Chapter 104: Stealing Equipments

When Nico shielded the garages, Medeia thought of something. If the Space Pocket can store any item, doesn’t that mean Medeia can store the tanks as well?

[Yes, Host! You are, in fact, able to store the tanks.]

[However, due to the large size, one tank will be equal to three space items].

Three wasn’t a bad number.

The number of tanks in Warstock Base was about 20 or so, so Medeia would only use 60 out of 1,000 capacity items.

However, how could she store those tanks when there were other people around?

Should she say that she had another ability? But it would be so annoying if she got other useful items in the future and lied about her abilities again.

"Hey, Tian, Simon, you can go out with Joy first. Take a nap in the car or something, because I want to explore this place again to make sure nothing useful is missed," Medeia said suddenly.

Tian, "We can help you explore the place."

Medeia smiled and pretended to be a nice lady. "No, that’s okay. You have been guarding this place for two days and must not have rested well."

Tian’s eyebrows furrowed because it was not usual for Medeia to speak to others with such a gentle intonation.

But since what she said was true, Tian didn’t think much of it. "Okay, we’ll wait outside then."

"C-can I wait outside too?" Nico pulled at the hem of her shirt. "I don’t want to explore this place."

"No, you stay here," Medeia replied quickly.

Nico wanted to run, but Medeia held his coat so tightly that he couldn’t even take five steps away from her.

"Shield the gate," Medeia ordered Nico. "Don’t ask questions."

Nico did as she said as soon as Tian and the others walked through the base.

"What’s going on?" asked Lucian, confused. "Do you have to do something you don’t want them to see?"

Medeia approached Lucian and touched her necklace. "I just got an interesting magical device," she explained, "This tiny crystal on the necklace can store anything with a capacity of 1,000 items."

Lucian lowered his head and looked directly at the white crystal, which reflected different colors when exposed to sunlight.

He looked confused, wondering where Medeia could get such useful items, but he decided not to ask. "You don’t want anyone to know about this thing, do you?"

Medeia nodded. "Others might try to steal it if they knew what it was for." She continued, "That’s why I don’t want anyone else to know about it except you."

Lucian shifted his gaze to Nico, making the boy nervous. "I-I promise to keep my mouth shut forever!"

"Oh, don’t worry about him." Medeia waved her hands nonchalantly. "Bear trusts the boy, so I’ll trust him too."

Lucian chuckled. "Really? You trust someone based on my dog’s judgment?"

"Yes! Because he’s a good boy." Medeia scratched Bear’s neck, getting the dog excited. "And will do anything to protect his mama."

Now she was Bear’s mama.

Lucian suspected that one day Bear would abandon him completely because he liked Medeia more than him.

"Alright, let’s clear this base now!" said Medeia enthusiastically.

She walked around the garage, inspecting each tank before storing it in her tiny crystal.

One by one, the massive tanks disappeared into the crystal. When she was finished, she had stored a total of 23 tanks, 35 jeeps, and 4 twelve-wheelers that seemed to take up 2 slots each.

[Space pocket capacity: 112/1,000]

Medeia let out a satisfied sigh because she still had so much capacity left. "I think I’ve already stored all the vehicles here."

Fortunately, Tian had taken out a truck, so she didn’t have to enter the garage after that.

Nico watched in awe, his fear immediately turning into a sense of curiosity. "How does that work? The tanks and trucks are huge and the crystal is so small!"

Medeia casually replied, "Magic, of course. You wouldn’t understand even if I explained it to you." She ruffled his hair playfully. "Now, come on. Let’s check out the rest of the base. We can grab their medical equipment and clothes while we’re at it."

A few days ago, they had decided to leave the medical equipment at the base until the medical bay in Red Canyon was ready. But now that Medeia could store everything in her Space Pocket, there was no reason to leave anything behind at Warstock Base.

The truth was, that Medeia didn’t want to set foot in the Warstock base again. Every corner of the place reminded her of the victims of the experiments conducted there, and the thought weighed heavily on her.

"Winter is coming, so let’s make it a priority to collect their winter clothing and equipment," Lucian suggested.

They moved quickly through the base, grabbing whatever supplies they could find. Medeia led the way, her flashlight illuminating the storerooms filled with winter gear.

The shelves held folded winter coats, rows of boots, and many thick blankets.

"This should be enough for everyone back in Red Canyon," Medeia said, tucking another pile of blankets into her space bag.

"What should we say if they ask when we’re taking this stuff?" asked Lucian.

Medeia said, "For the winter clothes, just tell them we got them from Richard. But for everything else, I want to build a secret storage room for the military vehicles and other things we’ve collected."

That way, her Space Pocket wouldn’t fill up so quickly, and she’d have the flexibility to store more items in the future.

"I can make it for you." Lucian leaned in closer and whispered, "Maybe build it underground so no one else has access."

The Stormclad base already had a basement, so Lucian could modify it to make it larger and seal off all entry points for added security.

Medeia nodded. "That sounds perfect. We’ll need to be as discreet as possible. No one can know what we have in there."

She would only bring out those deadly tanks and other things in case of emergency. Even though she planned to build the base for many people, it didn’t mean that she would neglect her own safe place.

Humans were unpredictable. Therefore, Medeia had to prepare for the worst-case scenario.

After they had gathered all the useful things, they left the base and covered the whole base with Nico’s shield.

"We’re ready to go." Medeia knocked on the car window to wake up Tian and Simon, who had accidentally fallen asleep in the car.
