Seeing the happy expressions of his father and Uncle, Arther was also a bit affected and joined them. His father passed him a cigarette.
While smoking cigarettes and enjoying the cool breeze Arther felt a little relaxed. When he looked at the distant woods and that they had to pass this forest he was left in deep thinking.
From the time he was reborn he was not in much stress and always felt that with the help of the system he was more than enough to lay a solid foundation in this apocalyptic world using the past life knowledge. This was also his capital for entering this forest. But after the battle with the vine monster and the rapidly growing forest he was slapped in the face.
'I have underestimated the apocalypse a bit too much. Even though I have the system and the MCV it is still in its development period. I need to take one step at a time.'
Jack sitting beside Arther noticed the stressed look on his son's face and patted his shoulders.
"Brat, don't think you have the powers and can order me. I am still the head of the family."
Hearing this, Arther looked at his father and saw the worry in his eyes. "I know that old man, and I don't want that place of yours.", he knew that even though his father didn't show it on his face he has always been worried about the family.
"Hahahaha," hearing this all of them started laughing.
After enjoying with them for some time Arther took his leave. He still had important work to be done.
When he came to the fourth floor again, the repair of the MCV was already finished. In the parking area, a brand new black MCV was parked quietly.
Seeing the MCV back to its full health level Arther felt a little relieved and then got to the further work. Firstly he stored the MCV and started transporting all the metals from the lower floor to the parking area.
He has already made up his mind to make use of most of these metals in the upgrade.
After completing the porter work he took out the MCV and sat in the driver's seat. Sitting in the driver's seat he opened the system panel. The panel this time was different than the previous one.
[Carrier Vehicle: MCV
Level: 1
Current Modules:
1)Energy Module.
2)Driving Module.
3)Weapon Module.
4)Storage Module.
5)Planting Module.
Living Area.
Energy: 17
(Modify)]
[Main Vessel
Name: Arther
Carbon-Based organism
Level:-99
Energy Source: None.]
Seeing the two status panel's Arther was a bit surprised. His level has increased from -100 to -99 due to certain reasons.
He didn't think much about the reasons behind it and thought it might be due to the start of the apocalypse.
With this thought, he opened the modify option for the MCV. When he clicked on it two options were presented manual and systematic.
Looking at the list of high-end modification such as nuclear engines, and spacecraft Arther didn't even dare to keep watching since the material requirements for these modifications was not what he can gather currently.
With a thought, the manual section was opened. It was nothing but an empty space with the 3D representation of the MCV in the middle.
Here Arther can make any changes to the MCV by providing the materials and energy.
He started with the chassis, this was the most damaged part of the MCV in the earlier battle. He directly increased the width from 3 meters to a full 7meters, the length was increased from 13.89 meters to 20meter. The materials used were high-strength steels, titanium alloy, and aluminum alloys. The number of tires was also increased from six to eight with doubles thickness. Increasing the total width to 10m.
After that, the main body was to be designed. The main body was made in a special way, he used a mixture of high strength and shock bearing materials to create a body frame such as lead, then used aluminum alloys to build three protective layers around the mainframe in the form of the honeycomb structures.
The main structure was then sandwiched between the outer armors and the inners wall and flooring. The outer armor design was left to the system by Arther, and the inner wall and flooring were made from metal, cardboard, and cotton padding layers.
He also increased the height of the body from four meters to six meters. The driver's cabin was moved to the highest floor on the right side with the driver's seat on the left side of the cabin. The area of the driver's cabin was increased automatically by the system and two seats were added behind the previous two seats.
Another new cabin was added right beside the driver's cabin.
After a little thought, Arther changed the energy module too. The main engine at the back was attached to the four tires in the front and the electric engine was moved to the rear.
This was done by Arther since he knew it will be difficult to get fuel in the future and considering the tonnage of the MCV, it will be a lot of fuel. So he has decided to take the path towards the electric vehicle.
After the basic layout of the MCV was completed. Arther clicked to fix the design, this was the convenient property of the system's manual modifications.
After this was done now was the time for upgrading the modules and adding the other facilities.
This time he used the system modification options.
Opening the modification options he started scrolling down. After searching for some time he found some useful ones,
[Shockproof hydraulic Chassis:
Increase the height of the chassis a bit, attached to the main body with a strong hydraulic system. There is an inbuilt cooling system for heat dispersion. Also increases the stability by 20%.]
[Bulletproof Heavy-duty tires:
The life of the tire can be increased by 60%, it can easily handle a load of more than 300tons. Reduce the fuel consumption by 30%. Suitable for all terrains.]
[Electric Battery(Level 3)
Increase the power charging to the consumption ratio, optimize the use of electricity according to the requirement. Automated safety system. Can store enough electricity to provide power to a small town for one month.]
[Reinforced Camouflaging Solar Lamination
Laminating the whole body of the MCV will provide it with one chance of camouflaging. The solar lamination has self-healing properties. Increase the solar energy absorption by 40%. It also has a certain function in retain the temperature of the vehicle.]
[Electric Nitro-engine
Increase the efficiency by 10%. Provided with a nitro booster, the nitro booster can be turned on for a small time limit of 3minutes using three times the normal electricity. It has a cooling time of 12hours.]
[Four stroke diesel engine cum generator
Can provide 2000 hp. It is a dual property module and can produce 2000kW of electricity per hour. Consumes 3litre per hour.]
[Dimensional Fuel Tank
Area: 5cubic meters
Can hold 5000litres of fuel. The fuel inside will not have any effect due to change in the surrounding. Has 100% temperature insulation.. Completely bullet proof.]
