[Additionally, due to the chaos in the comment section, I want to clarify that the author did not plagiarize. I am merely paying homage to my favorite work, "Apocalypse", by using the same setting.]
Chu River: ...
Subway.
Old man.
Cell phone.
——In short, just one comprehensive face.
You’re telling me that’s not plagiarism? Just say you’re writing fanfiction!
She suppressed her bias, refrained from commenting on the blurb, and instead opened the main text to see what these 1.2 million words were about.
The main text starts on point, with the opening of the eyes revealing the Spiritual Spring Space. The next Chapter has them recognizing their owner with a drop of blood, and in the following Chapter, Song You is successfully discovered by the rescue team and brought into the base from her past life.
Red Star 24.
...
In short, Song You encounters her enemy from her previous life, Li Chang’an, who caused her death, but at the same time, she sees her dream hero, Lei Yu.
Relying on the Spiritual Spring Space, she successfully collaborates with Lei Yu.
Lei Yu truly deserves the title of hero; he’s not only willing to spend points to buy part of the food in her Spiritual Spring Space but also promises various protections and conveniences. Moreover, he’s selfless and decides to donate these to the base...
Song You has never met such an upright and selfless man; at this moment, she can’t help but be emotionally swayed.
So, to show sincerity in cooperation and her subtle affection, and partly to ensure Lei Yu takes her more seriously, she hands Lei Yu a cup of tea mixed with three drops of Spiritual Spring Water after their cooperation ends.
The Spiritual Spring can improve physical fitness, enhance superpower, and make people stronger; her intentions are good.
In the apocalypse, water resources are precious, and it was poured right in front of him, so Lei Yu did not refuse. However, Song You forgot one thing——
The sense of smell of the flying insects is so strong that not a single blade of grass dares to grow in the open air around the entire base.
...
Without even giving people a chance to react, a massive army of flying insects swooped down, and satellite monitoring detected that the flying insects from the surrounding four provinces also swarmed out.
The Red Star 24 Base went into emergency defense; men, women, and children all started exterminating the insects, but sadly, too many insects came too quickly.
And human energy is limited.
Ultimately, before the insect extermination plan even started, it had already failed.
Because the Spiritual Spring was already drunk by Lei Yu, without a trace of scent leaking, he also couldn’t sense anything, thus not knowing what was going on.
But the frantic flying insects, finding no other place to go, abandoned their usual swift approaches and frantically searched along all paths. Eventually, they discovered the deeply buried seed vault, animal breeding ground, and the agricultural base.
These are the invaluable reserves left with no small effort, holding hope for all humankind.
The calamity led to even sparrows outside starving to death, yet they managed to conserve these pitiful lives with equally precious resources before the drought fully struck.
Because everyone knew that a Mountain and Sea Star with only humans left has no future.
...
A base like this requires a national effort just to create one. The entire country has only three, and each one is different.
Were it not for the trust in Li Chang’an, and Red Star 24 Base being the Central Plains hub, the land of fish and rice, none of these three special institutions would have stayed here.
But now, everything’s over.
The flying insects from four provinces swarmed out, frantically searching, gnawing through even five-meter-thick outer walls...
Base leader Li Chang’an, before dying, learned to use spiritual power, barely maintaining a shield, but ultimately could only protect the 15 kinds of basic crop seeds and a lamb beneath him.
Red Star 24 Base, completely fallen.
Few survived, most died of exhaustion, others from attacks by the frantic insects.
The relatively lucky survivors, seeing the seed vault and other places attacked, had their remaining hopes utterly crushed.
Amid utter despair, after a day and night of gnawing, the insects departed full, further growing in numbers.
This brief day gave even other provinces no chance to secure a new water source.
The entirety of Zheng Country was significantly weakened.
...
With global crises frequently arising, after struggling for 45 hard years, humanity on Mountain and Sea Star finally met its end.
In the final moments, top Thunder Ability User Lei Yu and top Space System Ability User Song You took on humanity’s last mission——
[With humanity’s gene bank, containing all human history and civilization, they built a spaceship with all the nation’s power, hoping that in the vast universe, they could find another home for the hope-abandoned entirety of humankind.]
