Chapter 24: Missed

The world's water storage has not directly decreased by one-third in the past few days. Less than one-third of the water resources available on the surface are still including seawater, and the rest is deep groundwater.

Freshwater resources are less than one-tenth of their original size. Some small and medium-sized rivers and lakes have all dried up. Some cities that were already short of water have collapsed instantly. The global network is cut off. SOS signals cannot be transmitted. Roads have partially collapsed under the influence of high temperatures. The power system was also paralyzed in this high temperature and could not be repaired...

People returned to primitive society in an instant... Jiang Ying only went out occasionally in his previous life, and only knew a general situation. As for the more specific information, he was not very clear. After all, the three of them relied on those supplies for two or three years.

Thoughts only fleeting, Jiang Ying said:

"Perhaps, soon. It should just be affected by some external factors. It will be fine in the past. Don't worry about Uncle Zhang, we still have a good collection of supplies!"

Jiang Ying took some iced fruits from the ice storage on the lower floor, ordered another tomato and egg noodles, and simply mixed some cold beef and cucumbers, and had a delicious meal with Uncle Zhang. He didn't know whether it was dinner or a midnight snack. .

The two of them did not go to the supermarket to purchase goods in the next few days, and they did not know that the supermarket material purchases had stopped on the third day. The reason was that the next day, experts detected that the high temperature would last for a long time, and there were predictions of crop death. Water resources will evaporate in large quantities.

The official issued Z order overnight, prohibiting the purchase of materials and turning them over to the G family. An individual distribution system was adopted to ensure adequate distribution of materials. No citizen was abandoned. A company of transportation liaison soldiers was temporarily transferred to notify local officials and subordinate agencies. Communicate to the person in charge of the supermarket step by step.

For this reason, a group of transportation liaison soldiers directly lost nearly half of their personnel. These were a new generation of outstanding talents trained by the country. Unexpectedly, they were caught in a sudden natural disaster, leaving the leader who knew the news silent for most of the time.

The official people were so busy that their hair turned gray.

Overseas, there is even more chaos. When the high temperature comes, businesses will close their doors. People who advocate freedom will see, what can they do if they don’t have supplies? So they just took advantage of the normal temperature period to break in the door to get supplies. This phenomenon happened countless times. The merchants who were smashed were not willing to accept this tone, and there was no gun control, so they directly fought on the street.

In just a few days, the foreign country is more like the apocalypse that has been going on for several years. The streets are full of building debris, tools on shelves, corpses of people who died of high temperature, and corpses of people who were robbed and burned.

In the end, the plutocratic aristocrats are the ones who collect the most materials. The real power is still in the hands of those who have the right to speak. Therefore, ordinary people abroad are struggling to survive at the bottom of the apocalypse. The people at the top are still living in luxury every day. Natural disasters will make Technology will make up for it. If there is a high temperature, we will find ways to cool down the ice. If there is a power outage, we will build a power generation system.

The two stayed at home for a few more days. That day, Jiang Ying, who was eating hot pot with Uncle Zhang, vaguely heard someone talking on the ground, and with a touch of spiritual consciousness, he saw a few men sneaking around outside the villa wall. It seemed extremely dangerous. The heat has dropped to a normal high temperature. Although the few people outside are sweating profusely, they are still standing there, which shows that the power of the high temperature has been greatly reduced.

"I know this store. Some time before the apocalypse began, I saw several trucks transporting supplies to this store. They said that some supermarket had closed down and they wanted to take over."

"Yes, yes, I know this family. I heard that they were quite rich before, but then they only had an orphan girl."

"Hehe, wouldn't that be just right? We are short of a woman, and now we have food..."
