It's been one week since I hid in the tunnel along with the group. A half-day later, they sent a hunting group to the tunnel, but they only found a dead end with no sign of Andrews group anywhere.

From their energy signatures, they were no better than rookies, so there was no bullshit power that searches surrounding.

I already sealed our behind it using the soil I got from digging and filtering, leaving behind a tiny hole.

With some little artificial light, an upgraded air stabilizer, brewage maker, and food fabricator. The group doesn't have to worry about any kind of disease or vitamin deficiency.

"Mealtime."

"Oh, it is already ?"

"Heh, time sure flies when one has fun."

Following my signal, Andrews's group halts their work and walks towards my deposit to inject their work.

"Stop playing with that thing! HM warned that it cut off your arm with a simple click!"

"Sorry, sorry."

One of them said while playing with the gun-shaped tool strapped on his arms.

Right now, all of them dons a suit made of intricate plates connected to retractable head protection. It has a built-in breather and miniature version of my converter with a container.

RM-34 The first-generation hazard suit allows an ordinary human to work and collect necessary resources in a dangerous environment.

This is a reclamation suit I produced at my factory.

As a reclamation unit, I have already possessed the technology to manufacture those protection suits.

So it was easy for me to provide each of them with a mining rig. Like one wise person said, work efficiently, not harder.

Of course, I am not raising them, slaves. It is both inefficient and unethical.

If the given benefit is good, people can work in the same way as usual. And if there is more profit, then they can work hard as slaves.

And I am providing all of them.

The first is self-safety! That is what the suit is for!

The second is a meal!

"Hey, Rolf, what set you getting."

"I tried B, so this time I am thinking of getting E set."

The man called Rolf pressed the button for E set meal and coffee flavor brewage while his friend took a usual A-set meal with a chocolate flavor brewage.

A moment later, my fabricator opened its lid and presented two sets of meals with a brewage that more small in size.

Nufuu~

This is the power of my food fabricator that can convert pure matter into an artificial meal that posses the same characteristic as the original!

It smells, tastes just the same as any other food, but all of them got the same amount of vitamins and the nutrition value for each member.

They thought of eating different food in different amounts in size, but in reality, all of them are the same.

I completely revolutionized the food industry in this world!

Damn, I wish I had this thing back in the home.

I could eat my doner and carbonated energy drink all day without worry!

As for matter?

In fact, I am able to reduce expenses in some sets by upgrading both of my brewage and fabricator, so it is okay for both parties.

But of course, they don't need to know that.

Just like that, everyone sat at the table with each of their chosen sets of the meal.

No matter how grumpy one is, a good meal always lightens the mood. So in few days, the group's morale went back up.

As for the third, I promised them to share all unrefined jades and mana stones when their life is guaranteed.

Guaranteed safety, a good environment, and promised riches with those on their mind, the group became more united under those flags.

Thanks to them, I earned more than 3t of matter in a day, and it keeps increasing as I continue to upgrade myself with that.

And plus, I found the other half of the remains of the tank tracks from a previous time.

What a status screen!

I upgraded my main turrent and armor with the new 120mm cannon and armor I got from the tank wreckage.

Despite the reduced thickness, it provides higher protection due to upgraded composite armor made up of graphene and ceremite.

At the same time, I installed three spider eyes to cover my blind spot and enhance the targeting of my new turrents.

I installed two sensors on my back and one under my hull.

Thanks to those upgrades, my size is almost doubled.

Of course, I checked my appearance using my drone.

Damn, I look awesome!

I am one step closer to becoming the moving fortress of my dream!

As for the main character Chen, he became busier than usual. As now he got a mysterious teacher from earring.

Using a hidden bunker camera, I look at the mysterious teacher before it disappears into the mark on Chen's right hand.

He got an appearance of a handsome man dressed in very stylish armor with the same mark as Chen's hand on his back.

His aura gave the same feeling of various cold immortals or CEOs I read in various books.

To be frank, he was not the type I like.

I like it if I see his relationship with the female lead but as meeting as a person?

I would have to decile meet a Mr.Ice berg.

As his lover?

NOPE!

I would die from secondhand embarrassment. Somethings should observe to happen on people not on myself.

As for Bao?

The main character still trying to spare time with her, but he was just too busy.

So, I usually left with her as Andrews and others are too old for her age.

And I don't want her to hear their dirty talk or dad jokes.

In some way, I became her caretaker. She would play around me during break and ask some questions from time to time.

I only gave her a suit without any mining gear as there is no way I would give such a thing to a child.

It is like giving scissors to a toddler.

You can't help but worry every moment.

During work time I would let her play with my drones. With its small smooth body with a single camera-like big eye, it became something similar to a pet to her.

Just like that, the days went by, until a month passed since I got rented away.
