Chapter 72, Eastern Radiation Township (Part 2)
The dark night, the corrupt and decadent wasteland world
The crazy howling wind mixed with thousands of lightnings, and the icy torrential rain poured down like a waterfall, covering the entire earth in the heavy rain, as if countless whips were beating the earth, ravaging it wantonly. This already dilapidated wasteland world.
Such heavy rains in early summer should have been a precious gift to nourish all things, but since the tragic all-out nuclear war destroyed the entire earth, rain has become synonymous with nightmares - this kind of black rain mixed with a large amount of radioactive dust will not only cause It causes great harm to the human body, causing people to rot from the internal organs to the skin. It will further strangle the vitality of the land, making it impossible for crops to grow normally, and agriculture and animal husbandry are impossible to talk about.
However, the vast majority of Japanese people do not need to think about hunger - because they are already dead before they starve!
Compared to the lifeless purgatory outside, being able to stay in a warm and dry underground shelter, eating simple, cheap but sufficient food, and watching the nightmare world on the surface through the surveillance screen may be considered a kind of enjoyment.
Sitting on the last row of seats in the vast auditorium of the underground hideout, Ma Tong was chewing the Morinaga chewing gum he had just bought from the [era vending machine], and was imagining it with great boredom, while listening to the voice of the man in black. Mr. Soichiro Takagi presided over a funeral in person.
"...Compatriots, today, we have suffered an extremely huge loss, that is, my adjutant and close friend, the well-known Doi Tetsutarou. He was extremely diligent, fair and kind, and most importantly, he was a very good person. Enthusiastic friends...
One day ago, when we were trying to dig a tunnel and search for survivors in the Tokyo subway, we unfortunately encountered a flood and landslide. It was he who pulled down the sealed door at the critical moment and saved the entire construction team, but unfortunately sacrificed his own life... It can be seen that this is a noble person, a pure person, and a moral person. A person who has escaped from vulgar taste, a person who has contributed to us..."
……
Although the funeral scene was sad and serious, Ma Tong felt somewhat alienated and out of place. It seemed difficult to integrate into their atmosphere... Just when she was about to doze off heartlessly, something suddenly happened next to her. A guy who was covered in cold sat down.
"...Ah Zhi, what are you doing? Well, there is a coffin over there? Is it a memorial service?"
Wang Qiu wiped his nose with toilet paper and asked in a low voice, "...Who died? And how did he die?"
"...The good old man Uncle Doi, the adjutant of Boss Gaocheng, died because he was saving people. Hey, although people with a personality like his are happy to make friends with him, they are really not suitable for this cruel person. The end of the world!”
Ma Tong shrugged his shoulders and replied, "...By the way, what was your harvest from this expedition? Did you find any survivors?"
"...Forget it, not a single survivor has been found! Today, the surface of the Kanto region is covered with strong radiation and volcanic ash, and the air and water are filled with highly toxic substances. Not to mention fragile humans, even rats. You may not survive!”
Wang Qiu covered his nose with a tissue and replied angrily, "...in remote places like western Japan and Hokkaido, there may be a few people alive here and there, but the distance is too far and we didn't have time to get there...the work of collecting property It didn’t go well either, there was another tsunami and another It was the volcano and the nuclear explosion that destroyed everything. It took us a lot of effort, like robbing a tomb, to pull out the remains of some old vehicles and ships from the volcanic ash. Pawned 350 million yen...
Moreover, although everyone has taken protective measures and used universal adaptive lights, primary school students like Nobita Nobita and Shizuka Minamoto still complained endlessly. When they came back, they complained that they were itchy all over and had rashes on their skin, and they couldn't say anything. I don’t want to come to this ghost place a second time..."
"...Eh? There is still strong radiation on the surface outside?! Wait, are you correct?"
Ma Tong, who had never left the shelter, blinked strangely, "...Didn't we use hydrogen bombs to blow up all the nuclear power plants in Japan before, eliminating the risk of nuclear leaks? Moreover, that tsunami was almost one kilometer high. , but the waves from the Pacific Ocean to the Sea of Japan are equivalent to washing most of Japan. The radiation dust should also be carried away by the waves! It can be washed away a lot no matter what!"
< br>
"...Being cleansed by the sea water is only temporary, there are still radiation clouds floating in the sky!"
Wang Qiu smiled bitterly and said, "...don't forget, the stupid humans in this world have just finished a devastating global nuclear war, throwing more than 30,000 nuclear bombs at each other, and detonating at least 20,000 nuclear reactors! I don't know what to do. How many tons of radioactive materials have been sent into the atmosphere! Even if the source of nuclear pollution in the Japanese archipelago is removed by violent means, the atmospheric circulation will send radioactive materials from other places!
In fact, as far as the world is concerned, the current radiation level in the Japanese archipelago is relatively low. The coastal areas of Europe and mainland China are even worse than Japan. The United States is truly extinct - as the world's hegemon. The fifty states of the United States have been hit by at least 10,000 nuclear bombs, with an average of two hundred mushroom clouds spread across each state! Coupled with those leaking reactors and nuclear waste warehouses... Well, I'm afraid that in many centuries to come, most of North America will become a place of death... Sneeze! ”
Halfway through, he suddenly shuddered, his face became more and more ugly, and then he jumped up, "...No way! I have to take a hot bath quickly, otherwise my body will be frozen... …This ghostly weather in the radiation apocalypse is so cold that people feel like their souls are about to leave their bodies…”
"...What? Is it cold outside? It seems to be early summer in May now!" Ma Tong said in disbelief, "...not to mention that there is such a big furnace like Mount Fuji erupting...how can it be very cold?"
