Chapter 2: The End of the World is Hard to Find Work
Then, Bu Fan arrived in front of the Sky Net connector and prepared to enter the eighth base city's Sky Net region.
Tianwang, similar to the modern world's internet, is a virtual network!
But this world's web is detached from modern hardware such as computer keyboards, and only requires a spiritual sensor to create images in the virtual world through mental fluctuations.
In Bofan's view, this is equivalent to the virtual networks he saw in those online games in his previous life, and he can travel the world with his spirit.
The origin of the Sky Net is unclear, as it was a federal project and not a personal operation.
However, the emergence of the Sky Net has greatly changed the lives of the people in Base City, especially alleviating the pressure on people's living.
At least, the originally planned trading market sports stadium and other messy places in the base city were demolished and rebuilt by the base government, and changed into residential buildings!
And the survivors' transactions, entertainment and other activities can also be completed in the Sky Net, because each person's Sky Net interface is bound to their own ID card, so the internal transactions of the network can also get sufficient credit guarantee.
As soon as he entered Tiān Wǎng with his own room's dazzling mirror, Bù Fán suddenly felt that he had arrived in a spacious great hall.
This is a large hall similar to an ancient castle, with rows of rooms in front of the hall, and each room has a big name on it.
Trading Area! Entertainment Area! Recruitment Area......
Each door represents a project space within the Eighth Base City Tianwang, marked with both English and Chinese labels.
Bofan thought for a moment, walked to the front of the recruitment area, and then slowly pushed open the door. Afterwards, Chu Han felt as if he had arrived in front of another kind of city.
All he saw was the present moment in front of him, filled with all sorts of buildings, and each building had a different style. For example, what was in front of him was a four-story ancient Chinese pavilion, while on his left was a Baroque-style building.
Apart from this, on the streets below the building, there were many people coming and going, just like a modern market.
"Cotton Team recruiting a power-type warrior, requires combat strength of 3rd stage or above. Departing in three days to explore the W-12 area in the west of the city. Interested parties please contact us ASAP!"
"I'm a 2nd-class speed-type warrior, looking for companions to head to the N-3 area in the northern part of the city for some harvesting, brothers hurry up and gather 'round!"
"Tourist group for the E-7 district east of the city is now officially open for registration, handsome guys and beautiful girls who want to participate hurry up and sign up, limited spots available, first come first served!"
Bofan walked on the street, listening to the constant shouting sounds from both sides of the street. His originally curious expression had slowly turned into bitterness.
In the recruitment area, there are two ways to recruit. One is to pay expensive credit points to Tianwang Zhiniao, and Zhiniao will help you send recruitment advertisements, even more accurately analyze suitable candidates, and then send recruitment information. This not only saves time but also guarantees the credibility of the target objects.
Another simple way is to shout loudly in crowded places and form a wild team, but the kind of people recruited depends on one's luck.
But now Bofan, after entering, just discovered that he doesn't even have the qualifications to mix with this wild team.
Even for these informal wild teams, the required team members have combat strength requirements. For example, the team that just shouted requires a warrior of at least third-class combat strength.
And what is called combat power is also a consideration of the survivors of the federal government in the end times for so many years, a kind of ranking people's strength!
The lowest is Warrior Disciple, followed by Warrior, War Master, War Ancestor, and War Emperor, with each level further divided into nine stages!
The lowest level of combat strength is the Warrior, and because of his ancestral physique, Steph's combat strength is quite embarrassing, not even reaching the first-level test standard, which means he is what they call a Warrior Zero.
It wasn't until now that Bofan finally understood why his predecessor had always stayed at home and refused to communicate with others, because someone like him was a total waste of space.
Even the standards of a mixed wild team can't be reached, let alone going to those regular forces for an interview.
But in reality, his guess was indeed verified. After walking around the entire street, Bu Fan did not find a job he could apply for.
He also dared to ask a few questions, but when people knew his combat power level, he only got cold eyes and ridicule.
"Is my doomsday survival journey going to end here? Next, I'll become a homeless drifter in the world of doomsday? And then die miserably in the mouths of zombies and mutated beasts?"
After searching in vain for a while, Bufan sat down on a long bench beside him, thinking silently and gloomily in his heart.
"Why don't we go find that sister of his and ask for her help?" Bufan suddenly remembered that his ex-girlfriend had a genius-like younger sister, and a glimmer of hope rose up in his heart.
However, the memories inherited from his predecessor suddenly shattered his fantasy, because the memories clearly told him that his sister Bu Yan had a very bad relationship with her previous body. Except for the day of their parents' death anniversary, when they would meet once a year, the two would not have any contact at all during the rest of the time.
Because Bu Yan was stubbornly convinced that it was Bu Fan's ordinariness that led to their parents' double death, if there was no Bu Fan, her world should be colorful and happy. So, she attributed her parents' death to Bu Fan's head, plus she had been trained by the Base Academy since childhood, and had little contact with Bu Fan, and the two people's emotions had become so dull that they were almost non-existent.
In addition, over the past three hundred years, many human emotional concepts have become very subverted, such as kinship. Many people's minds do not even exist with a sense of kinship.
According to Bo Fan's knowledge, in the base, women selling their bodies is a legal thing, and their reason for selling their bodies is not for survival, but for rewards!
The base encourages childbirth and gives special preferential treatment to pregnant women, taking care of their lives throughout the pregnancy. In addition, after the child is born, if the child's talent detection is qualified, the pregnant woman will also receive a very generous reward!
And they can freely choose whether to personally raise the infant or completely entrust it to the base for care!
The consequence of such a society is that people's concept of emotions has become increasingly indifferent, and many people still think that children are a burden. Having one's own children and forming a complete family like ordinary parents is already a minority group.
Just as Bofan was trapped in a dilemma, in a luxurious room with an oriental charm, the silhouettes of two women slowly condensed in the room.
"Huh, Mei'er sister, the guy we're looking for seems to have entered Tianwang!" A delicate young girl exclaimed while reading her message prompt.
Next to her, a stunningly beautiful woman with a fiery figure suddenly raised her head after hearing her words, revealing her exquisite and flawless face. A hint of astonishment flashed across her face, followed by a gentle smile as she softly said: "Just in time, we've finally caught this little guy off guard. Let's proceed according to our plan!"
"Alright, Mei'er sister, but once I find him, I'll make sure to teach him a lesson for wasting our time like this. Hmph!" The delicate girl said, still fiddling with the settings on the Sky Web Brain, while speaking to the stunning woman beside her in an annoyed tone.
Xuě Mèi'er didn't respond, but instead smiled and watched the little beauty's movements, waiting for Bù Fán to take the bait himself.
