Chapter 75

It was already night, but the blizzard did not stop at all, and the situation in the factory was not optimistic, the pervasive cold snap raged inside the factory, and the ice on the ground was also condensed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and as long as it was a little farther away from the location of the campfire, it was covered with thick frost.

Once again, nature has shown itself to be powerful in front of people.

Feng Yan moved his slightly stiff body, and walked quickly to the door of the factory room against the biting cold wind, but when he pushed the door, he was surprised to find that even the door had been frozen!

Pushed a few more times, and with the sound of breaking ice coming from the door panel, the two doors were directly pushed off by him!

Seeing this, Feng Yan's brows furrowed fiercely again, he knew that the cold snap outside was worse than he imagined, but he didn't expect that things were far more serious than he imagined.

"Old man, this weather is far stranger than you say!"

Just as he looked up, he saw a huge vertical ring cloud in the snowy sky, just like when a giant storm came, and they were at the edge of the cloud!

"Boy, are you sure you're not mistaken, it's really a huge cloud!" Professor He's staccato voice rang out in the room.

Not only him, but everyone in the room had the feeling of sitting in a convertible that was speeding at a hundred yards per hour, and the violent air flow would penetrate the mouth with a single mouth, seriously interfering with the normal functioning of the vocal cords.

"I'm sure I'm not mistaken, and this huge cloud is about to hang up on us!"

Feng Yan's words were passed on to Professor He's ears word for word, and he immediately stared at this old man who was living like a spirit, and his heart was beating in shock.

Feng Yan at the door also felt an extreme uneasiness in his heart, and at this moment he noticed that the temperature around him had dropped again, and even he felt that the severe cold of minus zero seemed to freeze the raging storm and snow, even if it was allowed to roar and rage, but the silence around him was almost audible.

Suddenly, a very small 'click' sound of breaking ice came to his ears, and he saw that a layer of blue ice was rapidly condensing on the exterior of the surrounding buildings, and then a layer of rapidly condensing frost appeared on his legs, and it would take less than ten minutes to freeze his legs into popsicles!

Even his body can't withstand the cold of the outside world, and the horror of this cold wave can be seen.

At the same time, the survivors who were constantly digging underground caves in the factory also let out a cry of pain.

Frost spreads wildly not only on the walls, but also on the rocks and dirt underground, and if you touch anything other than the campfire, your bare skin will be stuck together by the condensed frost on it, and a little force will tear off a piece of flesh!

"Don't be a zombie! If you don't want to freeze to death, come over and help!"

The earth adepts let out a loud shout, the cold not only froze their bodies, but also severely affected the operation of the ability, and the original simple work had to ask others to work together in such an environment.

Feng Yan, who was standing at the door, hurriedly moved his legs, and then blocked the two doors that he had destroyed, and at this moment a thick layer of frost had condensed in the factory, and the room was like a huge freezer.

"Work hard, the foundation below has begun to appear frosty, and it will be more difficult to continue dragging it down and digging!" Glancing at the excavation site, Feng Yan hurriedly shouted a few words at the earth powerhouse below, and then picked up a handful of branches and broke them hard.

"Don't be idle, like me, break the branches and let the bonfire burn harder. ”

With Feng Yan's command, the other people who were jumping up and down on the spot with nothing to do did the same, picked up a piece of firewood, broke it, and threw it into the roaring bonfire.

Twenty minutes later, the group of survivors who were huddled together to keep warm entered the cave, and Feng Yan's team was also fortunate enough to be invited into one of the caves by one of the teams.

Looking at the figures of other people rushing in, Feng Yan just wanted to enter, but he was grabbed by an arm.

Grabbing his arm was a young woman who was still charming, and she gritted her teeth and trembled and said, "You... Your name is Feng Yan, right?

Saying this, the expression on her bloodless face was extremely tangled, and finally she gritted her teeth and said, "Can you let my son in? I will repay you!"

Feng Yan knew that although these people were all superpowers, because they couldn't stand the rules of the team and were unwilling to huddle with others for warmth, they had no conditions to enter the caves opened up by other teams, and the result was naturally to freeze to death.

"Repay me? How can you repay me now but flesh payment? And the cavern below is already full, so I can't drive the people down there to make way for you two." ”

With that, he shook off her hand and went into the cave to ignore her.

......

Following.

Feng Yan woke up in a daze, and quickly regained consciousness.

Rubbing his anguished head, he remembered the scene of the previous night, the night when he had fallen asleep unexpectedly, and had a long, long nightmare.

