Building a Salvation Organization from Scratch

Chapter 294 Post-Order Era·First Year

light.

The light shone in from a vaguely opened portal.

A dozen unkempt faces.

First, I couldn't help but close my eyes because of the sudden bright light, which was unbearable.

Then they moved forward greedily.

Trying to absorb the light that shines into the darkness.

They are crazy.

Don't worry about anything in between movements.

All the etiquettes I learned as a human being were forgotten at this moment.

If not the space at the door is big enough.

There is a high probability that they will directly fight each other in order to feel the light as much as possible and compete for the small territory.

But fortunately.

The space at the door is large enough.

More than ten of them were sitting at the door.

Facing the light that grew stronger as the door opened, he looked restless.

They stayed in the dark for a long time.

Afraid that this light was nothing but false hope.

because.

They have had the illusion of light shining in too many times these days.

Since a long time ago.

They came here to avoid monsters and never got out again.

There was a problem with the power supply of the entire underground laboratory. Only the external opening device of the electric door was lucky enough to retain power.

There is no power supply in the laboratory due to the monster's unintentional damage to the wiring.

and so.

This is a dark time.

Coupled with the good sound insulation effect of the underground laboratory.

This place has truly become a dark room with no daylight.

Here they are.

Loss of perception of time.

I can only barely know that a long time has passed.

But exactly how long it took is unknown.

This is undoubtedly a kind of torture, a kind of torture that ordinary people cannot bear.

Even if more than ten of them are researchers in this laboratory and are familiar with the storage location of materials, their own mental will is still okay.

but……

But several people still chose to commit suicide.

Basically all of the remaining twelve people had some mental problems.

That feeling of never ending.

Make people sink.

If there were not many people trapped together, these twelve people might not be able to bear it anymore and would soon choose to commit suicide.

until now.

This sudden light.

It shines into everyone's heart.

After they confirmed with each other that they had seen the light brought about by the door gradually opening.

They all couldn't hold back their excitement and greed.

With the last trace of reason, they reluctantly crowded together at the door and waited silently.

Because they thought of the terrifying monsters that were raging everywhere before they entered this place.

So no one dared to speak out.

These days of torture have left everyone with no energy or mood to speak out.

But there was an unprecedented sense of anticipation.

Still driving everyone, silently waiting for their final fate.

No matter what the outcome is.

They are all mentally prepared.

While waiting like this, the thick door slowly opened to a large enough gap.

Let them see it clearly.

Outside the door, there were three obviously human beings standing there, looking at the interior of the laboratory with the lights in their hands.

An indescribable emotion.

This moment fills everyone's heart.

……

And at the same time.

The three people codenamed [Tianshi], [Geographical Advantage], and [Renhe] looked at each other, with a hint of helplessness silently flashing in their eyes.

The moment the door opens.

They smelled it.

It smelled like a jar of foot-washing water that had been preserved for 30 years, soaked in the gelatinous substance of a whole durian mixed with canned herring.

At the door wide open.

When they saw everything inside through the lights, the three people immediately understood the reason.

Such a long time of isolation.

Let too much stuff pile up here.

The survivors who hadn't showered for a long time were unkempt, and excrement and spoiled food were almost everywhere in the laboratory.

Everyone who can’t see clearly in the dark.

It is difficult to effectively manage and plan these wastes, and some people even have some of them on their bodies.

It’s not surprising that it smells so bad.

Fortunately, humans are a highly adaptable species. When these survivors stayed here, they were obviously used to or ignored the stench here.

After entering an abalone shop, you won't smell the smell for a long time.

This is the truth.

The few of them didn't say much, and they exchanged something the moment they looked at each other.

[Tianshi] The captain takes the lead.

While avoiding all kinds of stinking garbage at his feet, he walked towards the interior of the laboratory where special radioactive materials were stored.

He is going to complete the core task of several people: collecting and taking away special radioactive materials.

These survivors are just incidental to the mission.

[Convenient location] Walk in and look around, looking for where the smell of rotting corpses comes from.

Just now in a bunch of smells.

All three of them smelled that special smell.

Being able to tell this smell is not just because they are the elite five-star members of the Eternal Sun.

Especially because of the smell of rotting corpses.

In fact it covered the entire world.

That is the eternal pain in the hearts of all survivors.

As for [humanity].

He stood there with a straight face, staring at the twelve survivors who were kneeling at the door and keeping quiet.

Although these guys didn't react to [the right time] and [the right place] passing by them, they still couldn't let down their guard.

Because [Renhe] knows clearly.

Many members of the post-disaster exploration team were actually survivors who died of some madness.

Others never know.

What did the survivors do when they were alone?

Maybe the quietness of these people.

It was more because the three of them had guns in plain view.

So [Human and] remain still.

Waiting for the return of the two teammates.

During this period, he swept the light over and around these people with an expressionless expression.

It was obvious that the twelve survivors were not in good condition.

They are very sensitive and eager to be directly illuminated by light. They are afraid and always eager to get closer.

Like a moth flying into a flame.

In addition to the garbage stained on their bodies, there were also some bruises on their bodies.

Apparently being in the dark is quite inconvenient.

When he looked at the locked door next to him, blocking these people from going out.

【人人】 noticed.

Surface in the interior direction of this portal.

There were some stains on blood and flesh, some slight white marks and scratches, and there were many broken pieces of glass and wood on the ground.

Obviously.

These people are trying to get out.

It’s not like I didn’t work crazy hard.

It's just that in the locked state, if they want to hit it hard, it's really a fantasy.

The results of various methods tried,

It's just that you can't feel any scratches or dents even if you touch it.

Despair forced them to stop.

Then wait to die.

[He] who saw these things from these details fell silent.

