Chapter 582: Ultra-Long Distance Communication, Attack of the Humans from Earth!

The wind swept across the wilderness and into the dark village. The sounds of the mountains and waves rumbled violently.

This was not the first time mankind had dealt with such terrifying natural disasters.

However, whenever a natural disaster occurred, everyone developed a sense of reverence toward nature.

The precursor of the heavy snowfall was nothing less than the previous blizzard.

Since ten o’clock at night, boisterous winds violently blew across the wilderness and swept across the earth with terrifying force.

Dark clouds covered the skies but could not stop the strange red light that came out from nowhere to pierce through them.

Most humans and foreigners who had found refuge could barely hide in potholes and watch the changes happening outside in the extreme environment.

A small portion that had not enough time to prepare or was not fully prepared could only rush to safety with the animals scattered around the New World, praying that the disaster did not specifically “take care” of them.

Indeed.

The message that the game sent to everyone through the game panel at ten o’clock was its way of “taking care” of them!

In order to continue to solidify the concept of territory and establish their game “rules.”

Whenever a disaster struck or was happening, for any players that were not in a territory, the disaster severity three kilometers around the player would increase by 50%

This range was not fixed in a certain place but would move along with the player until they entered and joined a territory.

“This is bad. There is a signal interference barrier at the Great Mountain, and it has also extended to our vicinity.

“I hope Marshal Wang and the others are okay!”

The leadership members were gathered on top of Iron Stone Mountain.

Li Hu said what everyone had in their hearts.

In seconds, everyone started talking about it and was worried about the safety of Marshal Wang and the team as well as the other human beings outside.

However, while the others were chatting, Su Mo, who was standing in front, remained silent as he continued to look at the horizon with his binoculars.

There was a strong shield surrounding the Great Mountain.

According to the second team sent out, this shielding was not caused by high-power interference equipment.

It was caused by strong geomagnetic activity inside and below the mountain.

Like a natural shield, this magnetic field change was a pressure cooker that was continuously pressurized and accumulating internal energy.

As time went on, the scope of its influence would continue to increase…

Until the whole New World was covered, or…

It detonated in advance!

“Could it be that there will be a terrifying earthquake after winter?”

The more you know, the more judgment could be made about these potential signs.

Correspondingly, there would be more fear.

According to the length and width of the Great Mountain, taking into account the increased geomagnetic activity index below, if an earthquake were to occur…

It would be at least a 9.5 magnitude!

The reason why Su Mo predicted it would start from such a high level was because of the knowledge and records of humans on Earth.

The most terrifying earthquake on earth was a magnitude 9.5 earthquake in Chile.

Usually, people described the terrifying degree of an earthquake by how many casualties it caused, how many buildings were destroyed, and how far it spread.

However, when it came to this 9.5 magnitude earthquake…

Many data and literature looked past these human sufferings and explained the impact from the perspective of geophysics.

This kind of terrifying earthquake could cause tremors across the entire Earth, and if it erupted in the small New World…

“Destruction, absolute destruction!”

Su Mo was worried as he thought about the consequences but temporarily put the thought of the possibility aside.

In terms of everyone’s development progress at this stage, once such a disaster occurred, it would be the end for everyone.

The game would never allow that to happen.

The rules of the incubator absolutely would never allow it to slaughter the creatures inside like this!

“Excluding this possibility, then the only possibility is…

“Geomagnetic reversal?”

Compared with the terrifying earthquake, the brewing energy from the storm could also be the culprit behind the geomagnetic reversal.

According to human documentation and some subsequent follow-up studies, geomagnetic reversals had happened a few times on Earth.

According to the law of quality variability, the reversal occurs when the magnetic fields weakened to a certain level.

The current situation happening in the New World completely matched this theory.

“The New World, no, this wasteland, like the Earth, is currently at a state of weak magnetic fields. So if the geomagnetic reversal happened instantaneously, the consequences wouldn’t be serious.

“However, the problem is that…the geomagnetic reversal isn’t going to happen instantaneously but instead gradually over time.”

During the process of geomagnetic reversal, the magnetic field would become extremely chaotic. Various powerful energy fields would continue to sweep the ground, and communication equipment would be practically useless until the magnetic field stabilizes.

The existence of the magnetic field would greatly affect the ecological climate.

Once the magnetic field was disrupted for a long time, it would cause a series of catastrophic weather, such as typhoons, tornadoes, large areas of extreme drought, or large areas of flooded rain…

As for electrical equipment, without proper casing protection, the capacitor would also be destroyed by the energy wave in the magnetic field offset, resulting in paralysis.

