《Micro-Management: Survival Base》The Light in Darkness
Advertisement
Duncan awoke from his daze, his body ached from staying in a fetal position for to long. Shaking his head Duncan looked toward the phone that he threw aside and saw the gains from the train tunnel.
He was ecstatic about the stove and oven as well as a dining car. He ordered for the males to move the cars to make a campsite, it was basically the stone wall, with the train cars forming a barrier on each side, in between each train car was a gap that people could enter and exit.
Duncan looked toward the breeding grounds to find the women groaning as the time for giving birth was drawing near, a few of the eggs were also going to hatch soon, Dragonfly hatchlings were nymphs that required water so he had to transport them soon or risk them dying out early. He also needed to find them meat.
The engine was moved to the workshop and it was helpful in smelting new weapons. No longer the days of modified railroad tracks, now it was actual swords, spears and armor.
Duncan was beginning to feel relieved, no more losses, just need to rebuild his den and experience no more losses.
Duncan turned his phone off and went to sleep, hoping for the best the next day.
Rosa looked at the new dragonfly eggs and started to calculate the results
Spiked War Dragonfly x Human : 7% fertility rate: Crossbreeding: Spiked War Humans 2%/Sentient Dragonfly: 3%.
Spiked War Dragonfly x Lesser Acid Mantis: 40% Fertility Rate: Spiked War Mantis 25%/ War Toxin Dragonfly 30%/ Imperial Dragon-Mantis 0.5%/ Blade Dragonfly 10%/ Scythe Wing Dragonfly 14%/ Sky Reaper Mantis: 0.5%.
Spiked War Dragonfly x Sahuagin: 13% Fertility Rate: Water War Dragonfly 15%/ War Sahuagin 25%.
Spiked War Dragonfly x Lesser Acid Centipede: 40% Fertility rate: War Centipede 13%/ Spiky Armored Centipede 23%/ Acidic Dragonfly 30%/ Venomous Dragonfly 40%. Armored War Dragonfly 15%.
.
Andre , the scientist boy, had gathered some materials and tried to research how to transform some of the substances into usable objects. The addition of the oven and microwave could boost research. but Andre had to reserve one of them for food use so he chose the microwave as his equipment.
Mark was busy rewiring the room so that the working engine would help power the room and help with both incubation and heating.

Mark after finishing with it he was passing by the CPU stations and saw Lincoln computing a defense network that could prevent the dragonflies from entering. The problem of the dragonflies was that they were always trying to strip away the wall that seperated them, now that they had a working engine he could make a heat net, it would be able to keep the dragonflies away but the heat could also make the Den uncomfortable with everyone sweating.
Mark decided to start to build it, he found suitable wiring from the train cars as they would not need the wires anymore, He started to work on it.
Duncan woke up to find the women growning and ready to give birth, a few of the eggs were hatching as well,
Duncan grew excited about the growth in population, he also noticed the defense network that Mark was building with the help of Lincoln. Duncan grew hopeful.
The women were lying in the breeding room and the first girl, Tina groaned, she was yelling out as the other girls stayed by her side. The Sahuagin female had moved her to the pool of water to help the baby come out more easily. It took a full day for the baby to come out and it was a boy.
Congratulations Tina Alamontie gave birth to a baby boy, he is of good build and strong vitality
[Traits] Physically Durable, Lust Orientated, Careful, Klutz
Growth Potential: 45%
A strong baby, he is careful and durable but since he is a klutz he won't be able to handle weaponry that well. He is also lust orientated so charm traps will be able to undermine him.
Mother: Tina Alamontie
Father: Connor Loveheart
After the birth of the child the mother decided to name him Ryan, Tina looked at the child with love and cuddle with the crying baby and went to nurse him, People came to move her into one of the cars and help make her comfortable, the rest just waited for more events to happen.
The next births were the eggs, this time around 3 centipede eggs hatched, 2 regular Lesser Acid Centipedes and 1 Aquatic Centipede. Alongside them were 2 Dragonfly eggs both of them were Spiked War Dragonflies.
The other girls were not ready to give birth and Duncan was relieved that his forces grew.

