Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

By then, they'd have fresh fish to eat, kelp and seaweed to supplement their nutrition, and they'd figure out how to grow more staple food on the mothership. Life would obviously be getting better...

did not expect……

A rain of icy spikes brought all of them back to the cold reality.

The icicle rain continued until noon the next day, lasting a whole day and night.

It was an indescribable sound.

There were dense "tat-tat" sounds mixed with "ding-ding-ding" as the ice spikes hit the metal deck, like millions of sharp daggers hitting wildly, or like someone was scratching the hull with countless glass fragments.

Every collision makes one's heart tighten.

At night, the Zhou family slept outside the ward.

The corridor was filled with the smell of disinfectant.

Some people sat against the wall, while others curled up on the benches, wrapped in thin blankets and taking a nap.

The lights flickered, and the occasional "beeping" sound of instruments in the ward intertwined with the sound of ice spikes colliding outside, forming a rhythm that made it difficult to sleep.

Zhipeng is relatively stable.

He found a small pot and used limited fuel to cook a pot of rice porridge. The aroma of the porridge filled the narrow space, dispelling some of the cold.

Everyone had a bowl of steaming hot porridge, served with a few slices of smoked fish, which was salty and tasty.

Although simple, it became a rare comfort on this cold night.

By noon, the icy rain finally stopped.

The sky was washed clear, the sun shone through the clouds, and the sea was sparkling.

Everyone said goodbye to Zhipeng and the others and hurried back.

Post-disaster reconstruction work has begun.

Although the ice spikes were long and looked like sharp swords, the sea water temperature was around 20 degrees and the ground temperature was around 25 or 26 degrees, so they melted quickly.

What can melt is only the form, but the wounds left on all things and human beings remain.

When people walked out of the hatch and saw the damage done to the mothership and other ships, everyone gasped.

The deck was covered with dense pits, some deep enough to fit a palm;

The outer bulkhead was penetrated by ice spikes, leaving irregular holes, as if bitten by a giant beast;

Part of the guardrail was broken, and the metal edges were curled up, flashing a cold light.

The statistical results will come out soon.

The ice rain killed 23 people and injured more than 70 people.

A scientific research vessel was directly overturned by the ice rain and sank to the bottom of the sea.

Of the five scientific researchers on board, three unfortunately died. The remaining two were rescued from the sea by soldiers who risked their lives and are currently receiving treatment in the emergency room.

The situation in fish farming areas is equally dire.

After a month of careful feeding, the young fish have grown a lot. They were originally lively and agile, but now they are floating on the sea with their bellies turned upside down, and their white bellies are dazzling in the sun.

Seeing this scene, many people's eyes were red.

Captain Shang immediately ordered the research institute to analyze the cause of the ice rain.

The results came out that afternoon.

According to the report, during the two years of eternal night, the temperature during the daytime gradually rose, causing the remaining ice crystals in the high altitude to melt. However, the middle atmosphere was still at a low temperature, and the melted ice water quickly condensed into sharp "ice ridges".

When these ice spikes accumulate to a certain weight, they fall from the sky, forming this rare "ice spike rain".

The ice spikes can be up to one meter long, with tips as sharp as knives. Once they hit a ship, they can directly penetrate the hull.

Great power!

The damage caused by this is particularly great.

But the problem is, the ground temperature is already over 20 degrees, so the temperature in the sky should not be lower than 0 degrees.

Extreme weather conditions such as ice crystals and ice spikes can only form under conditions below freezing.

The researchers repeatedly calculated and deduced, and even consulted the meteorological data before the eternal night, but they still could not find a more reasonable explanation.
