Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

February 18th.

Clear skies.

Noon temperature, 23 degrees.

The scorching sun is shining high, and the temperature seems to have completely rebounded, with a sweltering feeling in the air.

According to the month, winter has not yet departed. This winter, although colder than previous ones, with blizzards more persistent.

But it ended very abruptly, in just a short month, the temperature soared from several degrees below zero to over twenty degrees above zero.

This day's midday sun is exceptionally hot, carrying a strange warmth.

The blazing sun, the blue sky and white clouds, under the avenue trees frozen to death in the blizzard, a few green blades of grass have sprouted.

After the blizzard, the sunlight finally spilled over the snow-covered land, melting the pure white snowflakes. This scene was filled with a refreshing and invigorating atmosphere.

With the warmth of the sun, the accumulated snow had already melted, forming small streams and puddles.

Water droplets fell from the rooftop, breaking the usual silent cold. The colors of the grass and land also emerged.

Accompanied by the rustling breeze across the treetops, the air carried a moist aura, exuding a fresh scent.

In the wet soil, tiny green moss and tender buds began to emerge from underground, bringing new life and hope.

Trees, houses, and scenery, covered in white snow a month ago, began to gradually reveal their original appearance. The snow on the branches gradually melted, leaving behind a layer of crystal-clear water droplets.

As time passed, the accumulated snow completely melted away. Although the earth had not fully regained its past vitality and vigor, at least in some low-lying areas in the wild, a hint of greenery appeared.

.......

Big Camphor Tree Base.

Li Yu climbed down from the wall and headed to the drainage outlet in the Inner City to check once more.

Yesterday, after Xu Zhen and their cleaning and repair, they had fixed the drainage and sewer system of the Big Camphor Tree Base.

Since the installation of the iron railing and line control system was completed by night, Li Yu hadn't gone to check. Now he needed to inspect it.

On the way, he saw the paths in the Inner City swarming with ants, as the birds that could be seen yesterday had vanished without a trace.

Leaving the villa area this morning, he also noticed that the wolves he raised didn't come out to frolic today. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Keep in mind, during the previous cold, these wolves were cooped up indoors for several months.

Yesterday, they were still running wild all over the base, but today they suddenly seemed like eggplants hit by frost, hiding in the villa unwilling to get out the door.

Even when Li Yu tried to go out, they bit his trouser legs, not wanting him to leave.

Li Yu couldn't help but feel a bit emotional; animals indeed have a much stronger sense of danger than humans.

In a world showing a brand-new face, some animals surviving in the Doomsday seemed to fear something, each displaying different behaviors.

Since the temperature rose and the snow melted, many survivors thought everything was getting better, filling them with hope to continue living.

But Li Yu knew it was just an illusion; soon, even more terrifying disasters would arrive.

.....

Li Yu arrived at the drainage outlet, accompanied by Xu Zhen, Ding Jiu, and others he called over.

Looking into the well, the shallow water flows slowly.

Li Yu spoke: "Open the iron grid and take a look."

Upon hearing, Xu Zhen quickly went to a small room beside the well and flipped the switch.

This switch controlled the cliff water outlet and the iron bar intersections in the well collecting flows from various places.

From the cliff to the Inner City ground, the channel had to pass through three barriers: a downward-flowing mesh, an iron grid in the well, and finally an iron grid on the cliff side.

Each has three switches, which can be checked separately.

Xu Zhen turned on all three switches, causing the water flow in the well to slightly accelerate.

Unless one looked carefully, you couldn't tell the difference after opening it.

This was because the drains had been cleaned over the past two days, and the mesh and iron grid had gaps, not blocking much water.

The mesh had just been added this morning; after a turtle was washed away, Xu Zhen also added meshes at various ground sewer inlets to keep leaves and garbage on the ground, cleaning them right before they enter, preventing them from flowing into the sewer.

And cleaning on the ground was much more straightforward and convenient.

Seeing the mesh opened on the ground, Li Yu took out the walkie-talkie, asking Song Min in the monitoring room to check if the iron grid on the cliffside was open.

After confirming the iron grid opened smoothly, Li Yu looked at Xu Zhen, nodded slightly, and said: "Good job, continue checking for any omissions or possible improvements. Also, I think it's best to set up some meshes over long intervals in ground channels to keep the leaves and debris out of the underground sewer. It's simpler to clean them on the ground; below, it gets more troubling."

Xu Zhen, holding the wrench, said: "Okay, Director Li, I'll keep improving."

"Yes." After confirming the drainage system had no significant issues, Li Yu instructed Xu Zhen again.

After finishing here, Li Yu headed towards the greenhouse.

On the road, he looked at the paddy and sliced sweet potatoes being sun-dried for two and a half days.

He crouched down and picked up a handful of paddy, rubbing it in his palm.
