Chapter 1378: Chapter 1378: The President’s Phone Can’t Get Through (Long Chapter Asking for Monthly Tickets)

[34 years old: You spent this New Year outside the Intensive Care Unit, waiting. You also discovered what truly happened. A terrifying exotic beast awoke from the depths of the grand canyon in the wastelands, sweeping across the entire wasteland and vanished towards the east.

Nobody saw the true appearance of this beast; everyone who laid eyes on it died. However, someone inside the city, using a telescope, seemed to have seen a giant illusion resembling a lizard, which was internally referred to by the Kewort Group as the ’Dark Lizard.’

Your wife was handling matters in the city and had just left when she encountered the passing Dark Lizard. Thanks to her Transcendent status, she didn’t die but was severely injured. Fortunately, she was found by a passing Kewort Group mercenary corps, whose executive knew you both and rescued your wife.

The costs for the Intensive Care Unit were incredibly expensive, yet you insistently asked the doctor to continue the treatment, even though they began advising you to give up.

The doctor told you that even if she was saved, she wouldn’t live beyond three months.

Fate seemed to still favor you. Before all your assets were depleted, your wife regained consciousness, although her health was not good, only allowing her to perform simple activities.

You brought your wife back to the place you were temporarily residing, a small room rented for you by that Kewort Group executive friend.]

[35 years old: Everything from your earlier years feels like a dream.

You feel like an ant under a wheel, unknowingly crushed by it.

You can’t return to the wastelands. The twisted blood and flesh have birthed countless distorted monsters across the vast wasteland, which is no longer the homeland you once knew. Only the Kewort Group’s mercenary corps and the City Defense Army go in and out of the city, clearing dangers near the city.

But you don’t have permission to reside in the city, and the city doesn’t welcome you.

Denno City seems to have undergone a significant personnel change, and the people you knew become fewer and fewer.

Your wife needs continuous medication to sustain herself, but your savings are almost depleted.

You received a termination letter from the Kewort Group; with no wasteland, you are of no use.

As your house’s lease was about to expire, you received the news that your executive friend had suddenly died of a heart attack at a gathering.

You’ve never heard of this friend having heart issues before, and his family is not from Denno City. The group only managed to arrange a simple and hasty funeral for him.

You were among the few who mourned him. People came and went under the sun, but it feels like the city holds no familiar faces for you anymore.

You returned home, where your wife sat in a wheelchair and prepared a sandwich for you. She smiled and gave you a hug with her once strong and slender arms, reminding you to stay alive no matter what.

You took a risk and left the city, returning to the site of your former tribe, only to find a wasteland populated with twisted creatures.

You cleared the area nearby and found your first hunting rifle in the ruins of your old house, along with remnants of your father’s belongings.

You built a new grave beside your mother’s grave, engraving your father’s name on it.

Beside these graves, you built more, engraving the name of the Leader and everyone whose names you and your wife still remember.

Upon returning to Denno City, you leveraged all your connections to finally secure two airship tickets and identity permits. You left Denno City for Vitland.

Though hopeful for little, you once more sought out the deserted scavenger district, hoping for shelter. It was the only place in Vitland not requiring citizen status.

Your wife needed adequate medical conditions to sustain herself, forcing you to live in the city.

The Scavenger Leader, a lady named Heish, welcomed you.

She understood your situation and prepared a small house for you near the scavenger district.

You used your Transcendent status to start taking missions for payment, to secure medicine for your wife.

Your income wasn’t low, yet it barely covered your wife’s treatment. Without Federation status, you couldn’t purchase medical insurance, but even with status, no insurance would cover your wife.

The exorbitant medical fees almost suffocating you.]

[36 years old: The lawyer contacted you again, providing the earnings for the past two years.

He hoped you could continue camel farming, supplying the special wool.

After hearing about your troubles, he reduced wool shipments, further inflating the price. However, after years of depletion, his stock is now low.

Even though you wish to resume camel farming, breeding camels that produce such wool requires vast amounts of forage found only in the wastelands. These were once abundant, but now the wasteland has become a monster’s paradise.

The lawyer’s profit-sharing alleviated your burden, yet your wife’s condition was barely sustainable.

She still prepared sandwiches for you daily, smiling as she awaited your return.

But her once muscular arms and legs have become emaciated.

She couldn’t survive the winter.

You asked Heish to purchase a burial plot for her in Vitland, where you can see the wasteland in the east, which was once your homeland.

The doctor said she could only live for three months, but the Divine Being granted you more time.

You spent a long time at home, like a walking corpse, and as winter drew to a close, you noticed a video online.

The video featured someone wearing a peculiar black-and-white smiley face mask, calling himself ’K,’ protesting against matters seemingly unrelated to you.

Yet this speech ignited a flame within your heart.

In the following weeks, you learned about Christos’ successful election and the veteran senator’s re-election as President.

The world seemed to undergo a change, yet it wasn’t the change you had imagined.]

[37 years old: You bid farewell to Heish and left Vitland, heading east, returning to the wasteland where you once lived.

You wanted to uncover what truly happened back then.

This vast land maintained its former desolation, still roamed by various monsters, but fewer than two years ago.

In the stunning multi-colored canyons, new plants struggle to grow through the rocks.

You returned to the wasteland of yore, finding solitude where only a few Kewort Group caravans and mercenary corps cleaned nearby monsters.

You journeyed for several days before spotting a modest camp far from the city, where Wilderness Wanderers, whom you barely recognized, lived.

These Wilderness Wanderers came from other places; they couldn’t survive in the wild and had to come to this perilous place to make a living.

