A single-player post-apocalyptic game, but with an all-female teammate mod.

Of course, this only refers to personality.

Aono doesn't mind NTRing others, but it seems more satisfying to start over from scratch like this.

"Alright, let's clean up the mess."

Aono clapped his hands. "Hurry up and try to clear as many metal buildings as possible."

"Yes, Master." ×2

Icarus and Nymph flapped their wings and quickly searched the entire metal building.

Around 5 PM, Aono returned to the Ark with Icarus and Nymph.

As she passed through the central square, Nymph stopped in front of the wordless stone as usual.

Her wings emitted a pale blue light, and her fingertips skillfully tapped on the virtual keyboard.

A moment later, she withdrew her hand.

"Master, as before, there are no problems."

Aono nodded, as long as nothing changes.

Not long after the three returned to the Ark, Tsunade's voluptuous and tall figure appeared at the entrance to the captain's cabin.

She was carrying a bulging bag of supplies, and her face showed signs of fatigue.

"Hey, Aono-kun, how's it going today?"

The blonde, busty female ninja asked casually, then her gaze fell on Icarus and Nymph, who were leisurely floating beside Aono.

"A very fruitful harvest."

Aono smiled and gave the specific number directly.

"Today we cleared 26 buildings. Although Ika just arrived, she has absolute control over those mechanical monsters, especially the flying ones."

"Oh, that's really impressive. We're in Building 22 today, just like yesterday."

Not long after, the Shadow Squad returned.

They cleaned one more building than yesterday, making it 25 buildings.

Once everyone had arrived, all the supplies were piled up in a corner of the living room.

The level 2 warehouses were already full, and even the idle manufacturing workshops and canteens were overflowing.

Once the living room is full, the next place to go is the largest space – the training room.

At dinner, everyone sat around the long table, the crisp sound of bowls and chopsticks clattering together mingled with whispers.

Aono swallowed the last bite of grilled meat, put down his cutlery, and glanced at everyone present.

"Let me tell you about tomorrow's plans."

"According to the previous plan, starting tomorrow, we will switch to four teams operating at once."

He tapped the table lightly with his fingertip. "Icarus, you lead a team alone."

Aono looked at the pink-haired girl sitting quietly opposite him. "Although your level is only 15, your combat power is already more than enough to deal with these mechanical monsters. Your teammates are Asagi Aiba and Nymph."

Icarus put down his spoon and nodded calmly.

"Yes, Master."

Asagi, who was biting her spoon, paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded.

Icarus Ganymf, protecting her is no problem at all.

And she's no longer a helpless high school girl.

The increase in level, coupled with the extraction of chakra, seemed to have stimulated some of her Cain Priestess talents.

At the same level, her strength has surpassed that of Coco and Dudu.

“I brought the early spring decorations and headed north to Qingtu.”

"Our combat strength is relatively weak in early spring, so it will be safer for us to act with me. We have no north to travel with us, which will also allow us to check the condition of the blank stone tablet."

Aono said, "Kage and Dudu, Tsunade and Koko, you two keep your previous combinations."

The women nodded, having no objections.

Chu Chun Shiri quickly put down her milk cup and put her hands together in apology, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Um... I'll try my best not to hold anyone back!"

Whether in Academy City or Ark, she always knew that she was the team's undisputed "pretty face".

Aono's willingness to personally guide her warmed her heart.

"Shadow, you continue clearing westward. Tsunade and Koko, do the same, continue clearing the eastward side."

"I'll leave the south to you three, Asagi."

Aono looked around. "Get a good rest tonight. Starting tomorrow, we need to improve our efficiency even further."

He paused, then said seriously, "Try to completely empty this metal forest within three days."

"Hi~"

"Yes, Master."

"Yes, my husband."

……

The four squads are roughly equal in combat strength and their speed of clearing the map is also similar.

The number of metal buildings that can be conquered each day fluctuates around 24.

24 multiplied by 4...

They can clean about 90 to 100 metal buildings every day.

Including what was cleared before, the entire silver metal city has been completely transformed into a gray-black metal forest.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, after cleaning up the last silver metal building, Aono breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's finally over. Let's go to the stone tablet and meet up with everyone."

"Brother Qingye, you've worked hard."

The cute and gentle policewoman took out a handkerchief and wiped the fine sweat from Aono's forehead.

After three days of working together, Haruharu and Aono had become thoroughly familiar with each other.

Given her memory of intimate contact with the two of them at close range, she now finds it quite natural to perform intimate actions after getting used to it.

Aono also enjoyed the beautiful girl's attentive service without any qualms.

These past few days, he hasn't just been focused on fighting monsters by himself.

