Hans was taken aback by the system's sudden prompts.
System, what a joke, he scoffed inwardly. I roamed around the colony and even inspected the fish-processing center hoping for a prompt like this. Yet you stayed silent. Now you suddenly appear?
------
[ Strategic Facilities must meet a hidden criteria. ]
------
Hidden criteria, Hans clenched his fists.
The Scout behind the wheel stiffened slightly. The Commander's sudden silence always meant something unpleasant was brewing.
As if hearing Hans's pleas, an additional prompt popped up.
------
[ Only facilities that contain specialized logistical, industrial, or military infrastructure are considered Strategic Facilities. ]
------
You could have told me of this earlier, Hans thought bitterly. He might have altered his long-term plans in consideration of these Strategic Facilities.
The system did not respond to his additional queries. Left with no choice, Hans tried to understand the system's intentions.
