Apocalypse Land Rebirth Chapter 141-145 (Patreon)

Disclaimer:

The fantasy world settings are not mine but everything other than that is my own creation.

All the character’s in the story that have any Adult interaction are 18 years or older.

All the forced situations that appear are all just an act by the protagonist to fool the enemies and gain benefits.

Chapter 141: the 7 key holders have met

Also their unity is their strength.

Instead of forming team with blind idiots, forming a team with similar people like them is the best.

Thinking of this she has decided to bring the other three people here to talk.

If they are okay with this then they can stay here and if not they can stay at her base.

That is her thought.

But she has decided to move here and Nubia that thinks similar to her would do the same.

So it is not a problem.

After Natasha left Vicky talked to Radha and Sakura with some intimate time.

Vicky was sure that Natasha requires few hours to come back and Vicky don’t want to waste such a good opportunity.

So he played with the girls filling the place with pheromones and love juices.

By the time they cleaned up Natasha arrived here with three other girls.

Vicky was on the lookout and looked at the three people that are following Natasha.

There is also a monster beast which looked like a cat but also a big one.

Vicky has to understand these people slowly before trusting them completely.

When they arrived they were shocked to see that such a structure was made inside a cave.

Also they felt that the temperature here is much warmer than outside and it was just perfect.

There is also strong magic energy that Rose felt because of her connection with the land and plants.

With that they started to introduce.

Vicky was the first one to start the introduction.

“I am Vicky, my awakened skill or ability is like jack of all trades.

I have lived for 15 years in the apocalypse world and entered the apocalypse land.”

“I am Nubia, my awakened skill or ability is related to wind.

I have lived for 9 years in the apocalypse world just like Natasha.

This is my pet cat Sekhmet.

It is harmless and can detect the dangers in advance.”

“I am Radha, my awakened skill or ability is related to water.

I have lived for 8 years in the apocalypse world.”

“I am Rose, my awakened skill or ability is related to healing and land.

I have lived for 6 years in the apocalypse world.

I can communicate with plants and know some important things.”

“I am Sakura, my awakened skill or ability is related to fire.

I have lived for 8 years in the apocalypse world.”

“I am Ginny, my awakened skill or ability is related to mind reading and mind control.

I have lived for 6 years in the apocalypse world.”

With the introductions they have a basic understanding of each other.

Vicky then explained about the situation in the apocalypse land.

Also he explained his stance with Radha and Sakura in order to avoid any troubles in the future.

They discussed about their situations and finally decided to form a team.

With that the ark system gave out a message.

“Ding

Congratulations for all the 7 descendents of the progenitors to form a team.

The ark entry time has been added for all to reach 14 hours a day and it can be accumulated.

The ark space of all the key holders is connected forming a single huge space with specified boundaries for privacy.

All the ark space is increased by 7 times with the team formation.

Now you can pass through from one portion of the ark space to another with the permission from the owner of the designated ark space.

The broken ark is restored and the cumulative ark level has reached tier 3 of 1 star level.

Further upgrade needs collective materials for the upgrade.

The materials information is made into a book at the ark library.

Please check the information.

The ark can only be upgraded collectively.

………..”

A long series of information appeared in the minds of the 7 key holders and they all smiled happily.

This means that they have life saving ark space right now.

Also the amount of space increased by nearly 4 times for Vicky, Radha and Sakura and 3 times for the other 4 girls.

They are all very happy with the amount of increase in the space.

Unfortunately to use this space they have to repair it first.

Well it is a problem to repair it because there are not many resources that they can collect at their current situation.

But they are not in a hurry as there are many things they can take from the humanity’s four faced city.

There is no sympathy towards these people in any of the 7 people as they have experience the cruelty of the world.

Here strong survives and weak dies.

In this hell like world if they are not strong enough to survive, it is better to die than to suffer.

After the brief discussion they all decided to stay here and Vicky decided to build a wooden house for the four of them.

Vicky and the girls already had their own small room so they did not have to construct any.

For that the dead trees outside can be used.

The new forest of strange plants can also be used.

Rose can identify the plants that have more strength and easy to use and can make suggestion for the group easily.

So they group departed from here.

The number of people in the group is four and it was Vicky, Nubia, Natasha and Rose.

Ginny is not needed here so she was left at the cave to monitor any movements in the surrounding area.

