Doomsday disaster: Start by building a shelter

"Okay, I'll remember you, Wang Xinning, right? You can find me next time if you need anything."

The official smiled.

The middle-aged man smiled and lowered his head, carefully carrying the remaining things and returned to his six-person dormitory.

At this time, the other people in the dormitory were still working outside, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Lay out the lettuce, sugar, chocolate, medicine, etc. on the table.

Wang Xinning found that there seemed to be a photo frame in the bag that was not within the scope of the transaction.

He picked up the photo frame, and the photo of the little girl with a faint smile inside caught his eye.

That was his daughter.

"Thank you."

Wang Xinning's eyes were a little red, and he whispered a thank you that was destined not to be heard. His fingers gently brushed the photo frame, and then fell on the lettuce leaves on the table with water droplets.

These are the only materials he has at present, which will become his capital to start a business, as well as the tickets to reunite with his daughter in the future.

On the other side.

After reaching a deal, Su Wu no longer paid attention to the returning medium-sized truck.

He found some unexpected components in the hardware materials that were given as gifts. These things, combined with the chips he had just received, can perfectly fill in some of the materials that are lacking in the current shelter renovation process. The original working time of more than 1,200 hours was reduced to less than 20 hours.

"What a good man."

Recalling the photo that was handed over, Su Wu was full of goodwill towards the middle-aged man with such a beautiful daughter.

He decided that if there was a chance in the future, he could help him again depending on the situation.

Next.

There is nothing to say about the process of shelter renovation and upgrading.

Just like a game, while Su Wu was browsing forum messages and sleeping, he unknowingly walked to the end automatically.

At the same time, as the renovation progressed, the experience bar behind the shelter level on Su Wu's system panel also quietly began to rise rapidly, from 76% to 100%. Then it was promoted to a livable personal shelter (0%).

This upgrade.

Although the daily fixed survival point income was not increased, Su Wu received a one-time bonus of 50 survival points during the settlement period that night.

His savings became rich again.

June 14.

The average surface temperature rose to 57 degrees.

The number of humans still active outside was reduced to a rare level. Many ordinary vehicles could no longer drive normally on the road.

Su Wu did not go out that day.

He spent the whole day in forums and chat groups, chatting and spamming casually.

Although it seemed a bit unprofessional, it also made him more aware of the situation outside. At the same time, he also became familiar with a girl named Chen Xin.

This girl was none other than the person who had asked for help in the doomsday group and was casually reminded by Su Wu.

She listened to Su Wu's advice.

She really transferred from the coastal area to the inland area. And coincidentally, the transfer location was also in Jianghe City.

June 17.

The surface temperature reached 60 degrees.

Except for the North and South Poles, the whole world began to burn with raging fire.

A large amount of toxic smoke went straight into the sky and turned into thick clouds. In some areas near the most intense forest fires, the sky turned red like fire.

The suburbs of Jianghe City.

Near Su Wu's farmyard.

It was close to noon, but the sky was gray and dim. Even with the high beam on, it was impossible to see the scenery a hundred meters away.

No exception.

This fire that spread across the world also burned in the mountains near the farmyard.

Unlike the small forest fire that occurred more than a week ago, this time the fire covered all parts of the mountain area and swallowed up everything that could burn.

And there was a faint trend of spreading towards the urban area.

"The situation is serious."

Su Wu stayed in the control center on the second floor of the underground shelter, remotely controlling the camera installed on the roof of the second floor of the farmyard. Observing the situation outside.

From the camera footage, we can see that the mountains behind the gravel beach have been completely submerged in the orange-red sea of ​​fire. The scale of the fire is so large that even with the thick smoke covering it, it is still frightening. It feels like a primitive man riding a wooden sailboat, facing the vast ocean and fierce storm for the first time.

In the face of the power of heaven and earth, Su Wu has no doubt that even if an aircraft carrier is thrown in, it will be easily burned through.

The horrible fire has been burning for more than ten hours.

It burned from day to night, and then from night to dawn.

However, the situation has not improved, but has become more severe.

The clouds accumulated in the sky are getting thicker and thicker. The strong wind that blew from nowhere swept the burning dead branches and leaves into the sky, and then fell into the villages and factories in the distance. Then, from time to time, swaying sparks would fall in the city.

In the end, the fire inevitably appeared in the urban area. First, there were a few fire spots, then they connected into a line of fire, and then expanded into a large area. In less than half a day, the whole city was in the furnace of flames.

"Warning, toxic gas detected."

"Start closing all external doors and start a higher power purification system."

Because of the existence of the gravel beach.

The farmyard above Su Wu's shelter was fortunately not affected by the fires in the mountains and the city.

But it still could not avoid the poisonous fog and ashes falling from the sky.

The high concentration of toxic substances in the air once put the purification device at the shelter's vents in an extreme operating state. Frequent monitoring warnings from the control center were triggered.

Su Wu sat in the control center, feeling the cool breeze from the central air conditioner, the flow rate became slightly faster than usual, and a little nervousness was born in his heart.

He knew that the change in the central air conditioner came from the pressure of the external environment.

At this moment, the surface outside the shelter was completely unsuitable for human survival. The only thing he could rely on was the small space inside the shelter.

He waited for several hours with bated breath.

As the toxic dust from the outside gradually settled to the ground, the air gradually returned to normal.

The high-intensity purification device in the shelter returned to normal.

Su Wu's tense nerves finally relaxed.

He drank a glass of ice water with force to calm his somewhat frightened emotions. Then he asked the engineering team that was on standby to continue the excavation work on the third underground floor.

He went online to collect intelligence again.

At this time.

Su Wu realized that during the few hours when he was in danger, other people were not doing well either.

First, there was a large-scale disconnection in the network. More than three-fifths of the world's regions were disconnected from the Internet.

Specifically in Jianghe City, almost all the shelters in the urban area were out of touch. Only a small number of people in remote suburban areas were still active on the Internet.

And even if they were active, it did not mean that their situation in reality was good.

There was a person in a shelter in the suburbs of Jianghe City who was lucky enough to survive because he had an oxygen generator and enough oxygen tanks. And except for him, there were no other living people in his shelter.

Hundreds of people died of suffocation and poison gas.
