Chapter 398: Receive a reply

This rain water seems to be a big problem.

Falling from the sky, losing so much heat during its descent, yet still maintaining such a high temperature upon reaching the ground.

He was somewhat looking forward to it now; if the rain continued to fall by noon tomorrow, it would be interesting.

He estimated that the temperature of the rainwater, if not ninety degrees Celsius, would at least be around seventy degrees Celsius.

After Liang Yu instructed them on some things to pay attention to, he returned to the RV alone and went back to the driver’s cabin.

Finding a comfortable position to lie on the driver’s seat, Liang Yu immediately mobilized twenty-four Satellites to check the situation in various places.

Liang Yu first looked at the nearest Satellite Launch Base, only to find that it was already deserted, with most of the buildings collapsed, and the only remaining traces were the corpses of Underground Monster and Zerg.

It seemed they had also been attacked there; the Survivors might all be dead, or perhaps those who miraculously survived had left.

Then he switched the screen to several larger cities nearby.

The large cities in the picture were in ruins, countless tall buildings had collapsed, and the streets were full of abandoned vehicles and strange creature remains.

In one of the uncollapsed tall buildings, Liang Yu saw a group of gigantic spiders gnawing on the corpses of Underground Monster, a scene that was nauseating.

Their webs were also bundled with many insects, and the rain seemed to have no effect on these spiders.

Perhaps, these spiders had already adapted to the current temperature.

Liang Yu then looked at other cities; most urban areas were occupied by gigantic animals that appeared out of nowhere.

These giant beasts divided the cities into many areas, and they seemed unusually harmonious in their respective areas, without fighting each other.

There were many huge humanoid bones around them, and it seemed they also fed on Underground Monster.

And there were basically no Survivors left in the city; Liang Yu felt that they were either eaten by these giant animals, or the remaining Survivors had left the city.

Finally, the Satellite discovered a group of Survivors in a hidden valley dozens of kilometers away from the city.

Gale winds mixed with heavy rain enveloped this small camp.

The Survivors were busy and orderly collecting rainwater.

Some people ran happily in the rain, raising their dirty but smiling faces, letting raindrops hit their faces, and their laughter echoed in the wind and rain.

After storing a large amount of water, these people ran into the downpour, opened their arms to welcome the strong wind, and let the rainwater wash away the accumulated mud on their bodies.

They hadn’t washed for too long; the prolonged high temperatures made water exceptionally precious, not even enough for drinking, so who would waste it on washing? Many people recycled and self-produced.

Now that the heavens had bestowed sweet rain, how could they miss such an opportunity? The Survivors gathered together, unfamiliar with each other, and washed themselves.

The situations in various regions were similar; at such a time, the Survivors were still very unified. The rain was hot?

That’s fine; many people don’t like cold showers, and a water temperature of nearly fifty degrees is just right. As for the howling strong wind, that’s even more enjoyable.

Thus, many people reveled in the rain until it was almost dawn before reluctantly returning to their dwellings.

After dawn, the rain was as Liang Yu expected.

A faint light appeared on the horizon, but the heavy rain did not cease at all with the appearance of this dawn.

Large raindrops still fell densely, as if to drown everything in the world in this surging curtain of water.

Raindrops heavily beat the ground, splashing layers of water, converging into rapid streams, flowing into the cracks of the dry land.

A night of rainfall seemed not to have nourished the earth; instead, it continued to absorb water frantically.

The raging strong wind had stopped at some point, leaving only the heavy rain to roar alone.

After the sun rose, sunlight penetrated the clouds and shone upon the earth; golden rays, like sharp swords, split the thick cloud curtain, falling upon the earth along with the heavy rain.

Liang Yu got up early; he was still very concerned about the mutated weather.

Especially after discovering so many gigantic animals in the city yesterday, he didn’t even need to guess what was going on.

However, he also admired the company’s people; during the cold wave, they didn’t eat them as food, but instead let these experimental animals escape, making it hard for him not to think it was intentional.

At this moment, Liang Yu looked at those animals from yesterday again; they had basically found places to hide.

He felt relieved seeing that these animals couldn’t ignore the high temperatures.

But for him, animals didn’t seem to have much combat power; there was nothing that a spirit ball couldn’t solve, and if there was, it must be that the number of spirit ball was not enough.

Mario had already come outside, letting the sunlight and rain fall on him.

However, this method could not effectively measure the temperature of the rainwater; it seemed Liang Yu had thought things too simply.

Indeed, professional tasks should be left to professionals. He managed to collect the data and directly gave the authority to the system, letting it arrange the processing.

In contrast, he was more interested in another matter now.

Not long ago, the official contact he made actually responded and even entered his Satellite to give a reply.

Perhaps it happened in the early hours of this morning; he saw the notification message after waking up in the morning.

Liang Yu’s gaze had already turned to the screen in the void.

Before even opening the message, his mind involuntarily began to guess the content of the official reply.

Perhaps it was a greeting to him, or perhaps it was confusion as to why he could control the Satellite. All kinds of possibilities flashed through his mind, his finger hovering above the screen, with a hint of anticipation.

Finally, he gently tapped open the message.

However, the content that came into view made him freeze in place. It was not any of the replies he had anticipated, but a distress signal. The words conveyed urgency and helplessness, every character seemingly carrying a breath of despair.

Liang Yu’s brows instantly furrowed, and the anticipation he had just harbored was immediately filled with worry.

He adjusted his posture, his eyes fixed on the screen, his brain working rapidly.

Who was this distress signal from?

How did they contact him?

At such a time, if the other party had electricity, it meant their team was strong, but they actually used valuable electricity here, which Liang Yu hadn’t expected.

Since he didn’t know who the other party was, he ultimately left the latitude and longitude coordinates, which prevented Liang Yu from immediately wanting to rescue people.

To put it simply, if someone left a complaining message and then gave you a coordinate, would you dare to go directly?
