One time was to deliver an exam to Zhang Bowen, and the other time was to borrow an energy stone battery.

But these people in the Academy of Sciences are still eagerly waiting for his return, waiting for him to once again bring scientific research results comparable to those of the Sky Pillar.

The other side.

Huang Xiaojuan, Sun Quan, Zhang Min, Zhang Da, Zhang Bowen, Ge Jian'an, Wan Jingnian, Wang Qian...

Chen Kai, Chen Yi, Chen Yun...

The friends and subordinates I made after arriving in the wasteland were also absent. They also gathered together with expectant and worried eyes.

When the eyes of these people collided, Su Mo paused and nodded slightly.

"Let's go, everything that needs to be arranged has been arranged, and everything that needs to be said goodbye has been said in advance."

"This trip to sea will take a long time. We have many tasks to do. It's best to start early!"

"yes!"

As Sumo's deputy and second commander of the fleet, Lu Yongyi nodded immediately, turned and left.

Half an hour later, the entire stagnant fleet began to move slowly.

Amidst deafening cheers, the first ship successfully sailed from Tianyuan Port into the Changlong Xianjiang River.

The "Xianxianjiang" operation that shocked the entire wasteland was officially announced to have begun!

At the same time, the wasteland that seemed to have suddenly calmed down started a new dispute again.

In countless unknown corners, waves of undercurrents capable of swallowing up everything finally began to surge quietly.

The first day of October in the eighth year of the last calendar year.

The three super territories of Dragon Flag Territory, Golden Eagle, and Northland finally jointly issued a treaty to terminate the non-attack agreement.

The direct factor that prompted this change was mainly because humans underestimated the power of the Crimson Storm series of disasters.

Starting from September 24, when the "sweltering heat" of fifty degrees finally arrived, unstoppable riots began throughout the New World.

Those unquenchable wildfires began to grow out of control, gradually engulfing living areas far away from large water sources.

Those wells that are drying up day by day are also a constant reminder to humans that they must make a decision as soon as possible.

Considering that there will be a serious drop in air humidity later.

When everyone is short of water, facing this harsh situation, there is naturally only one option left.

migration.

Migrate like animals!

More and more ordinary people began to leave their territories with necessary items and head to places near water sources.

More and more territories began to have fierce friction with each other, so that old territories disappeared and new territories appeared every day.

Under such circumstances, the non-attack treaty has actually become a dead letter.

In the face of survival, no one would choose to abide by it. The three major territories also happened to be launched by the donkey under the slope, in order to minimize human casualties and prepare for future integration.

However, no one expected that it was this seemingly "following the trend" behavior.

In just one week, the disputes in the entire New World were completely pushed to the other extreme.

...

Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by.

The red storm that represents "death" advances day by day, and the number of human survivors is reaching new lows every day.

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed in the New World.

From September to December, with the end of the series of disasters, the wasteland has officially entered the coldest winter from the hottest autumn in history.

The southern bank of the New World, the third to last section of the Changlong Xianjiang River Basin, and the Fu'an United Territory.

Along the spacious and magnificent Longlin River, tens of thousands of refugees have formed a scattered refugee camp here.

They migrated and fled all the way.

Because of the arrival of the cold winter, we finally settled down here and rested temporarily, waiting for the judgment of the next disaster and the arrival of spring.

In the camp, you can see colorful simple tents and mud houses covered with bricks and stones.

On the tent side, there was no trace of plant growth in the cracked earth, and there were constant coughs everywhere.

On both sides of the twisted camp path, you can see black coffins placed everywhere, and green scavenging birds flying over them.

They just lay on the coffin, not afraid of the humans dragging their bodies along these paths and forcing them to rush for their livelihood.

After all, the sour and poisonous meat quality naturally determines that they can never become food.

On the earthen house side, you can vaguely see light yellow weeds growing among the stone bricks on the ground, and there are traces of black charcoal scribbles everywhere on the walls.

Compared with the opposite side, the path here is obviously much cleaner and neater, and there are almost no coffins placed on the roadside.

At the same time, although the pedestrians here are also in a hurry, from their clothes and mental outlook, you can vaguely find that this place and the opposite world are simply two different worlds.

Looking towards the middle, there is indeed a wall about eight meters high between the two, perfectly dividing it.

One side represents waiting for rebirth, and the other side represents waiting for death.

Wow!

Suddenly, at a place in the tent camp, several scavenging birds were frightened and flew away.

More than a dozen half-year-old children wearing shabby rattan clothes and rattan pants emerged from a path.

Compared with the strong children in Tianyuan territory, most of these children's bodies are pitiful and thin.

Whether it is their skinny arms and thighs, their yellowish and white complexions, or their chapped lip skin, they all make them look like they are in their teens when they are fifteen or sixteen years old.

Only the figure in the leather jacket looked slightly stronger, with scars all over his exposed skin.

"Hey, brother Xun took people to the river to wait for the boat again today?"

Groups of children ran through several alleys, and most of the adults, who were sick and coughing, greeted them cordially.

Being teased by these people, the leather-clad boy didn't care and just patted his head innocently.

"Yes, I heard that the Tianyuan Fleet will pass through our basin soon. If we can exchange some medicines with them then, we will have hope of surviving this winter!"

"Medicine?" One of the blond, blue-eyed Westerners with a severe cough covered his mouth: "Brother Xun, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait..."

"Why can't you wait? Uncle Arthur, don't worry, I will definitely deliver the medicine to you as soon as I have it."

Stepping forward to comfort Arthur, Zhou Xun couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling when he saw the large amount of blood in his hand.

The sequelae brought to mankind by the Crimson Storm series of disasters are obviously no less than those of other series of disasters.

In the process of running, fleeing, and fleeing for a long time, most people were infected with serious plagues and suffered from horrific fevers due to the high temperature.

With this kind of fever, those humans who die directly from internal organ failure are better off, as they don't have to suffer the pain of declining and waiting for death.

But these living people have to face constant disappointments in expectation and pain every day.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm going to give it up. When...I have the medicine...I'll give it to you first..."

"Besides, the Tianyuan fleet passes through different places, so it may not necessarily come to our tributary."

With a sad laugh, Arthur took out a candy that was broken into four halves from his pocket. He carefully took out a small half of it and handed it to Zhou Xun: "Take it and eat it. This is what Uncle Arthur got from...them yesterday."

Earned”.

"..." Zhou Xun took the candy blankly and put it in his mouth while the other person's eyes were on him. Zhou Xun's heart became even more numb.

Looking at Arthur's desolate figure as he left, self-doubt began to arise in his heart.

According to time, the Tianyuan fleet should indeed have arrived at their place long ago, but the reality is...

Every day, they can only wait beside the simple pier that has been repaired on the shore.

I can't see tomorrow, let alone the future.

"Brother Xun, should we go to the dock to wait for the boat today, go to the river to dig wild vegetables, or go downstream to find prey?"

"Of course..." Hearing the child next to him asking, Zhou Xun subconsciously wanted to blurt out and go out to wait for the boat.

But thinking about what Arthur just said, he hesitated again.

"Forget it, let's go dig... today."

Suddenly, before he finished his sentence, there was a slight vibration from the whole ground.

The vibration was so slight at first that most people thought they were hallucinating.

But after more than ten seconds, all the scavenging birds that were entrenched in the camp suddenly flew up, almost forming a black cloud.

"what happened?"

Zhou Xun looked at the sky in confusion, trying to find the reason for the sudden startling of the birds.

But the next second, a distant high-frequency whistle sounded in my ears.

Many people in the entire refugee camp, including Zhou Xun, suddenly froze in surprise, revealing a touch of unbelievable ecstasy.
