On Earth, the third year of the outbreak of insect tide, early autumn.

At dusk, summer is as usual, and I return to Quancheng with a pack of harvest from that day.

As a scavenger, in summer, you need to leave a city with a wall of up to 12 meters, go deep into the ruins outside the city, and risk being attacked by mutant insects at any time to find valuable metals.

"Summer is back, how are you getting today?" The people from the metal recycling company were already familiar with Summer. When they saw him walking in, they greeted warmly.

"On average, please give me a price." Xia Ji said, putting a backpack full of metal on the ground.

Metal recycling companies have special machines, just like an X-ray machine used in hospitals in the past. They pass a backpack full of metal into them once, and the system can automatically analyze the weight and composition of the metal and give the purchase price.

"Twenty-seven three, or do you hit the card as usual?"

"Um."

Soon, I received a text message from summer and entered his private account with a 27.30-30 income.

Gold, the global currency in the end of the world, does not mean gold, but that every gold can be exchanged for one kilogram of standard rations from an exchange controlled by the authorities.

As for the euros and US knives used in the past, they have long become waste paper.

Although the banking system and communication network have been restored, the cost is not low and ordinary people cannot afford it.

In summer, I bought a satellite phone with the most basic model in the city because I had to go out of the city every day. This thing is a bit like the feature phone from that time. It is quite black and big, and can only be used to make phone calls and send and receive text messages.

If you want to use satellite data, you still need to pay an expensive traffic fee, and this function is not enabled in summer.

When I left the metal recycling company in summer, the new young employee today asked his senior in surprise: "Who is this person? I can earn twenty-seven gold in a day? I only earn forty gold in a month."

The old employee disagreed and said, "What's this? He is the best scavenger in the city in summer. Twenty-seven gold is just an average of him. At most, I remember that he brought back high-end metal worth more than one hundred gold and carried it with a huge military backpack of 80 liters."

"Making 100 gold a day? It's too awesome to do his job as a scavenger?" the new employee exclaimed with wide eyes.

One hundred gold is enough for ordinary people to spend three months on food and drink. These days, the general salary for work is very low, only thirty or forty gold per month. The income of a day in summer can catch up with ordinary people for two or three months.

The old employee smiled and tapped the young man's head and said, "You're jealous of the income in summer? Why not go and see those evolutionary warriors, who can earn tens of thousands of dollars a month? How capable are you to eat now and do your work honestly."

Leaving the metal recycling company, I bought two kilograms of pork hind legs in a food supply store in summer, with a unit price of eleven gold and a kilogram of rice, a unit price of one gold, and a few vegetables and an apple, and another gold was spent.

Young people in metal recycling companies only see summer income, but do not understand their appetite. Two kilograms of pork are already his minimum daily diet. Because of this, although the income in summer is high, they have a deposit.

In summer, I live in a five-story western household in an old-fashioned community in the city. I live with him as a family named Lu.

In the spring of the second year of the outbreak of the insect tide, the military announced the 28 Evolutionary Articles, formally establishing the right of the Evolutionary Class to overtake ordinary people.

As the strongest combat force of the human race in the apocalypse, the evolvers are a typical privileged class, living in luxurious special zones, while ordinary people can only live in crowded and dilapidated ordinary residential areas like summer.

According to the regulations of the authorities, the per capita living area of ​​ordinary people shall not exceed ten square meters.

So, in summer, I had to take in Lu's family.

Now it seems that this is not a bad thing. Lu Xiaoqiao, the daughter of the Lu family, is a very beautiful and kind girl. Her father is disabled, her mother is weak and sickly, and she also has a younger brother who is eight or nine years old.

If it weren't for summer, the family would probably not be able to survive the cruel end of the world. Lu's family was grateful for this.

"Brother Summer! Brother Summer is back!"

The one who opened the door was Lu Xiaobei. He is now eleven years old and has a head taller than before.

Xia Ji smiled and touched his head, putting the food he bought on the table.

Lu Xiaoqiao's mother came up with a smile, "Xiaobei, pour tea for your brother Xia, I'll go to the kitchen to cook."

Lu Xiaobei carefully brought Xia Fei a cup of tea, but did not leave, but lay next to Xia Ji, like a greedy kitten.

"Give."

Xia Qi took out two fruit candies from his pocket, and Xiaobei cheered, ran to the kitchen and took out a knife, carefully divided the candies into four parts, put a small piece in his mouth, and then made a tsk sound.

