The end of the world: mountain and sea disasters

Didi~didi~

The light green signal light on the door handle flashes.

The iron door with some rust was pushed open from the outside.

The cold wind in late autumn rushes into this forest hunter's sentry tower.

"It seems that we need to buy furniture as soon as possible, otherwise this winter will be difficult."

Yu Ke, carrying his luggage, stood at the door, looking at the empty room in front of him, and whispered to himself rather helplessly.

This is the forest hunter sentry tower on the outskirts of Jinghu Forest, and it is also the base of Yu Ke's future life.

If you have bad luck.

This watchtower will also become his tomb or first death scene.

Since he successfully applied for the job as a ranger hunter, Yu Ke has received concern from relatives and friends at home, for fear that he would not be able to think about it.

However, as a time traveler, compared to staying in a strange city, facing people who look very friendly but actually don't know anyone all day long, and racking his brains to get along with them, Yu Ke just feels freer to be alone.

Moreover, in today's chaotic world, the city may not be safe.

About five years ago, the world's environment began to experience changes, which eventually developed into a catastrophic event that swept the world.

At first it was just a rare meteor shower, a group of mice that mutated into the size of a calf, and a storm rolled up in the deep sea, until these disasters connected from dots to a piece, and finally swept the world, closely related to everyone!

The natural world is gradually becoming unfamiliar, and a special era called the "catastrophe" has arrived!

A dense forest composed of trees that can grow hundreds of meters high in half a month buries the entire town; thousands of wasps that are as big as domestic large dogs build nests on top of buildings; a mountain-like overlord octopus capsizes a freighter , hundreds of sailors became snacks; the rhinoceros, like a truck, crushed the zoo's fence and knocked over the anti-riot vehicle that came to intercept it.

Incidents like these dominate the world's news until people get used to them.

That’s right, it’s not that disasters end over time, but that they happen so often that no one thinks it’s weird anymore.

The previous family was submerged by a sudden flash flood, which allowed Yu Ke, a visitor from another world, to successfully travel through.

Frankly speaking, Yu Ke is really not happy about his time travel.

In his previous life, he had a happy family. Even if his job was average, he could support the whole family. At least he would be able to live comfortably for the rest of his life.

On the other hand, it is clear that the world is heading towards an unprecedented natural catastrophe in great strides. It is not an exaggeration to say that the end of the world is approaching.

In the face of global environmental disasters, the disasters and survival pressure that ordinary people will face are unimaginable.

You were happy before time travel, but you may die from disaster at any time after time travel.

What is the purpose of this time travel?

At least we need to ask for his opinion as a time traveler, right?

Fortunately, Yu Ke did not cross over naked.

After closing the door and walking into the house, Yu Ke sat directly on the edge of the simple wooden bed in the corner. He glanced at the communication devices and desks placed against the wall on the other side and calmed down. Two professional labels suddenly appeared in front of him:

Patrolling hunter (seven points blue, three points white), teacher (light blue)!

When Yu Ke first traveled to this world, he accidentally discovered this "ability" that came with him.

After a period of exploration, Yu Ke called it the "professional label system."

Simply put, this system will generate a label based on his occupation.

Of course, that alone makes no sense.

What really matters to Yu Ke is that this tag can be upgraded and provide him with special abilities.

For example, the teacher label he initially received.

After time traveling, because he didn't understand the situation of his predecessor at all, Yu Ke decided to use the death of his parents as an excuse to resign and take a break to avoid friends of his predecessor who might find abnormalities.

However, in the process of Yu Ke's final handover of work as a teacher, he noticed that as long as he did things consistent with his status as a teacher, the label would be dyed with wisps of light blue light.

When the light blue light completely filled the tag, he immediately gained his first ability, or trait.

【Extensive Knowledge】

This feature allows Yu Ke to achieve twice the result with half the effort when learning knowledge or skills in any field. In game terms, the experience acquisition rate is +50%.

