Chapter 19 National Holidays
"You two are back at this time and have you also seen the announcement?" Ling Xiao asked.
"How new, the official has issued an announcement to all the people. Of course, the ones in our system will know first, and we will directly magnify the holiday and wait for notice when we will go to work." Dad Ling nodded.
"It's true that it's a holiday, I guess so." Ling Xiao nodded, saying that he had expected it, "When did you know, and you didn't tell me."
"Hey, I blamed you for dad! How long do you think we can know before you?" Dad Ling spat and explained, "The situation is more urgent. We actually don't know how long before everyone else. We just received the notice."
"But the notice is not only about our unit taking vacations, but in fact, in the entire Zhongzhou, except for the police station, the army, hospitals, all other agencies, enterprises and schools, are on vacations indefinitely!"
"It seems that this time the matter is really serious..." Ling Ma also frowned and added, "From this attitude, it is the earliest, and I guess we have to wait until all the animals are removed from the city before we can resume work."
"And we have to look at the next situation of animal mutation. If insects, birds, etc. start to mutate, it will be really a disaster. I don't know when the order will be restored..." Ling Dad continued.
After a few words, Ling Xiao had basically learned about the matter.
He didn't say much about this. Only he and Jiang Yu knew the secret of dominating the altar. And they had already discussed the seriousness of the matter. The final conclusion was: this secret must not be leaked, otherwise what awaits them is the anger of the whole world, which is enough to instantly subdue them!
After a moment of silence, Ling Ma turned on the TV. Sure enough, the TV was currently playing emergency news about animal mutations.
So the family of three sat honestly in front of the TV and watched the TV with an unprecedented serious attitude.
Unlike the simpler official announcements on the website, the news is much more detailed. Not only did the German Shepherd who Ling Xiao had seen, but also the German Shepherd whom Ling Xiao had not seen, there were many other things that Ling Xiao had never seen before.
Such as an elephant as two floors, its body shape has not changed much, but it has no hair on its body, all covered with shiny black scales, a blood-sucking mosquito as big as a washbasin, and a terrifying python that is as thick as a three-person hugging together. You know, it is a cobra, which is famous for its toxicity, and has grown to such a big size!
Of course, even if it is the same breed, some have become larger and some have become smaller. So far, it seems that there is no pattern of mutation.
It turns out...Without everyone's knowledge, are there so many examples of animal mutations?!
Ling Xiao was dumbfounded and his heart was shocked.
The only thing that is thankful is that the examples shown in the news seem to be distributed around the world, not all from Zhongzhou.
"It is reported that in just half a month, there have been more than 70 cases of such mutant animals worldwide, and they have received reports one after another. People are asked to be careful not to go out unless necessary, and especially pay attention to those insect-like mutant creatures that cannot be controlled.
In addition, Zhongzhou is about to dispatch a large number of military and police to the streets to patrol to protect everyone's lives and safety.
Once you find a mutant animal, you must contact the local police station immediately. After receiving the notice, the military and police will start operations or rescue as soon as possible.
Of course, please don’t panic too much. After experts’ research, after the animal mutation, its temperament has not changed much. Animals that were originally docile are generally docile. Although their physical fitness has improved to a certain extent, it has never exceeded the normal range. Human guns can still easily cause fatal damage to them..."
So, are there already more than 70 cases around the world...
According to the official routine, I am afraid that this number can't be beaten, right?
Ling Xiao pondered inwardly, but fortunately, although the animals were mutating one after another, at least people have begun to be alert. With preparation, there should not be too many casualties...
"It's really a ghost, okay, why did this happen suddenly? First, the world is cloudy, and now the animals have mutated one after another. What's wrong with our earth?" Ling's father was also a state-owned enterprise employee, and he still had some knowledge. He frowned and said worriedly, "And most of the mutated animals are huge and extremely dangerous! From this perspective, if the animals continue to mutate, our human life will probably be completely changed..."
Indeed, for thousands of years, human life has been comfortable for too long. As early as the emergence of iron tools in human society, people's fear of animals has been greatly reduced. Then with the emergence of thermal weapons, animals have completely lost the qualification to become enemies of humanity.
Before the animals mutated this time, besides natural disasters, the only enemy of humans is humans themselves...
What about now?
Although thermal weapons are still extremely lethal to animals, they cannot resist the individual strength of animals to increase sharply, especially those creatures that can fly!
In the past, there were only a few large species of raptors that could fly and were extremely aggressive, and among them, only a few of them could truly pose a fatal danger to humans.
The wonder is that such a few birds of prey cannot reach human cities at all, or they cannot survive in human cities at all.
But now it's different. Imagine that the sparrows and other birds that usually fly by in the city and insects that keep flying among the grass. If their size has grown to a large enough level, even if they do not actively attack people, people will be extremely afraid of it, right?
What if there are some birds with poor eyes treat humans as insects?
What if some insects are not actually unaggressive, but are just because they were too small before and could not pose a threat to humans?
Therefore, if the animal mutation involved this time is as serious as Ling Xiao imagined, then it is foreseeable that even if all animals are driven out of the city, mosquitoes, rats and ants, and birds flying in the sky, will still pose a great threat to people's life safety!
As for this threat, neither the police station nor the military, there is no big solution. At most, you can only patrol all day long, and you can only get one after another. It’s just a drop in the bucket.
The final result is: From now on, most people can only stay at home honestly, unless they buy necessary daily necessities and dare not go out easily. In the end, the order of human society is slowly collapsed, and the era when humans live in the shadow of animals will come again after thousands of years!
I have to say that this will be the sorrow of all human beings...
No, you must not let this happen!
The deeper the thinking, the tighter the Ling Xiao's fist became, and he had already turned pale. He always had a kind of thing that was because of himself that this series of events happened. The feeling of causing great disasters himself has been lingering in his heart and cannot be relieved for a long time.
Unfortunately, after blindly being angry, he had to admit that no matter how much he felt guilty and didn't want these things to happen, he had no way to stop all this...
