11:59 PM.
Ling Yi and Du Wenjuan were both standing on the balcony, neither of them asleep.
Looking at the dozen or so semi-transparent surveillance cameras in the air.
The group in the very center shows a scene of an old residential area and an ordinary house.
This was Du Fei and Du Wenjuan's original home.
"In my previous life, the Ice Age apocalypse came suddenly, as if someone had pressed a button, and then the Ice Age began."
Du Wenjuan said, looking at the countdown on the screen.
"After that, I collected a lot of information, trying to find the cause of the apocalypse."
"Unfortunately, at that time, I was too concerned about surviving in the apocalypse, and I almost completely cut off all communication with the outside world."
"The information we can gather is extremely limited."
Ling Yi didn't speak, but quietly watched the countdown.
As midnight passed.
The previously dim sky suddenly brightened.
It was like someone throwing a giant firework into the sky.
The light flashed and disappeared in an instant.
The world was plunged into darkness once again.
But then another screen popped up in mid-air.
The screen flashes with the latest outdoor monitoring data.
Meanwhile, the temperature reading is dropping rapidly.
From an initial temperature of 13 degrees Celsius, it rapidly dropped to 0 degrees Celsius, then to -20 degrees Celsius, and finally to -30 degrees Celsius.
It eventually came to a stop at -55 degrees Celsius.
At this temperature, it would be difficult for an ordinary person to survive outdoors without proper heating.
However, this wasn't the data Ling Yi wanted to see.
Instead, they looked at the abnormal data section marked with red cesium below the temperature data.
[Abnormal parameter: Air quality anomaly rate 1%!]
[Anomalous substance: Collecting and analyzing!]
[Source of the anomalous substance: Unknown!]
Ling Yi asked, "What does 'Zero, origin unknown' mean?"
"These anomalous substances seem to have appeared suddenly, and this is true throughout the entire Blue Star," the female voice of Zero Machine said calmly.
"The fact that these substances could trigger global Changes in such a short time means they must have been hidden in the air for a long time."
"However, it exists in a difficult-to-detect state, and will suddenly erupt when the time comes."
Ling Yi frowned. "Didn't it come from outer space?"
No abnormalities were detected.
Many of the Satellite and monitoring devices in space have been specially upgraded and Fusion by Ling Yi.
To this end, Ling Yi even stole several hundred finished and semi-finished Satellite from the Ma Family.
A super spy Satellite was specially synthesized.
With the addition of Quantum technology, this super spy Satellite is capable of monitoring the entire Solar System.
But Zero claimed that no anomalies were detected.
Therefore, there are only two possibilities.
One possibility is that the other party's level of civilization is extremely high.
It's so high that even if Ling Yi were to use cheats, he could still bypass Zero's detection.
Another possibility is the sudden increase in the amount of substance in the air.
Originating from within Blue Star.
Or rather, it comes from some organization or force within Blue Star.
No matter how you look at it, the signs of human intervention in this Ice apocalypse are far too obvious.
"Continue comprehensive monitoring, especially monitoring within Blue Star, to see if any force or organization knew of the existence of the Ice Doomsday in advance and made arrangements targeting us."
"Yes, boss!"
Du Wenjuan asked, " Uncle, do you suspect that this Ice apocalypse was man-made?"
Ling Yi pointed to the time. "The fact that it can be precise to the midnight hour is enough to explain the situation."
"But why?"
Ling Yi shrugged. "We'll know once we find them."
At that moment, all the surveillance footage showed a heavy snowfall.
The snow fell like a waterfall, resulting in extremely low visibility.
Only Yinyin could be seen that the lights in many homes in Dafeng City were turning on one after another.
In the middle of Xia Tian, the temperature suddenly dropped, and many people were woken up by the cold.
The lights in Du Fei's house also came on.
Ling Yi Void, and the next moment, a series of scenes switched.
The scene then switched to Du Fei's home.
At the same time, a sound rang out.
The first sound to ring out was that of the old lady Ren Hua.
"Oh dear, what's going on? Why is it suddenly so cold?"
Ren Hua, hunched over and wrapped in a quilt, shivered as she walked out of the room.
"Did you turn the air conditioning up too high?"
The old woman called out in a trembling, hoarse voice.
"Mom, stop shouting, it sounds like something happened!" Shen Yuemei, also wrapped in a blanket, stood by the window, her finger trembling as she pointed outside.
Ren Hua looked out the window.
He was immediately dumbfounded.
"Is it... snowing?"
"Snow in June, could it be that there's Dou E legendary figure known for her tragic love story)?"
Shen Yuemei rolled her eyes. This old lady is still thinking about Dou E at a time like this!
Is it normal for it to snow so heavily in June?
Not only is the snow abnormal, but the temperature is also very abnormal.
Dafeng City is a northern city.
Even in the coldest winter, the temperature wouldn't drop this low.
The temperature right now is so high it could freeze you to death instantly.
" Du Peng, have you found the air conditioner remote?" Shen Yuemei glanced at Ren Hua, who was staring in disbelief.
He shook his hand dismissively.
This old woman is good at causing trouble, but when it really matters, she's completely useless.
And then there's Du Fei's useless husband, who's never home when it matters most.
I instinctively cursed, "Useless!"
But the old lady overheard these words.
Thinking Shen Yuemei was insulting her, she immediately retorted angrily, " Shen Yuemei, how dare you call me a piece of trash?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and slapped Shen Yuemei across the face.
The slap came so suddenly that Shen Yuemei didn't even have time to react.
I got hit in the face.
However, the old lady didn't have much strength to begin with, and the cold weather made it even harder for her.
So the slap didn't cause any harm.
As the saying goes, the harm is not great, but the insult is extremely strong.
Shen Yuemei, who was about to explain something, immediately swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Although Shen Yuemei didn't have much experience...
But I've also watched quite a few short dramas, especially those set in the post-apocalyptic world.
Heavy snow in June, with a sudden drop in temperature—even a fool would know this is abnormal.
And this old woman is a good-for-nothing herself, so is it wrong to call her a good-for-nothing?
At home, besides being a tyrant, he's practically useless.
There wasn't much food stored at home.
If a heavy snowfall blocks their door and they are unable to go out, then this meager food supply will be their family's only hope for survival.
Just then, the obese Du Peng rushed out of the room.
"Mom, I found the remote."
Du Peng's voice broke the atmosphere between Shen Yuemei and Ren Hua.
After some fiddling around...
The air conditioner started working quickly.
In heating mode, hot air is blown out from the air conditioner vents.
This immediately relieved Shen Yuemei and the other two.
The temperature inside the house is also rising rapidly.
The temperature quickly returned to normal.
On the other side of Red Maple Mountain, Ling Yi waved his hand and turned off the home security camera.
The Ice apocalypse has just begun.
At -55 degrees Celsius, it's not enough to freeze a person to death.
In many northern cities of this Ancient Country, winter temperatures are even lower than this.
But then, the temperature will drop every day.
In Du Fei's memory, the temperature had dropped to minus 90 degrees Celsius before he died.
It's completely impossible for anyone to live outdoors.
People could only stay at home, doing everything they could to keep warm.
Food shortages began, and chaos and darkness ensued.
In less than a month, due to various reasons, the entire building was reduced from over a hundred people to less than twenty.
These twenty people were further divided into two groups.
They fight to the death every day for each other's food.
