Chapter 1151 – [Girl Apocalypse Journey]

This Ruri was quite old. No, just because she’s old doesn’t mean she’s just an aunt in her 30s or 40s, she was Ruri in her early and mid-20s.

When I usually meet Ruri, I met them when they were quite young……. If you look at Yongruri, their appearance is that of middle school or high school students.

Of course, that was the first meeting, but it didn’t mean I didn’t see the old Ruri. Because by the time Mad Max Lurie died, she was old.

“Hello Ruri!!!!”

“I can’t do it!!!!”

“Wow!!! Do all the Ruri greet like that?”

“No, otoke know!!!!”

“Ruris are all like that, right?”

Although there is an age difference, Eden and Ruri, who are not so different on the outside, have been hit hard since their first meeting. Looking at things like that, Ruri wants to be Ruri.

Even if the world is different and her personal disposition is different, Ruri is Ruri. No, as I said it, it seemed like the gestalt collapse of the word Ruri would come.

“But it’s extremely cold here. The location is Busan, so why is it so cold?”

“Even though it’s Busan, it’s ruined because it’s this cold. Places like North Korea have long since frozen.”

“How did you ruin it?”

“Do you want to hear it?”

“I want to hear it, but it’s a bit too much to say here. Would you like to move first?”

“Let’s go to where I’m staying. Oh, and one thing before that”

“What?”

Cluelessly, Ruri looked around at Shion, Eden, and Eve.

“You look like a foreigner, but don’t call yourself an American.”

“Looks like it was destroyed because of the United States. Why did it die?”

“Those Yankees are really fucking”

“Uh huh, don’t curse at me when you have kids. You learn by watching.”

“You’re such a fucking dog!!!!”

“Hey dude!!!!!”

We decided to move from place to place. The sun is up, but it’s colorless, and the environment here is so cold that if you don’t wear thick clothes, you’ll freeze to death in 10 minutes.

First of all, I wore thick clothes because it was said to be an ice age…But it was cold. Of course, not many of us get cold.

I move to this place following Luri. He gathers people and leads a community of survivors, so he must have his own base. It was enough to talk leisurely there.

It was quite a distance from here to Ruri’s base, but no one had a hard time marching. People.

“It’s cold!!! It’s cold!!! It’s cold!”

“That kitten is whining so much. Yes, prepare to cook nyangnyangtang.”

[Is cat meat delicious?]

“Kyaaaaa!!!!”

To be honest, cat meat smells so bad that it’s hard to eat unless you’re good at cooking. In the first place, most carnivores, such as carnivores, do. Oh, bear paws are delicious.

Anyway, as I moved along with Ruri, I started to see something that stood out. Something that emits hazy smoke in the distance…….. Heat sources are important in a situation like this, so it’s only natural to burn something and emit smoke, but that wasn’t the case.

“I know that!!! Homer Simpson works!!!!!”

“Nuclear power plant?!”

“Ohh, you’re writing pretty good stuff”

I wondered how they were surviving in this situation, but it seems that they were using an entire nuclear power plant as a base. Of course, there was only one chimney from which smoke came out, as if not all were used.

But is that okay? Something like radiation? There may be some protection, but the possibility of being exposed to radiation is not zero, right?

“Wouldn’t it be better to be a mutant than to be frozen?”

“Are you all or nothing?”

Humans do anything to survive. No matter how much radiation it was, it was better than freezing to death right away.

In addition, considering energy efficiency and power generation, nuclear power was a good choice. If it is a technology similar to our Earth, it was difficult to find more options in this world now.

“I’ve done some work, and it’s quite efficient than the technology here. The Ruri-Ruri network doesn’t exist for nothing.”

Ruri are not stupid, and there is a Ruri-Ruri Network through which they can communicate. The main server is God-Ruri-Ruri, so there are censorship and such things, but it is still a place where you can exchange information, find out what you need from each other, or share opinions.

Thanks to that, it is possible for Luri to overturn the world with various techniques if they want to. It’s just that they’re not interested.

If the world hadn’t collapsed, Ruri, too, wouldn’t have formed a group or anything like that. Wouldn’t she have lived moderately, met a good husband, married and lived?

As we approached the nuclear power plant, we saw that a barricade had been erected around it. It is an object made to prevent outside intruders.

And there are people standing guard at the barricades. It seems that they have prepared themselves by setting up a guard post and even putting an electric stove there.

“Ah!!! Captain Ruri!!!”

“I brought my acquaintances. Open the door.”

