Chapter 31: Chapter 31 - Suck the future me
Thinking a little, Brandon decided to add 1 point to his agility stat, increasing it to 8, and the last point he spent on improving his Toughness ability to level 2, increasing his resistance by another 10.
Having figured out his skills, Brandon headed back to the vault, found himself a cozy and quiet place, and then just fell asleep.
The next day, Brandon decided to give his men some time to rest, while he and Arthur left the vault.
On the way, Brandon began to speak.
-Arthur, a small reinforcement will arrive soon and we will begin to slowly rebuild the city, but then a problem arises, we are only about 70 people, including the White Stone City, while only about 50 people are adults. We just don't have enough hands to build the city and defend it and our original base. So I got an idea.
When Brandon finished speaking, they were already at the southern border of the city, where they could see several unfinished houses, as well as many abandoned construction vehicles and gadgets.
Brandon continued to speak.
-As you can see there are a lot of equipment here, I think to restore some of them for faster construction, first of all we will start building a wall to protect us from dangers, after that we will start landscaping. But we need to be on the alert, most likely the Gunners will send a punitive expedition after they find out that we have destroyed their group, but I don't think it will be so soon, but sometimes unexpected cases happen.
Arthur nodded and agreed, he was familiar with the term punitive expedition, the Legion often arranged such, punishing any settlements that were somehow guilty, so he took it seriously.
Brandon continued.
- You are probably wondering why I am telling you this? I decided to make you my right hand in this settlement, but do not flatter yourself, this is only a trial period, then we will decide to leave you or withdraw. Here's your first job as mayor. Take 10 more people from the detachment and start transporting equipment to the school, while I, together with my part of the people, will go on cleaning the city.
After about 3 hours, reinforcements arrived, Arthur started organizing and giving orders, meanwhile Brandon and co went to Med-Tek Research, this research center, as well as in Vault, human research was carried out to obtain the best gene material. When the war broke out, test subjects and scientists were still locked in the complexes, so the place is now infested with ghouls.
Small scavengers were driven away by a crowd of ghouls, and large groups were not interested in this place at all and did not want to waste their precious bullets on ghouls.
When the squad reached the parking lot of this complex, a crowd of ghouls were already waiting for them, which immediately attacked them, but for a group of armed people, wild ghouls do not pose a big threat, so moments later, these ghouls turned into an experience for Brandon.
Going inside, the squad saw a destroyed reception room with garbage here and there. In the corridors, you can sometimes hear someone squeezing footsteps and chomping sounds.
The people in his squad felt a little uncomfortable, not everyone wants to be in a horror movie, but fortunately they have a weapon and a strong shoulder of their partners with them, so having gathered their thoughts, they began to move forward very slowly and kill everything that they came across paths.
Another 4 hours passed.
Why did Brandon and the squad take so long to kill the ghouls? This is because they had to check literally every corner, any corpse could suddenly be alive and attack from the back, which is why this operation took so long, but this has its advantages, after the last ghoul killed, Brandon got another level.
[Congratulations on your promotion to level 10]
Without hesitation, Brandon raised his agility to 9.
It's good that there are still ghouls in the underground complex, so Brandon can get one more level and raise his agility to the maximum.
When the party rested, they went to the terminal, which opened the doors to access the underground section of the complex.
Digging into the terminal, Brandon entered the password that the squad found in the complex manager's room, after gaining access, he quickly read the reports, and then unlocked the door, after which he said.
- Well, gentlemen, we are waiting for a couple more hours of close acquaintances with ghouls, I hope you can find yourself a prettier girlfriend.
The squad with smirks on their faces headed to the underground complex.
A very large and long room was waiting for them below, on the sides of which there were many cells in which ghouls were still sitting.
Noticing living people, they, mad with hunger, began to growl and beat against doors and windows, trying to break them, but this equipment was made very strong.
Going to the security terminal, he gave the order.
-There in the security terminal it is possible to open all the doors at once, and there are also turrets that I can configure so that they shoot at ghouls, so my plan is this: we set up a barrage of fire at this place, shooting each ghoul, I will launch the turrets so that they helped us.
Hacking the terminal, Brandon after 10 minutes set up the turrets so that they only fired at the ghouls, but did not touch his people, when he pressed the confirmation key, holes opened on the ceilings of the complex, and the turrets descended from there.
- Get ready guys, I'm opening the doors.
As soon as the doors were opened, the ghouls immediately jumped out from there and began to run at living people, waiting for their food.
The detachment did not hesitate, and all 7 people began to shoot non-stop at defenseless targets, the turrets at this time also did not lag behind and burned the bodies of the ghouls with their laser shots.
After 5 minutes, a small mountain of ghoul corpses formed in the main room.
Unfortunately, not all the creatures were killed, most likely they hid a little in anticipation of a more convenient opportunity, so the detachment was again forced to start a slow advance tactic.
The tense situation for several hours will make even the most enduring get tired, the same fate befell Brandon's squad, but still they managed to track down and kill the last dangers in the complex.
Leaving all the problems with the corpses for his future self, he just took a syringe with unknown contents and went to the exit to rest.
Suck the future me.
[Congratulations on your promotion to level 12]
When the squad returned to the Vault, Brandon received a notification about a new level, without hesitation, he quickly added a point to agility, thereby increasing it to the maximum
