Bringing Life To The Wasteland!

Soon the 10 remade Thugs reached the Vault where I implanted them each with a Neural Implant Seed and began speaking with them.

Then after speaking till sunrise, I found that all of the Thugs' memories were in fact gone, leaving them all in an Amnesiac state, which is perfect.

Plus, I also wanted to use them as test dummies for my Blessings.

I then had them select new names and had them then equip the Leather-Reinforced Vault jumpsuits before picking their own rooms.

Although they have lost their sense of selves, they still had their common sense and memories of the world and of course, experience.

Basically, the only thing they really lost was their personalities. They still have the experience of combat and various other things and could access their past lives with some difficulties since I can't make the brain remove memories quite yet, but for them, it's like a different person looking at someone else's memories, they would judge those memories by their own experiences and views.

Once morning arrived, I looked at the timer on the Sapling and found that it had 23 days left until the Spore Oak Sapling mȧturės.

Once everyone was awake, I had the 10 Thugs and Claire meet.

While she was away, I wanted to ask the Thugs' a question.

"Elijah," I spoke to the ex-leader of the Thugs'.

"Yes, Yggdrasil?" Asked Elijah.

"How would you feel about having the opportunity to be the first to join the Rangers, a group that I am forming that will not only protect Nature in times of dangers with their lives but also serve as the Law Enforcement of the land, it would be your job to wander the wasteland and enforce Justice in the defense of those that cannot defend themselves, I offer this opportunity to not only you but your colleagues as well, what do you say?" I asked Elijah.

I wanted a group that not only could do the hard work for me, but also improve our moral standing in this wasteland, plus as a bonus, while they travel the wastes they would be able to hunt down a few animals, mutated animals, and abominations and help me earn more exp that way.

And through these Rangers, I would be able to recruit new people for the Garden of Eden.

After an hour passed, Claire left for Vegas with her bodyguards, the Spore Carriers while Elijah and his comrades decided to become rangers.

So, summoning up my Status, I examined [Bless and Curse]

[Bless and Curse

Blessings: [Bark Skin](1,000 Energy), [Solar Powered](1,000 Energy), [Nature's Child](10,000 Energy), [Heal Wounds](500+ Energy), [Regeneration](500+ Energy), [Regrowth](500+ Energy), [Fertility](500+ Energy), [Good Health](500+ Energy),

Curses: [Random Sickness](1,000+ Energy), [Radiation Sickness](1,000+ Energy), [Cursed Land](5,000+ Energy)], [Brain Rot](1,000+ Energy)]

I had quite a few Blessings and Curses at my disposal, and now that I had someone to test it on, I could properly find out what they did, besides the ones that were self-explanatory like [Bark Skin] and [Radiation Sickness].

But first, I need to check how much energy I had.

\===============/

Looking at my status, I was surprised by how close I was to already level up, and just look at that Energy production!

Due to the locations of two of my colonies, including my main colony, I could only truly expand at a rapid pace at my Zion Valley Colony, which is what I have been doing and it has greatly helped me so far.

Now then, let's test these blessings!
