Immortals exist.

Be it the Vampires of Transylvania, or the Daoists of Kunlun. Immortals always left indelible trails of their legends in the mark of history.

However, faced with the technological advancement of mankind, even the long-living felt the need to lay low and hide behind the curtains of society.

The consequences of getting discovered was something that Claude personally experienced during the chaos of World War 3. And with his constitution being uniquely different even among other types of Immortals, what followed after was a life of experiments and imprisonment.

.
.

Decades passed... People died and the war had ended.

Yet even after the experiments had stopped, no one was able to discover his existence that was trapped inside a World War 3 bunker.

Only after what seemed like an eternity later did the Heavens saw fit to free him from his cage. But to his surprise, what had greeted him was not the wasteland and nuclear winter he had expected the war to create.

No.

It was a vast expanse of extreme wilderness with overgrown trees and titan-like beasts roaming the Earth unobstructed. A land where humankind were once again at the mercy of nature.

"Humans... What have they done...?"

It was year 0, the mark of mankind, called Judgement Day, but it was not the coming of God’s wrath to execute those who sinned, but the mindless and deadly massacre of all humans.

The MWD one of the newest and widely popular VR MMORPG games. where the player must survive and get stronger in a post-apocalyptic world full of mutated monster and human looking for blood.



Nathaniel was entertained by my reaction. "No guy ever said those words to you, Miss Beatrice?"
He was spot on. I didn't even have to reply for him to know the answer.
"What are your hobbies?" he asked.
I hesitated before answering. "Videogames."
I was sorry to disappoint him with my un-girly hobby.
His eyes widened in surprise. "Really? You don't look like the type. What sort of games do you play? Wee Tennis?"
I hesitated once more. "I like co-op fps survival horror games set in a post-apocalyptic world."
I started sweating. I wanted to answer honestly, but I also feared my replies would color his impression of me in a strange way.
"Zombies?" he guessed.
"Yeah. And every grotesque being the horror game world has to offer."
Aaah! What are you doing, Beatrice!?You're making it worse!
"Really now?" He looked as amused as ever. "You don't look like the type who's into things like that."
"What did you think I was into?"
"Make-up and clothes?"
Pfft. Bruh, I can't even pick out a party dress on my own. Plus, putting on makeup is like doing Physics homework.
"I'm not really into those."
His smile became wider. "Miss Beatrice, you're interesting."
I almost choked on my pudding again. I think he was secretly planning to kill me by making me choke.
Is this what they call flirting!?
I began to panic. I badly needed a walkthrough for this event.
"Uhh...Thanks?"
"I thought you'd be more like Miss Momo, but it turns out you're quite different."
"Is that a good thing?"
"Perhaps." The expression he wore was unreadable. "Miss Momo is a unique gem who appears to despise my existence. I would probably be disappointed if you would come to dislike me too."
After we finished eating all the food, we left the café. Nathaniel offered to drive me home, but I didn't want to risk getting another stalker. I politely declined his offer, coming up with an excuse that I had to stop by a nearby store.
"I hope we'll see each other again soon, Miss Beatrice." He flashed one last smile before entering his car. "Please tell Miss Momo I said hi."
The car disappeared into the distance. I began walking home once it was completely out of sight.
He doesn't seem so bad. Though there's something about him that makes me feel a bit uneasy...
I attempted to think about it, but couldn't come up with anything.
Maybe it's too early to tell.



"Beatrice is a cheerful girl who loves food.
Gene is her silent and somewhat geeky best friend who has a secret: He's actually the famous phantom thief Auriel!

When Beatrice meets Auriel one night in a library and decides to capture the the masked law-breaker herself, their relationship gets turned upside-down as Beatrice gets wrapped up in the dazzling world of secret societies and underground research."

Chapter 2 : WTF? 

He woke up in a desert. It was far too real to think it was a dream. This was different, the wind, the heat, the sand under his feet, the red dice in his hand. 

What the… ?

He started to panic, tried to find a logical answer. He was still wearing his pyjamas. He felt the dice in his hand and looked at it. Was it some kind of joke ?

He yelled.


"Heeeeey ! Anyone here ?!

Of course nobody answered. He started to walk aimlessly. 

