The smoke in the distance slowly faded.

The city returned to normal.

Cars continued moving.

People laughed.

Shops remained open.

Nobody seemed aware that their world was only three days away from destruction.

Ethan stood silently on the sidewalk.

Above him floated the crimson countdown.

71:02:17

71:02:16

71:02:15

Every second felt heavier than the last.

Three days.

Only three days remained.

DING!

The System suddenly projected a new blue panel.

Main Story Mission

Prepare For The First Apocalypse Wave

Completion Rate: 0%

Reward:

• Guardian Shelter Blueprint

• Storage Ring

Ethan's eyes widened.

"A shelter blueprint?"

Another screen appeared.

Apocalypse Survival Requirements

✔ Secure Shelter

✔ Secure Food

✔ Secure Water

✔ Secure Medical Supplies

✔ Secure Energy Source

✔ Secure Escape Route

Ethan immediately understood.

When the apocalypse started...

His apartment would become a death trap.

The dimensional crack was literally going to appear inside the building.

Remaining there would be suicide.

Just then...

The System displayed a flashing arrow.

Recommended Location Found

Distance: 2.1 km

Ethan quickly hailed a taxi.

"Take me here."

The driver glanced at the map and said,

"That's an abandoned warehouse district."

"Are you going for Business?"

he asked ;

Ethan smiled and said;

"Something like that."

Thirty minutes later...

The taxi stopped.

Ethan stepped out.

A cold wind greeted him.

Rows of abandoned warehouses stretched before him.

Most had been empty for years.

Broken windows.

Rusty gates.

Weeds growing through concrete.

Nobody came here anymore.

The System's arrow pointed toward the largest warehouse.

Ethan pushed open the rusted gate.

CREAAAKK...

Dust filled the air.

The building was enormous.

At least the size of two football fields.

But what surprised Ethan most wasn't the warehouse itself.

It was what lay beneath it.

DING!

Guardian Scan Complete

A holographic map appeared.

Ethan stared in disbelief.

The warehouse sat directly above a massive underground structure.

Old tunnels.

Storage chambers.

Emergency bunkers.

Some sections extended hundreds of feet underground.

"What is this place?"

The System answered.

Cold War Survival Facility

Construction Date: Classified

Current Condition: 32%

Ethan's heart raced.

An underground bunker.

Exactly what he needed.

DING!

Mission Activated

Claim the Warehouse.

Time Limit: 24 Hours.

Reward:

• Guardian Shelter Blueprint

• Construction Mastery

• $10,000

Ethan looked around.

"Claim it?"

Then he noticed something.

The warehouse wasn't empty.

Three men were already inside.

One sat on a crate smoking.

Another was drinking beer.

The third appeared to be their leader.

A large scar stretched across his face.

The scar-faced man narrowed his eyes.

"You're lost, kid."

His voice echoed through the building.

"This place belongs to us."

Ethan frowned.

"Belongs to you?"

The man laughed.

"We use this place for storage."

"Private business."

The other two stood up.

Their expressions weren't friendly.

DING!

The System suddenly spoke.

Warning

These individuals are not the legal owners.

Criminal Records Detected.

The scar-faced man cracked his knuckles.

"You've got ten seconds to leave."

Ethan slowly looked toward the underground entrance behind them.

That bunker...

Was the key to surviving the apocalypse.

And these men were standing directly in his way.

The countdown above Ethan's head continued ticking down.

71:00:01

71:00:00

The System displayed one final message.

Optional Mission

Remove Illegal Occupants.

Reward:

• Beginner Combat Skill Upgrade

• Guardian Reputation +20

The three men began walking toward him.

The leader smiled coldly.

"Looks like we're doing this the hard way."

Ethan slowly clenched his fists.

For the first time since obtaining the System...

He didn't feel fear.

Because he knew something they didn't.

In three days...

The world would end.

And this warehouse would become one of the safest places in the city.

End of Chapter 11

Ethan has found the perfect underground bunker, but three criminals already occupy it. Can a Level 2 Ethan defeat them and claim the shelter before time runs out? And what secrets are hidden in the depths of the abandoned bunker?
