About 1.5km away from Fort Yano.
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
Nathan stopped in front of a two-story building and put Aena down on her feet.
Although her eyes were covered by the thermal vision goggles she was wearing, Nathan could feel her body trembling.
"Wait here," he said before turning away and heading to the zombies nearby.
"But--!"
She wasn't able to finish what she was saying when Nathan suddenly disappeared right in front of her.
"What?!"
She was startled and quickly blinked a few times, thinking that she might just be imagining things.
"What's happening?!"
Roar!
She turned to where the roar was coming from.
She saw a D2 accompanied by a group of zombies.
She was well aware that although the D2 had low AGI, it had high STR and VIT, and was like an unstoppable tank.
She took a step back and just when she was about to turn around and run away...
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Nathan appeared right in front of one of the zombies and cut it down with one swing with a large axe.
And right after he cut one down, he disappeared once again and appeared in front of another zombie.
Whoosh!
Aena's jaw dropped.
Nathan was cutting the 3-meter all zombies one by one all by himself.
Yes, Nathan proved to her that he was definitely strong, especially what he did to her 'family' back in Fort Yano.
However, she and her 'family' did some hunting of their own in the past.
And whenever they encountered a group led by Rank 2, they were always very careful in dealing with it because aside from the fact the Rank 2s have OP stats, if you don't kill it right away, it can also call reinforcements.
Nathan disappeared once again.
This time he appeared in front of the D2.
Whoosh!
It met the same fate.
"ONE SWING?!"
He disappeared again.
Whoosh!
He was blinking in and out lIKE a light bulb. And every time he appeared, a zombie is cut down in half.
Whoosh!
Nathan finally cut down the last zombie.
There was a [Blue] Treasure Chest and he opened it before heading back to Aena.
Aena, on the other hand, just stared at Nathan.
'Are all Prophets this powerful…?'
'He didn't even use that blinking power when he fought us…'
Nathan finally got in front of her.
"Follow behind me," he said before entering the two-story building.
***
Nathan and Aena climbed the stairs and got to the 2nd floor.
Before going to the 2nd floor, Nathan made sure to check the entire 1st floor first.
He decided to do the same as well with the 2nd floor.
A few moments later…
Ka-cha!
Nathan opened a door and entered the largest room on the 2nd floor.
'I've already checked the entire building. This is definitely the largest room…'
'Also, looks like the foundation is still strong…'
Aena entered the room and was standing behind him.
She was confused because although Nathan said to her back at Fort Yano that a little girl was waiting for him, there was no sign of any little girl here.
"Help me move all the things to the corner. Just stick with the light ones," Nathan said and then began moving a large table.
"Okay," Aena said and then began picking up chairs.
A few moments later…
After finally moving all of the things to the corner, Nathan and Aena were standing on the side.
Nathan summoned the RV he got from Earnest.
Next, he summoned 20 boxes of food and drinks, and a dagger.
Aena was surprised to see the items, especially the RV.
At first, she thought Nathan's summoning power was only limited to weapons. But when she saw him summoning clothes, a jug of water and thermal vision goggles, she already made the conclusion that he was capable of summoning other things. However, she wasn't expecting he had this many items and it seemed like the storage space or wherever it was coming from was quite big.
Nathan gave her the dagger.
"Put all the contents inside the boxes into the RV. I don't care how you put them, even if it's messy. Just put them inside."
Aena received the dagger.
"Okay."
"I'll be back within 15 minutes."
"You're leaving me here alone?!"
"I left something at Fort Yano. Be sure to be done when I come back," he said and activated [Coward's Way].
***
A few minutes later…
Fort Yano, Western Road.
Nathan was invisible and was walking over to the fence of the Military Compound.
There were civilians walking and standing around the Western Road.
Meanwhile, inside the compound, there were a few soldiers patrolling.
He jumped over the fence.
Thud.
Upon landing, he immediately headed to search for the hangar or the place where they kept the helicopters.
A few moments later…
Nathan arrived at an open area where a couple of armored vehicles, tanks and helicopters were parked.
'Hmm…'
'Now that I have a closer look, I just realized that some of them look cheap or old...'
'Very different from what I've seen back in the Government Shelter in Burrow City…'
'As a matter of fact, are these things even safe to fly…?'
He decided to check the serial number of the "good-looking" assault helicopters to see where were they created.
Muwin was one of those countries that didn't invest in building their own military arsenal and would rather buy from other countries.
He remembered reading an article a few years ago where Muwin bought secondhand faulty helicopters from Iustia which led to the death of many Muwinian soldiers because it crashed from the sky.
He remembered also reading another article where Muwin bought military weapons from Xudonia. Although they were brand new and powerful, they weren't built to last and there were also a few incidents where they malfunctioned.
Now, did Muwin decide to build their own military arsenal?
Of course not, because of corruption.
In the end, the government of Muwin decided to buy from Kholodnia and it was even a buy-one-take-one deal.
And so far, he has never heard of any accidents related to faulty military arsenals.
Putting aside the dark history of Kholodnia because they were the main villain in WW1 and were also the main villain in WW2 along with Heiwa, when it comes to military arsenal quality, it was topnotch.
Well, this is what the winners of the two world wars say; Regis and Iustia.
According to them, the two villainous countries, Kholodia and Heiwa, were so ahead of their time when it came to military technology that the entire European countries had to band together in order to defeat Kholodnia, while the entire Asian continent had to band together to defeat Heiwa. In addition to that, Iustia, who was neither part of Europe and Asia but had colonies on both continents and was also a powerful country had to step in and help as well.
And ever since the defeat of these two villainous countries, in order to make sure Kholodnia and Heiwa, especially Kholodnia don't rise to power again and throw the world into another world war, the winners slapped them with many conditions, especially when it came to the military sector.
In the case of Heiwa, they decided to focus on developing its economic sector which made them one of the most prosperous countries in the world, sitting among the Top 5 spots.
Meanwhile, in the case of Kholodnia, they followed the conditions. But two decades later, they resumed developing military technology so they were slapped with sanctions by the United Nations (UN). But even so, they still became one of the most prosperous countries in the world, sitting among the Top 15 spots.
Nathan found the serial number of one of the "good-looking" assault helicopters he was checking.
'Made in Kholodnia, huh…'
'I just hope the controls are written in Regisian because I can't speak Kholodnian, let alone read it…'
'Also, I hope this is still functioning…'
He absorbed the assault chopper into his [Artifact] Gold Spatial Finger.
'Sigh…'
'Another huge amount of space…'
'But what can I do…?'
The total storage space inside his [Artifact] Gold Spatial Finger was that of a tennis court. And so far, he already had a speedboat, System items, non-System items, food, water and an RV.
This is why he had Aena transfer the contents of the boxes of food and water into the RV so that he can have more space.
'Sigh…'
'I'm still tempted to go to the Central and buy street food…'
'Time to go back to Aena and then to Zita…'
Voooom!
