Stronghold In The Apocalypse 2 All System Operational

Inside a dark, large size studio apartment and in one of its bedrooms. A guy was sitting up, panting a lot and looking a little bit pale. Not only that, he was literally drench in cold sweat.

"I'm still alive, was all that just a nightmare?" the person muttered but when he looked around the dark room, he was immediately stunned.

"Th-this is not my room, where am i??" he said in shock but panicky voice.

The person hurriedly tried to get out of the bed and when one of his foot just touched the floor. He was suddenly assaulted by an intense headache that left him screaming and rolling on the bed while holding his head with his feet flailing around. The pain lasted for a good 10 seconds.

"Dammit all! that felt like an eternity! Shit! Shit! Shiiit! That seriously fucking hurt like hell!" he yelled, still puffing and huffing from the pain.

"This is soo f*cked up! It wasn't a dream after all and now I'm in someone else's body and what's the weirdest thing is, I'm not even panicking or anything. Haiz, someone probably interfered expecting I'd panic or maybe it was just because I've always wanted something like this to happen and now this, what happens now?" the guy was pacing around the bright lit room talking to himself.

"Oh boy, that survey It wasn't just an ordinary survey, It's a...wait what it's name supposed to be?.. Ahh! It's a Magical Survey! Yep. Magical Survey…...and it's actually happening, for real" he said as his face kept changing from different kind of expressions while looking at the blue screen like hologram floating in front of him.

He sighed as he process all information he just received and then he got up while the hologram disappeared by itself and he walk towards the large mirror as he look at the current reflection of himself.

"From those memories, I'm 27 year old and called Leo, Leo Wood, what a weird name and I'm actually a YouTuber... now that is new and I post videos about games and stuff. I live in Manchester and I actually drop-out from University and I have parents and a sister that lives in Sheffield and this dude... actually died in his sleep because of over exhaustion from continuous workout" Leo said like he's actually talking to his own reflection.

" And right now, I'm half naked. *Whistles* I'm actually a looker and now..I'm wondering why this guy even became a YouTuber instead of becoming a Model. Look! I even have that perfect bod with a f*cking six pack. This dude probably even had a lot girls stealing glances at him while walking on the street. Dammit!" Leo was complaining to himself while using both of his hands trying to emphasize every part of the body of his current self on the mirror.

Leo suddenly sighed to himself and sat down on his bed while he took a look at the digital clock "It's still 4 am in the morning but I don't have the mood to sleep because of all this. I think i should see what this System Gaia gave me instead".

2 minutes later.

"Okay.. I don't know how to open it"

[Host, should just say or think the words "Open Builder" and the System will appear by itself]

Leo got startled from the sudden voice that appeared in his head but he gained his composure immediately like he was already expecting things.

"Open Builder"

After he said that Two Holograms appeared at the same time.

"Is that a map? The map is still the same world map from before and there are small like legends in there" Leo noticed that one of the holograms showed the current world map but his attention shifted to the other one as this is the hologram that he's really looking forward to seeing.

[BUILDER SYSTEM]

[Stronghold Blueprints]

[Building Materials]

[Arsenal]

[Skill Tomes]

[Summons]

[Miscellaneous Items]

"Let's see the Arsenal first" Leo excitedly clicked it but a Warning notification appeared instead.

[You can't access the Arsenal, Skill Tomes and Summons section unless you have imputed money to your Inventory]

"Dammit. System, how do i put money in the Inventory?"

[Open the Inventory and put the desired amount inside like your putting inside a box]

"Ohh, I get it. It's like those cliche things on those novels, Piece of cake" Leo bolted towards his wallet and took two £50 pound note from it and then he opened his Inventory and put it inside, like he already did a hundred times.

Leo then saw that a £100 was generated on the £ Symbol that was beside a "D" Symbol which looks like the currency for the so called Defender Coins inside.

"Awesome, now let's open that Arsenal" Leo immediately opened the Arsenal section ignoring the items inside his Inventory.

