Destiny stared at the holographic notification floating before him.
After six hours of construction, his first military base was finally complete.
He stood on a small hill overlooking the abandoned industrial compound. The old warehouses had been transformed into military buildings, concrete walls surrounded the compound, and several watchtowers stood at the corners.
Daniel stood beside him, staring at the newly constructed base.
"Bro, you actually did it."
Destiny smiled.
"This is only the beginning."
They walked toward the entrance, where several military vehicles were parked. The system had even constructed a small command center equipped with a holographic map and communication equipment.
As Destiny entered the building, another notification appeared.
[DING!]
[PLEASE SELECT A NAME FOR YOUR MILITARY BASE.]
Destiny thought for a moment.
"Name it Wolf Fortress."
[DING!]
[BASE NAME CONFIRMED.]
[WOLF FORTRESS ESTABLISHED.]

Destiny nodded.
He needed three more soldiers to complete the mission.
Fortunately, the base had already attracted several survivors from nearby communities.
When Destiny reached the training ground, he discovered more than twenty people waiting near the entrance.
A tall man stepped forward.
"Are you Lieutenant Destiny?"
"Yes. Who are you?"
"My name is Samuel. I used to be a police officer before the invasion. I've heard about your squad and would like to join."

[ELIGIBLE RECRUIT DETECTED.]

Destiny extended his hand.
"Welcome to Wolf Fortress."
[DING!]
[RECRUITMENT SUCCESSFUL!]
[PRIVATE SAMUEL HAS JOINED THE HOST'S MILITARY UNIT.]
A second volunteer stepped forward.
"My name is David. I awakened an ability that allows me to manipulate earth."
Destiny's eyes widened.
An earth manipulator would be extremely useful for building defenses.
[DING!]
[AWAKENED RECRUIT DETECTED.]
[NAME: DAVID.]
[ABILITY: EARTH MANIPULATION.]
[COMBAT POTENTIAL: HIGH.]
[RECRUITMENT SUCCESSFUL!]

Finally, a young man wearing a pair of broken glasses approached.
"I'm Isaac. I studied computer engineering at university. I can repair computers and work with communication systems."
Destiny smiled.
"That's exactly the kind of specialist we need."
[DING!]
[RECRUITMENT SUCCESSFUL!]

[CURRENT SOLDIERS: 10.]
[MISSION OBJECTIVE COMPLETED!]
[REWARD: 3,000 MILITARY POINTS.]

Destiny smiled as he looked at his newly assembled soldiers.
For the first time, he had ten people officially under his command.
"Everyone, welcome to Wolf Fortress. From today onward, we are not merely survivors. We are soldiers."
The recruits stood straight.
"YES, COMMANDER!"
[DING!]
[NEW FUNCTION UNLOCKED: MILITARY RANK PROMOTION.]

[CURRENT PROGRESS: 2/3 MISSIONS.]
Destiny nodded.
One more mission.
Then he would be promoted.
However, as he was examining the notification, Naomi suddenly rushed toward him.
"Commander!"
Destiny turned.
"What happened?"
Naomi looked frightened.
"I detected a large group of monsters moving toward the northern road."
Destiny's expression changed.
"How many?"
"More than fifty. And something is leading them."
Destiny looked toward the northern watchtower.
The invasion was far from over.
"Sound the alarm. Everyone, prepare for combat!"
[DING!]
[NEW MISSION ACTIVATED.]
[MISSION: PROTECT WOLF FORTRESS.]
[THREAT: UNKNOWN.]
Destiny slowly raised his head.
"Let's see what the monsters have planned for us."
