Logan followed the large group and evacuated to Base No. 1 in Mulin City.

Mulin City can be regarded as the first main city in "Tomorrow". In the later stages of the game, the Yuntian Alliance belonging to the players and the justice NPCs will grow stronger. Base No. 1 and other justice forces dedicated to the revival of mankind will unite under the Yuntian Alliance to fight against the evil organization where Dr. Ethan is located.

However, the current plot is still far from the establishment of the Yuntian Alliance, and the main task of Base 1 is to comfort the panicked people and try to keep as many people alive as possible.

By the time the large group of people from Lihua Shopping Mall and the "individual tourists" who had followed them here and survived had all undergone security checks and found a place to stay and settled down, Logan was so tired that he fell asleep.

Maybe because I have experienced an important main storyline, the time I stayed in the world of tomorrow this time was shorter than last time.

Logan was woken up by the alarm clock. It was not until he sat down at his desk that he realized that he had returned to reality.

Forgot to say good morning to my boss.

After getting home from get off work and finishing the rest of his work, Logan logged into the game and opened the official website.

In the past, he only paid attention to Dr. Ethan, and didn't care much about the background stories of other characters. However, after experiencing that "dream", he began to be curious about the story behind Dylan Yu in the early days of the apocalypse. When he was escaping from the city, he watched the people in the car throw Dylan Yu out as a life-saving bait. What kind of experience made him join Dr. Ethan and become the tyrannical and cruel boss in the later period?

He opened the character introduction and saw the following in the Dylan Yu column:

[At first, he was an ordinary person without superpowers. He encountered misfortunes at the beginning of the end of the world. After being transformed by Dr. Ethan, he gained a powerful fire power known as "the first fire in the end of the world". He established the "Bath of Fire" force, worked for Dr. Ethan, opposed the Yuntian Alliance everywhere, and harmed righteous people...]

y?

Logan was stunned for a moment. If what he saw was the so-called "accident", then it meant that... Y might have been very close to him at that time...

Unfortunately, I didn’t meet him.

The strange thing is that Logan did not have much regret. On the contrary, he felt a faint sense of dreamlike unreality - he actually coexisted with Y in the same world, and they were so close.

After logging into the game, Logan bought a gift for the boss as usual, this time it was fireworks.

The world of keyboard online games is so weird. Even though you are indoors, you can still set off fireworks.

The abandoned laboratory environment was dim, so Logan sat quietly at Y's feet, opened the package, and lit up the prop fireworks one after another.

The room is full of splendor.

"Do you like it? If you like it, I'll show it to you next time." Logan typed.

Then he commanded the little man to stand up, adjusted the view closer, and gave the boss a gentle hug.

Logan looked at the little man with the word "Zhiyin" on his head quietly hugging a virtual character that was half a head taller than him, smiled slightly, and typed the rest of the words--- "y, we are in the same world now."

---

Before going to bed this time, Logan had already prepared to appear in tomorrow's world after waking up, and the facts were not beyond his expectations.

Base No. 1 accommodates nearly 100,000 people, and this number is still increasing. Base No. 1 restored some of its production capacity one month after the end of the world. At the beginning of the end of the world, it was once the largest and safest base in the northeast region.

A commune-like organizational form is implemented here. Both ordinary people and superpowers can earn contribution points by contributing to the construction of the base, and exchange the contribution points for daily necessities. Different jobs get different contribution points. The contribution points earned by working in the base factory are much lower than the contribution points earned by hunting zombies or defending the base. At the same time, the zombie crystal cores killed by the hunting team can also be divided up within the team. In Base No. 1, people have realized the role of zombie crystal cores in upgrading superpowers.

Therefore, the psychics who participate in hunting face more dangers, but can also receive correspondingly greater rewards.

At the same time, there is also a free market for free trade inside the base, where people can exchange what they need, and those who have the skills of forging weapons, making clothes, refining medicines, etc. can sell their things there. These equipment or medicines often have better properties than those exchanged from the base supply point.

This situation seems a bit strange in reality, but as long as you think about the setting of this world being born out of a game, it all makes sense - players have life skills, and the equipment and weapons they make themselves or drop from monsters are often better than those bought in the system store.

However, ordinary zombies in both the Tomorrow World and Tomorrow Game will not drop equipment, and their only drop is the crystal core. Where the boss monsters are, there are often high-level equipment or items. In this world, people understand this as follows: the place where the high-level zombies are located has a higher concentration of mutant elements, which causes ordinary items to have special powers.

The people in the former Lihua Shopping Mall had been separated, and Logan was assigned to the seventh team in Area F, whose captain was a middle-aged uncle with a power mutation. Although the uncle was only an ordinary mutation, he had a long career and was one of the first beneficiaries of the crystal core upgrade. In addition, ordinary mutations were easier to upgrade in the early stages, so he was now a rare third-level mutant, while most people like Logan were still only primary or first-level mutants.

This was Logan's first time in the team. After scanning the team members, he ran into a familiar person. It was not appropriate to say familiar, because he knew the person, but the person did not know him.

That person was Samuel Li, the captain of the Yunlan Branch of the Yuntian Alliance. He was young, handsome, had the dual abilities of water and precision, was strong and gentle, and was a backbone of the justice camp. He was also a popular NPC in the game. But at this time, he seemed to be just one of the ordinary people with abilities.

Many new members joined the team this time, and some experienced veterans were assigned to be captains of the newly formed team. It can be said that the team has been reshuffled. The captain introduced himself first, and then arranged for the team members to introduce themselves to each other.

"My name is Logan, I'm from City M, a level one precision mutant." Logan said so. When he entered the base to register as a superpower, Brother Fei and Uncle Yun registered him as a precision mutant. Base No. 1 was full of people, and exposing himself at this time would inevitably cause trouble. In order to hide his ice superpower, Logan went to the mall and spent one yuan to buy a prop that hides the superpower attribute. This prop is only useful in a few specific copies and tasks in the game, so it is relatively cheap, but now it has helped Logan a lot. After using the prop, unless he actively uses ice skills, others will not find that he has dual superpowers.

When talking about precise mutation, Samuel Li glanced at him calmly.

When it was Samuel Li's turn, he said, "Samuel Li, from city n, first-level precision mutation."

Is he hiding his incompetence? Or is he just like me?

Out of curiosity, Logan bought a supernatural power identification symbol from the mall for 50 cents. This identification symbol is used to identify the supernatural power of the boss or the opponent in the game, so that the player can formulate appropriate tactics and strategies. I think it can also be used to identify Samuel Li's true supernatural power.

The identification results showed that Samuel Li was telling the truth, he really only had level one precision ability.

He couldn’t explain why, but this real-life version of Samuel Li made him feel uncomfortable.

Could it be that Brother Samuel Li's aura of justice was so strong that he, who was close to the boss, couldn't stand it? Logan secretly teased himself in his heart and didn't take it to heart.
