Chapter 750: Stop Looking! ( 1 )
The man was startled and looked at everyone in the room. Besides him and several people struggling to stay awake, the rest of them had frozen to death in their sleep.
"I shouldn’t... have left..." As he uttered these words, he felt his eyelids become heavier and heavier.
"So sleepy... I will just sleep for a moment... just for a moment..."
His voice grew softer and softer until no words could be heard anymore. In less than a minute, he breathed his last.
The same situations occurred in all places, including other countries.
Far in the Land of Snow, a strange-shaped plane suddenly appeared in the sky. Besides the high-pitched zapping sound, there was no other sign that something had just appeared out of nowhere.
The next moment, a beam of light came out from the bottom of the plane and hit the ground. The light only lasted for a few seconds.
As soon as the light dimmed, a group of Matkuna elite soldiers, led by a Matkuna General, appeared on the vast white snow. The Matkuna General’s size was triple that of the soldiers and exuded a heavy pressure.
The group walked for a while and stopped in front of a massive cliff. The Matkuna General opened its palm, and an item similar to a pyramid suddenly appeared.
It poked the item a few times, and suddenly, an array of lights appeared under their feet. The array flashed brightly for a second. When the light dimmed, the group had disappeared from the spot.
At the same time, inside Jiao Lizhi’s Space, Jiang Ziyi suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his sleep.
"Gaia, open the map."
The next moment, a blue screen appeared in front of him, and a complicated maze appeared on it. In the maze, a group of purple dots was blinking nonstop and kept changing locations.
20 minutes later, the dots finally stopped moving.
Seeing this, Jiang Ziyi said, "Mark this location."
"Marking the target location. Location has been marked. Target locked."
"After waiting for so many years, they are finally here. This time, we must stop them. Otherwise, we have to start all over again."
"Great Commander, I’m afraid that you won’t have many chances left. Nishkrayan and my energy could only send you across time and space one more time."
"Also, your chip could only withstand at most 2 space jumps. More than that, and all of the data stored in your chip will be destroyed."
When Jiang Ziyi heard this, his expression turned solemn.
He was not afraid of losing all of his memories. After all, he had lived for so long and experienced countless deaths that he was no longer afraid of death.
What worried him was Du Fengyan and Du Beiye.
He promised her that he would protect and take care of them. He couldn’t break his promise and let her down again.
As past memories surged in his mind, Jiang Ziyi took a deep breath to calm down and said, "I know."
While the raging snowstorm was taking countless lives outside, a hidden danger lurked in the shadows. Besides him, no one was aware of the arrival of the Matkuna General.
At this moment, Wen Hanli was reporting the Lin’an City Base’s situation to Xun Che.
"Commander, the temperature had hit -5℃ this morning. I had ordered the central heater in the farmland area to be turned on. As for the central heater in the residential areas, we will wait until the temperature drops lower before we turn it on."
Xun Che nodded and said, "Send people to keep an eye on the water pipes and make sure there will be no damage."
During the construction, they had made some preparations.
Instead of using a common method of burying the water pipes underground, they put the water pipes inside insulated metal pipes.
These metal pipes were connected to the central heater. As long as the central heater was turned on, the water pipes wouldn’t freeze.
"Understood," Wen Hanli nodded and made a note in his small notebook.
After thinking for a moment, Xun Che added, "The temperature might keep dropping, and some people might not have enough coal or firewood and suffer from hypothermia."
"Increase the patrols, especially in the third, fourth, and fifth ring areas. If they don’t have enough firewood, take those stored in the warehouse and distribute them until we turn the central heater on."
"Commander, should we open the cafeteria?" Wen Hanli asked.
In their current situation, people would rather stay at home and not go out. Because of this, they didn’t open the cafeteria today.
But most of the residents didn’t cook and mostly bought food at the cafeteria. If they closed it for too long, those people might have to eat cold food to survive.
While eating cold food wouldn’t kill them, in the long term, they might suffer from health problems. It would cost more to solve this problem later. After all, medicines were rare and limited.
Xun Che thought for a while before he asked, "How much fuel do we have?"
Hearing this, Wen Hanli understood his meaning. "The zombie corpses should be enough for us to last for 11 months if we turn on all of the central heaters from now."
"Old Jin said that this winter will last from 6 to 9 months at most. We have more than enough fuel," Xun Che muttered softly.
After a moment of pause, he said, "Send the order. Turn on all the central heaters, including the cafeteria and health center."
"Understood."
After their brief discussion, Wen Hanli left the office and returned to his own office. Although the base was locked down, they still had a lot of work to do.
At the same time, in the Green Lake Base, Wei Yunli and Xie Zhou were overwhelmed with work. This base was established less than a month ago.
Even with the rules and enough manpower, there were still people who tried to challenge the authorities and caused trouble here and there.