Time passed, and the scenery started to change. Remains of building appeared, he wandered inside some of them unable to find any clue about where he was.

"Come on ! What kind of cliche post apocalyptic setting is this ? 

He joked about it cause it was the only thing his reason told him to. It was the only thing to do to avoid the fear that grew. He watched his share of post apocalyptic movies, read books, mangas, played games that all had this kind of background. He was no chosen one, no road warrior and even less the only (supposed to be) heir of some deadly martial art. His chances of survival were low. He was a below average 30 yo man, that spent most (all) of his free time watching shows or playing video games. He had no skill or no particular knowledge.

"Meeting a fellow human certainly won't be a good thing. 

He already pictured himself chased by some kind of biker gang and enslaved, spending the rest of his short lifespan whored and beat around. 

He needed a weapon but everything had long been scavenged. Even the road sign had been taken away, the only thing left was concrete. 

Water would soon be a problem to. Was he going to die like that? Dehydrated in the middle of a ruined city? For how long had he been there already? 

"Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!

He remember the dice in the palm of his hand, realizing he was holding it so strong his hand went numb. 

"It has to be it! 

Wishing the hardest he could he threw the dice in a backhand. 

"Do something! 

Of course nothing happened. 

It's not the good words. It has to be something else. 

He tried again and again, trying everything he could think of with different gestures. Out of breath he realized that was most certainly how the common crazy people of those worlds all started their career. 

He wanted to cry out of despair but water was an expense. He wasn't sure it really had and effect, but still he clenched his teeth and pummeled the ground finding himself enough energy to throw another tantrum. 

A quick noise made him jump. He looked around but couldn't see anything. He grew scared, thinking of all the noise he made. He sat down and took a deep breath, trying for the last time to find any sense in this. 

***
Time passed, long minutes and hours. He kept on wandering in the desert. He wanted to die and figured it would be the quickest way. Problem was he wasn't feeling thirsty or hungry, even if the sun was high in the sky he didn't felt any sign of dehydration. Not the slightest headache. 

Come on, is this hell ? For all I know I could have died in my bed, and this would be the afterlife ? 

He looked at the dice again. What was the message here ? He raised his eyes at the deep blue sky. 
That's when he saw the giant pillar falling from the sky.

***

As long as he remembered he never was able to cover such a distance running. Like food or water, stamina wasn't a problem anymore. 
To his eyes it was nothing more than a proof of his status as a ghost. 

As he grew closer he started to feel the vibrations in the air. The sand was shaking, as if a giant worm was gonna burst out of the desert.
He smiled remembering how you were supposed to run to avoid catching the worm attention, "in a unstructured way according to random sequences".
He stopped running 300 meters away from the giant structure. 
It looked like a giant column. A giant column that was slowly digging it's way in the ground. 
It sounded familiar and he was too shocked to move.
That was how the main villain of their game drained the planets of whatever was needed to fuel what must have been his main goal. 
He got close to it, remembering the description the GM made of it. The runes crafted on a pitch black metal that seemed to be the only component, the slow pace of the drilling.  He remembered what happened to the planets and everyone on it at the end of the process. 

"What the… Oh come on man, what am I supposed to do?

He touched it, the runes lightened for a while, but that was all. 

"Some kind of sequence huh? With not a single clue? Really?

He touched all the runes he could for a while before taking the dice out of his pocket. 
That was the only thing game related, as he approached the dice from the pillar the runes spread themselves and the building opened. 
He laughed in relief.
It was a door size space. 
A space that stayed in front of him even it the drill kept on turning going deeper into the ground. 
There was no other options.
He went inside. 

***

Everything was dark, so dark he couldn't see anything. Aimlessly he started walking. Around him he felt the drill moving. 

He had to think, remember everything that was game related. He took a deep breath to gain composure. 

Those things were used by the main villain to drain the worlds from their energy or whatever.
Once the drilling/draining complete, it was supposed to return to the main villain HQ, where everything would be extracted and processed. And ? 

And nothing. 

They didn't go far enough for him to know anything more. That was clearly an end game thing. Still he knew one thing : taking the trip all the way was a very bad idea, there was no such place where stowaway were welcomed. He was fucked. 

"Come on! Why don't you kill me right now uh? 