‘We have to plan ahead.’

Su Mo put down the thoughts in his heart, put away his binoculars, and squeezed out a smile.

At this stage…

At least the territory was still standing strong and solid!

With the ability to modify the weather and change the terrain with territory points, Su Mo was not worried that there will be long-term bad weather sweeping the territory.

They could only take one step at a time into the future.

‘When all fails, I can move them all to the underground shelter.’

“Let’s go! Time to welcome the disaster!”

Su Mo hanged the binoculars on his waist and descended down the mountain in the lead.

The others quickly followed and regained their focus.

…

They called it disaster resistance.

However, there were very few territories in the New World that could truly “resist” the disaster.

The majority of the people were either hiding or avoiding the disaster.

This included several powerful territories such as the Demon clan, Light Empire, Dwarves, Moon Wolf clan, and so on.

The residents of these territories stayed in their designated locations, and none had the courage to step out into the wild.

However, the human territories were full of energy in the face of the impending heavy snow.

“Shelter leader, you’re here!”

“What’s the situation? Has everything been set up?”

“We’re good. Everyone is well-prepared! By the way, we have also linked the signal from Dragon Flag Shelter!”

They headed to the information room.

Su Mo was thrilled to hear Zhang Biao announce that they connected to Long Anguo, and he immediately walked inside the room.

The radio communication range could travel much further than the 10,000 kilometers of the New World.

In theory, the radio signals could follow as long as light could pass through.

In practical applications, it would not be challenging to link tens of thousands of kilometers despite all kinds of interference.

Su Mo sat up straight, put on the headphones, and turned the knob.

A familiar voice could be heard.

It was the voice of Long Anguo, the leader of Huaxia, the shelter leader of Dragon Flag Shelter.

“Shelter leader Su, I haven’t heard from you for several days! The disaster is coming. How is the preparation in your territory? Looking forward to your reply!”

Long Anguo’s voice was vague because of the distance, but his words could be clearly distinguished.

“I’m fine here, the disaster is not a problem. What’s the situation of our humankind in the deep sea? I look forward to a reply soon.”

Radio communication was inferior to a telephone and the longer the information frequency band, the greater the probability of getting lost in the process.

Therefore, Su Mo quickly said a few words and pressed the button to send, then patiently waited.

A few moments later.

After a few bursts of squeaks, Su Mo put on the headphones and continued to listen.

“The situation here in the deep sea is stable, and there is a reduction in the magnitude of the disaster. Shelter leader Su doesn’t have to worry about us…”

“…”

Across the mountains and seas, there was a full three to four minutes of waiting in between every message communicated through the radio.

Even so, it could not stop them from communicating with one another.

After chatting about the current situation, Su Mo began to ask about the current situation of human beings in the deep sea.

The hundreds of millions of people in the New World account for less than 10% of the total number of human survivors.

There were another 90% of human beings who stayed and developed in the Deep Sea.

These people were not only the backup force of mankind but also the main forces of future disaster resistance!

On the other side, since they had encrypted the channel, Long Anguo did not keep any secrets and explained everything in detail.

After a long while, the last sentence of mutual encouragement was exchanged, and the two people hung up the signal!

“It seems that discussing the opportunity to recuperate with the game was indeed the right thing to do!”

Su Mo took off the headphones and leaned back halfway on the chair. He was excited!

It was pretty much as expected.

Although the development rate of humans in the deep sea was not as fast as that of the New World, there were various relic bonuses.

However, they used the most basic structure.

Humans relied on whatever they could to survive.

The abundance of seafood in the deep sea allowed them not to worry about the shortage of food sources in the short term but instead devote more attention to productivity.

Take the gathering place of 800,000 people in Dragon Flag Shelter as an example.

They found dozens of resource mining sites with abundant reserves. Also, they used the lucky bag rewards earned by a large number of people to accumulate a large number of items in the early stage and build factories.

Today, the factories that produce all kinds of small commodities had been fully put into use, and a large number of things could be produced every day, either to be used or taken to other places to be sold by caravans, and traded back for more commodities or raw materials.

On the other hand, a notable improvement was…

The birth of their military factory!

It had only been over a month, and every day, Dragon Flag’s arms factory could produce nearly 200 rifles and nearly 10,000 rounds of ammunition!

It was hard to imagine how much the armed forces in the deep sea would develop in one year!

In other places, the development speed was much slower than that of Dragon Flag shelter, but overall, they could not be underestimated.

