The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 103 Strange Bird, Discussion

"The world is changing, and the path of human evolution has begun."

"Hot weapons may no longer be absolutely lethal weapons."

"In the future, perhaps the world will be ruled by people with mutant abilities, and the country may not take action against us."

Liang Yuan looked at the plane and said, "I really want to know why it took so long for the rescue to arrive... huh?"

Before he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed and his pupils couldn't help but shrink!

Zhao Kai and others were puzzled and couldn't help but look up at the plane. Even with their eyesight, they immediately noticed something was wrong.

"What...what is that?" someone exclaimed.

"Look, look in those clouds!"

"Then...what is that?"

"Hiss, what is this?"

……

Amidst the exclamations, a huge strange bird suddenly flapped its wings and flew out from the thick clouds.

Amidst lightning and thunder, the strange bird suddenly crashed into the plane.

Boom!

There was a deafening roar and a fireball appeared in the sky.

The plane exploded instantly, with flames roaring and rolling.

The giant bird monster suddenly let out a strange cry that echoed through the sky.

But he saw it grabbing half of the plane, flapping its wings and suddenly diving into the clouds.

The other half of the plane turned into a fireball, and with a whistling sound, it crashed into a residential building in the distance.

In an instant, there was wailing and flames in the apartment building.

The entire building collapsed with a loud bang!

Everyone stared with eyes wide open, watching the scene in horror.

For a moment, the originally excited people's smiles froze and they stood in a daze in the heavy rain.

Liang Yuan couldn't help but open his eyes wide and looked at the scene in disbelief.

"Then...what is that?"

He was shocked. The strange bird just now was so huge, but it was only slightly smaller than an airplane.

But its wingspan exceeds the size of an airplane.

Although that plane is not as large as a passenger plane, it is definitely a military transport aircraft.

Based on the speed of the plane's propellers, what kind of creature could directly tear the plane in half?

Even if you are Liang Yuan, you can't help but take a breath.

"What huge changes have taken place in this world?"

"How can an ordinary flying creature evolve so quickly?"

He was shocked and had so many questions, but no one could answer them.

Beside him, Zhao Kai, Ma Guocai and Cai Zhi were also standing there in a daze, staring with their mouths wide open at the building over there that was emitting thick smoke.

Not only them, but everyone on the rooftop of Midu Garden was stunned.

No one could believe what had just happened.

The hope of rescue was right before our eyes, yet it was shattered in an instant.

"No, no, it's impossible!"

"How could this happen? How could this happen?"

"Oh my God, what on earth are you going to do!"

"What is going on in this world? What is that monster?"

"Where are the fighter jets? Where are the country's fighter jets? Why don't they send fighter jets?"

……

A group of people collapsed, some cursed God, some cried loudly, and some beat their chests and stamped their feet.

A similar scene was happening on the rooftops of other buildings in the distance.

Liang Yuan was silent. He glanced at the thick clouds from afar and felt heavy in his heart.

"Let's go."

He turned around, called Zhao Kai and others, and walked towards his home.

Zhao Kai, Lao Ma and Cai Zhi finally came to their senses and hurriedly followed Liang Yuan.

The three of them had thousands of questions in their minds, but at this moment they didn't know how to start.

Each of them had a heavy look on their faces and went downstairs.

When Liang Yuan returned home, Yang Mei immediately came up to him and asked anxiously, "Brother, I just heard everyone shouting that help was coming. What's going on? Is there really help coming?"

Her face was full of anxiety and anticipation as she looked at Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan poured a glass of water and did not answer immediately. Instead, he suddenly asked, "Sister Mei, if rescue really came, would you go with them?"

Yang Mei subconsciously said: "Of course, the country will not harm us. They are here to save us. How dangerous would it be if we don't leave and stay here?"

Liang Yuan took a sip of water and asked again: "What if I don't leave?"

"Ah? This...why? Little brother, why don't you leave?" Yang Mei couldn't help but said anxiously.