As if someone answered a countdown appeared on the wall. 
In a few minutes the drilling would be over. 

"How is it supposed to help me? Thank you! Thank you for letting me know when I'll be dead! That's a relief! 

He punched the wall and hurt his hand. 

He sat down and waited for the numbers to reach 0, Accepting his fate. 

I'm so dead. So, so, so dead. 

The drilling stopped at the end of the countdown, only a few seconds later the pillar started to move. It was the same as if he was in an elevator going up. Then the light went on. 

He looked around there was no machinery, no nothing he was just sitting in an empty white room. 

Again time passed, the elevator feeling changed into an airplane one.

He walked in circles, thinking of any option he had.

Bang! 

A giant shock projected him to the ceiling. Something had just hit the pillar, and the pillar was now falling. Falling in space? Was that even possible? His insides were shaking. The fall seemed endless, the changes of pressure made him lost consciousness.

Over the last five days, the two spent every moment in joy.
Liu Yao took Jiang Chen to all the famous attractions. They did everything from surfing at Wuzhizhou Island, enjoying the sunlight at Yalong Bay, wandering along the beach, to leaving names on a couple lock. Liu Yao engraved Jiang Chen’s name, but Jiang Chen left Chen Lele’s name.
The happiest time was always the briefest, but it was pleasant.
Until they went their separate ways, Jiang Chen didn’t see any more sorrows or tears.
"Sir, would you like a cup of coffee?" The flight attendant's gentle voice disrupted Jiang Chen’s thought.
"I’ll have one please."
"Ok, please wait a moment."
A cup of steamy coffee was soon in front of Jiang Chen. He stared at the rising steam and smiled.
[That was a pleasant trip after all. I wonder if I will ever meet her again.]
He thought about it some more, and an even bigger smile appeared on his face. He didn’t know why he wanted to smile.
He glanced at the pristine cloud outside the window and the middle-aged professional sleeping beside him. Jiang Chen finished the still steamy cup of coffee.
It was bitter, but a little sweet.
The brief Sanya vacation came to an end. Jiang Chen walked out of the Wanghai airport with his luggage.
The noisy metropolitan.
He took in a deep breath of the smog-filled air and flagged down a taxi.
"To Bailian."
Sitting on the passenger side, Jiang Chen took out his almost outdated Samsung phone. He was about to call Xia Shiyu when he noticed a message popped up.
Weibo?
He opened the Weibo app that he hasn't opened for a while. He was surprised to find out someone @ him.
<A pleasant trip, thank you for your company @Jiang Chen>
Along the text was also a picture of an airplane taking off. Jiang Chen noticed that it was his flight.
[This girl, she went to my terminal without telling me.] Jiang Chen smiled. They said goodbye at the airport, but he didn’t expect her to be there to watch him depart.
With a bit of narcissism, Jiang Chen swiped the screen up with his finger. The comments on the bottom consisted primarily of people wondering who Jiang Chen was. To begin with, she was not a famous actress, so there were only a few comments.
He thought about for a moment before half-joking replied.
<Haha, I really enjoy your superb acting skill. How about I invest in a movie and ask you to be the female lead? : )>
<Deal. You said it!>
[Instant reply.]
"Hey man, are you on Weibo?"
"Oh? Do you have Weibo as well?" Jiang Chen asked the taxi driver.
"Of course, it is pretty fun watching people make memes online. You are looking at a celebrity’s Weibo right?"
"Hehe, yes, how do you know?" Jiang Chen curiously asked.
"There is a special symbol beside their name. Look closely." The taxi driver skillfully guided Jiang Chen, "Though to be honest, these celebrities’ Weibo are boring. They are too busy to reply to you. You must be new on here."
Jiang Chen smiled in agreement.
He wanted to reply <There is no way you believe my joke right?>, but that post was gone.
"What happens if a post is gone?"
"They deleted it, it's common." The taxi driver rolled his eyes as if he was an expert.
Deleted?
[This girl.] Jiang Chen sighed. The situation was funny to him.
It’s only a movie after all, how much would it even cost?
Inside the Jade Restaurant, Jiang Chen quietly waited at the table. His eyes lit up as soon as he saw a graceful figure approach him. He signaled for the person to come over.
"You finally appeared. You don’t even pick up your phone." Xia Shiyu gave him a hard stare. The grin on his face made Xia Shiyu irate.
She has been taking care of the company in the past few days. She even used her own money to make sure everything could be finished on time. To ensure she completed Jiang Chen’s task, she had to find lawyers, bureaus, and banks. She even went to their future office.
However, he was nowhere to be seen. Jiang Chen left all the dirty work to her and went on a vacation by himself.
She took in a deep breath to stop an almost inevitable emotional explosion.
"Don’t be so emotional, I’ll bring you next time. Sanya is a beautiful place." Jiang Chen grinned with no signs of guilt.
"This is your company. You have to at least show up to something. You should come with me to the bureau this afternoon. I have all the documents here. Take a look." She placed the bag on the table and ignored Jiang Chen’s invitation.
"Thank you so much." Jiang Chen didn’t pick up the documents. Instead, he genuinely stared at Xia Shiyu’s emotionless face.
"At least you have some conscience," she hissed at him. Although her face still looked cold, Jiang Chen felt she was no longer angry.
"I’ll go with you in the afternoon. Let’s not talk about work. Order whatever you want, this one is on me. Oh, you paid for the fees right? The company will reimburse you for it."
Xia Shiyu was not humble and immediately ordered a few dishes. She glanced at Jiang Chen but did not even see a slight change in his grinning face. She was frustrated.
[That was ineffective.] She thought as she didn’t manage to vent her anger.
Jiang Chen didn’t notice her intention.
He still had one hundred thousand dollars left which far exceeded his expectation.
"Is there something bothering you?" Although she kept a stern face, Jiang Chen still noticed she was slightly distracted.
