Yang Xiaoxiao woke up on a cold morning.
She woke up before sunrise and sat on the rooftop of Mo Building, the headquarters of the Science Alliance, watching the fiery red sun penetrate the sky. At that moment, the sunlight overwhelmed the dark fog and shed the strongest beam of light. .
Such a beam of light reminded her of Lan Xi's shocking sword strike in training, of Lang Hua's eagerness when he rushed to the black streets of Shashi to save her, and of the still-thousands of miles away. The big guy from Langya City.
Sister Qian, Ping Ma, uncle, Xiao Heizi...
According to the medical staff who took care of her, the young man who sent her stayed by the hospital bed day and night for three days. He waited until she was out of danger before closing his eyes and falling asleep. Afterwards, the young man left in a hurry before she woke up, so Yang Xiaoxiao did not see Lang Hua after she woke up.
According to Yang Xiaoxiao's own estimation, this body still needs ten days and a half to rest, and it will probably stabilize at the mid-level third level after recovering from the injury. Improvement in strength should be a joyful thing, but the person who wanted to share it was now thousands of miles away, which made her a little annoyed.
The morning wind was refreshing and slightly chilly. When spring returned to the northern land and the earth was covered with greenery, Jincheng, located in the Tianfu of the Yangtze River, unexpectedly experienced a snowfall last night.
Before dawn, the ice and snow are melting. Yang Xiaoxiao sat on the edge of the chair, couldn't help but bend her legs and bury her face between her legs. Only the back of his head was left, feeling the residual heat of the sun after it penetrated the black fog.
The breeze was cool and bone-chilling, and a gust of wind blew by, causing Yang Xiaoxiao's body to slowly tremble.
With a "squeak" sound, the rooftop door behind him was opened from the outside. What walked in was a female researcher wearing a snow-white overalls and a pair of transparent protective goggles.
The cold wind blew in after opening the door, causing the hair on the female researcher's forehead to rise with the wind, revealing a beautiful and gentle face. After feeling the coolness in the wind, her eyes found Yang Xiaoxiao curled up in the chair.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you here? Is your fever gone?" There was no trace of blame in the woman's question, but more of concern.
"Sister Yun..."
Yang Xiaoxiao answered dully, rubbed her face hard on her pants, then straightened up and said cautiously: "The fever has gone away a long time ago, I just have nothing to do..."
Speaking of which, it had been a week since she came to Kemeng. In the two days after waking up, Yang Xiaoxiao stayed in the ward of Kemeng all day long. It was true to say that she was bored.
The full name of the Science Alliance is "International Scientific Research Alliance". Its predecessor is the international organization "Blue Star Intelligence Alliance". It was once the world's largest high-IQ club. It was formed by the merger of 49 high-IQ clubs in the world. It is headquartered in an unknown Pacific small town. island.
After the era of federal autonomy, the federal sovereign took the lead in merging the Science and Technology Union into government agencies. The Science and Technology Union built the "Mo Building" in Tianfu Jincheng, established a new headquarters, and received government subsidies for in-depth research in multiple fields. Branches have been set up in other continents, with local authoritative scholars and senior members of the Science Alliance participating in science and technology innovation.
The Yunyan in front of me is one of the researchers affiliated with Kemeng.
Yunyan does not look to be in her thirties as she said. She also has a husband codenamed "Qian Ke" and is one of the only remaining senior researchers in China after the disaster. After the establishment of the Self-Government Committee, the couple came from the north to settle in Jincheng at the invitation of the Secretary-General Chu Feng and served as the interim president and deputy president.
Yang Xiaoxiao only met the two academicians three days after waking up from a coma. It is said that they were working on an extremely difficult scientific research project, so they had no chance to visit him for several days. As for Yang Xiaoxiao's surgery, Academician Yun Yan took time out of his busy schedule to do it.
From this aspect, Academician Yunyan can be regarded as her benefactor.
Yunyan is just the code name of the academicians in the Science Alliance. Few people in Jincheng know their real names, but perhaps it is because Yunyan exudes a motherly temperament similar to Li Liping, or maybe Yang Xiaoxiao can look at Yunyan's face in a trance. I saw some shadows of Lang Hua. In short, only when facing her, Yang Xiaoxiao would show a bright smile that only young people can have.
