Global Wasteland: I Obtained A Top Tier Shelter-Chapter 771 - 507 The Sixth Disaster Begins! _2

Bai had long gone to rest with Xiaomeng and the others, so tonight, Lin Yue was rare to find himself alone.

"Disaster... is coming again."

Lin Yue closed the hatch and lay down on the soft mat.

The mental exhaustion had long made him drowsy. Although he no longer had to open the treasure chests himself, the process of collecting them was equally tiring.

Especially since the flames he made turned the area outside the shelter into a sea of treasure chests in a very short time.

If the fuel hadn’t run out, Lin Yue felt that even in ten days, his robotic dogs wouldn’t be able to finish picking up those treasure chests.

It wasn’t until quite recently that he managed to clear out all the water and food from the wooden treasure chests.

Moreover, to save time and effort, he directly put together a "Food Peace Pack" and "Water Peace Pack," selling them on the world channel in such a way that each refugee village could only buy one. He sold over five thousand of them.

Of course, he also collected a great deal of stone, wood, iron blocks, and other basic building materials.

Now, these items had been placed by Lin Yue in the large courtyard of the shelter, waiting to be dealt with after tomorrow’s disaster ends.

"Actually, now is indeed a good time to think about what needs to be done next."

All kinds of logistical stuff had basically been handed over to the Little Ice Lizards, and what he needed to do was simply go out and fight.

However, the lack of various materials had become a constraint and a bottleneck.

"There’s more than a little to be done, it feels like every day, there are countless things that need doing."

He had to manage the shelter, worry about various sub-bases, deal with the Lizardmen and the Wolf-headed Men, and there were also all sorts of rivalries and conflicts among the survivors.

Giant creatures hadn’t been seen for a long time, but the Mythical Giant Beasts had become a new enemy.

Although two had been taken down consecutively, in truth, even though the battles hadn’t lasted long, they weren’t easy.

In the Secret Realm, without the aid of the self-healing ability, he needed to be cautious about not getting severely injured, and he couldn’t prolong the battles to the point of physical exhaustion.

Comparatively speaking, the timing of this Otherworld’s disaster was now a bit easier.

It even made him feel like this was his most relaxed moment.

Lin Yue lay on the bed, feeling the time passing by, second by second.

Reflecting on the past nearly fifty days in the Otherworld, it felt incredibly fulfilling.

Fulfilling to the point where it made him feel exhausted.

Thanks to this self-healing ability, there was no physical exhaustion, but the mental fatigue was very real.

"On the world channel, it seems that people are pretty well-prepared for this disaster..."

Lin Yue flipped through the system tablet, looking at the reactions of various shelters on the world channel. They didn’t seem like before with the crying and whining, nor were many significantly affected by the disaster.

Indeed.

Having gone through several rounds of disasters consecutively, the survivors were now very familiar with the various disasters.

Also, they all had their different responses and strategies for dealing with these disasters.

From the initial panic during the blizzard disaster to the current calm displayed on the world chat channel by people from various refugee villages, Lin Yue felt the survivors had made tremendous progress.

The survivors were now getting more accustomed to life in this Otherworld. Although resources were scarce and there were vast differences compared to Earth, as time went by, they all became stronger, more resilient, and more composed.

"If we could truly unite and deal with the Lizardmen, the most lethal threat, there wouldn’t be much else to worry about." Lin Yue knew very well that humanity’s greatest threat still came from the underground creatures possessing some intelligence.

They were cruel and murderous, and extremely cunning.

Hiding deep underground made it incredibly difficult to eliminate them.

However, this didn’t mean they couldn’t be completely wiped out.

As long as all humanity came together, the Lizardmen wouldn’t stand a chance, right?

Lin Yue recalled the inconceivable battle Fei Yue had encountered yesterday.

He originally thought the person coming was Lily Kalahao, but from the world ranking scores, it seemed likely it was people from other refugee villages.

Lily Kalahao’s side seemed not to have been influenced at all, with their scores even five or six times higher than last time, which matched their rising trend.

Previously, the so-called "prisoner’s dilemma" by Fei Yue managed to reveal this; aside from Lily Kalahao’s refugee villages, most of the scores barely moved.

This already said a lot.

However, this left Lin Yue feeling quite puzzled.

Why had those refugee villages collectively attacked Fei Yue’s refugee village? How had they arrived at this desert?

Why were they able to link up with the Lizardmen and fight together?

Thinking about the weapons they had made Lin Yue find it even more incomprehensible.

With weapons, shouldn’t they be expanding their territory instead of fighting amongst themselves?

"Maybe Lily Kalahao contacted them, or simply controlled them to attack Fei Yue’s refugee village?"

The Lizardman issue might be Liu Kai’s responsibility, but as for the rest, Lin Yue could only suspect Lily Kalahao.

[Warning, the sixth disaster, comprising hyperoxygenation, drought, insect swarms, and a sandstorm, is about to descend! Warning, the sixth disaster, comprising hyperoxygenation, drought, insect swarms, and a sandstorm, is about to descend!]

[This disaster will last 12 hours!]

[Hyperoxygenation will cast the entire Otherworld into a cold wave! Drought will make plants highly flammable!]

[Insect swarms will launch indiscriminate attacks on humans, and sandstorms will bury inadequately protected refugee villages!]

[All Secret Realms will close simultaneously, and those staying inside will be forcibly ejected! They will refresh after the disaster ends!]

[More system functions will unlock after this disaster!]

[May everyone overcome the challenges!]

The system’s voice suddenly rang out.

In the noisy night, it sounded like a sudden clap of thunder.

At this moment, Lin Yue glanced at the group chat.

The disaster had officially begun.

This time, it would undoubtedly eliminate some unprepared survivors.

This is unavoidable.

Survival of the fittest is a natural law, just as this Otherworld, this survival game, holds as an iron rule.

The previous fifty billion people had, for various reasons, become sacrifices under this iron rule.

And most of those were the elderly, those unwilling to strive, and those who executed various decisions wrongly.

They too were quickly eliminated after the first or second disaster.

This also led to the significant population decrease, and those who remained, enduring until the sixth disaster, maintained a basic figure of around two billion.

It’s safe to say that those left could be considered the strongest individuals.

From the chat content on the world channel, it seemed that these people had also adapted to the Otherworld, to these disasters.

Switching off the lights inside the sleep chamber, Lin Yue closed his eyes.

The sleep chamber’s protective layer was highly soundproof, and once set up, it could almost shield everything from the outside.

This created a perfect condition for sleep.

Last night’s sleep near the Gate of Exploration was uncomfortable. If he had to rest in a place like that again, it was indeed necessary to prepare well just in case...

Wait a minute.

Lin Yue suddenly sat up.

Is the Gate of Exploration... still there?

He vaguely remembered there were some precautions mentioned after the last update!

He opened the system tablet and looked at the last announcement.

"Damn."

He laid down the system tablet.

Upon seeing the information about "no changes before the disaster," he realized that it seemed impossible to use the exploration gate within the shelter to reach the Wolf-headed Man’s valley again.

"I’ll have to gather intelligence to see if anyone else’s shelter has encountered the Wolf-headed Men... come to think of it, why hasn’t Fei Yue ever mentioned what’s in the exploration gate next to his refugee village?"

Lin Yue felt this inquiry seemed to be subtly directing him toward an answer.

At this moment, Fei Yue just sent a message on the chat panel.

"Lin Yue, have you rested?"

"Have you noticed? It seems there’s a big issue."