You killed a monster that attacked the camp, gaining the trust of these wanderers.

They told you that ahead is the Slorx Grand Canyon, and there are no roads further on.

You know this canyon; you previously sent people to explore the terrain near it for the Kewort Group.

The Slorx Grand Canyon is the largest canyon in the entire Federation, stretching from one end of the sky to the other, with no horizon in sight.

From the information you’ve gathered, the canyon is thousands of meters deep and nearly three hundred kilometers wide at its broadest point. This barren polluted area ends here; even the terrifying Dark Lizard couldn’t cross this canyon.

You start to change direction, heading east, tracing the direction the Dark Lizard left.

After leaving the Grand Canyon for hundreds of kilometers, you finally encounter the first sign of human habitation, one of the Kewort Group’s mines.

Kewort Group has many mines in the north of Denno City; you encountered one of the few mines in the south.

This mine has been developed for many years but had to stop due to the Dark Lizard. Last year, the pollution lessened significantly, and they resumed operation. However, the pollution level is still unsuitable for ordinary people to live and work.

The mining manager has changed; seeing your power, he wanted to recruit you for security. You inquired about an old friend of yours, but this manager knew nothing. You bid him farewell and continued east.

The Dark Lizard’s tracks only reached the central mountains of the Federation, leaving no trace after that, but you heard rumors of the Dawn City Wilderness Wanderer Act among the wanderers here. After fruitlessly searching for the Dark Lizard, you decided to head to Dawn City to seek a formal Federation identity.

You met Penny and also saw the statue of the wanderer leader named Ronald, to whom you offered a bouquet. For a long period in your life, you also hoped to become an excellent leader like him.

You obtained a temporary social security number for Dawn City.

You bought a mask of ’K’ and placed it at home, though you don’t quite believe in the mythologized speeches of this orator. You know many people don’t believe either.

But then again, what if?

years old: To meet assessment requirements, you had to be stationed permanently in Dawn City.

You have extensive experience dealing with corporations and city residents, quickly gaining some prestige among the Wilderness Wanderers and Dawn City locals.

Some wanderers originally living near Denno City recognized you and naturally gathered around you.

In this year, you witnessed Dawn City’s development and turbulence, as well as the accumulated conflicts between Dawn City citizens and wanderer immigrants over the years.

You realized that there is no core conflict between the lower-class citizens of Dawn City and Wilderness Wanderers, but rather some common interests.

Christos began numerous old-city renovation projects, and through various channels, you undertook many projects.

You hired Wilderness Wanderers and lower-class citizens, with projects leaving almost no profit but aligning with Christos’ policy goals to create more jobs and food possibilities.

During this process, you often brought Wilderness Wanderers and struggling citizens to help each other. Under your operation, the Wilderness Wanderers and lower-class citizens near you got along particularly well, and life gradually improved.

The City Government noticed your actions, and Christos specially met with you. You chatted about your experiences over the years, and he awarded you with a Dawn City Blue Heart Medal—an accolade granted to outstanding citizens of Dawn City for their contributions to its development.

This medal doesn’t hold a high position within the entire Dawn City medal system; many Dawn City’s outstanding talents have received it, but you are the first ’immigrant’ to win this medal.

Your former Lawyer friend was also at the awards ceremony, and you reunited, conversing late into the night. Upon parting, he told you he still held a small amount of camel hair.

The Dark Lizard incident, back then, led to a sharp decline in the camel population in South Denor, and now the price of this camel hair has skyrocketed.

You heard about the Scavenger Act and anonymously donated most of your savings to the scavengers restarting their endeavors, still grateful for the help kind people gave you even though you’ve been away from Vitland for a long time.

During your time in Dawn City, you never stopped investigating the Dark Lizard.

This bustling metropolis is full of information sources far richer than the wilderness.

At the end of the first-year assessment, you became one of the first to obtain Dawn City citizenship, with your photo making the headlines.

Christos held a grand ceremony for the first batch of ’immigrants’ to receive identity, personally awarding you proof of identity and handing you the identification documents.

While he smiled, you could tell he wasn’t in good shape.

You know he’s worrying about the Grain Act, which is hindered in parliament.

You dialed the number from memory to the old councilman’s campaign office, hoping to garner support for Christos at Gray Stone Palace. This was all you could do.

You failed to contact the old councilman. A friendly lady answered your call, recorded your identity and request, and said she’d relay your needs.

And henceforth, there was no further response.

You tried calling the number again, only to receive gentle and polite ’assurances.’

You took to the streets to march in support of Christos.

When the news about the Kaijet Group in Saint Joen City broke out, you were shocked, gaining the deepest understanding of the city and corporations for the first time.

The most brutal cult legends in the wilderness paled in comparison to these astonishing facts.

With the collapse of the Kaijet Group, Christos smoothly passed the Grain Act.

Supposedly, this was also orchestrated by ’K.’

You then packed your belongings alone, preparing to leave Dawn City. Now with formal identity, you could easily purchase an airship ticket and reside in the city normally.

As you were about to leave, you received a call from Heish. Skilled in information, she had discovered your donations and, as a ’thank you,’ prepared a ’gift’ for you.

She knew that the follow-up Talent Sequences of the ’Organizer’ included two paths: ’Talent Sequence 89: Member’ and ’Talent Sequence 91: Lone Wolf.’

She shared with you the Secret Medicine formula and ritual for the ’Lone Wolf’ and informed you of the possible location of the primary material for the ’Lone Wolf.’

It’s Twilight City, located in the south-central Federation, also near where the Dark Lizard lastly vanished.

You head to Twilight City.
