章 112: Ferm Militarization Complete

It was five o'clock in the morning, and there were no mishaps to report. The night had passed without incident, with the construction and fortification efforts in the City of Ferm progressing smoothly. The soldiers Vincent had summoned were already establishing their routines, patrolling the perimeter and manning the newly installed defenses. 

Vincent stood at the edge of the command center, a cup of steaming coffee in his hand. He surveyed the city with a critical eye, noting the progress that had been made since they began. The modular barracks were fully assembled, and the soldiers had already moved in. The airfield construction was nearly complete, with the prefabricated runways and hangars taking shape under the floodlights. The fuel depots and ammunition storage facilities were securely in place, and the vehicle garages were ready to house the armored personnel carriers, tanks, and helicopters that had been acquired.
