Doomsday disaster: Start by building a shelter

Didn't spend too long in the hall.

Soon, several more groups of people were sent over.

The place gradually became more and more crowded.

Shi Ming began to follow the prompts and climbed to the third floor along with the flow of people.

The third floor is the top of this mobile base.

Here it is.

Most of it is in the open air.

Many unprepared people were soaked by the pouring rain outside and shivered with cold as soon as they went up.

Shi Ming's situation is slightly better.

He had read the announcement posted by the rescue team online in advance and knew that he might face heavy rain outside during the transfer.

So I put on a raincoat early.

This allowed him to remain in pretty good physical condition and even still had the energy to look around.

The third floor, no, strictly speaking, should be counted as the rooftop.

There is a simple metal railing on the outermost perimeter.

About one-third of the area at the back is a spire building that looks like it is made of pure metal.

There are a large number of shooting holes in the building, as well as various rotating bases.

Even people who are not very familiar with the military, after seeing these looks.

You can also easily connect them with words like machine guns and bunkers.

Obviously, this building must have originally been built in response to war.

He carefully took a few steps forward.

Shi Ming approached the railing.

Outside, illuminated by light.

The floodwaters were constantly surging and rolling, hitting one wave after another.

The occasional splash.

It will even roll onto the rooftop floor more than 20 centimeters above the water.

Touch Shi Ming's shoes.

Shi Ming looked a little frightened.

If you are not careful, you may fall into this raging flood. I'm afraid that within a few minutes, everyone will be gone.

Subconsciously, he grasped the railing tightly to fix his body.

Shi Ming turned his head and continued to look outside.

At this time, he discovered that there were two buildings of the same size around him.

It was equally crowded up there.

They were all survivors who were similar to him and had been rescued.

Shi Ming counted briefly.

It was found that the number of people in all places combined may be nearly a thousand.

"A lot of people."

Shi Ming was a little surprised.

Those mechanical monsters saved far more survivors than he had imagined before.

Faintly, he seemed to understand why the other party didn't give people a chance to defend themselves during the rescue.

Their time is too precious.

It cannot afford anyone's waste.

Standing in the heavy rain, we waited for a while.

In the darkness that cannot be illuminated by distant lights, a patch of lights gradually approaches from far to near.

At first glance, it looked like it was no less than dozens of kayaks.

soon.

A kayak at the front approached the rooftop where Shi Ming was.

Two men wearing life jackets tied the kayak to the rooftop railing with ropes.

Then he shouted several times to Shi Ming and the others.

Signaling them to get on board quickly.

In the raging flood, the kayak, which was only two or three meters wide, seemed to be shaking quite badly.

It's hard to give people a sense of security.

Many people have timid thoughts and hesitate in their steps.

But there were also some who were braver and climbed over quickly.

Shi Ming is not very courageous.

But after considering the final fate of the young husband who delayed the rescue.

Still, he worked hard to overcome his fear and became the first group of people to set foot on the kayak.

And what surprised him was.

The rescuers didn't seem that unreasonable.

After seeing someone hesitant to come down.

Two lifeguards standing at the front of the kayak took the initiative to climb aboard.

He gave them a helping hand and showed extraordinary patience.

"Aren't you in a hurry this time?"

Shi Ming hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but ask the third lifeguard beside him, who was controlling the kayak engine.

"There is still some time."

"We are only a second-tier team. If we are late, you will have to wait a little longer in the rain at most."

"It won't have much impact."

Lifeguards seem to be used to this kind of problem.

He glanced at Shi Ming.

She told him everything he wanted to know without him continuing to test her.

"So that's it."

"I thought your rules were always so strict."

Shi Ming felt the lifeguard's calm attitude and exhaled in relief.

"Can I meet you? My name is Shi Ming."

"Before the end of the world, I used to be a doctor in the emergency department of a municipal hospital."

"He's actually a doctor from a big hospital."

"This is a high-level talent in our shelter. Your future income will definitely be several times more than mine."

When the lifeguard heard Shi Ming's profession, his eyes lit up and his attitude immediately became more enthusiastic.

"My name is Gong Wei, and I am a technician at the water purification plant in Jingyuan Shelter."

"technician."

"That should be a civilian job."

"Why did you come to such a dangerous place?"

Shi Ming was a little curious.

He also thought that these lifeguards were formerly professional firefighters, or at least veterans.

"There is no way, who told us to mobilize all the people this time."

"It is said that the higher-ups organized no less than 100,000 people to rescue the entire Jianghe City."

"A healthy person like me will naturally be sent out."

Gong Wei shrugged his shoulders, somewhat indifferent.

Although this kind of work is indeed quite dangerous.

But because it is randomly assigned by artificial intelligence, all the selected people have to go up regardless of their status.

There is nothing to say, just do it.

If you die, just consider it bad luck.

"So many people."

Shi Ming was shocked. It was a little hard to imagine how strong the organization was needed to launch such a large-scale rescue.

I am afraid that even the official may not be able to do such a thing well.

"After all, this disaster covers the whole city."

"If so many people are not mobilized."

"This time, I am afraid many people will die."

Speaking of this, Gong Wei also had some feelings.

It was only after he came out that he saw how dangerous the environment outside was.

The flood that swallowed everything.

It was more difficult to resist than the wildfires and high temperatures in the past.

"That's right."

Shi Ming fell silent and could not refute.

Without that level of mobilization, people like him who live in a small shelter.

I am afraid there is no chance to board the rescue boat alive.

While the two chatted.

The kayak was gradually filled with people.

The two lifeguards in the front untied the fixed ropes.

Then the kayak slowly backed up.

Turned around.

Fully loaded with 18 people, it paddled towards the darkness in the distance.

Shi Ming looked back in the heavy rain.

Even though the distance between them was getting farther and farther, the dense rain made everything hazy.

The three mobile bases standing on the water still looked brightly lit.

Like a lighthouse in the sea, it illuminated this city shrouded in a swamp.
