The afternoon sun is a bit hot, and many people feel that the temperature is higher.
Many construction sites in the city have stopped working. The hottest time of the day is from 2 to 4 o'clock. Many construction sites exposed to the artificial sun have temperatures as high as 40 degrees, making it impossible to work.
The huge temperature difference between day and night has been experienced by most people in recent years, especially at night, especially for people at the bottom. The dry and cold air has forced many people to install air conditioners at home.
Fortunately, water pipes will not freeze, because the water pipes laid by Congress at the beginning were made of composite vacuum materials, which can effectively prevent the water from overheating or overcooling.
During the most uncomfortable two hours of the day, most people don't want to take to the streets, and there are still many cars driving slowly on the road.
The number of cars has surged in just three years. Currently, there are as many as 4 million recorded vehicles, and almost every household has a car.
Because of its low price, excellent performance, high safety factor, and relatively stability, the sales of cars in cities are increasing year by year. The cheapest car only costs 5,000 units, but this type of car is only equipped with a road recognition system and no automatic driving system.
However, the system can be upgraded, but it requires a monthly payment. Many people are still willing to drive manually.
In the Phoebes family manor located on the upper floor in the north, Locke took Angus and his wife for a walk in the courtyard. There was a promenade on the water, full of greenery, and many aquatic vines covered the pavilion, giving off a cool breeze.
The wind blows in my face from time to time.
"The Hillman family's actions seem to be a little too big recently. I think we need to pay attention."
Locke said, Violet nodded, and Avano shook his head.
"We do ours and they do theirs. There is no need to fight against them."
The next huge plan of both families is still in operation, but the construction is now very difficult. It is very difficult to establish a transportation network and logistics network underground. The number of workers required, the amount of materials required, and the depth of each underground construction
1 meter, the construction difficulty will increase exponentially.
The design drawings are already available, but the inability to construct is a problem.
"Why don't you ask Lord Jean to see, Avano, Lord Jean and the others may have developed some new technology that may be able to solve it."
Avano shook his head.
"It still takes some time to prepare. We can decide in a few years."
Locke also knows that human lifespan has been extended to about 100 years due to the early life-span vaccines. They are still young now, and it is too late to wait another 20 years.
It's just that Locke has felt something abnormal in his body recently. In fact, many people in the city have experienced physical abnormalities of varying degrees. This is caused by the instability of the lifespan vaccine. The gods have not yet come up with an effective solution.
The most uncomfortable thing is that Locke doesn't know what happened, but his wife has never been able to conceive a child. The birth rate has become extremely low in the past two years, and many people have suffered from infertility.
Looking at the couple next to him, Locke also knew that when he took his wife to the hospital for a check-up, the couple were also in the hospital. They were both troubled by the same problem, unexplained infertility, which for many people
It's bad, especially for families and business people.
Some medical scientists in the city suggested that if you are over 30 years old, you may not be able to have children for the rest of your life. Due to the impact of the life-span vaccine, there is a problem with human fertility genes. This is the biggest problem. Other unexplained ailments and pains do not matter.
, Today’s medical technology can solve many ailments.
It's just that there is a difficult disease caused by genes. So far, there is no solution. The risk of contracting it will continue to increase as time goes by after the age of 30. This unexplained disease will make people's bodies slow down.
weaken, and eventually die.
Some people in their early 30s have begun to fall ill. Although they can still maintain a normal life, their lives are beginning to wither like a plant lacking water day by day. The number of mutants has also increased a lot in the past few years. Currently,
There have been more than 100,000 recorded mutants.
"I really didn't do it on purpose, not on purpose..."
On a street at the bottom of a certain place, there were already more than a dozen corpses of managers on the ground. A mutant who looked extremely uncomfortable was pressing his head and crying and kneeling on the ground. The surrounding area had been blocked. Although he
They are still resisting, but they are exhausted. They have been surrounded by troops on the outside. Once they pass, they will be attacked by heavy firepower.
The mutant looked at the corpse on the ground in despair, but the expression on his face became more and more excited. A black particle overflowed from the corner of the mutant's right eye. He was just a low-level mutant.
Just because of a conflict with a small gang, this mutant accidentally beat two people to death when he was angry. Then when he was about to be arrested by the managers, he kept arguing that it was the other party who came first.
He's in trouble.
According to mutant law, once a mutant initiates such a criminal case, he or she will be severely punished.
However, his rebuttal was only met with ruthless ridicule, and eventually he exploded and killed more than a dozen administrators.
