Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

Day 205 of the End of the World

The acid rain had completely stopped on the fourth day, and the extremely cold temperature still continued, but it basically remained at around minus 30 degrees Celsius, and snow began to fall again.

Gu Tongwan was wearing a black down jacket and thick leather gloves. After exhaling a breath of white air, he squinted his eyes and took out a snowmobile.

She really didn't expect that one day she would be able to drive this thing openly in the city.

Gu Tongwan's arm was completely healed after ten days. The injury was not serious, and he insisted on drinking the spiritual spring water in the space every day, so his recovery speed was faster than before.

During the week she had been in Hai City, she had initially been driving her electric scooter around the city. She had hoped that there might be other survivors in the city, but no matter where she went, she only saw mutated rats and wild cats. Occasionally, she would see some mutants, and these mutants were extremely ferocious. For example, the bloodthirsty black cat she had seen before had turned into a human-like and cat-like monster. Its body shape had not changed much, but its movement speed was extremely fast, and its sharp claws could easily leave claw marks on the concrete wall.

We also encountered giant spiders, some as big as a fist, with legs that could be more than 30 centimeters long when stretched out, and they could pop out from different corners of the house to attack people. The largest one was once as big as a frying pan, and it was a female spider, and the spider silk it sprayed was as tough as fishing line.

Not only were there mutated cats and mutated spiders, but there were even mutated giant parrots. At first, I got shocked when I met the blue and pink parrot, which was as big as an eagle. The main reason was that this parrot actually spoke human language and even cursed the quintessence of Chinese culture. I really don't know what kind of person its master was before the end of the world.

However, the talking parrot was not aggressive, so Gu Tongwan ignored the big parrot. He only saw it standing on the roof of the shop, repeating the same sentence, and then flapping its wings and flying away.

Wearing goggles and a mask, I drove a snowmobile in the center of the huge city. The fastest speed could reach over 80 miles per hour. I felt the cold wind hitting my face like a knife, and my ears were almost frozen off.

Gu Tongwan drove for about half an hour and traveled about thirty kilometers. This place was close to the original CBD business center of Hai City, but all the buildings before the end of the world had collapsed. All the houses had pieces of steel bars exposed due to the earthquake, and the scene was a scene of broken walls and ruins.

I haven't seen the sun for a week. The sky here is always gloomy, and there is even white fog not far away. The visibility is extremely low when driving in the blizzard.

Shortly after the car was put into the space, Aoao and Tutu also caught up.

The two dogs' fur is really thick. Seeing their fur stretched out in the cold wind, they look so majestic, like the kings of beasts.

I walked forward and stroked the thick dog's head. The hair on it felt like high-quality wool when it was not attacking. Only the hair on the back felt a little rough.

She had been exploring the route some time ago and wanted to find survivors of the earthquake. However, after searching for a while, she realized a reality: this place could be called a mirage, but not all of it, because according to the mirage on the map, some places had disappeared inexplicably. Not only the iconic ocean, but also the duplex apartment complex that was completed a few years ago and was sold for more than 200,000 yuan per square meter due to real estate speculation was not within the range.

After a period of exploration, she came to a conclusion that due to the movement of the earth's crust plates (the author is talking nonsense about this, just take a look at it.), black hole landslides occurred in Haishi and Jiangcheng at the same time, and the movement of the plates caused the city, ocean and part of the area to be dislocated. The place where Gu Tongwan is located may be only half or a fraction of the original area of ​​Haishi. The actual majority of Haishi's area and the ocean may have moved to other places.

The CBD center here has been destroyed beyond recognition, but Gu Tongwan still plans to try her luck. After all, she is now trapped in this strange space of Hai City. No matter how hard she drives these days, she cannot reach the highway on the provincial road, let alone find other entrances to get out.

However, after a week of exploration, Gu Tongwan discovered something creepy. There were no plants in the city, whether they were trees, potted plants or any green plants. It was as if they had disappeared in the city overnight.

Even if it is acid raining, there shouldn't be no grass growing.

Later, she took out several smart hydroponic planting machines that she had seized in the space before, and tried to put the mint seeds that were easiest to grow into them. However, after a week, there was no sign of them sprouting. Later, she tried to plant some hydroponic plants, but there was still no sign of germination.

Mutated animals can grow wildly here, but plants seem to be "unable to adapt to the local climate and soil" and have lost all vitality, causing the city to be lifeless, like a "lost city" that one can never get out of.

She also asked the system whether she had entered another fragment of time and space, and whether this world might belong to another dimension, but the system denied it and patiently explained that the space was indeed one of the remnants of the fragment of time and space. Due to its incompleteness, space distortion occurred, but in essence it was a real mirage before the end of the world.

"When can we go out?" Gu Tongwan asked with a frown.

[At present, the Starry Sky System has been rushing to repair the space loophole, please wait patiently. 】

Gu Tongwan held his forehead and couldn't help asking, "How long will it take? It can't be three years, five years, or ten years, right?"

[………No, the longest recorded time for repairing a space vulnerability in history is 1,065 days, and the shortest is 48 hours.]

More than half of the forty-eight hours had passed, which meant that she had to prepare for the worst, which was the possibility of staying in this space with no survivors for three years, but perhaps with luck she could get out tomorrow.

Gu Tongwan is an optimist. She decides to make the best of it. Besides, this place is not as peaceful as it seems. It is enough to worry her to be on guard against various mutant beasts every day. If she changes her mindset, perhaps she can try to tap into other resources here. Even if it is an empty city, there should be resources that can be used.

So this week I continued to survey the terrain, direction and the most marginal intersection of the entire sea city, just to have a general idea in my mind and to know exactly what kind of space I was trapped in.

After regaining his consciousness, Gu Tongwan took off his goggles and stepped into the shopping mall that was once bustling with people before the end of the world. But in fact, the five floors above the originally eight-story department store had been cut in half, and half of the mall had collapsed. Only the stairs and counters could be barely seen in the other half.

When the tsunami occurred, Hai City was caught off guard by the flood. It is said that more than half of the city’s supplies were not evacuated in time. After the extreme heat came, the flood receded quickly, but when you walked in, you could still feel the thick, dried silt under your feet.

There was not enough light inside, so Gu Tongwan put on night vision goggles and this time held a Tang sword in her hand. Since the last encounter with the giant spider, she found that although the three-edged military bayonet was convenient to carry, it was only limited to piercing. If she encountered a large mutant beast, the sharper Tang sword would be more convenient to use.

As soon as he stepped in, he suddenly heard a strange cry. The cry seemed to come from the corner. Gu Tongwan pursed his lips and met a pair of eyes glowing with faint green light in the darkness opposite.