The terrible feeling began to appear after he closed his eyelids, as if he was watching a horror movie, or was it a 365-degree more real and comprehensive feeling than a 5D movie, and even the content he saw was all the fantasies of fear from childhood.

Although he knew that it was fake, the bloody thing was that he couldn't wake up at all, and could only survive the pain of these few hours in a cold sweat.

Taking a deep breath, he climbed onto the ground, and was greeted by ice sculptures, his originally active face covered with snow-white ice chips.

Glancing at the young woman who begged him last night, Feng Yan sighed, and just wanted to go outside to see the situation, but was pulled by Professor He's arm.

"Are you all unable to speak, and you can't speak if you have something? He speechlessly slapped Professor He's frozen red paws, and then said impatiently: "Old man, do you want to gather wool again?"

Professor He didn't speak, just dragged him to a no-man's corner, and then mysteriously glanced at the survivors not far away.

Then he happily took out a box of cigarettes from Feng Yan's pocket, took out one and lit it, and took a puff beautifully.

Looking at his old naughty appearance, Feng Yan was also full of emotion, so he didn't say anything more, just squatted in the corner with him and smoked by himself.

It's rare to have such a leisurely time in these troubled days.

As for survival and the end of the world, we have to wait until after smoking.

"More than forty people died. After a long time, Feng Yan said a word, wanting to see Professor He's reaction.

He took two puffs of the cigarette butt that burned to the filter, slowly exhaled a breath, and then said: "Death is death, and death is happier than life." ”

Suddenly, his face turned grim, and he continued: "Feng Yan, do you know Cambrian?"

"One thing to know, it is said that there was a great explosion of species during the Cambrian period. Feng Yan rubbed his eyebrows, trying his best to piece together the knowledge recalled in his mind.

"Yes, what else?" Professor He nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask.

"No," Feng Yan replied honestly.

He knew that the Cambrian period led to an explosive evolution of species, and that it was at that time that species diversity began to emerge.

"Actually, this should be what Lao Zhang told you, but Lao Zhang he... Alas, it is speculated that the Cambrian period began 542 million years ago, and in that short period of tens of thousands of years, organisms began to evolve by leaps and bounds, and the number of species increased explosively. ”

Aside from the end of the world, I sometimes want to see the emergence of life and the evolution of species in that era, and how adapted to the environment at that time. ”

Professor He looked at the "ice sculptures" in the room, pointed to their last struggle before death, and said faintly: "God has given them the same opportunity, for pre-apocalyptic people, they are undoubtedly like superhumans, but just because they are one step late on the road of evolution, they have been eliminated by natural selection again and again." ”

"What do you mean, old man?" Feng Yan asked, vaguely understanding the meaning of Professor He's words in his heart.

"That's right, the end of the world is a more terrifying era than the Cambrian, since its first day, the whole world has changed dramatically overnight, these twenty days are actually the time for all species on the surface to evolve, and last night's cold wave was actually a harbinger of the beginning of the catastrophe. ”

Suddenly, Professor He looked at Feng Yan solemnly, and said word by word: "Last night's cold wave wiped out the vast majority of living things on the surface, pay attention to living things, not only animals; after last night, only the most powerful individuals can get a chance to live, which means that we will face more powerful enemies next!"

"Old man, what do you mean..."Feng Yan was about to ask, but suddenly a question came to mind, making his voice stuck in his throat.

Professor He smiled slightly and said with a sly smile: "It seems that we thought of going together." ”

"Lao Zhang and I told me about gluttony, the predecessor of gluttony is human beings! Human evolution is so slow, and if human beings want to continue to survive, then they need a new breakthrough - gluttony. ”

Humans can't keep up with the Creator, but gluttony is no problem!

Human civilization has been hit hard in the end times, making it impossible for the survivors to rise above all things as before, which requires a new model for the species to evolve.

Perhaps, in order for human beings to evolve, God can only beat human beings into the lowest level of fierce beasts, so as to give them the capital to live, and then slowly evolve. "Therefore, the Earth is not necessarily trying to cleanse the current species, but to bring humanity back into its grasp," he added. ”

"Our race is not abandoned, but it is just going to take a detour on the road of evolution. ”

Hearing this, Feng Yan suddenly felt his scalp tingle, and when he thought about it, he felt that this muddy water was not ordinarily deep.

Gluttony represents the evolution of human beings, but they have chosen a different path, so what is the fate of human beings?