Looking at the twelve survivors who were sitting obediently but whose eyes were full of light, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

If you can survive here...

Maybe it's better to run around outside and end up getting eaten by monsters.

Stay in this dark, quiet place. These guys all felt an unprecedented torture.

Since birth, we have been receiving a steady stream of sensory stimulation—sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, which shape our emotions.

And these survivors stay here in isolation.

But it has directly lost a certain foundation for building the human spirit.

Suicide, self-mutilation...

It's all normal.

Thinking.

[He Ren] guessed where the corpse smell hidden in the stench here probably came from.

at the same time.

[Convenient location] I just finished checking around and returned to the door.

He looked at the twelve survivors who were kneeling obediently and silent.

Then he said to [Renhe]: "There are seven corpses in total, all of which were suicides."

There was certainty in his words.

He is very professional in his judgment in this regard.

From the direction and degree of stress on the wounds on the deceased, as well as whether there are signs of struggle and resistance in various places on their bodies.

Basically you can determine whether to commit suicide.

The source of corpse odor here.

Got ruled out at the moment.

The danger level of these guys in front of you can be slightly downgraded in your mind.

[Poetry] and [He] stood side by side, looking at the twelve people, their expressions no longer filled with so much vigilance.

But that doesn't mean total relaxation.

After all, even if these people didn't kill anyone.

There are no guarantees either.

Will these twelve survivors, who are obviously in a bad mental state, suddenly do something?

After all, no matter how strong they are.

Not sure either.

Will you and your companions be harmed by the sudden outburst of these survivors?

They were still slightly wary.

This is something important that must always be maintained and that they need to survive.

While watching the survivors together.

They are waiting for the captain's return.

Soon.

The sound of footsteps came from inside the laboratory.

The survivors also looked over subconsciously.

All I saw was darkness.

The captain [Tianshi], who was lighting up, walked out holding a heavy-looking box.

He walked over to his teammates.

He said with a hint of ease: "Just take this thing away. This is actually simpler than the task of dealing with the nuclear power plant assigned by other teams."

This task of dealing with all kinds of dangerous things.

The most dangerous ones are nuclear power plants that have exploded or leaked due to disasters.

That situation is more difficult to deal with.

To ensure that contamination does not spread and is addressed.

I heard that a member of a different race from the Yongju Second Generation led the team to solve it.

It is said that the Kun was not seriously injured in the disaster.

It is said that it has done a lot in dealing with the nuclear sewage incident in the island country and has a certain degree of reliable experience in this regard.

Just thinking about it.

[Heren]'s words brought Captain [Tianshi] back from his thoughts.

"Captain, what should these people do now?"

[He] pointed at the twelve survivors.

"Their overall condition is not bad, but their physical condition is just a little weak."

"The mental state is indeed not good, but we don't need to comfort him."

"I have notified the nearest survivor base to pick them up."

[Tianshi] stated his plan.

Their mission is simply to retrieve special radioactive materials for safekeeping.

These survivors are just bystanders.

Just inform these people about the nearby survivor base.

They are not near death.

They don't need to be taken care of too carefully.

Hear the words.

[He] nodded.

The nearest survivor base nearby.

It is a small survivor base in Liaohai City. Even considering the sparse traffic, it will not take more than two days to send a team here.

It's not like these guys are going to die right away.

There are also plenty of supplies here.

It won't be a big problem until then.

They still need to hand in the task, there is no need to stay here to send Buddha to the west.

The current processing situation is already very good.

At least these people were saved.

Better than the isolated survivors who might have suffered the same thing.

Thinking.

[Hehe] was preparing to leave following the captain and [Digli].

But I saw those survivors who had been silent for a long time.

He seemed to notice that the three of them had finally finished their business.

One of them quickly stepped forward and approached.

Although he stumbled and fell to the ground, he immediately got up using the ground.

Use a very soft voice.

He asked cautiously:

"May I ask...what year is it today?"

in words.

There is timidity and determination.

They are almost completely isolated from the outside world and cannot understand the slightest movement from the outside world.

The concept of time has been lost.

I have no time or energy to count the food I have already eaten, which is how much I have consumed in several days.

In the dark state, the biological clock of sleep and rest is also completely confused.

So, they didn't know how long they were trapped.

I desperately wanted to know this from the three people who came out of the blue.

So even if you know that you are waiting for someone to stay here, you can probably wait until rescue.

They couldn't help but try to ask.

I'm afraid a long, long time has passed.

[Hehe] stopped when he heard this.

Looking at these cautious survivors, I sighed helplessly.

"Now is the first year of the post-order era."

"For you, it should only be half a month at most."

There was some emotion in [Hehe]'s voice.

Then he left with heavy steps.

Only these isolated survivors were left, falling into deep contemplation.

Yes.

The post-Order era has officially arrived.

Everything is very different.

After these survivors integrate into the survivor base, they will face a new world of great changes.

At this moment, it is the first year of the post-order era.

As for whether it is January 15th or January 12th in the first year of the post-order era.

It remains to be seen whether future generations will include the three days when the disaster occurred when they compile history books.

Anyway, [Renhe] tends to count those three days, and this is true for Yongzhou and many survivors.

After all, that's where it all started.

That is the origin of all the suffering of this age.

Those three days of despair.

This has created a completely different new era that has never been seen before in human history.

In short.

The post-Order era has arrived.

This will be an era of striving for order and trying to restore the good old days.

Yongzhi will continue to lead mankind in this era.

All human beings will try their best to explore the future in this era.

Exploring...

The future that I don’t know where to go.

All mankind has boarded the sailing ship of the new era.

And this dilapidated and patched sailing ship will set sail towards an uncertain future.