He ordered for a Loveheart to start training everyone for combat, with the exception of the females since they needed their rest.
He also wanted to scout out the dark area where Derek was taken so he had Sandra send the small Mantis and Centipede, their size would not draw attention so they were perfect for scouting.
He also needed to go find a way to get out of the den so that his people could hunt not only for food, but for points that he could spend. With the dragonflies monitoring him 24/7 it was nearly impossible to leave the den to do anything useful.
Thankfully with Mark working on the defense network he might be able to slip people in and out of the wall.
Duncan only had 17 points left, a single point was worth a few in-game days of food and with the amount of time with the amount of people inside that were trapped, it was draining fast.
He was thankful for the refilling pool of fresh and salt water, he also wanted to upgrade the CPU so that he could draw out more information of both Lincoln and Rosa, but he also needed fuel to keep the computers running or else the two AI could be lost forever. With the addition of the engine he extended his limited fuel from a couple of months to about a year or two with the addition of the coal car. Of course they would not last long if there was no one to refill the engine/ power centers.
After Derek was taken he had barricaded up the door and the glowing beast was still trying to get in, Duncan remembered how the beast flashed a light when someone was looking at it.
"Manny, I order you to let the glowing beast in, the rest shall prepare any reflective surface they can find, when the beast comes in, everyone hide behind the reflective surface and Manny shall stare at the beast. The light was intense enough to stun a person, can it stun the beast as well?.
Derek's POV:
I awoke in a cocoon, It was dark outside and I struggled to get out, The cocoon was tough, my fingers couldn't penetrate the tough string and I gave up after a while. Eventually I checked my person and discovered I had my spear on me, I tried to move it without cutting myself and moved it to make indents in the cocoon and eventually cut it.
I gasped for air as I got out, the cocoon was suffocating me. I looked around to find myself in a den, surrounding me were millions of cocoons, I cut open one of them and out popped out a half changed corpse, there was legs protruding from the back of the corpse and mandibles were coming out of the face of the once pretty lady.
I looked at it with disgust and tried to look for newer cocoons, It was just a maze of webbings and everything was dark. I wandered everything was interesting old books, old machines, weapons here and there, most of them corroded, even the corpses of people and people-hybrids.
Wandering and gathering, I didn't want to take to much but I begin to notice that the webbing was newer, more sticky as well. I tried to avoid getting my spear caught by the webs because if webs were on it, then the sharp side of the blade might become a blunt blade as the webs could become a cushion against it.
I heard a scream and I turned sharply to the noise, I saw a light in all the darkness, and the screaming grew louder

Slave 53: The Phoenix
Azgarth is a violent Warlord from a planet where everyone feared him, a man that never lost a battle whether it be from his enemies surrendering or dying. After entering a wormhole, this once infamous man had his memory completely wiped. He was enslaved under the name 53. The great comet arrived one day and gave 53 an extremely rare animal aspect, the Phoenix. Having a rare animal aspect puts people on the fast track to power in this world. Will 53 show the same brutality as his former self? Author: So there will probably be a lot of changes when I start hashing out the whole classes and what not. I'm not planning on this to have statuses or anything like that, but when people 'lvl up' is probably going to be something like ascending 1, 2, 3, etc. With each ascension they are many times stronger, for example, someone who hasn't ascend at all would be at 0, but someone with a 1 would be about 5x stronger than someone who is 0 and so on. It would take a long time to reach each one. With the red colored marks which represents fire, I have a couple ideas with what I want to do, in a way a battle royale, as this continent they are on isn't very large, but all four elements are on it (or more, I might add light, dark, and some others) but all the humans have red, while a different alien race has blue (water), brown (earth), and grey (Air). The color of the mark they have influences how they feel about each other, a example of that would be if a red saw a brown, then they would naturally feel a disgust about each other, and if they killed someone from a different color they would gain way more life essence which is needed to ascend than they would killing someone from their same color. The last thing, I'm not too sure about the main character yet, as I like the whole idea of a memory wipe, I almost think it'd be more entertaining to have the guy slowly regain all his memory, then just becoming his normal self again. If that's the case I'll have to change the title of book. The original idea was this guy would keep the name 53, and his prior self named Azgarth is sharing his body, as in he can talk to him and give him advice on things since he doesn't want him to die since he is sorta like a split personality sharing the same body. Looking at it now, idk if I want this guy to be named 53 forever. Warning: A lot of dark content in the book, especially in the flashbacks.
