Chapter 678 Damn Heavy Rain

Guo Fei shook his body, stretched out his hand to support the console, looked at the big screen in front of him with wide eyes, and stammered, "No nuclear winter?"

"There is no nuclear winter." The lieutenant colonel said with certainty.

"Great." Guo Fei waved his hand excitedly and shouted loudly, causing Laura and Pippi in the corner to look over, and the little girl covered her ears angrily, "It's so noisy."

Guo Fei smiled at the two little guys, turned his head, looked at it carefully, frowned slowly, and pointed at the big screen, "Can these radiation clouds dissipate?"

Excluding the two poles, the entire earth is covered by a thick layer of gray clouds. Although it looks thick and thin, and some places can barely see a trace of blue ocean, it still gives people a lifeless feeling. If If those clouds don't dissipate quickly, that's no different than a nuclear winter.

The lieutenant colonel hesitated for a moment, then turned around and patted a bespectacled man who was busy collecting statistics, "How long will it take for these clouds to dissipate?"

The man with glasses flipped through the collected information in his hand, and pushed the frame of the glasses habitually. However, after the catastrophe, after evolution, his eyesight not only returned to normal, but also surpassed the eyesight of most people. Those air force pilots probably couldn't reach it. At his level, there are no lenses in the glasses, only empty frames.

"This is the satellite cloud image after the nuclear explosion." The man in glasses said while manipulating the big screen.

The small gray clouds slowly expanded and drifted towards the surroundings, gradually covering the earth except for the north and south poles.

Guo Fei said, "I know all of this, but I'm asking if it can be dissipated."

The man in glasses hastily accelerated the speed of the change of the cloud map until the time came to this moment, and then compared it with the one that just formed the radiation cloud, outlining the difference.

"These places have begun to thin out, but to completely dissipate it depends on the local weather, wind and heavy rain, all of which will affect it." The man with glasses said.

Guo Fei took a closer look, especially in Africa, where there was no nuclear explosion, and the thickness of the radiation cloud drifting past was the thinnest. After a period of wind blowing, it turned out to be a gray area, but now you can vaguely see some scenes below .

"You mean, after this heavy rain, the radiation cloud over New York will also dissipate?" Guo Fei asked.

The man with glasses said uncertainly, "I'm afraid it won't dissipate completely. We are too close to the nuclear explosion, and the radiation cloud is too thick. It can't be helped by just a rain, but after the rainy season, I think the radiation cloud will disappear from above our heads." of."

Guo Fei waved his hand excitedly, "Great, damn it, I don't have to worry about these radiations anymore."

"Yeah, I think those in the biology lab can relax a bit." The lieutenant colonel said with a smile.

"Sorry, I think you're too happy."

Seeing the two excited faces, the man with glasses hesitated for a moment, and poured a basin of cold water on their heads, "Although the radiation cloud will be blown away by the wind or washed away by the heavy rain, the radiation still exists. If there is no heavy rain but only wind, I think it will take a few months for the radiation value of the whole earth to average out, but there is heavy rain here, and I think that after a while, the radiation here will be much higher than other places.”

"What?" Guo Fei was startled, and turned to look at Laura.

"You're saying the rain has made things worse for us?" the lieutenant colonel asked.

The man with glasses nodded, "Yes, the radiation cloud has been washed down, and the radiation has followed. It is estimated that after this heavy rain, the radiation value here will at least increase several times."

"Damn it, is there a solution?" Guo Fei cursed angrily.

He also planned to clean up the vicinity of New York and replant food in the surrounding area. Now it seems that the land has been soaked by radiation rain, even if it is planted, it may not be edible.

The man with glasses shook his head and said, "I'm not a professional in this field. You need to ask the experts upstairs. I can only give you advice in the field I am familiar with. However, if you wash it with a lot of water, it should be able to reduce the radiation value." .”

Guo Fei thought for a while and said, "Maybe the city can be washed with water every day, but the vast fields outside, even if the river is drained, there is no way to wash it clean."

"How about we pump sea water to water it?" said the lieutenant colonel.

Guo Fei glanced at him, "Are you planning to dry the salt? Or are you planning to turn these places into saline-alkali land? Don't forget that it's sea water."

The man with glasses lowered his head and continued to be busy with his summary work. Guo Fei and the lieutenant colonel became silent from the initial excitement.

Before, I just wanted to prevent people from touching the rainwater, so as not to be polluted by high radiation, but now, thinking that the land outside is soaked in such high-concentration rainwater, people's mood dropped to the lowest in an instant.

"It seems that we need to move, Larry, if you have time, let's see where the radiation level is the lowest, and we will find a way to move there." Guo Fei said.

"Guo, we have tens of thousands of people." The lieutenant colonel reminded.

There are more than 2 people, with five seats in each car, and four to five thousand cars are needed. In addition to the large amount of materials recovered from the search, all of them can be moved away. I am afraid that tens of thousands of cars can do it.

Although the most indispensable thing in the city is cars, there are all kinds of brands and models, but if such a huge team drives out, it is afraid that zombies will be found after tens of kilometers, and the team will be extremely long, and the defense will become extremely difficult. If you encounter a large group of corpses, you may be scattered by monsters in an instant.

