“Insect and those small bugs becoming Zombies? Well, they won’t become zombies from what I know off.”

“Phew! That has scared me for a bit.”

​​

Wu Changpu, who has quickly contacted his favorite cousin let out a big sigh of relief, which was the same emotion that everyone listening to the phone call has also felt.

“You could say those small creatures would turn into a mutated beast if they managed to survive the increasingly severe and chaotic environment in the entire World! For example, a car sized spider can appear! It might even be a cockroach with the ability to spit green acid too! Absolutely disgusting right? Hahaha!”

Before anyone can feel relief for a bit longer, the words that the crimson haired young man has spoken next cause everyone face to pale. Particularly the woman who couldn’t help but show a twisted expression in their faces with how disgusted they felt when the images flash in their minds.

“Anyway, when it comes to dead animals, the possibility of turning into Zombies is 50% for the normal in size, 20% for animals with the same size as a normal bird, and 10% for small creatures. While the human race has 100% of them turning into a Zombie after death.”

Xiao Wei continues to explain what he knows more regarding the Zombie in the making from the cell phone in his hand, before turning his gaze toward the handsome blue haired young man that was busy storing all the materials left in the flat grassland in his huge dimension space.

“Anyway, for the Four Guardians, check the authority you have received. You can contact me in the transparent panel instead of using your phone. It is easier and more secure that way.”

Suddenly, Xiao Wei has opened a huge transparent screen in the air, which directly showed the Map of the entire Base, only to let out a disappointed sigh when the search of the dead bodies feature is in a blank state, meaning there is no way for him to use it.

… Damn points…

Xiao We couldn’t help but let out a swear after staring at the unbelievable amount of points needed to activate the useful features in the Territory Management System. 

I’m so poor…

He gave one last word toward the people listening on the phone before turning it off with a bad mood considering how much points he will be needing to activate most of the features in the System Management.

“Although, I am kind and caring enough to inform everyone of these important details, which I wouldn’t reveal where I learned all about it. Everyone still needed to retain a bit of doubt from all the information I have given. After all, the world is unpredictable, the information you know can have slight differences.”

The world is real, and is entirely different from the story I know of. Just like the world suddenly having two protagonists. Of course, my existence is extremely special enough to change everything.

Soon, thirty minutes had quickly passed by, and the other people had completely made sure that there were no dead bodies of animals and humans around.

While Black, who had been left behind, has begun to command Fire and White to perform the search outside the Base instead of the other people doing it, which was far safer.

While Shen Hao is busy making sure that everything that needed to be stored has been taken away, leaving the important materials to build the high wall and building all over their designated places, Xiao Wei is sliding all over the place.

It seems that there are new features that have shown up in different locations after Black had activated the Archives and other conditions in the Territory Management System.

Starting from the entrance of the Base, there is already a huge and extremely thick gate placed over it, which seemed to have a mysterious rune applied to it.

In front of the two buildings built up high in the wall in order to observe the situation outside better, there are two Steles with dim crystal jade standing on each side.

And when Xiao Wei checked on the two steles with the transparent panel of the Authority he has as the Lord, it showed what it could do once activated.

A powerful defense would appear when facing powerful individuals or mutated creatures that wanted to forcefully enter the Base in order to create chaos or planning to destroy it.

At least, the normal barrier that is protecting the entire Base had already been activated just like what Black has mentioned after using most of their points, which was connected to the same type of Stele that has shown in every side where the thick and high wall is being built.

And since it is only at normal level, points are once again needed to make the barrier stronger, while the other various features cannot be used until the Stele has level up.

I am so done with always being mentioned about points… 

“Anyway…  we will be needing a Crystal Energies or a powerful Ability user with a certain rank in the Territory Management System to properly use the Stele too…”

Xiao Wei nodded his head after figuring out the use of the Stele built in a specific spot in the entire Base, completely disregarding the points being mentioned.

And after Xiao Wei has traveled again while using his ice ability to make a thin layer of ice underneath his feet, while at the same time, wearing a crystalized ice skate has swiftly slid all over the place.

Although Xiao Wei’s crimson eyes couldn’t help but flickered all over the thick high wall, which is mostly made by his ice ability. Because he noticed how a few distance away from the wall surrounding the entire base, there is a good length of bamboo trees forming as another barrier.

It’s basically another defense and protection if the high wall has the high chance of being broken in the future.

It will completely give everyone enough time to stop whatever is attacking them, at the same time, giving everyone in the base enough chance to save their lives from the dangerous situation.

“Good.”

Xiao Wei couldn’t help but nodded his head, while patting the silent Bao in his arms, as for the other two children, they have chosen to stay with Shen Hao.

Of course, he has been using the communication in the transparent panel with Savy helping out while he was busy investigating and checking the new change inside their Base.

“I also grew some small bamboo forests in certain spots all around the base. When the process of exchanging points for materials, or using points to buy materials is being used. Anyone can similarly get edible fresh bamboo shoots using the same procedure. I will only need a little energy to grow countless of it for the human to consume.”