It is precisely because of this trait that Yu Ke successfully completed a series of assessments for rangers in the six months after traveling through time, including but not limited to physical assessments, hunting skills, natural sciences, wilderness survival, and first aid.

When he successfully obtained his graduation certificate, the new profession of ranger hunter appeared in his professional label system.

At this time, Yu Ke has figured out how this system works.

He once thought about simply taking up a few more professions, so that he could continue to acquire various traits as long as he upgraded.

However, the reality is far from that easy.

If you want to upgrade your label and gain traits, the most important thing is to do things that are consistent with your professional label.

The problem is that one person doesn’t have that much time!

It was impossible for Yu Ke to be a bricklayer or a welder while devoting himself to being a teacher.

If he does this, it will only make it extremely difficult to upgrade all three professions.

Unless there is a special channel to speed up the acquisition of additional experience, Yu Ke still understands the principle of biting off more than he can chew.

In fact, in order to obtain the profession of ranger hunter, Yu Ke's teacher label has not been upgraded in the past six months because he has resigned from the school.

As for why I still do this after discovering the professional label system.

The reason is simple. Anyone with any brain knows that the world has become extremely turbulent in recent years, and the deterioration of the environment shows no signs of stopping.

It can be said that it is appropriate to call this era "catastrophe".

In this case, only strength is the key to determining the future.

As a time traveler, Yu Ke has no interest in leaving his safety in the hands of others, let alone dealing with those "familiar" strangers.

At present, his goal is very simple, to become as strong as possible so that he can live peacefully and comfortably in the days to come!

It would be best to make more money so that you can enjoy it when you return to Danhang City in the future.

Based on this, patrolling the forest as a hunter was Yu Ke’s carefully considered choice.

On the one hand, this profession is different from other hunter professions that were born due to the particularity of the Catastrophic Era.

Patrolling Hunters is the official compilation of Zhenger Ba Jing.

Most of Yu Ke's work involves real-time monitoring of environmental changes in the Jinghu Forest Zone, including changes in vegetation, lakes, and wild animals, and reporting them on time. Occasionally, he needs to cooperate with government staff to perform some field inspections and hunting tasks.

In other words, as long as Yu Ke works step by step, the professional label of ranger hunter will continue to gain experience, be extremely efficient, and will be upgraded soon. The label that is currently close to eight points of blue is the most intuitive reflection.

On the other hand, "treasure hunter" and "monster hunter" are popular nowadays and are touted in various ways.

It seems that the scenery outside is endless, attracting ordinary people to imitate.

In fact, these unrecognized occupations have no guarantees, and the casualty rate during field operations is extremely high.

Not only is it difficult to be recognized by the professional label system, most people who engage in this profession even have problems maintaining basic food and clothing. Only a few strong people or hunting groups can obtain huge rewards by relying on their actions in the wilderness.

On the other hand, it is because the environment inside and outside the city, or in other words, the world is very dangerous.

The job of a ranger hunter not only pays very well, but also provides a gun license and related weapons and equipment. This allows Yu Ke to easily and reasonably have access to weapons that can better protect him in the future and practice corresponding skills. skills.

More importantly, with weapons, Yu Ke can start his own hunting activities.

The reason why a ranger hunter has the suffix "Hunter" is because his job content includes hunting tasks.

Once a strange beast on the hunting list that may pose a threat to humans is discovered in the Jinghu Forest, Yu Ke can hunt it in exchange for government bounties and equipment, and at the same time accumulate career tag experience faster.

Taking into account the trait that the teaching profession brought to Yu Ke [encyclopedic knowledge], he had reason to believe that once the ranger hunter profession completed its initial upgrade, it would develop combat-related traits, which he was currently lacking.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time before evening, Yu Ke was going to do a general cleaning of the outpost, check the conditions of the rooms, and plan the rest of his life. At the same time, he was preparing to go hunting before evening, at least to get the meat for dinner.

