Rebirth In The Apocalypse: Start By Building The Strongest Base

"It's raining!"

"It's raining heavily outside!"

Hearing the sound of raindrops on the roof, everyone knew it was pouring!

Was the darkness really caused by volcanic ash blocking the sky, as the boss said!?

Those who hadn't believed it before now believed it eighty percent.

After all, the boss was quite accurate.

"Alright, alright, everyone knows it's raining, which means the sun will come out soon. President Qin won't deceive you. Everyone, continue working. It's almost time to get off work."

Tang Jinming, who was present, saw many people discussing excitedly and couldn't help but speak up to control the situation.

Although he also felt a little relieved in his heart.

"Everyone, pay attention when you get off work later, try not to get caught in the rain outside. President Qin said this morning that the rain might be poisonous. If you can avoid it, do so. If you have problems after being told and get injured and go to the infirmary for treatment, points will be deducted!"

Hearing his words, many people in the factory were determined to be careful later, otherwise, wouldn't it be foolish to have points deducted for getting injured or sick from the rain?

The third-floor office of the office building.

Qin Jin was also standing by the floor-to-ceiling window at this time.

He stared at the heavy rain falling in the darkness before him, his eyes solemn.

It was the same in his previous life.

He remembered being at home and witnessing the darkness descending the day after the earthquake, followed by acid rain!

At that time, he didn't know the rain was acidic and even happily ran to the bathroom to get a basin to collect it!

Then he regretted it.

When his outstretched hand touched the rainwater, he quickly felt a tingling sensation.

Then he slowly felt a burning sensation.

By the time he realized something was wrong and pulled it back.

It was too late.

He saw large areas of redness and swelling on his hands that had been exposed to the rain, and soon they began to ulcerate.

Even after his hands recovered, they were forever scarred.

In later conversations with other survivors, he learned that everyone who had come into contact with the rainwater had been traumatized to varying degrees.

Fortunately, because of the darkness, most of the survivors did not go out, so not many were directly killed by the acid rain.

Most were just injured due to ignorance.

He stared at the rain screen outside for a while.

He picked up his walkie-talkie and once again instructed all management and defense personnel within the base to pay close attention. If any problems arose, they were to put on the prepared fully enclosed anti-corrosion raincoats and rain boots to repair them.

One of the special supplies prepared before the apocalypse would come in handy here.

When it got dark in the morning.

He had already asked people to cover the last of the flowers and plants, including some of the not-so-tall trees, with tarpaulins.

Save as much as possible, although these things only had ornamental value.

With such tight defenses, if there were still problems, then there was nothing he could do.

The rain poured down outside the window, as if the clouds could accumulate so much rainwater.

Coupled with the increasingly cold weather.

It was truly tormenting.

————————————

Thousands of kilometers away from the Green Origin Base.

Northeast region.

Black Province.

Many places here are known as the "Top Granary in the World."

The province has fertile land and a suitable climate and has always been a major grain-producing province, accounting for a significant proportion of China's grain production.

At this time.

Acid rain also descended here.

The torrential rain fell on this land, drenching all the buildings.

Bin City.

This place has the largest number and largest grain reserve warehouses in the country, divided into various flat warehouses, vertical silos, gradually rounded warehouses, building warehouses, and so on.

There are as many as tens of millions of tons of grain reserves!

However, most of these warehouses are now leaning and collapsing, most of them collapsed in the strong earthquake that occurred yesterday!

The ground cracked, buildings collapsed, and even many storage warehouses were affected by the strong earthquake, exposing the grain inside!

At this time, under the violent rain, some grains were making sizzling sounds!

That was the sound of being corroded!

These millions of tons of grain are facing the invasion of acid rain!

Before long.

The originally slightly damaged warehouse body showed even larger cracks under the internal corrosion of the acid rain.

The wheat waves inside rushed out like a sea, quickly covering the surrounding area, exposed to the still-pouring rain.

It was smoking.

It was turning black.

It was crying.

Slowly, more and more of the grain that had been affected by the earthquake and exposed by the acid rain collapsed.

In the end, countless grains were exposed to the rain.

They didn't even wait for the surviving humans to find them.

They had already been annihilated by the acid rain that appeared less than a month into the apocalypse.

It was not just Bin City, more and more cities, more and more provinces of grain, began to be invaded.

Because this rain did not only fall in the south.

But fell globally!

Each country may not be synchronized, but it never fails.

Some places have super strong acid rain, and some have weaker acid rain.

Only a few places did not have acid rain due to terrain and various other reasons.

This rain seems to have little direct harm to humans, but the actual long-term harm is terrifying beyond imagination!

Because in a very short period of time, it almost destroyed more than 80% of the world's edible food crops!

Rice, wheat, fruit trees, vegetables, melons, and various plants that were originally exposed outdoors all fell under the attack of acid rain.

Directly reducing the food available to humans outdoors to a state of extreme poverty.

Perhaps people have not realized it yet.

But in the future, whenever someone thinks of the acid rain that fell that day, they can't help but shudder.

Because the hunger caused by it will long cover the entire Blue Star for an unknown period of time!

There is also a magical phenomenon that zombies and monsters are immune to the corrosion of this acid rain!

These rains, falling on the zombies, not only do not harm them, but also seem to nourish them!

Almost all the zombies who were originally staying indoors seemed to be summoned by some inexplicable force, walked out of the buildings, stood in the rain, and roared, as if thanking them for this inexplicable gift.

If someone saw the scene of hundreds of millions of corpses worshiping, it would become a nightmare for life.

This is a gift to zombies, but a punishment to humans.

The environment on which humans depend for survival has been terribly damaged.

If every survivor in the future were to rank the degree of terror of natural disasters.

Today's acid rain will undoubtedly be topped by the vast majority of humans!

Undisputed!

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

Green Origin Base.

After finishing work this afternoon, everyone still got off work to prepare for dinner.

The base managers have comforted them many times, so they are a bit immune to the super-heavy rain that has fallen for most of the day.

Manager Wang Yang personally held iron products into the rain, allowing everyone to see the sizzling scene, so that some unbelievers could dispel strange thoughts.

The boss really didn't deceive them, this rain is too terrifying!

Fortunately, they didn't really get their hands wet, otherwise, they would definitely be the ones crying.

Just as everyone was waiting to get off work, thinking about what to eat tonight.

A ray of sunlight suddenly shone on the factory windows!

Then it was the ground outside!

Many people couldn't help but run to the windows and doors to check!

They saw that the sun, which had been away for almost a day, had almost set, but the light of the setting sun still stubbornly tore through the scattered clouds!

Shining on this land!

The acid rain stopped!

The sun is back!

(End of this chapter)

(The power of acid rain is too great, so I need to stop it quickly.

Now is the real start of the apocalyptic hard mode. If the global grain reserves and countless edible plants outdoors are not destroyed, the famine plots in countless apocalyptic novels are simply unreasonable, because that is a scale of nearly one billion tons.)