"Yes, I am worried about the company’s future." Xia Shiyu dived straight into the problem, "If our strategy is to use advanced technology, we have no way of gaining a competitive advantage as a newcomer."
"But don’t new company have more growth opportunities?" With her concern in his mind, Jiang Chen replied.
"That’s for a company with a strong core competitive advantage." Xia Shiyu stared at Jiang Chen, who showed no sign of concern, with a look of defeat. "Do you know technology? You probably don’t even remember calculus."
"Is that even a question." Jiang Chen laughed. "Who remembers that stuff after graduation. Just because I don’t understand it doesn’t mean other people don’t understand it. You don’t have to worry about research and development. I’ll give you a hint. Every company have a focus, such as game development. We can just springboard off of this idea and enter the cell phone market following our success…"
"Stop right there." Xia Shiyu interrupted Jiang Chen’s speech. She rubbed her temples. "Cell phone games? Web games? Or Massive Multiplayer Online games on the PC end? Based on the current market condition, I recommend cell phone games. Regarding the cell phone market, it’s great that our founder has a vision for the future, but one step at a time is critical for sustainable growth."
"Of course, so we will do it one step at a time." He casually waved his hand. "Also, this is not only my company, but it is also your company. I’ll give you 5% stake in the company, so keep up the good work."
It was not only until years later did Xia Shiyu realize what tremendous amount of wealth was given to her. Of course, that was the aftermath.
In the afternoon, Jiang Chen went to the bureau with Xia Shiyu to take care of the paperwork. Xia Shiyu was indeed CEO (secretary) quality. Jiang Chen only needed to sign a couple of documents before it was approved. Xia Shiyu took care of the entire, tedious process.
Jiang Chen was extremely pleased. He didn’t study business administration, so his understanding in the area was extremely limited. The best kind of president, in his ideal world, was the kind who only needed to the set the direction of the company. A trustworthy CEO would take care of the rest. If he had to consider all the fine details, he would be frustrated to death.
Xia Shiyu did exceptionally well at this point. She prepared everything in advance.
They only needed a part time accountant to complete the tax process. Jiang Chen took Xia Shiyu’s recommendation to hire a part-time accountant. They only needed to pay 200 dollars in salary per month. Most of the new companies did this in the early stage.
After everything was completed. It was already 5 o’clock. Jiang Chen used the opportunity to treat Xia Shiyu again before they went their separate ways. With the stable income and debt crisis being resolved, Xia Shiyu moved back to her original apartment. Jiang Chen, also, headed back to his familiar apartment.
He took his luggage and returned to his apartment.
He refreshed his Weibo while lying on his bed a couple of time and teased Liu Yao for a bit before he got back into the real business.
He had a pleasant vacation, but his return time was also approaching. Therefore, preparation was necessary.
He looked on Taobao for food. Canned food was the primary choice because of the ease of storage. He ordered two boxes of beef, pork, and fish. Then, for a balanced diet, he also purchased cans of vegetables and fruits. Finally, he bought instant noodles and crackers as well. He was not going to eat it those himself, but it would be smart to sell it.
In addition, Jiang Chen purchased a bunch of female clothing. Don’t be confused, he had no weird fetishes. He ordered some for Sun Jiao and Yao Yao.
Within two days, a courier delivered the almost mountain high stacks of boxes to Jiang Chen’s place. He generously took out two hundred dollar bills, and the courier happily moved the boxes for him. It’s good that he didn’t have any furniture, for the boxes made it impossible to maneuver through his living room.
With sandpaper in his hand, he began to work.
He removed the manufacturing data and location on the can and threw it into the storage dimension. Although tedious, he had no other choice at this stage.
It would be better if he could directly receive shipments from the packaging companies without any pictures or logos.
The storage dimension’s size grew substantially. It managed to fit the size of half a living room’s worth of boxes inside. Jiang Chen guessed it had to do with the gene vaccine, and it was great news for him.
The storage of these boxes cost about two energy crystals, and it would cost the same to take it all out. There were around a couple hundred energy crystals inside the dimension, so the cost did not even slightly bother Jiang Chen.
He also purchased groceries from the supermarket. He bought an ample amount of rice, fresh vegetables, eggs, and meat. After they managed to fix the fridge in the mansion of the post-apocalyptic world, it can store plenty of food. Once they manage to move a few more fridges from the buildings outside, the food storage ability would grow exponentially.
Ideally, it would be more convenient if he had a walk-in freezer. He should check the restaurants in the post-apocalyptic world; they should be easy to repair.
Before he headed home, he remembered something. He walked out of the pet store with a hamster.
When he got home, everything was ready to go. Jiang Chen picked up his familiar backpack, but then raised his eyebrows and put it down again.
Since Sun Jiao already had a clue of what’s going on, it’s probably time to tell her and Yao Yao.
When they went to the Sixth Street, he didn’t carry toast with him. He stored the toast in the storage dimension. Sun Jiao must have noticed it, but she didn’t ask. Since she had a lot of trust in him, it was no longer necessary to keep things a secret.
[It’s better to confess to her. It will be easier in the future, and I no longer need to be secretive about things.]
Jiang Chen made up his mind. He’s prepared to selectively tell parts of his secret to Sun Jiao.
With the confused hamster in his hand, he sat on his bed and took a deep breath.
Apocalypse, I am back!


