I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms

Chapter 323: "Ding, Global Random Event, Post-Disaster Reconstruction!



"Prop Name": Red Glasses.

"Prop Level": None.

"Prop Effect": When you wear these glasses, if someone feels envy towards you, you will receive feedback immediately.

"Prop Introduction": One important factor that pushes the progress of social civilization is envy.

"..."

Hungry Monkey looked at Zhou Shen with a complex expression, "Big bro, do you get envious too easily? With an envy time of 782 hours, and 24 hours in a day, even 10 days only gives you 240 hours. That is to say, you've been continuously envious of others for almost thirty days?"

"There are only 79 days in total in the secret realm!"

"Subtracting sleep time, does that mean as long as you're awake, you're envying others?"

"Can you tell me what exactly it is that you've been envying?"

"Miao, why don't we just get rid of this kid Zhou Shen? With his personality, I feel like he will betray us sooner or later, just like Judas among Jesus' Twelve Disciples; betrayal is just a matter of time."

Zhou Shen also looked a bit ugly and angrily said, "Wronged, it's pure slander. Think about it, is this realistic? How could I possibly be envious of others for that long? This judgment is all false."

"Miao, you mustn't believe this."

"Pfft..."

The other Tomb Guardian members around them snickered, clearly, they also had some understanding of Zhou Shen's personality. Each person's reward was different and at this moment, everyone was excitedly sharing the props they had.

Seeing what props everyone else had.

Not just looking at the effects of the props.

Through the prop introductions, one could also roughly gauge what others had been doing in the secret realm and their personalities. This kind of desire to peer into others' inner selves is easily intoxicating.

Chen Miao, however, was not paying attention to the argument between Zhou Shen and Hungry Monkey and instead was looking at his own small reward panel.

"Prop Name": Compass.

"Prop Level": None.

"Prop Effect": When you have this prop, all skills or props that affect emotions cannot affect your emotions.

"Prop Introduction": As the team leader, you've made many correct decisions for the team. You deserve the title of a leader."

What to say about this prop? It's not bad.

After all, it's just a minor reward. You can't expect it to have a huge use, and basically, the effect of this prop can only be used in very few situations. At least for now, he can't remember any past experiences where this prop could come in handy.

Very niche.

But niche props often have one advantage: in some very niche moments, they can play a key and decisive role.

Not bad at all.

He stuffed the compass-like prop into his Nothingness Space and looked up at the sky.

At the moment, it was dusk. After 79 days, this was his first time standing on the land of Blue Star. Although the flood had receded, Blue Star, which had been soaked in the floodwater for more than seventy days, seemed unable to withstand the deluge.

For Blue Star, there wasn't much impact, but for the city, it was almost an apocalyptic blow.

All the buildings were covered in moss, and many had collapsed in the flood. The entire city, seen from above, was a wasteland without any trace of human habitation. It looked like a scene from after the apocalypse.

"So many waterlogged cars..."

Hungry Monkey stood on the edge of the rooftop, looking down at the city and lamented, "Those used car dealers must be thrilled. With so many flood-damaged cars, how long will it take to collect them all? Wait, calling them flood-damaged cars doesn't seem quite right; it should be pee-soaked cars."

Indeed.

Although everyone tacitly avoided mentioning it, they had to face the reality that the entirety of Blue Star had been soaked in a flood made of urine for over seventy days, and the odor in the air was indescribable.

A nauseating stench.

The entire body felt as though it was floating on the verge of celestial ascension, a feeling of approaching transcendence.

One sobering truth was that the difficulty of reconstruction on Blue Star was now greater than starting anew on an untouched planet.

A vast number of infrastructure factories and suppliers had been utterly destroyed by the flood.

Building a house involves real estate playing a leading role, but the industry encompasses thousands of specialized sub-sectors whose combined efforts are needed to construct a building. Now, all these sub-sectors were washed away.

To put it bluntly.

This flood could set Blue Star's technology back decades, with no telling how long recovery to its peak might take, not to mention the uncertainty of whether crops can still be grown on land soaked in urine for such a long time.

The granaries were definitely ruined.

Next, all of humanity would face a food crisis, without a single grain of rice.

...

The group, who were originally making light of the situation, gradually began to realize that the consequences of the flood might not be as simple as just a few extra days in the secret realm; the real impact was only starting to unfold.

This was an apocalypse.

An apocalypse that, despite the timely response of the government preventing immediate casualties, was still destined for a collective demise.

"Damn it..."

Zhou Shen, the first to snap out of it, murmured in a daze, "Has the apocalypse arrived so suddenly? Did the person who predicted the world would end in 2012 ever consider that the end of the world for Blue Star would be due to a flood made of urine?"
