In the Apocalypse, Hoarding Supplies with the System's Hundredfold Critical Hits

In reality, many older buildings had already begun to collapse when the temperature rose to forty or fifty degrees Celsius.

Without the shelter of houses, human survival in the extreme heat became very problematic. Consequently, some survivors left their homes and moved into empty office buildings and residential buildings.

However, the disaster was far from over. At least in the cities, there were rooms to live in, and people could survive. But many people in the towns and villages began to flee to nearby cities, and even the city of Malga received many refugees.

In the city, at the very least, you could have a house, because there were too many empty houses and empty high-rise buildings. The rural buildings were basically doomed under the effects of floods and other forces.

After Li Ming discovered that many survivors were in dire need of water, he directly established a dedicated well-drilling team to drill wells in various residential areas of Malga.

Of course, these wells were not drilled for free; people had to pay for them.

The personnel of Li Ming's well-drilling team were basically recruited from society, but they were protected and supervised by the military.

The people who joined the well-drilling team received two pounds of food and three liters of water per day, or they could exchange it for corresponding points tickets. In addition to these wages, Li Ming also provided two meals and drinking water a day.

Therefore, although the work of the well-drilling team was very hard, many people enthusiastically signed up to participate.

There was no way around it; the benefits were just too attractive.

Because at this time, the temperature had already reached 52 degrees Celsius!

At a temperature of 52 degrees Celsius, the ground temperature was almost sixty or seventy degrees Celsius, and many asphalt road surfaces were beginning to soften from the heat.

After Li Ming arranged these tasks, he prepared to go to Taraji Island to inspect his navy.

The fastest way to get to Taraji Island was by plane, but planes are risky, especially when riding in a helicopter.

As for transport planes, the conditions there are not yet fully suitable for transport planes to take off and land, so he could only travel by car to the port near the coast of Malga and then take a boat or helicopter to Taraji Base.

Another reason he chose to travel by land was to see what the outside world was like now.

With the retreat of the floods, the port and the Haijing Shipyard on Taraji Island had been completed, and Li Ming had already begun to manufacture naval vessels.

In addition to these naval vessels, he also carried out the latest type of modification and upgrade to many of the military vessels he had previously seized, and now these tasks were being carried out on Taraji Island.

In addition, the naval soldiers and officers had already arrived there to carry out relevant training and began to operate these armed ocean-going fishing boats for training.

For this trip, Li Ming directly dispatched a modified Paramount Marauder. This modified doomsday chariot was covered with sharp spikes.

At the same time, the bulletproof plates of this car were also fitted with the latest type of material, which was enough to withstand an RPG rocket. In addition, the interior of the car had also been modified a lot, and two anti-tank missile launchers and a remotely operated 30mm long-barreled machine gun with 300 rounds of ammunition were added to the roof. This machine gun was usually disguised and hidden and would only appear during combat.

The car's engine adopted their own research and development of the latest diesel engine, which not only saved fuel but also had more powerful power. It was a hybrid electric drive.

The car's tires were replaced with solid bulletproof tires, and the car's chassis was also modified to effectively resist the damage of anti-tank mines.

The car also had high-power, state-of-the-art air conditioning and a car refrigerator, etc. In short, this doomsday chariot looked like a miniature RV, and the riding experience was very comfortable.

It had the excellent off-road performance and all-terrain passing ability of military vehicles, as well as the comfort of civilian vehicles.

The vehicles escorting this doomsday chariot were some inconspicuous micro-van-modified vehicles. After these vehicles were modified, the armor plates could withstand 12.7mm armor-piercing bullets.

In addition, they were also replaced with self-developed diesel engines, installed bulletproof glass solid tires, and other items. In addition, in terms of weapons and equipment, these three vehicles each had a vehicle-mounted remotely operated 12.7mm DShK heavy machine gun.

Each micro-van could carry about 8 to 10 people, and the riding comfort inside was also very good.

It can be said that Li Ming's trip was absolutely secure. In addition to ground vehicles, Li Ming also dispatched drones for various reconnaissance missions.

In addition, for the absolute safety of this outing, Li Ming and the more than 30 special forces soldiers who escorted him were all equipped with HK416 rifles and various special warfare equipment. Each person also carried a second-generation jet rocket backpack for emergency escape.

It can be said that the combat capability of Li Ming's dozens of people was very strong. Simply from the perspective of individual equipment, each person had an HK416 rifle, a Glock pistol, a bulletproof vest, and a bulletproof helmet.

In addition, every 10-person squad carried a PKM machine gun and an AWM sniper rifle. There were also various spare weapons on the car, such as rocket launchers and grenade launchers. In addition, there was a high-power radio and several satellite phones, which can be said to have taken all unexpected situations into account.

..........

Just as Li Ming was preparing to travel, the situation outside was also changing.

Due to the continued high temperatures, unimaginable droughts broke out throughout the entire Tianhui Empire.

In the beginning, many places could still obtain fresh water through the deep-water wells drilled by Li Ming's well-drilling team, but later, as the high temperatures continued, the groundwater level dropped sharply, and the water produced by the wells became less and less.

At this time, many survivors who realized that the situation was not good began to flee their homes and tried to escape to places with rivers and freshwater lakes as much as possible.

Malga, a coastal city, naturally became the ideal refuge for countless survivors within a 500-kilometer radius. Other things may be lacking by the sea, but water is definitely not lacking.

Seawater is also water, and water means hope.

Although seawater cannot be drunk directly, in the current extremely hot environment, fresh water collected by high-temperature distillation of seawater can be drunk directly.

Moreover, seawater distillation also produces by-products such as sea salt. As long as there is a piece of plastic sheeting and some containers, enough drinking water can be collected in a day.

After having enough fresh water to meet their daily needs, the excess fresh water and sea salt can also be traded for other supplies.

Countless survivors formed a refugee army and began to head straight for the coast of Malga City along some highways.......
