Mobile Shelter

Based on Dong Hao's previous visit, Dong Qi already sensed that the imperial court had most likely discovered how the superpowers had appeared.

He thought that Dong Hao's report would expose him, but he never expected that Dong Hao would hide the matter.

Looking at Dong Qi's puzzled expression, Dong Hao sighed helplessly: "You know what I've been through these past few years. Many things the court announced were originally well-intentioned, but after being distorted layer by layer, they ended up in chaos by the time they reached the lower levels."

I suppose I had a selfish motive, because I wasn't sure what the consequences would be if I reported it, so I concealed your situation at the time.

I want to see what the result will be after reporting it. If things go well, I can just report it again. After all, this kind of situation has already happened once, so it's normal for it to happen a second time.

However, if you feel it's inappropriate, I can immediately report your awakening of superpowers after I get back today.

Don't worry about my opinion. Whether you report it or not won't affect me much; it's up to you.

Upon hearing Dong Hao say this, Dong Qi immediately replied, "Brother, you know me best. It would be best to keep this a secret. I really don't want anyone else to know that I've awakened superpowers."

Since you've said that, I won't hide it from you anymore. My awakened superpower is rather useless, so I can only choose to enhance one item. I chose to enhance my car.

After upgrading my old car, there wasn't much change, except that it became a little more durable.

"Although the awakened ability is a bit useless, it doesn't affect me much. After all, I'm not a troublesome person, and you know what my daily life is like."

After saying that, Dong Qi knocked on the car door, as if to prove it.

Dong Hao was somewhat familiar with Dong Qi's car. After all, most ordinary families buy sedans or SUVs, and only a very small number of people would buy this type of car like Dong Qi if they didn't have a work requirement.

Compared to sedans, the Iveco's main advantage is its ability to haul cargo. Because of this, Dong Hao sometimes borrows the vehicle, so he is quite familiar with the performance of Dong Qi's vehicle.

The deep echo of Dong Qi knocking on the car door already indicated that the car had changed significantly from before.

However, Dong Hao did not inquire about the specific changes in detail. After all, Dong Hao would occasionally read novels in his spare time and knew that the superpowers that each person awakened were unique personal secrets.

Unless the awakened one is willing to introduce it, it would be considered impolite for others to want to study it.

Before Dong Hao could speak, Dong Qi's expression suddenly became somewhat conflicted. After a brief silence, he finally spoke softly:

"Brother, as you know, I've been writing novels for several years and reading novels for several years as well."

The recent global catastrophe caused by the awakening of superpowers is a classic trope in novels, so whatever happens next, there are templates to follow in the stories.

Hearing Dong Qi say this, Dong Hao asked curiously, "Really? You can't just make things up. The imperial court hasn't even issued any response strategies yet, and there are already templates in novels?"

In response to Dong Hao's questioning, Dong Qi did not directly refute it, but instead explained: "As the old saying goes, we can learn from history to understand the rise and fall of dynasties."

If you look up the modern history of our local area, you can actually see many similarities to what has happened here in recent years.

Don't be skeptical; similar situations occur in most major events, and you'll understand once you see them.

If history can repeat itself so often, then the same is true for novels. And I'm not exaggerating; many writers have incredibly vivid imaginations.

Even for the same event, different writers can offer different interpretations and lead to different subsequent developments.

The idea of ​​ordinary people awakening superpowers during natural disasters is an important and popular genre in novels.

There are hundreds of thousands of similar books in this category. Although there is a lot of overlap, the sheer number of books has led to many different branches.

I won't go into the rest, but just consider the current situation. We're facing two different paths: one is that the court can maintain stability, and the other is something you can probably guess without me saying it.

But none of that really matters. According to the pattern in the novel, under normal circumstances, there shouldn't be any problems in the next week.

However, as time goes by, whether the awakened ones cause trouble or natural disasters still occur, there will definitely be a lot of chaos in the future.

We don't need to worry about other things, nor can we control them anyway. While the money is still useful, let's stock up on more food, medicine, and weapons.

Otherwise, if it gets too late, the money will really become worthless.

Oh! No, that's not right. Now it's all about QR code payments. If things get chaotic, money won't even be usable as paper.

Upon hearing Dong Qi's words, Dong Hao, his face full of skepticism, immediately retorted, "How could that be? Don't talk nonsense."

Faced with Dong Hao's questioning, Dong Qi could only give a few examples of different disasters: "I won't go into detail about the snow disaster that just ended and the frequent earthquakes. You know in your heart whether money is useful during such natural disasters."

Now I'll tell you about some disasters that don't happen in reality but frequently appear in novels. You can judge for yourself whether your money would still be of any use if those situations actually occurred.

First, there's the most common zombie virus. Although it's said that zombies don't show the same dominance as those in horror movies when faced with firearms.

However, you need to understand one thing: in the early stages of a zombie apocalypse, the spread of the zombie virus is difficult to detect. The virus will only be discovered after the person has become a zombie.

It's important to understand that the main route of transmission for the zombie virus is not through infection by zombies, but rather through air or water, allowing different people to become infected without their knowledge.

Everyone knows that zombies can't withstand firearms, but that's on the condition that you don't get infected by the zombie virus.

Even the strongest army can be wiped out if it is unknowingly infected with a virus.

The second type is EMP, a disaster that was only discovered in modern times.

Such disasters actually occurred in ancient times, but they did not cause any harm to the human body, so they were not recorded.

The phenomenon manifested by this disaster is the direct destruction of all unprotected electrical appliances, whether household or military, which can be destroyed in an instant.

Such a disaster might not even have been discovered by humans in ancient times, but if it were to occur in modern times, its destructive power would be no less than any known disaster.

In today's society, what industry still has purely mechanical equipment? Once a disaster strikes, it can directly paralyze the entire industry.

There are many similar disaster novels. In these kinds of disasters, do you think money is even useful?
