Chapter 144: Various aspects of human life
Chapter 144 The state of the world
Put everything you need to bring with you in the shelter into the back of your Dimensional Backpack.
Qi Yuan used the teleportation scroll again and returned to Zhong Maiyun's shelter.
The temperature here is also very high, reaching 45°C, and the heat wave is rolling in.
Today's survivors should generally live in this high temperature, and even the temperature in some areas is even higher.
Not everyone has collected enough ice and food. When progress falls behind step by step, too many people die.
Qi Yuan went deep into the ground through the long passage, and only after entering the underground shelter did he feel that his breathing became easier.
After all, the underground shelter is located several meters underground, so it is not affected by the high temperature outside.
The temperature here is already around 20℃.
Whether it is crops or animals, they all live very comfortably.
But not everyone lives such a life.
놇Qi Yuan eats high-quality meat every day, exercises to shoot bows and arrows, earns thousands of spiritual coins, walks with turtles, and teases bees...
The outside world has already stirred up troubles!
…
In a level three shelter somewhere.
A green man with a fat body but thin cheeks was hiding in the corner of the shelter, breathing loudly.
He was only wearing a pair of shorts, and a lot of sweat came out of his skin at a speed visible to the naked eye, forming streams of water and sliding down his body.
On the stone slabs on the ground, sweat has accumulated into a small pool.
There were several wooden barrels around, which seemed to contain ice cubes, but they had all melted under the high temperature and even turned into warm water.
Qing 뎃 is holding a piece of smoked black meat steak in his hand. The meat looks extremely hard, and the tooth marks are particularly distinct.
놇In such a high temperature, even though he has not eaten for two days, he still has no stomach 놋
Lack of water, electrolyte imbalance and other problems made him unable to help but drink a lot of water, but the situation did not improve in any way.
His face was flushed, his vision was blurred, his heart was beating much faster than usual, and he even had cramps and colic from time to time.
If you are a professional doctor, you will know that his symptoms are many.
A mixture of high temperature illnesses.
Heat stroke, heat cramps, and even angina and myocardial infarction.
His consciousness gradually blurred, and his life slowly passed...
…
Somewhere in a desert area filled with flying sand, in a level three shelter covered with gray.
A middle-aged woman was lying on her back on the floor, her face was pale, and scarlet flesh was exposed on her chapped lips, but the blood seemed to have dried up.
There was no expression in his dull eyes, his body had fallen into a state of shock, and his body machinery had begun to shut down.
If there is no more water, her life will come to an end...
Beside her, the "Mist Survival Manual" was open, and in her hand, she held a spirit coin tightly.
The "Mist Survival Manual" opened, showing the page of the chat channel.
The last words were: "Tsk tsk, you only have one spirit coin? That won't work. I only sell this water for six spirit coins! Hahaha!"
…
In a desolate plain, a collapsed mountain of shelter, a middle-aged man with a skinny body was sitting there with a dull look.
His shelter has been destroyed by wild beasts, the "Mist Survival Manual" has also been damaged, and the oil lamps in the house have also been extinguished...
Although he will not die immediately, but how should he go next?
Wandering in this vast misty world? Or build a new shelter yourself? Officially starting to survive in the wilderness?
…
A level 4 shelter somewhere.
The basement is filled with ice cubes and a large amount of ingredients are stored, including a full range of meat, staple food, vegetables, and fruits.
The survivor lay leisurely on the ice, drank an ice-cold drink, and counted the thousands of spiritual coins in the box, feeling very happy.
But the next moment, the ice blocks that reached the ceiling suddenly collapsed and were covered with dense ice blocks.
In his horrified eyes, blood overflowed from the broken ice...
…
Like in the human world, various situations happen.
But more of them were like the fat young man who died of heat, and the Chinese woman who died of thirst.
Although many methods are taught on the forum, almost all methods are based on the premise of level four shelter.
All need to be centered on the basement.
For Level 3 shelters, there is no basement to hide in.
Moreover, the foundation of the shelter is entirely made of stone, making it impossible to dig out the basement manually.
Some smart ones, or those with favorable conditions, dig burrows in the open space around the shelter.
But with just one person's power, it is almost impossible to excavate a space for one person to live in for a long time in a short time.
Some people are looking for caves to live in, and they can barely survive.
But most of the survivors in Level 3 shelters can only endure the high temperature of 45℃.
The impact of high temperature on the body is more frightening than the coldness of the cold snap.
In the high-temperature disaster, the gap between survivors is getting wider and wider.
The well-prepared survivors have completely built a 100-square-meter basement into an ice cellar, which is filled with ice cubes.
Now I am wrapped in a quilt, hiding in the ice cellar and drinking ice-cold watermelon juice, still sighing.
"Why are disasters in this foggy world getting easier and easier? They are not as difficult as the cold wave!"
But many people also cannot collect the 1,000 spirit coins required to upgrade the fourth-level shelter.
They tried to sell their resources, but found that they did not even have many good-level items.
The survivors were divided into two groups with the fourth-level shelter as the boundary.
Most of the survivors in the third-level shelter could not survive.
And the fourth-level shelter was not affected by high temperature because it had a basement deep underground.
Some survivors even had the "Shelter Transformation Scroll" to directly transform the shelter into an "underground shelter" or an "underwater shelter".
In this way, the high temperature could not affect them even more.
Under the pressure of this situation, the survival form of the survivors gradually changed.
The gathering places of survivors also began to form on a small scale.
This gathering place was not a benign gathering place formed by using the "Shelter Merge Scroll" or the "Ally Scroll".
Instead, they directly used the "teleportation scroll", abandoned their own shelters, and contributed resources to other survivors in order to seek their own survival.
Moreover, before everyone noticed, several items appeared in the public store.
[Name: Slavery Scroll (Good Grade)
Function: Master-Slave Agreement, after use, control the life and death of slaves.
Introduction: Unable to control thoughts, but control life and death. ]
[Name: Control Scroll (Excellent Grade)
Function: Master-Slave Contract, after use, control their behavior to a certain extent, and control life and death at the same time.
Introduction: A higher level of control. ]
The prices of the two items are 100 spirit coins and 1,000 spirit coins respectively.
In the dark, it seems that there is a kind of power that monitors this world at all times.
Perhaps... This inevitable development process has occurred thousands of times?
