C2 Research Base
Zhou Heng packed up the supplies in the shelter and immediately ran out.
Zhou Guoqiang looked at the sweaty Zhou Heng and asked in confusion, "It's already so late. Why are you in such a hurry to run out?"
Zhou Heng replied without turning his head, "I went to the supermarket."
"What is he busy with every day?"
Zhou Guoqiang rolled his eyes at Zhou Heng and shook his head. Then, he continued to watch TV.
"Did you guys hear? A few days ago, a lot of animals in the Red Mountain Forest Zoo died. A lot of experts came here to investigate."
"That's right. I heard that those tigers and lions died strangely."
"After hearing what you guys said, I suddenly remembered that last month, people found a huge cave at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Moreover, there were strange screams coming from the cave."
"Really? There are so many strange things happening recently."
"The news just reported that the solar speck was about to explode. These strange things might have been caused by it."
"Will it affect the survival of humans? This is too scary."
Zhou Heng walked on the street and could hear people discussing the strange things that had happened recently.
Most people felt that all these strange things happening together was just a coincidence.
However, Zhou Heng knew in his heart that the dead animals would be the first wave of zombies in the disaster period.
There were species at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean that could make humans despair.
"Sister Zhang, have the goods I ordered arrived yet?"
Zhou Heng came to the supermarket and looked at Chen Yuhua, who was busy at the counter.
"Those goods are at the door."
Chen Yuhua pointed at the instant noodles at the door and said, "Why did you buy so many instant noodles? And you even ordered a lot of mineral water and compressed biscuits. Are you going to open a small shop at home?"
"Of course not."
Zhou Heng smiled and said, "These things are for us to eat."
"Those things you bought are enough for you to eat for one or two years."
"If this amount of food can sustain you for three months, then it's already very good."
Zhou Heng smiled bitterly.
Thinking about the painful life that he would have to go through in ten days, Zhou Heng was very nervous.
After Zhou Heng paid the bill, he hired a car to transport the instant noodles back home.
While the workers were unloading the goods, Zhou Heng received a lot of messages on his phone.
Zhou Heng picked up his phone and looked at the messages. His face immediately darkened.
"The Arctic Glacier has melted in large areas, and the water level has risen significantly."
"An enormous wave has appeared in the Atlantic Ocean, instantly drowning three cargo ships. We are unable to find those three cargo ships."
"A huge strange shadow has been discovered in the Bermuda Triangle, and the experts are unable to identify what it is."
A series of strange events had happened all over the world.
Zhou Heng looked at the starry sky and couldn't help but clench his fists.
There were only ten days left!
He had to survive the global disaster!
In the next two days, apart from obtaining survival points through signing up, Zhou Heng spent the rest of his time buying resources.
He bought a lot of food, medical supplies, and various warm clothes.
In these two days, Zhou Heng spent all of his savings, and even the credit card's balance.
The things in the sanctuary increased in number.
However, Zhou Heng still felt insecure.
He had to pay attention to the global disaster.
On the last day before the disaster.
Zhou Heng had renovated the sanctuary once again.
The sanctuary had been upgraded from 140 square meters to 420 square meters.
It had become a very safe sanctuary.
However, this was far from enough for Zhou Heng.
Then, he used all of his remaining survival points to upgrade the household facilities in the sanctuary.
The second-hand ordinary fridge was upgraded into a huge high-end fridge.
His warehouse had doubled in size.
In addition, the heating machine and generator were upgraded.
While Zhou Heng was busy, the world outside was also undergoing a huge change.
The natural disaster that no one cared about before had directly affected people's daily lives.
On the third day of the global disaster.
The food ingredients in the world suddenly became scarce, and the price of food had increased by five times.
On the fourth day.
The earthquake in North America had caused the deaths of millions of people.
February 5th.
The price of commodities once again skyrocketed. A bag of white rice was worth as much as a sports car, but the price of the house price had sharply dropped.
February 6th.
All the countries in the world had announced the highest order to forbid people from leaving the country.
Only then did the people of the world realize that the impact of this disaster was devastating.
During this period of time, the thing that made Zhou Heng happiest was that his shelter actually had a technological research center.
Although this technological research center was only 120 square meters, it was very modern.
Furthermore, only Zhou Heng himself could enter.
Zhou Heng discovered that he could create weapons in the technological center.
During the The Cataclysm, weapons were the most critical things.
During the The Cataclysm, everyone was unable to live a normal life.
A woman could sacrifice her body for a bag of biscuits and a bottle of water without hesitation.
A man could kill people for food.
During the The Cataclysm, people were no longer able to abide by morality.
With weapons, they could better protect themselves and their families.
Shelter - Research Base
Level: 0
Current research project: Desert Eagle
Because the level of the Research Base was relatively low, there were fewer research projects.
However, when the level of the Research Base was raised, there would be a lot more research projects.
For example, when the Research Base reached Level 1, it would be able to develop high-tech projects such as UAVs.
When the Research Base reached a certain level, it would even be able to develop a teleportation gate and a super time-space mecha.
Zhou Heng was shocked.
Not to mention the era of The Cataclysm, even in the era of peace, it would not be a problem to unify the world with these technological equipment.
"System, how do I level up this Research Base? Do I need to spend survival points?"
"The more survival points you spend, the faster you can level up the Research Base."
Hearing that, Zhou Heng nodded. This was not bad. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the energy to upgrade the Sanctuary and the Research Base.
Zhou Heng realized that he still had twenty survival points left. Therefore, he immediately used these twenty survival points to exchange for a Desert Eagle.
"Exchange successful!"
A golden light flashed in front of Zhou Heng's eyes.
A Desert Eagle appeared in front of Zhou Heng.
Zhou Heng held the Desert Eagle in his hand and felt very excited.
