Wasteland Conqueror

Chapter 18: Loot Goblin

That about covers my relationships. I have other ones besides the ones I've mentioned, but nothing of any real note at this point. Onto the next bit of progress we have loot, and in the last couple of years I've managed to accumulate a good bit of it, especially the materials and resources I need to begin getting some gear made.

What I've managed to get my hands on so far is, I've "Borrowed" 200 microfusion cells that I can either use for power, such as using them as ammo for energy weapons, or I can modify the cells into makeshift plasma grenades at a moment's notice if the need arises.

Though I highly doubt there ever will be a need to, at least inside the undercity since I've yet to encounter a single issue that would require that kind of drastic action slash firepower. But other than those two mentioned uses, I could also modify them into fusion breeder cells.

Doing that would then provide me with a theoretical, limitless power source. To accomplish that, I'm going to need to produce a couple pieces of equipment to make that happen. Too bad the undercity lacks the ones I'm specifically looking for.

Aside from the cells I gained, I've also managed to scrounge up a decent amount of scrap metal, electronics, different adhesives, and numerous other miscellaneous materials and components. All of which I have safely stored away in my room inside the many locked lockers and trunks I've gotten over the years. Though most of them have been acquired in the last two years.

With the many, many different things I have hoarded, all I have to do now is to find some laser weapon parts and I'll be able to cobble together a halfway decent laser weapon. Looks like I'll have to make a trip to the used market, I could maybe come across some parts at the recycling facility.

However, it'll be much easier to get the parts I need from the used market, at least I think so. If I can't find them there, the alternative is to just wait until I get a large enough space for myself that I can use to start making and manufacturing the shit I'm going to require.

Hmm... on second thought, I have to do that anyway so might as well direct my energy and focus into that instead of trying to hunt down parts when I can simply just produce them on my own, yeah I'll go with that plan instead.

Together with the bits and bobs I collected, I turned a small sum of the scrap metal into lockpicks which I've been using to raid the undercity's recycling plant for even more stuff. And as a result of said raiding, my lockpicking skill has increased a decent bit as well.

Alright, that about does it for the loot I collected and the majority of my progress in recent years... Since I'm covering everything, I'll go over my near future plans too. So over these last five years, with my intense accumulation of knowledge, I'm now at the point where I actually need to start preparing the items for the wasteland.

Therefore, I have to begin manufacturing and producing the ammo, armor, chemicals, equipment, medicine, weapons and the other numerous items I'll require for my plans of taking over Cyberdynamics Robotics Facility and raiding Fort Kern, that I decided to take control of as well instead of just cleaning it of its loot and going on my way. Plus, there is the research I need to complete too, so much stuff to do, so little time, haa...

Now the plan I have in mind for how I'm going to go about starting my mass manufacturing operation, I'm going to first get my parents and my grandparents together. Once I have them in one place, I'm going to have a talk with them to see if they can help me out with getting a space large enough for what I want to get done, preferably one located in between the mining and manufacturing districts.

If I can get a warehouse in between those two districts, it would allow me to go into the undercity mines to gather resources at a much faster speed as compared to a location near my home which is located on just about the opposite side of the undercity from the mines.
