NOVEL NEXT Chapter 88: Base.1
After dealing with the clown, Lorien then started walking toward the school, ready to start his work.
He and Saigai had already finished discussing most of the details, there are only some small things left but they can be changed later on so there is no issue.
'Let's start then!'
Walking to one of the walls of the school, Lorien placed his hand on it, then, he began using his power.
[Dream/Reality]: Erase
As a consequence, the entire school building instantly disappeared, it was as if someone took an eraser and removed it from the 'drawing' called World.
Following this, Lorien didn't immediately start constructing the base as some may guess.
Before that, he has to deal with all the other structures and things that are still in the way, this includes trees, cars, and anything in between.
What he wants to do is create a completely empty and even ground so he can freely make whatever he wants, basically, he is now preparing the canvas that he'll be 'drawing' on!
And it didn't take long for him to achieve it despite the school's large size, but after doing so, he couldn't help but frown.
'This place is smaller than I thought...'
The reason Lorien chose a school at first is because of the size, but it appears that he still overestimated it.
'There is no way that this place will be big enough to carry everything we planned'
Seeing this, Lorien decided to expand the place! he started going from one side to the other 'pushing' the walls away and engulfing whatever appeared in his way.
He kept repeating this for a while until the land expanded to about 6 times the size!
And in doing so, he of course destroyed a large number of buildings that previously surrounded the school and also killed all of the zombies he found while he was at it; moreover, he also had to create new walls to prevent new zombies from coming in.
'Okay, this should do it!
Now, with a clean and complete 'Canvas' ready, Lorien finally began creating establishments!
According to the plan, Lorien divided the land into 3 parts using a quarter-meter-high stone wall.
The first one is for the Villa that he and Saigai will be living in, the second is where he'll make an apartment building for the survivors to stay in, and the final one will house the necessary facilities that will allow this base to function such as water reservoirs, food storage facility, and power generators among many other things.
'Let's start with the necessary facilities first...'
Walking to the back where the the part of the land he prepared for them is situated, Lorien chose the left-most corner and created a small warehouse, there, he created 12 diesel power generators, four of which are for service while the rest are backup in case something unexpected happens.
Then, he started building a multi-leveled underground storage right under it which he connected to the warehouse; In this space spanning numerous underground floors, he place a large amount of fuel, enough for decades of usage.
Following this, he made his way to the right-most corner, there, he created a huge water reservoir; This reservoir was not only above the ground it also extended very deep beneath it allowing for bigger storage space.
'This water should be enough for their consumption for around half a year, but it seems that I need to find another water source or maybe make a small river water treatment plant as there is a river near us...'
Shaking his head and deciding to leave it for later, Lorien finally walked to the space he left in the middle between the reservoir and power generators, this space is especially left for food storage.
Using his ability, a warehouse abruptly appeared in the empty space completely filling it, but he wasn't finished yet!
Underground, a huge storage space was also created, but this time, Lorien didn't limit its size as he used it to fill all the empty space below the ground! This included the space beneath the land prepared for the Villa and Apparent!
Moreover, like the fuel storage space, it is also a multi-leveled underground space, so Lorien wasn't afraid of running out of space; If required, all he needs to do is make another floor!
After doing this, He immediately began filling it with food, most of them were survival kits and food that can last well over 20 years, but there were also imperishable food items and normal food included.
This food creation continued until Lorien felt his energy reserves nearly depleting which shows the astronomical amount he made!
From what Lorien is able to calculate, the food here should be enough for 500 hundred people to eat for at least 100 years; If it weren't for the underground storage being multi-leveled, and the the land being at least a few football fields in size, this space wouldn't be enough to house all of it.
Feeling his energy reserves, Lorien finally walked out of the food storage facility and made his way to Saigai, sitting next to her.
Seeing this, the crowd of survivors who were watching looked at him in both awe and worship, some of them even had the boldness to start screaming.
"God! You must be god right!"
"Yes, that must be it!"
"God!"
"Thank you for saving us!"
Hearing those shouts, Lorien who was resting looked at them with a frown on his face, he could clearly see the fanaticism in their eyes.
'It seems that seeing me use my ability broke those guys...'
Shaking his head, Lorien quickly threw those thoughts aside and spoke, his voice easily overwhelming theirs.
"Shut up!"
Shocked by Lorien's sudden outbreak, the survivors instantly quieted down.
"Let me be clear! I am no god! I am just a human with some abilities! If I hear any of you calling me that again I'll throw you out!"
Looking at Lorien's irritated face, non of them responded as they were afraid of angering him again.
"Am I clear?" Said Lorien waiting for their reply.
"Y-Yes!"
"C-Clear..."
"Sorry..."
".."
Looking at them answering one by one, Lorien finally looked away, closed his eyes, and started recovering his energy under Saigai's bewildered eyes.
'Why did he lash out like this...'
