The group of people quickly returned to the cave. Although they were talking and cursing, there was no one who did not feel fear towards this terrifying giant beast.
Gradually, the voices became softer and softer, and the cave became quieter and quieter. No one spoke or cursed anymore, and everyone subconsciously held their breath. The shaking sound of the giant beast walking became louder and louder, as if it was walking towards them. In the end, it was like a rolling thunder, shaking the dust and mud above their heads.
The oil lamp burned quietly. The impure oil filled the cave with the smell of burnt oil.
"It won't collapse, right?" An evolved human suddenly asked, breaking the quiet atmosphere.
"Shut up!" Lin Zhong-an suppressed his voice and angrily rebuked. His heart was also perturbed. This place was more than 500 meters away from the surface. Logically speaking, even if there was a weight of tens of thousands of tons, it should be able to bear the weight. However, in the past few decades, this cave had been dug out and expanded more than ten times, covering an area of tens of thousands of square meters. No one dared to guarantee that it would not collapse due to the shaking.
The frozen Earth was a natural cold storage, storing an astonishing amount of food resources. Once the food reserves in the cave were exhausted, they only needed to dig for a few hours to harvest a large amount of edible roots and tubers. Sometimes, if they were lucky, they could even dig up frozen mutated beasts and various underground insects. Of course, the latter was more common. As for the former, there were only a handful of them in the past few decades.
"I... I was just saying!" Feeling that everyone was glaring at him, the evolved human knew that he had angered everyone. He muttered in embarrassment and immediately shut his mouth.
Fortunately, the jinx was not his evolved ability. Soon, the shaking gradually weakened, and it was obvious that the giant beast had gone far away.
The group of people heaved a sigh of relief and could not wait to crawl into their warm blankets.
"Say, such a huge beast, how many tons of food does it eat every day? How is it still alive and kicking after 40 to 50 years?" An evolved human asked curiously.
"Do you think that every place on Earth is frozen? There is a small forest near the crater of that volcano. There are so many mutated beasts there. Who would dare to go there? "Another evolved human said in disdain.
Everyone knew about this, and there were even people who suggested moving there. However, after much discussion, the matter was ultimately left unsettled.
First of all, the volcano was three to four hundred kilometers away from here. It would take more than a day to travel with their entire family. In such a cold environment, they lacked any equipment to protect themselves from the cold. If they only wrapped themselves in animal skins that were leaking wind, they would probably be frozen into a statue halfway through the journey.
Secondly, that kind of place was like an oasis in the desert. It didn't take a brain to know that there were all kinds of powerful mutated beasts gathered there. Who would dare to risk a peaceful life and migrate there?
Although life here was a little difficult, the only thing that was lacking was meat. It was still easy to fill one's stomach. For example, there was no lack of grass roots and tubers.
The cruel reality and the despair of not being able to see the future caused everyone here to be in a state of eating and waiting to die. Living was just living. As for the future, it was a taboo topic that no one was willing to think about.
As if to vent the pressure from before, a man and a woman began to perform an indescribable scene. Their unbridled shouts spread throughout the cave. Attracted by the sound, new people quickly joined in.
The cave suddenly became a scene of obscenity!
...
At this moment, an extremely horrifying aura suddenly shrouded the place. Everyone's scalp went numb and their hair stood on end.
This was an indescribable feeling of horror. It was as if their hearts were being tightly gripped by someone and death was imminent.
Inside the cave, the rising and falling shouts instantly disappeared. The place once again became extremely quiet. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone's face was frozen with fear. Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Only Ling Zhong-an was slightly better. However, his body was also weak and he could not muster up any strength. Fortunately, this aura only lasted for a few seconds. Just like how it appeared abruptly, it disappeared abruptly. However, to him, it was as if a day passed like a year.
Ling Zhong-an rolled down from the woman's body. His eyes blankly looked at the frozen mud above his head. His whole body was panting as if he had collapsed. The lingering feeling of palpitation made his heart beat violently.
This was the second time he felt that death was approaching. However, compared to the time when the aliens destroyed the human race, the sense of danger this time was undoubtedly much stronger.
"Something must have happened!" His heart was filled with panic and fear.
In fact, it was not only here. This aura had simultaneously shrouded the entire Earth.
The ape-like giant beast that had just passed by was striding forward. Its mountain-like body made the ice layer explode wherever it passed. Suddenly, its whole body became weak and fell to the ground. It was so scared that it trembled and did not dare to move.
A giant bird that was overflowing with light was circling at the intersection of the ocean currents, looking for a prey. Its sharp and fierce eyes carried an arrogant aura. Countless birds in the vicinity cried out in fear and flew away. Suddenly, its whole body stiffened. With a wail, its huge body fell straight from the sky and fell into the sea.
