Star of Civilization

v2 Chapter 3: Wind and Blood (1)

The egoistic face of the "Planetary Council" is exposed at this moment.

According to the estimates of the most authoritative scientific research institutions, when the planet is shrouded in a huge disaster, very few human beings can survive, which will not exceed one millionth of the current population.

The human governing body representing the entire planet, the "Planetary Council", is also in chaos inside. All survival resources will only be tilted towards a very small number of people. Either a wealthy, high-status upper class, or someone of great value.

But how could these people possibly control the lives of all ordinary people?

All human beings will face great disasters. These so-called "privileged" bigwigs have already arranged their way back. Maybe they have immigrated to a space city or a Mars base, or they have already hid in some Secret hiding place.

The "Planetary Council" trick to deceive the world is really cheap.

Anyone can clearly detect some kind of conspiracy through this planned rhetoric. Actually it is. Before the press conference, all human beings had long known that the "calamity" of this planet was about to come.

Everyone knows that the next era is the time to show what price human beings can pay in order to survive!

But in the face of such a huge disaster, what can ordinary people do except close their eyes and wait to die?

Joyna can be regarded as a hard-core ruthless person, but she was calm when she saw this scene, and she was always indifferent to it. She can't remember what happened after that, because she was sent to the most advanced hibernation chamber underground, isolated from the world.

Among all the plans of the military, the priority of "Project Titan" has always been the highest, and it has never changed. Even at this moment, not only is it not forgotten, but it is more essential and more valued.

Because the hope of human survival may be pinned on it.

At night, a north wind with a disgusting smell blew into the wilderness in an instant.

"Well--"

"It's you... you're here too...? Did you come here specifically to find me?"

In a drowsy state, Joyna was a little confused, dreamed of a face she was very familiar with, and her heart suddenly throbbed.

This man's face shape is well-known, his facial features are straight, and his body is burly. At first glance, he is tall and handsome. The gentle sunset behind him outlines the figure, facing Georgina calmly and naturally, and seems to be smiling at her all the time, whispering something incessantly.

The man slowly stretched out his arms, spread his palms, and gently cupped her cheeks, which made Joyna very comfortable.

But after a while, the man quickly turned around, a special vehicle of the "Planetary Council" military was parked behind him, the man waved his hand with his back to her, as if saying goodbye, and then strode forward go.

The figure became blurred, and Joyna panicked when she saw it.

"summer--"

"No! No, don't go!"

Under the ecstasy, Joyna recollected from the tenderness, her body jumped up like a spring, and hurriedly chased after her.

Joyna's hand was on his shoulder, and the other arm was wrapped around it, wanting to quickly wrap her arms around each other's neck like before, and kiss him again...

But at this moment, she only felt dazzled, and countless gold stars burst out in front of her.

ah--

Afterwards, a cold feeling came, and the tentacles realized that this was not the texture of a man's skin, and suddenly woke up from the dream!

If there is still a soft place in her heart now, then time should have already covered up all this.

A dream is a dream after all.

Joyna was in a cold sweat. After a few seconds, she let out a long breath. After a moment of stunnedness, she suddenly realized something and turned her head to look at the ground.

She propped up her right arm, and the fingers of her left hand touched a strange "stone", but it was not as cold as a stone to the touch, and its shape was different from other stones, it was long and narrow, and the surface was uneven.

"Hey, isn't it a stone?"

It was dark all around, she propped herself up, leaned in and groped, trying to see what she had touched.

"what--!"

After careful identification, she let out a low exclamation.

A broken-spotted thighbone, apparently human, had been buried here for a long time. The small half is exposed on the ground, next to the roots of the tree, and it seems to be very old.

It's not that Joyner hasn't seen human skeletons, but she's still quite shocked to see this thing under the current circumstances. She threw down the bones in a panic, her heart beating violently against her chest, and she could even hear the sound of "tom tom".

Has anyone died here? Why is it buried so shallow...?

Joyna thought for a while, wanting to leave this ghost place to calm down, but she didn't know where to go. After all, her current physical condition is still weak, so let's wait until dawn.

She moved to another tree, leaned restlessly against the trunk, and couldn't help looking around.

Although it was night, her eyesight could still see something.

The surrounding area is full of desolate land. As far as the eye can see, it is either a rocky shoal or a hill. Not far away, you can vaguely see some ruins of buildings outcropping the ground. She tried to think back, but the scenery of this place and the memory in her mind did not match up at all.

How long has she been "hibernating"?

Maybe decades ~lightnovelpub.net~ maybe hundreds of years? It can't be thousands of years!

A throbbing, every time Joyner thinks of this, she has a sense of fear in her heart - what has this world turned into?

In the end she came to the conclusion that she was going to survive no matter what the world turned out to be.

No way, it seems to have to wait until dawn to find all the answers.

After a rest, Joyna finally regained some physical strength. But she still felt very cold, and when she looked down inadvertently, she saw that the clothes on her body had already been scratched and looked unremarkable. And the cold and damp stick to the body, unable to keep out the cold at all.

She tore off her clothes and wrung them out and put them aside. She tried to build a bonfire for warmth, but couldn't find any dry branches, firewood, and kindling tools.

After thinking about it carefully, it may take even more physical strength to start a fire under such conditions. So, she didn't bother to think about it so much, so she just leaned back on a sturdy tree root and lay down almost completely.

The gap between the roots of the tree is just enough to accommodate her body, and it can also help her resist the wind and cold. She figured that as long as her body temperature gradually warmed up, she would be able to better adapt to the cold weather at night until dawn.

Now she just hopes that the day will come soon, so that she can go out and find something to eat.

After a few more hours, the sky turned grey, and it looked like it would soon be dawn.

At this point, Joyner was able to identify the direction by the shape of the branches and the sparseness of the leaves. She stared into the distance, quietly waiting to see the sun rise in the east.

At this moment, she heard a faint sound from the wilderness.

The sound was small and intermittent at first, but became clearer after a few minutes. ?
