Capítulo 574: Armistice
The start of the path that snaked up Black Mountain wasn't all that different from the rest in the Mojave... Chipped, rotten, and mangled concrete with dead-looking shrugs sprouting from between the huge cracks cover them. "Maybe my first action as world ruler president king... Chief...? Would be to fix these damn roads." he huffs as he hops over a particularly large crack.
Over in the distance, he spots a shack with a Super Mutant sitting conspicuously outside of it... He already knows who it is, Neil, the 'gatekeeper' of Black Mountain. Despite how ominous the name sounds, the Mutant actually attempts to keep unwary travellers from stumbling into the other hostile mutants and getting eaten alive.
"Hold up there traveller, you'd best turn back before you regret your life choices... Though, venturing further up this path would count as a 'Death Choice'..." the Mutant states in a far more eloquent tone than Afton had expected.
Afton shrugs, "I hope you aren't friends with anyone up there... You should probably start thinking about moving to Jacobstown."
"Wait what? What're you talk-Wait, stop!" Neil stutters, jumping to his feet and following Afton as he walks through the entrance and further up Black Mountain... Almost immediately, Afton's attacked by a Nightkin that jumps out of invisibility while swinging some kind of make-shift sword.
Neil reaches his arm out futilely in an attempt to save the human, but is shocked still when the Nightkin is instantly bisected into halves, each side flopping to the floor lifelessly.
Afton turns his head towards Neil, "As I said earlier, you should probably think about moving..."
...
Neil continues to watch dumbfounded as Afton blazes a trail up the mountain path. Bullets deflect from his armour, and any Mutant that gets into arms-length quickly becomes mincemeat. Soon enough the human gets out of view, and once Neil composes himself he turns around like a robot, searches through his hidden safe, and pulls out a couple bottles of whisky. "Man... Humans are becoming scary."
One hour later :
Afton had finally reached the top plateau of Black Mountain, there were numerous derelict satellite dishes among the large nuclear creates decorating the place... Though, Afton wasn't able to focus on that due to the twenty or so mutants currently firing at him.
He dodges most of the fire, his armour deflected the rest. But the biggest threat to him was actually the heavy incinerators some of the enemies wielded. That problem was easily solved with some application of his plant-arm 'Jutsu-grass-style razor whip!'... Yeah, he wasn't confident enough in himself to shout his 'special attack names'.
Afton swings his 'razor whip arm' and decapitates one of the mutants that wielded a rocket launcher and pulls the free weapon towards himself, turning it towards his enemies and firing the rest of its ammunition.
After every mutant in eye-sight is dead, he moves onto the next area, the peak of the mountain where the single working satellite dish sits, along with two concrete buildings that look relatively unharmed from the Nuclear apocalypse.
He takes a single step towards the broadcasting building when he hears a peculiar shout behind him, "INVADE MY MOUNTAIN WILL YOU!?"
Once he turns to face it, his mind halts for a moment at the sight... A large nightkin wearing a blonde wig, pink heart-shaped glasses, and lots of leather rags seemingly designed to look like a dress... Ah, this must be Tabitha, leader of the Super Mutants and 'eager' radio host.
She swings a jet-powered sledgehammer at him, but he easily blocked it by stepping backwards, afterwards swinging his Ultra Chainsword at them. The strike hits their stomach, disembowelling them and causing their intestines to burst out of the wound as if they were a failed confetti bomb.
Tabitha doesn't even seem to notice the wound though, "YOU WILL DIE HUMAN!" they scream, swinging their weapon again. Afton blocks it this time however, using his armoured arms to take the brunt of the force. He doesn't move an inch either due to his [Stonewall] Perk, his Power armour combined with the Perk actually causes Tabitha to stumble backwards from the impact.
Additionally, they accidentally stand on a stray intestine and tear a large portion of its length out... Not that Tabitha notices.
Despite their stumble though, they quickly recover, this time sending an off-balance swing at him... Which he reciprocates by punching the head of the Supersledge, his various Perks allowing him to destroy it with ease... The jet of the Supersledge explodes as a result, burning a good portion of Tabitha's visible skin, along with its? wig.
Tabitha's earlier shouting had now quickly devolved into unintelligible shouting, groans, and screams as they writhed on the floor weakly. Their injuries had finally caught up with them, allowing Afton to easily behead the mutant, finally ending the Mutant threat of Black Mountain. Something that neither the NCR, nor the Brotherhood had managed to do.
[WELCOME TO LEVEL 54!!]
As always, the world freezes and the selections appear before him. All of which he quickly scrolls past to find the Mutation he'd been meaning to acquire...
[Beauveria mordicana duraferro] : User's arm becomes as hard as steel.
Oh yes... This would essentially give him the ability to form a suit of armour wherever he went... And that's not even considering the offensive applications... No longer would his razor whips be so frail, and now he could form an awesome Prototype blade-like Alex Mercer... Ok, maybe that wouldn't be all that useful considering his advanced weaponry... But it was still badass!
He'd also be able to form a shield now that would be as strong as steel... Instant cover whenever he needed it... Plus, he could trap people in steel-strength plant prisons... Like how he'd killed Dog, but even more terrifying!
He nods his head and clicks confirm, quickly feeling his arm noticeably become... Denser? It wasn't really explainable to someone who hadn't experienced it, but it was akin to feeling your head become heavy due to lack of sleep... Something like that.

Capítulo 575: Ghoulish Appearance...