Just like he is now, with his head held high and smiling stupidly, his lips are red and his teeth are white, his skin is as good as snow, and there seems to be a shining light in his eyes.
"You have nothing to do? Then come and help me do research. The batch of information that City Lord Yang sent you previously covered a wide range of contents. My husband and I have sorted it out for a long time. But because there are other things here, I will just leave it here. It’s aside.”
By the way, when registering Langya City, Yang Bensheng was listed as the city lord, and all external affairs must still be done in his name.
When it comes to research, Yunyan looks like a little girl. She makes decisions for Yang Xiaoxiao by herself:
"By the way, you are also from Langya City. You must have seen objects such as Star Grass and Black Mist Vortex with your own eyes. If you come to help, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."
Yang Xiaoxiao was a little panicked when the other party was so enthusiastic. She just wrung her hands together and said in a soft voice: "I'm young and I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well."
"Oh no, no way. Xiaoxiao is so smart. Besides, there are us..." As he said this, Yun Yan suddenly remembered something. She chuckled, and then apologized to Yang Xiaoxiao: "I forgot, you still have to recuperate. Let's just come to me when Xiaoxiao recovers and feels bored again~"
Yang Xiaoxiao's body froze for a moment when Yun Yan suddenly opened her arms to hug her.
Yun Yan leaned her head in his arms and said slowly: "If you feel homesick, you can come to see my sister..."
"Also...it doesn't look good if a girl cries too much."
"Um."
Yang Xiaoxiao agreed in a low voice. She gradually relaxed her body in the warm yellow morning light, lay on her back in the other person's arms and slowly closed her eyes.
…
The night before Yun Yan embraced Yang Xiaoxiao, Lang Hua had already set off for Qingshi, three hundred kilometers away, alone.
Before Lang Hua left, Fengwei Mountain hunter training was in the ascendant. The city lord's palace suddenly announced that it would conduct a wilderness survival training against the backdrop of a disaster for all citizens. Anyone with abilities or ordinary evolvers could sign up to participate, and the prizes would be generous.
According to the plan, they will participate in a week-long preliminary training, after which these people will be released at the southern end of the Huaibei jungle. The base management committee will then require them to use all means to return to the Langya City base in Fengwei Mountain within two weeks. It is reported that participation in this special training is voluntary, and participants can travel alone through the Huaibei jungle, or they can form teams with each other.
There is no doubt that this training will simulate how future Langya City combatants will complete missions under extreme conditions. In addition to the time limit, they will also face the threats of hunger and black beasts. Each person can only carry half a compressed biscuit, a bottle of water, a bottle of charging potion and a flare gun for emergency use.
Chen Hui, Wu Ke and others secretly inspected the competition as judges. During the competition, they were completely allowed to develop, but killing and robbing each other was absolutely prohibited.
One day after the announcement was made, there were only over a hundred people signing up, and more than half of them were capable people.
But Lang Hua is not optimistic about the number of people who will survive in the end.
After all, the dangers in the jungle in the apocalypse will be beyond everyone's imagination. Even after professional training, no one dares to guarantee that they will come back alive.
And if it hadn't been for the hellish training camp the previous week, about 30% to 40% more of them would have died in this wilderness jungle.
Logically speaking, everyone is dead, and no matter how outstanding the talent is, it is of no use.
But Lang Hua hopes to use this method to keep those talented seed players in the shortest possible time and focus on training them in order to improve the strength of the human race in Langya City.
This competition is extremely risky, but Wolf Cliff City has been planning it for a long time. In this competition, all contestants will learn how to survive in the apocalypse by facing life and death.
After all, if you want to survive in a post-catastrophic world, everyone needs to learn to be a prey first, and then you can become a qualified hunter.
As for how to be a qualified apocalyptic lamb, this will be the first lesson Lang Hua gives them in this life and death test.
Whether you run or kill, survival must be the first prerequisite...
After Lang Hua set off, Duan Hei also took Yang Xiaoxiao's place and led a group of young people to Nanqi City to participate in the Lanying training camp and learn tactical groups, military theory and special operations under the guidance of General Yang and other instructors. Knowledge.
Just like Lang Hua in his previous life.
