When I opened my eyes, I saw the ceiling of the built-in wall lamp. I looked at the time, it was five ten in the morning. Even though I slept very late last night, my biological clock still made me wake up at this time, and I was very conscious.
, since the disaster happened, I have rarely been able to sleep for a long time naturally. But what makes me feel strange is that even if I only sleep for a few hours, I don’t feel mentally tired.
You will feel sleepy and tired.
When I woke up in the morning, there was no odor or other sensation in my mouth. It was no different than after I brushed my teeth. I felt like I no longer needed to brush my teeth. This was something I only noticed recently, but out of habit I still brushed my teeth as usual in the morning.
After teething, I will rinse my mouth no matter how rushed I am.
Lying on the sofa and thinking quietly about what happened last night, yes, I am not in my own home now, but I am spending the night in the century tower that I have longed for, and it is still three hundred floors high.
I stretched a little, but there was nothing to do when I got up so early, and Professor Gable and the others were probably still sleeping. Not many people would get up so early at this time... The smell of someone?
"You're up. It's really early. Young man, would you like a cup of coffee?"
Is it Professor Gable?!
I immediately sat up from the sofa, and sure enough I saw Professor Gable sitting in front of the CE host working. Although he was working, he was actually just sitting quietly on the chair with a cup of steaming coffee and staring at the screen.
"The coffee is ready, right over there, and the cups are in the tea cabinet."
Professor Gable pointed to the corner on the other side of the sofa and said, still staring at the screen.
Although I don't really like drinking coffee in the morning and prefer hot milk to coffee, it is still good to have some hot drinks to warm my stomach.
"Professor Gable, you got up very early too."
"I'm getting old. I can't even sleep late. I wake up before I know it. I can't fall asleep no matter how hard I sleep."
Professor Gable smiled and told the fact that he was no longer young in a very relaxed tone.
Looking at Professor Gable like this, I can't help but remind me of my grandfather. Although I know that he is also in this city, I don't know where he is now, how well he is doing, and whether he is eating well.
"Young man, this disaster happened so suddenly, you must have suffered a lot."
"Ah, yes, but at least I survived."
"Hahaha, just survive. Survive tenaciously. This sentence is very appropriate for you."
Ha... probably, I have forgotten how many times I have narrowly escaped death. Living is really not easy.
"Look here, young man, look carefully."
A quietly rotating blue planet was suddenly projected in the center of the laboratory. There was no doubt that I recognized this planet, this beautiful blue star called the Earth. However, the Earth's atmosphere at this time seemed to be shrouded in a layer of gray gas.
It is no longer as beautiful as before, as if it has formed a thick cocoon of dense fog.
"In April 2050, an unknown energy from outside the Milky Way and from the depths of the universe passed through the solar system. The earth was also affected and began to experience changes, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, or thunderstorms.
This process may be fast or slow. Some cities predicted that these disasters were coming and evacuated their people in advance. Others had no time to escape and were buried in the disaster together with the city. Even if they were not in it, they just watched the death through data.
The population size is also shocking. I have obviously observed the approach of the unknown energy in advance, but I still failed to save these people. It is my incompetence. "
"Professor Gable..."
"Don't worry, I just nagged you accidentally. I have to face this reality."
Professor Gable drew a line on the rotating earth projection and marked several places at the same time.
"Dramatic changes in climate are a very serious problem currently faced by mankind, but a solution to this problem has not been found in a short period of time. Recently, new problems have emerged. The latest news from the federal headquarters, the entire
There are only ten surviving megacities in the Earth Federation. Most of them, including Luoan Central City, have been destroyed, or have become extremely dangerous dead cities where mutant creatures and plants are rampant. Currently, for Luoan Central City
A relatively urgent problem for the city is that a very large mutant creature seems to have appeared in Oquark City, a megacity adjacent to the central city of Luo'an, and the ecological environment there has undergone very huge changes. We plan to
Send some scientific researchers in for research and exploration, escorted by a team of fifteen elite soldiers, but they need a fairly experienced explorer."
The series of information was a bit overwhelming for me, but I still grasped the key to the problem.
"Do you need me to participate in the exploration?"
"Yes, smart, this is the purpose of me talking to you about these things."
"But in terms of experience, I only know a little bit about mutant creatures and phenomena."
"It doesn't matter, I believe you. The important thing is that you won't leave anyone behind. The person who leads the way this time is someone who values life enough."
Professor Gable showed a gentle smile and said,
"Don't worry, the reward will not be small. I will entrust this task to the Explorer Alliance as a designated candidate."
"Okay, I'll take this job."
Although I don't know if I'm qualified, but since Professor Gable trusts me so much, it's natural for me to go all out. At least I have a job again.
Next, let's prepare some equipment, store food, etc., and also say hello to Barn and Zod.