It only took a couple hours for Afton to completely annihilate the Super Mutant presence atop Black Mountain. It took another thirty minutes to loot the place and look for anything worth taking... Surprisingly, and somewhat terrifyingly, the Super Mutants had in their possession three Mini-Nukes...
Where had they gotten them? He had no idea.
Why had they not used them at all? No idea.
Why were they stored in a manner one would a rugby ball? Again, no idea.
Regardless, Afton quickly stowed them away before continuing to look around the place... Eventually, he found the machinery that allowed the radio station to function, it all looked in relatively good condition, so Afton had an idea... Why not start his own radio station? It wasn't like anyone would be able to stop him... Nor would anyone really care unless he started doing something weird... Like broadcasting people's secrets, or kidnapping people and forcing them to confess live on air...
He shakes those ideas from his head, even if he tried that, the validity of those secrets would be called into question... After all, people are willing to say anything to stop getting tortured.
He plays around with the equipment for a bit, eventually accessing the database that Tabitha had been using to store prerecorded messages... Afton quickly deletes these and wonders what he should replace them with...
Back in the Brotherhood base, Veronica, Christine, Miles, and Melissa were listening to the Black Mountain radio while watching and listening to the battle occurring atop it. That is, until the sounds stop completely, leaving them in relative silence...
The silence continues for around thirty minutes until some sort of interference...
*Bzztch! BzzzzzZZZTCH!*
"*Bzztch!* Annnnd GOOooood Morning Mo-Ja-ve!" A familiar voice blares over the radio, disregarding the fact that it's late in the afternoon already...
...
"Afton." the people sitting around the radio all mutter simultaneously, having already experienced his past antics.
"My name is DJ Aftonie Parkin-in-ya-lot, an I'm here to rock your world!... Yeah!"
...
"Now let me introduce the first, and last song you'll ever hear on this station!..." he shouts, but no music seems to start, nor do any instrumentals... "Fly me to the moon! Let me play among the stars!" he starts singing, without any accompanying music at all... Afton's voice isn't bad, but, it's more akin to something you'd hear singing in your shower than anything else.
Despite it all though, no one in this world had heard this song by Frank Sinatra, it was one of the songs that were lost after the Apocolypse... So it was actually fairly interesting to listen to...
Afton goes on to sing the entire thing, and after he finishes, he flips a switch and causes the song he'd just sung to loop on the station... But not before adding a final message to the Super Mutants who'd been using the station to guide their way.
"Super Mutant brothers and sisters! If you seek salvation and freedom from the chains that bind you! Head to Jacobstown and make something of yourselves among your own kind!"
This message would be played every time his 'Fly me to the moon' song was looped, which would hopefully help some of the wandering Super Mutants looking for sanctuary... It would also draw some negative attention towards Jacobstown, but with Bulwark and New Vegas's protection, that wouldn't be much of an issue.
The group only realises Afton had played a prank on the Mojave after their third time listening to the looped song...
Back atop Black Mountain, after Afton had 'changed' what was being broadcast, he searched around the last building he hadn't had the chance to check yet... And was very surprised to find a decrepit-looking Ghoul wearing a Mechanics jumpsuit trapped in a room. He'd obviously been imprisoned by Tabitha, judging by the large amounts of sticky notes covering the frame of the door, each saying 'DO NOT TOUCH MY THINGS!'...
Once Afton got the door open, the Ghoul inside slowly stood up and bowed in Afton's direction, "Thanks for gettin' me outta there boss, you have no idea how hard those crazy mutants can work someone... If I weren't a Ghoul I woulda starved to death, died of exhaustion, died from getting manhandled..." he shakes his head, "The names Raul." he says with a Mexican accent.
"Uh huh... Well, now that I've freed you I should be on my way... I got shit to do." he says and starts to leave when the Ghoul speaks up again.
"That's a great idea boss... I'll just head home too, to my lonely abandoned shack... In the middle of nowhere... Alone..."
...
Afton crooks a brow, "Do you need something?"
Raul shrugs his shoulders, "No. Why do you ask? You need me for somethin'? It'd definitely beat wandering through the wasteland alone, with a high risk of getting murdered and eaten... Not even in that order..."
"Look, if you need something just tell me, otherwise I'm just gonna leave you here." he states, not willing to deal with this incredibly sarcastic Ghoul.
...
"Look boss, I ain't got much, and I don't even know how long I've been kept here... This isn't all due to gratitude for saving me, but since you helped me out, I want to do the same for you... You get me?" he asks.
Afton crosses his arms, "That depends, you got any talents?"
The Ghoul looks as if he's about to say something but purses his lips, "I-er, I used to work as a mechanic before the war, I can repair shit, maybe even a vehicle if you find the parts..."
...
That's interesting... Another Ghoul who lived before the war, just like Dean. He also needed some extra hands for the development of new vehicles, their current pace of making them certainly wasn't enough, especially considering they'd be facing bigger factions soon enough.
"Hmm... As long as you keep your mouth shut about my secrets, I think I could find a place for you... But, you have to be willing to have a chip installed." he states.
"A chip? Like those things you put in animals?" he asks incredulously.
Afton nods, "Kind of, but these chips have been specially designed for humans... They will essentially read your thoughts and inform me if you intend to betray me. Trust me, they've been extensively tested so they aren't dangerous."
"That sounds like some sci-fi-tech-shit, boss... I'm in!"