This is one of her ability related to mind.

After the upgrade she can sense the surrounding area more than a normal eye could see.

Also she can see through the ground for sneak attacks.

That is the best thing about her ability.

Her sensing is far stronger than the sensitivity of Rose even though she has earth elemental affinity.

The group went a little far as they have to cut off more huge plants…...

Chapter 142: the suspicion of descendents of the progenitors

Her sensing is far stronger than the sensitivity of Rose even though she has earth elemental affinity.

The group went a little far as they have to cut off more huge plants and don’t want to show any changes in their area.

Even though some of them are plants they would have wood instead of green stems.

These kind of young mature plants are rare and hard to find.

Also these kinds of plants have vines that would act like defensive mechanism and attacks the enemies protecting the tree.

In this kind of situation people like Rose are very useful.

They can communicate with the trees but they can also confuse them.

Rose would confuse them and Vicky’s group would act on cutting down the tree.

That would be the quick way of getting the wood for their usage.

……………

While Vicky and other are doing their work Ginny was talking to Radha and Sakura about Vicky.

She found that Vicky is their husband and a very good cook.

Well girls gossip more and they can easily mingle with each other.

……………

The four faced city is in turmoil after the loss of many materials and spar.

They are facing a situation where the defenses of the city might break at any given moment because of the loss of energy supply.

The big families are pacing around thinking of a way to solve the situation.

Unfortunately they did not have a solution.

But they heard big news from the person that went to check the things.

Not only rare materials and spar were gone but also all the food and water supplies along with various valuables are also gone.

Everything was looted very cleanly.

Other might not suspect but the ancient families suspect that someone must have gotten their hands on space equipment or something like that.

They also have space equipment but the space inside is small.

It should be around 100 cubic meters.

The ancient families still has food and water in their space equipment as emergency reserves of a family.

They did not have too many space equipment with them.

The food and water they brought outside are their main reserves.

But they still could not believe that someone took everything away so easily and quickly.

This is because the space equipment would not hold so many things.

On conservative estimate even if there are 100 storage space equipments, it is not enough to store all the things that were stolen.

Because of this they are really shocked and don’t know if something different is happening.

At that time in the meeting hall one of the nerdy members of the ancient family spoke.

“There is one possibility.

It is said that the progenitors that created earth from the apocalypse land has huge space equipment called the progenitor’s ark.

It is said that the crazy progenitor has divided it into 7 pieces dividing it with the other 6 progenitors.

Based on the incidents before the apocalypse there disappearance of many materials, it is safe to assume that those 7 progenitors have chosen descendents now.

They should be the ones that actually stole our things.

That is the only possible explanation.”

When he said this thing the people in the meeting hall quieted down.

Yes it is possible for this to happen.

No it is the thing that happened.

They are the ancient families but they are also the traitors of the progenitors.

They used the underhanded means to get the information from those progenitor families and killed all the descendents of the progenitor families.

As they died these traitors changed the faces and acted like the saviors of the world creating various stories of their glory.

They took the storage space equipment, techniques and all the secrets of the progenitors for themselves.

But they did not expect that the progenitor families are still alive and have descendents for all 7 progenitors.

Now it has become their biggest problem.

They have to find these descendants of the progenitors and get everything from them.

For that they have to start the investigation.

They are sure to find the cause of this through proper investigation.

So the issued the orders to investigate all the abnormalities since the start of the apocalypse extreme heat.

Well with the investigation they can easily find some holes.

Like Vicky that left the army without entering the four faced city.

It was strange for a person to not to enter a protected city and also predict so many things.

Then the matter related to Sakura that killed few assassins and escaped.

The leader of the assassination organization is from the ancient family.

Similarly the incident related to Radha and the people she killed.

But it was a small incident that was quickly covered under the sheets.

Then it is related to Natasha that faked her death to escape from them.

There is also something related to a pendent.

The incident related to Rose which was a common incident again and was pushed under the sheets.

Then the incident related to Nubia which did not have any records and did not came as important.

Then the incident related o Ginny which is also strange on how she was able to solve it.

Right now based on the information they had, they have 4 suspects.

One is Vicky, second is Natasha, third his Sakura and fourth is Ginny.

All these people are suspected to be the descendents of the progenitors.

Also all these people showed very strange behavior.

Like Ginny buying large amounts of food and water using all of her wealth.