Liang Yuan shook his head: "I am a murderer. Maybe the owners will report me and the country will come after me."

"How could it be? You clearly killed people for everyone. How could they do such a thing?" Yang Mei couldn't help but get angry on her pretty face.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be prepared for the worst. If I don't leave, will you go with the rescue team?"

"I……"

Yang Mei opened her mouth immediately. She paused for a moment, then her eyes became firm: "If you don't leave, I won't leave either!"

Liang Yuan looked at her in surprise: "Don't you want to live a peaceful life?"

Yang Mei shook her head, walked up to him, leaned on his chest, and said softly: "I have made a mistake once in my life, but I will never make a mistake this time. You are the one who truly treats me well."

"Even if the rescue team comes, they can take me to a safe place, but I am a woman, powerless, what can I do?"

"You are the only one who doesn't despise me and gave me food when I was almost starving to death."

"Although we are not married, in my heart, you are my man. I only trust you."

When she said this, she couldn't help but look up, her eyes full of affection, and said, "Little brother, I won't leave you, and you...you won't abandon me either, right?"

Liang Yuan was touched and couldn't help hugging her tightly: "Of course not."

He immediately explained: "Just now a military transport plane appeared in the sky, and everyone thought it was rescue."

Yang Mei was immediately surprised and asked, "Is there really help?"

Liang Yuan shook his head: "The plane crashed."

"Ah?" Yang Mei's joy froze visibly, and she looked at Liang Yuan in disbelief.

Liang Yuan said solemnly: "This world has undergone changes that we can hardly imagine. Mutated creatures are emerging one after another. Not only humans, but also the fish in the sea have mutated, and even the birds and beasts flying in the sky have mutated."

"Just now, a strange bird of unknown species, only slightly smaller than the transport plane, swooped down from the clouds and tore the plane apart."

Yang Mei turned pale and asked in a trembling voice, "How could...how could this happen? Don't they have weapons? Aren't there any weapons on the military planes? How can we not stop a strange bird?"

Liang Yuan shook his head: "I don't know. The strange bird was too fast and the driver had no time to react."

"Also, I feel a little strange. There are floods everywhere now. Where can such a huge bird build its nest?"

Liang Yuan frowned. The appearance of the strange bird gave him a new understanding of the world.

Such a large strange bird can fly through the clouds.

Where would its nest be?

On a building? Or on a mountain?

If all living things had evolved and mutated, would there be many of these land and aerial creatures gathered on the only remaining high mountains such as Taiyang Mountain and Meishan Mountain?
Wouldn't it be very dangerous there?
"Tuk tuk tuk..."

There was a knock on the door and Liang Yuan patted Yang Mei on the shoulder.

Yang Mei hurriedly stood up, tidied her messy hair, and said, "I'll go open the door."

When the door opened, Cai Zhi, Lao Ma, Zhao Kai, Ding Yan and others came.

Liang Yuan first glanced at Ding Yan and asked, "Are you awake? Are Zhang Peng and the others okay?"

He left in a hurry and only placed Ding Yan and others in Wang Ze's room, then hurried off to collect supplies.

Ding Yan looked a little scared and nodded, "I'm fine. Zhang Peng and the others are awake. Wang Ze and his gang are all dead. Zhang Peng and Wen Lili said it was you who did it?"

Liang Yuan nodded: "Yes, I killed him."

Ding Yan sighed, "What kind of mutant ability does Wang Ze have? It's really amazing. I didn't get close to him from beginning to end."

Liang Yuan: "He is a psychic mutant with the ability to create illusions. Your empowerment talent is to enhance burst, so you are at a disadvantage against him."

"Creating an illusion?" Ding Yan couldn't help but change color, and said, "No wonder I couldn't hit him no matter how hard I tried from the beginning to the end. Was it all an illusion?"

"It's really... a bit scary that there is such a mutant ability."

