The next morning, just as the rising sun cast its golden rays across the earth, the iconic golden fence of the Flame Heart base was already bustling with activity.
It was as noisy as a popular tourist spot before the end of the world.
Various modified off-road vehicles, cars, and even motorcycles lined up along the road...
Today is the day for the 'Flame Heart' base to select new members.
Unlike the simple flow that only requires paying a few crystal cores to join, the current 'Flame Heart' is no longer what it used to be.
Ever since the news of the "Twelve Evil Gods of Flame Heart" spread throughout the major bases of Beijing, and the trading market opened, people with special abilities who wanted to join "Flame Heart" have been flocking in like a swarm of fish.
Even before, the 'Star Base' proposed at the 'Flame Heart Market' that all its members should be merged into the 'Flame Heart'.
Faced with such a huge influx of defectors, the base had to set up a selection mechanism...
The selection location is in the forest next to 'Flame Heart'.
Before the selection began, Zhizhi and Gangzi teamed up to clear out all the mutant animals in the forest.
Now this forest has completely become Zhizhi's home turf - the little tree man excitedly controls countless vines to spread quietly among the trees, laying a dragnet.
The forest is Zhizhi’s playground, a world that belongs only to Zhizhi!
The selection rules are simple: participants can choose to challenge individually or form their own teams.
As long as you can retrieve the special flag from the mountain guarded by Zhizhi and Gangzi and successfully descend the mountain, you will be qualified to join "Flame Heart".
Even before the Flame Heart Gold Fence opened, the people in the queue were already buzzing with discussion...
"Oh my god... so many people..." A young psychic who looked to be in his early twenties looked at the winding team in front of him and couldn't help but click his tongue.
His clothes had several noticeable patches, and it was obvious that he had not had an easy life in the apocalypse.
The middle-aged man standing in front of him turned around and smiled knowingly: "Young man, this is the 'Flame Heart'! The place where the 'Twelve Evil Gods' reside!"
He said mysteriously, "Have you heard? Just twelve people massacred the 'Edge' base and escaped unscathed."
On the first day of the Flame Heart Market's opening, right where we were queuing, he wiped out more than two thousand psychics with just a wave of his hand!
If we can join Flame Heart, we will have a great guarantee in the end times..."
These words immediately resonated with the people around them.
A woman carrying a bow and arrow chimed in, "It's more than just safety and security. The base is fully stocked! I heard that as long as you behave yourself and do as you're told... you'll have plenty of food and supplies!"
"Right, right, right," another burly man added excitedly, "I've also heard that the 'Twelve Evil Gods' personally lead the base's psychics out for training, and those who perform well receive various rewards. They even have crystal cores, so your psychics will level up quickly!"
"That seems to be the case. I heard that a few days ago, the 'Twelve Evil Gods' brought dozens of Flame Heart's superpowers to wipe out the predators at the Jingmao Shopping Mall!"
"You heard about it too?" A tall, lanky man slapped his thigh excitedly. "Those damn predators always wait for others to find supplies before they start robbing them. I don't know how many people they've harmed! Now they've finally hit a wall!"
There was a sudden chorus of approval from the crowd...
In the apocalypse, predators are undoubtedly one of the most hated existences.
Just then, a timid voice asked, "Um... Does anyone know the specific schedule for today's selection? I've been waiting in line for so long, I'm really nervous..."
A psychic standing in front turned around and said, "I heard from the people in front that we need to register our personal information first, and then we can enter the mountain.
It seems to be testing individual combat capabilities and teamwork. You can freely form a team or act alone..."
"Is there a limit on the number of people?" someone else asked.
"I haven't heard of it. They just said it's a free team, completely voluntary."