Like Vicky predicting the future more accurately and collecting some strange things.

Like Sakura’s sudden betrayal.

Like Natasha’s sudden change to leave the Special Forces and even fake her death.

Also she bombed her own house too.

All of these things are suspicious.

The most recent information is that Vicky and Sakura are in the same group along with another woman that is close to them.

Chapter 143: monster tree hunt

All of these things are suspicious.

The most recent information is that Vicky and Sakura are in the same group along with another woman that is close to them.

This is a very suspicious matter.

With that they immediately started to investigate to find out if there are any new entries to the four faced city from the eastern direction and northern direction.

Most of the time, the refugees enter from the side they came from because their country people are in that direction.

That is why they decided to search from that direction right now.

But it would not be fruitful.

All they could find are people entering with beggar like appearance.

But there are not many of them.

On that particular day there are only 3 or 4 of them from each gate.

All the other people are identified but the new entries are not identified.

With the question it is not hard to check the situation and find what the problem is.

They immediately searched the city to find this beggar like people.

This is a hard job because to search.

But with the extensive man power they were able to discover all the beggars both living and dead.

Even with all this they could not find two beggars.

Immediately they understood that these two people might be the possible suspects.

They did not find these two leaving the city and they have some witnesses that said that these beggars have roamed all over the city but they never actually begged.

The more they investigated the more suspicious they became and decided to find these two people.

Well the current loss of supplies, spars and rare treasures is enough to make them search the city upside down.

So no amount of manpower is left out.

Except for the main guards at the entrance to see if they come into the city again, every guard and worker is on search.

Every house, place, nook and corner was searched.

Well it will take time for the search to complete.

………..

On the other hand Vicky and the girls came to a plant that has wood.

It looked like a normal tree.

In fact this is not a normal tree because it is only in its plant stage.

There are many roots and vines hanging from the tree.

Vicky knows that they would attack all kinds of living organisms to take them as nutrients for the main tree.

This is an omnivorous organism.

If there are forest elves here they would have definitely cut down this kind of tree.

They trees they grow would help others instead of attacking and eating them.

This tree would do that.

Vicky let Rose communicate with the tree while standing far away.

Vicky took out a long sword just in case.

This kind of root and vine attacks cannot be solved with guns.

They need strong cutting force instead of piercing force.

If the sword did not work Vicky would take out a chain saw to cut the tree.

As Vicky readied his equipment, the other women Natasha and Nubia are also ready.

Unfortunately they only had guns and daggers.

So Vicky gave them a sword each for the coming battle.

This place is over 30 kilometers away from the city of four faces and also it is 10 kilometers away from his current cave base.

So Vicky did not worry about attracting strong attention.

Vicky already gave walkie-talkies to the women at the base.

Their range is 20 kilometers.

The frequency is set so it is not a problem for communication.

These things are stored in ark space so at the time of electromagnetic impulse storm these devices are not damaged.

Even if there is electromagnetic interference they can still be used to some extent.

When Rose is communicating with the tree things were not going well.

Well they came here to cut the tree not to grow it.

Will the tree accept it willingly letting them cut off its trunk?

So it is a big no and the things are not good.

Right when the expression on the face of Rose changed Vicky moved over immediately in front of her to guard her from the retaliation from the tree.

As soon as he came in front of a big root as big as the arm of an adult man came towards him attacking with its sharp edge.

Vicky swung the sword in his hand cutting the big root and immediately moved forward.

The three girls moved forward leaving Sekhmet with Rose for protection.

Well Rose can also fight but not on the same level as the Vicky, Natasha and Nubia.

Rose is also helping them using her communication capabilities with the trees to confuse the big tree.

Because of the combined effort the slaying of this tree monster became easy.

Vicky moved like a sharp sword cutting down the roots and vines in a chaotic path.

When he came near the trunk he immediately switched with a chainsaw that was running right now.

He kept a running chain saw in time stagnant space stopping its movements in a pause of time.

He used the chain saw to make a big cut on the trunk.

The tree strangely seeped reddish brown liquid flowing down from the cut.

It looked like blood.

But Vicky did not stop and continued to cut.

Accidentally a drop of this reddish brown liquid splashed on his hand making him stop and retreat few steps.

This is because the reddish brown liquid is like a strong acid.

