8 The four Systems
The System continued: [The Water System can decide if it wants to build underwater, modify a boat or both. Every option has their advantages and disadvantages. The boat option consumes fuel, have a limited space, must have maintenance, easy to see and can be attacked by the many sea monsters and pirates. Meanwhile, just building under water would require strong materials, it would be harder to get supplies, you might be attacked by sea monsters, there will be a limited space, and if something gets broken, it would be hard to fix.] Josh asked the System: "Can't you Systems fix the problems?" The System answered: [No, we can only do a few things, and minor parts maintenance is not one of the things we can do. I can fix a hole in the wall or floor, but I can`t fix a turret etc. But Josh, please don't interrupt me when I explain about the other systems.
The System continued: The Fire System is an aggressive system. It can make bases, but they are mostly temporary, and they are not so good. But when it comes to fighting, no one can best it. The user of the Fire System will be able to use skills from games, movies and real life as longs as it is melee and realistic. For example, it can't shoot out an energy beam from a hammer, and the user would eventually be tired. But that is about it when it comes to the Fire System. Now you can ask questions] Josh asked with a curios voice: So, what does the Fire System host do, since he has no base, and can the host of the Fire System use guns? The System: [The host of the Fire System usually drift around, and yes, he can use guns, just that the Fire System is more proficient in close quarter combat.] The bus arrived at the bus stop closest to the factory, and Josh got of it and started to walk towards the factory.
The System continued: [Now to the Air System. The Air System is similar to the Water System, just that it moves in the air. It can modify any airborne vehicle or lift a small piece of land in the air similar to the old show called "Howls Flying Castle". The advantages with this System are that is highly mobile, few monsters and people can attack it and it has quite the view. The disadvantages are that is quite hard for it to get supplies and materials, few people can be with its host and depending on the option the host chose, it needs fuel and maintenance as well. You can now ask questions.] Josh asked: "How much land can be lifted up?" The System: [Around three acres of land.]
Josh arrived at the factory and saw a lot of bags with cement and huge piles of metal. The System absorbed it and cleansed it for impurities. Then the System continued: [And finally, it is me, the Earth System, though I would prefer if you just call me as usual. I am not mobile, and I can`t help you with fighting, but I am the best when it comes to defence and life sustenance. I can make impenetrable fortresses and modify many ground vehicles. I can also temper a bit with space and time, though does are not what I am made to do. Any questions?] Josh asked it: "Does that mean you can`t help me in towns?" The System: [Well, I can tell you about different things about the apocalypse but is you who have to do the heavy lifting.]
