Wasteland calendar year 400, October 31st.
Suburbs of Red City.
A big hole was trampled out on the lime and bricks by the huge foot.
Clang~
Clang~
Two giant worker ants pulled a huge prison cart and walked step by step towards the center of the ruins.
On both sides of the prison car were large groups of skeletons responsible for protection.
The prison van is filled with supplies... and 26 undeads surrounding an energy beam.
More than 50 horses pulling carts followed closely behind, with the players and people from Zhao Village inside.
Cheng Shaofeng rode his horse among them.
Looking at the superior geographical location and the construction materials all over the ground, Cheng Shaofeng smiled with satisfaction.
The name of this place is Huo Town.
It is said to be a small town on the outskirts of Hongcheng, and was once known as the granary of Hongcheng because there were enough arable fields here.
Gradually abandoned after the wasteland.
It’s not that there are no humans who want the fertile land here, but... this place is too unsafe!
Especially the former farmland, which has now become a paradise for ethereal creatures.
The wind is gloomy and hundreds of ghosts are roaming at night!
Cheng Shaofeng and his companions felt goose bumps all over their bodies when they passed by in broad daylight. They used the base's scan system to look... There were a group of phantom spirits hiding in the dark corners of the fields. If it weren't for the excess yang energy at noon, they would have come out to eat people long ago!
There are also super-powered mutant creatures, mutants, the charred people of Red City, etc., none of which ordinary extraordinary people can afford to offend!
So Huo Village is almost a desolate place with few people!
As soon as Cheng Shaofeng heard about this position yesterday... he made the decision immediately!
Here it is!
There's no better place for gamers than here!
Today's players are far from being as powerful as this world and are in urgent need of leveling up!
He also needs to obtain more crystal energy to upgrade himself and his base.
He has the help of the Scourge Base, and as long as he has crystal energy, he can continue to evolve!
Moreover, Huo Village is very large, with roads extending in all directions. If you don't mind being frequently attacked by unknown creatures on the road... it should be a good stronghold in the future.
"Hmm... it's big enough! The players and I can build it however we want."
Because his Four Mountain Base was being built for the first time, he chose a mountaintop, which was safe and hidden, but it also limited his development. These 40 players had already filled up the base, and if he wanted to summon more players, he had to move.
Cheng Shaofeng found a place with beautiful scenery to stay.
"Soldiers! Station!"
"Old Zhao, station!"
At two orders from Cheng Shaofeng, the players and the people from Zhao Village who followed them began to unload their goods and set up camp.
Although the players' previous simple shacks could not be brought over, there were enough trees to be cut down in the maple forest not far from Huo Village. With the players' current physical strength and attack power, they could quickly get a pile of wood, which could be made into matchboxes that could shelter from wind and rain after a little processing.
"This time we need to build a base... We need to make it more standardized, separating the residential area, main urban area, energy supply area, and NPC living area..."
In this blank plain area, Cheng Shaofeng can now do whatever he wants.
Lines were drawn on the map to divide the various areas. This information was also synchronized on the players' watches, and all were built according to Cheng Shaofeng's requirements.
People from Zhao Village came with Cheng Shaofeng to move this time.
Some captives they had rescued from the marauders also came along.
Although the sight of the players carrying their own corpses with laughter and joy frightened the people of Zhao Village so much that they couldn't sleep all night... but Zhao Yan thought about it carefully.
Doesn’t this just prove that the Scourge Base is powerful!
Immortal warriors, what can't they do
After thinking it through, Zhao Yan made a decisive decision... From now on, they will go wherever the natural disaster base goes!
Even though there are no more predators in the Four Mountains, they have had enough of the days of hunting for survival! They want to follow the Lord and accomplish great things!
and...
Zhao Yan looked at his daughter. As soon as he got out of the car, Xuanxuan had already run to build a house for the fox demon.
"Alas... my daughter is indeed being raised by someone else."
Old Zhao sighed and led his fellow tribesmen to start building their new home.
