I understand what the furry ones are saying. I'm going crazy killing people in the apocalypse.

Chapter 18 The Chosen Son

The survivors did not leave upon hearing this. Instead, they took out all their assets and said, "Lord, we are willing to work together for the base."

Ji Li was stunned.

They just gave her all their wealth? But she wouldn't run away.

Bringing the group to the affairs center, Ji Li turned on the computer on the desk, entered all the information of these people one by one and recognized their irises.

After completing the information entry, Ji Li handed over the black card automatically printed out by the computer.

The card is similar to an ID card, with the words “Taoyuan Base Resident Certificate” written on the top.

"This is the Taoyuan Base resident card. Remember to keep it safe. You will need it to enter and exit the base and make purchases."

The survivors were holding their own resident cards and looked very excited.

"Great, I now have a base resident ID card. This all seems like a dream..."

"By the way, when I first entered the base, I saw farmland, and there were tomatoes and corn!"

"Really? Then can we exchange some food with the Lord?"

Someone suggested: "Let's go collect wood and stone first, and then come back and talk about it."

"Wait a minute." Qu Jin thought things over carefully. He looked at the people traveling with him and said, "We have to find a few cars first. Otherwise, how are we going to get the wood and stones back?"

After Ji Li finished entering the information of the last survivor, she heard Qu Jin's words and explained, "The base and the mountain behind are integrated. The wood and stones you collected will be automatically stored in the warehouse. Don't worry."

Qu Jin was surprised when he heard this, then he thought of something and didn't ask any more questions: "Okay."

Everyone left the base together, and Ji Li sat on a chair and called up the panel to check.

[Taoyuan Base (Level 2)]

【Population: 9/15】

【Tax rate: 10% (adjustable)】

[Buildings: Business Center, Wooden House*3, Primary Warehouse, Power Plant, Water Purification Plant]

[Gold coins: 1037]

任务刷新：【升级（3级）基地，所需建筑交易大厅、居民楼房一栋，任务完成即可获得田地*2（土地面积1m×1m）、金币5000】

After turning off the panel, Ji Li got up and left the base to collect wood and stones.

Collecting materials is a very physically demanding job. After collecting all the required materials, everyone was exhausted, panting and sweating.

Despite this, no one complained. They are now residents of Taoyuan Base and will of course work harder to make the base develop better.

It's approaching noon.

Ji Li first returned to the base to complete the task. On the transparent panel was a panoramic view of the base. Just like in management games, the entire layout could be moved.

I simply planned it in my mind and adjusted the building position by sliding the panel with my fingertips.

When everything was ready, other people came back one after another. When they saw the drastic changes in the base, they were all surprised.

Lu Yang pointed at the residential building standing in the distance, his eyes widened and he exclaimed: "Brother Qu Jin, what's going on? Am I seeing things?..."

Qu Jin shook his head and responded calmly: "Have you ever played a business game?"

"Yes, I played it. I played Clash of Clans every day when I was in college..." Lu Yang paused, then suddenly realized, "Then our Lord is the Chosen One, isn't he? He was chosen by the game..."

I'm so envious!

Why didn't the game choose him as the chosen one? He admitted that he was jealous.

Qu Jin did not comment: "I guess there is more than one Utopia base in this world, there should be others in other places..." They knew almost nothing about this game which called itself "Law of Doomsday". It came to the world, brought disaster to mankind and almost destroyed the whole world.

It is this that caused humans to be displaced. They hate and detest this so-called doomsday law, but at the same time it gives humans a glimmer of hope. The awakening of superpowers gives humans a chance to breathe.

And now, someone has been selected as the lord by the game. What is the purpose of doing this?
No one can guess, but the only thing they can do now is to live well, live hard, and live to the end.

"My Lord, we have collected the materials."

Seeing Ji Li coming out of the affairs center, the survivors suddenly became excited.

Ji Li looked at the sweaty people and said, "Thank you for your hard work. We have enough wood and stone for now. You don't have to go in the afternoon. Everyone, have a good rest in the base and we will talk about it tomorrow."

After saying that, he shifted his gaze to the young man who was dirty but in very good spirits: "Your name is Qu Jin, right? Help distribute the food later."

Qu Jin was stunned, looking at the girl in front of him who was younger than him, and hurriedly responded: "Okay."

A fire was lit and the survivors sat in a circle.

Qu Jin distributed the corn and tomatoes in the plastic basket one by one, and there was also a bottle of mineral water.

Everyone gathered around the fire, roasting corn and eating fresh tomatoes. It felt like a dream.

"Hey, pinch me, I keep thinking this is an illusion..."

"I've never tasted grilled corn so good. I could eat ten more!"

"We are so lucky. We are the first batch to join the base. From now on, we will be that thing, ah, yes, yes, veteran level!"

"I just hope this base can last a little longer and not be the same as before..."

Someone interrupted: "How can this be compared with other bases? This is a base recognized by the game."

"Yes, yes, don't worry about it."

"..."

And that time.

In the urban area of Lanjiang City, Ji Yang used his supernatural powers to kill the infected mutant plants. He wiped the blood off his hands and picked up the crystal core that fell on the ground.

That day he over-expended his supernatural powers and fell into a coma, and when he woke up it was already the next day.

The first thing Ji Yang did when he woke up was to go back to the base to look for his sister. However, when he returned to the base and saw the destroyed houses and dried blood on the ground, he almost fainted again.

He ran through every corner of the base, and was relieved when he didn't see his sister. But then he became worried, wondering if Lili would be in danger by herself...

Pei Ji glanced around the dilapidated house and comforted him calmly: "Didn't you say that your sister is particularly popular with mutant animals?"

Ji Yang: “…”

Although, he was still a little worried, but there was nothing he could do now and he could only move forward.

"By the way, Brother Xie Xun hasn't been back for so long, is there anything wrong with him?"

Pei Ji frowned, his cold and delicate face showing no emotion, and after a while he said slowly: "It's okay."

"That's right. Brother Xun is so powerful, how could he be in trouble? But we still have to find them quickly..."

Ji Yang smiled, turned around and looked at the brown bear on all fours, looking into the distance. Suddenly he uttered an "ah" and thought of something: "Little bear, can you smell Lili's scent?"

The brown bear glanced down at him condescendingly and groaned.

Ji Yang: “???”

Is this possible or not?
