Life would always find its own way out and create miracles.
With the push of the World Origin Force and the nuclear radiation as an opportunity, the entire planet's ecosystem was broken and reshaped.
Wu Ming went to a few large human settlements to take a look. He found that while the survivors were no different from before, a strange change was gradually forming in their bodies, allowing them to resist the harsh environment of the planet.
"New humans?"
He looked at the collected data and was speechless. "It's estimated that after the transformation, the new humans will have four times the strength of the past, five times the speed, and the probability of awakening special abilities is very high …"
"Who would've thought that this world would complete a path change in such a way …"
The energy activity in this world was very high, and it was very suitable for the existence and combat of Mutants.
On the other hand, normal people would definitely not be able to adapt here.
"In the end, I still chose the path of the extraordinary … How will this place develop in the future? A wasteland Mutant World? Or a combination of Mutants and technology, or a return to the primitive slave society? Will Extraordinaires become nobles? "
Many questions appeared in Wu Ming's mind.
He had to say that the changes in this world allowed him to see more of the world's deeper mysteries, and he had a deeper understanding of the information left behind by that powerful being.
"While the process isn't over yet, the most crucial part is already very clear …"
Wu Ming's eyes flashed, and his figure suddenly disappeared.
…
* Bang! *
In front of him, a huge mechanical sound came from inside a half-destroyed building, and soon after, the wall caved in, revealing a tunnel.
A few black shadows walked out from within, looking very cautious.
They were wearing thick clothes that covered their bodies tightly, and they wore something that looked like sunglasses on their faces.
Wu Ming knew very well that these people were civilians in the underground shelter. Now that they could not bear it anymore, they came out to investigate.
"Is this still our Doer City?"
One of the explorers obviously could not take the blow, and looked like he was in tears. "How did our planet become like this? How can I explain this to my wife and daughter? "
"This damn war!"
All the explorers gritted their teeth, and soon after, a woman came over and patted his shoulder to comfort him.
"Cheer up, Scherff. You're the only environmentalist in our team. There are tens of thousands of people underground waiting for our news!"
"I know! I know … "
The explorer named Scherffer finally recovered from the shock. He took out all kinds of equipment and began to check. "Sh * t!"
As soon as he opened it and glanced at it, he immediately cursed, "The radiation level is off the charts! The amount of oxygen and nitrogen in the air has decreased, but the amount of nitrogen oxide has increased … I'm afraid the atmosphere that protects us is already riddled with holes. We are constantly exposed to ultra-high concentrations of ultraviolet rays … "
"The first few waves have already said it …"
The woman curled her lips in dissatisfaction.
"But more importantly …"
Suddenly Schaeffer took off his hat and coat and even his glasses.
"What are you doing?"
"Is he crazy?"
The others were all shocked, but Schaefer acted as if nothing had happened. "Compared to the changes in the environment, we ourselves have changed more. Maybe we can just call ourselves' radiationers' …"
Schalf smiled bitterly. "Haven't the doctors in our sanctuary noticed it a long time ago? In just a few short months, we've undergone changes that would only happen to ordinary creatures in hundreds of millions of years!"
"Indeed, although the sunlight is still a little dazzling, I don't feel particularly uncomfortable!"
The woman hesitated for a moment, then immediately took off her armor, revealing a head of blonde curls and a fair and beautiful face.
"What's going on? We've adapted to this ecological environment? "
The others were the same, looking around curiously.
"Yes … This planet has already undergone some unknown changes!"
Schaeffer muttered, looking at the withered and charred plants by the roadside.
He took out a machete and cut the surface, instantly seeing the little fresh veins and water inside.
"Plants too, although many of them look dead, they still retain a certain amount of vitality. Maybe it will only take a rain for new mutated plants to grow …"
"Even so, is this planet still the home we're familiar with?"
The woman murmured in a voice that sounded like she was chanting.
"Look around, the original city has already become ruins. The difficulty of rebuilding will definitely be hellish. The most important thing is, we don't have enough manpower …"
Schaeffer sighed deeply. "Even I can't predict what will happen in the future. In short, the decline of civilization is almost a foregone conclusion!"
The woman looked around.
She saw that the original commercial walkways, high-rise buildings, and other buildings had already become ruins.
