Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

Day 5 of survival in the apocalypse.

It was exactly six o'clock in the morning.

Today's breakfast consisted of millet porridge, stir-fried zucchini, and a can of ribbonfish for each person.

The inventory consumed 1.2 jin of millet, 5 zucchini, and 7 cans of ribbonfish.

Millet porridge provides carbohydrates, canned ribbonfish contains high-quality protein and fat, and stir-fried zucchini ensures the intake of vitamins and fiber.

The portions are plentiful and filling. A large bowl of thick porridge, along with meat and vegetables, is enough to sustain you through a morning of high-intensity activity.

Because they had to go out to find supplies, they only ate two meals a day, morning and evening, and when they went out, they would take some loose snacks with them to replenish their energy.

Lin Shuangshuang ate her porridge, watched the news, and occasionally turned her head to look out the window.

The torrential rain hasn't stopped yet.

Lorna was worried about this too. "The sky is like it's bursting open, the rain is pouring down like a waterfall. Will we even be able to go out today?"

Wu Zhe slurped up the millet porridge, which was especially delicious when cooked to perfection. "We can't get out, can we? People would be washed away by this rain if they went out."

Gao Lei agreed, "How about we take a day off?"

It's not that I don't want to go out, but the weather is too bad to be suitable for going out.

As they spoke, the three of them stood in a neat row and turned to look at the person in the main seat.

Huo Ling adjusted the channel, raised his chin, and showed them the screen. "The whole world is experiencing extreme weather. We can't get out of this door today."

The three of them turned to look at the screen in unison, and sure enough, it was so.

Huo Ling uploaded the latest news from the internet, which were all updates posted by netizens. The official website was now down, and only some amateur reporters were still reporting on the situation. Other people's videos were basically just screams.

Run!! Run upstairs quickly!!

[Water!! The water's rising! Evacuate! Evacuate!!]

[Oh my god! The building across the street has collapsed!]

【SOS! SOS! This is Xingfu Community, the location is here [location], there are still over a hundred people here!! Can anyone help?】

My husband went out to find supplies and hasn't returned yet. Has anyone seen him in the 36th block? He was wearing a black jacket and a blue hat!

My friend is in City C. What's the situation there? Is anyone still alive?

……

Reality is in chaos, and so is the internet. Due to the loss of control, many videos that couldn't be posted before the apocalypse are now out in front of everyone.

This torrential rain brought the crisis to a head. Those who escaped thought they could finally catch their breath, but instead, they were met with an even greater disaster.

The living room fell silent instantly.

All that remains are the cries for help, screams, and desperate sobs from those videos.

Wu Zhe couldn't bear to watch those videos anymore. "They made my heart race and made me feel terrible."

Gao Lei remained unusually silent.

Lorna gasped. "Wow, in the face of death, all beings are truly equal..."

They were lucky.

The coastal areas were originally the most severely affected, as the mutated marine life coming ashore was extremely dangerous. Coupled with earthquakes and hordes of zombies, the survivors who stayed in the city were no different from canned meat.

Sooner or later they will be devoured by zombies or mutated animals. Unless they activate their superpowers, they might be able to escape.

Those who were among the first to flee to the countryside successfully escaped the first wave of disaster, but this world-class torrential rain presented them with their second test.

Fortunately, they could still run up the mountain. Survivors posted survival tutorial videos, moving their families and belongings to new locations.

One of the most popular bloggers, whose ID is Xiaotian and whose profile picture is a black dog emoji, successfully and safely transferred his entire family of eight.

"Don't run blindly! Think it over carefully before you move! If the water level rises too quickly to evacuate, seek shelter in a nearby high-rise building. If there's still time, move to higher ground as fast as possible!"

"Avoid routes that are prone to landslides near the village! Also, avoid bridges!"

The middle-aged man in the video, wearing a black raincoat, his face soaked with rain and his body covered in mud, said, "Oh my god, I almost lost my life. Anyway, I hope everyone is okay. Let's all unite and get through this together. Don't cry, save your energy for escaping!"

He said that as long as he is alive, there is hope. Once the floodwaters recede, he can go home. As long as the land is still there, he can continue to grow crops, so he won't starve!

The video then ends with the camera shutting down automatically due to low battery.

Their family is certainly lucky.

Most people are in a pretty bad situation.

Lin Shuangshuang frowned deeply as she watched, but the IP addresses of these videos were all far away.

Several videos played in a row.

Suddenly, an official announcement popped up, stating that personnel were being organized to rescue the survivors, and rescue teams were immediately established in various locations.

And a bounty reward was issued.

[Each person rescued earns ten points, which can be used for purchases within the city. Rescuing specialized individuals, such as doctors, teachers, and engineers, doubles the points. Rescuing more than a certain number of people grants special support rewards.]

[The following are the coordinates of various safe bases. Please proceed to the nearest survivor base for safety, provided you ensure your own safety.]

This news came out.

It is clear that the authorities were also caught off guard by this disaster and had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. To survive, the government and the public must cooperate.

The code word in this notice is this.

Lorna expressed her understanding, "Indeed, there are so many people with superpowers now, and no one is managing them. Who knows what might happen? It's better for order to be in the hands of those who care about the people, isn't it?"

Wu Zhe turned to look at Huo Ling, "Brother Huo, your family should still be in City A, right? The report says this is one of the five major bases. Are you going back?"

Gao Lei also looked at him.

Lin Shuangshuang also stared intently at Huo Ling's face.

Huo Ling toyed with the folding knife in his hand, then said coldly, "I'm not going."

He added casually, "They won't die even if all the men below die."

There's nothing to worry about.

Although all beings are equal in the face of death, the rich and powerful can avoid it. Unless they are particularly unlucky, they generally have several more chances of survival than ordinary people. City A is the safest.

After all, the security there is top-notch.

They can quickly suppress any problems, so it's no surprise that they were selected as one of the top five safe bases.

Wu Zhe and Gao Lei exchanged a glance and stopped asking about Huo Ling's family background, sensing that he was particularly sensitive about that aspect.

We can't talk much more.

Although I won't be going to City A, I can still take on some missions to earn some points. Who knows, they might come in handy later and I could exchange them for some supplies or something.

Huo Ling lifted her eyelids and glanced at them. "What, any of you want to leave?"

The three bystanders were so frightened that they shook their heads wildly.

joke.

Who would want to go to a safe base where they know nothing? They can't compare to a small castle, can they? They can stay here and still have enough freedom.

They don't want to be controlled by others in the base; they prefer to live a more comfortable life on their own.
