ogant and didn't utter a word, only nodding his head. The squad leader frowned at this.The truck sped towards the city center. After two hours, it met with the leading convoy. After exchanging message...The impact of the meteorite is over!

Her rippling body swayed and bobbed with the ground’s undulations, all while diligently shielding Homey in her embrace. He was the original owner's benefactor, someone she absolutely had to protect. Only after a slightly lighter announcement from the stone mill reached her ears did she let out a sigh of relief.

In less than three minutes, it felt like an eternity. Everyone's faces were etched with terror and despair, cries and screams filling the air.

Although the people around Ripple's weren't looking too good, luckily everyone was okay. The building they were in wasn't hit by the meteor, but the one next to it was completely destroyed and on fire.

"Is everyone alright"

Yuan Chongming immediately asked.

"It's okay!"

"It's okay!"

"I'm not dead!"

"Dodged a bullet!"

Everyone responded in kind, all rejoicing in their narrow escape.

Ripple gently touched Jia Yao's head and asked softly:

"How are you doing, Jia Yao"

"Sister, I'm fine! The tornado is fine too!"

The whirlwind only came out from Jia Yao's arms at this time. He was squeezed between the ripples and Jia Yao, meowed at Ripples once, and even cautiously stretched out his paw pad to touch Ripples' face, making sure his cat master was fine before crawling back between the two.

Liàn Yī smiled and, looking around at the chaotic scene, addressed everyone:

"I'll stay here to look after Jiayao, you guys go help rescue people. Come back every half hour, I'll make some hot soup here, and then we'll take turns going out. Everyone, don't catch a cold."

"Okay, go ahead!"

Everyone agreed, it was a natural disaster and we should help nature as much as we can.

Liu Zili and Xu Fenfang were elderly, and they were asked by Lianyi to return every hour, as the temperature at midnight reached -45 degrees Celsius. Even young people couldn't stand it, let alone them.

After the ripples went back, she took out her private goods and cooked a big pot of hot and spicy soup. When several people came back, she served each person a bowl.

After a bowl of hot soup went down their throats, they finally felt warm.

"Finally, I feel like I'm actually alive!"

Sun Weifeng sighed and said.

"I wonder if this meteorite impact was only here, or if everywhere else experienced it too."

Li Qian frowned and said.

"It's probably global, not just happening here."

Ripple knew the situation, so she stated directly.

"In this world, doesn't it really want us to live anymore!" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhao Jia also frowned, she felt that the extreme cold was already challenging the limits of human survival, but she didn't expect such a destructive impact.

"I don't know! I can only take it one step at a time."

Yuan Chongming said lightly.

"If the world were to end, I hope it would be instantaneous. This slow, agonizing pain is what makes despair even more unbearable."

Liu Zidi pulled his wife's hand and whispered.

The atmosphere was rather heavy, a sense of foreboding hung over everyone like a stone weighing down their hearts. They felt this was the end, that humanity's survival was at stake here.

"Don't be discouraged, guys. Think about it, we weren't lucky enough to avoid this time! We have to keep going, things won't always be like this."

Ripples can only give people encouragement. She knows the way forward, so she feels more relaxed, but these people don't know that, and they inevitably become pessimistic.

"Yeah, at least we're still alive."

After their bodies warmed up, everyone continued to help until dawn. They then went home to catch some sleep. Before bed, each person had a bowl of hot noodle soup, plus a bowl of preventative cold medicine concoction, which Ripple contributed.

Everyone went to sleep with their heads down, and the next day the temperature began to rise. Ripples took out her thermometer and measured it; it had risen by ten degrees overnight. She knew that an extreme heatwave was coming.

As expected, the temperature has been rising rapidly for a week, with a daily increase of ten degrees. As a result, the frozen ice surface is starting to melt, and people are no longer venturing onto it at random, choosing instead to stay indoors.

The Pioneer Squad was notified to stay home on standby, and over the course of a week, everyone slowly shed their heavy coats, replacing them with light clothing.

Jiāyào every day would look out the window, watching the ice turn back into water. He turned his head and asked Lián Yī:

"Sister, the ice has melted. Can we go out now"

"Can't go out for now, gotta wait!"

In the second week after the ice completely melted, the temperature rose rapidly, reaching as high as fifty degrees Celsius. The sun hung in the sky, unrestrainedly releasing its heat, making the survivors feel its passion. Unfortunately, the passion was too intense, and everyone felt a bit overwhelmed.

As the temperature soared to fifty degrees, the accumulated water evaporated at a visible rate. The evaporation of water vapor made the survivors feel stuffy and they dared not expose themselves. As the temperature climbed, the water level dropped rapidly. The garbage, animal remains, and corpses accumulated from previous floods and extreme cold weather slowly emerged.

When Lian Yi saw these things, her brows furrowed. Many people had drowned and frozen to death before, but now that the temperature was rising, these unburied corpses had become breeding grounds for bacteria. She even saw birds pecking at the rotting flesh.

"Doctor Liu, please prescribe some medications that boost the immune system. Have everyone drink a bowl every day. If you have mugwort, fumigate the house with it as well. I feel like something bad will happen if this continues."

Lien Yi especially went to Yuan Chongming's room and expressed her opinion.

"No problem, I'll have it ready in the next two days. I'll also prepare some Western medicine."

Liu Zi nodded.

"Lately, it's best to avoid getting injured. With this kind of weather and the bacteria carried in the steamy air, any injury is very likely to become infected."

Ripples are not an exaggeration.

"Ripple is right, and that's what I also want to remind everyone."

Xu Fenfang also chimed in.

"Lately, everyone has been conserving water, and when we have the chance, we go out to find water sources."

They hadn't even had time to go look for a water source before they received orders to go to a commercial and residential building to rescue trapped survivors.

"What trapped them With the water temperature dropping now, as long as they have food in their hands, they can hold on for a while. Once the water level drops again, they'll be able to get out."

Zhao Jia asked in confusion.

They were besieged by rats!

Sitting in the rubber dinghy, Situ Yi gritted his teeth and said.

If possible, he would also like to decline this rescue mission.

"Mice!"

"How many mice"

Sun Weifeng also curiously asked.

"It's not an ordinary rat, it's a mutated rat, each one is as big as a cat! You say it's unbelievable"

Sithu Yi explained helplessly.

"Yikes!" everyone gasped, sensing that this mission would be a tough one.

"Meow," the whirlwind suddenly exclaimed, indicating that it still had itself. It is the nemesis of mice.

"Or maybe our little Whirlwind still has some spirit in him. He's joining me on this mission this time."

Ripple touched Cyclone's fluffy head and said,

Now the whirlwind has grown larger again, because of the rising temperatures, this guy is shedding recently, and the new hair that grows back is short and soft, sticking to the skin, just like adjusting its physical condition to adapt to the current environment.discussions about Yan Jia going together. Although it was discussed in private, this had been agreed upon by the chieftain. Everyone just said a few words and then stopped mentioning it.Just as Doudou...
