Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 697: Secrets
Chapter 697: Secrets
“These Warden Units are so incredible, no matter how many times I see them…” Reylin muttered.
The others could only nod as they were also quite impressed by its appearance. Humanoid Machines are simply too good.
They possessed incredible calculation and analysis ability… They do not feel pain, and would not get tired unless their power cores or energy source ran out. They were almost the perfect soldier.
If they were able to build hundreds or thousands of them, they wouldn’t have a lot of casualties in Zombie Waves.
They might lose out on Experience Points, but if their safety was already guaranteed, many Survivors would want to live like that.
Just like that, the group watched the Warden Units line up along a raised platform, their metal bodies working whatever task they were assigned.
Then, moving along, they saw variants of such Warden Units.
These units were bulkier… They had added reinforced plating, shoulder-mounted cannons, and more reactor cores embedded into their spines.
Then, they saw a few technicians outside the factories looking at various Warden Units…
They seemed to be going to the testing area for the calibrations of their weapon systems while running diagnostics.
“Are we really allowed to view this area?” Duran whispered.
Edwin nodded once. “You don’t have to worry about it. You will become part of our community, and you’ll learn more about this project. As a matter of fact, if you know people who can help in this division, it is much better… Even if they don’t have the exact skills we needed, as long as they have related talents, they can be taught.”
“Now that you’ve said that… I think I can recommend a few mechanics to this Division. I’m sure they’ll be happy to be part of it.” Reylin muttered.
She knew that some of her soldiers in the shelter were actually talented mechanics. They simply had no other choice but to pick up their weapons and use their guns to join the fight against the Zombies.
However, Shane’s shelter was different.
They weren’t desperate to enlist non-combative Survivors!
Perhaps, this was the moment they had been waiting for.
“I’m sure they’ll be happy if they can also show their talents. After all, everyone here isn’t working for free… Anyway who contribute to the shelter will be rewarded. Of course, I’m the one handling such matters.” Butler Edwin said as she looked at Reylin’s group.
“That’s impressive. I guess my residents who have skills in the kitchen, gardening, and sculpting can also have a job here.” Reyline said.
“Of course… However, I heard that Shane planned to send people to your shelter, depending on what your place needs, while you can also send your people who have production skills on our side if they want to work here.” Edwin paused and looked at Reylin before he continued.
“Initially, I thought that Shane wanted to just bring all of you to one of our shelters. It will increase the strength of the shelter, but after some considerations, he must’ve realized that it would be better to have more shelters in other regions to increase his influence and also resources.”
Reyline nodded at this as she also knew that her Shelter Two wasn’t just a strategic stronghold in the area, but it also controls a huge part of the forest, a gold mine, and maybe even more.
However, they simply did not have to resources to extract their resources.
Finding herbs, woods, and other ingredients in the forest was quite easy, but mining was not simple.
Aside from getting fighters to fend off the Zombies that could lurk around the mines, they also do not have spare people to work in the mines. After all, it would split their people and might weaken their main shelter in the process.
“Look here…” Edwin suddenly said as he gestured to another area…
Not far from their position, they saw a training court wider than a schoolyard, where ten Super Soldiers sparred against regular soldiers…
They could tell that much because the size of the Super Soldiers was just too different from average humans.
Looking at the Super Soldiers, they couldn’t help but stare at them for a moment as the group analyzed their movements.
They were swift and explosive, their punches and kicks leaving shockwaves in the air.
However, their opponents weren’t easily defeated either.
“Aura?” Reylin muttered as she recognized the power they were using. freewebnσvel.cøm
“I thought only Monks could use this power…” Maz muttered. Their now-gone Shelter One actually had a Monk Squad. They recruited a total of 15 Monks from Rare Recruitment Stones, and they all had Aura Abilities.
They tried teaching others how to use it, but it wasn’t easy.
In the end, they all died protecting Shelter One up until the end.
“These guys…” Duran muttered. “They could take on a small horde on their own…”
And just beside them, they noticed five more Elves with silver-trimmed cloaks and crossbows as their weapons.
They were also training in silence…
They watched as arrows flew through the air, striking some moving targets at the end of the training yard.
No wasted movement. No misfire. Just perfect accuracy…
Maz stared. “They’re too perfect…”
“The weapons are great… But those elves must have Accuracy-Related Skills.”
“Racial Trait?” Torren muttered.
“It could be…”
For a long moment, no one said anything more as they simply watched the others on their training.
Eventually, Edwin brought them near a serene courtyard surrounded by unknown but impressive trees…
“What the heck? What kind of tree gives such powerful energy?” Duran suddenly commented.
“Elves are here… Maybe they were the ones who planted and grew them?” Maria added.
Apparently, she wasn’t completely wrong.
Shane had already brought some soil and even trees from the Fairy Realm. Of course, Shane already obtained the World Tree’s seed, and it was still not sprouting…
However, there were plenty of other trees in the Fairy Realm, and Shane simply experimented.
He wanted to know if the trees or plants he brought from the pocket dimension could actually grow here.
In the end, he only succeeded after planting the World Tree’s seed nearby!
