Zhang Zhiyin followed the main force to Base 1 in Mulin City.
Mulin City could be considered as the first main city in Tomorrow. In the later stages of the game, the Yuntian Alliance, which belonged to the players and the forces of justice, would grow stronger. Base 1 and other forces of justice dedicated to the revival of mankind would unite under the banner of the Yuntian Alliance and fight against the evil organization that Dr. Y was in.
However, the current storyline was still far from the establishment of the Yuntian Alliance. The main mission of Base 1 was to calm the panicking people and try to keep as many people alive as possible.
By the time Lihua Mall's main force and the surviving "individual guests" had all gone through a security check and found a place to stay, Zhang Zhiyin was so tired that he fell asleep.
Perhaps because he had experienced an important main storyline, the time he spent in Tomorrow's World was shorter than the last time.
Zhang Zhiyin was woken up by the alarm clock. When he sat down at his desk, he realized that he had returned to reality.
He had forgotten to say good morning to his boss.
After returning home from work, Zhang Zhiyin logged into the game and opened the game's official website.
In the past, he only paid attention to Dr. Y and did not care much about the backstory of other characters. However, after experiencing that "dream," he began to be curious about the story behind Yu Huo during the early stages of the apocalypse. When he was escaping from the city, he saw the person in the car throw Yu Huo out as a life-saving bait. What kind of experience caused him to side with Dr. Y and become the tyrannical and ruthless boss in the later stages?
He opened the character introduction and saw that Yu Huo's column read as follows:
[Initially an ordinary person without any abilities. He encountered an accident at the beginning of the apocalypse. After being modified by Dr. Y, he obtained the powerful fire ability known as "The First Fire of the Apocalypse." He established the "Fire Bath" force and worked for Dr. Y. He went against the Yuntian Alliance and harmed the people of justice …]
y?
Zhang Zhiyin was stunned. If what he saw was the so-called "accident," that meant … Y might have been very close to him at that time …
Unfortunately, he did not meet him.
Strangely, Zhang Zhiyin did not feel much regret. On the contrary, he felt a faint dreamy feeling. He actually coexisted with Y in the same world, and they were so close.
After logging into the game, Zhang Zhiyin bought a gift for his boss as usual. This time, it was a firework.
The keyboard MMORPG world was just that strange. Fireworks could be set off indoors.
The abandoned laboratory was dimly lit. Zhang Zhiyin sat quietly beside Y's feet, opened her bag, and started one fireworks after another.
The entire room was dazzling.
"Do you like it? If you like it, I'll let you have it next time, "Zhang Zhiyin typed.
He then commanded the little person to stand up, zoom in, and give the boss a gentle hug.
Zhang Zhiyin looked at the little person with the word "Zhiyin" quietly hugging the virtual character that was half a head taller than her. She smiled and typed the rest of her words —
"Y, we're in the same world."
This time, before going to sleep, Zhang Zhiyin had already made preparations to wake up and appear in tomorrow's world, and the reality was just as he expected.
Base No.1 accommodated close to 100,000 people, and this number was still increasing. Base No. 1 had recovered part of its production capacity a month after the apocalypse, and it was the largest and safest base in the northeastern region during the early days of the apocalypse.
The organization here was similar to a commune. Be it an ordinary person or an ability user, they could all contribute to the construction of the base in exchange for daily necessities. Different jobs gave different amounts of contribution, and the contribution from working in the factory was far lower than hunting zombies or defending the base. At the same time, the zombie nuclei obtained by the hunting team could be divided among the members of the team. In Base No. 1, the people had already recognized the usefulness of zombie nuclei in leveling up abilities.
Because of that, the ability users who participated in the hunt would face more danger, but at the same time, they would be able to obtain more rewards.
At the same time, there was also a free market within the base, where people could exchange for the things they needed. People with skills such as weapon forging, clothing making, and medicine refining could sell their items there. These equipment and medicines would usually have better attributes than the ones obtained from the base.
In reality, this situation might seem strange, but when one thought about how this world was born out of a game, it made sense. Players had life skills, so the equipment and weapons that were self-made or dropped by monsters were usually better than those bought from the system store.
However, whether it was tomorrow's world or tomorrow's game, normal zombies would not drop equipment, the only thing they would drop were the nuclei. Where boss level monsters were, there would usually be high-level equipment or items. In this world, people's understanding of this was that where high-level zombies were, there would be a higher concentration of mutant elements, causing normal items to have special powers.
The people from the original Lihua Shopping Mall had already been separated, Zhang Zhiyin was assigned to Area F's 7th Squad, the captain was a middle-aged man with a mutant strength. Although the man was only a normal mutant, he had more experience and was one of the first batch of people to benefit from the nuclei. Moreover, it was easier for a normal mutant to level up in the early stages, so he was already a rarely seen Level 3 mutant, while Zhang Zhiyin and the others were only Beginner or Level 1 mutants.
This was Zhang Zhiyin's first time joining the squad, and after looking around, he met a familiar person. It was not appropriate to say that they were familiar, as he knew the person, but the person did not know him.
That person was the future famous Cloud Mist Squad Captain of the Yuntian Alliance, Li Shuifeng. Because he was young, handsome, and had both water and accuracy abilities, he was strong and had a gentle personality, and was also a pillar of the Justice Faction, he was one of the more popular NPCs in the game. However, from the looks of it now, he was only one of the normal mutants.
This time, there were many new members in the squad, some of the experienced veterans were also arranged to be the captain of the newly formed squad, it could be said that the squad had been reshuffled. The captain first introduced himself, and then arranged for the members to introduce themselves.
"My name is Zhang Zhiyin, I come from M City, Level 1 Precision Mutation." Zhang Zhiyin said, when he entered the base to register as a mutant, Brother Fei and Uncle Yun had registered him as a Precision Mutation. Base 1 was a mix of good and bad people, exposing himself now would inevitably cause more problems. In order to hide her ice special ability, Zhang Zhiyin specially went to the merchant shop and spent a dollar to buy an item to hide the attribute of her special ability. This item was only useful in certain dungeons and quests in the game, so it was relatively cheap. But now, it had helped Zhang Zhiyin greatly. After using the item, unless he actively used an ice ability, no one would be able to discover that he had two abilities.
When he mentioned precision mutation, Li Shuifeng calmly glanced at him.
When it was Li Shuifeng's turn, he said, "Li Shuifeng, from N City, Level 1 Precision Mutation."
Is he hiding his ability? Or is he the same as me?
Out of curiosity, Zhang Zhiyin bought an ability identification talisman from the shop for 50 cents. This talisman was used in the game to identify the ability of a boss or a player, so that the player could come up with a suitable strategy. Now, it could be used to identify Li Shuifeng's true ability.
The results showed that Li Shuifeng was telling the truth, he really only had a Level 1 Precision Mutation.
For some reason, this real-life version of Li Shuifeng gave him a very uncomfortable feeling.
Could it be that Brother Shuifeng's sense of justice was too strong, so strong that he, a person close to the Boss, could not stand it? Zhang Zhiyin secretly mocked himself, not taking this matter to heart.
