Chapter 1 The Pain of Breathing (1)

The dark red sky is low on the horizon, and the sticky air clings to the ground, making it look rotten.

A hastily erected tomb suddenly moved, and the stone that served as a tombstone fell to one side. As the soil bulge increased, a pale hand broke open and knocked the stone down with a punch.

"Gouba system..."

The owner of that hand quickly dug up the remaining soil buried on her body with anger, grabbed the edge of the grave with both hands and jumped - turned around and jumped back into the grave, burying his face in the soft soil.

"You almost poisoned me to death..." Yu Di cursed, reaching out and digging out a gas mask stained with mud, and fastened it on his face.

She jumped out of the grave pit again and squinted her eyes.

This seems to be a world with heavy air pollution. The place she is in is like the urban-rural fringe of the world she lived in. The buildings with various signs on both sides of the road are lifeless and there is no sound of people. In the gaps between the buildings, there are plants on the land.

It fell to the ground in pieces, showing a rotten dark purple color.

"Come on." Yu Di confirmed that there was no danger around him, sat cross-legged in front of the grave, closed his eyes and began to receive the message.

Chaotic images and sounds kept pouring into her mind, which were messages sent by the last civilization in the world before it died.

This is the first apocalypse she has entered after going through a novice tutorial comparable to "Battle Royale". Judging from the information pouring into her mind, this is a small world that was fragmented after the fall of the big world. It retains the big world.

Part of the remains of civilization crashed into a new world that was in the gestation period. After the integration, the humans born in the new world found and inherited this part of civilization, and their life and technology levels were developed beyond the times.

However, the technology involving genes is contrary to the previous social rules. After decades of ethical debate, humans in this world have strictly limited genetic technology to the field of plants, shutting down all animals and even

Human genetic experiments, and a "Gene Protection Law" was established to specifically sentence and convict people who conduct private human and animal genetic research.

But the worst thing is that some people took advantage of the legal loopholes, used ill-defined microorganisms for research, and failed to dispose of them properly. As a result, they polluted the marine microbial genome, causing organisms that originally mainly produced oxygen and carbon dioxide to begin to produce sulfuric acid.

with nitrous acid.

This change is too secretive and subtle. Over the past few decades, the world's temperature has quietly risen, and abnormal weather such as acid rain has appeared frequently. Scholars are busy trying to find the cause of the atmospheric change, but no one has connected it with the seabed.

The changes in the microbial genome were linked together. It was not until the illegal experimental project was scrapped due to no results and the researcher angrily revealed the secret that the contamination of the microbial genome on the seabed was exposed.

Scholars are trying to save it by restoring the original genome of seabed microorganisms, but the world can afford to wait, but humans cannot afford to wait. As the acidity of the air continues to increase, the coalition government has to step up the construction of hundreds of underground cities, using soil to filter the air, intending to

Hide underground until conditions improve.

But the underground is not a place where humans should live. The human social order has collapsed and is gradually heading towards self-destruction. Without the desperate and persistent intervention of humans, the natural environment has completely collapsed. The underground city has become the last remaining remains of the great world civilization, forever buried in the

Under the strong acid soil.

The new world was dragged down by this small world and died before it could grow.

The time when Yu Di came here was the last week of the underground city's opening. More than a month later, the underground city's coalition government passed the "City Closure Act", and humans have never set foot above ground since then.

The grave she teleported into contained a woman with the same name as hers. The woman suffered from emphysema due to being exposed to acidic air without proper protection. On the way to the entrance of the underground city, her condition deteriorated rapidly and she vomited blood and died.

The people traveling with her couldn't find her family, so they had to bury her on the spot without taking off her mask, which was an advantage to Yu Di.

Yu Di twitched the corner of his mouth - no wonder there was a fishy smell in the mask.

The diaphragm should belong to the diaphragm, but she didn't want to take off the mask in such an air. The woman's body had temporarily disappeared because of Yu Di's arrival, and would not return to its original position until Yu Di left.

Yu Di turned back, thinking about where to start, while restoring the grave she dug up to its original state. As she dug, she pulled out a piece of weeds that looked dead.

"Um?"

Yu Di found that the weed could not be pulled away, so he looked closer and found that although the grass was rotten on the surface, the roots were still rooted in the ground, and judging from the exposed parts, they were even quite strong.

This is a heavily polluted world, and plants that can survive on the surface obviously play a very important role in changing the environment. There are no surface plants in the pictures Yu Di received, which means that after humans move into the underground city, they will not survive at all.