“Yeah, I understand… Huh?”

The guards reacted to the appearance of some of our personnel, including Shion.

There are people who are surprised by their appearance, but on the other hand, there are people who have shown hostility and vigilance. He also had a gun, so not pointing the gun at him didn’t cross the line.

“Are you a foreigner?”

“I’m not American, so it’s okay.”

“If Captain Ruri is like that…”

Guards open barricades. We were able to enter Ruri’s base in the back of the nuclear power plant.

Based on my gut feeling, the number of survivors is significant. I’m guessing it’s roughly 2,3,000 people…… This seems to be quite a lot among the survivor community.

Maybe it’s because of Ruri. Since the person involved has the ability, no matter how geeky Ruri is, people flock to her. Survival, or will you put up with the leader being an eccentric, though capable?

In the post-apocalypse, you have to give up a lot. Even humanity is included in the dog, so the world is miserable.

“Captain Ruri!!! The corn grown in the greenhouse this time has sprouted!!!”

“It’s great. Grow it diligently. Don’t spare it because we’ve got something like fertilizer.”

“Captain!!! Energy production this week…”

“Please make it into a report later and upload it.”

“All right!!!”

Unlike her eccentric personality, Ruri was very competent. No, if you are not competent in the first place, there is no way a community like this will roll.

“It’s amazing. Ruri is serious.”

“They were serious when they were serious.”

“Are you dissing someone right in front of you? Anyway, come this way. I’ll show you to my room.”

The place where Ruri entered was a place where an entire building was occupied. It was not a simple building, but it seemed that the place used here as a rest area for employees was renovated separately.

It’s quite wide, but to use a place like this alone, it seemed like he was the one who led this community.

“I only have instant coffee, but would you like some?”

“If you give it, drink it thank you”

“The fact that you serve hot water to drink here means that you are such an important guest.”

“It deserves it”

It takes fire to boil water. It is difficult to light a fire under these circumstances.

Fuel is a consumed resource. In particular, simple bonfires are inefficient, so they cannot be used for long in this era. In order to survive, they needed something to power a heat source, such as a power plant, in some way.

“By the way, the response to Americans was harsh. Why is that? Is it related to the cause of extinction?”

“Well, it takes a little longer to explain that.”

“Take it easy”

“Okay”

While enjoying the taste of the sweet instant coffee, Ruri started talking slowly. It is the cause of the destruction of this world.

In fact, for humanity to perish due to the environment, it is either just a natural phenomenon or human self-inflicted gain. The latter in this case. I wonder what kind of foolish thing it would have been.

“This side of Earth was in a state where much of the Arctic ice cap melted due to global warming and the sea level rose rapidly. Thanks to that, each country thought of a way to lower the global temperature.”

“Oh, I know this. It was the prologue of Snowpiercer!!!!!”

“Eden, let’s listen to the end.”

“And researchers have invented a special drug to lower global temperatures”

“No, it was really Snowpiercer?!”

Somehow, the repertoire is similar?! Where is the train that runs forever!!!! Honestly, the fun of the human groups shown on such a train is great!!!!

Since the story came out at that point, I guessed the cause of the destruction.

“Then, did that happen because the drug was developed in the United States?”

“No, it was developed by England. However, to spread the drug, global cooperation was needed, so the recipe was distributed.”

“……Could it be the United States?”

“Right”

Ruri told me the cause of the end of this world with an embarrassed expression.

“This world is doomed by idiots who use imperial instead of metric.”

Seriously, it’s one of the most idiotic demise reasons I’ve ever seen in a post-apocalyptic world.

*        *    *

In the United States, the English pound method is still used. Well, because of that, a spaceship was blown up and repaired, but it is not easy to change a unit that has permeated deep into society.

For reference, the gallon is the unit used to measure volume in the imperial method, and when converted to liters, it is about 3.785 liters. That’s almost a 4x difference.

Roughly speaking, 1,000 liters of the special solution should be sprayed, but the Americans sprayed close to 4,000 liters. Since I sprayed several times the amount, it was natural that the effect would be too great.

The earth, which should have only dropped a few degrees, reached below zero. Now, it has become a land of severe cold where the temperature of the video cannot be expected.

“It was frozen in an instant. No matter how bad the weather in Korea is, they say there is no middle ground, but actually there are days like spring or autumn weather. But this time it was summer, and the temperature dropped below zero overnight and two days later it dropped to several tens of degrees below zero. Lost”

“Then everyone will freeze to death”

“Especially in the case of Busan, it is a hot region because it is originally from the south. So there are many deaths because they are not well prepared for the cold weather. Many of the people here are not from Busan, but people who came down to find a warm place.”

