Night draped itself over the meadow, and the settlement Alex had hastily constructed glimmered in the flickering light of campfires. Wooden huts lined the perimeter, smoke curling from small chimneys. The command tent stood proudly at the center, a symbol of the fragile but growing foothold Alex had claimed in Evalian. On the table, the Mana Core Ore rested, wrapped in thick cloth. Its faint pulse seemed almost alive, like a heart beating in rhythm with the world itself. Alex leaned back against the tent's frame, rubbing his eyes. "...I can't believe I almost left this behind. One step outside my door, and I could've been history." Hans, standing silently beside him, tilted his head. "Kommandant... what exactly is that?" Alex gave a half-smile. "Something extremely dangerous... extremely valuable... and extremely mine to keep safe for now." His gaze drifted to the elf lying unconscious on a makeshift cot nearby, silver hair spilling over her shoulders, her chest rising and falling with shallow breaths. "Hans have someone keep a eye on her notify me if she wakes up " The system chimed softly. [Host Alert: Elf Subject - Unconscious. Injuries severe. Estimated Recovery: 3-4 days without magical intervention.] Alex smirked. "...Well, guess I get a few days to focus on building without any unexpected drama. Perfect." Morning light spilled over the meadow, glinting off steel helmets and the tips of rifles, highlighting the organized chaos of the camp. Alex opened the system interface, its glowing blue panels humming with new menus unlocked after upgrading to System Tier 2. [System Tier 2 Active] [Max Summon Cap: 400 Units] [Unlocked Units: Special Forces | Heavy Artillery | Cavalry Regiments] [Enhanced Scanning: Mana Detection +200%] [Special Function: Mana Infusion - Apply Mana Cores to Strengthen Troops and Structures] Alex's lips curled into a grin. "...That's more like it. Time to turn this patch of meadow into a proper stronghold." He tapped the [Resource Servey] tab. [Nearby Resource Nodes Detected: Wood - 500 units | Stone - 200 units | Iron Ore - 50 units | Mana Crystals - Unknown] "...Wood and stone are easy. Iron... we'll see. Mana crystals?" He raised an eyebrow. "Interesting... but I need a stable base before we start chasing magical loot." Alex turned to the engineers. "Dieter, your team expands the storage depot. Labor battalions, harvest wood from the forest. Steam tractor, haul stone from the hill. Efficiency is priority." Axes rang out, cutting through the early morning air. Labor battalions dragged logs while the black steam tractor hissed and chugged steadily across the field. Within hours, the depot doubled its capacity. [Resource Storage: Wood 500 | Stone 200 | Iron 50] [New Construction Options Unlocked: Workshop | Farm Expansion | Defensive Structures] Alex tapped the [Workshop] icon. [Workshop - Cost: Wood 100 | Stone 50 | Requires: Pioneer Engineers] "Perfect. This will give us the ability to maintain weapons, produce tools, and eventually craft more advanced equipment." The engineers went to work immediately. Wooden frames rose, glowing blue runes hovering over them as beams assembled themselves with uncanny precision. Within minutes, the small but sturdy workshop stood beside the expanded storage depot. [Workshop Complete - Operational] [Functions: Equipment Fabrication | Weapon Maintenance | Advanced Crafting] Alex leaned back, exhaling. "...This is coming together." The system chimed again, more insistent this time. [Advisory: Population Morale Below Optimal Level. Housing stable. Food supply limited.] Alex sighed. "...Right. People need to eat." He tapped [Farm Plot]. [Farm Plot - Cost: Wood 30 | Construction Time: 3 minutes | Requires: Civilian Labor] "Assign settlers. Start near the riverbank - fertile soil and plenty of water." The settlers and labor battalions immediately set to work. Blue runes shimmered over the tilled earth, accelerating seed growth as they dug irrigation channels. Within hours,
