Chapter 281.
The temperature had been dropping since the end of the acid rain a month ago, but there had never been a moment like now, when the streaks on the thermometer kept falling at an extremely frightening rate.
There was still their half-eaten meal in front of them.
Sheng An and Qi Ling Mist had left in too much of a hurry, and their chopsticks were thrown messily on the table, and the steaming hot meal seemed to have gone cold all of a sudden.
The onset of winter meant another disaster was coming.
Jiang Yu was still holding the chopsticks, murmuring somewhat blankly, “Winter is coming this way?”
Thinking of the cold winter in her memory, she couldn’t help but shiver.
Lai Wan Yun exhaled a breath and looked grave: “31 days in advance, not sure if we have a problem with our memories, or …… Hao Jingye let the cold winter advance.”
“Let the Institute analyze this issue.”
Song Linwei stood up, calmly opened his mouth, “Jiang fish, you go into the space to stay first, the cold winter comes in advance, Sister Sheng wants to grab life with time, temporarily can’t take care of you, other people according to Sister Sheng’s arrangement, start to act.”
After saying that, he and the others also hurried out.
The people of the Special Intelligence Service can play a huge role in a disaster, the sudden onslaught of the cold wave will bring no small amount of trouble, the Special Intelligence Service must step in.
With only Jiang Yu left alone, she was a little hesitant.
Then, she saw that the soup placed on the tabletop was solidifying ……
Jiang Yu’s pupils shrank, and then she immediately disappeared into space.
–All of them were grabbing time in the cold winter that came early, she had to protect herself and also the space, absolutely no one else could die to save her.
“–Warning! Cold wave approaching! All people get indoors close to each other immediately for an early winter emergency!”
The radio informed three times.
Most people were bewildered and looked around, not yet reacting, followed by the temperature plummeting, and for a moment it was as if their blood was frozen and the coldness leapt towards the inside of their bones.
The sound of the broadcast continued.
The young girl was standing outside the points exchange point, hearing the broadcast, pausing for a moment.
Immediately afterward, a terrifying coldness suddenly came, as if the temperature of this world was artificially pulled down, and in an instant, cold hairs rose and plummeted, causing one’s brain to go blank.
However, the sound of the radio became louder and louder, and the words “winter emergency” seemed to trigger the key, and her mind instinctively recalled the emergency video that had been playing on a loop during this period of time, and gradually came back to her senses.
Right!
The base’s houses are insulated, cool in the summer and warm in the winter, so you won’t freeze to death if you enter.
The young girl gritted her teeth and rushed into the exchange point.
Immediately, being guided by the staff into the emergency room inside, there were already quite a few people inside the room, the air conditioner started to run, and several electric furnaces were working in the center, emitting heat.
The chill inside her bones was dispelled at once, and the girl sighed in comfortable relief.
“The cold-proof clothes are all here, put them on first, and if the cold-proof clothes aren’t enough, wrap them in a quilt or something else!”
“It’s warm in here, you don’t need a gore-suit, do you?”
“Put them on at the top’s notice, just listen to the order.”
Some people obeyed and went over to put on the heavy winter-proof clothing, while others didn’t move and were still watching, wanting to ask how to return to their dormitories.
The girl saw people continue to come in, hesitation for a moment, went forward to receive the winter armor wrapped in the body, preparedness.
She felt a little hot after just wrapping up the winter jacket and turning on the air conditioner and furnace.
She also wondered if she wanted to go back now.
However, everyone else who asked to go out was blocked and the staff was not allowed to go out.
The girl then sat in the corner, leaning against the wall, quietly listening to the noise of the room.
For some reason, she felt colder and colder, and the temperature of the wall was still dropping.
The girl frowned and stretched out her hand, the wall was cold and piercing, she retracted her hand violently and took a breath.
“Click-”
The sound came from far away, getting clearer and clearer.
Icing?
The girl’s face changed drastically, wrapping her clothes tightly as fear rose in her heart.
At the sound of notification, almost everyone entered the chamber.
Only Sheng An and Qi Ling Mu were still standing on the high ground, looking ahead.
They were also the only ones, who witnessed the horror of this moment of the onset of winter –
Starting from the north, the world seemed to be frozen, accompanied by the sound of “clicking”, the black scorched earth condensed into transparent ice, wrapped in white frost and swept towards them.
It was like a science fiction movie, coming towards them at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The shields had been opened, but the effect against the cold wave wasn’t as obvious as the acid rain, ice formed on the shields, the walls of the base were frozen, and everything in the base was, little by little, solidifying.
0°, -10, -20°, -30, -40° ……
It’s still dropping!
The heating system was frozen, the power supply system was frozen, the soil was frozen, the roads were frozen, this cold wave had been so terrible that it was a bit bizarre.
Communicator, voice ringing out-
Wan Wan: “All bases have been notified, 3 bases in the north have been temporarily lost, all news has been passed on to bases where the cold wave has yet to reach, all have begun preparations.”
SONG LINWEI: “The power is out, temporarily unable to centralize heating and use electric stoves, it’s in the process of being overhauled.”
Gu Qiansheng: “Some people have suffered serious frostbite, there are also quite a few accidents among the staff, the distribution of cold-proof clothing has become difficult.”
One bad situation after another was reported to the top.
The general base chief gave a new order, how to issue cold proof clothing, how to issue supplies, how to organize rescue …… all in the shortest time, with the most appropriate arrangements.
Sheng An was always calm, as if she was frozen into an ice sculpture by the cold wave.
But after listening, she calmly opened her mouth, “All ordinary people leave the front line for disaster avoidance, and the Special Intelligence Service applications are all handed over to the Alterans.”
Within the communicator, the Chief Base Chief’s breathing stuttered.
Immediately afterward, he slowly spoke, “Alterans will take over the unawakened staff after receiving cold suits and other cold-proof equipment!”
Their plan from the beginning was not to just have the xenos on missions, with the cold wave coming, injuries, evacuation, distribution of supplies, and warmth were all major events, and they all needed quite a few people.
Let ordinary people take refuge and only allow the Altered to act ……
What does this indicate?
It showed that the cold wave was far more terrifying than they had imagined!
So terrible that Sheng An wasn’t prepared to let ordinary people die in vain, and all of them chose Alterans with stronger physical qualities and resilience!
All those who heard the arrangement had a heavy mood for a moment, but soon, they shook their heads, recovered their state, and acted.
Qi Lingmu stood by the side, reaching out his hand, touching Sheng An’s finger, cold as ice, devoid of temperature.
He frowned slightly and tightened his grip on her hand.
Sheng An said, “This might just be the beginning.”