"...Sister Tongtong, I remember that you used to like reading science fiction novels. Have you forgotten what nuclear winter is?"
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Nuclear winter is a terrifying theory proposed by American scientists during the Cold War to prove that the harm of nuclear war is far greater than expected.
Specifically, it refers to a large-scale climate disaster that will inevitably occur after the outbreak of global nuclear war.
The nuclear winter theory believes that when a large number of nuclear weapons are dropped on the surface, especially after the widespread use of nuclear weapons against flammable targets such as cities, a large amount of smoke and black carbon will enter the earth's atmosphere, and some will enter as high as 12 kilometers above the stratosphere, which is likely to result in very cold weather ——The layer of smoke and black carbon particles entering the atmosphere will significantly reduce the total amount of sunlight reaching the ground. What is even worse is that this layer of particles can stay in the atmosphere for decades (produced by burning petroleum and plastic products The smoke and black carbon absorb sunlight more effectively than the smoke from burning wood). This causes the upper atmosphere to heat up and the surface temperature to drop, producing a meteorological effect that is opposite to the greenhouse effect, making the surface look like a cold winter. Next, the mid-latitude westerly belt will continue to transport smoke and dust to all parts of the world, forming a huge black cloud belt surrounding the northern hemisphere between 30 and 60 degrees north latitude. These thick black clouds will block most of the sunlight for decades, causing the surface temperature to drop dramatically during this period, and the temperature drop can reach up to tens of degrees Celsius!
This decades-long darkness and severe cold, coupled with high doses of radiation from radioactive dust, will inevitably seriously destroy the ecological environment of animals and plants on the earth - a large number of animals and plants will freeze to death in the darkness. The entire biological chain will be severed! Coupled with high doses of radiation and pollution of fresh water resources, even humans who survive a nuclear war will soon be destroyed due to lack of food and clothing, epidemics of plague, and internal strife over limited survival resources. Mass death breaks out again...this is the darkest nuclear winter!
——In the past few decades, nuclear winter was just a theory, but now, it has become a cruel fact!
Perhaps after centuries of buffering, the broken nature will eventually heal the scars on its body with difficulty and slowness, but the entire generations before that will never see the sun again - if they still If it can be reproduced.
In this situation where the surface of the earth is shrouded in radiation and darkness, if there are still people who can survive, then the only possible hiding place is the shelter hidden deep underground. It is with this idea in mind that Soichiro Takagi decided to Borrowing a batch of magical tools from Doraemon, he overcame many difficulties and even paid the life of a capable subordinate to open a tunnel from Bedou City to the Tokyo Subway. But the result is very disappointing: due to the relationship between the terrain and the tsunami, the Tokyo subway has been filled with highly radioactive seawater. Except for a few zombies, no living people can survive... Perhaps, the entire Japanese nation There are less than a thousand people left in this underground shelter!
It is precisely because of this awareness that the survivors showed such despair and sadness at the current funeral.
——This is not only saying goodbye to a familiar person forever, but also burying the memory of the old world forever.
“…the grief we all feel together today reminds me, and it reminds everyone. This is why we come from different places and speak with different accents, but we are still united. In these desperate circumstances, , only unswerving unity and selfless sacrifice are the only guarantees that can enable us to overcome disasters and continue to survive and reproduce!
As long as we can continue to unite and fight for the survival of our nation, Tetsutaro Doi's sacrifice was not in vain! Farewell! My dear friend, I hope that one day I can bury you under the blue sky with blooming flowers! ”
In the low lamentation, Soichiro Takagi ended his eulogy, and then six strong men worked together to lift the coffin, put it on the slowly moving metal conveyor belt, and finally filled it into the incinerator that had been prepared, ready to burn the body into ashes. Afterwards, it is stored in a shelter for a long time. Until one day he can return to the surface and build a real tomb for him... The survivors watching the ceremony bowed their heads in silence, and Sister Ma Tong naturally lowered her head in response, but her mind was completely on another place.
"...Hey, Uncle Doi didn't get any reward points for his death! Sure enough, if a plot character has already changed his destiny, even if he changes his destiny again, there will be no points left to gain? What should I do to get enough points? Where are the last thousand reward points for leaving this world?”
Ma Tong rolled his eyes and muttered to himself, "...I really don't want to stay in this cave life like a mouse for another day."
At the same time, in a bathroom filled with water mist, our male protagonist Wang Qiu encountered an unprecedented crisis in his life.
Just as he was lying in the bathtub filled with warm water, humming a tune and closing his eyes to relax, two beautiful ladies suddenly broke in, sandwiched him one after another, and came up. They used their vaginas that were seriously oversized to perform a stunt on Wang Qiu's breasts! In short, our male protagonist Wang Qiu finally got lucky this time, and was pushed back by two sexy girls!
——Although the reason why he was thrown into the arms of beautiful women has nothing to do with the so-called masculine charm...it feels really sad!
