Chapter 479 - 245 Doomsday Fortress_2
...
Last night we occupied the container dock, and today we had the meeting, personnel arrangements, and formed alliances. By the time everything was busy, it was already evening. Considering that tomorrow is the end-of-season activity day, Maya declared it a free activity day and didn’t assign any work to everyone.
Peanut blew a whistle from the lookout post, and Lin Wu looked up to see Peanut waving. Lin Wu wondered, Can’t you speak in the headset? Still, he packed up the tennis ball and ended the fun with Wai, then headed to the post.
Lin Wu took the metal stairs to the second level, climbed the container’s built-in straight ladder to the third level, and then took the spiral staircase to reach the post. In contrast to the plain layout of the Sawmill, the containers were like a Rubik’s cube in three dimensions. To be blunt, it was just plain ugly. Moreover, both the first floor passageways and the second floor Corridor Bridge were very narrow. If two people wanted to pass by without turning sideways, they would inevitably bump into each another.
Of course, everyone had manners, and both sides would turn sideways to let the other pass.
Compared to the open Sawmill, the Doomsday Fortress offered a completely different experience.
Standing on the ground floor of the containers and looking up gave one the feeling of being in a prison. Looking down from the second floor felt oppressive. Looking up, on the other hand, one could see a vast expanse of sky that was comforting. Looking straight ahead was also good—it was orderly and square, perfect for someone with OCD.
The third floor was yet another experience. Although the third level was just a simple layout of containers in the shape of the letter ’U,’ looking down one could see the river and the sea, and looking up was an unbounded view. When Lin Wu climbed the 15-meter-high lookout, he truly understood the desire to "extend one’s view for thousands of miles." He wished he could be even higher to see even further.
Lin Wu approached Peanut, "What’s up?"
Peanut handed over the monocular telescope to Lin Wu, "See the Happy Bar in the living area?"
"Yeah." The living area was vast, with a dock road outside and fairly wide roads inside. This district had hotels, eateries, office buildings, residential areas, and more. The Happy Bar was located inside a three-story standalone building on Dock Road Two, and the bar’s sign was highly conspicuous on the rooftop.
