Chapter 861: Chapter 377 Broadcast

Lin Wu stated seriously, "We come from the Blue Star, a thousand years in the future. Before Earth was destroyed by zombies, our ancestors left on a spaceship. My seven companions and I are interstellar Guardians. During a mission, we were caught in a wormhole, and due to the influence of dark energy, our ship appeared on a different timeline, which is Earth, even with the zombie virus outbreak."

Lin Wu continued, "We need 180 days to return to our own timeline. To us, you and everyone else here are already dead."

"Ha ha." Xiao Wu laughed uncontrollably, then suddenly stopped and pointed his gun at Lin Wu: "Is that so? Future human, do you have any proof?"

Unfazed, Lin Wu replied, "I can introduce you to a fully systematized Blue Star, from education, medical care, law, to social conditions; whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you. Unless you think I can make up a whole planetary system on the spot."

Xiao Wu skeptically asked, "Is Earth destroyed?"

Lin Wu answered, "No, it’s humanity that’s been wiped out, the humans on Earth."

Xiao Wu asked, "How many wives can one marry on Blue Star?"

"What kind of question is that?"

"Just asking."

Lin Wu explained, "Legally, it’s monogamous, and there are strong legal constraints. However, as long as you don’t get married, the law can’t do anything."

"I’m thinking about what to ask." Xiao Wu, not understanding wormholes and dark energy, thought for a moment and then asked, "You said you have seven companions, what are their names?"

Lin Wu, listing them off, said, "They might have already evacuated the city, or might still be in the city. The radio is the only way to know their situation. That’s why I need to go to the Handsome Hotel. If I miss 8 o’clock, I can’t meet up with them."

Xiao Wu asked, "Do humans have souls?"

Lin Wu replied, "The answer is known, but no one knows the answer."

"Are you messing with me?"

"Of course not. To explain this question, I have to first talk about Dawn." Lin Wu gave a comprehensive introduction to Dawn, saying, "Dawn knows the answer, but it won’t tell humans. Is that okay? If so, I would like to check my new home, set up obstacles nearby, scavenge for food, and analyze information. This place is just a temporary stop; we will have to leave eventually."

A bit embarrassed, Xiao Wu put away his gun and asked, "How do we start? I want to do something." This would help him digest what Lin Wu had said, and ease the deep sorrow buried in his heart. He mourned not just for Xiao Mei, but for all humanity.

Lin Wu knew exactly what needed to be done: "We need food, water, medicine... to make a simple alarm. Most importantly, we need to listen to the radio."

Xiao Wu asked, "Can you take me with you after 180 days?" He was now basically convinced of Lin Wu’s authenticity, or else Lin Wu was a brilliant fiction writer.

Lin Wu replied, "I can’t, but at that time we can pinpoint the location of a shelter, and try to get you inside. Whether or not you can be one of the 500,000 people evacuated from Earth is not for us to decide."

"Okay." Xiao Wu pulled out his phone and looked at the screen, then suddenly burst into tears, sobbing, "Even if I inform my parents now, can they not be saved?"

"Not necessarily," Lin Wu said. "According to what we know, at that time Earth was divided into infected zones and quarantine zones. It was only under the gradual encroachment of the quarantine zones that people were forced to migrate into space. There were still survivors in the infected zones at the time of migration, some notable survivor gatherings being at Starlight Base, Snow Pine Base, and others. However, centuries later when Blue Star sent robots to scout Earth, it was basically confirmed that humanity had been wiped out. By then, the zombies had also naturally died off."

Lin Wu added, "I’m not good at lying, so if it were me, I wouldn’t make the call. Because your parents would also worry whether you’ve gone mad."

Xiao Wu deeply agreed; in the apocalypse, the most critical thing is making others believe you, something that only seeing with their own eyes can achieve, but by then it’s too late.

The advantage for Lin Wu and his group was their ability to predict the future.

The RV was located to the southwest, the main gate to the east, zombies continually entering and exiting the gate, seemingly taking over the guards’ duty to watch the gate. Now, the only person left to save was the fat guard. Xiao Wu mentioned this to Lin Wu, who was noncommittal and just responded with, "If you want to go, go," then went back to his work.

Why hadn’t they gone before? The reason was the same: before the appearance of zombies, Xiao Wu could not possibly convince the fat guard, who might even have chased him out.

There was a lot to do, starting with finding a drivable car. Lin Wu found an SUV, with the keys just laying on the seat. After trying to start it and drive, everything was normal except for the low tire pressure. Next was pumping oil, transferring gasoline from other cars into the SUV and the RV. As long as there was fuel, the RV’s equipment could be used.

After filling up both vehicles, Lin Wu continued extracting oil, using the fuel tanks of two nearby cars as storage tanks. Then Xiao Wu returned and sat down, rubbing his slick, shiny hair with a look of utter dejection on his face, obviously a bad outcome.

Lin Wu stated, "There’s still a lot of work to do."

Xiao Wu weakly said, "To you, we are history, but to me, we’re not. Can you give me some time?"

Lin Wu didn’t answer but continued his work, drawing another barrel of oil and adding it to the RV’s fuel tank. The radio, tuned properly, crackled to life with Shana’s voice: "Hello, hello, it’s me, three people fell behind, implementing Plan B, location is the 15th floor of Golden Sea Cottage in the suburbs,_expected stay of one to two weeks. Repeat, three people fell behind... Next scheduled call time is 8 PM."
