It's been one month since the last update, and things are moving along. The environment as hostile as ever, and my face more weathered by the hour. Work is hard but rewarding, and I keep extracting the $SCRAP, only to reinvest it in better equipment and knowledge. The thought of constant improvement is also one of my few comforts, in addition to the tiny bed I've managed to cram into my humble vessel, the Rusty Berta.
I've done a decent job in hiding her from raiders and thieves, if I may say so myself. Though it feels like I'm not doing her justice by using her for a simple living quarter. She deserves adventure and exploration, but that's a luxury I simply cannot afford these days.
So as I'm waiting for better days, I've been keeping my head down, focusing on my growth and staying safe. Since my last entry, I've focused my efforts on increasing my Defense, as I experienced some pretty bad raids where a bunch of SCRAP was stolen.
As you can see, my investments have been significant, increasing my stats across the board, except Engineering where I'm still hesitant. I've been focusing on upradging my Defenses to keep my stash as safe as can be. But with the increasing costs of everything, I see no other option but to upgrade my Engineering soon to keep up. I'd just like a couple more bumps on my defense before moving further on that.
Not that I haven't been out stealing my fair share of SCRAP from other explorers. Such is the reality out here – You take what you need or you lose it.
One uplifting thing I've come to realize is that despite my lack of adventures, I'm doing quite well compared to many explorers. The latest data show that I'm ranked as #39 among all the explorers currently residing on Terracore. It would appear that my persistence is paying off.
Signing off for now.
