Chapter 6
The sound of banging hammer and welding torch is almost constant around the camp as a month has passed since the attack happened and the camp has been in a constant process of rebuilding and expansion. Almost no traces could be seen from the original ramshackle shanty town made out of junk and in its place a functional community.
Bio waste is put into a recycling system and turned into fertilizer feeding the plant in the hydroponic greenhouse lit with a system of sun lamps.
The crops are GMO that is fast growing and high in yield; they are also aided by magic to speed along their growth.
A chicken coop is also built to provide meat and eggs, which also have their growth accelerated.
Electricity and water that the community used is obtained by tapping into the hive city power grid and water pipe, although the water still needs to be run through an extra filtration and purification system before it can be used.
For those who are not tasked with construction, their duty is to train under Mikhail.
...
The camp has grown a lot after just one month; we have been actively going out and taking in more people into our rank, with me personally vetting each newcomer so that no rotten apple would slip their way into our rank.
I have been training them for 3 weeks, and they have made some major progress since then.
After I heal their body back to full health and have good and nutritious food in their system to recover, most of the survivors end up actually healthier and stronger than the average person back on 21st century earth.
I am putting them through a tone down version of Kenichi training, while I myself is training in a more extreme version of it after I unlock that world item from the Gacha.
The second Gacha roll came up with nothing usable and only unlocked 3 noteworthy worlds which are the MCU, Kenichi and Overwatch.
The Gacha doubles its previous price with every draw, so I can't just spam it constantly to unlock new worlds and new things to buy.
With my teaching skill leveling up more and more, the survivors have been progressing nicely, with many of them reaching the physical capability of professional athletes. All they lack now is just combat experience. Now I am just building a solid foundation until I can truly train them in magic and martial art.
"Take 10 more laps and that should be it for the day. I'm heading out."
"Sir yes sir."
I also did some reconnaissance on my own, going up to both the lower and even upper hive of multiple hive cities to gather for more information, and what I found out was both good and bad.
The good news is that the entire star system is surrounded by a Warp storm which has cut it off entirely from the Imperium for more than 30 years already, so for the foreseeable future the Imperium will not be a threat that I need to worry about.
The bad news is that I found a fuck ton of 4th generation Genestealer hybrids; some hives have it better while some have it worse. In the worst hive, the one which I suspect to be where the patriarch is and ground zero where the infection started.
In that hive one in every ten hivers is either a Genestealer hybrid or an infected and that number is still rising where the entire block is nothing but hybrid and infected.
Not even the noble living in the spire are safe from infection in that hive, and they hold a lot of power to do as they please.
The reason why they haven't staged their Coup d'état is a total mystery.
The hive I am in is actually the one with the least Genestealer because it was the farthest one, but still it still has a one in one thousand rate of hybrid or infection.
I am currently in the process of purging all the Genestealer and curing all infected in the hive in another month or two. I think I will bring the survivor with me on these purges, but for now I am going solo.
Seeing a suspicious hunch figure in the distant drapes in a baggy dark cloak, I decided to investigate.
"Observe"
[Genestealer kelemorph]
[LVL: 25]
"Bingo"
Finding a target I trail behind it in it would lead me to their gathering place where I can take out a large number of them at one.
...
*hah* *hah* *hah*
"Run, keep moving. Hurry, we are almost there."
*Bang* *bang* *bang*
*CLANK*
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH."
A group of people could be seen running through a dark alleyway and the look on their faces is one of absolute dread. Their defender fires their autogun and las rifle in a futile attempt to slay the thing that is hunting them, it is all in vain as one by one their agonizing dead cry can be heard ringing out.
And eventually the noise of gunfire is gone completely leaving only the sound of their pounding heartbeat and heavy breathing their sense of terror only increasing as with each twist and turn they can hear the sound of clanking chain and the scream of their friend and family as they are drag away by the green glowing hook and chain of the monster in human form until less than a handful remain.
"Let us in ! Let us in !"
Getting to the gate where the rest of their cult is, the man bangs on the gate with his 3 arms calling out for it to open and slowly the thick metal gate lifted.
Yet it wasn't fast enough as the hook and chain keep coming until only one remain
Not waiting for the gate to lift completely, the Kelemorph quickly crawled through the opening as on the other side a guard help him on his foot again.
"What happened, brother ?"
The guards ask him in confusion what in the world can reduce their proud hero to such a state.
"There is no time to close the gate qui" *zip*
Before he could finish, the green glowing hook and chain wrap tightly around his body.
"NO NO NO AAAAAAHHHGGGGGG."
With a yank, his body flew backward, disappearing into the distant darkness where the green light glowed.
As the guard lay eye on the figure coming forward from the darkness carrying the green hook and chain attaching to a lantern which glow in the same eerie color;
They are immediately struck with a sense of sheer dread and absolute horror.
They ordered for the gate to be dropped, and it quickly did, those who were present still look at one another in shock as more and more guards came to see what the commotion was about.
Suddenly everything shook like a hive quake had just begun, and a large hole had been punched through the Rockcrete and reinforced steel gate and a pair of hands reached out tearing the hole into an entrance and from it a figure came forth his voice ring out with power that struck terror to the very soul.
"I suggest you all lay down and spill everything you know. Otherwise, I will be ripping it from your soul and the process will be quite agonizing."
The cultist flinch terror still gripping their mind, but they didn't move an inch then a las round was fired toward the figure, and it was soon joined by all the cultists present vaporizing the area into a crater of molten rock and smog.
But before they had a chance to relax, the voice rang out once again as the smoke cleared and the figure revealed himself to be unharmed.
"Fine, the hard way it is, then."
