"This world is simply terrible..."

Walking out of the house, breathing the morning air with a slight smell of cow dung, Tao Yu sighed again.

I thought that the social animals in the previous life were already miserable, but when I think about the people in this world, I really feel speechless and look up at the sky. How did I survive in the past?

Every day, I feed cows, clean cow dung, milk cows, repair cow hooves, and weed and do various farm work on the farm.

All my spare time is spent practicing various survival and combat skills for the day of awakening. Until now, I can't even recognize all the characters in this world. I am semi-illiterate.

The farm I worked hard to manage, the harvest has nothing to do with my family. All will be taken away by the company regularly, and some food for survival will be left as a "gift".

If it weren't for my parents' stable jobs, they would have 300 units of willpower every month to subsidize the family.

It would be difficult to support the family even if I, my third brother, my sister-in-law and my younger brother worked day and night.

Not to mention accumulating some equipment and supplies for the day of awakening.

In addition, parents have to find ways to continuously improve their own cannon fodder weight, and use various means to get them out of the company's cannon fodder conscription.

After turning 18, I will also be included in this sequence, and I will also have to find ways to continuously improve this weight, unless a "good thing" like the third brother happens...

Under the invisible threat of life, the degree of this involution has already broken through the sky.

Looking into the distance, a gray wall of gray fog blocks the entire periphery. The gray fog is extremely thick and keeps rolling. It seems that various black shadows can be seen flashing in the fog.

There is a layer of faint hazy green light blocking these gray fogs outside.

Looking back, you can see the towering mottled walls of the inner city.

The walls seem to be made up of various materials, with various metal and concrete structures. There are traces of filling and repair everywhere. Various gun towers and machine gun towers can also be seen on the walls.

Through the walls, you can vaguely see some towering buildings in the inner city, exaggerated neon signs flashing, and the top floors of the buildings that are also full of splicing.

It has some of the style and sense of technology of the 21st century architecture in my memory, and also has a contrast in the garbage dump.

Looking up again, you can see a giant city base floating in the sky. The blue light that blocks the gray fog seems to be descending from this floating city, protecting the earth below.

Under the base of the magnificent floating city, there are pipelines with oily surfaces connecting the inner city and the outer city, transporting various materials to the bigwigs in the city.

The floating city, the inner city, the outer city and the outer gray fog are clearly separated, representing several completely different living environments.

Looking back at his own home, the shabby farm hut mainly made of asbestos boards, metal plates and compressed plates, with a small amount of bricks, and the outer farm that does not belong to him but needs to be taken care of by himself, Tao Yu also felt a sense of depression.

On the roof, there is a rough machine gun turret with a little rust and smell of oil, which creaks and turns from time to time.

This autonomous machine gun turret is the most valuable and expensive thing in the house. It can distinguish gray fog monsters at a short distance and automatically attack. It is a kind of will-strengthening item, but not every household has it.

Although the outer city is also under the protection of the floating city's civilization fire, there are still some monsters attacking in the gray fog occasionally.

Tao Yu remembers that he can hear the roar of the autonomous machine gun turret seven or eight times every night.

This is the frequency of monsters that come to the farm after passing the outer night watchman and all other possible interception towers along the way.

Fortunately, only some small fish will leave the gray fog and enter the shelter of the civilization fire.

The will lamp defends against some invisible dirt, and the machine gun turret physically defends against some fish that slip through the net. This is one of the reasons why they can survive safely all these years.

Just when Tao Yu was a little dazed, there was a creaking sound in the house again. A thin man with wrinkles on his face and gray hair, and a woman with an ordinary face and short hair also came out of the room one after another.

They are Tao Yu's parents in this life.

His parents sheltered him from such a bad environment until he was 18 years old.

Although he had some trance of memory fusion due to the dream of his previous life, he still smiled when he saw the two elders

"Dad, Mom, didn't you come back at noon?"

Tao Long saw his son, and the wrinkles on his face squeezed out a kind smile

"Why did the seventh child get up? Although the survival rate on the awakening day has increased, we must still conserve our energy and go all out."

The eldest and the second child both died on the awakening day, which made Tao Long and his wife have some PTSD for this day with a 60% survival rate.

So the following children are well prepared. They would rather live a simple life on weekdays, but they must accumulate enough things for the children to use on the awakening day.

