Ultimate Gamer System: Factory Must Grow!

Chapter 83 [///error///]

Quite likely for the very first time since his exile, Theo woke up... perfectly well-rested, calm, and relaxed.

With just enough time left before the invasion, he took his sweet time slowly snacking on the berry mush before opting for the luxurious option of drinking three whole berries by taking merely one gulp of the angelic juice from each.

Then, as the sun started to rise, as signified by the changing shadows cast by the tops of the trees, Theo made two rounds around his entire ring of defense.

Every connection, be it of a belt or a power line, was checked. Every gun turret confirmed green, the switchboard in a simple concrete bunker-tower allowed Theo to control each of the four sectors of his moat, switching the electricity at will.

Before fully moving over to the control tower that Theo erected right next to his mansion, he still made sure to do the very last thing that he could test only now when the invasion timer was about to run out anyway.

And with just five minutes left before the attack, it no longer mattered whether or not the sound of the guns going off would attract an attack.

"Now, let's see..." Merely by touching the side of the gun turret, Theo could feel his vision splitting between what was before his eyes and a different, slightly elevated position overlooking just a narrow chunk of the outer land of Theo's claim.

And quite noticeably, this elevated point of view Theo now had allowed him to reach even beyond the narrow line of the stone wall off in the distance.

'Now that I think about it, it's really a blessing I can modify the terrain around,' Theo thought as he stared off into the horizon. 'Without it, I would have to move all my factories out into the open. And by now, they could easily take a fourth of the space within my compound!'

Theo shook his head... only to realize that the point of his additional vision moved with the shakes of his physical head, allowing him to rather intuitively move the center point of the added PoV focus.

And that could only mean one thing.

'So I can aim them by myself after all,' Theo grinned to his own thoughts, only to then just... will for the gun to shoot.

Bang!

The first round... couldn't be any more impressive.

With a loud bang, the whole gun turret shook... or rather, it appeared to when it knocked off all the dust that lay down on its concrete surface.

Still... rather than a gun, this was a freaking artillery!

Even if only a kinetic one.

There was no smoke from the shot, neither by the barrel of the entrenched gun nor in the area it struck.

Sure, the impact was heavy enough to cut through several trees while knocking off a few more, but the cloud that rose above it was that of dust and dirt rather than smoke and soot born in an explosion.

'I guess that explains the missing gunpowder in the recipe,' Theo thought, taking note of the power of the gun.

Theo couldn't help but relax.

'Any moment now, huh?' Theo thought, breathing out in a bid to control his heart through a disciplined breathing routine.

[The Challenging Party Crossed the border of the claim!]

The system screamed out, only for a narrow square of Theo's vision to explode with light that then quickly coalesced back down into a screen with what looked like a live feed from some sort of magical CCTV.

And on it, a bunch of people were now jumping down from the edge of Theo's stone wall, their faces as full of vigilance as their hands were full of weapons.