After the nuclear war, ruins stretch across the landscape in the apocalypse.
If you accidentally survived on the wasteland, then you must be ready to face the endless hunger, ceaseless dangers, the mad zombies at night, and the peculiar mutant creatures that are the aftermath of constant radiation.
But for Jiang Chen, this place is heaven.
Mansions standing tall, luxurious cars parked on the street, high tech products and gold abandoned everywhere.
What? You were the president of a game development company before the war? You were responsible for the development of the 3D virtual reality online multiplayer game? Well, that’s great, why don’t you come work for me. Your salary is two pieces of bread a day.
iPhone? Ultra thin design? Don’t you see that the phone I invented is thinner than a condom?
Aircraft carrier? Fighter jets? Oh, I have those things as well, but they are designed for space combat.
Watch the story of Jiang Chen, who possesses the ability to travel through space and time, as he witnesses the creation of an empire stretched across space and time...

again, this entire thing is merely a work of fiction. copying my story in any way is prohibited. the characters' original real life personality will be slightly altered to fit the plot, and their ages as well. i promise i hate myself for doing all of this too lol.

From ordinary teens to survivors, a group of friends fight for their lives through the war against the infected; suffocating in a dark labyrinth of choked up emotions and loathed memories.

After reading for a while he realised it was 4:30. The laptop was still on. He remembered that he had set the gym time from 5 PM to 6:30 PM. He wore a pair of trousers and vest and went to the gym.