"Hold your head with your hands and lie on the ground."
More than ten meters away from this mutant, there were shields erected. His eyes were slightly red. At this time, a black liquid came out from his left eye. In an instant, the mutant covered his left eye like crazy.
Eye howled.
The black liquid was like a flame. After sliding over the mutant's cheek, it left black burnt marks and black particles began to overflow from his body.
At this time, the manager behind the shield looked at this incredible scene with confusion.
"The people from the inspection team should be arriving soon!"
However, the moment he finished speaking, the administrator's eyes widened, and a flash of black rushed in. In an instant, the metal shields were crushed like mud, and the administrators with shields behind them had turned into pulp.

Accompanied by a burst of furious roars, a blood-stained head flew to the perimeter of the cordon set up by the army, and gunfire erupted in an instant.
The mutants who were like monsters broke through the fire net in an instant, and screams suddenly stopped one after another. In an instant, more than 20 people fell down and died, their bodies were crushed, and their heads were smashed.
The ground sank directly, and the furious mutant let out a shocking roar, and a violent shock wave spread out in all directions along with black particles.
Many administrators and troops who saw this scene turned around and started running.
The mutant seemed to be in pain. He knelt on the ground and beat the ground with his hands. Black liquid flowed from his eyes and was constantly burning his skin. He roared and became more and more furious.
A pipeline operator whose leg bone was directly broken by a broken stone in the impact was whimpering. Looking at the mutant a few meters away from him, he noticed the administrator and rushed over instantly.
Deep fear was written on the administrator's face, and with a flash of red light, the Hawke fell in front of the administrator in an instant, holding the mutant's arm opposite him with one hand.
Fist, he felt shocked, his feet were slightly bent, and the stone slab under his feet shattered and dented.
snap, snap, snap
Pieces of stone slabs were lifted up.
"Calm down."
Hawk looked at the mutant's appearance and felt that something was wrong. Gradually, Hawk felt that he could not withstand the opponent's power. This shocked Hawk that he could withstand an impact of at least 9 tons.
Suddenly Hawke raised a finger, and with a touch of yellow particles overflowing, the soil on the ground suddenly seemed to come alive, directly rolling up the nearby injured who were hit by the gravel, and carried them to the outside.
"You have to take it back and study it."
Just as Hawke was speaking, the mutant in front of him roared wildly. With a loud bang, Hawke flew backwards. A huge airflow instantly tore a hole of tens of centimeters on the ground.
Groove, Hawke raised his arms, the red scabs on them had broken into pieces, and he felt that the bones in his hands had cracked.
The mutant in front of him stared at him blankly, his hands still in a striking state, and the black on his cheeks faded away, revealing a pair of extremely painful eyes. At this time, Hawke saw that the mutant's skin was turning black little by little,
His body also became like weathered stones and began to fall apart.
Hawke hurriedly ran over. The mutant was like a stone, starting to crack and scatter, with black dust flying in the wind.
"What the hell is going on!"
........
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the hot temperature began to slowly subside. At the gate of God's College, a large number of students were still suffering. At this time, those students who had summered on other hillsides returned to the gate of the school. Many people became
Gotta cheer up.
Because there was a countdown on the school gate, there were still 2 hours left.
Locke leaned on the left side of the gate and looked at the more than 300 people at the door. Many people had joy on their faces. In the past two days, some people fainted from hunger, but they continued to persevere.
At this time, many people smelled the aroma of food and kept swallowing their saliva.
The students were waiting silently for the last two hours.
The students inside the college have already come out and are busy quietly in the cafeteria, but meals can only be served at 6 o'clock. Some light and shadow tables and chairs have been placed in the cafeteria, and a strong aroma is exuding from the big pots.
The dishes have been placed, and many students are sitting in front of them, waiting for dinner to start at 6 o'clock.
Mo Xiao was lying on the table, unable to move at all. Alpha and Latis next to him were very energetic, and there was another guy who was also very energetic. Osman, he actually insisted on exercising every day these days, which made everyone in the school
Many students were shocked.
Even Alpha feels that he is really strong and can still maintain moderate exercise every day even when he is hungry. He cannot do it himself, or his body no longer allows it.
"Don't worry Alpha, you are only 9 years old, that guy Osman is already 16 years old, and his physical fitness is definitely stronger than yours."
As the time approached, many people became more energetic, with smiles on their faces and kept swallowing.