As for the captives rescued by the players, their homes had long been destroyed by looters. When they were in the Four Mountains, they had already integrated into the people of Zhao Village. They were more likely to make decisions than the people of Zhao Village.
When everyone is working hard.
"Ah! Help, help!"
Uncle Tian, the first one who went to the forest to cut trees, ran towards them in a hurry. Behind him was a red meat monster with a bloody mouth chasing Uncle Tian.
Bang!
Agent Feng shot the meat monster, and explosions followed.
boom!
The meat monster was blown to pieces.
Then the body turned into pink smoke and disappeared into the air.
Agent Feng kills the 'Void Demon', experience +15
After killing the meat monster, a red figure flashed behind Uncle Tian and quickly moved away from the players.
Uncle Tian: "What the hell! This little thing just suddenly jumped down from the tree... It scared me!"
Agent Feng asked in confusion: "Don't you have two skeleton minions? This thing isn't that strong, so how come you can't defeat it?"
Hearing this, Grandpa Tian smiled shyly: "Well... the skeletons were chopping trees, so I didn't ask them to come over to help. Production is the first priority! It's just right that I led them over to show you the new monsters here."
As Grandpa Tian was speaking, two skeletons came over from the east carrying a thick tree.
Lin Tang: "Old Tian, you are such a jerk, who the hell can beat you!"
Lao Tian is an infrastructure fanatic. Previously, it was difficult to display his skills due to limited space on the mountain. But this time... it's his home turf!
"I'm going to log off today. I'm going to design a base structure diagram and show it to the lord when I come back. This wood will be indispensable when the time comes. Oh, by the way... When you come back from the battle, remember to let the skeletons carry a few trees!"
Uncle Tian is addicted to architecture.
Cheng Shaofeng frowned as he watched the disappearing red figure: "We were attacked just after arriving... It's really not peaceful here."
The other players also became alert.
The thin dog said in the team: "There is good news and bad news..."
"The good news is that the monsters here give a lot of experience, and are relatively easy to kill."
"The bad news is... the density of monsters here should be very high, and their IQ is high. The figure behind us ran away immediately after seeing so many of us..."
Yaohu: "I just took a glimpse... It should be a red-skinned humanoid monster, and it is related to the meatball monster. I suspect this little monster was summoned by it."
Polar Bear: "I was just about to say this. According to the nature of this game... except for the undead, other creatures should not disappear directly after death. At least there are corpses for us to drop loot. This piece of meat just now has no corpse, which reminds me... The 'crow' in the mysterious profession is also a summoned energy body."
When several people were discussing.
Kacha~
Lin Tang turned on the safety of his rifle and put on sunglasses.
"Although I don't know what map this is, and I don't know what kind of monster the other side is, but I know... I'm going to go on a killing spree!"
"Gun in hand, follow me!"
The other four people: "..."
Thin Dog: "Ahem! Although it's a bit awkward, we should really test the strength of the new monsters now. Let's go! Kill the monsters first!"
Players from other teams also rushed into the forest.
In the blink of an eye, only 5 life players and Cheng Shaofeng were left.
Uncle Tian: "My Lord, please leave the design blueprint of our new base to me! I promise to give you a perfect answer tomorrow!"
Cheng Shaofeng: "Okay, build up defenses and install our energy launchers in every place where monsters might invade... We are under a lot of pressure on defense right now."
This is the downside of building a city in a dangerous area.
The base may be attacked by surrounding creatures at any time.
When Cheng Shaofeng was discussing some design matters with Uncle Tian, a fiery red lizard crawled over from the west. When it saw the humans, saliva started to flow from its mouth.
He opened his mouth and blew out a large ball of fire towards Cheng Shaofeng!
Cheng Shaofeng directly activated Wind Walker and pulled Lao Tian to avoid the fire attack.
Then I saw the lizard crawling towards me at an extremely fast speed.
The flame is just a test attack, the real killing move is on its flesh.
"Who dares to hurt my lord? It's a bad omen!"
Atton raised his hand and used his innate skill, which hit the lizard and stopped its attack directly. His eyes became confused, and then he hugged Lao Tian's log and started to chew it.
