Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

Chapter 39 Ashes after the catastrophe

Although for the sake of safety, Chen Xin should turn on the lights to illuminate the road ahead, but considering that turning on the lights will also reveal his existence, in order to reduce some unnecessary troubles, Chen Xin still smears driving and does not turn it on. car lights.

Fortunately, although the sky was very dark, there was still a little bit of light, allowing Chen Xin to see the road in front of him clearly.

The place where Chen Xin lives is on the outskirts of the city. In places like the Imperial Capital and the Demonic Capital, it is called the urban-rural junction. However, the city where Chen Xin lives is only a small southern town, and it is not as prosperous as the Imperial Capital and the Demonic Capital. The place where he lives is already barren. Ling, there are not many people, only a few farmers live here, it is a small village.

Chen Xin also moved out of the city because of the cleanliness of the place, so that it was convenient for him to write books and lived here.

However, although the place is remote, in recent years, due to the construction of infrastructure in the Yan Kingdom, the high-speed railway station was built nearby, but the roads in this area have been repaired well, so Chen Xin did not worry about any obstacles on the road after driving out. Just follow the road to the city.

The road leading to the city is very empty, and it does not look like the street full of abandoned cars in European and American doomsday movies.

In fact, this is what the apocalypse should look like, because humans knew the news of the meteorite impact three months in advance, and the country also evacuated more than 80% of the country's population into shelters in advance. Where are the abandoned cars that can block the road?

If there are really abandoned cars blocking the road, there is only one possibility, it is the roadblocks or road traps set up by others.

There were no obstacles on the road leading to the city. Before the disaster struck, every household had stopped going out. Naturally, there were no vehicles on the road, and some were just gray.

The wheels ran over, leaving two ruts. Chen Xin looked at the gray and white covering the surface of all objects, and his heart became very heavy.

Because these are the ashes left after the fire burned.

The road leading to the urban area originally had to cross a river. Although the surrounding area is not considered to be beautiful, it is also considered green. After all, the city's environmental protection and greening have always been good, and it was once selected as a green city.

But now that's all gone.

The green hills on both sides of the road have now become black, covered with gray-white ashes, looking like snow falling on a pile of black coal, and some plant remnants that have not been completely burned are twisted and weird. Ghosts are ugly and scary.

And the river that originally separated the city and the suburbs has now dried up and turned into a huge gully. Perhaps because of the relationship between the water in the past and the present, the bottom of the river presents an ugly black and yellow, just like the one in World of Warcraft. Like the famous Death Scar.

Chen Xin's memory of this river is still very deep, because his family lived near this river in the past, and he used to enjoy the cool here on summer nights, and he also asked girls to take a walk here.

It's just that the river that was once built by the city government into a park along the river can no longer be seen in its original form. The wooden walkway that the city government spent a lot of money on laying has only burned a few cement piles.

Facing this kind of scenery, Chen Xin couldn't help but slow down his speed, looking at all the things in front of him with some sadness.

The water in the river has evaporated to dryness, how much of the scenery by the river is left? Although Chen Xin didn't get out of the car, he could guess that under the fire of this scale, even the remaining cement piles and the stones built by the river bank would have been burnt out of shape.

Fortunately, the bridge was relatively stable and was not affected by the fire, otherwise he would not have dared to enter the city through this road.

Into the city, the scenery in the city is not much better than outside the city.

The lush green belts on both sides of the road in the past are now only the flower beds poured with cement and the tree stumps that have not been completely burnt out. Although the buildings on the roadside are not damaged, the original colorful signboards are burned and nothing is left. , that is really even the iron frame has been burned.

Several of the stores that Chen Xin frequented in the past even melted the rolling shutters at the entrance, turning them into a charred pool.

Looking at all this, Chen Xin really felt the end of the day, which made him feel a kind of trance like a lifetime.

The once prosperous streets, bustling squares, high-rise buildings, colorful neon lights, everything that was once familiar and accustomed to, turned out to be so fragile in the face of a disaster.

It's like a piece of fine china, it looks so beautiful, but once it is pushed to the ground, it is a piece of debris.

In the past, Chen Xin had seen a lot of photos and documentaries about war-torn areas when he was looking for materials for writing novels. He had no real feeling that those once prosperous places had become dilapidated after the war and chaos, but now he has truly and personally experienced what he once had. How precious is everything that is accustomed to.

But nothing can come back. Humans want to rebuild the prosperous streets and lanes of the past, make the square live again, re-decorate the city with colorful neon lights, make everything destroyed by the disaster come back, and rebuild our homeland, it takes at least a generation It is possible to rebuild their homes in this doomsday scorched earth.

And this is only if the environment of the apocalypse does not change, but unfortunately, in the years to come, the temperature will only get colder and colder, and before the haze and darkness in the sky dissipate, the whole world will be It will be a huge ice cellar that will freeze everything with freezing cold.

It is extremely difficult for human beings to rebuild their homes.

The cement may have turned into a lump of ice before being stirred, the ground is frozen harder than iron and cannot be digged, and all the surface water sources are also frozen...

Before the thick haze in the sky that completely blocked the sun dissipated, the earth was a huge ice cave. Whether human civilization can survive this catastrophe is unknown.

Rebuilding the home... I'm afraid it will really become something that you will never see in your lifetime.

However, this has nothing to do with Chen Xin now. Although the disaster has come, the real end has not yet come. It can be said that it is the last trace of warmth before the cold night.

For the surviving humans, what should be done now is to step up the collection of materials, and at the same time strengthen the shelter while the weather is not completely cold, so as to improve their chances of survival in the coming extreme cold as much as possible.

Of course, for Chen Xin, who already has a safe and stable shelter, and also picked up the survival system, how to survive is no longer his first priority.

How to make himself live longer and better is what Chen Xin needs to consider.