Vicky immediately put the chain saw into the space and took out a bottle of water along with a base solution to rub on the area where the reddish brown acidic liquid splashed.

This immediately alerted the other two women and they also retreated.

Fortunately Vicky has made several big cuts on the tree trunk and there is another way to complete the cut.

He took out a high powered sniper rifle from his space and arranged it.

Chapter 144: search for the progenitor’s descendents

Fortunately Vicky has made several big cuts on the tree trunk and there is another way to complete the cut.

He took out a high powered sniper rifle from his space and arranged it.

Then he shot at the edges where he previously made the big cuts.

The high power sniper bullet is quite big and it can easily cause heavy damage to even concrete walls.

So the tree that is made of wood could not hold back.

Even though it has regenerative capabilities and nearly immortal, it is not possible to recover so quickly under the barrage of bullets.

Vicky shot 20 rounds in a row with 20 loaded sniper rifles from his ark space.

With that the tree is finally separated at the cut point.

With that separated Vicky the tree is heavily damaged.

Its quick movements have reduced very much.

Vicky immediately took out a grappling hook harpoon shooter from his ark space and shot at the separated part of the tree.

As soon as it was hooked he pulled the upper part of the tree with all of his strength and ran away wildly from there.

The other three women followed behind Vicky helping him clear the way to pull the big part of the tree.

The process is not smooth but the results are really good.

They came out of the range of the roots of the tree that are barely moving.

They tried to hold the upper part of the tree.

It can directly attach that part back and heal its wound.

But Vicky did not give it that chance and pulled the tree away from there.

After some time they put the tree into the ark space and returned back to the cave hideout.

While returning Vicky observed that the snow outside is quite strange.

It is as if the cold weather is going to end at any time.

The temperature in the surroundings is also strange.

Originally, based on the experience of his past life there should still be some time before the extreme cold weather stops.

But right now things are different.

Vicky believes that he and the other key holders might have done some things that have changed some of the causes changing the effects of the current situation.

After returning to the base he started processed large part of the tree slowly and brought in the big tree to dry on one side.

He could not use the tree as it is.

It still has corrosive liquid oozing from it.

Strangely after the liquid is in air contact for a while it changed into something solid like lacquer.

Vicky did not care about that and let it ooze out and let the tree dry.

He told them to rest for the night in their tents.

Each of them had their own sleeping arrangements.

Vicky, Radha and Sakura will be sleeping in their small room as usual.

Also food they did not eat from each other.

Even though they formed a team their trust did not reach the level of food given by the other party.

So they each had their own boundaries.

But the delicious smell from the cooking from Vicky still made them swallow their saliva few times.

Vicky looked at them but did not say anything for the time being.

In this kind of thing trust is the most important thing.

One has to give the food that is in need of food.

They have to at least ask for the food he cooked to give them.

He should not take the initiative to give them the food.

Instead they have to ask for the food.

…………..

The people in the city of hope started to search for the possible hide out of Vicky and other suspects.

But they would not dare to search at the location Vicky is staying currently.

It is the most dangerous place with a tier 5 monster present.

Also the surrounding area of this place is like a maze.

One side there is earth worm like creatures as big as bullet trains.

Another side there is a large horde of wild boars that are as big as cars and tanks.

Another side is a dense forest with strange trees and poisonous life forms.

Only an experienced person can navigate through these areas.

Right now Vicky is the only one other than his two women.

Even the four women that joined his team might not be able to navigate through this area easily.

Well Rose can still point out a direction using her ability to communicate with plants.

So they are safe for the time being.

Before they could find this location Vicky and his gang would be strong enough to enter into the apocalypse land.

………..

Next day in the morning Vicky started use some spars to make another formation in the shallow pool that he made for magical energy concentration.

He wanted to make sure that the pool can accommodate at least 4 people at a time before losing the magic energy concentration.

This way they can improve faster.

He has used the spar that he got to improve his critical strike level to 20 percent.

After that the cost is very high and he did not have enough capital to move further.

On the other hand he can use the remaining spar for this improvement.

So he discussed it with the other key holders and started to work.

Vicky can practice with Radha and Sakura at the same time.

The remaining 4 women can practice at the same time.

This division would let them strengthen faster instead of one person per day.

The formation cannot make the magic energy out of thin air.

It has to attract from the surrounding places.

For that what Vicky chose is actually the underground vine of water flow.