‘Indeed…

‘This is the real strength of humans. Once given the opportunity to recuperate, we can have an explosive qualitative change in an instant!’

Lucky bags.

Disaster relief.

They had gotten through the individual stages and were part of a community.

These three aspects were different from the past.

Given a year’s time, even if the magnitude of the disaster in the deep sea returned to the same magnitude or higher, humans would have what it takes to resist the disaster.

To a certain extent, the speed of human development in the deep sea was much faster and than the first-ranked person, Su Mo.

After he thought about it, Su Mo did not feel inferior at all.

‘They’re taking the old road and will eventually be faced with upper limits and constraints. Once they reach the upper limit, it will be extremely difficult to make progress.

‘I’m taking a new road. It’s definitely difficult in the early stages, but once we get through it, we will be much stronger than if we were to take the old road!’

The technological innovation brought about by a single energy stone mine was ground-breaking.

Additionally, there were countless ruins hidden deep underground.

Even if Su Mo had another chance to choose, he would still choose to go to the New World without hesitation!

Su Mo noted down the main points of the conversation in a notebook.

He glanced toward the time and saw that it had just passed eleven o’clock.

Then, turned the knob again and began to switch channels to listen to messages from other parts of the New World.

“In this sh*tty game, I’m a businessman. How can I have my own territory? You can go ahead and super double the disasters around me. I will definitely use a dump truck tonight…”

“Heavy snow is coming. The disaster is merciless, but we humans take care of one another. There are still many rooms and materials in our territory to take in a group of refugees. Requirements: 165cm, 34C, sweet voice, brother, you understand what I mean, right? Come to channel xxx, if you meet the requirements and contact me directly.

“By the way, is there a disaster-fighting live broadcast this time? I really want to see what Almighty Su’s territory looks like now. I heard that there are large numbers of factories in the deep sea. I’m so envious.

“Is there anyone who will raid the ruins together? Location: xx. xx, looking at this, it is expected to be open for three days. Hurry up and contact me. Time waits for no one!”

“The airdrop is really rubbish. It gave me two computers from two different random airdrops. I have no electricity, and no Internet in this wasteland! It’s useless to give me a computer!”

“Brothers near the Golden Jackal, be careful. My brother said that something is wrong with this group of foreign races tonight. Do be careful and don’t get robbed by them!”

“…”

At this stage, after all, there were still a small number of people who owned radios.

Therefore, compared with the previous game channel, the conversations were undoubtedly a lot more serious.

Many people were passing on true or false news, and it was very lively.

After listening carefully for a while, Su Mo thoughtfully put down the headphones, closed his eyes, and began to summarize.

First, through the information of these people, it was once again verified that the core of the shelter would deplete the energy inside when disasters struck, opening up a gap for entry.

Second, the integration speed of humans and foreigners had completely exceeded expectations.

There were already a small number of relationships formed between humans and foreign races, reaching common ground with humans, and they had their guard completely down.

For a short period, it was not a bad thing.

However, in the long run, “unpleasant” experiences were bound to happen.

At a critical moment, once the other party turned against the humans, the consequences would definitely not be something mankind of the New World could handle.

Once again, humans in the New World had different management than those humans of the Deep Sea, and there was no suitable leader who rose up to lead.

Most of them fought on their own, like gangsters released from prison. The chaos made one’s scalp tingle.

Even with the bonus of ruins, more and more people were bound to be eliminated from the game.

“Shelter leader! It’s eleven fifty!”

While thinking about it, the door was pushed open, and Zhang Biao’s voice sounded.

“Okay, I’ll be right here!”

They were about to go through the disaster again.

They did not miss it, nor were they excited.

Su Mo put on an insulated helmet, gloves, arm guards, and a scrag that the shelter had prepared in advance, then strode out.

Under the night sky, the spotlights that were set up a long time ago were turned on at full power, and the village was as bright as day.

With 20 people as a unit, a full 70 teams had been evenly delegated around three kilometers of the village.

They wore solemn expressions and looked at the silent sky while waiting for the war ahead of them.

Beep…

Beep…

The loudspeaker placed on the high platform in the center of the village kept ringing and announced the latest time.

It announced the arrival of eleven fifty-nine.

The blood-red line that pierced through the black clouds in the sky reached the extreme and appeared like real blood that would pour down.

The savage wind also began to roar wildly as the temperature dropped steadily.

Suddenly…

The clock hand quietly moved past the last bit of space.

It was here…

The heavy snow!
