Times were changing, technology was improving, and the transmigration industry was also keeping up with the times. But according to incomplete statistics, 70% out of ten transmigrated because they were hit by a car. Most of them woke up to find themselves in an unfamiliar room.
Zhang Zhiyin woke up after being hit by a car and found himself in an unfamiliar room.
It wasn't entirely accurate to say that it was unfamiliar, the layout of the room exuded a sense of familiarity. The messy table, the stool that was missing a leg, the shelf full of CDs, and the blindingly large non-mainstream posters …
He looked around and was stunned for a few seconds before realization dawned on him. Wasn't this the room in "Tomorrow" where the plot started?
In "Tomorrow", players would appear in a small apartment when they entered the game. They needed to complete a series of beginner's missions such as "equip" and "show off skills" before finally defeating two zombies that broke into their home.
Zhang Zhiyin had created three alternate accounts, so he was very familiar with this scene.
Zhang Zhiyin touched the wooden table and felt that it was still unrealistic. What … happened to him?
"Tomorrow" had a total of five normal professions that players could choose from: Student, White Collar, Athlete, Doctor, Teacher, and two paid professions, Special Forces and Researcher. In addition, there were special professions such as Assassin, Thief, Monk, Taoist, Actor, Singer, and Chef. There was a certain chance that these professions would be triggered upon entering the game. There was also the possibility of fulfilling special conditions in the game to obtain a specialized profession. Every profession had its own unique advantages and disadvantages. The five basic professions were generally balanced, but the attributes of the paid professions were more prominent.
Zhang Zhiyin's chosen profession in the game was a student. His attributes were relatively average, but his advantage was his growth potential. Looking at the layout of the room he was in, it was exactly the same as the apartment where the student profession entered the game. If the basic routine here was the same as the game, then there was a high chance that his current profession was still a student.
But … he lowered his head, lifted up his loose t-shirt, and looked at his flat upper body that didn't have a single muscle. This was his body that he was very familiar with, not the player character in the game who had an eight pack. In front of the dressing mirror, his own face was also reflected. It was peaceful and quiet, with a hint of panic and helplessness. It was completely different from the energetic student in Tomorrow.
Unable to find any other clues in the house, Zhang Zhiyin stumbled to the window and looked down. was an ordinary 3D game. In the game, it was impossible to actively look down through the window.
But now he saw it. It was as if the game world had been patched up. The apocalypse had come. Everywhere was silent. Zombies roamed the city. Occasionally, there would be shrill cries coming from somewhere.
The background of the game was the tenth day of the apocalypse. The surviving player protagonist had finished all the food in his house and finally recognized reality. He decided that he could not sit still and wait for death. He had to find a way out.
The next second, there was a familiar scratching sound at the door. The ear-piercing scratching sounds were especially oppressive and urgent at this moment. Five seconds later, the sound of chewing could be heard.
The zombies outside were gnawing at the door.
Zhang Zhiyin cursed inwardly. If he was right, the two zombies outside the door would break in in less than half a minute.
He ran back to the bedroom from the balcony and skillfully opened the drawer at the bottom of the wooden table. He took out a metal rod. This was the starting weapon given by the system for students from level 1 to 5. [Delinquent's Most Powerful Steel Pipe].
Zhang Zhiyin weighed the weight in his hands and muttered, "I'm depending on you, old brother." Although the Steel Pipe Brother would inevitably be discarded after reaching level 5, Zhang Zhiyin was still very emotional about the first weapon he obtained in the game.
Although he had not yet figured out his current situation, even if it was a dream, he could not let zombies bite him to death! Moreover, they were level 0 zombies for newbies to practice with! This was simply an insult to a veteran player of who had killed countless zombies with his own hands!
Although he had always used the mouse and keyboard to deal with them.
Zhang Zhiyin confidently walked behind the refrigerator and laid in ambush, waiting for the zombies to rush in. This was the best place to block the zombies. Here, the two zombies would not be able to touch him and could only be beaten up.
"Boom!" The outer door broke open and the two zombies swaggered in. Beginner level 0 zombies weren't outstanding in any aspect. They had slow reactions and their speed was about the same as an old man taking a stroll on the street.
Zhang Zhiyin watched as they slowly moved forward and silently calculated. One step, two steps, three steps … Soon, when they get close to the fridge, they will be stuck and unable to move.
The two zombies smelled the smell of raw meat and approached Zhang Zhiyin step by step. After hitting the refrigerator, they changed directions and continued to pounce at Zhang Zhiyin.
What was going on?! The script wasn't right!
Zhang Zhiyin did not expect the zombies to be able to bypass the refrigerator and became flustered. He attacked the zombie in front of him with his rod and narrowly dodged the claws of the other zombie. At the same time, he kicked at it.
The kick hit the zombie's throat and caused it to fall to the ground, giving Zhang Zhiyin time to focus on the other zombie. By the time the second zombie got up, Zhang Zhiyin had already finished off the first zombie.
