Chapter 12 - A forest too full of life and a stupid decision.

Berto continued walking through the woods with the only goal of reaching the supposed humans but at any moment Berto was distracted by the animals and plants of the forest, besides that his armor was also constantly warning him of plants with medicinal effects, which he had never seen in the natural science books of the school.

Since all the plants that were marked by the armor had supposed medicinal properties, Berto took his time taking them all one by one, but only taking the flower and leaving the stem of the flower.

Berto kept doing the same thing for a long time until he came to a cave which had some broken wooden boards outside of it.

"I can not see anything at all..." (Berto)

Upon entering the cave further away a few steps from the entrance to Berto it was impossible to see anything since the darkness was incredibly dense.

Berto began to touch his helmet on all sides to see if this had a switch with a flashlight or night vision but it was in vain since it seemed that he did not have such a thing.

"Fantastic!...the year 2045 and this damn thing does not have a flashlight, which would be the most basic of all..."(Berto)

Berto began to take things out of his inventory with the hope of using something to create fire.

The first idea was to use the silver scales to collide with one another and create sparks to set fire to the wooden boards that were outside the cave.

But they proved to be useless because when they hit them, they did not make sparks.

"... I don't anything more." (Berto)

Berto remembered the small rock of the desert and decided to try his luck to see what he could do.

The stone of the desert continued to shine in the same way as before, without any kind of change whatsoever.

"....."(Berto)

Berto remained silent observing and waiting for something to happen but at the end of everything nothing happened.

"Fuck this." (Berto)

[Do you want to consume "heart of solar anomaly"?]

[Do you want to consume "heart of solar anomaly"?]

[Do you want to consume "heart of solar anomaly"?]

[Do you want to consume "heart of solar anomaly"?]

[Do you want to consume "heart of solar anomaly"?]

[Do you want to consume "heart of solar anomaly"?]

Berto continued to observe the rock while his visor had thrown that message around the 6 times in a row without stopping.

Berto approached the rock to his mouth and it was covered with metal giving a bite to the rock, slowly consuming it.

"Well, I did it...Happy?" (Berto)

[Mutation obtained "Solar anomaly"]

[The servo-armor has been reinforced with extra heat resistance]

[The servo-armor obtained an extra improvement in the right arm section]

Berto raised his hand watching it and this created a flame which illuminated the cave from outside.

"I guess it could work..." (Berto)

Berto had not been surprised since the previous mutation had been a mutation in the skin turning it into scales harder than steel.

Although still left to see the fact if "The solar anomaly" could be used offensively.

Berto concentrated the fire on his hand and threw it against the wall melting it.

"It reminds me of the red imp that launched balls of fire." (Berto)

"Great, this is awesome." (Berto)

Berto continued to enter the cave until he suddenly began to notice light at the other end.

"An exit from the cave?" (Berto)

Berto continued walking to that light and managed to notice that it was just a cave filled with water, the hill was illuminated by the sun.

[An alternate route submerged in the water has been detected]

"Hmmm, an alternative route?" (Berto)

Berto observing the water carefully noticed that this was a whirlpool that seemed to suck everything that fell into it.

But the knowledge that there was something that took him further away stopped him from thinking about the danger he would drown.

"Fuck this, I have nothing to lose anyway." (Berto)

Berto jumped into the swirling water and began to be carried by a tunnel until finally he reached an area of calm waters and saw a strange light emerging from above him.

Without much else to do, Berto was swimming up and over the water, finding he had gone out to sea.

"...My distance is?" (Berto)

[655 human life signs have been detected at 157,310 meters distance from the user in the north direction]

"....." (Berto)

Berto remained in silence totally angry with himself.

"I do not know why I trust that this would take me faster to the humans." (Berto)

Berto noticed that on the shore of the beach, there were humans who were fishing.
