Chapter 163 Reaping Ti!
"Rewards? Why haven't you reaped it yet?" Sara asked as she let out a confused chuckle.
"I've been occupied with more pressing matters," he explained, a slight shrug accentuating his casual deanor. "Besides, there's no urgency to claim these rewards, especially when there's no looming threat."
Sara nodded, her chuckle softening the mont. "Well, I hope the Wheel of Fortune and your other acquisitions bring sothing exciting your way."
"Let's get dinner later okay?" Richard said, leaning closer to the point where his lips were just one inch away from touching hers.
"Sure, dinner sounds great," Sara replied, her voice steady despite the close proximity between them.
Seconds later, Richard leaned closer and pressed his lips
Seconds later, Richard leaned closer and pressed his lips gently against Sara's in a brief but aningful kiss. As they parted, he smiled.
"I'll see you at dinner then."
Sara, a bit flustered but smiling, nodded in agreent. "Yes, see you then."
They both then went their separate ways, each absorbed in their thoughts. Richard made his way to his office, his mind already shifting back to the crucial tasks at hand. That is reaping his rewards.
He opened his system and looked at his updated stats.
[User: Richard Gonzales

Current limit to summon forces: 1,650
Current gold balance: 531,259,530]
The first thing he did was invest that one point to the Weapon Proficiency skill since his combat suit has a pulsefire cannon and he could really use so help by helping him with his aim. The second is the Wheel of Fortune.
[Notice: You have three spins in the Wheel of Fortune: Spin the Wheel and win huge prizes!]
"Three spins?" Richard muttered under his breath. Could it be a mistake, he is supposed to only have two—Richard suddenly realized that it has been a month and as stated by the chanics of the system he is guaranteed to receive one spin every month.
He looked at the rewards and saw if there were any differences from the last because it changed when he was going for a spin the second ti.
[1x Luxurious Chest
Military Aircraft Supply Pack
Military Vehicle Supply Pack
Weapons Supply Pack
Division Pack Personnel
Grand Prize: 500,000,000 gold coins. ]
As expected, the prizes changed but it seed to have decreased. Like it's just six of them. The grand prize had increased substantially, but given his existing gold reserves, it wasn't his primary focus. The supply packs and the Luxurious Chest held more imdiate value
He decided to proceed with his first spin. The digital wheel spun with a flurry of colors and sounds, eventually slowing down and landing on the 'Military Aircraft Supply Pack.' A sense of relief and excitent washed over Richard. This could an access to helicopters or even cargo planes, which would be a ga-changer for their mobility and evacuation plans.
He checked his inventory and saw the contents of the Military Aircraft Supply Pack. It's a list of aircraft ranging from helicopters to fighter jets, and even cargo planes! In helicopters, it's Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey, Blackhawks, and Chinooks. For fighter jets, it was an F-35 Lightning II, and to his surprise, a cargo plane – an Airbus A400M. Richard's eyes widened at the sight of the A400M; it was perfect for large-scale transport and evacuation operations, capable of carrying heavy loads and even vehicles.
Energized by this significant acquisition, Richard moved on to his second spin. The wheel spun and finally ca to a halt on the 'Weapons Supply Pack.' This pack revealed an array of advanced weaponry: assault rifles, sniper rifles, and even so heavy machine guns.
With one final spin remaining, Richard hoped for another strategic win. The wheel spun, its colors blurring together, and finally stopped on the 'Luxurious Chest'. Well, isn't this a lucky day?
Richard quickly navigated to his inventory and there he saw the icon of the Luxurious Chest, gleaming and glowing in a way so enticing it almost seed magical. He clicked on the icon to open it. Inside, he found sothing that was unexpected for him.
[You have opened the Luxurious Chest. You received Super Soldiers!]
"Super soldiers?"
He scanned the description of the soldiers:
[Elite combatants trained for anti-viral warfare. Exceptionally agile, imnsely strong, and resilient, these soldiers are equipped to confront and overpower the most formidable mutated zombies.]
Reading that flavor text alone made him get a bit more excited. When he talked about being able to buy futuristic tech, Super Soldier is one of them. Imagine a battalion of super soldiers against thousands of infected. For sure, the super soldiers would erge victorious.
And oh…it has been long since Richard browsed the infantry section. Looking at it right now in his shop tab, he saw the list updated. It was no longer infantry and support personnel, the super soldiers were now available. But when was it he wondered? He didn't notice as he focused more on the military hardware. Nevertheless, he now
has the option to acquire them. The price, however, was steep, like fifteen million gold coins per unit, but considering their capabilities, it seed worth the investnt. Richard made a ntal note to consider this option for future acquisitions.
The rewards he got in the luxurious chest gave him 10 Super soldiers. He wondered what they looked like.
"Let's summon one."
Richard clicked the super soldier's icon and a ssage bar popped up.
[Please select the number of units you wish to select for summoning.]
He tapped the interface, selected one, and confird the action. The air in his office shimred as a magic circle, etched with runes and geotric patterns, glowed brightly on the ground. The light grew intense, and with a soft whoosh of displaced air, the figure of the super soldier materialized before him.
The soldier that erged was a hulking figure, standing over six feet tall. Clad in a suit of tactical armor that seed to be a cross between a bomb suit and power armor. The armor was predominantly a dark, guntal gray, with sections that appeared to be reinforced with additional plating, particularly around the chest and shoulders.
The helt was sleek, with a visor that gave nothing away of the eyes behind it. Various cables and what appeared to be life-support systems were integrated into the suit, suggesting enhanced endurance and perhaps even automated dical facilities. The hands were encased in gauntlets that looked capable of crushing stone, and the boots were heavy, designed for stability and impact absorption.
Richard inspected the super soldier, noting the absence of visible weapons; he suspected that the suit had integrated systems yet to be revealed. In appearance it looked intimidating and strong, but is it just an appearance? He'll find out.
Suddenly—there was a knock on the door.
