Tap Tycoon System!

A human figure made out of wood from head to toe stands in front of Nathan, welcoming his arrival.

Looking at it with widened eyes, Nathan exclaimed, "What the hell is this!?"

Hearing Nathan's question, the wooden figure once again spoke, introducing itself, "Hello, Leader. I am Mook, a maintenance wood golem assigned to maintain the cleanliness of the Camp."

"Maintenance Wood Golem?" Nathan tilted his head curiously after hearing that, "This is the first time that I'm hearing of a maintenance golem."

As he said that, he scanned his surroundings and a flash of surprise in his eyes.

"Oooh~" he exclaimed, "This is a whole lot better now than before!"

Around him, the previously crumbling and dusty sight of the camp has now become easier to the eye.

It's not totally cleaned up, there is still the debris from the broken infrastructures, but at least it somehow became more comfortable after the dust was cleaned up.

Nathan turned his eyes back at Mook, the wood golem and said, "Did you do all this?"

Mook gave an affirmative answer by nodding its head, "Yes, Leader. I have initiated the basic clean up program to try and return the camp it's lost beauty."

Nathan nodded his head in satisfaction after hearing the words of Mook.

But then he paused and thought of something, looking at Mook, he suddenly asked suspiciously,

"By the way, why did I not see you when I first got here?"

Since Mook said that he was a maintenance golem, the camp would probably not have been in that kind of state when he found it.

Because of that, Nathan can't help but become a little suspicious

Especially now when even the Illuminati seems to have their eyes on him, Nathan is just wary of anyone or anything around.

Hearing Nathan's question, Mook said, "To answer the Leader's question, I have been on standby mode all this time on. According to rule #21, without a leader, every creature in the camp will enter standby mode, only to awaken after a new leader is appointed."

Nathan was almost not able to follow Mook's words and became dizzy after a while.

Shaking his head, he first digested the words that he heard.

After a while, he looked at Mook and said, "It's good then, are there more maintenance golem around here?"

Mook shook its head, "No, Leader. It is only me now, the last maintenance golem."

Frowning, Nathan thought for a while and said, "Hmm, is that so?"

He waved his hand saying, "Well, continue what you're doing for now. I'll be going to the control room first."

"Understood, Leader!" Mook saluted before running towards a broken building nearby and started carrying stone blocks.

Nathan watched it move for a while before leaving.

Heading towards the tower, Nathan took his time to observe the camp again.

"It really became clearer here and much easier to breathe." Nathan said, nodding in satisfaction.

Walking unhurriedly, soon he arrived at the tower.

He entered and without pause, headed upwards to the control room.

Since his physique has gotten a huge improvement from the last time he was here, Nathan was able to reach the controls faster and without even getting tired.

"Phew~! I did not realize that my power is already this ridiculous." He said, gauging his strength by clenching his fist, "I should probably take some time to properly gauge my strength so that I'll know what I can and can't do."

Taking note of that, Nathan entered the control room.

Approaching the control panel, Nathan looked at it for a while.

Propping his hand on his chin, Nathan spoke, "Hmm, now, where should I start in my search for the Naeco People."

Thinking for a while, Nathan started typing through the control panel and soon files appeared on the screen.

A file with the name [Threat #13] is at the top of all the files that showed in his search.

"Gotcha! I was right in thinking that there'll be a file for this one."

[Threat #13] is something that Nathan heard when the last leader of the camp spoke of it when he was watching the restored video playback last time.

From the way his predecessor talks about it seems like it is a very scary and powerful existence.

It was even the reason why the Naecos needed to hurriedly abandon the camp that time.

Sadly, the video was not fully restored and Nathan did not get where the Naeco people were heading towards.

"Hais… it was such bad luck for that video to not even be fully restored." Said Nathan while shaking his head.

Clicking on the [Threat #13] file, a screen packed with a bunch of information that it's almost dizzying just looking at it.

Squinting his eyes, Nathan read the information and can't help but start frowning.

"Hmm, this file is full of technical terms and experiment results, but I can still understand some of the info here." He said,

Threat #13 is the code for the alien species that lost its way in space and accidentally landed on this earth hundreds of years ago.

It was a friendly creature and was able to get along well with the ancient people, teaching them knowledge beyond their time, showing magic-like capabilities, and it almost became like a family to everyone living at that time.

And just like any good story there's also a villain in the story of this alien.

An evil organization that lurks in the Galaxy for the longest time that people don't even know the full extent of their history.

Illuminati!

When he read until that part, Nathan's jaw dropped in shock.

With an unbelieving look on his face, he said, "Illuminati… damn it. Why does it feel like they are everywhere I go these days!?"

Because of pressure and frustrations, even just hearing the name Illuminati is starting to become hard to listen for Nathan.

Shaking his head, he calmed down his emotions and continued reading.

As he read more, the frown on Nathan's face became heavier.
