Stronghold In The Apocalypse 5 Bloody. F*cking. Hell!

"System, hurry and take out the Armor Suit from my Inventory to see!"

"Yes Host" just as the System voiced went out, a suit of futuristic looking armor appeared in front of Leo.

"Ohhhh!!! Awesome!!!" John immediately yelled in joy when the Red Mjolnir Powered Assault Protector appeared on the ground and he even danced around it, looking at it with stars in his eyes.

Leo touched the Armor with his hand "System, how do i get i- never mind" he tried to ask the System but a sudden system notification appeared in front of him.

[Would you like to use the Mjolnir Powered Assault Protector?]

"Yes" Leo just said it when the Armor broke into sections like that of Iron Man's suit and the sections move around his body as they fit themselves on Leo.

"Oh wow! This is sooo awesome and my body is so light!" Leo amazed voice sounded as he started jumping.

"I think i grew taller because of it, maybe around 7 feet? Now then, off i go" Leo started running fast towards the direction of his car.

"Wow, this armor is not ordinary, it has flexibility like that power suit on that G.I Joe movie" Leo said as he made some pretty neat tricks like somersaulting and jumping 3 meters high.

"That was fast, it only took me a minute to get here. This armor is damn badass" Leo praised as he stopped just outside the woods.

"Uhh System, how do i get this Armor off?" Leo asked with a worried tone and he realized he doesn't know how to come out.

[Please allow the System to integrate into the Powered Suit], the system's voice rang within his mind.

"Okay"

[Commencing System Integration…] Leo was hearing the sound of a busy phone within his mind.

[System Integration Complete, Hello Host] this time the system's voice rang within his helmet and something amazing happened inside it.

"Holy Shit! This is like the inside of the helmet of Iron Man!" Leo was startled not just because the System can now talk to him within his Armor but the armor literally turned to into some kind of an Iron Man suit.

"Wow, I can even see my heart rate and I can even zoom in my surroundings now. Wow, coupled with my Sniper rifle and this function...hehe" Leo made a creepy laugh when it dawned upon him on how his Armor just became far more dangerous.

"But this still doesn't fix on how do I get out of this Armor"

[The host just need to say the words "Retract" when you want to get out of the Armor and "Armor On" if you want to wear the Armor] the system's voice rang inside the helmet.

"Well, ain't that convenient. Retract" the Armor magically disappeared but the weird thing is, a futuristic looking bracelet appeared on his left arm.

"System, what is this?" he asked the system while tapping his finger on the bracelet.

[When the Armor is not being worn, it would not go to your Inventory, instead it would turn into a bracelet that can't be taken off] this time, the system's voice rang within his mind.

"Really?" as Leo tried to take off the bracelet.

"It really doesn't budge. It's like it stuck to my skin"

"Armor On!" and the Armor just magically appeared over his body.

"Wow, no more dramas like earlier huh" Leo said startled as he realized he was back inside the Armor.

"Retract" but this time a different scene happened, the Armor retreated in waves towards his left wrist in small round pieces.

"Eh? that was different this time.. but wow that was like Captain Bravo's Silver Skin in that anime Buso Renkin" Leo was certainly amazed by that.

"Well, I'm not surprised if more surprises like this happens in the future and I should get going. It's already noon" said Leo as he walked towards his car but just as he got inside, the system screen appeared but this time it was unstable like a T.V in static.

[Warning! Warning! Warning! Incoming message from Gaia!] the words appeared on the screen.

"Gaia? Why?" Leo was puzzled and a blurred face on the screen appeared " That's certainly Gaia" Leo told himself as he saw the silhouette of a woman from it.

"Hello there Leo, you might have already guessed who I am" a melodious voice rang out.

"Well yeah, and she has a nice voice" Leo thought but didn't speak on it fearing of offending her.

[This is only a recorded message before I went into a deep sleep and its because the Earth is currently undergoing a difficult process of Evolution and needed guidance but before this happened, I made sure to send this message. I was watching you since the time you woke here which was a few hours ago and I noticed that you were making progress too fast than even I anticipated so I decided that the Apocalypse will immediately start 3 days from now. Good luck and have a good time playing around with the System I gave you! XOXO!]
