Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system
269 The Guardian
Meanwhile, Viola's gaze lingered on the completed golden base that David had built behind him. Seeing the powerful aura emanating from the golden base, Viola's heart skipped a beat. She couldn't help but walk up to the base, extending her hand to touch it. A faint power entered her fingertips.
Feeling this power, Viola's face was filled with astonishment. She turned to David and asked, "Is this your base?" David gave a faint smile and nodded, leaving Viola even more shocked!
Having survived in the wasteland world for so long, she had never seen such a formidable base. Building a base here was an extremely difficult task due to the pervasive malevolent energy, the cruelty of the laws, and the numerous zombie monsters everywhere. Building a base here was destined to be a challenge. Coupled with scarce resources, even constructing an ordinary base was difficult. So, their Kui tribe's headquarters had remained nothing more than a cave.
This immediately caused envy to appear on Viola's face. A sturdy base was a place where they could fend off Zerg attacks. Looking at David, who seemed ordinary on the surface, she couldn't help but regard him differently. To be able to produce so many resources in such a short time and build such a sturdy base, he couldn't be an ordinary individual.
Simultaneously, Viola pondered and made a decision. She wanted David to help their Kui tribe build an equally strong base. So, suppressing her inner impulse, she said to David, "If you can, I hope you can help our Kui tribe build a similar base. You can set the conditions."
David had already anticipated this straightforward approach. From Viola's expression, he could discern her thoughts.
Currently, the base he was constructing here was only at the golden level. However, it was a system-generated product and thus of excellent quality. After all, how could an ordinary person produce something like this?
Listening to Viola's words, David contemplated. He still had over a hundred defense-type crystals in his warehouse, more than enough to rebuild a golden base. He knew that Viola's intentions were merely to utilize him temporarily, and one day, their alliance could turn into rivalry once again.
However, David was thinking beyond that. He needed all the resources of this wasteland world, whether information about the distribution of various forces, or information about the Zerg.
Viola clearly knew more about these matters, and David believed this could be a bargaining chip. Even if Viola tried to challenge him later with her base, he had confidence in breaking through her defenses since the base came from his own hands. Naturally, he could fully reclaim it.
"Deal!" David readily agreed. Viola became even more excited, delighted that their Kui tribe would finally bid farewell to the cave and have a sturdy base.
"But I do have conditions," David said, smiling at her once again. Viola nodded; in front of the base, she was willing to accept any conditions David might propose.
"First, provide me with a thousand junior pronuclei every month." David looked at Viola's expression.
Hearing the request for a thousand junior pronuclei per month, Viola contemplated for a moment and agreed. Their Kui tribe had been surviving here for a long time, so they naturally had an abundance of junior pronuclei. Even if it was two thousand per month, she believed it would be worthwhile.
"Second, guide me to find all the zombie monsters here."
This condition puzzled Viola. Guide him to find zombie monsters? What kind of logic was that? Each of the zombie monsters here had considerable strength. Why would David, a mere human, choose not to avoid them and instead take the initiative to seek them out?
Viola looked at David, utterly perplexed. But after a moment's thought, she realized she'd only be responsible for leading the way, so she agreed nonetheless.
"Third..." David looked at the leader of the group, who instantly shuddered and dared not meet David's gaze. Through their queen's demeanor, he had already become awestruck by David.
Now that he saw David's attention on him, he felt certain that his actions had angered him, and now it was time for him to seek revenge in his presence. This made his expression waver between pain and tears. If he had known today, he would never have dared to provoke this individual in the first place. David's lips curled into a faint smile as he extended his finger, pointing it at the man.
"I need a guardian."
Guardian? Viola looked at David, unsure of what he meant by "guardian." The leader of the group also raised his head, wearing a baffled expression.
At this point, David knew that the entrance from the apocalypse to the Wasteland world was only through the courtyard. However, there were no barriers there. In other words, if someone as powerful as him, an esper, or even zombies appeared during the apocalypse, there was a high possibility that they could enter the Wasteland world through the courtyard.
Hence, he needed to gather information about any outsiders, and this was where the role of a guardian came into play. This guardian would stay at the courtyard and constantly monitor any activities there.
Additionally, if something happened to Sally and the others, they could communicate through the guardian, considering that their current strength couldn't easily venture into the Wasteland world. David didn't explain this to Viola, he simply awaited her response.
Though puzzled, Viola didn't ask further questions. She waved her hand and said to the leader, "Bernard, from now on, you will follow David's arrangements and serve as the guardian. If any unexpected situations arise, I'll hold you accountable."
The man named Bernard hurriedly nodded in agreement. Though reluctant, he yielded to David's strength and agreed to take on the role of guardian. After laying out these three conditions, David opened a spatial door and sent Bernard to the courtyard. He instructed him not to leave the courtyard or enter the apocalypse. With that, he turned and left the place.
As he left, David summoned flying sword Rainbow. After infusing it with a trace of his aura, he had Rainbow stay alongside Bernard. Rainbow, possessing some intelligence, could be seen as a tool for David to monitor Bernard.
Now, David didn't have complete trust in this member of the Kui tribe, so it was wise to remain cautious. With all this done, David returned to the Wasteland world. The lone Bernard looked at the courtyard in front of him and couldn't help but nod in satisfaction. Here, he felt a hint of safety, away from the chaos of the Wasteland world.
Even though a flying sword hung over Bernard's head, he still felt that this was a rare opportunity. No backstabbing, no Zerg, no slaughter. For him, a member of the Kui tribe, this moment offered a warmth he had never experienced before. His respect and admiration for David reached its peak. Somehow, he faintly felt that David was the one who had saved him.
Back in the Wasteland world, David brought Mandy along with Viola to their Kui tribe's headquarters. Looking at the untouched cave in its natural state, David smiled.
