"The global volcanic ash layer has completely dissipated."
In a command room in Xincheng, Friday's voice suddenly sounded, waking up the technician on duty from his sleep.
"Repeat, the global volcanic ash layer has completely dissipated, please immediately notify the relevant personnel to be in place and prepare for the final rescue work."
The technician yawned and began to notify them one by one. He was not surprised by the news at all. In fact, more than 90% of the previous global volcanic ash layer has dissipated.
In the remaining part of the area, the possibility of human survivors is very small. Because a year has passed since the birthday of the disaster, without the Ark and without the leadership of His Excellency the President, how could someone be able to persist for such a long time?
While the technician was thinking wildly, the relevant satellites had been mobilized on Friday, and the last area was photographed in real time, and then analyzed.
After the technician had notified the relevant personnel, Friday's voice sounded again.
"There are 11 survivor bases and 15 areas where survivors are suspected to be active. Please send a rescue team immediately."
"How is it possible?" The technician exclaimed. Just now he thought that there could be no survivors, but he was slapped in the face by Friday. If he didn't know that Friday was an artificial intelligence, he would definitely suspect that Friday was joking with him.
Of course, he ignored the question that Friday, even if it was a joke, would not choose him.
After being stunned for a while, the technician resolutely contacted the relevant person in charge again, and recounted the situation reported on Friday several times.
…
For Brian, today was really a good day. When he decided to take the team out to find food, there was a sunny day that had not been seen for a year.
"God is telling us, this time, we will be able to find enough food." Brian said loudly to more than five hundred survivors in the village square, or an open area: "And, With the sun, we can definitely get a good harvest this year, and from then on, we don't have to worry about food anymore."
Everyone cheered, and some shed tears or started hugging those who were about to leave.
After the end, although there are no monsters, the harsh living environment and the lack of various medical supplies make human life very fragile. Everyone knows that maybe this time they can bring back enough supplies for them to live for a period of time, but there is a great possibility that some people will leave them forever and leave this world.
A middle-aged man hugged his seven-year-old daughter tightly. He didn't know if he could come back alive, but he knew that no matter whether he could come back alive, his daughter would not last long.
Leukemia, a disease that was difficult to treat successfully before the disaster, how could it be cured after the disaster?
"Dad, I don't want Christmas presents, can you not leave me?"
Hearing his daughter's innocent words, the middle-aged man resisted the urge to cry, and said, "Don't worry, kid, Dad will definitely prepare a special Christmas gift for you."
Letting go of his hands, the middle-aged man said, "Listen to Auntie, Dad will be back soon."
Although the little girl couldn't understand what this parting meant, she couldn't help crying. She felt that her father would be the same as her mother, and would never come back after leaving.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting worse and worse, Brian yelled cruelly: "Get out!"
The cries became louder, but no one stopped the team from going out, because everyone knew that this team was pinning the hope of the survival of the entire base.
Brian turned and walked in the direction of the destination. Although they had a car, they had no gasoline. Moreover, there is no road that allows cars to pass between the two cities, so this road can only be walked.
Vaguely, Brian seemed to hear a strange voice, which existed deep in his memory.
"Did you... hear anything?"
The others froze for a moment, then fell silent, and someone said, "Apart from crying, what else can there be?"
"Looks like... a propeller?"
"You mean there's a helicopter? Are you kidding me?"
"Quiet!" After Brian yelled, he stood still and listened carefully.
The familiar voice seemed to be getting louder and louder, and everyone else heard that voice, and some people couldn't help but look around.
In fact, they only walked a few hundred meters away from the village, and the people in the village could still see them. After the team stopped, no one in the village knew what happened.
The little girl with leukemia cheered and said, "Dad is not leaving, I'm going to find Dad."
A woman next to her, who was in charge of taking care of the child, hugged the little girl, and then listened attentively. She also heard a strange sound.
"That is?"
"Helicopter?"
Finally, someone saw the two moving metal objects in the sky not far away, and exclaimed. And Brian and the others also howled, and then waved their hands at the three metal creations in the air.
In the transport plane, a pilot said: "The number of survivors is about 500 according to visual estimation. Please be ready to receive them."
When Brian and the others ran back to the village, the metal object that was just the size of a fist had already flown over their village.
"It's a helicopter, no, it's a transport helicopter, someone is here to save us!"
Amid the cheers, three transport helicopters landed on the open space next to the village. Seeing that the propellers began to decrease, Brian and others rushed up excitedly.
The hatch of the transport plane opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit and tie came down and said loudly: "I am Kells, the leader of the 7th search and rescue team of the new government. If you need enough food, there are 24 Housing with hourly hot water and perfect medical security, then please line up and board the plane, and I will take you to the new city!"
"The new government?" Brian's excitement calmed down a little, and he asked nervously, "Which country's new government?"
Kells laughed and said, "It's not the new government of any country, but the Earth Federation Government. Now, there is only one government on the entire Earth."
Brian turned his head to look at the others, and almost everyone he could see nodded at him with restrained excitement, because they were almost out of ammunition, and instead of facing the danger of going out to find food, As well as the uncertain harvest, it is better to follow this Kells.
At the very least, these two transport helicopters already represent a certain degree of strength.
"Can you give us some time to pack up our supplies?"
"Your supplies?" Kells glanced at the village in front of him, the shoddy houses, many of which were even refitted from cars, and the people in front of him were wearing dilapidated and patched clothes, and all of them were disheveled.
"Believe me, even if you pack it up and bring it to the new city, you will discard it yourself."
Under Kells' persuasion, Brian and others gave up everything in their village and boarded the helicopter directly.
Thirty minutes later, Brian and everyone around him grew mouthful, because they saw an unbelievably huge monster through the porthole.
"Is this... an aircraft carrier?"
"But why is it flying in the sky?"
Amidst their exclamation the helicopter landed on the deck of the huge monster, Brian and others looked at the guides in clean and neat uniforms, and at the worn clothes on themselves, He stepped off the helicopter with some embarrassment.
After getting off another helicopter, Kells said loudly: "Welcome everyone to Ark No. 4, and welcome everyone to return to human society."
"Ark?" Brian exclaimed, and asked, "Isn't the Ark a big ship that can dive? How could it fly to the sky?"
In the final moments of the disaster, the President of the United States announced all the news about the disaster to the world, so it is not surprising that Brian knew.
"Yes, it couldn't fly when the disaster happened." Kells explained, "But after the disaster, the Ministry of Science and Industry of our new government, under the guidance of Mr. Transformed."
Brian sighed: "This is incredible."
"Is this unbelievable?" Kells laughed and said, "When you get to the new city, how will you feel when you see the spaceship that is about to be built?" (.)