“My oldest son sure is smart and capable of having such a great idea!”

Xiao Wei crimson eyes basically lit up, after all, with the bamboo shoots being added in the list of food to consume, it will help lessen the process of their food running out if it couldn’t keep up with the research of how to grow edible plants.

After all, no matter how much materials Xiao Wei has bought in the base, sooner or later, they will need to deal with the problem of growing edible plants to eat in the future or actively hunting down mutated beasts.

Soon, he arrived closest to where the traditional third villa is, and behind it was another wall of bamboo trees, which was dense and thicker in appearance since behind it was the most important place in the entire Base.

There is Xiao Wei’s main residence, the countless warehouses filled with materials, the second villa where most of the researchers and inventors will stay and lastly the place where Green Houses will be built.

At the same time, using some of the land to grow edible plants to consume.

Even Xiao Wei already has a list of vegetables to grow, which is mainly potatoes, various types of sweet potatoes, radishes, lettuces, soy beans, all sorts of vegetable seeds and edible plants that he has bought enough to fit half the size of a Warehouse.

After all, he has already considered failing to produce a crop because of the changing environment of the Apocalypse, so there will be wasted seeds in the ongoing research later on.

And the most important focus of Xiao Wei to grow will be the potatoes since it will make people feel full for a longer time, seconds is radishes since they are one of the fastest vegetables that can grow, then all kinds of mushrooms because of the various healthy nutrients they have and lastly soybeans.

After all, soybeans can be made with various types of food or sauce depending on how it is handled.

Particularly the Tofu made with soybeans because tofu can be used as a substitute for meat. It is widely known in ancient times in a certain country, when most people couldn’t afford to buy meat, that they usually eat tofu instead since it has quite a similar nutritional value.

Of course, there is quite a difference too, but it’s a better substitute in the Apocalypse world where one couldn’t easily consume the food they wanted to eat.

“… I should start letting the water ability users produce water with their skills too, huh.”

Xiao Wei has seen the bonus features for their Base being chosen as the main core of shelter in the Territory Management System. So when he sees the huge space just in a different direction from the third traditional villa, he can try making a small and large lake upon it and grow other edible foods.

At least, there is a kind of resistance causing the plants and animals that will grow inside the base from mutating or from getting stronger. If it happens or the situation becomes dangerous, they can instantly finish it off since they will get alerted by it.

So Xiao Wei can grow plants in a relaxed manner, and keep edible mutated beasts around.

For example, he can try the process of producing fishes in the lake made by the water ability users. Or growing lotus plants and other edible water plants, after all, the probability of accomplishing something is higher when some people use their ability.

So for the living mutated fish, Xiao Wei just needs to travel around the base, since in the Map, there is a river and lake around, although it is a bit far, but he is bound to travel later on after examining the Archives in the Territory Management System.

There is bound to be an edible fish that they can try cultivating.

“Ahh… I can’t be a salted fish all the time…”

While letting out a deep sigh, Xiao Wei finally arrived at the bottom of the Mountain where the first old villa was built up.

Behind the Mountain while surrounded by countless bamboo trees, there are two huge caves, red and blue, with mysterious space shining in its entrance, similar to a fantasy dungeon.

“Hey Black, what the hell is this?”

Although the skills of Savy is quite similar to a Game Element, but honestly is this really a dungeon I am seeing?

While Xiao Wei was shaking his head while staring at the dungeon-like appearance that had suddenly appeared in their Base, Black voice finally replied back with an extremely excited voice.

“Oh! You finally found it? One of them is like a dungeon and arena! The effect it has will keep the area around the Base more safe to travel around!”

Before, I doubt if the world has become a BL Novel because of the group of bent guys. But now, the world is turning into RPG elements too?

“Anyone who is brave enough to enter will have to face a random mutated beast or plants inside the space. It will be the mutated creatures in the surrounding of the Base territory!”

“So, this will be the fastest way to deal with them, instead of suddenly meeting those mutated creatures while traveling around outside, saving everyone from being unprepared.”

Oh? That sounds great and useful.

“Is that why it is also an arena type?”

“Yes! The person has to deal with it! If they completed it, the mutated creatures would completely disappear outside, the useful materials would directly go to the Lords account!  While there will be pure energy that will go to the person who had taken down the mutated creatures, which will make them stronger!”

… Hm… I can only start to send reliable and trustful people in this special dungeon, which is absolutely the group of bent men…. Eh… Wait a second…

“A person? You mean, only one person can do it?”

Aren’t I sending those poor guys to their death if I were to do that? They aren’t even skilled yet!

“Well, you don’t have points to make it easier for people to use… so, for now, only one person can enter each time. Besides, no one can enter it since you needed to finish task and use points to activate it.”

“…”

Damn you… the task is alright… so stop mentioning points all the time!