Supriya was starting to make dinner when she noticed that he was going out. " Where are you going ? ",she asked.

" Gym. "

She nodded her head and sighed while turning. Shuvam went to the gym. It was his first time going to the gym after a year or so. So he decided to stick with basic exercises for the first week.

At 6:20, he was done with all the exercises. He took a shower and came back. He once again started reading novels. He had dinner and at about 11 PM, the computer made an buzzing sound notifying him that one of the works had been completed.

The work for the terrain was completed. He then asked the 3D model maker to add trees that could be damaged due to reasons like chopping down, gun shots, explosives , etc and also add in any sort of roads and pathways. But the pathways were meant to be turned into unmanaged roads and pathways with potholes all over them.

This was scheduled to be finished after 1.5 days. He then remembered something and ordered the programmer not to make a in game video recorder which would record the video of the game without the need of any external video recording software. This was scheduled to be done after 10 days.

Shuvam would read novels or watch anime or read manga, his life just kept going on and on like that. But it felt really empty. He would always go to the gym at time and that was the only time he would get out of the apartment.

Like this a month went by, the 3D model makers had already created rivers , post apocalyptic styled buildings for all the buildings of Nepal, mutated versions of animals found in Nepal, a varieties of different classed zombies and a customizable character that would use the webcamera for making the in game character look like the real person.

The facial recognition system for this in game software was made by the programmer bot. The bot had also made a way of connecting worlds any country's bank account or any credit or debit card or PayPal or any other E-portals.

You would just have to select your country and all the lists for the banks available at that country or e commerce services available there would be there for purchasing or selling the in-game currency i.e. crystals.

The music for sounds made by any vehicles or zombies had also been completed but this time it had only taken 5 days.

The 3D modeller bots were currently working on an futuristic hand watch to display stats, weapons, vehicles, bases across the country and the AI inside the map. It was scheduled to to be done after 20 days when it started and 15 days were still remaining.

Due to the photorealistic effect of the 3D models and map, Shuvam had a worry that it would require high spec PC to run this game. So he asked Andy if anything could be done.

" It is quite easy. I will make the programmer bot to make a code that will ensure that except a few things such as compressed 3D models and animations the computer does not need to do anything. All the processing will be carried out in the server but first, you only have about 500 GB of remaining space in your laptop. So user is advised to use the $25,000 transferred to your account and rent some servers for us. "

" How much space do I need to rent ? "

" 100 TB for storing any games and 200 TB for the hosting of the game Crystal wars and storing any bots required in it. "

"..." he just nodded with a blank expression. He then went to Google cloud and checked the prices. He could rent 1 GB space for a price of $0.026 for a month.

He used around $8000 to rent 300 TB for a month. He had calculated that by the end of this subscription he would have released his game and it would start raking in money that could be used for the managing of the game.

The programmer not was then notified to make a program to use the server for computing. Shuvam asked Andy about the capacity of user this 200 TB could handle. It answered, " about 10 million. "

He would need to rent more space if the player base increased. He also asked the minimum specification with which the game could be played. He was a bit delighted when he heard the required specifications for his godly game. It required 3GB of free RAM, 750 MB graphics card, 2.1 GHz processor. This was pretty much manageable by any gamer. So he thought that this might help more people play it. It was also convenient to play as playing the game would require the internet speed of 100 kilobytes per second.

Nowadays this was a really small speed so he was ecstatic when he thought that even his brother back home could play this. He suddenly remembered someone else whom he could have given a GM account to and grew sad.

He had decided to put the issue back after all he couldn't let her memories get in way of his revenge. Making the first game and using the money raked in was the only way for him to get that sucker.

The college he wanted to go to was also starting admission. He visited the college and enquired about the fees. It had been increased to $ 9,000 for the whole course of four years. He went to the bank and paid the whole amount. He took the voucher from the bank and took his admission. Because of his ' act ' he had gotten chance to meet with the dean of the college.

The dean treated him well and chatted about the course and ow he was happy to get students. One  know that not many people were willing to do game designing in Nepal. People here pursue a little stable careers like being an engineer or doctor or pilot.