Liang Yuan nodded: "Humans are complex individuals, and the directions of their evolution are even more bizarre. The ability of mental mutations is indeed tricky and difficult to defend against."

Ding Yan also nodded and suddenly asked, "By the way, when I came here just now, Lao Ma and the others said that a rescue plane was coming?"

Liang Yuan looked at Lao Ma and the others: "Did you tell her everything?"

"Well, I just told her what happened upstairs." Lao Ma sighed.

Cai Zhi said: "Liang Yuan, what is that strange bird? How come the country's military transport planes didn't even have time to react before being torn to pieces by that strange bird?"

"It should be some kind of flying mutant creature, but I don't know what it originally was."

"Are there many of these creatures?" Ma Guocai couldn't help but ask.

Liang Yuan shook his head: "I don't know either, but one thing is certain, the country has not been able to send effective rescue so far, I'm afraid it has encountered some obstacles."

"There are more huge mutant creatures in the flood, and the mutant birds in the sky will block aircraft. At present, sea, land and air transportation seem to have been paralyzed. There is no way to travel."

"Also, long-distance communication methods such as network communications seem to be restricted. Otherwise, if there was radar detection, the military transport aircraft would not have no time to react at all."

"By the way, has the radio communication been restored?" Liang Yuan suddenly asked Yang Mei.

In addition to making grilled fish, Liang Yuan also gave Yang Mei the task of monitoring the radio station.

She spends a certain amount of time every day looking for a radio station.

When Yang Mei heard Liang Yuan's question, she said frustratedly, "No, there's only noise inside, not a single radio station."

Liang Yuan's face became more serious, and he said to everyone: "It seems that the radio has been seriously interfered with."

"In this case, the military may not be able to use many high-tech weapons, except for gunpowder weapons, especially map navigation and the like."

These words immediately made everyone feel even colder.

The navigation is useless. The city is so big, who can know the way?

Not to mention the military, even people who have lived in a city for decades would find it difficult to find a way out after being covered by a flood with only isolated buildings left.

Liang Yuan thought about it, took out his mobile phone and opened the compass.

However, I saw that the compass needle on the mobile phone was shaking violently and could not point to the south at all.

Liang Yuan couldn't help but look more serious: "The compass can't be used, which means the magnetic field is seriously disturbed."

Everyone became more worried and couldn't help asking questions.

Old Ma couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Isn't this just a flood? Why is there something wrong with the Earth's magnetic field?"

Cai Zhi couldn't help but ask: "Is it true that the country has no solution at all?"

Ding Yan was relatively calm and said, "Old Ma, this is not an ordinary flood. It is obvious that an unknown disaster has occurred, causing global changes."

"If you look at those mutant creatures outside, you will understand that this world is no longer the same."

"This is a new round of natural selection. The position of planetary hegemony may not belong to humans in the future."

Her words made everyone present feel even more solemn.

Cai Zhi couldn't help but ask, "Will mankind perish?"

Ding Yan said: "This possibility cannot be ruled out, unless humans can evolve the same gill structure as fish and be able to live underwater."

"Otherwise, judging from the current situation, it will become increasingly difficult for land creatures to survive under the flood."

Lao Ma couldn't help but said, "That's impossible. Although the water level here has risen a lot, our Linjiang City is an area with average altitude after all."

"Yunchuan, Snow Region, and Xijiang are all plateaus. It's impossible for them to be flooded, right?"

"If that place is flooded, how much water would it take? Is there so much water on the planet under our feet?"

Lao Ma is also an intellectual, and what he said is well-founded.

It’s no wonder that he didn’t believe it. Even Cai Zhi and Zhao Kai didn’t dare to believe it.

Ding Yan glanced at Lao Ma and asked, "If biological evolution has already occurred, what else is impossible?"

"Also, how do you know how much water there is on the planet? All this water comes from the sky. How do you know that this water is on this planet?"

