Doomsday disaster: Start by building a shelter

After a few minutes.

The reconnaissance drone entered the range of the mountainous area.

At this time, the mountainous areas no longer had the once lush forests. There was a dark wasteland everywhere. Only occasionally one or two trees that were burnt to charcoal still stood stubbornly.

From time to time, there are wisps of gray and black smoke rising from various places.

It was a mountain fire that had not been completely extinguished and was dormant among the ashes.

A strong air current swept over.

The reconnaissance drone in mid-air was stirred up and down.

The shelter's artificial intelligence sensed the danger and immediately began to take over control of the drone. Let it descend in an emergency to avoid turbulence from the sky.

Ten seconds later, the reconnaissance drone regained its balance.

At this time, it was only a dozen meters above the ground.

At this height, everything on the ground becomes clearer.

"There seems to be a shelter here?"

Su Wu, who had been observing in front of the console screen, his eyes moved. Noticed something unusual in the picture.

The idea of ​​inquiry arose in him.

Immediately control the drone and fly towards there.

A few hundred meters passed by in a flash.

soon.

A shelter with its door curled up by the fire appeared on the screen.

Su Wu carefully observed the half rate and found that there was a crack about ten centimeters wide at the edge of the door crack. Just enough to allow reconnaissance drones in.

"Go in and have a look."

Without hesitation, Su Wu made a decision on the spot.

If he were there in person, he might not be so impulsive and take risks. But now, the person responsible for the exploration is a drone, so there is nothing to say, just be reckless.

Switch the reconnaissance drone to autopilot mode.

Artificial intelligence steers the drone through that narrow entrance.

A charred corpse suddenly appeared in the camera lens, and then quickly zoomed in.

Su Wu's breath caught in his throat and he was almost frightened. But soon, as the drone automatically raised its height in the shelter, the tension gradually relaxed.

He noticed that it was just an ordinary victim's body. It's just that it's very close to the crack in the gate.

Without lingering on the victims, Su Wu turned on the searchlight on the reconnaissance drone and began to observe the environment inside the shelter.

The shelter looks like it was converted from an ordinary cave.

Passing through an irregular passage several meters long at the entrance, there is a spacious cave of about two hundred square meters inside. Inside the cave, there are dark objects that have been burned into remains everywhere. There are only a few large pieces of furniture that barely retain their original metal frames.

"This fire is quite powerful."

Su Wu raised his eyebrows, and he could even imagine the scene where the mountain fire spread like a purgatory.

Obviously, a metal gate and a mountain wall several meters thick could not prevent the owner of this place from disaster.

He stayed in the cave for a while.

Nothing of value was found. Su Wu was not disappointed either, commanding the reconnaissance drone to leave the shelter and continue wandering in the mountains.

Next, a whole day.

Except for returning a few times to charge in between.

Reconnaissance drones are flying through the mountains. The mountainous area within thirty kilometers from Su Wu's refuge was searched inch by inch.

The results cannot be said to be substantial, but they are not small either.

He also discovered two unoccupied shelters and four normal shelters that were suspected to still be inhabited.

There is also a cave where a large amount of steel is accumulated.

"The proportion of survivors is much higher than imagined."

"I still underestimate human beings' ability to survive."

"The other cave where the steel is stored——"

"I don't know if its owner is still there."

Silently, he marked the four normal shelters and the cave where steel materials were stored on the map.

Su Wu felt a little anxious in his heart.

But soon, he shook his head again.

Now that he is not short of steel for the time being, there is no need to do some stealing. You can take your time to determine the ownership of that batch of steel. At that time, whether it is a transaction or a direct withdrawal, you will feel more at ease.

July 1st.

The gloom of the past few days has shown signs of dissipating.

At noon, the sun occasionally hits the ground directly.

But that doesn't mean the environment is getting better. On the contrary, it is sliding towards purgatory with a frightening trend.

This afternoon, two twenty-seven.

The temperature in Jianghe City has officially reached seventy degrees.

Workers who are still stranded outside are barely able to work normally, even if they are wearing special cooling equipment. You can only evacuate to the shelter in an emergency.

On the earth, there was almost deathly silence.

Two hours later.

A storm swept across the sky and covered the sun.

Powerful winds passed through the city, destroying street lights, signboards, and even some houses and warehouses that were not strong enough.

Endless amounts of sand and gravel fell in the storm, splashing to every corner of the earth like heavy rain.

Farmhouse.

The second floor of the underground shelter.

Su Wu, who received the artificial intelligence alert, hurried to the control center. Sitting in front of the console with a somewhat solemn expression, he observed this sudden and terrifying storm through the camera set up outside.

Under the raging wind.

The mountains in the distance have been hidden in the turbid yellow sand.

On the nearby gravel beach, many fist-sized stones gradually began to break free from the shackles of the soil and rolled on the ground. Occasionally, stones flew high in the strong air current and hit the wall of the farmhouse like bullets. Leave light marks on it.

Snap!

A crisp sound appeared.

A camera located on the upper floor of a farmhouse was hit by rocks falling from the sky. Under the huge kinetic energy impact, the camera mirror broke on the spot and could no longer work normally. Only the surviving audio module is left, still transmitting wind sounds from the outside world to the console of the shelter.

"The wind is approaching level 11."

Su Wu's gaze turned to another intact monitoring screen.

The worries in my heart increased.

After thinking for a while, he closed the passage and door to the outside of the shelter. Ask the engineering team that is excavating the fourth underground floor of the shelter to temporarily stop transporting soil outwards.

With a small body like a toy like a mini transport truck, if you go out at this time, it might just overturn.

No matter how bad your luck is, you might get swept up into the sky.

It's better to stay in the shelter and wait for the storm to pass.

As for the steel and cement piled in the yard, used household appliances, vans parked in simple carports, and various materials temporarily stored in two-story residential buildings. I can only leave it to fate.

The storm came so fast that there was no time to move and reinforce them.

"I hope I can survive this."

Su Wu whispered to himself.