A giant tree that was like a giant pillar that supported the sky. Its leaves were even deep into the dark clouds. Compared to it, the surrounding mountains were not even one-fifth of its height. At this moment, lightning as thick as snakes and dragons poured down on its leaves like torrential rain. However, its whole body was unscathed. Suddenly, the body of the tree trembled, causing a violent earthquake in the area.
...
At this moment, all the remaining creatures on Earth froze and trembled.
In a flash, the entire Earth began to surge. Wisps of will swept across the Earth at the speed of light. At the same time, countless dust particles in the atmosphere that were difficult to see with the naked eye were also being pulled by an invisible force and began to gather towards the South Pole.
The thick dark clouds in the sky rolled forward like a tide. Looking down from space, the entire Earth seemed to be gradually peeled off a thick layer of darkness.
This was an extremely shocking scene, like a miracle was happening on Earth.
The dark clouds rolled quickly like snowballs, setting off endless gales. The color became darker and darker. The dark clouds became thicker and thicker, like an ocean of ink.
Soon, a huge whirlpool was formed in the South Pole, accompanied by intense lightning and thunder.
The huge lightning, like a dancing golden snake, repeatedly hit the ice surface, blasting out charred black pits. The entire South Pole seemed to have turned into a terrible thunder field.
Fortunately, the dark clouds rapidly shrank at an astonishing speed. More than ten seconds later, they had condensed into a huge solid sphere with a diameter of more than ten kilometers and a mass equivalent to ten Mount Everest.
However, it was still shrinking, and at the same time, it began to shoot up like a rocket.
It passed through the atmosphere and flew into space. During its flight, its material structure constantly changed. The atomic nucleus underwent fission and all the atoms were converted into carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. They were then forcefully merged and collapsed, releasing a huge amount of energy. It was as if a second sun had appeared in the sky.
The person who caused all of this was none other than Luo Yuan.
At this moment, he was standing in space, hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from Earth. Luo Yuan planned to use the matter condensed from the dust to create a positive and negative Klein channel to the miniaturized universe. To communicate with the miniaturized universe, it was considered as recycling waste to a certain extent.
He looked at the Earth and frowned. The environment on Earth was worse than he had imagined. If he wanted to restore it to its previous state, he would have to put in a lot of effort.
The warm rays of the sun once again penetrated the atmosphere and shone directly on the Earth. It was still August, midsummer in the northern hemisphere. The rays were dazzling and strong. Within ten minutes, the temperature that was originally 30 degrees below zero began to rise.
The surface of the ice gradually melted. The strong evaporation caused the entire Earth, especially in the northern hemisphere, to be covered in dense water vapor. Looking down from space, a large number of white clouds appeared from nowhere and were rapidly condensing. The cumulonimbus clouds that covered the entire Earth were forming rapidly.
If they did not deal with it, in the next few months or even years, the entire Earth would be shrouded in a continuous rainstorm. Floods would ravage the land, turning the land into a swamp, and the remaining creatures on Earth would once again welcome a mass extinction.
Times had changed. During the apocalypse, mutated beasts were the most terrifying enemies of mankind. However, the situation had changed. Under the effect of the antidote virus, the diversity and variability of the creatures on Earth had become the most precious genetic wealth of mankind.
After thinking for a hundredth of a second, Luo Yuan had a perfect solution.
The next moment, his figure appeared above the Pacific Ocean. It was an endless layer of greyish-black ice. Within ten minutes of the sunlight shining on it, countless small puddles had appeared.
Soon, his Will was divided into hundreds of millions, covering all the oceans except the Arctic Ocean. His Will penetrated into every molecule of the ice layer and vibrated at a frequency of hundreds of millions of times per second. The acceleration of the molecular vibration caused the temperature of the ice layer to rise rapidly.
The ice layer had no resistance against the heat from the bottom of the matter. The layer of ice that was hundreds or even thousands of meters thick was instantly turned into liquid seawater.
The ocean reappeared and the sea level quickly fell, causing a terrifying tide. Looking at the turbulent ocean, Luo Yuan frowned. He stretched out his hand and pressed it gently. A terrifying force was instantly released and the ocean was forcibly calmed down.
His figure disappeared again.
Next, according to the location in his memory, he opened up various rivers on each continent and sorted out countless branches and veins according to the ups and downs of the terrain. He sank the depressions into lakes and flattened the mountains that were blocking the way. His power went deep into the ground, widening and connecting various underground rivers and lakes.
Yu the Great's flood control was child's play in front of him.
His Will even penetrated into the weak parts of the tectonic plates of each continent. He used various methods to alleviate them. At the same time, the cracks in the crust that were destroyed by the antimatter were repaired and strengthened by him, preventing the volcano from erupting again.
From Asia to Europe, to North America, South America … Except for the South Pole, which remained the same, all the continents were sorted out by him.
In just ten minutes, the entire Earth had undergone drastic changes.
At this time, the first rainstorm on Earth in decades, a rainstorm that covered half of the Earth, began to pour!