"Couldn't it be brought from outer space? Couldn't it be surged up from the center of the earth?"

"How much do we know about this planet?"

"Now that it has changed in ways that are difficult for us to understand, we should not judge it with our previous perspectives and experience, otherwise we will suffer a great loss."

Ding Yan is worthy of being a teacher at Linjiang University. She has extraordinary insights and her words do make sense.

But for an elderly person like Lao Ma, it is really difficult to accept such a big change.

Liang Yuan tends to agree with Ding Yan's statement.

The world has changed dramatically, and past experience can no longer serve as a standard or basis for judging things.

In Linjiang City, seawater is flowing back, the water level is rising, and the flood is devastating.

Are there no other disasters in places with high altitudes?
Will the snow in the Tianshan Mountains melt?
Does the earth's crust move?
Won't places with higher altitudes become shorter?

History books also say that fossils of marine life were found on the plateau.

This indicates that there may have been an ocean there billions of years ago.

Everything is likely to change.

It is unknown whether this planet is changing at an accelerated rate today.

Liang Yuan didn't want to dwell on these things, as he had more important things to do right now.

"These issues are not for us to consider, everyone. We have more important things to do now."

Several people looked at Liang Yuan.

Liang Yuan said in a deep voice: "It's survival!"

"You saw that plane. There is little hope of external rescue."

"But if we stay in this building forever, we will eventually be forced to leave due to lack of supplies or other reasons."

"By that time, it won't be our choice."

"Right now the seawater has only reached the 12th floor. We still have time to prepare and we still have options."

"I plan to build a raft as soon as possible. Now I ask you, if the raft is successfully built, will you be willing to come with me?"

He looked at several people with burning eyes.

Everyone fell into deep thought.

Ding Yan was the first to speak: "I'll go with you!"

Without waiting for others to speak, she said directly: "If it is soaked in sea water for a long time, this building will collapse sooner or later."

"Even if the seawater doesn't soak them, the large number of mutant creatures in the flood outside will destroy these buildings sooner or later."

"The second is this torrential rain, which shows no sign of stopping. No one knows when it will stop. The floods will continue to wreak havoc, and the water level will continue to rise, which will force us to have fewer and fewer places to stay."

"By then, the living space for those who remain here will become less and less, and I'm afraid the conflicts will become more and more intense."

"If we stay here, we will just be boiling a frog in warm water. We will die sooner or later. We might as well leave here as soon as possible while the mutants are not that scary."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Kai also said, "Brother Liang, I will go with you too."

"There is nothing here worth staying for."

This reason alone is enough.

Cai Zhi and Lao Ma also looked up at Liang Yuan.

Cai Zhi sighed, "Liang Yuan, I'll go with you too."

Lao Ma said, "I'll join in too. I can't stay here any longer."

Liang Yuan laughed: "Don't you guys think about it again?"

"Ding Yan and Zhao Kai are all alone, but they are willing to leave everything behind and follow me. You all have families to support."

"What's there to think about? I saw the faces of those people on the rooftop just now."

Cai Zhi smiled bitterly: "Without you here, I'm afraid they will turn the tables right away."

Lao Ma also said with emotion: "The human heart is the most unpredictable. Our team is better off. If we stay here with them, I'm afraid that we will die before the flood comes."

They are obviously not stupid. Liu Changfa's behavior upstairs just now was not just his own behavior.

Among other owners, many have the same idea as him.

After all, most of the food resources are in Liang Yuan's hands.

It would be strange if those people were not jealous.

Liang Yuan laughed: "I am also very happy to hear what you said. We have been together since the beginning. Of course I am happy to be able to go together."

"With you here, I feel more confident to leave here."

At this time, Lao Ma asked, "Liang Yuan, where are you going? Yangshan or Meishan?"

Cai Zhi also said: "There is a big flood outside right now. If navigation is useless, it will be difficult for us to find the way."

Everyone looked at Liang Yuan again. These were the most realistic issues.
