Chapter 338 Get Ready, We Are Going to Do Something Big

Someone asked, "One bug for some food?"

"Yes, provided that I have never collected one. For the sake of fairness, those who arrive at the base first will have priority to exchange with me."

The group was soon flooded with these two topics. Jingshu did not read on, but asked Sumali privately, "Are you really collecting or pretending to collect? I'm afraid that it is not to give those students more food, so you need to beat around the bush like this."

Sumali quickly replied with a laughing and crying expression, indicating that she was also helpless, "Don't you know that the higher-ups have issued orders to conduct genetic recombination and research and transform these bugs into new food.

But currently only the protein and fat of silkworm pupae, grasshoppers, and stick insects are most suitable for human intake. At worst, they say that they want to breed cockroaches on a large scale and make them into compressed protein food, but the progress is not good. Someone found dark pigments in some slowly mutated and evolved bugs. It has a lot of protein, so they want to do more research."

Jingshu then remembered that these experiments had all started, and it was thanks to the research that they started a few years in advance that they were able to produce these mutant gene foods in the extremely cold era when nothing could be grown.

Turning cockroaches into compressed protein food. Jingshu had never heard of this. Wait, wait, wait, damn, the protein food fried in corpse oil that she ate in her previous life, was this it? Ugh, Jingshu almost vomited after knowing the truth.

Jingshu had to swallow a few braised eggs to calm down, but she was not satisfied and ate a bowl of braised beef with chili sauce. Only then did she feel better.

Damn, how many things the government has hidden from ordinary people like them? Jingshu didn't dare to think about it, and didn't want to think about it anymore. After discussing the relevant matters with Su Mali, she started practicing the Rubik's Cube.

The news also reported a bad news, that the global catastrophic earthquake was probably not accidental, and it would not stop in a short time, and it was even likely to last for a long time like a rainstorm.

"The Earth's orbit changes and the gravity is disordered, which causes irregular rotation and revolution, thus leading to the disorder of the Earth's seasons. According to relevant data, the earthquake of this global disaster is not an external influence, but is most likely the self-regulation of the Earth. The Earth's rotation cycle was too fast before, and it is too slow now. The two forces tear each other apart, forming a vortex energy body. We collectively call this earthquake a tornado earthquake."

"In layman's terms, when the Earth completes its self-regulation, the end of the world will end, so please hold on for a while."

It's really hard for the news anchor to find a topic for the end of the world at every disaster, which makes Jingshu almost believe it.

Boom!

The ground began to shake violently again. The lightning and thunder outside did not weaken with time, but instead had a stronger and stronger posture.

The crowd hiding in the wetland park gradually couldn't stay any longer. Some people evacuated back, but were buried alive halfway. The other group of people who were scared hurried back. The news spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and it became more and more exaggerated. Later, hundreds of people were buried alive by the earthquake as soon as they walked out of the door.

Jingshu knew this was the case. Although the Banana Community did not collapse, if she said she wanted to go back to live there, she would probably be drowned by the spit of her family. Sometimes it was so painful. She knew that the Banana Community would not collapse, but she could not go back. She had to pretend to be very scared. She could not predict the future.

Therefore, when Jingshu was about to go out on the morning of the third day, she encountered great obstacles. After eating more than 20 pork vermicelli buns and assuring countless times that Sumali's bodyguards would protect them, Jingshu got on Sumali's extended version of the commercial vehicle and went to Xishan.

Before leaving, Jingye must let Jingshu carry a black schoolbag. This schoolbag was a mechanism he had developed in the past two days according to Jingshu's ideas. It would react to the surroundings in dangerous moments, and instantly pop out long and thin claws, like a spider web, and then bounce Jingshu out.

"How is it?" Jingye asked with anticipation.

Jingshu wiped her sweat, "Grandpa, this thing is good, but I guess only I can use it. Who among you can carry these dozens of kilograms?"

Jingye: "...I'm giving it a try first. If it works, I'll modify it and make it aluminum alloy, which will be much lighter."

Su Mali looked at Jingshu enviously with a large black schoolbag iron frame on her back, and said that if it was developed, she would also buy one.

When Jingshu and Su Mali arrived, more than 20 people were waiting at the gate of the Xishan base. It can be said that most of Jingshu's high school classmates, except those who were not dead, were present.

Because the weather was too cold, they kept breathing, stamping their feet, and some were running. Compared with last year's party, today, the second day of 2025, when she saw her classmates again, she felt that she had indeed lost a lot of weight. Just like her previous life, she began to become skinny.

As always, Sumali was wearing a bubble skirt made of the latest technology thermal material, with a hat and gloves. She was fully equipped yet cute and luxurious. She was full of energy and looked like a pink and tender little princess. She was also very light, just like spring clothes.

Compared to Jingshu, she was much more ordinary. Before the apocalypse, she wore a white down jacket with black leggings. To keep warm, she wore long johns and woolen pants. Before the apocalypse, she was a neat and tidy girl. But now, in the third year of the apocalypse, after experiencing droughts, floods, and earthquakes, she can still wear such a clean white down jacket. She is a rich girl.

"They are coming!"

"They are coming!"

Then the students in strange clothes came running over. Of course, there were a few who were neatly dressed, which was not easy.

But before they chatted for a minute, Jingshu's phone rang. It was Yang Yang!

Originally, there should have been a lively scene of greetings, but the whole scene suddenly became unusually quiet. Everyone's eyes shifted to Jingshu. Everyone subconsciously stopped talking. It was hard to say why, but they felt afraid of disturbing the big guy's phone call.

Jingshu frowned and answered the phone, with a bad premonition in her heart.

"Hello?"

"Hurry up and get ready, we're going to have a big fight."

On the other end of the phone, Yang Yang's suppressed, yet uncontrollable excitement was heard, as if a beast in a cage was roaring with all its might, wanting to get out, longing for freedom, but before going out, it was afraid of waking up the enemy, so it couldn't suppress its low roar.

He tried his best to control himself from erupting too much emotion.
