I am in the last days, I can connect to reality

Chapter 950: Changes at the Hydropower Plant

On the other side, Qin Zhong left the smelting area angrily. When he arrived at the outskirts of the steel plant, Wang Boshen and others had all disappeared, and only a soldier with an anxious face remained.

The soldier looked worried and kept pacing back and forth. Only when Qin Zhong appeared menacingly did he stop and shout, "Brother Qin! Something's wrong! There's an accident at the hydroelectric power plant!"

"Something happened at the power plant? Tell me what happened!" Qin Zhong was shocked when he heard the soldier's words. The power plant is an extremely important place!

Not to mention the hydropower station near the base. After the power supply was restored, the entire Yiyang and the surrounding counties and cities were able to resume electricity use. The amount of water stored in this hydropower dam alone is an extremely terrifying number.

If something happens to this dam, I am afraid that the Yiyang base will suffer from floods. Therefore, if something really happens to the hydropower station, the consequences will definitely be catastrophic!

"I don't know either. I just heard someone from the hydropower plant arrive, and then Director Wang Xing summoned everyone to the conference room. He also told you to come over immediately after you come out."

Hearing Qin Zhong's question, the soldier hurriedly said, "They just passed by a few minutes ago. You should hurry over too."

"I see!"

After listening to the soldier's report, Qin Zhong didn't care about anything else. He nodded, jumped up, and ran towards the meeting room at an extremely fast speed.

Since he had clearly ordered that no one should disturb the strengthening process, when something happened, Wang Boshen could only summon Zhou Luosen, Lan Ziqing and others to discuss countermeasures.

However, since Wang Boshen did not forcibly call him out of the smelting area, it seems that things are not so bad that they cannot be reversed.

Thinking of this, Qin Zhong couldn't help but relax a little, and at the same time accelerated again. He turned into a stream of light and rushed to the door of the conference room.

"Damn it! I didn't expect something like this would happen after I was away for only two days!"

As soon as he rushed to the door of the conference room, Qin Zhong heard Lan Ziqing's roar. He was sent by Wang Boshen to manage the hydropower station. Due to the need for reinforcement, Qin Zhong called him back from the hydropower station.

But unexpectedly, less than two days after arriving, an accident happened at the hydropower station.

"Why are you in such a hurry? The sky hasn't fallen yet!"

Qin Zhong pushed open the door and walked quickly into the conference room. As he entered, Wang Boshen, Lan Ziqing, Wang Yue and others stood up.

After Qin Zhong sat down at the first table, he asked solemnly, "What happened at the hydropower station? Can someone tell me?"

"It's a mutant beast, an extremely powerful mutant beast!"

Hearing Qin Zhong's question, Lan Ziqing took a deep breath and said, "The team stationed at the hydropower station suddenly sent back a communicator, saying that an extremely terrifying water monster appeared in the reservoir of the hydropower station. The monster was none other than the Yangtze alligator, also known as the earth dragon..."

"Crocodile?" Hearing Lan Ziqing's words, Qin Zhong frowned, nodded, and motioned Lan Ziqing to continue.

Lan Ziqing nodded and continued, "Although there was only one, it was much larger than normal. According to reports, the alligator was at least twenty meters long and extremely powerful. With a single flick of its tail, it shattered a wall of the hydropower station. If the soldiers hadn't reacted quickly and immediately abandoned the camp and fled, they would have been dead by now!"

Lan Ziqing said this with a hint of bitterness. "Even so, 72 soldiers were killed by crocodiles. The most troublesome thing is that the crocodiles seem to live near the hydropower station. They appear from time to time and bite our soldiers to death while working near the station. This has seriously affected the normal operation of the hydropower station."

"The Yangtze alligator...it's really a difficult beast to deal with!" After hearing Lan Ziqing's words, Qin Zhong rubbed his eyebrows and felt a headache.

He knew quite a bit about crocodiles. Before the end of the world, there were many movies about crocodiles. Qin Chong was deeply impressed by the crocodiles' strength and cunningness.

This cunning creature is already one of the most difficult hunters on Earth. Now with its huge mutated body, even Qin Zhong couldn't help but feel a little scared when dealing with this monster with amazing intelligence.

……

"I think the crocodile appeared near the hydroelectric power station not because it lives there, but because it knew there was food near the hydroelectric power station, and that food was our soldiers."

Qin Zhong gritted his teeth and said solemnly, "A crocodile over 20 meters long, it looks like we're in big trouble this time..."

"It's just a crocodile, isn't it? How much more troublesome can it be?"

Hearing Qin Zhong's words, Zhou Luosen curled his lips and said disdainfully, "I've seen Chinese alligators in the zoo before. They were so limp that the trainer poked them with a broom and they just dived into the water. They looked completely harmless."

"How can those in the zoo be compared to those in the wild?"

Seeing Zhou Luosen's disdainful expression, Qin Zhong was furious and shouted, "Crocodiles are among the smartest hunters in the world. Before catching their prey, they spend a long time observing its movements. When the prey is most relaxed, they suddenly attack, using their jaws, which rank among the top three in the world in terms of bite force, to tear the prey to pieces."

"That's right!"

After hearing what Qin Zhong said, Wang Yue said seriously, "Moreover, crocodiles are very clever. They will drag large land animals into the water and drown them, and throw large aquatic animals onto the shore to die of thirst. Coupled with their terrifying strength and thick skin that can defend against small arms fire, it is not easy to deal with such monsters!"

"Fuck, crocodiles are so smart? Wang Yue, you're not kidding me, are you? How can an animal be so smart?"

Hearing what Qin Zhong and Wang Yue said, Zhou Luosen suddenly shuddered and said, "However, if what they said is true, then facing this giant beast, we will be in great trouble."

"The worst part is, crocodiles are amphibious."

After taking a deep breath, Qin Zhong told everyone another piece of bad news: "Like I said, crocodiles are very smart creatures. I don't think they will foolishly fight us head-on. Once they find they can't deal with us, they will definitely dive to the bottom of the water and then look for an opportunity to attack."

At this point, Qin Zhong looked around and said, "By then, with our swimming abilities, who can confidently dive into the bottomless reservoir and catch a giant aquatic crocodile over 20 meters long? Can you, Old Zhou?"

"Oh my god! I'm a landlubber. If I fall into the water, it's even a question whether I can float. I'm not afraid of fighting a giant crocodile on land, but I'd better find someone else to go in the water."

When Zhou Luosen heard Qin Zhong's name being called, he looked embarrassed and quickly refused.

Although Zhou Luosen's confidence increased after being strengthened, if he, a landlubber, was asked to fight a giant crocodile in the water, what would be the difference between that and giving the giant crocodile a delicious dessert?
