Apocalypse: The Stronghold System

Chapter 012: The Identity of Yun Mingyue

[Blue Printing Headquarters Level 02] [Supervisory Tower ×2, Main Hall Expansion, Home ×3, Supervisory Room]

[Price: 200©]

"Buy!"

[System Instructions: Spend 200© to buy Blueprint Headquarters Level 02]]

Fan Chen wanted to continue upgrading the Refuge until it felt completely safe, and after that he would build a sturdy wall that was beside the paved road. Thus, the space where their headquarters would be vast, outside of the Core Region, he could build an assortment of life-supporting infrastructure.

Fan Chen did the same as before, but since there was already the foundation of the Level 01 Headquarters Blueprint, he no longer needed to put it down carefully. He only touched the Level 02 Headquarters Blueprint that only he could see, and focused his mind.

[System Reminder: Does the Host want to use the Level 02 Headquarters Blueprint and spend 10,000 Wood, 10,000 Stone and 2,500 Iron]

[System Instructions: Successfully use Level 02 Headquarters Blueprint, 10,000 Wood, 10,000 Stone and 2,500 Iron]

The stone walls that surround all wooden buildings, experience an increase in height and thickness. The Main Hall rises to two floors; the Watchtower increases to the right of the gate when viewed from the outside and the other is in the corner; the Tracker Tower increases in height, and the, it may range between 20 — 30 meters, and at the top of the tower there is an iron ball with the size of twice the basketball; the Main Hall, the, experienced an increase in terms of area and the addition of a floor that is a Supervisory Room.

The Supervisory Room was like a control room in general in the military, it could be used as a command room and of course with the Tracker Tower, it could see anything within a certain radius depending on its level.

The upgrade was not finished yet, Fan Chen reopened the Stronghold System to purchase the Level 03 Headquarters Blueprint. But when looking at the price to pay, he undoes his intentions. The price is 500©, even though he still has 840©, he does not want to buy it, this Coin© in case there is an urgent situation.

But even though he did not purchase the Level 03 Headquarters Blueprint, it did not mean that he did not buy another one. Since the Refuge was already Level 02, then the Blueprint of the Headquarters earlier could be broken down, so he bought the Level 01 and Level 02 Wall Blueprints. He could not directly purchase a Level 02 Wall Blueprint without purchasing a Level 01 one, because it was like there was no foundation.

Fan Chen spent 287© to buy Wall Blueprints Level 01 and 02. For Level 01, spend 5© for 100 meters, and Level 02 is 10©.

"This ..." Yun Mingyue took a step back when he saw the changes to the wall. Initially only the outside, now the inside is also coated with stone. "It's a pity that the tanks I used to drive in the military are not to be brought home."

Fan Chen who was stepping beside Yun Mingyue, suddenly stopped upon hearing that. "Mom, can you not say that? If there really was a tank, would Mom really ruin her own son's work?"

Yun Mingyue turned her head, approaching Fan Chen. "What else can Chen'er do? The Awakened ability that Chen'er had obtained seemed to be limitless." He pointed at the Tracking Tower. "There's iron there, if it's just stone and wood, you'll keep quiet because those two resources are many. But for iron, it doesn't make sense, and it looks like the tower's some kind of radar."

Yun Mingyue looked back at Fan Chen. "Talking about radar, the items Chen'er had were on a different level. The satellite doesn't work, but Chen'er has this kind of technology."

Yun Mingyue stared intently at Fan Chen's eyes, and the bodies of the two were very close.

Fan Chen took a step back, turning his face away, avoiding Yun Mingyue's gaze.

Yun Mingyue sighed and retreated. He stood up, staring at Fan Chen with both hands at his waist. "Well, I won't ask you again. Everyone has secrets, just like Mom, you have secrets."

Fan Chen sighed. He smiled faintly, bowed his body and said, "Thank you. If there's a chance, I'll tell you." Sure, he won't tell about “Fan Chen”'s death.

Yun Mingyue gave a small nod as she rubbed Fan Chen's head. "By the way, Chen'er walked towards the gate. Do you want to get out?"

Fan Chen pointed at the gate which was still made of tree trunks and at the bottom was a wheel made of wood. "I want to go out to build a wall. This place must be protected from all directions, and it can't be just this wide, all this forest must be protected."

"Mother will accompany—"

Fan Chen raised his hand, stopping his mother. "Sorry, but I want you to stay here to look after the others. For myself, I can take care of myself, and the quality of my body is different from that of an ordinary human."

"Ordinary humans?" Yun Mingyue frowned. He stepped swiftly in front of Fan Chen.

Suddenly Fan Chen's gaze spun very quickly, and after recovering, his gaze changed. He looked at the blue sky with white clouds with wide eyes.

Fan Chen was speechless. Then he used the Assessment to look at Yun Mingyue's stats. He had once used Judgment for humans, it was while searching for people from the Fan Family, but had never used it for his own family.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

Fan Chen gulped when he saw Yun Mingyue's information. He did not expect his mother to be Lieutenant General. This surprised her greatly, moreover she had never seen the news that there was a female Lieutenant General in China. Nah! He had heard of it, but it was about 1,500 years ago where it still used conventional means while at war.

But back again, this is Earth-2.

As for Team Alpha, he had seen it on the news. The Alpha team has only 12 members, often plunging into battle and there is no record of defeat though. All members remain intact, but there is one member that is not seen in the news, namely the Vice Chairman.

Then there were still many identities of Yun Mingyue, but it was not too surprising like the initial identities other than the Former Chairman of Fanyue Corp. Then, for the statistics shown, it was too high for the Awakened humans.

Statistics are not a standard. My stamina is higher than Mom's, but the Fatigue I have is higher. It seems, I don't need to rely too much on statistics, I have to practice. Fan Chen.

Fan Chen sighed. He pressed his hands on the ground, propped himself up to sit down, then stood up while patting the dirt that was soiling his clothes.

"Alright, let's all go ahead." Fan Chen directed his hand towards the empty ground, and suddenly a Paramount Marauder appeared from the empty air. "I'll build a wall there, after that, let's go around looking for a spring. If there's no water, all this will be for naught."

Yun Mingyue nodded with a triumphant smile. He walked towards the car, sitting in the steering wheel.

The others walked as usual without a word, but not with Fan Chen who stepped in slowly.

"Mother became Lieutenant General. Even if he goes into the military after high school, then goes out before marriage and counts for my current age. Doesn't it take you six to seven years? Is it because of the Supreme Commander?"

Fan Chen continued to think about it, until the cry of Fan Xiaoyu who asked him rushed over.

Fan Chen looked up, ran towards the car and sat down beside his mother.

Then the car moved, walking out through the gate. Pass through uneven ground, passing tight trees and tall bushes to get to the starting point.
