October 14, Monday, 8:30 am in the morning.Leo was inside the Elevator heading down for the Underground Parking Lot. He"s currently looking at the thing on his hand that made him really excited. It was the remote for his car.
"Ahh.. even though I already know what kind of car it is. I still can"t help but feel excited at thought of owning a car" Leo said to himself with a silly smile plastered to his face as he never really owned a car from his past life.
Ding ~
Leo got out of the elevator as he stared wide eyed at luxury cars parked in front of him.
"Holy moly! Isn"t that a Maserati GT and that"s a Audi R8 and there"s even a Boxster and Cayman. Dang, the people who lives are really rich. Wait, i also live here does that mean I"m also rich?" Leo was muttering to himself as he looks at those supercars as he walk towards his own car.
"Ohh, It"s really a 2018 Red Cherokee. It"s really looks better seeing it personally than in the pictures" Leo said while using his hand as he move it along the smooth surface of the car as he went inside and started the car.
"What a cool car. It even smells good inside. Hahaha! I have a car and i could use this to pick up girls. Sadly, there are more important things to do than picking up girls right now" Leo muttered as he drove out towards the main road heading towards Hope Woodland.
An hour of being on the road, Leo stopped at the roadside surrounded by trees and he looked around the surroundings while at the same time looking at the Holographic Map.
"I still need to go deeper into the woods before i reach it" Leo said as he went inside the car and drove towards a rocky trail leading towards the designated point for building a Stronghold.
"The air in this place is so refres.h.i.+ng, it"s so unlike in the Cities!" Leo opened the car window as he smelled the surrounding fresh air.
After 10 minutes of driving. Leo finally almost reach his destination.
Leo parked beside the road and got out of his car.
"Dammit, I still need to go a bit inside. Just why didn"t they just allowed it to be build anywhere..and now I"m here in the middle of nowhere. Well, technically this part of woods is still within the Woodland but it"s somewhat dangerous here. I"m just gonna take out the Thompson, just in case. It would be dangerous if I suddenly got attacked by something or someone while I"m here" Leon took out the Thompson Submachine gun from his Inventory.
"Would you look at this, one of best guns in the History. I"ve only handled the air-soft version of this gun before in my past life and now I have one right here for real and it"s little bit heavy because of its drum magazine. Even though I"ve already seen this earlier a lot, It"s still pretty amazing looking at it. Anyway, I should go" Leo was talking to himself as he inspected the gun up close, like he"s actually holding a diamond or something very delicate with his eyes s.h.i.+ning like a star.
Leo entered the woods and stopped for a bit when he was a bit away from the entrance of the woods and he slowly surveyed his surroundings for any possible places for dangers that might just pop out from. He slowly started making his way towards the place and at the same time decided to check out his Physical Status from the System when he saw that the part where he"s currently at doesn"t have a lot of places to hide.
"System, can you show me my current Personal Stats?"
[Yes Host]

"It really feels like I"m in a Game or more like a VRMMO instead" Leo exclaimed when he saw his Stats looking like the character stats in an online RPG game. " But I"m more interested on that Martial Skill that I got. I never really got the time to check this things earlier" He clicked the Body Strengthening.
[Bear G.o.d Body Strengthening Technique - While in battle, a manifestation of a Bear will appear behind you every time you exert your strength. The higher your Strength, the manifestation will become more clearer and life like. You will gain 1 point on Strength and Stamina every 3 days. (Limit: 150 stat points each)]
"Holy c.r.a.p! This skill is too OP! I"ll actually get 150 points each after its Limit is reached. " Leo was astonished when he read the description of the skill " This is practically an Op skill but it will take me 1 year and 3 months for this Skill to reach its limit" he said when he calculated how long he will get all of it.
"Hmm.. System, is it possible to raise my stats for doing repet.i.tive things like running or lifting heavy things?
[It is possible for the Host to raise his skills by doing something directly related to the Stat you want to raise. Results may vary]
"I see, it"s something I"m very familiar with" Leo was relieved to know that.
Rustle ~ Rustle ~
Leo was startled by the rustling sound that he immediately pointed the gun towards the direction where the sound is coming from.
He was nervously looking at the shaking bushes or just an overgrown gra.s.s.
Gulp ~
Leo gulped from nervousness but when he saw what came out of the bushes, he was immediately relieved, It was a bunny. His relief didn"t last long though as he noticed something floating above it.
[Lvl. 1 Mutated Rabbit (Undergoing Mutation)]
"Ohhh! s.h.i.+t!"
Ra ta ta ta ~ Ra ta ta ta~
When he saw that the Mutated Rabbit suddenly dashed at him. Leo immediately jumped backwards as he shot the Mutated Rabbit dead.
[You"ve successfully killed a Mutated Rabbit]
[Gained 1 Defender Coin]
A couple of system notifications rang within Leo"s mind.
"Whoo, It"s only a rabbit but that was scary" Leo said with a nervous laugh as he walks towards the rabbit corpse.
"Oh man, it"s full of holes. A pity, a rabbit meat for lunch ain"t that bad"
"System, what is the meaning of this? Does this mean that the animals have already started mutating?" Leo hastily asked the system when he noticed a serious problem here.
[Yes Host, the moment you"ve appeared in this world. The Earth have already started undergoing its Evolution and along with it the slow mutation of Animals]
Leo turned stiff when he heard the system confirmed his suspicions.
"Darn it! I can"t afford to waste time anymore and need to make that Stronghold fast. I also need to convinced my family to move with me from now on and I also need to get a flight to California and get Amanda and her family to come here" Leo said as he stored his gun back and made a quick dash towards the place that the map is indicating.
With 3 minutes of non-stop running without any surprises this time. Leo finally reached the place.
[Congratulations! You have discovered a land suitable for building the foundation of a Stronghold]
It was a land in circular like shape probably occupying an entire 100 acres of land, it is spa.r.s.e in trees but it was surrounded by numerous trees around the edges and there"s even a hill a nearby.
Leo took out the blueprint and started making his way towards it when all of a sudden, a system pop up appeared in front of him.
[Build the base of a Stronghold. Cost: 5000 Lumber, 5000 Stones, 2000 Iron
Build/No]
"Build it!" Leo shouted as the blueprint on his hand suddenly shot upwards and burst into light particles and as those light particles was absorbed by the ground. The ground started shaking as Buildings made of logs suddenly burst forth from the ground while a towering wall slowly surrounded it and as all of these is happening. Leo stumbled in shock and awe while also trying hard to keep his balance.
"So.F*cking.Cool!" When he saw the scene in front of him, Leo screamed.
A Village, the foundation of a Stronghold has been successfully created!
