Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 131 Story
"This is a conspiracy! Traitors have shamelessly sold out our country, selling our freedom, our destiny, and our wealth to those yellow people!"

"Guys, let's unite and fight back! If we don't unite, they'll take over our land and our homes!"

On a bustling street, a man with his own speaker was shouting loudly at the crowd, giving his street speech.

He has given this kind of speech many times recently, and each time he gathers a large number of fans.

Today was no different; although the number of people gathered at the front was still large, it seemed to be less than a third of what it used to be.

And... there wasn't much cheering.

People didn't show much emotion on their faces; they just quietly looked at themselves.

Occasionally, cheers would erupt from the crowd, but they would quickly disappear as no one echoed them.

"Guys, are you still so stubborn?!"

A young man with freckles on his face, who looked like a student, simply shook his head in boredom at the passionate roar and walked away.

Gradually, more and more people left, while fewer and fewer people gathered here from the streets.

A light rain began to fall, and the once bustling streets quickly became deserted.

The speaker eventually picked up the speaker and disappeared with a gloomy expression.

He knew that with the World Government declassifying doomsday intelligence, his propaganda would only circulate within a small circle and was unlikely to gain as many listeners as before.

……

Hibernation base.

Jiang Yang was casually browsing the internet when he suddenly came across a message.

"The movie 'Heroes of the Apocalypse' is in pre-production and is expected to be released within a year? The script is adapted from true events and presents a comprehensive view of the apocalyptic events, with many previously confidential details being revealed for the first time?"

After a moment's hesitation, he picked up his phone and dialed the contact person for the World Government's hibernation team.

"Once the script for the doomsday hero is finalized, you need to show it to me first."

"Yes."

"Adaptation is not random rewriting, and fictionalization is not nonsense."

If you dare to fabricate stories, I won't let you off the hook.

He muttered something, and Zhou Yu walked over from the side.

"Let's not stay here, let's go shopping."

"shop?"

Jiang Yang instinctively refused: "Forget it, I'm not interested. I'd rather play a couple of games."

"No, you have to go. Not only us, but Professor Lu, Professor Chen, and even Director Sun have to go. It's a mission."

Jiang Yang was taken aback: "There are such missions?"

"Yes, it's like someone who's been in prison for ten years. After they get out, they don't recognize anything anymore. Ten years is just about 70 hibernations for us."

Every time we wake up, we have to set aside a day to go shopping. Even if we don't buy anything, just looking around will let us know about the changes in society and feel the atmosphere of society, so that we don't become disconnected from it.

This is also a way to strengthen our connection with society and avoid being isolated.

"It's a strict rule? Okay then. I was thinking of playing some games and getting a good night's sleep. I don't know why, but I always feel like I haven't had enough sleep since I woke up from hibernation... Okay, wait for me, I'll be right there."

After leaving the base with Zhou Yu, under the protection of at least several hundred people, both overt and covert, the two arrived at the city's most bustling commercial street.

Perhaps because of the ten-year buffer period, the apocalypse that had already passed did not have a significant impact on people.

The same applies to the establishment of a world government.

Life continues along its original trajectory. Apart from subtle shifts in people's attitudes, the world of ordinary people seems largely unchanged.

With the task allowance, Jiang Yang and Zhou Yu can now be considered wealthy, and they can spend money without any pressure.

“I remember there’s a noodle shop there, it’s an old-fashioned place, the noodles are really delicious, let’s go try it…” Jiang Yang pulled Zhou Yu to the place he remembered, and then paused for a moment.

The noodle shop sign I remember has disappeared sometime ago, replaced by a cold drink shop.

"I was here a while ago, but now... Hello, could you tell me which noodle shop you were at before?"

"A noodle shop? I don't know that."

"Um, how long has your shop been open?"

"Not long, a little over a month."

More than a month...

At this moment, Jiang Yang clearly felt the changes brought about by the passage of time.

These fleeting moments are but a fleeting instant to me; they pass in the blink of an eye.

But in the real world, a familiar old shop may have been completely transformed and no longer exists.

Just one hibernation, and the world has quietly undergone many changes. If it hibernates a few more times, who knows what the world will become?

Jiang Yang felt a sense of loss, and he suddenly felt that his connection with the world was weakening.

Zhou Yu looked at Jiang Yang and cheerfully took his hand: "Come on, let's try something else."

Jiang Yang roused himself and began to weave through the crowd with Zhou Yu.

As pedestrians brushed past me, I heard conversations and hawking, laughter and chatter, saw shops and saw the money I spent and the clothes and goods I received in return. The feeling of "weakened connection" gradually disappeared.

Jiang Yang felt his connection with the world gradually becoming closer again, and his interest and enthusiasm gradually rose.

At the end of the day, although my body was sore and tired, I felt a sense of peace and satisfaction I had never experienced before.

"Our country has capable people."

Jiang Yang sighed with admiration: "They even considered the fact that they would force us to go shopping for a day during each hibernation break."

"Haha, do you know who this capable person is?"

"Ok?"

"Far away yet right before my eyes, that's me."

"It's you?! Then I have to consider your intentions. You're clearly trying to force me to go shopping with you, aren't you?"

"You dare to abuse your power for personal gain? You must be severely punished today!"

"Afraid of you? Come on then if you dare!"

……

Before the appointed time arrived, a total of 100 hibernators gathered at the base once again.

A new round of hibernation begins, and then ends in an instant.

Upon waking up this time, Jiang Yang found six alternative scripts for "Heroes of the Apocalypse" already laid out before him.

"These are six scripts that the organizing committee has initially reviewed and deemed to have high value. Please take a look."

Jiang Yang picked up a script at random, read it for a while, and gradually became engrossed in it.

Although I was the one who experienced this event firsthand, and no one knew the details better than me, and these scripts were just artistic interpretations and not real, my mind was still drawn in by this arrangement.

Looking at the other scripts, you'll find that although they have different focuses, the stories are all equally excellent.

"It would be best to find a way to integrate them and take advantage of each other."

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."
