Wang, let's not talk about it yet, I still have to be busy......

Now that Yao Guodong has woken up, he has to personally handle the disaster relief.

He can become the mayor, with his real ability, and now he has become an anomaly, not to mention the combat effectiveness or anything, at least his physical fitness has improved a lot, and in terms of disaster relief, it should be no problem to be on the front line in person.

"Okay."

After hanging up the call, Wang Tao took everyone out.

According to the map given to him by Gu Yun, he began to search door to door.

However, his luck was not so good this time, and he found a dead person in the first house.

This is an old man in his sixties, through the clues at the scene, Wang Tao felt that the window of the house should be blown open by the wind, this old man wanted to close the window, but accidentally fell, I don't know if he fainted or couldn't get up, anyway, he has not been able to get up. The cold air of minus twenty or thirty degrees Celsius entered the house, and it didn't take long for him to freeze to death......

"Hey......"

Lan Yulian sighed.

No matter how strong her healing ability is, she can't bring it back to life.

"Let's go."

Wang Tao shook his head, and then led everyone to the next house.

From the time he went out in the morning, he was busy until dark, and Wang Tao once again completed the task given by Gu Yun. Not only did he search all the areas, but he also gathered some of the more difficult survivors in a relatively strong building, providing them with food, hot water, and firewood to keep them alive for three days.

In fact, in less than three days, tomorrow someone from the Legion will come and take them to the aid station.

Wang Tao and his party were busy all day, and they didn't feel tired - of course, in terms of their physical fitness, they were indeed not tired.

But the mood of the people was not very good, because they had seen more than a dozen corpses today, some on the bed, some on the ground, and some outside...... Without exception, all of them froze to death.

When the Changhe base was built, it was summer, and when it was hot, it may not have expected this situation of more than 20 degrees below zero...... So there are a lot of houses here that are simply built and not very good at protecting against the cold. Especially if ordinary people have poor physical fitness, if they get a cold or something, they may not be able to get up when they sleep......

However, it is not without good news, Yao Guodong told Wang Tao that after three days of busyness, the disaster relief work on the side of the city hall is finally on the right track, and the tasks of various departments have been assigned.

Although this does not solve the problem directly, as long as the problem can be detected in time, it can be considered okay. After all, the Changhe base is so big and there are so many people, it is not easy for the city hall to do this step, among them, Yao Guodong, who has just become an anomaly, has made the greatest contribution, and his ability in this area is still very strong.

Wang Tao and his entourage returned home, contacted Yao Guodong, and after making sure that there was nothing wrong with him, they all went to rest.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Tao was woken up by the message watch.

Under normal circumstances, when others contact him in the morning, they leave a message, and this kind of direct call is relatively rare, especially now that it is only six o'clock and the sky is not yet dawn. This is obviously something important.

The caller was Gu Yun.

"Secretary-General Gu, what's wrong?"

"Mr. Wang! Mayor Yao Yu Zuoye was frozen to death! ”