The water from the pool comes here from many areas and then passes through the shallow pool he made.

What he would do is to connect the 4 fundamental elements of the nature.

Chapter 145: high fluctuations in the temperature

The water from the pool comes here from many areas and then passes through the shallow pool he made.

What he would do is to connect the 4 fundamental elements of the nature.

That is earth, air, fire and water to the formation to attract the magical energy from the all these elements.

With that the magic energy in the surrounding environment would be attracted by a few kilometers making this place devoid of magical energy.

Unless there is an expert in formations he would not be able to discover this location easily.

Well there are no experts that can decipher tier 6 level formation that Vicky made just now.

The highest level of formation Vicky can make is only a tier 6 level formation.

Also not many types of formations are known by him.

Other than the magical energy concentration formation, he knows some defensive formations and concealment formations.

With them in place he can be safe but the consumption of the tier 6 defensive formation is very high.

He could not afford it with his current location.

So he gave up the strong things and made the magical energy gathering formation and concealment formation integrated into each other.

Within 24 hours the area 10 kilometers around his would lose its magical energy.

Or to be more precise, all the magical energy generated in this area would be constantly concentrated to the pool he made.

Since it is a continuous process no one can hinder it.

At the same time because of the concealment formation it is not possible to figure out that this is the place where the concentration of magic energy is present.

If there is any high level or peak level tier 5 monsters then there is a chance to feel the location of the concentration.

But the intimidation formation inside the concealment formation would produce the presence of a tier 6 monster making it impossible for them to attack.

Or they would be intimidated into fleeing this area.

All in all they are in a safe place.

……………..

The people at the four faced city searched for Vicky and other very much but they did not even get a single clue.

The soldiers that are previously close to Vicky were interrogated.

Well millions of spar and supplies are at stake.

Will they be interrogated peacefully?

Things are really ugly.

Even if Vicky was here he would not blink his eyes looking at the situation of those people that previously worked with him.

Well this is apocalypse they have to depend on themselves.

Even though he is the reason for their current situation none of them matters to him.

Also before leaving Vicky specifically told them that they should not speak about him or use his name.

He stated that his name or being acquainted with him might cause them severe problems.

The people that used Vicky’s name for their gains are the ones that got problems while the others that heed his warning are still fine.

So their situation is mostly, self inflicted than caused by Vicky.

………..

While creating the formation Vicky felt that the temperature in the surrounding area is abnormal again.

During the arrangement of formation that is related to the magic concentration, he would feel some of the current situation of the surrounding environment.

Because of the strong fluctuations of the temperature, Vicky thinks that there might be another natural disaster coming to them.

In their current situation anything is better than a hot sun or extreme heat.

Currently many places are filled with snow that is reaching tens of meters of height.

There are many places where the water under the ground is frozen over time.

If the sudden sun or extreme heat then all of this would melt in a few hours.

It is nothing more than unstable ground and strong flood.

Also there are many ancient viruses currently mixed in under the snow over time.

If the snow melts it would be the most dangerous situation.

Vicky originally planned to train here quickly and leave this place to the apocalypse land they earth connects to in a year of time before the end of the extreme winter.

But now things seem to be changing faster than he expected.

He has to immediately take the emergency steps for the coming disaster.

But his words might not be trusted so he has to prove this by making another person test the situation.

That should be Rose that can communicate with plants and Nubia that has a cat that can sense the changes in the environment much sharply than humans.

So he immediately called all the girls to discuss this issue.

After the preliminary check both Nubia and Rose accepted that what Vicky said is true.

The good thing is that the current cave they are living in is not at the ground level.

Also the land they are living in is also an elevated land.

Well it is the territory of a lion which is said to the king of the beasts.

So it is natural for its home to be in a high area with more natural advantage.

But they have to make some advanced preparations just in case something happens.

First is to dig some trenches down around the area of the mountain where the cave is located.

These trenches would collect the excess water that would appear after the snow is melted.

All of this would fill those trenches and the water level would be lower letting them move easily.

Vicky did not fear that those people from the city of hope would rush over here.

This place is dangerous even if the entire place is filled with water.

The most problematic things should be the flying monsters, and underground worms. Serpents, mutated fish monsters, insects that lost their nests……

All these things would be in the move right after water level changes.

Even with the intimidation of the lion they might come close to this place.