"Don't spoil Xiaobei too much. It's not easy to have a meal these days. Why spend money randomly?" Lu Xiaoqiao's mother said in the kitchen.

Xia Ji smiled and said nothing.

After drinking a cup of tea, he returned to his own room in summer.

In summer, I sat at the table and lit a cigarette and slowly smoked it.

It is hard to tell who helped whom. Xiaji gave food to Lu's family, and Lu's family gave meticulous care to Xiaji. Since Lu's family moved in, they have not even washed a sock for Xiaji, and the house is always cleaned.

Every summer when going out, Lu Xiaoqiao's mother would make a bento for him for a day. It was delicious and much better than squatting alone in the ruins and gnawing cold canned food in summer.

After his parents were in a car accident in summer, he had been living alone. Now, he has felt the warmth of home again. In this cold and gloomy apocalypse, the feeling of home is particularly precious.

There is a blank form on the table, and this year's Evolution Warrior Assessment Application Form. In summer, I picked up the form and looked at it, and put it back.

Come to the mirror, unbuttoned your shirt in summer to reveal your thin but strong body.

Anyone can't help but exclaim when they see summer bodies, because in summer there is a dark left arm, with red in black and black in red, which is a huge difference from the normal arm.

For three years, Summer has kept its secrets.

No one knows that he has always been an evolutionist, and he is the highest-level, zombie-type ultimate evolutionist.

That happened two days before the outbreak of the insect tide. A zombie drove a shabby starship to the earth.

The zombie was pitch black all over, and her muscles and skin were harder than the three-titanium alloy. Even machine guns or rockets could not be shot, causing huge panic on the earth.

As a delivery guy, he was on the way to deliver food in summer and was frightened to death by the sudden appearance of this zombie.

The zombie grabbed Xia Ji's left arm and let out an indescribable roar at him.

His strength was great, and he grabbed the summer's arms, and his black nails penetrated deep into the summer's flesh, and red blood flowed out.

At this moment, the subsequent military launched a fierce attack on the zombies.

A crooked rocket exploded around Xia Qi, and shrapnel cut off Xia Qi's left arm and made him unconscious.

When Summer woke up, the zombie was dead and he was taken to the hospital.

The doctor didn't know that the arm of summer was scratched by zombies, and through surgery, he picked up the arm of summer, which was scratched by zombies.

After that, Xia Qi's left arm became darker, and he also gained some special abilities to understand the zombie's language.

Later, when I watched the video of the arrival of zombies in summer, I realized that he was not here to invade the earth at all, but to cross the Milky Way to warn the earth that the Zerg was about to invade and darkness was about to come.

The dead zombies said that humans will also evolve with the outbreak of insect tides, and two warriors with completely different styles emerged.

Evolutionary warriors are relatively easy to generate and are numerous.

But zombie-type evolvers are dark evolution, with violent gene mutations. Not only will their bodies become dry and stiff like zombies, but their language, brain thinking patterns, and perception abilities will become different from ordinary people.

If there are three such warriors on a planet, it will be enough to resist the fierce insect tide. If there are five such warriors, the Zerg can be driven out of the planet where they live.

The dead zombie said that his planet had only two dark evolvers, so they failed and the Zerg captured his planet.

In the last stage of his life, he crossed the Milky Way to the Earth, but he didn't want to see the Earthlings repeat the same mistakes.

In short, it was such a bizarre experience that gave Xia Qi a dark left arm that looked very much like the Kirin arm.

With this left arm with dark power, summer can actually become a privileged class in this end of the world.

But he has his own difficulties. No matter how strong his left arm is, people cannot know. Every day he has to wear long-sleeved clothes and gloves. The road to warriors can only be achieved by relying on his right arm, which does not have the power of darkness.

Put the cigarette butts out, pick up the Junior Evolution application form again in summer and sign your name on the form with a signature pen.

Applicant, summer.

ps: Brothers, I am very sorry. When Jiuer examined the previous chapters, he found that the story before the end of the world was very abrupt. Since it was some stories after the end of the world, there was no need to write down how the insect tide broke out.

So, Jiuer decided to make a little modification, delete all the seventeen chapters before the outbreak of the end of the world, and start over.

I didn’t sleep all night last night and my hair fell off one by one, so I made this difficult decision. I hope everyone can understand.
Chapter completed!