( Author's note :- lol my own graprents ( Mom's side ) were like your brother is beyond saving he wants to make stupid games. You should not do this. To my brother. They said this to my younger brother. He told me this and I was like rolling on the floor laughing #bed_not_floor when I heard it. )

He realized that it would be a drag to not have a means of transport so he first of all went to a driving centre which teaches how to ride bikes. He issued the time 3-4 for a course of half a month.

Days quickly passed by. His game was near completion. Just a few tweaks such as last bit of zombie AI was remaining to be done. It would take another 10 hours for the AI to finish. Everything else had already been done. The animations, 3d models, controls, etc were done. There was also an auction house set up in order to sell or auction things. The game dev that is our Shuvam would get to shave off crystals from users at the rate of 5% per transaction.

The crystals were also up for sale. It would cost 1$ to buy 10 crystals. The crystals were the currency in the apocalyptic world. The crystals so bought could give one with some boost but it couldn't make you OP. It would at very best make you 20% stronger than common player base in case you could find someone to sell you their loots. All the revenue so earned would be transferred to a dark web account he had made earlier. After this month, he had ordered Andy to use this money to rent the servers and to hire the killers.

 The guns and weapons could be gotten after killing the zombies which are at least 1st class or higher. The vehicles were with the AI and could be bought if  your relation with a NPC was very good. It would still cost a fortune to do so.

Various guilds, mercenary groups, parties could be set up. Communication channels could be set up and you could chat using microphone or text messages.

Various classes such as weapon designer, vehicle designer, armor designer, etc were available. Recepies for such weapons, armors and vehicles could be found from various bosses. At first these classes may be crystal burning ones but later on after a month of release of the game, customization of the weapon would be available which would allow such weapons designers to make major changes in the weapons or vehicles and make custom tailored ones.

Various dungeons were set up too. All in all it was one of those advanced VRMMO games you see in the novels but this MMO game was one that you could play on the computer with a flat screen. The game was good. The photorealistic graphics was the main point and it could be operated from any average Joe computer too.

Shuvam got an software that is an amazing piece of tech. See how he uses it to make his career as an anonymous game developer who is known for for making the most complexed games of uncrackable nature.
Watch him make his dreams come true, help his family, get admired by gamers and be the best indie game developer.