After waiting for the two zombies to raise their death flags, Zhang Zhiyin carefully thought about it and felt that something was wrong. He was a typical weak trash university student who was harmed by the current education system and could barely pass the physical exam every year. He had just graduated and found a civilian job. Ever since he was young, he had never used a steel pipe to fight on the streets. The martial arts he was most proficient in were the Tai Chi moves taught by the enthusiastic old man in the park. Therefore, it was impossible for him to deal with the two zombies so easily.
Thinking back to his actions just now, the way he swung the steel pipe was like the basic physical attack skill Flying Cloud Slash. That kick was also like the basic skill Sweeping Kick. Therefore, he should be like in the game and automatically grasped a few basic skills?
There was no point in thinking too much about it. Whether it was a dream or the current popular time travel or something else, he could only take one step at a time.
After looking through the peephole for a long time, he finally opened a small crack and said in a small voice: "Zhiyin, Zhiyin, are you okay?"
Zhang Zhiyin walked to the destroyed door of his house with a complicated feeling. He knew about this part of the plot. The uncle opposite his house was called Pang Guang. His strength was mutated. He wasn't a bad person but he was as timid as a mouse. After this incident, he would ask the players to escape together. Then, they would join up with the other neighbors to kill the zombies and reach Lihua Shopping Mall.
He thought about it and replied like the main character in the game: "Uncle Pang, I'm okay."
Pang Guang frowned: "There are these monsters everywhere. We have waited for so many days and there is still no news of rescue. I think it is better to rely on ourselves than others. Zhiyin, why don't we team up and kill our way out? If we continue like this, we will die sooner or later. "
Hearing the familiar lines of the game being said by a living NPC, Zhang Zhiyin pursed his lips and said: "Okay."
Pang Guang took out a butcher knife: "Uncle has already prepared it. Be careful, let's go!"
Zhang Zhiyin and Uncle Pang went downstairs. They lived on the 12th floor. On the way out, they met up with the neighbor, Grandma Xu, the kindergarten girl, Jing Jing, the baseball player, and a series of other familiar NPCs. There were a total of eight people. After all, there were only the lowest level 0 zombies along the way. It was also daytime, so they killed their way to Lihua Shopping Mall without any danger.
There were already many people gathered here. There were people who used to work in the public sector who organized themselves to distribute food and wait for rescue. Zhang Zhiyin was not unfamiliar with this place. After all, it was equivalent to a beginner's village in the game.
Arriving at Lihua Shopping Mall had a special meaning. All players would only know what abilities they had awakened when they arrived here.
The ability setting in Tomorrow could be said to be one of the most profitable and popular settings. In the game, there were five ordinary enhanced abilities – Stamina, Strength, Defense, Speed, and Accuracy. There were five ordinary elemental abilities – Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth. There were two mutated elemental abilities – Ice and Thunder. There were three special abilities – Space, Spirit, and Healing. If he was lucky, he might even trigger a Dual Arcana from any combination of two Arcanas.
Of course, the better and more precious the ability, the lower the chance of triggering it. Most players would naturally trigger ordinary enhanced abilities here. But in a game that paid for items, this wasn't a problem. The item store would tell you that ordinary enhanced abilities would cost 50 yuan, ordinary elemental abilities would cost 66 yuan, mutated elemental abilities would cost 300 yuan, and special abilities would cost 666 yuan. You could even use 500 yuan to activate a second ability.
But! The second ability that was activated after spending 500 yuan was random! It was very likely that it was the most useless ordinary enhanced ability!
The item store would tell you that this wasn't a problem. As long as you spent another 500 yuan to activate it again, you would have a chance to obtain a second ability. Of course, the item store wouldn't guarantee what the new ability would be. But as long as you had money, you could willfully grind until you obtained the double ability that you dreamed of.
In addition, there were actually hidden abilities that couldn't be bought in the item store. But those could only be bought with luck and couldn't be bought with money.
Just like in the game, an auntie in charge would appear and explain to them how ordinary people could activate abilities. She would also teach them how to check if they had activated an ability and what ability they had activated.
In the game, they would naturally open the newly activated ability panel to check. But now, Zhang Zhiyin had no choice but to follow the auntie's instructions and press on his heart. At the same time, he looked at his left wrist.
A faint gray mark appeared there.
Gray … If he didn't remember wrongly, it should represent an ordinary enhanced ability? That's not right. Zhang Zhiyin froze for a moment. Where was his cool ice ability? Or could it be that this world had nothing to do with his game?
The next second, Zhang Zhiyin thought of something and suddenly felt like he was in Sparta.
His cool ice ability was something that he had spent 300 yuan to buy. His Zhiyin's main account had indeed awakened a precision variant! Later on, he wasn't willing to give up and opened three smurf accounts. He repeated the initial storyline three times but only awakened an ordinary enhanced ability. As everyone knew that abilities were very important to this game, ordinary enhanced abilities wouldn't be able to survive in the later stages. Therefore, Zhang Zhiyin gritted his teeth and charged 500 yuan at the start of the game. He then used 300 yuan to exchange for an ice ability …
Zhang Zhiyin squatted at the corner of the wall and drew circles. Suddenly, he saw a familiar icon that shouldn't have appeared. Two gold ingots were stacked together and below them were the words "Item Store".
F * ck, Qing Lang Company must have gone crazy thinking about money. Even in my dreams, they won't let me off!
