The beginning

Chapter 6

The beginning

Winter saw his level stats now which had a extra option now .

[HOST : PARK WINTER

LEVEL : 4

ABILITY : POTIONS MASTREY

RACE : HUMAN

CREDITS : 230

CLASS : ????]

When he tried to see the CLASS option he only got questions marks so he left it for now but concentrate on the credits he have .

That's good enough to buys some common weapon he thought but he looked at the golden colour LUCKY SPIN option and choose it curiously.

[ LUCKY SPIN

DOES THE HOST WANT TO DRAW THE LUCKY DRAW ? ]

He choose yes without hesitation .

SPIN!

After few seconds the Needle stopped at the purple box which was shinning brightly.

[DING ! HOST HAS WON BASE CAMP ]

Seeing the notification he was confused but then he was shocked when he read the full information of BASE CAMP .

[BASE CAMP (Epic level ) : A SELECTED AREA WILL BE CONVERTED INTO YOUR BASE CAMP WHERE IT DEFENDS AGAINST ENEMY . IT HAS VARIOUS FUNCTIONS WHICH COULD BE UNLOCKED AS THE HOST LEVELS UP . ONCE ACTIVATED IT CANNOT BE MOVED OR CHANGED TO OTHER AREA . THE BASE OVERALL STRENGTH DEPENDS ON THE HOST LEVEL AND THE SKILLS HE UNLOCKS .]

A base camp ? A stronghold?

A epic item?

This was a real deal !

With a tons of foods stored here what he needed most was an safe territory and now he finally got one . Even through the company had some Minor security but it's only suitable for the humans but not zombies so he had this problem for a while but now this problem can be easily solved thanks to the system .

After thinking for a while he saw the below sentence after reading it ,made him speechless .

"This is a daylight robbery"

He couldn't help buy say in annoying because the need of credit has increased more now but he knew that it was worth the short and what know is that he will leave it to future .

[HOST NEEDS 5000 CREDIT TO UNLOCK BASIC SKILL OF THE BASE CAMP ]

[HOST NEEDS 1000 CREDITS FOR HIRING MERCENARIES WHO WILL DEFEND YOUR BASE WITH LIFE . THE MERCENARY LEVEL COULD NOT BE MORE THAN 1 LEVEL OF HOST

MAXIMUM : 5 PEOPLE ]

[ NEEDS RESOURCES TO UNLOCK THE POTENTIAL OF BASE CAMP ]

And soon were some greyed out words with bunch of questions marks. This was too much cost that now he couldn't provide but the abilities are worth it . So he could only grit his teeth and farm CREDITS but before that he need to select the area to be constructed for the base and after that he needs to find resources for his potions then can he go out to farm CREDITS .

He didn't waste any more time but choose his own company (90 × 100) acres as base .

DING [ BASE CAMP IS ABOUT TO BE CONSTRUCTED WITHIN 10 MINUTES ]

[ SOUND BARRIER IS ACTIVATED ]

[ ZOMBIES ARE CLEARING WITHIN THE BASE REGION ]

[DING ! YOU ARE LEVEL 5 ]

[DING! YOU ARE LEVEL 6 ]

[ DING ! HOST HAS GOT 1345 CREDITS BY CLEARING ZOMBIE ]

[ DING ! THE BASE CAMP HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED ]

[ WOULD HOST LIKE TO NAME THE BASE CAMP ?]

After ten minutes the system notification appeared again and now it had tones of notifications appearing at the same time.

Winter took a deep breath when he heard the credits he got and he came back to reality when he heard the last notification . He thought for a while and said

"Stronghold"

[DING! ONCE CHOOSEN THE NAME CANNOT BE CHANGED IT AGAIN!

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO CHOOSE THIS NAME ? ]

Winter said 'Yes'

[DING! NAME CHOOSEN SUCCESSFULLY ]

[ DING! CONGRATULATIONS HOST THE STRONGHOLD HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED ]

Winter was full in doubt because he couldn't see anything when the base was constructed so he was amazed how can one construct these fast but when the restriction and barrier lifted off he saw a unbelievable scene which he didn't see before the apocalypse .....

The Outer building was same as before nothing was changed ...but wait !

Now there were some changes a seven feet wall constructed outside the building with a big iron like door at the center of the wall . The outer region was guarded by the we'll built walls but they don't look so strong only could stop some ordinary zombies . And inner region was quite a good secured with some tight reinforced material to the all weak spots of the building and now he is feeling a connection between the base and himself .

A skill icon appeared in front of him .

[ STRONGHOLD

LEVEL : 6

HEALTH : 100%

DEFENCE : 100%

AREA : 90 × 100

FUNCTION : LOCKED

WEAPON : LOCKED

MERCENARY : LOCKED ]

[ NOTE : GREEN DOTS INDICATE HUMANS

RED DOTS INDICATE ZOMBIES AND BLACK DOTS INDICATE BEASTS AND MUTANT CREATURES . ]

Seeing the three locked skills he couldn't help up get headache . So much space yet only he is living there which made him quite lonely and bored .

He looked at the map of his base where no three colours dots showing in his area so he is safe from any dangers now but he can only see his base not outside the wall . He went over to the top floor and saw the view which made him feel gloomy .

The buildings were all destroyed , black gases were farming over the streets due to the destruction of vehicles and the atmosphere was full of dark and gloomy . He couldn't see any living people over there much less zombies but he could occasionally hear the roars and screams out there which made his happy mood depressed once again . The once famous city now become a dead city where monsters and zombies going on a killing spree

He didn't have time to think any about that now because his next step is to make potions and that by finding resources . If he wants resources he need to go outside of these wall and kill zombies but first he will need a good weapon out there .

As about thinking of credits ..!

He had some now after the reward from the killing zombies and combining the remaining credit he had , he can easily buy a weapon now .
