The weather is warming up, but the temperature is still below zero, and the snow will not lt.
The thick snow gradually solidifies, becoming harder.
Western Alliance.
Old Zhuang finally pulled through, but what he didn’t expect was that upon waking up, he saw the snow stop.
Imdiately followed by the Zombie Tide, this Zombie Tide once again caused significant losses to the Western Alliance.
Many people were injured by the extre cold during this period.
After enduring for over a month, as the temperature gradually rose, they finally caught a breath. However, due to the previous Zombie Tide, many people in the base died. They didn’t count carefully, but certainly, a thousand deaths occurred.
The total number of people in the Western Alliance at this ti decreased rapidly. Li Yu’s earlier prediction was indeed verified. In the Doomsday, a large-scale base would gradually collapse unless it was absolutely strong!
This strength was not a one-dinsional concept. It referred not only to the strength in terms of military power but also the base’s protective power, food storage capacity, farming ability...
Not a single one could be lacking.
The Western Alliance’s population, originally in five figures, decreased drastically due to natural disasters, the Zombie Tide, the departure of several forces, and now the extre cold of the blizzard.
Leaving the population of the Western Alliance reduced to only a few thousand people.
Gan Xiong’s eyebrows have been tightly furrowed lately, facing too many problems now.
However, many problems are simply unsolvable for them right now.
Such as the electricity issue, without sufficient power, they cannot ensure heating, lighting, and other criteria.
It can be said that electricity is the foundation of the Western Alliance.
Of course, apart from food.
Solar panels are limited, although they can produce so power, efficiency isn’t particularly high in heavy snow, and the electricity output is also not high.
There is no spare effort to search for trouble with the Yishi eastern suburb distillery. In such cold weather, they also cannot get out of the base.
....
The second heavy snowfall destroyed many bases worldwide.
But with the temperature rise, it also brought new hope to humanity.
......
Ten days later.
The temperature finally rose to zero.
This is a critical point, the lting point of ice and snow.
Thick snow covered the whole land, creating a pure white world, with cold air still lingering.
However, with the gradual warming, the icy world began to change quietly.
.......
Sunlight filtering through the clouds poured down, casting warm rays on the snow, shining like tens of thousands of silver lights.
Under the sun’s influence, the snow began to lt, forming crystal-clear water droplets one by one. They fell like countless jewels, scattered on the white snow, sparkling brightly.
As the temperature rose, the snow lted rapidly, gathering into small streams, quietly flowing.
The streams ford small ditches where the snow lted, flowing along the low-lying lands with a weak gurgling sound. The water droplets stread down, as if singing the joy of the lting ice and snow.
The river currents ford small streams, continuing to flow towards wider river channels. Thick snow lted little by little, the river gradually swelling, with rippling waves bringing a breath of vitality. Ice blocks floated on the surface, spinning and colliding in the water, making a clear and crisp sound.
The snow on lakes also began to lt, with a thin layer of ice appearing on the lake surface. With the warmth of the sun, the ice layer rapidly dissolved, revealing the clarity of the lake water. Ice blocks on the lake surface kept breaking, emitting a pleasing cracking sound, water waves rippling like a splendid ink painting.
The entire lting process seed like a symphony of nature, with water droplets leaping and flowing, water sounds and sunlight intertwining.
Everything seed to announce the retreat of the cold.
In so rivers and lakes, those surfaces that were previously iced over now occasionally saw so zombies thawing, floating along with the current.
If there were no zombies, the world would still be very beautiful.
Unfortunately, this beautiful snow-lting scene was tainted by one zombie after another.
........
Big Camphor Tree Base.
The snow, several ters high, is reducing in height daily.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, trees are getting taller, and the ground lower.
This day, Li Yu called upon drainage engineer Xu Zhen, asking him to lead people to inspect and perfect the entire base’s drainage system.
In recent days, with the snow lting and turning into water, there has been so water accumulation in both the Inner and Outer City.
Especially on the hillside, where lting snow gathered into small streams, then converged into a relatively wide river, already completely exceeding the height of the ditch and overflowing.
Even Li Yu and the others wear water shoes to walk through the roads waddled with water.
The snow lted very quickly, and in just two days, half of it was gone, with the lting speed increasing with the temperature rise.
Xu Zhen, wearing water shoes, with a forehead full of sweat, arrived outside the greenhouse. At this ti, Li Yu was also helping here. In recent days, because of the rapidly lting snow, the ground was flooded everywhere.
Originally, outside the greenhouse, after clearing the snow with snowplows and nurous cooperative personnel every day, there wasn’t much snow two ters away from the greenhouse.
However, beyond two ters, there was snow as thick as five or six ters.
The rapid lting of such snow will soon spread over to the greenhouse.
But the greenhouse was built strong enough initially, with good enclosure, so it wasn’t imdiately subrged, with only two greenhouses having water seep in; the others were fine.
