Still digesting all the information dumped on him, Ren decided to close the system box.According to the system he will be able to make the blue box appear or disappear, saving him from inconvinience. Try to imagine if he was talking to someone or doing something his attention will be divided by the transparent blue box in front of him.
......
The next day, sitting in his study table. He was considering the location for his base. It was really important as it will be the gathering point for all important matters. The supply that he will gather will also be stored here, this is also the place where he will train his own men.
At first he almost did a mistake. He think of all place in the future that will be safetest where no formidable or large amount of mutated beast are situated. But then he realize the best base is not safest base but a base with rich resources. Carefully recollecting his knowledge and information from his first life, he decided to use the private beach his family owned. Its the Star willow beach, it was named after the 224 years old starfall willow tree.
Actually it was just a regular willow tree but according to the legend, 224 years ago a star has fallen in the place where the willow tree is located. But when people see that place, apart from the hot crater it produce, the so called star are nowhere to be found. Not even a single piece of it are seen. But then few days later when some people decided to investigate, they found a young bud of plant, time pa.s.s by they finally learn that it was a ordinary willow tree without any shows of being special. Willow tree could have an average lifespan of 50 years, while willow that could leave through century is unheard of. So aside from living through 2 centuries, though scientist are puzzled they did not found anything unordinary from the tree. Because of people who loves to create exaggerated story they decided to call it as Starfall willow tree they also sometimes called it as Immortal willow tree.
Which later in the apocalypse era will be known as Golden star willow tree. Its leaves will turn into golden and experience a rapid growth. Making its size almost 20 times bigger than before. At some distance away it look like a giant golden tower. Unlike other plants which became violent or became poisonous. The golden star willow tree will became medecinal, the juices from its leaves coukd cure internal or external wound and it could also cure poisons. The most beneficial thing is that it will began to bear fruits and its main and most importnat function is to promote evolution. Another benefit of this mutated tree is its bark, using it as a tea will have calming effect.
Due to mutation and evolution of both human and animals it result to side effect of becaming more violent. It was dangerous because it could make someone minds crazy. Grinding it to a powder, it can also be used to tame mutated beast.
Small golden willow trees an inferior version of it will also start to grow around. Though it cannot bear fruits and the juices of its leaves effect is lesser than the original, it was still quite valuable.
Another thing the beach was famous for is because of groups of blue whale who frequently visited every month. There are estimatedly 74 blue whales in their pod. Actually the department of tourism want this beach to be open to public before but the Garcia family doesnt like the idea of someone l.u.s.ting over their possesions. Whats more the current family head back then was saved by the blue whales when he was just a kid, that why he developed some feelings for the whales. With the reason in his mind that the crowd of people who will visit may make the whales uncomportable and result in them not visiting anymore. He decline the idea of department of tourism.
With the protection of Garcia family, the beach became a safe haven for the blue whales. The only problem is that, Ren was unsure if the blue whales after mutation could still recognize the people who once protected them.
Though blue whales is one of the smartest mammals but it doesnt mean they could understand the things Garcia family did for them.
He then search a map for it through his phone. Looking at the map he carefully review the topography of the beach and its surrounding. Ren found that mountains in south side is just few kilometers away. Aside from sea and ocean, forest and mountain is also one the most dangerous place in the world in the apocalypse era.
Carefully searching in his memory if there is some kind of information or even rumors about those mountains. Unfortunately he did not remember any kind of news about that place. He then decided to leave that matter for now.
To the east side is the ocean, there is some unhabitated islands nearby to the beach. While the few kilometers in the north and west side have no special place aside from few city and some small village.
After careful consideration Ren decided to take the risk. Biting the bullet, Ren is actually nervous. After the mutation of flora and fauna, blue whales become one of the top mutated beast. With their size and intelligence, they become a overlords of ocean. Adding to the unknown danger of the mountain in the south side, risk and oppurtunity truly intermigled.
Using so much of his brain, his head started to hurt. Going into his soft and comportable bed, when he was about to close his eyes. His phone started to ring, sighing he pick the phone to see who is calling. Its Gabriel, his bestfriend. He was currently in Foreign country because of business affair.
"h.e.l.lo dude, i was going to call you yesterday but i forgot, dont worry ill be going there in few hours, im on my way now in airport"
Hearing his voice, he was really happy. He was one of his true friend, maybe because they have almost same status they did not calculated to each other. They are able to get along since they were kids. Actually he have another 2 bestfriends together they formed a 4 man group called Prince X.
"So you are going back here, then did you already inform Carlos and Mark?"they are the other two member of Prince X.
"Not yet, but after this call. So im going to hang up lets just chat when i arrived"
"Okey then, my battery is actually almost dead so bye bye"
Ending the call, he started to smile but it quickly froze as he remeber something important.
Quickly checking the current date. He then started to call Gabriel but his cellphone shut down because all energy in battery has been used up.
