Chapter 79 Appearances of All Living Beings

Time passes slowly.

Gobi Desert.

Dou Qingfeng and the others watched the sun rise in the east and then set in the west.

A blink of an eye.

The whole day has passed.

It is now sunset, and evening has fallen.

"He still hasn't come out..."

Dou Qingfeng sighed, having given up on the idea of going down the well to find out what was going on.

In the not-so-large conference room of the base.

The place was now packed with people.

During the day.

The base received a notice from above, instructing everyone to assemble on time to watch tonight's news.

Dou Qingfeng was puzzled, but obeyed.

Large screen at the front of the conference room.

After the familiar opening theme song played.

However, the person appearing on the television screen was not the balcony host.

"Everyone——"

Yin Shanhai's expression was extremely serious.

It was a seriousness that Dou Qingfeng, along with 1.4 billion other people, had never seen before.

"It is now 9 p.m. on September 9, 2025."

"Only five hours remain before countless people around the world are transported to the wasteland."

Yin Shanhai's opening remarks were a bombshell.

The base's conference room fell into an instant, deathly silence!

Dou Qingfeng's eyes widened, thinking he was hallucinating!
But when he looked at the others, he discovered...

Everyone reacted the same way he did.

Apart from……

The two crew-cut youths responsible for protecting the embers seemed to have known this information long ago.

"now."

"This is a change unprecedented in thousands or tens of thousands of years for our Great Xia, and for the entire Blue Star!"

"An unfamiliar, higher-dimensional civilization has invaded Earth using methods that are beyond our human comprehension!"

"The Wasteland game is the vehicle for this invasion!"

"In five hours, nearly half of the world's population, as well as plants and animals, will be forcibly transported to a post-apocalyptic wasteland to struggle for survival!"

"..."

On the television screen.

Yin Shanhai spoke each word carefully.

The 1.4 billion people of Great Xia are listless and numb.

During the daytime, various regions suddenly began to implement control and martial law measures.

1.4 billion people were unaware of what was happening, and some even thought it was going to be a war.

result……

At this moment, Yin Shanhai told them in person.

It's not about fighting a war, it's about traveling to another world!

This isn't just any ordinary alternate world; it's a post-apocalyptic wasteland fraught with peril!
the other side.

Not only Great Xia, but also other countries across the ocean were stunned after receiving this message!
They knew about 'Oumuamua' and the Wasteland game, but they didn't know...

There is also time travel!

And there are only five hours left!

……

Yanjing.

Dongcheng District, a traditional courtyard house.

Yin Yao watched her grandfather's speech on TV and silently scooped up a mouthful of rice.

"Yao Yao."

"When you go over there, you must take good care of yourself, okay?"

Yin Yao's mother, a noblewoman dressed in a cheongsam, gave her repeated instructions.

"Yaoyao, remember this..."

"No matter what, we must cling to Ember's coattails."

"Dad believes in you. You will definitely be able to create a different future in the wasteland in this life."

Yin Yao's father, a middle-aged man with a square face, spoke while downing a deep glass of baijiu.

Neither he nor his wife chose to wear helmets.

The same applies to Yin Shanhai.

It wasn't that they were reluctant to give up their wealth and status in Great Xia, but rather that they understood that time travel was not the end; the catastrophe that Oumuamua was about to bring to Blue Star was the real calamity.

Yin Yao remains unaware of this catastrophe to this day.

Yin Shanhai will also not reveal this on the evening news.

after all……

Regarding the pollution from Oumuamua, everything is just speculation, and the specific extent and scale of the impact remain unknown.

"Dad, mom."

"If you are also chosen to travel through time, please, no matter what, you must come to Dawn City..."

Yin Yao pursed her lips, her eyes already moist without her noticing.

She is a reborn person, but at this moment, she is also a child who may never see her parents again.

Even if the parents time-traveled...

The hope of seeing each other again remains extremely slim.

Yin Yao knew better than anyone how vast and cruel the wasteland was.

She is not Yu Jin; she doesn't have as many methods or abilities.

All she could do was quietly stay by her father and mother's side on this last night...

……

Zhejiang Province. Old Cui sat at the dinner table with his family.

Compared to the hysterical shouting of the neighbor next door.

The Cui family's reaction was relatively calm.

Because Lao Cui had already told his parents everything when he came back yesterday.

Old Cui's parents naturally didn't believe it, but the very next day, which is today, Da Xia began to implement martial law...

Followed by.

On the evening news, Yin Shanhai even personally confirmed the fact that he had "time-traveled".

"Dad, mom."

"Uncle, auntie."

"Yan Yan and I toast you!"

"I may not have time to marry Yan Yan in this life, but I, Cui Xiangyu, will definitely do it in the next!"

Old Cui stood up, holding a glass of baijiu, and tilted his head back to gulp it down.

Standing beside him was his girlfriend, Zhao Yanyan, who was already crying her eyes out.

……

Yanjing, outer ring road.

Yufei locked himself in his study.

He repeatedly scribbled on his notebook, which was filled with 'evidence'.

to the end.

Tear--!
He remained silent and tore the manuscript paper to shreds.

behind him.

Yufei's mother burst into tears as she entered the room.

Yufei's father leaned against the door, smoking one cigarette after another.

The smoke made the man's eyes red.

He quit smoking 21 years ago.

……

Jiangsu Province.

Jiangcheng University.

Tang Yunxuan stared blankly at the helmet on the table.

Due to the lockdown measures implemented at Daxia today, all modes of transportation have been suspended, and most students at Jiangda University are currently stranded on campus.

Tang Yunxuan had been staring at the helmet for a whole day.

To wear or not to wear.

Tang Yunxuan was in great pain.

He didn't want to go to that perilous wasteland.

He'd rather let God roll the dice than have a 100% chance.

He just wanted to be a college student on Earth, helping Lao Yu with environmental protection in his spare time, and chatting with his female classmates about philosophy.

"People like me..."

"He's a hopeless case, utterly useless."

"I'm so sorry for the helmet Lao Yu gave me."

Tang Yunxuan slapped himself hard and looked away from the helmet.

He took out his phone and made a video call to his parents.

……

Jiangcheng.

Yu Wenbo sat in front of the computer.

On the computer screen, the results of the recently concluded League of Legends match are displayed.

Meanwhile, a live broadcast of Yin Shanhai's speech was forcibly displayed in the lower right corner of the computer screen.

"..."

Yu Wenbo remained silent for a long time.
