Chapter 8 - New Home (P-2)

A week later the base on the top of the rocky mounting has finished its foundations and is ready to build its structure beginning with the 4 towers on the four corners. The task has been split between the team, First off Bell is on the watch for any attack while the base is being built. Henry hunts food for both Jackson and Cuprite. While Bunker still cutting down trees or stones required for the base building.

Of course Tool Maker assembles the base together. A week ago Jackson had nothing to do but because of Cuprite finding an iron ore deposit underground inside her nest. Jackson asked Tool Maker to build him some basic tools and started working on some weapons for Henry to hunt with. At first Jackson made a basic bow but it proved useless against some beast outside.

Henry was better off using his body to fight them. 4 days ago Henry ran into a 4 meter tall monster that look like tiger with wings. Bunker and Henry worked together and killed the beast without much damage to its pelt, Tool Maker wanted to make a bed out of it.

Jackson used its other parts to create another bow made with its body parts. Working on his project Jackson discovered that the bones of a tiger was almost like metal, So he did some experiments on it and it turns out you can melt it like metals and can be turned into swords.

With this discovery, Jackson armed Henry with war glaive made from another type of wood they found while Bunker deforested the area. It was flexible and durable so Jackson turned it into a war glaive rather than a spear.

With Henry's strength and battle experience with any weapon type. Henry used the warglaive to butcher the wild beast close by. Bones turn into materials and beast flesh used to feed Jackson and Cuprite.

Cuprite now commands 200 small worker ants. The more she eats the better for her. Jackson was happy about Cuprite's worker ants as it was an extra labor worker. Around the base you can see Ants carrying stones and trees around with Tool Maker instructions.

The worker ants are divided into 3 divisions. First, 100 ants attended to Cuprite's needs and her nest. The other 100 were split into 2 and working with Tool Maker carrying material around. Do not look down on ants as these ants can carry 10 times their size, don't forget that these ants are almost the same size as a medium dog back on earth.

With everyone working on their respected jobs, the base slowly formed.

---------------------------------------

Somewhere far from a rocky mountain.

An armed group gathered, and surrounded a party of 7 people who looked injured and tired.

One of the injured women stepped out in anger, "Shen! You traitor!"

"Don't bother talking to her, it's pointless." Another woman spoke, gently pulling her back in.

"Lili, Lulu, the silver family is over, you know that right? it's better to move on and live than be chased down like a dog and die!" The female traitor answered back to Lili and Lulu's anger.

"Haha.. What she said is true you know" the man next to the traitor joined in the conversation.

"No… The Silver Family will live on! Even if we are to die here, we will take you down with us" Another injured female behind Lili and Lulu yells at the man.

"I agree with what Ann said," she collected herself and kept going with determination, "I, Anya Silver, will drag you down to hell with me!" her tone, cold, conveying her hatred to the others in agreement.

"Guys! Oh no, Father is in danger, we need to use that scroll now" Another woman holding a dying man in her arms yelled in worry towards the other 5. "Faith don't stop healing father with me"

"Don't worry, Hope. Even if I die from spirit exhaustion I will heal father" Faith answers her sister back in determination.

"Haha. Look at all you struggle, Know that this is useless." The man laughs at the sisters' attempts to save their father from certain death. "Without a level 7 healing pill your old man is going to die. Now stop this pointless struggles and hand over the Silver family treasured rings"

Hearing the man, the 6 girls couldn't help but clench their teeth in anger and frustration. No one knows who spread rumors that their family has godlike treasure inside their father's ring.

The Silver Family was destroyed with just one false rumor spread by someone.

"Uhhgr" their father moved hearing the man yell. Opening his eyes he looked at Faith. "Faith, gather everyone and use the life saving scroll is the only way."

Hearing her father's words, Faith complained back to him. "But father! this is a random teleportation scroll we might stumble upon a high level beast." But she knew that they had no choice in this matter. Faith looking at his father with serious looks, she turned and yelled at her sister.

"Lili, Lulu, Ann, Anya, Hope! Gather here now!" Faith ordering her sister together so that she can use the scroll.

"No! Stop her!" The man yelled and led his subordinate to stop Faith from using the random teleportation scroll.

Faith and her sisters gathered together and she pulled out a small scroll from her chest and ripped it apart. While doing all of this Faith's eyes never left the man and that traitorous woman, then they vanished.

"No! dammit! The elders are going to punish me for this! all of you are useless! USELESS!" The man yelled at his men and cursed at them after a while he calmed down and ordered them to move back.

Back to rocky mountain

Jackson was in his work station playing around with some animal bones. He wanted to create a gun out of them but he needed some materials for gunpowder to use the gun. Still Jackson wanted to prepare the gun if has gotten some materials for gunpowder.

Pulling out some paper Jackson began to draw out plans for his new weapon. Back on earth guns are made to withstand a certain amount of gunpowder that way they will never break during combat But in this world the bones of any animal are far superior both in durability and weight. The animal bones are light but very tough.

Jackson took out the last piece of tiger bones and took some calculation before drawing something down again. He planned to make a shotgun barrel out of this bone. The tiger bone was harder than the other animals he currently has.

After a while Jackson continued with his project but was suddenly interrupted by Bell. "Master! We found people"

Hearing Her Jackson question himself. "Is it human? Are natives here human too?" Look at Bell Jackson replied. "Where? How many? Friend or foe?"

"I don't think they are in a state to be our enemy. There are 7 of them, 1 man who is heavily injured and would die without treatment. The other 6 are women around the age of 18 or 20" Bell said.

"Bring me to them" Jackson requested Bell to lead him to them.

Meanwhile the Silver Family almost died in shock while they faced Bunker with his massive size. The girls collapsed and fell to the ground and began to hug each other.

"Sis, It over we ran into an unknown metal giant" Hope said.

"If we die we should die together and be Sisters again is the next life" Faith hugs her sister.

The other four were doing the same thing and prayed for better life next time they are born But Bunker just stood there looking at the drama right in front of him. Bunker sensed no hostility from them therefore did not attack but was on guard.

While the 6 girls were trembling in fear and in tears. They suddenly heard a man's voice. "Uhh... We come in peace?"
