My Doomsday Farming Truck

Chapter 70 - City F Base

After driving for half an hour at the highest speed possible, and confirming that they were far enough from that part of the forest Arther was a bit relaxed and also reduced the MCV speed.

After taking a few deep breaths he looked at the passenger seat where Mey was sitting with a nervous expression holding the specimens he had collected . This can be considered as the most thrilling ride she ever had, looking at her appearance Arhter had a smile on his face,

"Aunt Mey, you seem to enjoy the ride?",

"No! not at all. By the Arther what are those trees and why did you react in such a way earlier."

"Oh that, those trees are named as bone trees, they can be of any species. According to my knowledge, they are a type of mutation due to the apocalypse, this type of mutation can be found only in places where a huge amount of dead are buried underground. When this dead become undead they gain huge strength boost in the start to come out of the ground and search for food, but in few places, they might not be able to exit the underground due to certain circumstances such as mountains above them, stones, etc. when this happens they start losing the strength due to lack of energy and start infecting the surrounding area. When the root system of the trees in the surrounding absorbs this there happen the mutation.".

Hearing what Arther said Mey slowly understood the condition and the seriousness of the issue. "You mean an undead without strength gets absorbed by the tree and they turn into something like this?", as she spoke she looked at the things in her hands curiously.

"It's not as simple as you think, the basic requirement for this is that the undead should be trapped there for a long time after converting into undead, second for a tree to completely turn into a nine tree it requires a huge amount of undeads.", Arther patiently explained as he drove the MCV.

"If it is as you say then for such a big patch of forest to mutate how much undead must have required, and if there are undead then does this mean the apocalypse has kicked in already.", as Mey spoke out her doubts she got the answers herself after thinking about what Arther said, thinking that it has not been enough time since they left the graveyard now she understood what they might have escaped due to Arther's decision.

She hurriedly wrapped the cloth around the specimens carefully and then went inside the MCV, to notify everyone else about this. Arther watched her moves but didn't stop her from doing so since he has shared this information with her for this purpose. Knowing that the apocalypse has already stated he didn't dare to show any carelessness, he now had only one goal to hurriedly reach the warehouse in the forest and give an all-around upgrade to the MCV. Even now after system optimization, the MCV had many obvious faults which were aroused due to its structure. The biggest being its low ground clearance height and small tires which made it unsuitable for offroad driving. Arther already had a few ideas about this but he will require a large amount of material.

With the news spread in the MCV through Mey everyone's mood was tensed, when Jessy and Nanny tried to use their tabs to look for the news they found that there was no network. This showed that the human's rule over the planet had already fallen, now for a long period of time, they will have to survive like the rats on the roadside.

With this Arther drove the MCV.

**************************

In city F, the government built a bunker base.

In a room deep underground, the room was a conference room containing most of the higher-ups responsible for this base. The atmosphere in the room was completely silent as all the higher-up exchanges looked but were disappointed after not finding their desired look from anyone. They have shifted here the moment the main structure of the base was completed. The base was designed by the most talented architects and engineers of the country and was enough to face most of the disasters. But the disaster they were facing now was not something anyone in this world would have thought of.

The base had 7 underground levels, and 16 above the ground levels, the entire base was made of the highest grade materials and was surrounded by many military facilities.

Yesterday night without any warning a large population of unknown creatures attacked the base, being unprepared the outer military facilities were completely destroyed and now the building was also surrounded by an unknown amount of such things. After careful observation, they came to know that this creature was none other than the most famous skeleton in the games and novels. They were completely made of bones while few had some patches of dried flesh hanging.

In the meeting room, "So, does anyone have any solution for this?", the middle-aged man sitting at the main seat spoke. Hearing this everyone bowed their head showing that they had no solution.

"We have tried to contact the other bases nearby for help,....but they are facing the same problem as us. Just that the number of those things outside is very less compared to here.", another middle-aged man in charge of the IT department spoke.

"You mean we are not the only ones facing this attack, gentlemen what do you think about this issue?", the middle-aged man observed everyone after speaking.

"Could this be a way of any country attacking us?"

"No, according to the information we have received from the other bases, many bases of our country and other countries are also attacked. After observing and sorting the information our experts have come to the conclusion that....", the IT head was interrupted in between by the mayor in the main seat.

"A global disaster. Hahaha, what a silly joke is this, so for the last few days the disaster we were preparing for was this. We have lost the outside electricity, water, and the military help too. Other bases can't come here to help us. Does this mean for the last few days, we worked so hard to dig a luxurious grave for ourselves?", the mayor slowly lost his manners and logic as he thought about everything.

Hearing what the mayor said the atmosphere inside the room was also depressing. After few minutes everyone left the room sending few medical personnel and a guard to take care of the mayor and avoid the new from getting disclosed.
