PERA-TERRAFORMING
{5th day}
Kurt and Eva were still asleep on the bed that Kurt bought from the system. After last night's hard work, both of them were tired and slept for about 8 hours. It was still dark outside. The planet was quite far from its star (alpha Centauri-A), as it is known that- farther the planet, the slower are its revolutions, which means longer days and nights. Kurt naturally knew about this.
He was awake. Looking out the window, he was thinking of Rena. The moments they spent together until now flashed in his mind. He wanted to meet her again and live together with both Rena and Eva.
He knew what capabilities the system had and after experiencing all this, he could surely succeed if he tries.
Then, after getting up without waking Eva up, he went out of the house. Wearing a black robe that he just bought from the system store, he went for the explorer robots. Kurt always wanted to try robes and leather armor from movies he watched on earth. But it was nothing special.
Just outside the door, kurt saw 4 tank-like figures .kurt walked to them and said;
"System!, display the exploration report"
[Showing exploration report....]
[Maping of the planet complete...
1. Dry rocky area- the middle equator (70% of the planet's surface)
2. Polar ice caps- on poles of the planet (25% of planet's surface)
DING! water availability confirmed...
3. Active Volcanic areas (5% of the planet's surface) ...
DING! no tectonic activities detected....]
Kurt was delighted to know that water was available here, and the volcanic area was 5% of the total planet's surface, which was still a lot. As there was no tectonic activity, it was a relief that there will be fewer chances of earthquakes and sudden volcanic eruptions.
[soil samples check...found iron oxide, titanium oxide, limestone, silica, and other chemical substances in soil.....]
[ gold, silver, iron, copper, osmium, tungsten, and other 92 elements found...]
[Found mining sites...., found dry salt reserves....]
Kurt was nodding in satisfaction as the same elements were present here as on the earth, with salt reserves.
[Atmospheric analysis complete.....
1.The planet's atmosphere is found to be about 350 miles(460km)thick, but most of the air density is within ten miles (16km) of the surface.
2. The air in the planet's atmosphere is made up of approximately 58 percent nitrogen and 1 percent oxygen with 40 percent Carbon dioxide. Air also has small amounts of other gases, too, such as methane, argon, neon, and hydrogen.
3. Average temperature of the planet's atmosphere is 20°C (68°F)
4. Air pressure at the surface is 15 pounds/inch square(about 1kg/cm square).....]
The environment was quite similar to the earth's if the high CO2 levels and high temperature is excluded.
[ Found a high altitude and solid ground.....
sending the location to the host.]
As Kurt received the location in his mind, he recognized the place. It was the same place where that dimensional shard was found by him.
[Exploration Report Complete...]
Kurt, after some time of thinking, goes back to the wooden house. Seeing her already awake, sitting on bed wearing a new set of clothes, he grabs Eva;
"wait..your majesty..! kyaa!!!!.." and holds her up and starts sprinting in the direction where the shard was discovered, carrying her in his arms. Naturally, she said ;
"wai.., yo-your majesty, what are you doing?" Her eyes were cold, but the face was red, which hinted she was angry, but in reality, it was a hard blush! And Kurt naturally knew about it, so he keeps running...
Both of them reach the same high walls after 2 minutes of running...
"Yo-Your majesty, can-can you let me down now?" Kurt was still princess carrying her while looking at the familiar high walls. Her voice had a little irritated tone, but the stuttering gave up the hidden embarrassment.
"Hmm.." While giving a nod, he lets her down. Reaching the ground, she quickly retreats back from the hungry beast who can eat her up at any given chance.
But right now, Kurt was attending the system to set up a base here. The system asked;
[Set up a design for your base....]
Kurt remembered that the triangle and hexagonal shapes were the strongest shapes for buildings, so he gave instructions as:
"Create a step-Pyramidal main building of 15 km height and walls surrounding it in hexagonal shape of 10 km height."
{A.N- Mt. Everest is about 10 km in height}
[ Structural plan received...., commencing base establishment...., No C.P consumed for the base formation...]
The ground shakes violently. Both Eva and Kurt move away from the walls. Dust forms all around the area, then the shaking stops.
Both Kurt and Eva were in a trance about what had just happened? And where is the base? There was nothing in front of them?
But then suddenly
"BOOOM!"
The ground shattered, and a long structure came out. With each passing moment, it kept increasing in width and height, step by step & level by level. The ground was literally tearing up, and the noise was ear-damaging.
In just 2 minutes, dust settled down, and one could see a humongous pyramidal structure surrounded by tall walls. Those titanic walls were not up to the height of the pyramid building, so the top-half was visible from below.
The view of the dark black and purple striped pyramid in the center of gigantic walls gave the impression of an ancient alien establishment in Kurt's mind;
'Well, isn't that amazing looking? If it was earth, every researcher would have already reached here to investigate this absurdly big pyramid.
'So..., where is the door?'
Kurt gets close to the walls, and a hole forms in front of him in a nearly 10-meter-thick wall.
'Oh! how convenient,' he thinks while passing through the hole, as it again closes up behind them.
On passing through the walls, he saw the main black pyramidal skyscraper. It was widespread at the bottom and narrowed down on reaching the heights.
"Simply marvelous!" Eva spoke while looking up at the building. Then she turns her head to praise Kurt 'ROYALLY' but she saw him looking at her with a smug on his face. Which annoyed her and, instead of giving a compliment to him, she said;
"The System is really an extraordinary existence. It can make such colossal structures in just a few seconds."
Kurt was now looking at her, stupefied. Eva was laughing, he wanted to say something, but the sudden humiliation prevented any sound from coming out of his mouth.
