Chapter 18

This was the eighteenth day after the arrival of the Second Calamity Era.

Another week had passed since Li Tianran and Qin Yiming conducted their armed experiment.

During this week, Li Tianran began frantically farming, harvesting, and accumulating points.

At the same time, he remodeled the small building he lived in, turning the original first floor into a huge living room, large enough to accommodate at least a hundred people for dining. He also expanded the door of the living room, and Xiao Hei slept in the living room at night, like a guardian door god.

After a week of hard work, Li Tianran's armed forces were also fully upgraded.

"Available mobile armed forces: 130 adult-level Combat Berserkers! 1 Tank-level! 1 Hound-level! 40 Hummingbird-level! 12 self-detonating Arachnid Robots!"

"Available non-mobile armed forces: 3 heavy machine gun turrets! 1 laser tower! 1 howitzer! 1 heavy machine gun cluster! 1 anti-aircraft gun!"

"Auxiliary equipment: Detection Tower x1! Jamming Radar x1!"

"Note: Your shelter has the strength to withstand small natural disasters and attacks by ordinary regimental-level troops. It already has a hint of a 'castle' about it. Please continue to build it, and let it become your most solid haven in the apocalypse!"

Li Tianran looked at the data displayed by the system, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

In recent days, according to Qin Yiming's suggestion, he had added some auxiliary defensive weapons, such as the 12 self-detonating robots.

They were only the size of a human fist, carried high-explosive bombs, and could pierce thick keratinous skin and steel plates to enter the vital parts of heavy tanks and armored beast kings for self-detonation, achieving the effect of directly attacking the heart.

The current defensive strength of the farm was stronger than the shelter being built in the city center.

Of course, this strength was not about firepower, but an overall comparison.

The farm had a small area, and these firepower were enough to completely cover the entire defense line, while the shelter had a large area. Even if its firepower was stronger, it was greatly dispersed, and its suppression of the enemy within a certain range was not as fierce as the farm.

Overall, with Qin Yiming's joining, the construction of the farm was even more watertight.

After reviewing the basic situation of the farm, Li Tianran stood in front of the window and skillfully opened the online forum.

"Breaking news... Pablo Escobar, a Colombian drug lord with 40,000 private armed troops, launched a coup seven days ago, seizing the political power of four northern provinces, looting resources, massacring civilians, and it is rumored that he is using extremely anti-human methods to conduct human experiments, trying to create super humans like beast kings. It is reported that the mortality rate of civilians in the four provinces occupied by the family has reached more than 45%, and the mortality rate is still increasing."

"According to insiders, Pablo has successfully created super humans through this method, and is using them to carry out assassinations and terrorist attacks, trying to seize the remaining national political power!"

"Breaking news, warlords in South Africa and Somalia are in fierce fighting. Corpses are everywhere. The new government supported by the United Nations is completely hollowed out. The four major warlords occupy and seize territory, forcibly incorporating civilians into the army, and using them as suicide squads at the forefront during battles..."

"It is reported that after the battles, the four major warlords will use the captured prisoners as human test subjects, injecting them with radiation toxins. In the territory of Somalia, human remains with terrifying limbs and resembling monsters can be seen everywhere..."

"Breaking news..."

Now many backward countries in the world have launched wars. Their national systems were originally not strong enough. Warlords were divided and ruled, and drug dealers were rampant. At this time, they were fighting each other in order to compete for the remaining resources.

Their ideas may be the same as those bandits who once wanted to establish "Eden". Now the resources on Blue Star are scarce, and only by killing 99% of the bottom "garbage" can the remaining 1% of the "elite" rely on these resources to continue their extravagant lives.

Using radiation toxins to create evolvers is a way to eliminate the population.

This method is obviously much cheaper than investing heavily in the research of gene drugs. It does not require huge resources. It only needs some radiation water sources with absolutely no cost and cheap population. In South Africa, a place that was originally barbaric and uncivilized, this method is actually very popular!

If they fail to create evolvers, they can simply eliminate the population; if they create evolvers, they don't have to worry that the other party will feel hatred for their brutal methods and refuse to work for them. Just let him experience the life of a superior!

Food, wine, beauties, the power to kill, and a respected and feared status!

After these sugar-coated bullets are fired, it will take at most three days for those evolvers who were originally at the bottom of society but suddenly jumped to the top to fall.

"The world is getting more and more chaotic..." Li Tianran said to himself calmly as he looked at the reports in the forum.

Today, the Internet has become the only way for people to understand world affairs. The country has not closed the channel to the external network, seemingly wanting to use this method to allow domestic compatriots to make a comparison.

Facts have proved that this is a very effective method.

After seeing the suffering of people in foreign countries, the complaints of the people in the country who were huddled in shelters were indeed much less.

Although life is a little difficult, living resources and life safety can still be guaranteed.

Li Tianran admired these war reporters. In a situation where the situation was so chaotic, they still dared to go deep into those chaotic places to take photos, interview, and break the news...

If they encounter a warlord with a bad temper, the entire photography crew may be buried in a foreign land.

Li Tianran's eyes swept over a series of shocking pictures.

In Somalia, South Africa, distorted human corpses were piled up into mountains, and cold-looking soldiers were carrying gasoline barrels to pour fuel on them, and were burning corpses in the open air.

In Colombia, private armed forces under the command of a big drug lord were cutting open the ice surface of the glacier and throwing a large number of corpses into the ice caves of the river, allowing them to float away with the underground river... or become food for some mutant sea beasts.

It was like a living hell.

Li Tianran did not sympathize with these people, but only felt a "uncomfortable" feeling when he saw the corpses of his fellow human beings.

But at this moment, Li Tianran suddenly saw a photo in the forum, which exposed a warlord in ancient India who was using "drug experiments" as a disguise and was actually using radiation toxins to create evolvers!

This photo was a little blurry, but Li Tianran keenly saw the profile of a Yanhuang man in this photo, and his pupils shrank.

This profile was very familiar...

Where had he seen it before?

Li Tianran suddenly remembered.

In Ren Xiao's memory screen, this man was an important branch member of the Bai family of the Umbrella Corporation!

"Umbrella Corporation, it seems that the destruction of Tiancheng Corporation hasn't taught you a lesson..." Li Tianran's eyes narrowed slightly.