The recruitment ads that they released recently were divided into two different types, one for workers who were willing to come here to do a job, and one for the residents of this new base. The people who wanted to change their environment were welcome to join the new base. 
Except for the ones who harbored evil intentions, or people like post-apocalyptic robbers, the new base would accept almost all sorts of applicants. And of course, the ones who chose to join the new base would be paid well. 
The new residents of the base would be put in the positions which fit their contributions to the base.
That was a common rule in all bases.
"Did anything happen to Miss. Lu?" Mrs. Lin asked with concern.
Lin Wenwen smiled and responded, "She should be fine. Ugh, I want to tell you about what happened in Sea City Base yesterday."
Hearing that, the others immediately turned to her with curiosity. Only Mrs. Lin showed a trace of worry on her face. However, she didn't ask any further question, but walked into the lobby with the others. 
Yuan Tianxing said to Chen Yuting and Lin Feng, "Yesterday in Sea City Base, Yang Chao and his people were destroyed by Chief Wu and Chief Zou. Yang Chao died." 
Chen Yuting and the others who had just walked into the lobby all froze when they heard that, gazing at Yuan Tianxing in disbelief. 
"What? He died? How did that happen so suddenly? Our Chief wasn't ready to take action, was he?" Chen Yuting asked with surprise.
Yuan Tianxing responded while walking straight to the few clean couches in the lobby, "In fact, something happened the day you guys left. Because of that, Chief Wu quickly launched a counter strike. All that happened was also the result of some troublemaker's deeds." 
While speaking, he laughed with a complicated expression.
Chen Yuting and the others curiously surrounded him. "Tell us what exactly happened there!"
Yuan Tianxing said, "That night, one of Yang Chao's Deputy Chief died. The man named Piao Gecang was bitten by a zombie that came from nowhere. After that, he went to the research institute of Sea City Base for some reason, and started a fight against some people in the research institute. At last, some other guy killed him. One researcher died as well."
Hearing Piao Gecang's name, Chen Yuting paused for a second. But soon, he stared at Yuan Tianxing in shock and said, "What did you say? Piao Gecang died?"
That man had given him a hard time not long ago. At that time, Chen Yuting didn't know that the latter was the man who caused his Jen's death yet. He was only surprised because that man who had troubled him not long ago was suddenly dead.
Yuan Tianxing said, "Yeah! More than two people died that night. Yang Chao's sister, Yang Yan also died."
"Eh? Wasn't she who encouraged her son to harass Wenwen? She died as well? Who killed her?" Lin Feng asked.
The others quickly glanced at Lin Wenwen.
Yuan Tianxing also gave Lin Wenwen a glance when answering the question, "Miss. Lu said that she did it. But, I heard that Yang Yuan's head and arm were bitten off by some kind of beast, and that she died very miserably! None of her people saw how she died."
Lin Feng and the others glanced at each other in shock. "Miss. Lu? How come she's involved in it too?"
"We're not sure," said Yuan Tianxing, "But that's what she said. She also found that a level-seven superpowered man on Yang Chao's side had been hiding in Sea City Base. Next day at the meeting of all the senior base administrators, they started the war. What caused the war was that Yang Chao had run some kind of virus experiment with hundreds of people from Sea City Base, and gotten them all killed. Some of his subordinates were infected as well. At last, they all became half-zombie, half-human monsters, and ended up being killed." 
"Are you saying that he ran experiments on live human beings? My God!" Mrs. Lin exclaimed. 
After the apocalypse, the world had become sparsely populated. However, Yang Chao actually ran experiments on healthy people. That was truly insane! Also, judging by Yuan Tianxing's words, those people didn't volunteer, but were all forced. 
Yuan Tianxing nodded and continued, "Yang Chao thought no one knew about his secret experiment. However, Chief had collected all the information about it since long ago. So on that day, he uncovered it and joined hands with the other leader of Sea City Base to banish Yang Chao." 
Chen Yuting wore an angry face. Hearing Yuan Tianxing say that Yang Chao was only banished, he asked with discontentment, "Why did they only banish him? His kind of people should be destroyed!" 
His Jen was also injected with the zombie virus, and now, he learned that Yang Chao and his people had been hurting more innocent people in that way.
Yuan Tianxing shook his head and explained, "They banished him, so he wasn't a base leader anymore. That was only the first step. The second step was the key… He was executed for murdering hundreds of people. That was an explanation to the people in the base." 
Chen Yuting calmed down slightly after hearing that. "You're right…"
"Captain Chen, you don't need to be angry," said Lin Feng, "As Tianxing said, Yang Chao has died. All the people who deserved death are already dead." 
After comforting Chen Yuting, Lin Feng continued, "And then? What happened at last?"
"At last, Yang Chao became a monster," said Yuan Tianxing, "Chief Wu and a few others killed him joint-handedly. But, I heard that the man who was there to help him ran away upon realizing that the situation was unfavorable."
"Eh? He ran away? Yang Chao must be so angry about it," said Mrs. Lin with surprise. 
Yuan Tianxing smilingly nodded and said, "Perhaps. We weren't on the scene, so we don't know how he reacted."
The others glanced at each other. Picturing what happened at that time, they all wanted to laugh.
"Where did he find such an unreliable help? Who is that man?" Mrs. Lin laughed at first, then asked.
"Miss. Lu said that he's a post-apocalyptic robber," said Lin Wenwen.
"Post-apocalyptic robber? Yang Chao was really insane. He not only turned himself into a monster, but also ganged up with a robber from the outside. He could really do anything," Mrs. Lin sighed. 
Yuan Tianxing suddenly thought of something. "Speaking of that post-apocalyptic robber," he said with a serious face, "we need to be careful. Miss. Lu said that he had watched us for a whole night. His target should be Wenwen. Now, Yang Chao has died, and he has escaped. But still, he's a robber. We can't tell for sure if he'll keep following us."
Hearing that a level-seven post-apocalyptic robber might be targeting them, all Lin Family people turned vigilant.
"That's possible! Post-apocalyptic robbers are all vengeful. They'll do whatever they can to get whatever they want. We'll be in serious troubles if he has his eyes on us!" Lin Feng wore a grim look as well.
