"Ah! Get lost!" Just as David was contemting, screams echoed once again inside the room. Shortly after, low growls could be heard from the staircase. The zombies had arrived.
"Little ck." David crouched next to Little ck, patting the dog''s behind, and pointed towards the staircase. "I''ll leave these things to you."
With that said, Little ck barked and slowly made his way towards the staircase. As Little ck reached the stairs, stared at the approaching zombies and unleashed a mouthful of mes without hesitation! Meanwhile, David leaned against the door, holding a steel battle sword in his hand. He swung the sword while listening to themotion inside the room.
Soon, Lily''s voice seemed to be muffled, followed by the sound of something being thrown to the ground. After a while, cries could be hearding from the room. asionally, a few zombies would climb in through the balcony. However, they were all low-level zombies, and David quickly dealt with them using his spatial de.
Half an hourter, click. Just as David finished dealing with a zombie, the door behind him suddenly opened. Brian walked out from inside, and his peripheral vision caught sight of David, causing him to chuckle lightly. But quickly, he concealed the smile and reced it with a cold sense of anger.
He turned to look at David, preparing to say something. "David..." Before he could finish his sentence, David''s gaze shifted past him, towards the room. The room was in chaos, with everything that was once neatly arranged now scattered on the floor. Various random itemsy strewn about. The only figure was bound tightly with ropes, sitting on the ground. Her mouth was stuffed with a cloth.
Lily''s hair was a tangled mess, and there were even bruises on her body, giving her a disheveled appearance. She turned her head and saw David''s figure. "Whimper!" Her eyes brightened, and she crawled towards the door with great difficulty.
David shifted his gaze,nding on Brian. He calmly said, "Take care of this." With that, David turned around and left.
"Ugh!" Lily, seeing David leave, struggled to stand up. She took a step forward, but her legs gave way, and she fell to the ground again. Watching David walk away, Brian hurried over to support Lily, who was in pain.
"Why hasn''t this trick worked?" Lily said with a cold expression. To make David believe, she even inflicted a few wounds on herself. She thought that would make David truly believe her. But she never expected him to be so heartless and have Brian Take care of this.
"He truly is an unforgivable guy!" Brian also looked helpless. This time, they had endured all the suffering for nothing.
Click. David returned, locking the door. "David, what happened upstairs?" Sally looked at David cautiously and asked.
David lifted a corner of the nket andy down. Before he closed his eyes, he noticed the c lying on the bedside table and reached out to embrace Sally. With one hand gently patting Sally''s back and the other stroking her head, he whispered, "It''s nothing, just two cats ying upstairs and attracting the zombies."
Listening to David''s words, Sally half-believed. She murmured in agreement and closed her eyes in the soothing luby of David''s voice. At the same time, images of what had just transpired between them reyed in his mind. He couldn''t help but feel sorry for them. They had schemed and plotted tirelessly, but in the end, it was all in vain,They brought it all on themselves.
David has never regarded people like Brian and Lily highly. In his eyes, they are merely two clownish figures. The reason David kept them around was to see what other tricks they had up their sleeves. Perhaps they would continue concocting melodramatic schemes and acts of self-sacrifice. That would be quite entertaining for David. After a faint smile appeared on his face, David began to fall asleep.
The next day, as David was about to leave with Duke, they passed by Arnold''s room, and David heard a faint voiceing from inside. Despite being quiet, David''s hearing abilities surpassed that of an average person.
"only need one today?" Arnold was taken aback but still handed Brian a portion of food. Although he had retired from the military, he could still detect a faint smell of blood from Brian.
"Thank you," Brian said, expressing his gratitude, and left the room with the food. By the time he stepped out of the door, David and Duke had already left. If he looked down the hallway now, he could still see David and Duke, with Little ck following behind them.
"Bro, is this the dog you raised? Why is it so big?" Duke looked at Little ck, raising a question. He had seenrge breeds of dogs in his life, but David''s dog seemed mutated or something.
Before David could answer, a zombie lunged towards Duke. "Roar!" The zombie opened its gaping mouth, ready to bite Duke.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>
"You—" Duke was about to thrust his long sword forward ,Suddenly a me of fire went faster than the sword, turning the zombie in front of him into ashes!
"What the hell?" Duke looked at Little ck in astonishment. "No way, this dog is so powerful?" This me actually incinerated the zombie, leaving only crystallized remains!
Duke was excited, his eyes shining as he observed Little ck up and down. Meanwhile, Little ck, under his scrutiny, wore a proud expression on his dog face.
Watching the interaction between Duke and Little ck, David shook his head helplessly. He picked up the crystallized remains and stored them in his spatial storage.
[You obtained a primary crystal, critical hit multiplier in effect! ]
[Congrattions, you obtained one hundred primary crystals! ]
[Attributes: None! ]
A faint smile appeared on David''s face, but the next moment, the sound of the system notification rang out again.
[Ding! ]
[Quest: Store Crystals! ]
[There is one month left until the first major zombie outbreak. Please collect mutated crystals and form your own team during this remaining time. All resources you store during this period will receive a hundredfold critical hit multiplier. Time remaining for the quest: 10 days, 10 hours, 5 minutes.]
Ten days, David frowned. Time passed quickly, and the original twenty-nine days had now be only ten days. And his team, the avablebat power, amounted to only seven members! And two that I can''t trust. One of them, a newly awakened junior esper.
Feeling a headacheing on, David rubbed his temples and nced at Duke, who was still sizing up Little ck. Before he could finish his sentence, David''s ears twitched, and he heard the sound of high heels approaching from behind.
Swish! David tightly gripped his alloy war de and swiftly turned around. The alloy war de stopped precisely one centimeter away from Monica''s neck. Monica looked at the alloy war de and smirked with satisfaction. Then, she noticed Duke not far away. "Not bad, newpanions in just a few days," Seizing the opportunity, she asked, "I wonder if you have..."
Before she could finish her sentence, David retracted his war de and coldly interrupted, "Not interested."
Watching David''s back, Monica silently wiped away a red mark on her neck. "There''s something you''ll definitely be interested in," she said, stepping on her high heels and catching up to David''s pace.
Duke heard the voice and looked over. He raised an eyebrow and straightened his posture. What a beauty! Monica''s figure had everything one could desire, exuding the charm of a mature woman.
Gulp, Duke swallowed a mouthful of saliva. David nced at him and said, "Stop staring. She can knock out three of you with one punch."
