Chapter 7: Leak news
What was gratifying was that this was several days earlier than expected...
With this, Evander had more time to deal with other matters!
During this period, the defenses of the shelter were fully activated.
All facilities began to operate at full capacity.
The humanoid robots were also ready to go.
As soon as Evander gave the order, they could rush to the front line to carry out Evander's instructions.
"Sir, since the new shelter has been fully built, please name the shelter!"
Hearing Thaddeus's voice, Evander suddenly remembered that the shelter had not been named yet.
"In the game background, this shelter bears the mission and responsibility of protecting the last humans, and now it is the same in the real world.
If, as in the game ending, the Earth will eventually be destroyed, then this shelter will be the only possibility to preserve the spark of human life....
In this case, let's call it the 'Fire - carrying Shelter'! The fire is passed on from generation to generation, and we will forge ahead bravely. I may not be the creator of the new world, but I will be the guardian of the future fire!"
December 26th.
The cold wind was bleak, and the Spring Festival was approaching.
All electronic devices that could receive news around the world, such as TVs, mobile phones, and computers.
received a message at the same time.
A message that made their increasingly strong festive atmosphere disappear without a trace.
That was the official finally announced that an asteroid was about to hit the Earth.
"Dear viewers, after deliberation by the highest headquarters, a level - nine hazard warning is now issued nationwide."
"One year ago, a huge asteroid named BYZ12138 was falling towards the Earth at the speed of light. During this year, the world's five major official agencies have tried every possible means. Although they succeeded in shattering the asteroid, the two largest fragments are now approaching the Earth.
At the same time, because the subsequent interception plans have failed successively, it is expected that in five days, that is, on New Year's Eve, those two asteroids will fall to the Earth!
And once they fall on the Earth, unpredictable disasters will occur, such as high - level earthquakes, high - level tsunamis, submarine volcanic eruptions, and crustal movements. All of these are possible. This will be a catastrophe, which will bring immeasurable damage to the entire Earth."
"The highest headquarters reminds everyone to be prepared for disasters in the next few days, and do their best to store living supplies and clean water sources. At the same time, we have also set up temporary shelters in various cities. Residents who are really in trouble can go there, and there will be special people to arrange for you.
Also, the highest headquarters reminds everyone that at any time, the state will protect the legitimate rights and interests of every citizen. The national laws are always your sharp tools to protect yourself. Once any illegal or criminal behavior occurs, it will not be tolerated and will be severely punished directly!"
As this news was played on various electronic devices.
The whole country was in an uproar.
Who could have thought that?
It was almost New Year's Day, and such a thing could still happen?!
"Does it still let people have a proper New Year? I finally got home after a long time, and now it's the end of the world?"
"It's all over. I didn't have money to celebrate the New Year this year, and now there is an asteroid impact. Isn't this deliberately killing people?"
"Alas, it has been difficult these years. Now even the New Year can't be celebrated well?"
"Damn it. Since I still have a few hundred yuan in my hand, I'd better go and buy some flour and water quickly! Look how nervous the officials are. Who knows how long it will last."
"Let it hit. I just don't want to live anymore..."
"Hmph! It's just right that I'm worried about not having money to celebrate the New Year! Then I can go to the official - set shelter to eat and drink for free!!"
For a while, there were all kinds of opinions on the Internet.
There was everything.
And those who didn't go online were buying supplies in large quantities in supermarkets at this moment.
Some even quarreled because of the long waiting time in line.
The streets were also full of cars that wanted to leave the city or go home.
You blocked me, and I blocked you.
On the road, the honking sounds were continuous.
But there was also a part of people who didn't care much.
They thought it was just a false message released by the officials.
Even if it is true, what then?
When the time comes, will they drive themselves out of the shelter?
So even if they were nervous, the number of nervous people was very limited.
After all, many people believed that with the state's support, they would always have something to eat no matter how bad it was.
And at this moment, Evander also sent out the news about the cosmic virus and zombies that he had prepared in advance immediately after the end of the news through Thaddeus.
There were only five days left before the end of the world. Although the outcome could not be changed, at least it gave people a preventive measure to see if the casualties could be reduced as much as possible.
Instantly, this news set off a sensation on the Internet through Thaddeus's dissemination and quickly caused a great uproar. The already panicked people became even more panicked.
But when they learned that this news was not from the officials and also saw the official's refutation, they were slightly relieved.
And they cursed the person who released this false news one after another.
What time is it? Still joking around, grabbing attention, and riding on hot topics.
And the officials were also looking for the figure of this publisher.
But strangely, the officials couldn't find out who sent it!
For a moment, even the officials began to have doubts.
And not only the officials, but also many capable people noticed that something was wrong and began to make arrangements secretly...
On the other side, Evander, who had just finished sending the news, picked up his mobile phone and saw that someone in the class group was @him again.
Most of the classmates in the group were discussing this news.
Some people cursed loudly after seeing Evander's news.
"Damn it, what time is it? There are still such attention - grabbing things!!"
"Yes, yes. Such people really hope that the world will be in chaos."
At the same time, they were surprised that what Celeste, the female student with the highest rank in the school, said was true.
"Celeste is really different! She can know the news so early in advance."
"Yes! It's half a month earlier than us!"
"@Everyone, classmates, actually after Celeste finished speaking last time, my family also started to prepare. Until half a month ago when I received the definite news, my father also immediately increased the intensity of storing supplies. Now my family's warehouse and cold storage are full of rice, flour, grain and oil, instant noodles, biscuits and mineral water!"
Mayer said proudly.
Then, he also attached many pictures of supplies piled up like mountains.
The scene of instant noodles piled into small hills, walls built with boxes of biscuits, a whole warehouse of mineral water....
"Wow! Big boss, please support me!! I just went out to grab and got only one bag of rice..."
"No wonder your family runs a chain supermarket. The preparation is so sufficient!"
"Actually, people with a little bit of channels knew this as early as a month ago. Our family knew it half a month ago, which was already very late. I believe that those richer and more powerful people have already prepared their own shelters at this moment, and they are all guarded and protected by special people!"
Mayer continued.
