Chapter 16
Lin Mao was a man of his words. Since he had promised to do something, he would definitely do it. The size of Lin family's business empire was huge and the main industry was firmly grasped in his hand. He was going to make a big move in private, and nobody would be able to stop it. Though that didn't matter since nobody would be able to find a single clue about what he was doing anyway.
After all, the Lin family was centuries-old. This eminent family had a large network of influence. The family had a high population. But because not everyone was close to Lin Mao or his grandchildren, the news about the apocalypse was concealed from them. Even if they did tell them, nobody would believe their words because it sounded ludicrous. The news was simply too sensational to be true. Other family members would be too afraid to gamble the Lin family foundation on Gong Xiangyi's unconfirmed prophecy. However Lin Mao was taking action now because it would've been too late to do anything when the prophecy did come true.
Therefore, after Lin Mao returned to Lin family household he called his accounting team directly in order to integrate all of Lin family's assets into one place so they could use it at any time.
When the accounting team received the order, they were so surprised that they repeatedly confirmed whether Old Lin's mental condition was alright. After they confirmed he was not joking, the elite team immediately began calculating. After two weeks, an astronomical sum was sent to Lin Wenbo's private account. And Lin enterprise became an empty shell from then on.
Lin Wenbo purchased weapons from various channels and focused on purchasing a large number of helicopters and heavily armored vehicles. He also announced that Lin Enterprise was entering the food industry. He borrowed huge sums from the bank and quickly set up a food processing plant; a large number of agricultural products from all over the world were purchased.
Gong father and Song Haoran also didn't dare slack off and took control of A province's provincial army. They didn't think about releasing news about the apocalypse because it would cause public unrest. But really, who would believe such unbelievable nonsense? They would also be dismissed from their duties for disturbing the social order, then they would be replaced by a leader who knew nothing and would then be unprepared. This in turn would cause casualties to skyrocket when the apocalypse did begin. That situation would be even more difficult to control.
Instead, all the preparations were carried out in an orderly manner as time passed by. On the third to last month before the apocalypse, what Gong Xiangyi prophesied as the trilogy of things that would change with the coming apocalypse; changing weather, mutating animals and finally the mutation of humans, the second of the three came to be.
Perhaps it was because animals having a body structure that was much simpler than humans, which made them more susceptible to the increasingly poisonous atmosphere, thus exhibiting anomalies in behavior and appearance earlier than humans.
Some animals' fur changed color overnight, whilst some grew wings and horns when they didn't have them before. Some animals had a sudden increase in size. It was as if many of the mythical creatures that had only existed in legends and stories began appearing due to the gradual change occurring in the world.
This anomaly attracted the attention of many scientists. Many TV media-outlets launched an exploration and discovery program and their ratings were phenomenal. Many hot debates took place but people had not noticed that a disaster capable of extinction was approaching step by step.
After eight months of exhaustive work, all preparations were complete. The end of the world was nearing. Song Haoran, Lin Wenbo and Gong Xiangyi seldom had a day off, but now they stayed at home to rest, relax and loosen their bodies which hadn't had much rest for nearly a year. Everything had been done and everybody was exhausted, but thanks to God's will they were able to finish everything in time. [1]
