《A Future Destroyed - A Post-Modern Fantasy LitRPG》Chapter 20 - Tunnel Service
Advertisement
Joriya smirked to himself as he staggered his way to the elevator, which surprisingly had rooftop access. "Clarence, could you summon an Avatar or send your fairy to the roof to assist in the design of the space station that will host the interplanetary tunnel and its single teleporter access pad which we will place on one of these hospitals helipad landing zones?" Joriya requested politely of the dungeon.
"Sorry, Joriya, but this one's all on you. Thank you for considering asking us for our opinions," Clarence's voice came from the elevator speaker. "If it is any consolation, I think you are doing what you truly believe to be in the best interest of humanity."
Great, thanks for the vote for self-confidence, man, but I was hoping for actual support, Joriya thought as he just nodded at the camera. After the elevator reached the roof, he stepped out and looked around. There were four different helipads, anointing the four cardinal directions on the compass. He went to the eastern helipad and sat down.
*DING*
Shop access granted to 'Safe Zone' Hillsborough Horror Hospital Helipad Entrance.
Joriya turned to the camera pointed at the Helipad and gave it a thumbs up, before he pulled out a notepad and started doing calculations. He knew what he wanted, but he wasn't sure how to fully describe it, and if he missed a single thing, then it wouldn't be included. After an hour, he nodded.
"Shop, I would like to purchase the following under my Free Purchase, if I may?"
*DING*
Another major purchase using an omitted limit? Should the System have kept you as Cheater instead of Frugal?
"Perhaps that is so, but as a businessman and programmer, I want to get the most out of any freebies," Joriya replied.

*DING*
Understood. Please proceed with describing your purchase.
"I want a two hundred mile diameter space station, made of adamantium, at Legrange 2, with full amenities and life support, powered by a series of fusion reactors all connected and reporting to a City Core. I want a Galactic Express Tunnel under the control of Gruu'gus placed in the space station, and a single teleporter connecting this helipad and the station. In the interior of the station, I want a training zone for space marines, including three instanced dungeon cores, one set to Noob, one set to Adventurer, and one set to Marine difficulty. Have the three dungeon cores subjected to commands from the City Core in charge of the full space station.
"For defense, I want multi-layered shields, rail guns, ion cannons, and a squadron of fighters. I want three screening corvets and a destroyer. For onboard defense, I would like a fully stocked armory ready for a full battalion of highly trained space marines, including power armor and war mechs. I'd also like a set of mining ships for preparing for the mining of asteroids."

News Report
"Hello folks, my name is Robert Drache, and this is the Galactic News! In today's news, Planet Earth has surprisingly joined the rest of the Galaxy, as everyone has received news of this tremendous achievement from the System. To think, someone would waste their personal potential to increase the standing of their World, and they don't fall under the flag of the Hilnarian Empire. Immediately after the creation of the Tunnel, the Navy of Gruu'gus sent their 1st, 8th, and 17th Fleets to protect the currently backwater planet.
The Emperor of Hilnaria has issued a statement that demands the insult to his honor and has issued a three adamantium coin bounty on whoever serves Gruu'gus! Gruu'gus has in fact placed a one mythril piece bounty on all members of the Hilnarian Council, their Spies, and agents. It looks like we will likely see a new chapter of Galactic War!"

The Beta Test
Our nameless narrator participates in a beta test for an early VRMMO game Meridian 60. That's not the real name but it captures the spirit of the adventure given the chronological and contextual era of the game. His character is unique and special but purely for mundane reasons and not because of any inherent or social significance. The first chapter which is mandatory to submit a story on RR serves as a bit of a prologue with some exposition, although I limited that to a reasonble level. I plan to begin releasing additional chapters starting Thursday, to align with the 48 hour submission approval process and also because I have something to do Wednesday. I haven't written anything but the summary and first chapter, nor have I plotted anything out. This is because my plan is to release roughly 34000 words a day, 10 chapters of ~12.5 pages each, for 3 days at which point the story will be complete. I'd have liked to plan for more but handling the interface tables and so forth needed for a data heavy litrpg slows down the writing process. 100k words is a bit short, a standard pre epic fantasy 300 page spec fic novel, but this is mostly a writing exercise and I am considering a longer project if I can maintain the pace. Probably do a different concept, maybe a dungeon core, over 5 days, since a 500 page novel is more common these days. Slight subversion of VRMMO stories Stat heavy/crunchy No paying your bills by gaming No out of game conspiracies No angst, interpersonal drama, or damsels/dudes in distress Schedule is 30000 words a day excepting the first chapter, a limitation of RRs fiction submission system Fantasy, high magic, male lead, no party, guild, or harem No gore, some profanity, no sexual content, and no current plans for anything traumatic