It never came back until society collapsed and mankind perished holding its own grave.

Although Yu Di was rough in her actions, she was delicate in her thoughts. She would never miss anything unusual. She spent a lot of effort to pull out the grass, and colorless liquid started to drip out from the broken place of the root, which touched the air.

The juice slowly becomes thicker and reflects brown-orange light under the dark red sunlight.

The sticky juice dripped on the corner of Yu Di's clothes and burned a black hole. However, the part where Yu Di rubbed his fingertips seemed to be absorbed by the skin and showed no reaction.

Yu Di raised his eyebrows, closed his fingers, and squeezed hard a few times. After the juice in the rhizome was squeezed out, the broken surface slowly turned black, like a layer of burnt shell.

it works.

Yu Di began to dig the ground around the stem, wanting to collect it and take it to the underground city. She thought it was at most as big as a green radish, but she didn't expect it to grow like a huge Japanese melon. Yu Di

The broken part is less than one third of the main body.

As soon as she carried this thing in her arms, she heard the sound of an engine approaching in the distance. It was a pickup truck with a high base. The people in the car spotted her standing next to the grave and flashed their lights several times.

Yu Di felt that she was lucky, because according to the information she received, it took about three days to walk to the nearest underground city. With this car, it only took half a day to get there.

Yu Di quickly waved his hand to signal the other party to stop.

"Sister, are you going to the dungeon?" The co-pilot is a tall man, wearing a camouflage uniform and a half-mask. A scar extends from his forehead to his temples, and a small piece of ear is missing. His exposed eyes look up and down.

Playing the flute.

"Yes." Yu Di nodded, "Can you take me with you?"

The big man turned his head and asked the driver what he meant with his eyes. Yu Di tilted his head and followed his line of sight. He saw that the driver was a short-haired man, wearing a body armor and a mask that covered his entire face.

Armed.

Yu Di could feel the little man looking at him out of the corner of his eye, looking at him calmly. The driver nodded slightly, and then the big man turned around and said, "Get in the car."

Yu Di thanked her and prepared to climb into the pickup truck with her "big Japanese melon" on her shoulders. When she opened the door, a dog-like face stood in front of her.

The big man turned back from the passenger side: "By the way, there is a dog in the back seat, don't squeeze it."

Yu Di twitched the corner of his mouth and sat down next to the German Shepherd: "It looks pretty good."

The big guy suddenly smiled as he spoke: "Yes, he is quite good."

The German shepherd also wore a custom-made filter mask. He sniffed the "Japanese melon" in Yu Di's arms and tried to pull it with his paws with some excitement.

Yu Di protected her "Japanese melon" and competed with De Mu in palm skills.

"What is that thing you are holding in your arms?" The big man asked curiously when he saw that the German Shepherd was so interested in the things in her arms.

"Eat." Yu Di pushed away the German Shepherd's nose and tilted his head.

"Is this edible?" The big man was a little surprised and looked back at the thing in her arms.

Because the ecological damage on the surface of the earth has gradually become more serious, harmful substances in things grown in the ground have always exceeded the standard. In recent years, human food has turned into synthetic nutritional cakes, and the drinks are all distilled water with additives. The big guy has not eaten for a long time.

Natural food”.

"Maybe. Can you let it stop?" Yu Di raised his hand stained with German Shepherd saliva and said angrily.

The big man smiled and ordered the German Shepherd: "Mi Bao, sit down!"

Mi Bao immediately sat upright after hearing the big man's instructions, but still glanced at Yu Di's arms.

The big man stretched out his hand to straighten Mibao's crooked mask and looked at Yu Di: "It's really delicious. It's greedy. I usually have a hard time feeding it nutritious cakes."

Yu Di curled his lips: "I'm just like this, and I plan to take it to the underground city laboratory. Don't let it cause harm to me."

The big man heard this and said seriously: "Of course, if this thing can be eaten and grown, we might not have to stay in it for so long."

After hearing the big guy say that the evacuation time announced by the coalition government is fifteen to twenty years, Yu Di thought to himself that the humans here really underestimated the persistence of this pollution. No wonder they would riot when they learned that they would not be able to get out for the rest of their lives.

, leading to the collapse of order.

"Be prepared for the long term." Yu Di sighed.

The settings are complete, the plot is complete, and the pitfalls are slowly being filled in
