The world enters the age of mythology.

"Captain, we're getting close to our destination!" The soldier standing beside him suddenly said, "In that community... I don't know if the rescue target who lived there once is still alive."

Lu Yiming's eyes narrowed, "Let's go, let's... go!"

……

Liu Qingshan, 42 years old, is a famous physicist and material scientist. He spent the first half of his life on high-energy batteries and made many achievements. He is known as one of the outstanding physicists of the 21nd century.

But in the eyes of the Western ruling class, Liu Qingshan's skin color means that he can never be his own, so the truth of the whole world is hidden from him.

The reason is very simple. In the face of a world-destroying disaster, the number of places to survive is limited, and even their own people are not enough. How can they possibly tolerate the next yellow-skinned person in their eyes?

So a few weeks before the disaster, the research institute where Liu Qingshan was abruptly shut down, and his original university also dismissed him for an inexplicable reason...

Liu Qingshan was driven back to the country at a loss, feeling resentful in his heart.

Of course, the research conditions in China are much better now, so there is no need to just stay abroad.It is not impossible to find a vocational education and work with peace of mind, and there is no need to be discriminated against.He can also be regarded as a big bull in the industry, and it is impossible to lose his job no matter what.

But it is very strange that when he is looking for a job, he has repeatedly hit a wall. The domestic laboratories have also been closed in large numbers, and all the original old colleagues cannot be contacted, which makes him puzzled.

In fact, this kind of high-end talent has a place to live in the Xia Kingdom, but he came back too late, and the S-level disaster broke out too early, and in the case of insufficient preparation, it will be a short while and a half. been forgotten...

Until today, Professor Huang in the research institute suddenly remembered this, so he asked Lu Yiming and the others to try to rescue him.

If people are really gone, then there is no way... This is life!

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no sign of stopping at all.

Liu Qingshan's house is on the top floor of the entire residential building, and the floors below are almost flooded. More and more survivors realize that the flood may not stop, and they all run to the top floor to live as long as they can. how long.

A group of crazy thugs have smashed the security door and occupied their house for two full days.

The most important thing is that this group of crazy thugs robbed things and played with his daughter in front of him.The despicability of human nature is undoubtedly revealed at this moment. Anyway, everyone is going to die. It is better to play something more exciting before dying.

"Beasts! You beasts!"

The veins on Liu Qingshan's forehead jumped, and if it wasn't for the whole body being tied up tightly, he would not hesitate to rush up to bite off the other's flesh and blood, even if he was stabbed to death!

"Old man, you bark! You bark again! Did you hear your daughter's tragic bark? How delightful!"

But the situation at this moment is too desperate, the whole world is almost flooded, and most of the people who survive have become crazy beasts.Hearing her daughter's cries, Liu Qingshan couldn't help shedding tears.

Suicide together after this, yes...suicide!

This is already the best option...

"boom!"

Suddenly, he heard a burst of gunfire.

A blood hole appeared in the head of the little gangster who was guarding the door, and his brains splashed everywhere.After hearing the gunshot, the man lying on his daughter shivered violently, and quickly found a bunker to hide.

Immediately afterwards, a large group of burly men in uniform rushed in outside the door, and slapped all these thugs on the ground with the butts of their guns.

Bullets are precious and difficult to produce, and in the face of this group of incompetent thugs, you can save as much as you can.When a soldier shoots someone, he can knock one down in a second.

"Are you Professor Liu Qingshan?" Lu Yiming asked.

Liu Qingshan nodded subconsciously.

Lu Yiming glanced at it and put a dress on the girl.I've seen a lot of this kind of thing recently, so it's not surprising.

He manipulated a flying knife and drew a silver light, accurately piercing the culprit's eye socket.

"Ah!" A pig-like scream echoed in the room.

Suspended in the air and automatically accelerated the flying knife, Liu Qingshan was slightly dumbfounded, and he swallowed involuntarily.The trajectory equation of the flying knife pops up in my mind, and all this is completely contrary to physics.

But the reality has actually happened.

Immediately afterwards, he realized that his great revenge had been avenged, and when he saw the thugs rolling on the ground, a wave of hostility erupted in his heart.He rushed up frantically and kicked the opponent a dozen times.

"Let you go! Let you go!"

Then he hugged his daughter and cried uncontrollably.

His wife had been thrown into the flood by the thugs, and only one daughter survived.

The reason why he is still alive is because these thugs want to humiliate this former intellectual...