Xiao Chuchun followed behind him and successfully leveled up to level 19, becoming the highest-level member among the new members.

Even Icarus, the main force in the battle, is only level 19.

Twenty minutes later, Aono, holding Haru's hand, strolled leisurely to the central square.

From afar, he could see the Shadow Squad and Tsunade gathered around the stone tablet. When they saw him arrive, they all turned their gazes toward him.

"Yo, Aono-kun, you guys finally arrived."

Tsunade raised her chin. "The Kage and the others finished early, so they went south to lend a hand. Otherwise, Ikaros would probably have been ten minutes later."

Shadow nodded slightly and added, "With Nymph interfering and Icarus attacking, the clearing speed is very fast. When we came over, there were only three buildings left in the south."

Aono smiled and nodded, released Hatsuharu's hand, took two steps forward, and looked up to examine the thick, black, and long penis.

"Everyone's here, let's begin."

At Aono's prompting, Koharu walked to the stone tablet.

As the girl's slender fingers tapped the virtual keyboard, ripples spread across the surface of the stone tablet.

The originally plain gray stone wall suddenly lit up with countless dark blue circuit patterns, which rapidly intertwined into a complex three-dimensional data stream.

[Highest privilege command detected... Attempting to connect to core program...]

[WARNING: The core program has detected unauthorized intrusion and has activated its defense mechanism!]

Just as the self-destruct command was issued, two lines of bright red text suddenly appeared on the screen on the stone tablet.

Then the stone tablet trembled violently, and the originally pale blue light instantly turned into a dazzling blood red.

"Om-!"

The data stream on the screen began to scroll rapidly. At this moment, the core program seemed to have gained its own consciousness and chose to launch a desperate counterattack at the last moment, trying to regain control.

"Tsk, this thing really evolves fast; it's even learned to hide its strengths."

Aono frowned slightly, secretly glad that he hadn't been lazy and procrastinated until the last minute.

"Nimfu, Qian Cong." Qingye shouted.

Without him needing to remind them further, the two women had already quickly run to the other two sides of the stone tablet and began to help Chu Chun regain control.

Nymph's fingers flew across the screen, and the wings on her back suddenly unfurled. Waves of pale blue interference, like invisible chains, precisely wrapped around the chaotic data streams, forcibly suppressing the computing power of the core program.

Lan Yuqian held her breath and focused intently, relentlessly and precisely attacking every key point she sensed.

With the three working in perfect harmony, the crimson light only lasted for half a minute before gradually fading away.

"Master, it's done."

Nymph looked up and asked, "Destroy it now?"

"Ah."

"Ok."

Nymph typed the last character, and the core program began executing the self-destruct instruction.

Rumble...

As soon as the command was given, the surface of the wordless stone tablet was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and a series of muffled explosions came from inside.

The next second, the square stone tablet, which was more than ten meters high, turned into countless shimmering fragments of stone, collapsing inch by inch before everyone's eyes.

When the stone tablet was completely reduced to ruins, a large amount of gold coins and materials were scattered out from it.

Among them, a spherical object emitting a soft, silvery-white mechanical luster immediately caught everyone's attention.

It was a core the size of a fist, with what appeared to be a galaxy of rotating gears inside.

The most important reward for clearing this level, and an essential material for Ark's continued upgrades, is the [Mechanical Heart].

"We did it!" Shiori Haru's face flushed with excitement, and she couldn't help but clench her fist.

Almost simultaneously, a surge of heat appeared within the bodies of Asagi, Uiharu Kazari, and Nymph.

The three shared their extensive experience in destroying the core program, which directly leveled them up.

The changes are most noticeable in early spring. Just like level 10, level 20 is also a hurdle, where combat power will be greatly enhanced.

"Level 20..." She felt the surge of power within her and was somewhat surprised. "I feel incredibly strong right now!"

Aono smiled, not exposing the little vase's illusion.

He walked over, and the gold coins and materials turned into streams of light and entered his system inventory.

Take out the [Mechanical Heart] from it; it feels warm and smooth to the touch, yet it faintly conveys a sense of precise, rhythmic operation.

Aono weighed the mechanical heart in his hand, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes. The Ark could be upgraded again, not only could it continue to grow stronger, but it could also finally buy equipment.

In addition, living standards will also see another boost.

As for the changes in the outside world, he didn't care much.

As long as you are strong enough, it doesn't matter how the level world changes.

67. New NPCs & Strange Prison

All the other required upgrade materials had already been submitted. Aono led the women through the familiar energy shield and went straight to the captain's cabin.

The group walked through the living room and into the office.

The women followed behind Aono, looking at him with curiosity and anticipation.
