Chapter 1891
The gale in the first acid rain of the twelfth year of natural disasters blew for 78 minutes before the wind speed slowly weakened.
132 minutes later, the wind speed dropped to around Level 10. Xia Qing, a high-level strength evolver, let her companions take shelter inside the house. She carried a backpack to increase her own weight, swiped open the same type of entrance door as the operating room, pushed the thick wooden board blocking the door to the side with effort to create a gap, then drilled out against the wind, and quickly put the thick wooden board back in its original place.
The snow-white Dai Gua little monkey stared at the leaves and mud spots blown in by the gale for a few seconds, then sighed silently, grabbed a rag, and rushed over.
32 cameras in the courtyard and other areas of the territory were blown crooked or damaged, making it impossible to check the situation in 15% of the territory through monitoring.
Xia Qing didn't know what had hit her shelf building, nor did she know if aggressive acid-evolved plants had grown in the unmonitored areas of Territory No. 3 over the past two hours. So, after hearing that the wind speed had dropped to Level 10, Xia Qing immediately went outside to check the disaster situation in the territory.
The cameras in the chicken coop and sheep shed were intact, so Xia Qing could confirm that the animals were not injured. She quickly glanced at the small shed where jujube trees, figs, and oranges were planted by the courtyard wall, confirmed that the saplings hadn't been drenched by the acid rain, and then stepped into the acid grass that had grown to calf height to check the shelf building where supplies were stored on the east side of the building.
The rainproof tarp of a greenhouse at the Ninth Center had been shredded by the wind, and a large piece of rainproof tarp wrapped around two steel pipes was blown into Territory No. 3, leaped over the iron mesh wall, and smashed into the shelf building, making the loud bang from an hour ago.
One steel pipe was inserted into a wooden board blocking a window on the second floor of the shelf building, and the other steel pipe was inserted into the wall. The wooden board was damaged, and a piece of the wall had also collapsed.
A large amount of acid rain poured into the room, flowing down along the wall.
Farm tools and green-light corn stalks were stored in this room. Farm tools could still be used after being soaked in acid rain and dried, but the stalks would be ruined if soaked. Yang Laoda would definitely be angry if it saw this scene, because these stalks were its food.
However, fortunately, it was the shelf building that was hit by the steel pipes. If the steel pipes had moved another fifteen meters west, the living room and east bedroom on the second floor of the small building where Xia Qing lived would have been finished, and the loss would have been even greater.
Before Xia Qing could go to replace the damaged windbreak board, the voice of Hu Zi came over the walkie-talkie, "Sister Qing, Guan Tong reported: The handsome giant wolf that wasn't wearing protective clothing just rushed into Mountain No. 49 and is rushing over at full speed."
It was still blowing a Level 10 wind, and orange-level acid rain was drizzling down, with the acid element concentration as high as 29‰. It was a very dangerous thing to be active outside without wearing protective clothing. The handsome giant wolf rushing over through the wind and rain must mean something big had happened to the wolf pack.
Xia Qing immediately pressed the walkie-talkie button, "Received, I'll leave the territory to you all. If the disaster situation in the territory is serious and support is needed, contact Yan Brother Yue; if you discover intruders, call me directly."
The evolved fighters with combat capability in Territory No. 7 and the Ninth Center couldn't be transferred away; Huo Zhun and Wang Man hadn't returned yet, a batch of evolved fighters from Territory No. 1 had been transferred away by Yang Jin, a spy had appeared on Xin Yu's side, and other territories didn't have the combat capability to send evolved fighters to support. Therefore, during the time Xia Qing left the territory, if someone invaded the Northern First District territories, only the evolved fighters from Territory No. 21 and the old regiment troops could be called upon.
Hu Zi responded, "Received, Sister Qing, take care."
Xia Qing stopped worrying about the shelf building and turned to walk back quickly. After returning to the house, she immediately called Yan Brother Yue, "Yan Brother Yue, I'll leave the Ninth Center to you, I'm going out for a trip. If Territory No. 3 is in an emergency, Hu Zi will contact you."
Yan Brother Yue responded calmly, "Received, take care."
After finishing the call with Yan Brother Yue, Xia Qing dialed the numbers of the Head Wolf and the Broken-Waist Wolf. After finding that no wolf answered, she sent a voice message to her idol, then picked up the weapon hanging on the wall, "I'm going to the wolf pack's territory in the north. You all stay in the house and wait for me to come back."
