The Diary of a Female Zombie’s Hiking Adventure

Chapter 114

When Liu Nian received Yu Qingxian's video message, she was naturally a bit shocked.

She didn't expect the other person could actually set off fireworks.

And it was at night too.

It's known that zombies' hearing and vision increase exponentially at night.

And various zombie birds too.

Zombies can be deterred by walls, but not zombie birds.

These days, humans are researching installing a kind of cover over their bases.

If zombie birds attack, they can activate the cover.

But such a cover can only work for a small range.

For an entire base, the coverage area would be too large.

With current technology, it's impossible to achieve.

However, Liu Nian's sister said she would try her best, so Liu Nian thought that when she grows up, she would also work hard to research and develop it, as she wants to become a scientist.

Yu Qingxian received Liu Nian's text reply.

The little girl first thanked Yu Qingxian, then mentioned her New Year's wish, and reminded her to stay safe.

Because Yu Qingxian didn't specify her age or gender.

So Liu Nian simply called her brother, sister, uncle, aunt, and so on.

This made Yu Qingxian laugh.

Of course, Yu Qingxian only replied with an encouragement and didn't say anything else.

After extinguishing the fire on the rooftop, Yu Qingxian prepared to go downstairs.

A few zombie birds also flew onto the opposite rooftop, but they seemed to have not noticed any living beings and just perched there.

Yu Qingxian went downstairs and took out her phone to check the temperature.

She found that the temperature had risen again.

Thinking about it, this cold wave should be ending soon.

As the New Year just began, Yu Qingxian naturally hoped that things would get better for humanity.

But reality, of course, is impossible.

Around 4am, Yu Qingxian saw a bright light coming from the sky above.

This should no longer be considered a shooting star.

It should be a meteorite.

Just not sure where this meteorite landed.

Yu Qingxian watched as the bright light streaked across the eastern sky and disappeared over the horizon.

However, she didn't hear the sound of the meteorite hitting the ground.

It must be really far away.

Just as Yu Qingxian thought that being able to see a meteorite strike the ground in her lifetime would be fulfilling.

Of course, it's best if it hits an uninhabited area.

But when the second and third ones came crashing down, Yu Qingxian felt that things weren't that simple.

Especially since one of them felt like it was coming straight down on top of her.

Even though it seemed to be heading right towards her, it still passed by her location and went northward.

Until that meteorite disappeared, Yu Qingxian wasn't sure if it would land within the country's territory or not.

But it didn't seem to be very large.

About twenty minutes later, Yu Qingxian felt the ground vibrate slightly.

Followed by a strong gust of wind that quickly died down.

Yu Qingxian's phone also rang at this time.

It was a message from the authorities.

It said that eighteen meteorites were detected to have landed on Earth.

One of them landed in the northern border region of the country, and currently there were no domestic casualties or signal disruptions reported.

As for whether more meteorites would appear, no further observations were made yet.

Yu Qingxian thought of something and took out her atlas, zooming out until she saw the global map.

On it were marked eighteen red exclamation points.

These should indicate the locations where the meteorites landed.

And the one that landed in the country was about 400 kilometers away from her.

Which means she might be the closest to this meteorite.

Thinking of this, Yu Qingxian naturally wanted to go take a look.

But with a meteorite landing, the authorities would definitely take action.

Yu Qingxian didn't know how big a meteorite would have to be to cause an impact 400 kilometers away.

But the strong wind that reached this city was probably around a Level 7 or 8 wind.

As for the temperature, Yu Qingxian couldn't feel it very well.

But when she went outside, she noticed that the snow and ice on the ground showed signs of melting.

So the temperature must have been quite high.

Yu Qingxian checked the temperature on her phone, which was around 3°C at the time.

In other words, the heat wave from the meteorite impact had instantly raised the temperature in this area by 20 to 30 degrees.

However, after the wind passed, the temperature was steadily dropping.

It dropped about 6 to 7 degrees in just ten minutes.

By 5am, the temperature had dropped back to around -20°C and stopped decreasing.

After watching the temperature for a while, Yu Qingxian immediately went to check on the Tyrannosaurus rex.

When she saw it, she found that it seemed fine, which relieved her.

It's just that Yu Qingxian couldn't tell if it had been affected in any way.

Yu Qingxian kept it inside for several hours, and after confirming that the Tyrannosaurus rex appeared to have no issues, she still couldn't put her mind at ease.

After all, some things might not show any reaction in just a few short hours.

Like in the many videos she had watched, changes often occurred gradually, or problems showed up in later generations.

However, after observing it for a few days, the Tyrannosaurus rex didn't seem to feel unwell anywhere.

Moreover, after the meteorite landed, the temperature did indeed rise.

From the previous -20°C, it had now warmed up to 1 or 2°C above freezing.

The ice that might not have melted for half a year was slowly melting too.

Yu Qingxian looked at her snow boots and finally changed into rain boots.

Because now that the ice and snow were melting, any low-lying areas were covered in a layer of water.

Yu Qingxian was also a little worried about the Tyrannosaurus rex's feet being constantly soaked in the icy water, but fortunately, it was intelligent enough to always walk on higher ground.

Trying its best to avoid letting its feet get soaked.

Besides, this area was already quite elevated, so the water just flowed downstream along the rivers.

With so much ice melting into water, Yu Qingxian felt that the downstream areas would probably experience flooding again.

But the authorities should also be able to anticipate this.

Looking at the map, the base locations were not in low-lying areas prone to flooding.

Around early March, Yu Qingxian did indeed see an official convoy heading towards the meteorite landing site.

Yu Qingxian and the Tyrannosaurus rex avoided them and traveled stealthily, but the closer they got to that area, the more official personnel they encountered.

Because Yu Qingxian had already left the base's signal range, she couldn't receive any information.

So she didn't know exactly how many people were in this area.

It wasn't until March that Yu Qingxian and the Tyrannosaurus rex managed to sneakily reach the meteorite landing site.

This place was located at the border between Q Province and N Province.

However, she had originally thought it would be like other meteorites, where she would only see a meteorite crater, while the meteorite itself had shattered.

After all, falling from such a great height, it was bound to have broken into pieces.

But when she saw the jet-black meteorite lying intact in the meteorite crater, she experienced a momentary system crash in her brain.

This didn't conform to the rules!

But then she thought, if she herself had turned into a zombie while retaining human consciousness, this world no longer needed to be judged by previous common sense.

So Yu Qingxian didn't dwell on the fact that this meteorite was intact and hadn't scattered into pieces everywhere.

Yu Qingxian surveyed the area with her binoculars but couldn't see Gu Wanqing.

She didn't know if Gu Wanqing hadn't arrived yet or had already come and left.

But she noticed that among these people, there seemed to be one in a leadership position, a young girl who appeared to be only eighteen or nineteen years old.

Although she was very young, the people around her seemed to listen to her and showed no resentment at being commanded by someone younger than themselves.

Yu Qingxian thought, this must be a genius among geniuses!
