Chapter 1: This is the Earth, can you believe it?
About winter.
The mist (yinyun) smoke and dust, like the smog before the catastrophe, enveloped the entire world.
The earth is deserted, the land is barren for thousands of miles, and occasionally there is yellow sand spinning.
And somewhere in the gathering place of humans, a furry monkey was sitting alone on the shabby roof, holding a potted plant the size of a teacup in his hand, staring blankly.
But I saw that the plants in the potted plants were crystal clear, and it was a grass without the fragrance of flowers.
The emerald green leaves are covered with a layer of translucent substance on the surface, looking like crystals.
“Plant crystallization.”
Chen Ya murmured, his eyes unable to help but look into the distance. His eyes passed through rows of messy shacks and finally fixed on a giant wall made of concrete.
The wall is hundreds of meters high and has a mottled surface. Although it is concrete, it reflects a silver metallic luster in some exposed areas.
That is the lead plate added to the wall.
Then, Chen Ya looked up at the sky and immediately saw a shocked scene.
A brightly lit city actually floats in the sky.
That's right!
It was a huge floating city, completely covering the entire gathering place, and even the sky was blocked.
Chen Ya's eyes were dull. Even after three days, there was still a look of shock in his eyes. He really couldn't believe that humans actually had this technology.
This is so sci-fi!
Quagua... Quagua...
Just then, a loud scream suddenly came from outside the wall.
Chen Ya, who was sitting on the roof, quickly looked over.
I saw a group of black and strange birds approaching the gathering place quickly, and there were hundreds of them in number.
"Raw?"
Chen Ya said in surprise, but to be precise, it should be the mutant raven, because the wingspan of those strange birds exceeded 2 meters, and even the wingspan of some individuals was close to 5 meters.
The mutant raven came in full force, but seemed very afraid of the floating city and only dared to fly towards the gathering place, obviously trying to fly over the walls and attack human refuges.
This scene made Chen Ya feel terrified.
Fortunately, the mutant raven attack also triggered the defensive weapons of the gathering place, and hundreds of orange-red rays of light were shot out from the giant walls.
The light crossed each other to form a powerful firepower net, which instantly caused countless ravens to scream, and then they were covered with flames, falling from the air like dumplings.
With just one volley, the number of mutant ravens was reduced by half.
Less than ten seconds before and after the three-wheeled volley, the ravens were cleaned up, and only burning feathers were left in the sky floating in the wind.
"Is that a laser?"
Chen Ya's eyes were straightened. Even though he was still far away, he could smell the burnt smell floating in the air. He swallowed immediately, gritted his teeth and asked:
"This is the earth, dare you believe it?"
First of all, the changes in the plants. The potted plant in Chen Ya's hand was brought back from the wasteland world outside the wall by the original owner of this body.
According to his observation, the transparent substance covered on the surface of this grass should be a plant active enzyme crystal, which is used to reduce the probability of heavy metal poisoning, and to fully collect light energy and store water, making the plants more drought-tolerant.
As for the concrete walls in the gathering place, the lead plates added inside are naturally to isolate radiation, because the metal element lead is not only good corrosion resistance, but also a radiation-proof material.
And the group of mutant ravens that were killed seemed very terrifying. As birds of the Passerfork, after unknown mutations, their size was even more prey than those of the raptors.
If it were the golden eagle, known as the "King of Raptors", wouldn't it be like a fighter?
Chen Ya was a little confused and had to admit that the world had changed.
What causes this change is radiation, ubiquitous radiation, and various radioactive elements. Chen Ya took a deep breath and the smell in the air was slightly bitter, which was the smell of nuclear radiation.
Three days ago, Chen Ya woke up from this world, where the place was the dilapidated shack under his feet. The original owner of this body was a scavenger living at the bottom of the floor.
Because of his poor life, the original owner took the risk of going out to pick up scatters and heading to the wasteland world outside the wall, but when he came back, he fell seriously ill, and then... nothing happened.
Just hung up!
It should be that it was subjected to large doses of radiation, which eventually led to physical collapse. Even now, Chen Ya still felt a faint pain in his body. It is estimated that some internal organs have problems.
Through the original owner's memory and Chen Ya's observation over the past three days, it gradually discovered that the earth was still the same, but the environment had undergone earth-shaking changes.