"Baa~"
The sound of the wind outside had lessened, and Yang Laoda wasn't as afraid, but it still didn't want Xia Qing to leave the territory.
Xia Qing was just about to comfort Yang Laoda a few words when she heard the sound of the handsome giant wolf leaping over the two-story building and landing in the courtyard, and the urgent howl it let out.
The handsome giant wolf really had rushed over at full speed. The situation on the wolf pack's side must be very critical!
"Lao Da, wait for me to come back!" Xia Qing immediately turned to open the door, rushed into the courtyard, took out the improved wolf saddle, put it on the wet handsome giant wolf, and flipped onto the wolf's back, "Brother Giant Wolf, let's go!"
The handsome giant wolf darted out of the desolate village like an arrow from a bow, leaped over fallen trees, passed through the greenhouses torn by the gale, rushed onto the buffer forest where trees were leaning in all directions, swiped open the north gate, and darted out of Territory No. 3.
Xia Qing lay on the handsome giant wolf's back, holding the binding strap tightly with one hand and holding her gun with the other, staring closely ahead.
Guan Tong, responsible for guarding the monitor of Mountain No. 49, saw this scene, and his heart was in his throat. What could have happened to the wolf pack that made the handsome giant wolf so anxious that it didn't even care about wearing protective clothing and ran over to find Xia Qing?
When the handsome giant wolf rushed at full speed to the second peak of Mountain No. 52, its speed obviously decreased. It wasn't a speed evolver, and after running over against the wind and carrying Xia Qing for so long, it couldn't hold on anymore.
Xia Qing suggested, "Brother Giant Wolf, stop, you carry my backpack, I'll run myself."
The handsome giant wolf refused to stop, howling longly while running, "Awoo——oooo————"
"Awoo————"
Soon, Xia Qing heard the response of the primary speed-evolved giant wolf, Hei Er Ge. She immediately took the binding strap out of her backpack, bundled the backpack onto the handsome giant wolf's back, and then took out the second wolf saddle.
A minute later, Hei Er Ge bypassed a big tree blown down by the gale that was blocking the animal path and appeared in front of Xia Qing and the handsome giant wolf. Xia Qing jumped directly from the handsome giant wolf's back onto Hei Er Ge's back, quickly secured the wolf saddle, "Let's go!"
Hei Er Ge turned around and carried Xia Qing at the fastest speed toward the core territory of the northern wolf pack—Mountain No. 55. The handsome giant wolf, carrying Xia Qing's bag, followed behind.
The wolf pack guarding this mountain area saw Xia Qing coming and raised their heads to let out howls.
Entering the vicinity of the second peak of Mountain No. 55, seeing the three wolf corpses on the ground and all kinds of big and small snakes crawling everywhere, Xia Qing's heart tightened—snake pack invasion!
"Awoo——oooo———"
Hearing the howl of the Queen, Xia Qing's tense nerves relaxed slightly.
"Hei Er Ge, go this way!" After confirming with her magnetic sense evolution ability that there was danger 25 meters ahead, Xia Qing immediately drew her knife and pointed toward the dense forest beside the animal path.
Hei Er Ge rushed into the dense forest. After Xia Qing swung her knife to cut the intertwined vines, it accelerated and continued to rush forward.
Three minutes later, Hei Er Ge carried Xia Qing around the mountain peak and entered the core territory of the northern wolf pack—below the second peak of Mountain No. 55.
Xia Qing saw at a glance the three giant pythons, one black and two flowered, standing high in the Python Pool, whose water surface had expanded by double, with fire-red acid snakes coiled around them, and the wolf pack killing snakes on the hillside around the pool.
Seeing Xia Qing raise her sniper rifle, the three giant pythons immediately fell into the water, splashing huge water sprays. Two fire-red acid snakes mixed in with more than a dozen other types of snakes, following the splashed water, pounced toward Xia Qing and Hei Er Ge.
The Head Wolf, wearing protective clothing, darted out like lightning, tore two acid snakes to shreds, landed in front of Xia Qing and Hei Er Ge, and let out an angry roar toward the lake surface.
Xia Qing jumped off the wolf's back and landed beside the Head Wolf, opened her iron umbrella to block the splashing water, raised her gun with one hand, and pointed it murderously toward the boiling pool water.