"Is the whole world like this? No! I don't believe it! "
She seemed to be giving herself confidence. "Perhaps there is a paradise in other parts of the world where we can continue to thrive …"
The woman could not help but feel despair at the thought of living in such ruins.
"Where is there a paradise in this world?"
Schaeffer curled his lips in disdain. "Even if there is, it's just something those frauds from the Church of Redemption made up. Before the apocalypse, I even heard a joke from Caspar City … Pope Steven actually said that he could guide the physical bodies of believers to the kingdom of God, causing many devout believers to run to Caspar City. But now, that place has become a pile of ashes!"
"But we can go to the shelters in other cities to take a look. There must be many people there!"
The few of them walked on the empty street, stepping on many broken walls. They looked like a few ants.
"Wow!"
At this moment, the woman suddenly exclaimed, "Mary Tulip Counter? My god, I've been eyeing this series for a long time. Unfortunately, a bottle of this perfume is enough to cost me a few years of my salary! "
On the side of the road, in a half-destroyed shop, the glass cabinet was covered with a layer of dust, as if it had been there for decades. However, the logo of the luxury goods was still faintly visible.
Bang!
Facing the woman's infatuation, Schaeffer did not hesitate to step forward and smash the glass with a hammer. "You like this brand of perfume? Just take it! "
The woman opened her mouth wide, unable to react for a moment.
Schaeffer's voice was filled with melancholy. "Now, in this city, perhaps we're the only ones who are still alive. Everything here is ours. Take whatever you want, even food is not a problem!"
Even though most of the warehouses were destroyed, Dole City was still a big city. Even if they picked up the scraps, it would be enough to feed the shelter for a long time.
Bang! Bang!
Glass was smashed one after another. Many gold and silver jewelry, jade jewelry, fox fur coats … These things that were once unattainable were now within reach.
"Sigh … I can't believe the world has become like this!"
The woman picked up a bottle of perfume and immediately put it down in boredom.
"You're clear now?"
Schaeffer's expression was quite solemn. He gathered all the team members. "What do we need now? Gold ingots and luxury jewelry? No! The bank is just lying there, but without a human government to define it, the gold ingots inside are just a pile of waste paper! It's the same for gold and silver. How many people in the world still recognize them as wealth? "
"I can conclude that for a long time to come, if there is a trade, barter will become the mainstream! So now, we only need things that are useful to us! "
Schaeffer shouted loudly, "Food! Purified water! Medicine! And transportation! "
Hearing this, the other team members all came to a realization, but many of them stuffed diamond necklaces into their pockets.
"Really …"
Seeing them like this, Schaefer shook his head, not knowing what to say.
"Schaeffer, do you need us to bring the people from the sanctuary up here?"
After the woman came to her senses, she immediately asked a very practical question. "To rebuild a city, even if it's just moving supplies, the few of us are far from enough!"
"Now is not the time. Anyway, the supplies are definitely sufficient, and we can't run away …"
Schaeffer sighed. "Lancome, do you still not understand? For the people of the sanctuary, we are not only explorers, but also experimental subjects! "
"Experimental subjects?!"
"Yes, although we are fine now, what about a few days later?"
Schaeffer asked in return. "So, we have to stay on the ground for at least 48 hours to prove to the people of the sanctuary that there is no danger on the ground …"
Kaboom!
A moment later, the sound of boilers and motors could be heard.
A few off-road steam vehicles were driving on the bumpy road. Schaeffer, who was inside, was holding the steering wheel with full concentration. "This road condition is the worst I've ever seen, but it's better to have a car than to walk on our own!"
The other team members were all silent, looking outside through the windows.
More than half of the city had been destroyed. There were potholes, bullet marks, and traces of fire. There were also a large number of corpses.
The originally gorgeous pedestrian street, the lively shops, and the bustling crowd … had all disappeared.
Everything made the city look like hell.
This scene caused the team members, who were originally excited, to immediately become silent. Some of them looked at the gold and diamonds in their arms and lowered their heads sadly.
"It's so quiet …"
The woman's face had a trace of melancholy. "Are we the only survivors of this city?"
"Not necessarily!"
Schaeffer's expression was solemn as he looked at the black dots in front of him. "There's movement!"