At least since the second child had an accident, there has been no such tragedy on the awakening day.

"I can't sleep."

Tao Yu responded directly. Sometimes the more you force yourself to sleep, the more you can't sleep. There is no way to do this.

"Then you come with us."

After hearing this, Father Tao no longer insisted, but made arrangements casually.

"We found your Uncle Hu at the base before. He is now an instructor. He can take charge of your group with just a greeting. Let's go visit him together."

The company has its own gathering place in the Abyss Rift, where many production and combat occupations are located.

Although Tao Yu's parents had just returned from their room, in fact they had just returned from another world, a world where time was completely synchronized with this one.

In addition to the mandatory half-month survival adaptation period on the day of awakening, everyone who has passed the day of awakening can travel back and forth between the two places after meditating for about a quarter of an hour.

At that time, in addition to the need to go to the Abyss Rift regularly to avoid going crazy, the minimum return interval will also be reduced to five days.

If we can reach the gathering place, apart from the cannon fodder tasks assigned by the company, the pressure of survival will actually be reduced.

"Uncle Tiger has become an instructor? I remember that his hand seemed to be broken and he quit the battle sequence, right?"

Tao Yu was a little surprised. Although Tao Hu and Tao Long sounded like two brothers, they were just cousins. Under the pressure of such a miserable life in the outer city, names were usually very random, and duplicate names were also common.

"He was lucky enough to meet a noble person, completed the mechanization transformation, and his strength increased instead of decreasing."

There was a trace of envy in Tao Long's eyes. His third child was also very talented, but unfortunately he didn't have such a life, otherwise it would be no harm to work for a noble person.

"Okay, let's go there, he should have just returned."

Hong Xia took out a large piece of bacon from the kitchen, cleaned a few dark areas with a brush, and then walked out.

Looking at the piece of bacon, Tao Yu, who was so skinny, also swallowed his saliva. What a sin, there are really people in this world who can't afford meat.

Recalling the delicacies of the previous life, even though the family conditions in the previous life were average, as an only child, at least he had complete freedom of meat. As a result, in this world, he had to improve his food before he could eat meat.

This is even considered a decent living condition in the outer city!

Tao Yu didn't have any objections to visiting rich relatives, and he didn't have the inexplicable arrogance of a time traveler. After living in this world for eighteen years, any anger had to be smoothed away.

My parents are veterans who have lived in this kind of world for decades, so at least now it’s not wrong to listen to their advice.

Moreover, Tao Yu also has a good impression of Uncle Tao Hu. He has the talent of [Prejudgment Eye] (C) and has a strong ability to predict.

This ability is much stronger than [Dynamic Vision] of the same level. The strength value of C-level is comparable to that of B-level [Dynamic Vision].

He used to be the best among his relatives, but he quit fighting due to injury. He has also moved around a bit in recent years, so the relationship is pretty good.

Before the other party was injured, he had taught his third brother, and after he was injured, he had also helped his family, so they both helped each other.

This relationship is closer than that of several other direct uncles and aunts.

Tao Yu's own shooting practice was all done through his relationship, which saved a lot of bullet consumption.

For Tao Yu, who lived in a peaceful time in her previous life, the survival rate for this day of awakening was only 60%, so naturally the more prepared she was, the better!

The survival rate of 60% does not mean that everyone has a 60% chance of surviving, but that it will be averaged out by those who are well prepared and have a high survival rate. Tao Yu does not want to be among the average numbers...

"Haha, Brother Long, look why you are so polite. Ayu is so thin. He needs to eat more meat to replenish his strength."

Uncle Hu was a dark-skinned, stocky and lean man. When Tao Yu saw him again, his original broken arm had been replaced by a punk-style robotic arm, which even damaged half of his left shoulder. Completely mechanized.

However, although the mechanical arm was filled with the smell of engine oil and was shiny with oil, some traces of wear could still be seen. Judging from the time of replacement, it should be considered second-hand or above, but the body shape was more suitable for Tao Hu.

Putting away the bacon, Uncle Hu pinched Tao Yu's shoulder with his mechanical arm full of the smell of engine oil, and then said

"Some people wake up every day. It's not a big problem if I say hello and transfer to today."

Having said this, Uncle Hu paused for a moment, and then continued:

"But I heard that the children of two big figures are also attending today, so I still have to say something in advance..."
