Chapter 687: News From Our Home, a Small Harvest of Household Appliances! Part 1
Earth.
What a familiar and distant term.
Su Mo dreamed about returning to the magical capital and his tiny house countless times in the first two months in the wasteland.
Prosperous.
Peace.
The more a person lacked something, the more they would think about it.
These things were easily obtained on earth but were out of reach in the wasteland.
Su Mo, like everyone else, felt the same as any ordinary person felt.
He clenched the flyer in his hand.
His thoughts gradually drifted away to the boundless lands of the wasteland, through the vast starry sky, and arrived at a faint blue planet in the darkness.
June 7, AD 2022.
It had been three days since the first humans discovered a large number of asteroids headed toward earth through asteroid impact monitoring systems.
In three days, it was confirmed that the existing human technology could never avoid the catastrophe, and the world immediately changed drastically.
The borders of the old eras between states vanished overnight and were replaced with…
The establishment of the Human Common Disaster Resistance Alliance!
At the same time, under careful calculation and deployment, in order not to cause widespread panic, various places began secretly building super shelters capable of resisting the impending disaster.
Compared to other parts of the world, Huaxia fully utilized the adequacy of resources and location.
The shelters in the northern parts of Huaxia were mainly concentrated in the plateau areas. With an excellent natural terrain as the foundation, underground s.p.a.ces were further expanded to accommodate every citizen in the north.
The shelters in the southern parts of Huaxia were mainly concentrated in the coastal areas. They used their infrastructure and economic strength as their backbone, working day and night without rest.
There were only four months, from June to October.
Thirty-four large shelters were miraculously built along the coast within that period.
Amongst them was the largest sanctuary known as Thick Ground Shelter No.1, which could accommodate up to 12 million people and had 300-meter-thick super alloy walls.
The underground shelter extended dozens of kilometers from top to bottom and would be as stable as a mountain even if there were monstrous waves on the outside.
The emergency design of the shelter could also further compress the interior s.p.a.ce to pack up to 15 million people into it without a problem.
Ranked below Thick Ground Shelter No.1 was Water Dragon Shelter No. 1, which could accommodate 10 million people. Further down the list was Water Dragon Shelter No.2, which came in third place, capable of accommodating 9 million people.
These two ma.s.sive shelters were located in the Eastern Province and occupied the central area of Shenzhen.
They both reached full capacity in just six days of opening, strongly showing their foundation.
Apart from these two large shelters, the greatly praised Mazu brothers occupied the fourth, fifth, and sixth positions on the list.
Mazu Shelter No.1, Mazu Shelter No.2, and Mazu Shelter No.3.
The maximum capacity of the design was 5 million people, which seemed significantly inferior to those ranked before it.
However, even by carefully rationing the resources of the Thick Ground Shelter No.1, their inventory would only last them eight years per person.
The people in the shelter would have to cut down and live on a tight budget if they could not produce enough supplies within eight years.
Compared to them, the Mazu Shelter No.1 to No.3 had an inventory that would last everyone at least 12 years.
The resources comparison clearly showed they would last longer, and they had more flexibility.
…
“This three-story building must have been directly transported here from Earth.
“The things inside haven’t been moved and came here as it was on Warth!”
It was hard to conclude that the building was from the earth just by the style of the staircase and the supplies inside it.
However, the piece of paper with the shelter leaflet printed on it was conclusive.
There was no need to guess nor doubt that this building was from the origin and place that everyone had been thinking about day and night!
Earth!
“It really is a Huaxia shelter’s flyer, but what’s the purpose of transporting it here?”
Guan Yuan took the flyer, read through it a few times, and confirmed the origin of the building.
More and more questions arose after one another.
“The time we transmigrated was one fifty-seven on December 22 in the year 2022, when the solar flares had erupted for one hour and forty minutes. The asteroids were five minutes away from earth.
“Logically, even if the building on the land were miraculously preserved, it would be impossible to be in such a perfect state after we transmigrated.
“Could it be possible that the building was also kept in another s.p.a.ce with people over the age limit?”
Guan Yuan’s face was doubtful as she recalled the moment before the sky filled with fire.
“It doesn’t seem to be stored in another dimension. Unless this other dimension has a similar environment to Earth that consists of sand and dust, it would be a little bit far-fetched to say that it was stored in another dimension.
“What’s more, those people who came after us didn’t seem to remember a different dimension. They all claimed they came here just like us after closing their eyes and opening them.”
A simple back-and-forth conversation easily deduced the problem within the suggested possibility.
However, upon the mention of it…
The two immediately glanced at each other. Neither of them was willing to suggest the possible scenario that crossed their mind.
“It’s better not to!”
“I agree.”
