Chapter 790: National Evolution (Natural Disasters Arc Compl

to the sea view house, it wasn't Bi Yao who awaited her, but two men. The moment they saw Lian Yi, a flicker of confusion crossed their eyes. The taller of the two then stepped forward and asked:"He...An earthquake turned all of humanity's previous efforts into nothing. The casualties caused by this earthquake are immeasurable. Fortunately, the earthquake occurred during the day, so not many people were crushed to death in their houses. Most of the fatalities resulted from falling into crevices or being struck and injured by collapsing debris while scrambling for safety.

Qi Mu City's head honcho has always been Captain Song, the top officer of the military and police. Looking at the devastated landscape, he felt a heavy feeling in his chest. It seemed like heaven was truly not giving humanity a chance to survive.

As the person in charge, he could only think about it in his heart, but he couldn't express it. Otherwise, those below him would be even more disheartened by his influence.

A week later, after confirming that there would be no more aftershocks, Captain Song waved his hand, and all survivors entered the second round of cleanup.

After the earthquake, the temperature also gradually decreased, especially the scorching daytime temperatures of fifty degrees Celsius disappeared. The temperature slowly returned to the level before the disaster. At noon, the highest temperature would not exceed thirty-two degrees Celsius. For survivors who had endured three months of extreme heat, this was already a blessing from heaven.

And after this earthquake, a crack not far from the temporary base surprisingly had rising water levels. Half a month later, it formed a reservoir, solving the survivors' drinking water problem.

The ripples also went to taste the water, and after tasting it, they felt that the water in the deep ditch was cold and sweet. It was obviously mountain snow water. It is estimated that the earthquake changed the course of underground rivers, so there is now a deep ditch water pool.

With water, at least there will be no more deaths from thirst. People can go three days without eating, but they can't go long without drinking water.

After a fortnight of recovering temperatures, another heavy downpour hit the area. The rain poured for an entire day and night, and many people ran out into the streets to revel in it, celebrating the end of the scorching heatwave.

But the next day, all those who had been in the rain came down with colds. However, the symptoms were mild and did not require much medication, and they recovered within a week.

After recovering, the survivors found that their bodies seemed stronger. They displayed increased strength, improved jumping ability, and enhanced senses. Their hearing was sharper, allowing them to perceive faint sounds, and their vision became clearer and farther reaching.

This period of time has been defined by later generations as a watershed moment for the evolution of all humanity. The survivors who endured torrential rains, extreme cold, extreme heat, meteorite impacts, and earthquakes were truly "the survivors are king."

After a global downpour, green plants seemed to sprout overnight and grew at an astonishing rate. In just ten days, they became lush and dense, threatening to overwhelm human living spaces.

It wasn't until a human was dragged into the roots of the vine that people realized plants had mutated, and were no longer the harmless creatures they once were.

Subsequently, more mutated animals were discovered. Mutated rats and mosquitoes were small-scale incidents. Now, even small sparrows have grown to the size of pigeons, pigeons to the size of hawks, and hawks are simply astonishing, as large as helicopters. During a low-altitude flight, one almost crashed into a three-story building, raising everyone's alarm further.

Mutated animals and plants suddenly emerged, competing with humans for survival space. As human physiques became stronger, a martial arts craze swept the nation. After all, if you weren't strong enough, you simply couldn't survive in this environment.

Over time, humanity has gradually adapted to the enhanced abilities, and scientific research has been struggling to keep up. The first thing that was researched out was the safety shield. When the shield is opened, it can guarantee that any mutated animals or plants cannot break through, ensuring that most survivors have a safe dwelling place.

But the energy source for the safety shields is the core of mutated animals and plants, so it's destined that both sides cannot coexist peacefully in the short term.

The ripples stayed in this environment for three years, until Yuan Chongming and Jiayao had basically stabilized their lives, had a home of their own, and could support themselves. Then she prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Ripple hugged Cyclone's head and reminded him again:

"Tornado, you're all grown up now. You need to learn how to take care of yourself. Don't always go looking for trouble with those mutated animals. You're very strong now. Stay by your owner's side and be good. When it's your time, I'll come get you."

Although the current whirlwind is small enough for ripples to hug, she doesn't dare go out and scare people because after undergoing a complete transformation, the whirlwind now resembles a black panther. Its sleek, smooth fur is like satin, attracting the covetous gaze of many. Luckily, only ripples can protect her precious baby; otherwise, who knows who would take advantage of the situation

"Meow" Master cat, where are you going Take the whirlwind with you.

"I can't take you with me for now. You still need to stay by Yu Lianyi's side and wait until your mission is completed. Then I will come get you."

Xuan Feng was left with a head full of question marks. Didn't Yu Lian Yi just belong to the cat owner It definitely wouldn't mistake its own master.

The ripples fed the whirlwind another hearty meal, and then closed its eyes to rest. In a dream, it completed the handover of the body with the original owner. When the next day came, Ripples had returned to the Temporal Management Bureau, while the original owner had merged with four years worth of memories from the body, taking back control of their own.

The moment she opened her eyes, Yu Lianyi was still a bit dazed. When she saw Feng walking towards her with cat-like steps, she was taken aback for a moment, then immediately broke into a smile and stroked Feng's head, saying:

"You're so beautiful, Cyclone."

Xuanfeng was a little lost. It felt like the person in front of it was its cat owner, but not quite. So it followed Yu Lianyi around all day, only confirming what its cat owner had said yesterday when it was time to rest at night.

For this, Feng was depressed for two days, which worried Yu Lianri greatly. She even called Yuan Chongming to see Feng.

And Yuan Chongming, who was shrewd and perceptive, seemed to have sensed something. He patted Feng's head and comforted him:

"Your owner loves you the most, don't worry her."

"Meow! I understand!"

Yuan Chongming also secretly observed this "Yu Lianyi" for a long time, discovering that besides his way of handling affairs, there wasn't much change in his skills or other aspects. If it weren't for someone like him who was particularly familiar with him, it would be impossible to notice.

When Tan Jia Yao faced Yu Lian Yi, he felt a little strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on what was off. Later, busy with learning ancient martial arts, he didn't dwell on it any further.

Thus, the original being began his second half of life. At this time, the ripple returning to the Time Management Bureau watched as the whirlwind had completely recovered, and also showed a smile. Destiny is sometimes very strange. From when she first asked for help from a whirlwind that was only the size of her palm, their fate was forged.

"Ripples, this time's mission reward, do you want to take the whirlwind"

Shíju's Danfeng eyes narrowed, and he asked with a smile.

"Well, the little guy is very smart. He should grow up to be a powerful companion in the cultivation world."

"Then I'll send him into your space."

I promised it that I would go pick it up myself.

Ripple smiled and said.

Just before the tornado stopped breathing, it saw a beautiful woman in a purple dress smiling at it and saying:

"Whirlwind, I'm coming for you!"g, Lian Yi naturally introduced them to each other."Eileen, this is Fan. He's my personal bodyguard. This trip to Europe went so smoothly thanks to their help. I paid a hefty sum to get them here, don...
