Before the nuclear war, the area of Xuzhou City in the old era had exceeded 10,000 square kilometers, and excluding the mountains, hills and suburbs, the densely built urban area alone had nearly 4,000 square kilometers, and the area occupied by Thunder City was only less than one-tenth of the area in the urban area of the prefecture-level city in Jiangsu Province.

This vast ruined city has become a paradise for mutant creatures and explorers, and human players can be seen from time to time near Thunder City, and the deeper you go, the fewer players around you, and with it, more unknown dangers.

Players wandering the ruins of the city are divided into three types of people, each of whom has their own unique nicknames: hunters, pioneers, and scavengers.

Among them, the strength of the hunter is the strongest, to become a hunter, either he is an evolutionary, or he is a player with superb combat skills and sophisticated equipment, this group of people is active in the most inaccessible places in the ruins, their goal is to hunt those mutated creatures, and most of the monster materials and the serum dropped by the boss in the Thunder City business house are from the hands of hunters.

Pioneers are hired by Thunder City, often in groups of dozens of people, their task is to clean up the ruins, draw maps, and work for the continued expansion of Thunder City's territory, like the pioneers who cleaned up the subway and sewage system mentioned by the guards before, the pioneers are not as strong as the hunters, but because they are all acting in teams, the security is higher.

Scavengers are the most special kind of player group, among them there are evolutionaries, there are also women and children who are powerless, there are group actions, and there are also single-handed, and the day that earns more is the entry and exit of tens of thousands of resource points, which is no less than that of hunters, and those who earn less, often have no harvest for several days, and eating is a problem.

What they do is find valuable things from ruined cities and bring them back to areas under the player's control, such as Thunder City.

Among the scavengers, Thunder City cannot be well managed and coordinated, so it is simply allowed to develop freely, and only a few scavengers with strong strength and unique abilities will establish long-term cooperative relations with some large commercial banks.

The strongest of these scavengers tend to go deeper than the hunters, and they may not be able to take down the powerful mutated creatures located deep in the city, but their ability to escape and hide is absolutely top-notch.

And the general scavengers basically follow behind the pioneer team, looking for some valuable scraps in the area that has been cleared up......

……

The impostor who had stolen Krein's identity manipulated the Red Dragon Type Six and rushed directly into the depths of the ruins, Qi Lin followed his trail all the way, and this was the third day since he left Thunder City.

In addition to going offline for twenty minutes every day to solve the problem of eating, drinking, and lazing, Qi Lin was immersed in the game for almost this time, and even Xiao Lei couldn't help but complain that Qi Lin was addicted to it more than himself.

It's been half a day's journey from one of the most cutting-edge scavenger supply stations where he last stayed, and Qi Lin is now squatting in the communication room of an old school ruins, a pot of fragrant mushroom soup is boiling in a trumpet marching pot in front of him.

This kind of fungus that grows on the wasteland has an extremely strong taste, but it contains a lot of radiation, and ordinary people eat it no different from eating poison, but here in Qi Lin, it is just a harmless delicacy.

After confirming that there were no other players around, Qi Lin took out the [Mechanical Parts HK2] that he had auctioned from the auction house and the [Mechanical Parts HK7] he had obtained from his previous mission, and just put these two parts together, the two parts seemed to sense each other's existence, and they trembled slightly, and a red glimmer began to appear in the gaps of the parts.

"Sure enough, there was a reaction!"

Seeing that the guess in his heart had been verified, Qi Lin was overjoyed and immediately pasted the two parts together.

With a slight metal click, the two parts snapped into each other, and then, even the names changed.

"[Incomplete Boot Core]. Orange items. Unknown use. Completeness 2/7, missing parts: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6. ”

"It's an orange object!"

Qi Lin was shocked, so far, the only orange item that has appeared in this game is the heart of the city of Thunder City, in addition, even the Red Dragon Type 6 power armor that he is tracking now is only of purple quality.

The meaning of orange quality is "legend", although the Red Dragon Type 6 power armor is powerful, it is still a mass-produced weapon, but it is just ...... What is this incomplete startup core, which can also be called a "legend"?

This "starter core" is currently only two-sevenths complete, and there are still five parts to collect, but what will happen when it is complete?

Qi Lin couldn't guess it at all, but what he understood was that this thing must not be known now, and orange items, even if they were just a piece of garbage, would cause an uproar in the entire game world......

Carefully hiding the activation core in the dark layer of the backpack, Qi Lin stabilized his mood for a while, only to find out that the grass and mushroom soup were overcooked!

……

Thunder City, the central hub of the bunker, the global control room.

Bryce, who was secretly given a sissy nickname by Qi Lin, went against the norm in the past, his face was bitter, and he kept scratching his nails, not even realizing that the nail polish applied on it was about to be shaved clean.

Opposite him stood a handsome young man who was not yet twenty years old, with an arrogant and domineering face, but with a hint of gloom in the depths of his eyes.

"Why? That 9527 is just a poor boy from a slum, uncle, is he old and confused? Just give an E-class serum to an outsider with a lowly status who has nothing to do with the consortium? ”

"Fourth young master, city lord, his ...... That's what he meant, and ......"

Bryce frowned, trying to explain something, but was quickly interrupted by the teenager.

"And what? The serum is the property of the consortium, and as a member of the permanent board of directors of the consortium, I have the right to dispose of this serum, don't you know that the captain of the guard under me will soon be promoted to a second-level evolutionary? Why don't you use this serum on your own people? ”

"Fourth young master, if you take it directly, the boss ...... It's hard to explain to the city lord. ”

Bryce had just finished speaking, when suddenly, a sinister smile appeared on the young man's face and he said, "Uncle means that I can't just take it, right?" ”

"This serum has already been promised out as a reward for the mission, if the fourth young master wants it, it is better to wait a few days, the hunter team in the city will be back soon......"

"As one of the owners of Thunder City, do I also have the power to make a small increase in the difficulty of the task? As long as that 9527 can't complete the task, then he naturally can't get this serum. The young man suddenly changed his words and asked.

Hearing that the young man wanted to modify the task on his own initiative, Bryce hurriedly shook his head: "If you directly change the content of the mission, where will it put the credibility of Thunder City?" Please think twice about the fourth young master! ”

"Don't worry, I won't directly modify the content of the task, I'm just adding a little 'little trouble' to that kid who doesn't know the height of the sky, even if my uncle knows, he won't say anything!" The young man, who was called the fourth young master by Bryce, sneered, then hung Bryce in place, turned around and brushed his sleeves away.

Looking at the young man who left, Bryce shook his head helplessly, as a servant, no matter how high the level is, he is just a high-level servant, and there are some things that he can't interject.