"No hurry, we still have a lot of food to consume."

Guo Fei waved his hand and said listlessly, "Find a good location first, let's take our time and clear the monsters on the road before talking about it, let's make a plan first."

"Hey, good New York, I can't stay after a rain." Guo Fei said.

The man with glasses raised his head and said, "Guo, if the city is washed with a lot of water, the radiation value will be greatly reduced. It is estimated that it is not too far away from other cities. People can stay here, but they cannot grow food around."

Guo Fei was taken aback, then suddenly laughed, "Damn it, we're on the brink, we don't have to grow food in New York, clean up the monsters nearby, any place is our granary, haha, that's fine, no need to make plans Well, when the rainy season is over, you find out the place with the lowest radiation value, and we enclose it, and it’s been half a year, and it’s time to prepare new food.”

The lieutenant colonel asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

"Why go?" Guo Fei said, "It's hard to clean up the monsters around, why do you have to go, okay, take your time, I'll take the two little guys back first."

Guo Fei felt much relieved, and walked to the side of the two little guys, "Let's go, let's go home for dinner."

"Wow! So beautiful."

Laura looked at Lightning fascinatedly, and ignored him. Pippi next to him turned to look at him, whined twice, and then, like Laura, stared blankly at Lightning outside the window.

"Is it so pretty?" Guo Fei squatted beside Laura, stretched out his hand and pinched the little girl's face, imitating them to look out of the window.

Outside the window, the tree-shaped lightning was no longer as terrifying as it was a few days ago. The surroundings were pitch black, and raindrops kept crackling on the window. Through the glass, one could feel a cold breath coming in, that is, two The little guy is powerful, so it's okay to just stay by and watch every day. If it's another survivor, it's estimated that the radiation value can't be understood at this time.

"Hey, what's over there?" Guo Fei asked suspiciously.

Someone in the building opposite opened the curtain of a window, stood inside the glass, and measured with an instrument in his hand.

The white light is particularly eye-catching in this dark world, and Guo Fei, who was looking for lightning outside, was instantly attracted by it.

Through the window over there, you can see that the floor in the room is covered with a thick layer of soil. From time to time, someone is walking around, recording data with a notebook.

"Larry, do you know what they do over there?" Guo Fei turned around and asked.

The lieutenant colonel was stunned, and walked to the window and opened a corner, but at this time the curtains over there had been lowered, and there was only darkness in front of him, and he couldn't see anything.

"I don't know. You have to ask Miya about this. I don't know anything about R&D and production." The lieutenant colonel said honestly.

"Forget it, I'll go over and have a look." Guo Fei thought for a while, stood up and held Laura's little hand, "Let's go, let's go over and watch the excitement."

Laura raised her face, "Is it prettier than Lightning?"

"You can play with mud, do you think it's fun?" Guo Fei said.

"What is playing with mud?" Laura asked suspiciously, blinking her eyes.

Holding his little hand, Guo Fei waved to the lieutenant colonel, took Laura and Pippi, and left the command and monitoring center while talking.

Going down to the lobby on the first floor, the sound of the rain outside became louder and louder, making people feel like someone was pouring water from the sky.

The few guards who were on duty also hid in the monitoring room, and the cold breath came to the face, and a layer of rainwater accumulated on the street, bubbling continuously into the entrance of the sewer.

The corridor between the buildings connects the two sides, but you can walk directly without a raincoat. The roof of the makeshift bedding was torn open by the strong wind. From time to time, accumulated water leaked from the gap and splashed on the ground. splash.

The two little guys ran excitedly under the leaky roof, avoiding the dripping rain, giggling and waving, urging Guo Fei to speed up.

"Come on, step on the soles of your shoes here before you go." Guo Fei dragged the two little guys to wipe off the rain on the soles of the shoes on the carpet in front of the lobby.

The rainwater all contained high concentrations of radiation, and there was nothing wrong with them, but they couldn't walk around with radiation because of this.

Remembering the floor just now, Guo Fei led Laura and Pippi to a gate, looked at the sign in front of him, was stunned, and stretched out his hand to push the door open.

"Agricultural experiment area."

"When did there become such a place here?" Guo Fei said in a low voice.

Ever since he became the hands-off shopkeeper and handed over all the administrative affairs to Miya, he didn't know the changes that happened here. Except for the ones he is interested in occasionally going back for a stroll, the rest, if there is no result, Guo Fei may not even know their existence after closing the door.

Open the door and enter, the inside is bright, just like the daytime before, the temperature is much higher than the outside, and there is a rush of hot air when you walk in.

Some people saw him greet him cautiously, while some people looked at him as if he didn't exist, and continued busy with their work.

All the rooms in front of it were demolished, and the entire floor became a huge space, with lamps hanging from the ceiling, providing light to the below.

The ground was elevated by tens of centimeters, and it was covered with thick soil. Guo Fei walked over and was surprised to find that green shoots emerged from the middle of the soil.

"This is, what are you doing?" Guo Fei grabbed a person passing by and asked.

"Guo, don't you know? God, didn't you sign this plan?"

The man shouted, then pointed to the land and said, "We are trying to grow food to see if radiation will affect the seeds."
