#300 - Chapter 300 Geomagnetic Anomalies
April 27th.
Almost half a month has passed since the last attack on the Green Source Base.
This period has been relatively stable, with no more messy incidents occurring.
The transportation of fuel from Zhu City and coal from Shan City has resumed.
Meanwhile, the Green Source Base in Mentang Town has been developing rapidly during this time.
The walls of the main Green Source Base have been heightened to a terrifying thirty-five meters!
This height is equivalent to more than ten stories of an ordinary commercial building!
Standing under such walls, humans can fully appreciate the mountain-like grandeur.
The sub-base is not far behind, with walls already built to a height of twenty meters!
And the construction hasn't stopped.
The busy personnel are still working diligently every day, with a final target of at least thirty meters!
Inside the sub-base, even more buildings have appeared.
Many that were just frameworks are now taking shape, and with the continued construction by various personnel, it is believed that a more complete base will be seen soon.
On the watchtower of the main base wall.
Qin Jin rarely ascended here today, overlooking the entire main base and sub-base.
Only from this position can you see the entire panorama of the base now.
From his current leader's office, the view out the window is basically just the high walls.
There's no choice, for safety, he had to sacrifice the distant scenery.
"Almost there."
Standing on the watchtower, Qin Jin, with his hands behind his back, unconsciously spoke his thoughts.
If he remembered correctly, tomorrow is the arrival time of the not-so-obvious disaster of geomagnetic disturbance.
He had just personally checked all the preparations made earlier throughout the base, storing all the supplies that might be affected.
Now he is waiting for this disaster to come.
"Nothing to sigh about, take it as it comes, meet soldiers with weapons, and water with earth."
He seemed to be talking to himself.
After muttering these words, he left and returned to the leader's office.
Tonight, he needs to issue some instructions.
For example, no more helicopter outings, and other equipment with precision components should be turned off and stored as much as possible.
It is worth mentioning that during this period, he has been sending helicopters to scout and patrol around Fenghe County, and he actually discovered a strange situation.
The zombies outside, affected by some influence, are slowly moving towards Fenghe County!
This is a startling and unsettling discovery!
After half a month, the zombie density in Fenghe County has basically returned to the state before they pitted and killed more than 100,000 zombies, or even worse!
Not to mention that there are other zombies still coming!
He naturally informed all the cadres of this news.
Everyone also held a meeting to discuss the reasons, and there were various theories.
But the most acceptable theory in the end was that Mentang Town, due to the gathering of too many survivors, attracted some zombies from outside to gather here.
This statement was also agreed upon by almost all the cadres.
In this case, everyone decided to suspend the recruitment and registration of external survivors.
Starting some time ago, there have been almost no new survivors coming.
They guessed that the power of the previous leaflets had been exhausted.
It just so happens that Green Source has no plans to continue expanding its manpower.
There are already several thousand survivors living dependent on the Green Source Base!
Apart from a small number who can come to the sub-base to participate in construction work.
Most other survivors can only circle around Green Source to find supplies for trading.
According to some news Wang Yang heard.
Because supplies have become increasingly difficult to find recently, many survivors are planning to leave the Green Source area and migrate to other surrounding cities.
Many people also realize that the population density here is not small now, and supplies are difficult to find.
The pressure from zombies in the future may be great, so they simply took advantage of this time to trade with Green Source for a certain amount of food and took the initiative to leave.
Qin Jin also knew about this.
He was naturally happy to see this.
He originally had a headache about the difficulty of managing too many people after the sub-base was built, as well as the pressure of food trading.
Now that the survivors outside are willing to leave on their own, he couldn't be happier.
Anyway, the talents they need have basically been absorbed into the sub-base, and some other survivors with better relationships have also been arranged into several residential areas.
Other survivors in the Green Source area are relatively more casual.
According to Qin Jin's plan.
As time goes on, the Green Source area will continue to build more residential areas such as No. 4, No. 5, No. 6, etc.
To meet the living and safety needs of the outer personnel.
"That's it, I've done my best with 997, survivors still need to rely on themselves to be the king."
After confirming that the preparations were done and the development of the base was not a big problem, he returned to work.
******
The next day.
Today is a sunny day, a good day to be in a good mood.
The construction of the sub-base has not stopped, and the early shuttle bus went to pick up the personnel from the residential area, plus the personnel of the sub-base, and they were already in full swing of construction before 7 o'clock.
In the leader's office.
Qin Jin had just finished his morning fitness exercise, and after washing up, he returned here to prepare for the arrival of the geomagnetic disturbance.
This kind of disaster is invisible and intangible, and needs to be judged by other environments and equipment.
On his desk, and in other places inside the base, several devices were placed respectively: fluxgate magnetometer, geomagnetic daily variation instrument, geomagnetic declination recorder, etc.
Some of these devices may be directly damaged by the disaster, and some high-quality ones may survive.
It doesn't matter, anyway, there are still many in the base warehouse.
Such supplies have been specially searched for both in peacetime and after the end of the world, and can be found in many geological survey and equipment companies.
Qin Jin glanced at the geomagnetic daily variation instrument placed in the office, and the numerical curve on it could already be seen showing slight fluctuations!
Sure enough, it's coming!
But he didn't panic, the direct impact of the change in the magnetic field on the human body will not be too great, and even most people will not have obvious feelings for several years.
Before the magnetic field change reached its peak, he picked up the walkie-talkie and released a message on the cadre channel:
"Everyone, try to stay in the base today, I have a bad feeling."
After speaking, he put down the walkie-talkie and said nothing more.
There is no need to think about how others think of what he said, just execute it.
He refocused his attention on the geomagnetic daily variation instrument next to him.
The curve fluctuation on the display screen is getting bigger and bigger, and in just ten minutes, it has more than doubled!
Qin Jin couldn't remember the exact time of the geomagnetic disturbance in his previous life.
He only remembered that he was still looking for food outdoors that day, and suddenly a burst of dizziness struck and quickly recovered.
Later, he learned about the incident through changes in the environment and word of mouth from other survivors.
The time is now 9:30 am.
Without the mind to deal with other things, he paid attention to the geomagnetic daily variation instrument until the device showed the curve breaking through the screen!
"Buzzing——!"
After a burst of electric noise, the daily variation instrument screen went black!
It's broken!