About a hundred years ago, an unprecedented nuclear war broke out around the world, which eventually led to the collapse of the earth's ecological environment. A large amount of coal smoke and radioactive dust entered the earth's atmosphere, causing the surface temperature to drop.
From then on, the earth entered nuclear winter for half a century later.
As the leader of this catastrophe, humans naturally received the punishment they deserved. At that time, more than 7 billion people around the world died in the nuclear war alone.
By the time humans wake up, it is too late. The changes caused by the global climate can only allow the remaining humans to hide in underground fortifications and survive.
But humans always yearn for light and cannot survive underground for a lifetime.
Half a century later, humans returned to the surface and faced the devastated earth, and began to try every means to fight against nuclear radiation and improve the earth's environment. Unfortunately, it was all in vain.
Because once a nuclear war breaks out, it is irreversible. Even if the nuclear winter passes, various radioactive materials still exist in the air. After all, the half-life of nuclear radiation can last for hundreds of years.
This also leads to the spread of the disease. Affected by large doses of radiation, humans returning to the surface have gradually become ill, including internal bleeding, leukemia, cancer, cataracts, and other diseases.
Obviously, humans want to make up for their mistakes, but the cost of making up for them is always much more painful than mistakes themselves.
However, this is not the worst.
As nuclear radiation fills the entire world, this has led to fundamental changes in the original ecological chain on the earth. Various organisms have mutated, and countless mutated animals have emerged in endless streams, which greatly threatens human security.
Fortunately, humans still have technology.
In the following time, all human beings united, and technology made a substantial leap, floating cities rose from the ground, and many technological weapons that were once concepts were developed one after another.
Unfortunately, it still has little effect on improving the earth's environment.
In terms of environment, after the catastrophe, the once blue planet has now become a barren land, thousands of miles away, all cities have been transformed into ruins, and even the ocean area has been reduced a lot.
In just a hundred years, the total number of humans was less than one-tenth of the nuclear war before the nuclear war, and the surviving humans had more or less mutations.
Strictly speaking, humans are no longer humans in the traditional sense, and should be called mutant people or mutant people.
for example……
Chen Ya is now a mutant, covered with golden hair, and looks like a furry golden monkey.
"Mao Dan, it's become a monkey!"
Chen Ya's eyes twitched, and he couldn't help but stretch out his furry hand and scratched his ears. He felt like a monkey. If this were based on his previous life, it would probably be a rent-refund phenomenon.
Although he said this, Chen Ya was still a little lucky because after these three days of observation, he found that many mutants were deformed, and it was still good for him to do so.
And the world we are in now is the wasteland world a hundred years after nuclear war.
Chen Ya didn't know how many years had passed, because the memories left by this body were very confusing, and even his thinking was not a normal person.
Because of the original owner's IQ...
There is a problem.
Simply put, it's just mentally retarded!
After all, nuclear radiation is everywhere, and even in the gathering place, the radiation content far exceeds the normal value before the catastrophe. Although the human body has mutated, its resistance to radiation has been greatly improved.
But the harm of nuclear radiation is far beyond imagination.
The most intuitive influence is in addition to physical mutations, which are intelligence and lifespan.
It is certain that the lifespan of mutants in the gathering place usually does not live longer than forty years, and the original owner of Chen Ya's body is a mentally retarded child living at the bottom.
He is only twelve years old. As for whom he remembers, Chen Ya doesn't know. Anyway, his identity is one of the orphans in the shelter, so his parents probably aren't there anymore.
After all, it would be nice to be able to survive in this environment.
Chen Ya didn't have much intention to find his parents with this body. In fact, he is very depressed now, and even said he is depressed.
You know, before he came to this world, he was a well-known wilderness anchor, the outdoors player of a cat platform. Because of an accident when he was exploring in Tibet, he ended up coming to the future world in a daze.
In a blink of an eye, a hundred years have passed, and the world has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The golden monkey sitting on the roof was speechless for a long time.
No, it was Chen Ya, who was speechless for a long time, his thoughts began to fly, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Once, he was broadcasting Qingfeng Mountain live, holding a jungler pick in his hand to chase Tibetan mastiffs.
Once upon a time, he flowed against the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River and bravely climbed the peak with Pipi Otter.
Once, he fought against Shennongjia alone and traveled to the Sichuan-Tibet Line alone.
Those pasts seemed to appear before Chen Ya's eyes one by one.
Do you still remember that him?