Kachakacha~
Wood chips flying everywhere!
Cheng Shaofeng calmly picked up his pistol and fired a round of full-level explosive ammunition.
Bang!
boom!
The lizard was hit hard and its skin and flesh were torn apart, but its body was not seriously damaged in the flames.
It's a little different from the charred lizard that Cheng Shaofeng wanted.
The skeletons of Uncle Tian, Xiaoxiao, and Xue Zi rushed forward and hacked the fire-breathing lizard to death with their swords.
Kill the Salamander together, experience +25
Cheng Shaofeng: "Huh? The players' experience points... are so much. If we divide it among three people, each person can get 25 points?"
Just when Cheng Shaofeng was about to check the monster's corpse.
Oh~~
A large bird swooped down from the sky with lightning on its body, rushing towards a player who was standing and watching the show.
The player "She said it doesn't count as a gift if I wear it" didn't notice it at the first time, and was hit on the head by the big bird's beak, leaving a bloody hole.
And then... Boom!
A bolt of lightning struck from the bird's mouth, electrocuting the player to a charred black.
The player "She said wearing it doesn't count as a gift" has been killed.
Atton used bone spears to attack the electric birds in the sky, but they were all dodged flexibly.
The level 1 crow summoned by Cheng Shaofeng was unable to do anything to it and was pecked to death by it in two hits.
"Curse of Weakness!"
Cheng Shaofeng found the right moment to curse it, reducing its speed by 25%, and its body became stiff instantly.
Atton used his innate skill Bad Omen again, making it unconscious.
Immediately afterwards, 12 undead spirits led by Li Zhe stood up.
"Let's take a look at the results of our new learning!"
"Bone spear!"
12 undead spirits simultaneously fired bone spears. Although they seemed to have average power, there were too many of them!
The strange bird's wings were pierced and it fell from the sky in horror.
Surrounded and dismembered by skeletons.
Kill the Electric Falcon together, experience +50
Uncle Tian, Xiaoxiao and Xuezi gained another wave of experience.
Xiaoxiao: "That's a lot of experience! We can get so much experience just by lying at home. This is much more fun than Sishan~"
But that’s not all.
The noise here might be a bit loud, and it attracted some strange mutant creatures, causing considerable trouble to the construction of the base, but in the end they were all suppressed by the undead and several living players.
Cheng Shaofeng also slowly gained experience.
"The mutants here all have the attribute of energy attack... So far, the ones I have seen are those with high attack and low defense, and they also give me a lot of experience points. It seems that players will have to stay in the city more often in the future, otherwise they will be annoyed to death by these mutants."
It's not a threat to life, but it causes great trouble to the construction of the base.
Grandpa Tian's log had been half eaten by the lizard and turned into sawdust... One can imagine that if this kind of attack were to fall on a person, it would be enough to chew the person down to bone residue.
Cheng Shaofeng subconsciously wanted to call some players back to defend the city.
But suddenly I remembered... there is no communication base station here, and the communication with the players is temporarily cut off.
"The beginning of a new base... It's so stressful."
Fortunately, Cheng Shaofeng was prepared to withstand the pressure when he chose this place, and he acted quickly.
"Zero, rebuild the clone production warehouse, loot generator, and attribute conversion tower! And move the energy emission column to the center of the base."
Zero: "As you wish~"
These three initial buildings were built with nanomaterials from the Scourge Base. They could be condensed into the size of a watch, so they could be taken away at any time.
A large number of nano-engineer robots emerged from Cheng Shaofeng's body and began to build and transport.
With the prison car energy launch column repositioned in the center of the base, the base's defense was finally up.
The damage caused by the radiation wave is enough to kill a large number of these mutant creatures.
After killing a few more mutant creatures, there was no movement in the west.
"It's still 5 kilometers away from the western col... These attacking monsters are most likely random soldiers foraging for food on the periphery. After we clear out a batch, we should be able to hold out for a while."
"Zero, build me another smartwatch communication base station!"
Zero: "Received!"
Before moving, Cheng Shaofeng asked Xiaoxiao and the others to collect a batch of materials, which would be used in the new base.
