Apocalypse Monster
Chapter 043: Snow Storm
With the help of everyone, Natan managed to create a seat on the Metaphor, three meters long and two meters wide. He also installed a roof on the top, and a wall made of wood taken from the Dungeon Tower.
The wood of the Dungeon Tower is very strong and durable, not easily weathered, which is why it becomes a very quality material. Moreover, at the bottom was also made a skeleton of iron processed by Alchemy Erina, and some of Ayumi's abilities.
In this workmanship, Vely was the one who helped the most, yet strangely did not get the Craftsman Job or the others. From this, he guessed the Player could not get two Sub-Job.
Rengga, or a seat on Metaphor is also equipped with a warm room, and the floor uses Yeti Skin to give a soft warm impression.
For this trip, Kuro transforms into an ordinary little black cat, which is the same as a small cat in general.
"Sir, how long will we get to the western end of Java?"
Natan turned to the front right looking at Ayumi who was playing with Kuro. "With the current speed, it might take twenty days. But if I were to run when there was no snow, it should be less than an hour." He has tried to check how far he can travel in one second, minute, and hour.
Natan has 603 AGI Points, which if multiplied by two, becomes 1206 kilometers for one hour. But unfortunately, if he maximized the potential of his full speed, he could only last for ten minutes before finally running out of stamina.
"Twenty days 'do you ..." Ayumi let out a long breath. "It was a long time."
"We can't do anything about it, the streets are also covered with snow. There is no way we can run on it, Metaphor also can not run faster because of its large body" said Natan who opened the window curtains behind him. He looked at the Skeleton Knight who could walk freely on the frozen surface of the snow.
Metaphor has the meaning Transport, which comes from Greek.
Natan turned her face and looked back at Ayumi. "Skeleton Knight found a minimarket. Seems untouched at all, and most likely a lot of stored food."
"REally?!" Ayumi and Erina were very excited when they heard the food. The two stood up and put on their gear, then walked to the front to walk out.
"No need to leave, Skeleton can bring us food. Try opening the Inventory Guild."
Immediately, the three others who were with Natan in the room started to open the Inventory Guild. It looks like a lot of stuff is growing, especially for snacks that are getting more and more every time.
For Natan himself, he only took mineral water to maintain the quality of his body.

It had been 70 days since the world had turned chaotic and was filled with monstrous monsters. Natan and his team-mates have arrived in Jakarta after a ten-day journey.
Their level increase was quite terrifying despite just sitting relaxing inside the Rengga, and sometimes making attacks from there.
Natan had already reached level 270, with Ayumi and Erina the 268. For Vely himself, it had already reached level 230. Their strength increase was extremely fast not only from the monsters they were fighting, but also from the consumption of Monster Core or Magic Core.
Point Exp of the Magic Core was no longer 50%, but 100% as Kuro re-evolved and obtained the form of the Shadow Lion King.
Nathan had three more Mammoths which he named Metafors, Metaforz, Metaf.
With four Mammoth Tanks, Natan can build a house with an area of 70 meters² . And if he encountered a group of humans, the Skeleton Knight would untie the body of the Mammoth Tank, then deposit it into the Inventory Guild.
"I really didn't think we could build a house that could walk. Moreover, the Mammoth Tank could still walk on the surface of the snow." Vely expressed his admiration by looking out through the glass window. He looked to the right and saw Nathan sitting on the porch. "Natan, are you planning to enlarge the house?"
"That's a good idea, and although the speed of the Mammoth Tank does not decrease how large the load is. But it still harms us, it is very difficult to find a way that can be passed" replied Natan.
Vely gave a small nod, then walked towards the stairs connecting to the lower floor.
The lower floor was the floor whose bottom was parallel to the Mammoth's knees, and the second floor was on the back. Therefore, the first floor has a smaller room, about 30 meters².
Nathan stood up from his chair, and turned to enter the room while closing the door. He also did not forget to close the window curtains and turn on the lights made of Magic Core made by Ayumi. "Republica, Erina. Don't always play, take a shower."
"Good, Brother." The two stopped their card game, and walked towards the stairs to the lower floor to cleanse the body.
"Damn it! If the snowfall is too heavy, our trip will be hampered—"
Nathan turned to the right, heading north when he felt the sudden appearance of the monster life. Then he turned his face again and looked straight ahead to the west.
Natan opens Mapping and Appraisal simultaneously. He saw many monsters that came from the west, northwest and north. The monsters were Yeti, Snowman, Pole Deer, Mammoth and Ice Golem.
Their level was indeed not very high, only 180. However, due to the limited number and visibility, the Natan group is currently very disadvantaged.
Natan turned off the lights of the room so that their position was not really clearly visible, although it seemed useless because the Skeleton let out a blue flame.
Then it moves towards the right window that leads to the north. He opened the window slowly and took out his left hand, to check how fast the wind was moving. "Thirty meters per second from the north, this slightly affected the shots. What else is the direction of the wind and its monsters opposite to where I am."
Natan took out the TRG Sako and placed it in a slightly open window. He pointed his muzzle at the approaching monster because it was attracted to the fire of the Skeleton.
Natan turned to the left and operated the interface screen, then he sent a message to Guild Chat asking for protection.
A faint smile was seen etched on Natan's face as a multi-layered shield was attached surrounding the Mammoth House.
Finally, Natan refocused on the dozens of monsters in the northern direction that were running faster than the others. He locked down dozens of monsters that entered within his range of sight, then pulled the sniper trigger. "Increase Shot!"
Eleven Mana Bullets shot out in the extremely heavy snowfall, but fortunately the Mana Bullet continued to accelerate despite slowing down slightly from its supposed speed.
The Mana bullets scattered following the target that was already locked, piercing through their heads in one shot and killing him. The Mana Bullet that had killed was still visible and shot far away.
"Curved Shot!"
The remaining Mana Bullets turned and targeted the other monsters that were still close together, some of which were again directed upwards.
"Bullet Rain!"
The Mana Bullets grew even more than before, and Point Exp revenues continued to flow even though it was still a long way off to level up.
"Explosion Bullet!"
Duarr! Duarr! Duarr!
The earthy explosion rang out from a distance and saw flames soaring high in the dark blizzard. The blazing flames killed the Snowman and the Ice Golem.
The north is over. He ordered one of the Skeleton Knights to take the Item Drop there, and he moved to the front porch to kill the monsters westward.
With the protection, the blizzard could not go inside and make it free to roam outside the Mammoth House.
"Sister, what's going on?"
Natan looked back at Ayumi who was lighting the lights. "Monster's coming at us, and it's snowing outside. Tonight we'll rest here, and make sure the protectors keep active so we don't get buried in the snow!" He was a little screaming.
Ayumi nodded her head, and took out the Dragon Magic Wand from storage. He placed his magic wand on the floor in a vertical position, and allowed the magic wand to absorb his Mana to defend the Magic Barrier.
Natan turned his face and refocused on the growing monsters. By looking at the monsters that were coming, it was likely that he would not sleep again until the morning to guard the surroundings.