Lost hope, as if all of a sudden a few decades older.

"Mr. Liu, the hope of survival has not been completely destroyed. I hope you can summon the courage to live well."

Lu Yiming looked at this decadent professor and persuaded him: "Our shelters currently have a total of 15 people, and the population is still increasing. There are more than 200 shelters across the country. If everyone unites, we can With the hope of rebuilding civilization."

"Going to the sanctuary to contribute your knowledge will be treated well. You should also think about it for the sake of your daughter. And the world has changed and it has shown a side that has never been seen before. The supernatural phenomenon has become very strange. Only by living can we explore the original appearance of the world."

I don't know which sentence touched the middle-aged man's heartstrings. He wiped away his tears, nodded stunned, and then started to meticulously organize the manuscripts and the data on the computer.

Only the trembling hands showed that the middle-aged man was not at peace.

"How...how did the flying knife do it just now?" he asked curiously.

"A little special superpower. After returning to the shelter, someone will explain to you what happened in this world."

Chapter 77 A Room of Survivors

Lu Yiming showed a little bit of his superpower. The knife was spinning and jumping in the air, as if it had its own consciousness.

After confirming that it wasn't magic, Liu Qingshan was a little dumbfounded, this damn... There is actually such a thing in the world!So much so that he sat down on the stool, motionless in a daze.

"Is this a superpower?"

Faced with this scene, Lu Yiming had long been surprised.He has rescued several high-level intellectuals with closed information, and when he first witnessed superpowers, he always had this ghostly expression.

"Cough, can I pack my things first?" Liu Qingshan struggled to stand up from the stool and shook his head. He returned to a room and packed all the high-end experimental instruments into the suitcase.These experimental instruments are the capital of future research.

Lu Yiming nodded, "Let's go, give Professor Liu some time to organize his things."

He left a few soldiers here to help organize things, and led the remaining team to search the community for a while.It's always good to be able to rescue more people by making a trip all the way here.

Under the threat of flooding, the people who were still alive were basically concentrated on the top floor.But in this environment, very few remain kind.

In fact, the mental state of these survivors is easy to distinguish. The group full of violent desires has a very high degree of xenophobia. There are always some differences from the group that maintains order. After the two sides contact, they can be distinguished at a glance.

For Lu Yiming, as long as he committed a crime, he basically gave up the rescue, and the selection criteria were also very loose, which was based on the subjective judgment of the rescue captain.

After about ten minutes, I finally found a room with a complete door.

Boom, knock, knock on the door.

"Who? What!" A man's voice came out.

"We are a rescue team. If you are willing to come with us, hurry up and pack up and leave." Lu Yiming said, the man seemed to be watching them from behind the cat's eye.

But listening to the tone, you can tell that this is a normal person.

If they are violent, they will be extremely repelled when they see other teams, and they will even scold them for leaving immediately.

But this man is just asking with a cautious attitude, the probability of being a normal person is high.After all, the whole world is not the same as before, so caution is necessary.

The man hesitated for a while, and seemed a little suspicious.

Several soldiers behind him showed their weapons and military uniforms.

"Outside... Is there really a shelter?" The man asked again, believing it a little.

Lu Yiming said: "Of course it exists, you can also choose not to believe it, stay here all the time, and wait for the flood to fill up and drown everything."

"If you believe us, just leave with us."

There was a murmur across the door, and it sounded like there were many people inside, not just a family of three.Some people even got excited about themselves.

After about 2 minutes, there was a soft "squeak", and the anti-theft door was opened.

When he walked into the room, Lu Yiming was shocked. There were more than 30 people in this room, both men and women, and several children aged three to five.

It is estimated that more than a dozen families have all united together to resist the thugs outside.Although this is not a long-term solution, it is the only way to survive until now.

When these men and women saw the serious soldiers, they were emotionally dying.

"Great, we're finally saved, and finally... someone has come to save us!"

"I want to ask, where is the sanctuary?" Some people are still vigilant, questioning whether the sanctuary actually exists.

"What the hell is going on with this flood? Why is there such a big flood! The torrential rain has been falling for two months in the sky! How could there be such a big flood..."

Some even asked them indignantly: "Why didn't you come to the rescue earlier, what did you do in the first place!"

Talking and talking, several aunties sat on the ground and howled. This period of time was really tormenting. There was no electricity and no external communication. Cast anger on these rescuers.