“It’s not worth it”

“When the situation came to this, I quickly identified the location of the nuclear power plant in Korea and identified the best one among them. And before the situation worsened, I prepared a weapon like a gun and came down to the south and took control of the nuclear power plant.”

“Something like a gun?”

“I robbed a military base. I was a senior in high school at the time.”

“Combat power of 3 special forces……!!!!”

Besides, since it’s Ruri, it’s not strange to multiply that by 10. Then it wouldn’t be strange if Ruri alone had the fighting power of 30 special forces.

Luri here hadn’t mastered this ability. He seems probably undercooked. No matter how God-Ruriru’s family is, they are beings born on this planet. If Gaia of this star does not allow this ability, she cannot use this ability.

“I suffered 10 times more because of that, but if you think about it, it’s 10 times more comfortable. If you think that people who use this ability live in this era, living hell will unfold.”

“It’s a problem even if society is maintained, but it’s something to know what it will be like in a collapsed state.”

“Anyway, I took control of this nuclear power plant and gathered survivors. I nurtured and led this community for several years.”

When I said it was stable to a certain extent, it didn’t roll for 1 or 2 years, but for several years. Well, if you look at what he’s grown since he was in his third year of high school, it’s definitely been a few years.

Ruri was young but capable. When he was serious, he was serious enough that he could have created a community like this.

I haven’t seen much, but this level of community is quite high. In particular, supplying power through nuclear power is a very good advantage. If it is a nuclear power plant, no matter how bad it is, there is no problem in the long term because only a few thousand people are using the power to supply the city.

Well, I don’t know if the equipment gets old after about a few decades. I’ll have to see it until then.

“Hey, Keter. How long do you think this planet will be ice age? You’re an expert at this.”

[Well, there are many variables to answer accurately, but about 50 years?]

“It’s fucking long!!!! I don’t even have the confidence to last that long!!!!”

If this extreme weather continues for about 50 years, humans will be on the brink of extinction. Even now, there are not that many survivors.

We do not know what will happen if the nuclear power plant is operated in the meantime. It may be okay to some extent because it is not in full operation, but if you operate it for that long, it is not strange if there are any problems.

If there is a problem, I wonder if I will die from the radiation exposure before freezing to death. If it gets that bad, I’ll close it and go find another place.

“But isn’t there a problem right now?”

“That’s because the old man just came. There’s a problem that’s really annoying me, but I’m leaving it there because it’s hard for me to deal with it…”

“A faction problem?”

“That or what?

“Rather, that’s how it happens. Humans are creatures that come up with other thoughts when they have time to spare.”

“For some reason, he kept his mouth shut when he was hunting down looters.”

No matter how capable Ruri is, her age is young. I have a lot of knowledge, but I don’t have enough time to accumulate wisdom, so there are things I don’t know.

Besides, Ruri is young for a woman. Although she showed results through her resourcefulness, she has some bullies who only want to eat the results.

Just as we were about to talk about it, we hear a commotion from outside. As I figured out through my senses, dozens of people gathered outside and were approaching this place while chatting.

The turmoil was caused by a dispute with those who prevented them. There’s no reason to do that, so maybe the source of this is us.

“Tsk, look at them saying they like it and coming to bite them because they have something to complain about. Even hyenas won’t come out right away like this.”

“You are suffering too.”

“Do you know why I called you Uncle?”

“Can I do it according to my personality?”

“Let me go through the procedures. If you don’t even do that, the community’s discipline won’t be properly maintained.”

“I’ll give you respect”

I know, in a world like this, if you don’t rule with an iron fist, there will only be trouble. Of course, if you don’t release it to some extent, it’s important to get up and ride well between them, but the result of failure is the people outside.

Openly rebelling against the ruler and leader of this place, Ruri, means that they have created a faction that cannot be ignored to some extent. From Ruri’s point of view, it would be difficult to deal with the cancer inside her body even if she tore the external enemy to pieces.

And those cancerous lumps eventually spread and kill people. So I had to cut it before that.

Just as Joong couldn’t cut her own hair, it must have been difficult for Ruri to do it with her own hands. So you helped me

This is my specialty. Eden is watching, so I don’t think I’ll be able to openly buy it.

“Come on, let’s go~ What kind of child is doing tricks?”

I suddenly remember that.

Freeze your arm on Snowpiercer and break it!!!