After all, the old communication base station cannot be taken away, and leaving it in the Four Mountains will also make it convenient for players to communicate when they go there.
Under the threat of mutant creatures in the west and mutants in the east, Cheng Shaofeng steadily advances the construction of the base.
After stabilizing the situation, Cheng Shaofeng picked up the mutant creature he had just killed and threw it into the loot generator for decomposition.

Two new types of inlays, 3 bottles of life potions, 3 bottles of energy potions, and some material items.
A tough lizard skin, a feather containing lightning, a piece of poisonous meat, and a cold snake tendon.
"Hmm... The creatures here have new inlays that can be used, and the properties look great. These materials should sell well in Colossus City. I heard from the people there... Items containing energy are not cheap. Of course, my new building may be more useful."
The synthesis machine of everything!
Cheng Shaofeng felt that some unexpected items might be produced after the material items were put in.
"Sure enough, it's just as I thought... The greater the danger, the greater the opportunity."
"Oh, to be precise, the more dangerous the player is, the greater my chances will be."
"Anyway, I'm just going to lie next to the energy beam from now on, so players, charge!"
The other side.
The players rushed into the forest, but... there were no mutants running around as they had imagined. There were very few mutants to be seen, and most of them were pink meat monsters hiding in the trees and attacking the players.
After killing a few, players gained a little experience but no loot.
In the end, only a part of the Undead players were left with their skeleton minions to cut down trees.
Most of the players returned to base.
As soon as the main players came back, the pressure of defending the city was instantly reduced, and the few mutant creatures that appeared were easily killed by the players. Even though some attacks were too powerful, the polar bear's full-level death armor could add 1175 extra lives!
The full body armor can help the player block a fatal attack.
Now, the situation is completely stable.
Cheng Shaofeng calculated the route and arrival time of the Colossus City caravan in his mind and began to edit a new round of announcements.
“It’s time to start the internal beta test of version 2.0!”
The time is ripe, and it's time to summon more players to enter the wasteland world and work for him!
When Cheng Shaofeng closed his eyes and thought.
Wu Jie stood on the top of the prison van, looking at the Red City in the distance, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Brother Feng built the base so close to Red City... If those coke people rush out, they can reach our base within an hour. Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"
Even though the strength displayed by these Scourge soldiers impressed Wu Jie, but... that huge mass of charred people might be tens of thousands of people!
With absolute numerical suppression, Wu Jie didn't believe the players could win.
He had a translator on his watch, and he pulled Riben Guizi, who had been to Hongcheng with him before.
"Soldier! Do you remember that place? The extremely dangerous Red City! You must be careful of the threats from that direction."
Riben Guizi was stunned for a moment, then immediately his face lit up with joy.
"Thanks for the reminder!"
Seeing that the soldiers were very reasonable, Wu Jie felt relieved.
"They are professional soldiers who should be able to do a good job of reconnaissance and prevention..."
Next second.
Riben Guizi ran to the players and shouted, "Brothers! I have a great monster spawning spot to share with you!"
Wu Jie: (‧̣̥̇꒪່⍢꒪່)
Cheng Shaofeng heard the conversation between Wu Jie and the player, thought for a moment... and understood where they were talking about.
That terrifying and mysterious red city.
“It’s good to let the players try it out... I always feel that there are many secrets hidden in that city.”
"By the way, now that we're here, we should go get some more electronic components."
This time, Cheng Shaofeng wants players to win based on their own strength.
Wu Jie's luck buff...if it fails once, he will die.
Agent Feng saw that the buildings in the base were rising from the ground and everything was on track.
He jumped on his horse and said, "It seems...I should leave now. Compared to steady growth, exploring the vast open world is the way I prefer to play. Brothers, wait for me to find more skills for the Inquisitor!"
Agent Feng ran over to say goodbye to the lord.
And tentatively asked: "Lord, can you give me a translator like the one the shop owner has? I can buy it with money!"
After a little thought, Cheng Shaofeng decided to add one more item to the internal beta 2.0.
