495. It is urgent to save mankind

The recording ends here.

There were also some daily complaints in the middle. In Lu Tan's mind, he quickly built up an image of an upright researcher who liked to eat beef ramen, listen to classical music, and was enthusiastic about research. At the same time, he also lost his daughter due to disasters.

"bridge?"

Lu Tan checked the contents in his notebook again and determined that this researcher should be studying how to launch spacecraft into the outer universe.

However, unlike the outer space astronauts that Lu Jian knew, what he was researching was probably the technology of traveling through foreign lands.

Lu Jian didn't know what kind of disasters had befallen people at that time, but it was undoubtedly difficult to leave this planet and find a new home in outer space.

Maybe some people were bewitched by the evil gods of foreign lands, and gradually mastered the method of traveling through foreign lands, or opening the passage between foreign lands and this world, and finally released the monsters from foreign lands, causing a complete disaster here.

Playing the recording on the tablet to Shuang Xin, the researcher was a little silent.

"So...he caused the swarm?"

Shuangxin's expression was a little gloomy.

In her opinion, this researcher has been working towards a good starting point from beginning to end, just like herself now.

A good beginning does not necessarily mean a good outcome.

"It's not clear yet."

Lu Tan shook his head.

It would be biased to determine the truth based on this record alone.

He searched again in the building, turned on the electronic devices one by one, and found only a part of the map of the park.

Following the map, Lu Tan and Shuang Xin came to the Institute of Biology.

The damage here was even more serious, with almost no buildings on the ground left.

But Lu Jian discovered that the underground part here was even deeper.

He took the crowbar and made his way down the stairs, Frostheart following behind.

It was pitch black down here. Lu Jian wrote "Glow" on a stone and held it in his hand. The light shone, revealing a simple and mottled staircase.

Going down, Lu Jian found that the place was more completely preserved, perhaps because it was underground and had not been weathered by sand, so he could see the slogans on the wall.

【It is urgent to save mankind】

[In the face of disaster, race against time]

[This is the minute you waste, and it is also the minute that mankind will die]

It's quite depressing and makes you breathless.

In the underground laboratory, there are only some broken glass containers, which makes people wonder what they once contained.

Lu Tiao also saw a room with many beds, like a ward.

He and Shuangxin came to the third underground floor. It looked like a research office, with corroded filing cabinets and computers.

Lu Tan opened the computer as usual, and those fluorescent screens from hundreds of years ago used his last strength to display pictures and text.

[The third report...about plans for genetic modification to allow humans to adapt to a dramatically changing environment...the causes of climate change, the next development situation, land survey reports...]

[A research report on the effects of special minerals on the human body... It is reported that most patients exposed to radiation from this substance have certain distortions. At present, the research on these distortions has not been in-depth...



[Distorted medical record 1. The patient endured three hours of radiation. The specific manifestations were that the color of his eyes changed, and crystalline precipitates could be observed. After testing, the patient was able to see through a fifty-millimeter-thick wall..

....]

[Regarding the effects of artificial distortion, after testing, an obvious rejection reaction was found, manifested in rapid failure of body organs and damage to the brain...]

Most of these documents study the radiation of a certain mineral to the human body and the diseases and distortions it causes.

This is easily reminiscent of the crystal disease that everyone in the wilderness suffers from today.

According to the current history of the wasteland, the prevalence of this disease is the main reason for the demise of mankind.

According to these documents, crystal disease is not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

Of course, we don’t know where the original radioactive ore came from, but subsequent research and human experiments were all done by humans.

Researchers tried to use these minerals to transform the human body and adapt to the changing environment, but they did not expect that this transformation would lead to short lifespan and more disasters.

It can be said that if these ores are magic boxes thrown by the devil to humans, then opening it will be humans themselves.

"How could..."

Frostheart felt unbelievable.

She has always believed that crystal disease, like insect swarms, is a natural disaster.

But now, both of these may have been caused by humans themselves.

For her, there was a feeling of collapse of her outlook on life.

Lu tripping over is still acceptable.

This is not the first time that humans commit suicide.

In various literature, film and television works, there are thousands of ways to destroy the earth.

Moreover, in worlds like foreign lands, those that develop normally and are not polluted, it is difficult to say that they will not be coveted by other foreign lands, such as the deep sea, foggy city, Twilight City and other foreign lands. I am afraid that I would even dream of invading other foreign lands.

, develop colonies.

The most unlucky thing about the wasteland is probably that it was targeted by two foreign lands at the same time.

Maybe it's the malicious intentions of other foreign lands, or maybe it's just the evil gods' unintended intentions. Ores with radiation are a kind of pollution, and bridges connecting foreign lands are also a kind of pollution.

Humanity in this world fell apart under the tide of pollution, and civilization was destroyed. In the end, only the "new humans" who adapted to pollution survived.

The history of the wasteland that Lu Tiao knows now is a complete, contaminated history of destruction, adaptation, and rebirth in a foreign land.

However, Lu Tan is not sure whether the current wasteland can be considered a rebirth.

The existence of crystal disease has stagnated the development of science and technology and culture in this world, and the existence of insect swarms has accelerated the wasteland toward complete destruction.

In a few hundred years, there will probably be nothing but gravel left in this world, without any life left.

Lu Jian and Shuang Xin continued to move forward and came to a relatively well-preserved building near the rocket launcher.

The sign hanging here says "Command Center."

The two walked upstairs, checked it, and quickly found a document from the electronic device.

[Report and summary on several solutions to solve current global disasters]

The land trip opens.

[...Currently, rare natural disasters have occurred around the world. In the past three months, more than ten volcanoes have erupted, including two Category 6 volcanoes and a Category 7 volcano...

...]

[...Two typhoons of level 16 have formed on the ocean, and more than 50 countries and regions will be affected...]

[...A disease spreads among crops. Currently, global corn and wheat production is expected to decrease by 90%...]

[...Affected by the epidemic, more than 20 countries and regions have fallen into a state of anarchy. Currently, international humanitarian relief work has been unable to be carried out...]

【....A magnitude 9 earthquake hit the West Coast, more than a million people were affected, and tens of millions were displaced...】

At the beginning of the report was a report about disasters. It was hard for Lu Jing to imagine that so many rare disasters could happen in such a short period of time.

He seriously suspected that there might be other chosen ones from other lands who summoned evil gods or released certain seals in this world.

Looking through these disasters that could reduce the world's population by half if chosen at random, Lu Jian saw the countermeasures behind them.