For such a scene, Lu Yiming was not angry, he waved his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet: "Everyone, after returning to the shelter if you have any questions, someone will answer it! What I can tell you now is that the old order has collapsed. Now, the new order has not really been established. All rescue operations are our own initiative, not compulsory."

"It doesn't even matter whether you are taken to the shelter or not, there are no hard requirements. You have to understand that."

As soon as these words came out, the aunts quickly closed their mouths, and there was a look of horror in their eyes.Yes, the old order has collapsed, and it is no longer possible to ask the army to be like it used to be.

"Okay, let's not talk nonsense. If you are willing to leave, take your personal belongings away. I will give you 10 minutes to prepare. Find a way to take away all valuable things. If you don't want to leave, stay here. We won't force it either."

After hearing these words, the first ones who were about to leave were the aunts who were crying on the ground. Even if they were warned viciously, they were still willing to believe Lu Yiming and followed.Because there is simply no hope of staying here.

One of the aunts took her little grandson and quickly returned to the room to organize things.Immediately afterwards, the chubby little boy ran to Lu Yiming's side and handed a lollipop to him as an apology for the scene just now.

Lu Yiming took the lollipop, touched the little boy's head, smiled, and didn't care too much about these aunts.Everyone has their own emotions, and it is understandable to complain when they are excited.

On the contrary, those young people stood there hesitating, discussing carefully, not knowing whether to believe them.

Lu Yiming asked the middle-aged man in the lead: "Are there any similar survivor teams with normal order in your community? We only rescue those who still retain morality."

"I have no idea."

The middle-aged man showed a bitter smile, "There should be very few, most of the people on the top floor are crazy thugs. With limited living resources, food is very tight, and the population is a burden. I saw with my own eyes that on the opposite floor, Someone was pushed into the flood."

Thinking of this, the muscles all over his body tightened, and his Adam's apple twitched involuntarily.This kind of thing is terrible.

Chapter 78 Return to the Refuge

The man sighed and said, "Actually, in three days, we won't even have our rations, and we don't know what to do by then. We can only starve to death, or wait for the flood to come up."

Lu Yiming nodded and saw a fire burning in a room. Since the electricity had been cut off, they could only cook through the wood-burning flames.Fortunately, there are a lot of wooden furniture in the room, and if it is not enough, I can go to the neighbor's house next door to disassemble some and come back, and I have barely persisted until now.

"How do you choose, go with us, or stay here? Are you the leader here?"

"Let's... go." The man gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

As a result, needless to say, this group of people finally packed up and entered the steel motorboat.

The trunk of the ship was originally used to carry cargo, but now it is carrying so many people, plus the electronic products that I found at the beginning, it has been a little overloaded.Thirty people were crowded together like pigs, and only a few children were allowed to stay in the open cab.

"Be patient, it's only an hour away!"

"This is naturally bearable, a child can do it without incident," said the capable man.

After loading the box of survivors, Lu Yiming drove the boat again to the building of Professor Liu Qingshan, preparing to take the father and daughter away together.

He suddenly found that a little soldier who was with him couldn't help but shed tears.Immediately afterwards, this emotion infected more soldiers, and everyone's eyes became moist.

"Xiao Guo, why are you crying? Like a bitch!" Lu Yiming asked.

"I don't know why I'm crying, but I just couldn't hold it anymore!" The soldier named Guo Weiqiang wiped his eyes with his sleeve.This is the largest group of survivors they have rescued in the past few days...

More than 30 living people!

The more thugs you see, the more numb you become. Shooting to kill is like killing a chicken.But now suddenly encountering a group of normal people, including the elderly, children, and women, it is especially touching in this doomsday state.

In fact, it was only two months away from the normal life that used to be, and it seemed like yesterday, it was gone all of a sudden.

But in memory, it seems to exist, so clearly.

The soldier's voice was slightly choked, "It just feels...it's the right thing to do...I shouldn't be hiding in the shelter, I should rescue more people!"

Except for the sound of the torrential rain, no one spoke.

"Yeah...that's right." Lu Yiming sighed.

Although rescuing more people will share the survival supplies in the shelter, these people probably do not have enough work skills, and they are not big scientists, and they will not bring much benefit.

But human beings should not be absolutely selfish and do nothing just to live for themselves.When you have a chance to survive, you can just watch others die, and you can tell intuitively that this is wrong.

Humans lose empathy, are they still real humans?
