Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 38 Heavy Rain
Lu Yuning also heard the conversation between the two people.

It did serve as a reminder to him that even though the shelter was built, moving up and down would still be a problem, and he couldn't keep crawling around like this.

It seems that I need to get a ladder or something.

In order for Zou Yunxin to better use his supernatural powers, Lu Yuning first cleared out the place where the window was to be built.

However, even so, his ability is still not very efficient, but it is better to have it than not. There is no rush anyway, so just let him keep heating it inside.

The most troublesome part of the overall construction work is actually the production of windows, because they cannot be sealed directly.

To make a sliding window, the friction cannot be too great, and the entire slide must be made of plastic and as smooth as possible.

Sealing and stability also need to be considered, so it is a relatively delicate job and took up Lu Yuning's most time.

"OK, it's done!" Lu Yuning clapped his hands and looked at the exquisite floor-to-ceiling window in front of him with satisfaction.

After a busy period, Lu Yuning finally completed the last task.

"Wow, it feels like a villa." Zhang Qian paced back and forth in the tree hole, looking around, touching the stone bricks on the wall from time to time, and finally gave her own evaluation.

"Yeah, it looks much brighter inside." Zhang Xinyue agreed.

The two girls started chattering and even started studying the home decoration design. They seemed quite satisfied with their new home.

Since the inside is paved with stone bricks, the reflectivity is greatly enhanced, so even though it is still cloudy outside, it still looks very bright.

Lu Yuning was also very satisfied.

The overall construction work of the shelter was finally completed in the afternoon.

Lu Yuning thought about it and since there was still some time, he decided to build the stairs as well.

The stairs can spiral up from the roots to the entrance of the tree hole, making it look like a winding mountain road.

It is actually quite simple to implement.

First, drill two holes in the trunk to use as slots.

Then use wooden materials to make a ladder with two pillars extending from one side.

The whole is like a socket, and each step of the ladder is a plug.

Lu Yuning was already very adept at manipulating wooden materials and finished the work in less than an hour.

A small winding mountain road leads directly from the bottom of the tree roots to the shelter, and everyone is quite satisfied.

But there is a problem with this.

Since people can walk directly onto it, the safety of the shelter is greatly reduced.

In fact, the main defense is against humans, so it is easy to approach the shelter. If there is a real enemy attack, this winding mountain road will be equivalent to asking for trouble.

However, it is too early to consider this now. We haven’t even seen many people there yet. We can make modifications later. At that time, we can make the ladder near the door liftable.

The construction of the first phase of the shelter was completely completed before dark.

This includes room partitions, doors, and beds and bunks in each bedroom.

Everyone was excited looking at the brand new living room in front of them.

Who would have thought that in this miniature apocalypse, you could still live in a two-bedroom flat with floor-to-ceiling windows!

Of course, it’s not that big in reality, but building from scratch is the hardest thing. We can expand it later.

"cheers!"

The five of them raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp. Of course, they were drinking plain water.

In order to celebrate the completion of the mansion, the five people decided to have some sense of ceremony. Of course, there was no wine, so they had to use water instead.

At this time, the sky outside was so gloomy that it seemed like water was about to drip out, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of earth.

Lightning flashed across the sky, lighting up the night sky. Then there was a rumble of thunder, which startled several people.

"How scary! It looks like it's going to rain heavily." Zhang Qian shrank back.

"It's okay. We have brought in everything we need. It's safe enough here." Lu Yuning looked at the walnuts and drinking water piled in the corner.

"Will the people in the pavilion be in trouble?" Zou Yunxin said.

"It should be okay. Their pavilion doesn't leak, right?" Wu Xiao thought for a moment.

"That's right. Although I hope they can get wet in the rain, Sister Xu Qi is still over there." Zou Yunxin scratched his head.

Lu Yuning heard their conversation, then looked at the swaying branches outside, seeming to be thinking about something.

"Not necessarily. I hope they are prepared." A trace of worry flashed in Lu Yuning's eyes.

He had similar ideas to Zou Yunxin. Others didn't care, but the Xu Qi sisters were nice to them, especially Xu Lele, who was still so young. The doomsday was particularly cruel to her.

Another burst of thunder sounded.

The rain began to fall sparsely, making a "pattering" sound on the ground.

Not long after, the rain gradually got heavier and heavier, like a downpour.

This is the first rain everyone has experienced in the apocalypse, and it’s an indescribable feeling.

The scenery outside the window is hazy, and the sound of rain makes the night seem even more silent.

The five people sat in front of the window, looking at the heavy rain outside quietly in the light of the silver snake, without saying a word.

There are lightning and thunder outside and heavy rain, but inside the house it is dry, warm and full of security. This contrast makes people feel relaxed, but of course their minds are easily dominated by emotions.

At this time, the people in the pavilion shelter were not so lucky.

Because the rain was so heavy and there was some wind, some rain actually got into the pavilion.

They had made some preparations, mainly because they were afraid of the wind, so the walls of the shelter were reinforced a little, and the empty bottles they lived in were surrounded by some small stones.

I just didn't expect the rain to be so heavy.

Although people can hide in mineral water bottles, their food is stored outside.

Xu Qi and Chen Hong had no choice but to call everyone out and quickly move the food. Those that could be put into bottles were moved into bottles, and those that could not be put in had to be moved to a place where they would not be exposed to rain.

You don’t have to worry about mosquitoes in such heavy rain, but getting wet is inevitable.

The people who were called out by Xu Qi and Chen Hong stood shivering in the cold wind. They could only see the situation clearly with the help of the bright flashes of lightning. Raindrops splashed on their bodies from time to time, and they couldn't stop shivering when the wind blew.

Although he didn't want to come out, he had to come out to help under the pressure from Ma Zhiqiang and Chen Hong.

Everyone worked for almost an hour before they finally processed all the stored food.

At this time, Ma Zhiqiang was directing everyone with an irritable look on his face. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and a drop of rain fell on him.

He was immediately knocked to the ground by raindrops. Although his life was not in danger, he was soaked all over and looked quite embarrassed.

He climbed up with difficulty and was about to move to a safer position when another gust of wind blew, blowing a series of raindrops in.

Including him, everyone was drenched.

"Fuck! Cough cough." Ma Zhiqiang cursed fiercely, but his saliva was snatched away again.

At this time, Lu Yuning and others in the tree hole shelter naturally had no idea about the situation in the pavilion. They had already fallen asleep in the sound of rain.

　I'm about to fall asleep while writing. I really like this kind of rainstorm scene, so I wrote a few more strokes, but I almost fell asleep while writing.

　　Thank you for today's monthly ticket recommendation. Every time I receive a ticket, I feel excited. Thank you very much for your support.
