Chapter 623: Cataclysm 2

I don’t know why, on December 23, 2035, a super solar storm suddenly hit the earth, the magnetic field of the Antarctic and Arctic is reversed, causing a volcanic eruption, a strong earthquake, and a tsunami. In an instant, the earth turned into a purgatory on earth.

The super electromagnetic pulse directly destroyed all satellites in the earth's orbit. After descending to the earth, it destroyed all power facilities, network communications and all electronic equipment again. All items on the earth that originally worked by magnetic force failed, such as computer hard disks, storages, and even independent USB flash drives, all failed after being subjected to magnetic storm.

Some places where electronic components are used have all failed and damaged. Even cars on the street have been burned out. All parts of the electronic components have become a pile of scrap iron. In 2035, the earth is highly dependent on electronic products. Whether from military or ordinary people's lives, from communications to transportation, food, clothing, housing and transportation, people cannot do without electronic products. However, in the magnetic storm, all electronic components on the earth's surface are damaged. Only those underground bases hidden below 30 meters underground are still some surviving electronic products.

The entire human society was destroyed, and the human technology on the earth suddenly regressed for 100 years.

This is not over yet. Due to volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, etc., the number of casualties on the earth surged. Then, due to solar storms, it brought a lot of radiation to the earth, causing the earth to die on a large scale, including humans. In the very short period of time at the beginning, humans disappeared nearly one-tenth of the population.

By 2035, the original population of the earth had reached 8 billion, but in three months, more than 1 billion were killed or injured on the earth. But this is not over yet. Due to the chaos in the social system caused by the catastrophe, food shortage, dry water sources, severe radiation, and the attacks of mutant animals and plagues, human death is still intensifying.

Then a sudden flu really killed humans. Sunspots can cause cold virus mutations, which humans have known for a long time, but this time, a new influenza swept the world, and humans lost a large number of experimental equipment, pharmaceutical factories, and the foundation for treatment. Without response measures, humans were infected on a large scale and then died. Finally, as winter approached, the cold had claimed nearly 3 billion lives.

Now, the estimated population on Earth is only about 4 billion, perhaps even smaller, because there is no way to count in detail now.

There are 4 billion people, which is quite a lot. There are still half of the population on the earth. However, more difficult days are still waiting for humans. Due to regional climate changes, the cultivation activities on which humans rely on are forced to stop. People slowly survived that winter, looked for some suitable areas, and then started production again.

Radiation is everywhere, but later people got good news, that is, this kind of radiation energy is not like the radiation caused by nuclear explosions. The radiation particles of the sun are produced by nuclear fusion, which is cleaner than the radiation particles generated by nuclear fission, and are much less harmful to humans. Therefore, humans can wear nuclear-resistant suits and go through the initial period.

However, this radiation is still fatal and will cause genetic mutations. It is not a kind thing. After a few months of the catastrophe, animals began to mutate, and humans began to see the power of mutated beasts.

After the initial panic, humans began to study gene beasts. Due to the development of gene technology before the catastrophe, humans obtained a new substance by extracting and refining the blood and body fluids of mutant beasts. This substance is the reason why mutant beasts are powerful, and people call it gene fluids.

Later, through experiments, gene fluids were divided into many types, including the most basic anti-nuclear radiation gene fluid, strengthened gene fluid, cured gene fluid, eliminated gene fluid, enhancement gene fluid, and even special gene fluids.

Because of their different abilities, those mutant beasts are divided into many classes, ranging from level 1 to level 9. The first level has basically weak abilities and is not much stronger than ordinary beasts. At most, they are not afraid of radiation. Therefore, there is no such sales of first-level gene liquid among gene liquid merchants. People at the lowest level and start taking them from level 2.

The strongest mutant beast caught by humans now is a level 7 crocodile mutant beast, but no one outsiders knows how much ability it can be enhanced. As for the level 9 mutant beast, many of them are just human speculations. Just like the giant snake with a hundred meters long, it will reach, humans don’t know.

Mu Yang also learned that the so-called enhancement ability refers to enhancing the ability of the individual users. For example, in the early stage, your strength is 100 kilograms. If you take the gene fluid that enhances 50% of the strength, it will increase to 150 kilograms. If you have 200 kilograms of strength, you can increase to 300 kilograms of strength by taking the gene fluid that enhances 50%. Therefore, the initial attributes of human beings are also very important.

Humans began to have the ability to fight against genetic beasts, but human enemies are not only genetic beasts, but also mutant people.

Mutants are caused by radiation and become another type of creature. They may have human minds and minds, but they do not have human emotions. They are bloodthirsty and easy to kill. They hate humans. They can live in any dirty place and wait for an opportunity to kill humans. And they have a large number. According to preliminary estimates, the world should be no less than one billion, and many of them are caused by that damn influenza. Those original humans have become one of the biggest threats to humans.

How many mutant beasts are there in the world? Humans cannot count them or they cannot count them. However, people have made an analysis that in a group of about 1,000 animals, a mutant beast may appear.

This number is already very terrifying. The number of animals on the earth is definitely not humans. Take rats as an example. There are more than 500 species of rat family, with a total number of about 50 billion people worldwide, which is more than 6 times that of humans. They are distributed all over the world, and even in places where humans cannot reach them, and there are traces of rats. They are the most successful and common mammals on the earth. Even under nuclear radiation, their adaptability is many times that of humans.

They spread the virus in large quantities, and the biggest culprit in the cold was the rats.

If one mutant beast appears in 1,000 ordinary animals, then the whole world will not be less than 50 million mutant mice. What a terrifying number, and this number may be even more, because the mouse has too strong adaptability.