[ARSENAL]

[Melee]

[Firearms]

[Military Vehicles]

[Ammunition]

[Armor Suits]

Leo clicked Weapons and a vast row of weapons appeared.

"Huh? Only the WWI & WWII weapons are available and those modern and more advance weapons are locked and It can only be opened by the required levels for a Stronghold. Crap, I don't even have a Stronghold. The only thing that consoles me is that these old weapons are at least cheaper than in the real world, only around £900 - £1200 " Leo was stunned when he saw those more advanced weapons are all locked and that only those old Firearms are available for purchase.

"I guess, it's better than nothing and I don't really a need a weapon right now as I still have that Tommy gun that was among my rewards but I also need to build a Stronghold soon. Let's see those blueprints first then before taking a look at those Planes and Ships. Especially those Armor Suits" Leo really wanted to take a look at those things right but he still knows what's really important for now.

[STRONGHOLD BLUEPRINTS]

[Level 1 Blueprint]

[Level 2 Blueprint]

[Level 3 Blueprint]

[Level 5 Blueprint]

[Level 6 Blueprint]

[Level 7 Blueprint]

[Level 8 Blueprint]

[Level 9 Blueprint]

[Level 10 Blueprint]

Leo clicked the Level 3 Blueprint out of curiosity and a description of it appeared.

[Level 3 Blueprint - one of the required Items for upgrading a Level 2 Stronghold to Level 3.

Cost: 2500 Defender Coins]

"It's actually a blueprint for a walled Castle, so cool! But I'm getting the feeling that it's actually expensive" Leo muttered in a low voice when he saw how much one of these cost.

[Level 1 Blueprint - the base blueprint for building a Level 1 Stronghold. Cost: 200 Defender Coins]

"What the hell!? It cost 200 Defender Coins!? I don't even have a...wait a minute. The Starter Pack! It should have at least one inside, right? The System can't be that petty, right?" Leo was talking to himself like an Idiot. He was very nervous because his very own Survival is hanging on that Blueprint so immediately opened the Started Pack from the Inventory.

[You have successfully opened the Starting Pack, you will get the following Items]

[100 Defender Coins]

[10,000 Lumber, 10,000 Iron, 10,000 Stone]

[1 Sentry Gun Turret]

[1 Tracking Device]

[1 Level 1 Blueprint]

Leo was nervously looking at the Items slowly appearing at the Hologram, that he didn't even feel any excitement when he saw a very advance looking Turret. He's only concern is if he will get a Level 1 Blueprint and when he finally saw the Item, he was looking forward to see.

"Ohhhhh! F*cking hell yeah! Thank you System! I'm saved!" Leo was yelling hysterically inside his room and when he finally gained his bearings, he immediately asked the System for help.

"System, how do i use this blueprint?" Leo happily asked while holding a large old looking paper in both hands. It was the blueprint, he was able to take it out from his Inventory.

[Please refer to the World Map for a suitable place to use the Blueprint]

"The Map? Right" Leo hurriedly opened the World Map and zoomed in for Manchester. Leo saw a lot of legends, one of them is £ and gold bar legend and a legend that looks like the Blueprint.

" That Blueprint or whatever like thing is probably where it's suitable to build one" Leo clicked one of it that's near him.

"Nice! That's Hope Woodland. It's only an hour drive from here and that's the best place to choose from the rest as the road also passes through Sheffield where "my" parents and sister are and it would be even more convenient to pick them up in the future" Leo decided that would be the place where he would first build his Stronghold and it's also the nearest available plot of land for building the Stronghold because of the System Requirements and at the same time, it's also nearest place from his family and because he already decided that he would take care of them as a way of repaying the former owner of his body since the start, but the one thing that really prompted him on this decision is because he never grew up with his parents or even had sister. He was just an orphan before all of this happened to him and more importantly because he also wanted to feel the warmth of having a family.
