Chapter 169: Chapter 170: The Erupted Disaster, More Than Just Two

Listening to the rain outside, Lin Yue lay on the bed, covering himself with a soft quilt, and closed his eyes.

The disaster response measures in the shelter had been done to the best of his ability.

Whether it was the stone walls that wrapped around the shelter, greenhouse, airplanes, and cars, or the multi-layered flood defense sandbags he had piled up, and the drainage ditch he had dug over half a meter deep leading to a low-lying area, even if a flood struck, it could basically ensure that the room would not easily be submerged by the flood.

Of course, if it was one of those sudden floods two or three meters high, forget about it, even gods would have a hard time saving them.

If the system really intended to bring such a massive flood, then this so-called "survival game" would really be pointless to continue, as humanity would be wiped out completely.

But judging from the last two disasters, the system doesn’t seem to want to be that extreme, so...

Why not have a good night’s sleep?

Do you really have to fight to stay awake until the rain stops?

Moreover, Lin Yue had already prepared a backup plan.

Before sleeping, Lin Yue instructed Bai to inform the other Little Ice Lizards to constantly watch out for leaks. If any similar situation occurred, they should spray ice mist to freeze the leak, and if the situation was too severe, they should wake him up immediately.

The exhaustion from the entire day made Lin Yue very tired, so much so that he didn’t even feel like opening the Copper Treasure Chest, Silver Treasure Chest, and Golden Treasure Chest.

Whether it was the Secret Realm or the Underground Ruins, he had looted a huge amount of stuff, reaping plentiful rewards.

To some extent, he had given the group members a little help, as far as he could.

In fact, thinking carefully about it, no one wants the whole world to be left with only themselves as a human being; such tremendous loneliness and despair is unimaginable and unbearable for him.

Thinking about these things, it didn’t take long for him to fall asleep.

The burning torch, at some unknown time, suddenly extinguished, and the whole shelter plunged into darkness.

The torrential rain kept pouring down.

They fell on the ground, corroding and engulfing all the mutant creatures who couldn’t hide in time, and also flooding the shelters of survivors who underestimated the disaster and failed to prepare beforehand.

The desperate wails continuously erupted in the rainy night, soon cut off by the madly rushing flood, and ultimately fell silent.

Survivors who hid in the Underground Ruins in advance soon discovered that it wasn’t much better than above.

No moral concepts, no legal constraints.

Crowded, chaotic, language barriers, cognitive differences, and the fear of disaster, along with complex emotions toward strangers, soon tore apart what little order and rules remained between humans even further.

Theft, robbery of supplies, threatening and coercing with weapons in their hands, gangs running rampant, and even Lizardmen occasionally appearing to assault and attack...

The wails, cries, and despairing growls of people endlessly echoed within this seemingly safe Underground Ruins.

Unknowingly, this place became the best breeding ground for lethal desires, turning into a hell for human nature.

Beneath the ground, where the flood was already half a meter deep, another disaster was quietly occurring and intensifying!

The night passed slowly and was long.

People above endured the devastation of acid rain and flood disaster, while people below endured the interrogation of human nature.

The catastrophe isn’t just two.

Although some say there are only two, from the beginning it wasn’t just two.

...

Upon waking up.

Lin Yue opened his sleepy eyes.

The room was completely dark, and from beside him came the even breathing of Bai and the Little Ice Lizards, as well as the still dense sound of rain pouring down.

He gently got out of bed and looked at the time on the system panel.

It was nine in the morning.

"Gah-woo."

Bai sensed the slight movements of its master in the darkness, raised its head, and softly called out.

"Bai, you’re awake?" Lin Yue lit a torch and put it back where the original one had gone out.

He did almost everything last night, except remember the torch.

The blazing flame quickly increased the temperature of the slightly cold shelter, and the bright firelight dispelled the darkness.

Lin Yue picked up the flashlight and tidied up his clothes.

Although the Little Ice Lizards hadn’t awakened him last night, it didn’t mean that his shelter was entirely waterproof.

He went to the window and looked at the place almost completely sealed with ice, confirming there was no water leakage, and found Bai had also come to his side.

"Bai, come with me to check around."

"Gah-woo." Bai nodded, sniffing the faint acidity in the air, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

Lin Yue took out a piece of Lion-headed Bear meat and put it in Bai’s mouth; if something happened, Bai wouldn’t be able to do anything on an empty stomach.

Bathroom, kitchen, Bai’s room and the others’, followed by Greenhouse No. 1 and Greenhouse No. 2.

After checking everything and finding only minor leaks in certain places, he felt somewhat relieved.

He noticed that although the raindrops were still pouring down, they were much smaller compared to before.

This was somewhat similar to the previous snow disaster, although the snow stopped earlier back then.

"Gah-woo." Bai suddenly looked at the basement stairs, and Lin Yue quickly understood and led it to the basement.

Drip, drip.

Somewhere a sound of water droplets falling was heard, and Lin Yue immediately located it following the sound.

"It’s all right, just a little leak, it can be remedied." The corner of the stone basement was permeated by acid rain, starting to drip water at almost a two-to-three-second frequency, but fortunately, the area wasn’t large and there hadn’t been any water accumulation.

The stacked goods also escaped a calamity because of this.

Lin Yue felt somewhat fortunate, but Bai’s reaction was quite intense.

It went directly to that corner and continuously sprayed freezing mist, covering a large area of the corner’s top with frost in a very short time.

Even the dripping place was completely frozen into a solid block!

Goodness, more careful than myself.

Lin Yue couldn’t help but marvel; Bai indeed learned some of his cautious traits and surpassed him.

"Can’t go out again, might as well do something else. Bai, is this time’s Underground Ruins Stone Gate still in the basement?"

"Gah-woo!" Bai nodded to Lin Yue and led him to the iron-clad part of the basement.

The stone gate, blocked layer by layer with five stone walls, seemed not to have disappeared.

"I think it changes every seven days or so? Does that mean I can still enter Zone F?"

However, thinking back, all maps of Zone F had already been unlocked, and most Lizardmen had been slain, so he had no more ideas about it.

He lastly arrived at the High-Precision Research Workstation.

"There’s a lot of work undone, better start with this!"
