Chapter 31: The Upcoming Mech Siege
The glow of the System interface appeared before Max and the other survivors.[ Global Event is Here! ][ Upcoming Hostile Operation: Mech Siege ][ Countdown: 48 Hours Remaining ][ Objective: Defend designated shelter against mechanical assault for 72 hours. ][ Failure Condition: Shelter destroyed. All survivors eliminated. ][ Rewards: Experience Points, Loot Drops, Survivor’s Medal, Potential Title Upgrade, and others ]’Right... thanks for reminding me,’ Max mused as he studied the message.He was about to dismiss the window when another notification immediately followed.[ Additional Notice: Enemy forces calibrated to shelter population and average level. ][ Estimated Enemy Composition: Sentinel Units, Swarmer Drones, and Beastframe‑class Units. ]After getting all this information, Max wasted no time.He gathered everyone in the central hall to discuss the matter. Survivors stopped what they were doing. Some were still clutching camouflage suits, others holding bowls of no
Chapter 30: The Warning
Aya had actually shielded Max with her body. Her Physical Strength Talent allowed her to absorb the brunt of the shock, and she seemed perfectly fine.In the meantime, Xander coughed violently as he inhaled dust and smoke."Damn it! The old man wanted revenge in the end." Ryan cursed, dragging Jett toward the corridor.For several minutes, the corridor was filled with coughing, groans, and the sound of debris settling.Dust hung thick in the air, choking their lungs and stinging their eyes.Max forced himself upright, his ears still ringing.His body ached from the blast, but his Level 5 stats gave him resilience.The pain dulled quickly as his muscles stabilized faster than any ordinary survivor could manage. He then noticed that Aya was already on her feet, brushing dust from her arms, her Talent certainly made her recovery just as swift.Xander , Ryan , and Jett also seemed shaken but alive. Their quick retreat saved them from the worst of the blast.’Good...’Max heaved a s
Chapter 29: Explosion!
For a moment, it seemed as if the frail old man was about to unleash something devastating. The glow in his eyes seemed sinister, as if a laser was about to hit them...But then... nothing happened as the glow in his eyes disappeared.The Elder remained motionless, his body was still bound by tubes and wires, and his eyes were the only part of him showing signs of power.The group froze, caught between fear and confusion, as they had no idea what had happened just now.Then, they heard the Elder’s raspy voice, startling them all."...You are not ordinary. You’re not from here, are you?"Max stiffened with his revolver still half‑raised while Aya squinted her eyes as she guessed the Elder’s Gene Skill just now.However, Jett, who was just at the door, spoke."What the hell does he mean? What do you know?"Ryan and Jett exchanged uneasy glances but just remained silent.’The old man guessed it right...’The Elder’s eyes lingered on them before he spoke again. "Humans... yes. But your
Chapter 28: Ambush or Not
"He wants to see us?" Aya frowned."Is it for revenge?" Jett asked.Max was curious too. Corin had already told them about the Elder, but they had never seen him. Since arriving at Haven‑45, the old man had remained hidden in the lowest chamber, sustained only by dextrose drips, medical devices, and the constant care of attendants."Hmm... We killed his three sons, Keagan, Julian, and Damon... so it’s not surprising that he wants to meet us," Xander muttered.Now that he was Level 4, he felt a lot more confident. He didn’t really mind going together to meet the mysterious Elder."Well, maybe he didn’t know his sons had hoarded the golden liquid, feeding only themselves and their chosen allies. Their arrogance left the shelter weak... They were even brave enough to order that guard to harm us. It’s messed up." Aya muttered.Max shook his head and turned directly to Dustin."Is he mad? Do you know why he’s calling for us?"Dustin paused for a moment, recalling the Elder’s reaction
Chapter 27: Resources
Crack!As the pillars cracked with a snap, the ceiling of the tunnel collapsed, blocking the attack of the Sentinel.Boom!The collapse triggered another explosion that made the northern tunnel cave in even faster. The impact then sent shockwaves through the shelter, shaking the walls and scattering dust everywhere.Smoke and debris poured into the central chamber, choking the air and forcing everyone to cover their mouths.Several lamps started failing, and the ground trembled as if the entire underground structure might give way.’This is dangerous...’ Max thought as he hoped that this shelter could take this much disturbance.For a moment, panic rippled through the survivors.Workers scrambled to steady supplies, some others even started praying to their gods, and the fighters braced themselves for another assault.But then... silence.Everyone covered their mouths as they waited to see whether there would be some movement from the rubble.Then, a few minutes passed, and the rubbl
Chapter 26: The First Battle
Max was definitely happy to be the first Level 5 Survivor. It was a great achievement, and he really wanted to brag about it.But he was also curious about the other types of Gene Enhancement Serums out there.Considering he had to wait so long to level up using the Alpha version of the Serum, he believed there might actually be a Beta version that could grant better Experience Points or even greater Stat Increases.Rumble!However, the sudden earthquake disrupted his thoughts. He couldn’t even share the good news with everyone.Suddenly, Corin burst into the chamber. He paused to catch his breath, his eyes darting across the room.Max and the others could tell immediately that this was not going to be good news."They’ve found us!" he shouted. "Two Sentinels and two Hounds... they destroyed the tunnel entrance with that advanced rifle. Our scout... he didn’t make it back. Either captured or forced to lead them here."The room fell silent for a moment. This was a very important mat