The seventy-square-meter room is simply divided into two areas:

The bedroom, kitchen and studio are located in the same area. They are three-in-one and have the largest area. Unfortunately, some basic equipment is missing. The bedroom only has the most basic wooden bed and a set of army green bedding. There is nothing else. There is only one kitchen. Gas stove and few pots and pans.

Fortunately, the studio is normal and is set up in a corner of the room. In order to ensure that the General Administration can receive the news as soon as possible, it is also equipped with a complete set of network communication equipment and a computer with quite good configuration.

If you get bored in the future, you won’t have to worry about having nothing to pass the time.

The independent bathroom includes a toilet and a washroom, with a washing machine and solar water heater inside. These devices are connected to the water well and diesel generator in the camp below the sentry tower, which is enough to ensure his daily life alone.

The storage room and weapons storage are in the same single room, with the smallest area, about five square meters.

When Yu Ke checked, he found that in addition to a few work clothes and gun repair equipment, there were also some farm tools such as hoes, sickles, and kettles stored inside, as well as a few bags of seeds in the corners.

This was an unexpected surprise for Yu Ke.

Although it is late autumn now, he has already begun to daydream about the farming life in the coming spring.

After the initial cleaning, Yu Ke first compiled a list of his missing items, used the computer in the studio to log into the online mall and purchased them one by one, and then set the delivery point to a transfer station a few kilometers away, so that he could pick them up all at once. .

It's not that I don't want to set it up directly next to the guard tower, but it's surrounded by nearby forests and is outside the distribution area.

After doing all this, Yu Ke walked out of the door of the sentry tower with a cup of freshly brewed hot milk tea.

Looking around, all you can see is a sea of ​​forest composed of towering trees over a hundred meters high. However, because it is late autumn, most of the forest trees have begun to lose their leaves. Looking down at the forest land not far away, it is covered with withered yellow leaves. .

The sky is dim, gray clouds are piled up, and the cold wind is blowing against the branches and leaves.

Such a gloomy environment made Yu Ke feel relaxed.

At least in this tower camp, he didn't have to force himself to face completely unfamiliar people and things.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the bottom of the sentry tower house.

The entire sentry tower is divided into upper and lower parts.

Yu Ke's residence is located on an iron frame nearly six meters above the ground. The extremely solid iron frame has a circular staircase in the center for up and down passage, and there is also a ropeway for emergency use on the outside.

This kind of building is designed to prevent the invasion of wild beasts or vicious beasts, while ensuring the vision of forest rangers.

Jinghu Forest is the largest biological inhabited area outside Suzhou and Hangzhou. A large number of ferocious beasts have been discovered so far. There was even a beast tide a year ago. If forest hunters want to work in such a place, the first thing they have to do is protect themselves. .

The lower part is the base camp of the guard tower.

It covers an area of ​​approximately 380 square meters. The outer perimeter is built with reinforced concrete and a high wire mesh. The interior is planned with a small parking lot, a small power station, a large material storage point, a small workshop for processing prey, a water well and a A small piece of farmland.

Generally speaking, such an outpost is a completely independent small world that can be self-sufficient. This is also an important reason why Yu Ke values ​​the profession of ranger hunter. He wants to use a new living environment to free himself from the problems caused by time travel. Feelings of loss.

Climbing down the stairs of the sentry tower using both hands and feet, Yu Ke roughly inspected the situation in the base camp.

His predecessor left a lot of tools for him before he left, and with a little tidying up, he could restore the operation of each area.

But before that, he had to settle the food for tonight.

He was tired of eating the compressed biscuits and energy bars distributed by the General Administration in his backpack. After finally leaving the city where material control was becoming stricter and the price of meat soared, he arrived in Jinghu Forest. Of course he had to open his stomach and eat meat.

Arriving at the off-road vehicle assigned by the Forestry Protection Bureau, Yu Ke looked at the hunting equipment placed by the co-pilot.

Turn around and look at the sun slanting westward in the sky.

before sunset.

He's about to go on his first hunt!

New year, new atmosphere~
