Wasteland Conqueror

Chapter 29: Shopping Spree

Date Friday, August 10th, 2260

Approximately four hours later, I woke up well-rested and driven to continue making progress on my dream of one day conquering and controlling the planet in its entirety. Getting up whilst making sure not to disturb Alice, I quickly went into the bathroom and took care of my regular hygienic needs.

Once those were out of the way, I made my way over to my stockpile of loot that I'd been accumulating for a while and grabbed the parts I needed to turn a couple of dozen microfusion cells into mines.

I got everything I need, time to turn these cells into some very destructive devices.

Grinning, I set into motion and began rapidly assembling my makeshift mines.

...

After a couple of hours of work, I had two dozen simplistic yet very destructive microfusion cell mines.

They're not the best-looking mines I could've made, but they don't need to be. I just need them to keep the molemen from getting through the mine tunnel, which they'll be able to accomplish well enough.

My couple dozen mines needed to keep the vermin at bay ready to be deployed, I stood up and cleaned my hands before I downed a couple of protein drinks alongside an assortment of vitamins and snuck out of my room to go hit the gym downstairs. I spent the following hours working out and training, wearing out and abusing myself continuously to stimulate growth.

When it was eventually nearing the time everyone usually wakes up, I ended my grind session then and there and hit the showers. The moment I finished removing the large amount of sweat I received for my hard work, I hurriedly made my way back upstairs to my room and rejoined my dear little Alice in bed just in the nick of time.

"Morning, beautiful."

"Good morning, handsome." Alice replied sweetly.

The two of us played around for a bit before she went off into the bathroom to go through her morning routine and the moment she came back from it, I asked her. "You coming along with gramps and me on my shopping spree?"

"Of course, wherever you go, I'll be following alongside you." She said, latching onto me from the front whilst gazing up at me.

"What a dutiful fiance." I respond while stroking her luscious raven locks.

Getting a giggle from Alice, the two of us met up with my parents in the living room. After going through the usual routine events that take place every morning, they went off to work, leaving her and I behind to wait for my gramps to arrive. He eventually did, thus we loaded up into his vehicle and were on our way in the manufacturing district's direction.

We arrived in the district shortly and upon doing so, gramps brought us to one of the several locations I wanted to visit today to acquire the many things I needed. I spent the next several hours utilizing my trade skills, going from one place to another, buying the many pieces of machinery, tools, equipment, components, and materials I needed to begin my preparations. At the end of it all, I wracked up a sizable bill for gramps and had obtained just about everything I needed.

Minutes after doing so, I received a call from my Grandpa Henry. "Dom, the paperwork has been processed, and all the formalities have been handled. You can go to Mr. Birch's office to pick up the documents and the keys."

"Okay, thanks Grandpa, I'll head there now with gramps and Alice."

"Have fun, kid, and don't get into anything too dangerous in your new workshop."

"I know my limits, Grandpa. Thanks again for all the help."

"No problem, Dom. I'll check up on you later."
