Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Having completed all these tasks, Alex had depleted all his Doomsday Coins. He inspected the progress of the estate development once again and was quite satisfied to see wooden stakes and iron wire fences being erected around the valley surrounding the estate.

The Legion of the Plundering Tyrant, led by the Zombie Overlord, was already fully deployed. Under Alex's command, they were scattered in the dense forests around the estate and the valley, blocking the entry of wandering zombies.

Under heavy defenses, this estate had become a sanctuary in the apocalypse.

While listening to the reports from the mutated women, Alex enjoyed the company of these mutated beauties to the fullest. After a satisfying time, he received a report from Professor Yang Zhimei through the communication device.

"Dear, the people you sent over have completed the experiments. Their physical qualities are excellent. Six of them successfully mutated, and one of them manifested a special ability."

"Very good! Have them brought up, and I will make further arrangements. What ability did the mutated person with special powers develop?" Alex asked through the communication device.

He was highly satisfied with Yang Zhimei's efficiency in handling tasks. However, compared to technical matters with Yang Zhimei, Alex preferred spending time with the mutated beauties, Lan Siruo and Qian Qian. Therefore, he didn't inform Yang Zhimei about his activities within the estate.

Upon hearing Alex's praise, Yang Zhimei felt excited and reported earnestly, "The evolved ability is quite unique. Right after the mutation, this esper used telekinesis. We almost let him escape!"

"The person's psychic ability seems to be related to space and enables short-distance teleportation in an extremely short time. However, this individual's mental strength doesn't appear to be very strong. The teleportation distance is quite short, and it seems that it can only be used once in a while.

The person who teleported ended up just moving to the underground second floor and was promptly caught by the guards over there."

"In addition, although this mutated individual gained an ability, the enhancement of physical qualities is not significant. Considering our previous encounters, I believe mutated individuals can be classified into two types: one with psychic abilities and another with enhanced physical strength. Particularly powerful ones exhibit a combination of both types."

After listening to Yang Zhimei's analysis, Alex nodded in agreement. There was indeed a distinction among mutated individuals.

However, at present, the abilities of espers seemed comparatively weak, unable to match up to the mutated individuals with enhanced physical strength. Nevertheless, Alex found the esper with teleportation ability very intriguing.

If he could master this extraordinary skill of teleportation, many tasks could be significantly facilitated.

"Yuanyuan, arrange for someone to receive the new mutated individuals sent by the laboratory and bring them to me," Alex ordered the woman, Yuanyuan, who was beside him and had just finished serving him.

"Yes!" Yuanyuan bowed and left. Soon, she returned with puppet soldiers escorting the mutated individuals to Alex.

After conducting some simple tests on these people, Alex found that, apart from the esper who retained memories, only 50% of their loyalty was preserved. The loyalty of the others had already reached 90% or higher.

Alex changed his mind and decided to send these people back to the advanced City of Darkness for enslavement. Except for the esper with the retained memory, the others had lost their memories, and although their skills and experiences from before the mutation remained intact, memories of their pre-mutated lives were extremely blurry.

If all these individuals were turned into mindless puppets who only obeyed commands, it would obviously be disadvantageous for Alex's next plans. Instead of spending time turning them into mere puppets, it would be better to fully enslave them.

Compared to puppets with no remaining thoughts, these enslaved individuals would better serve as a cover for Alex's plans and assist in the conspiracy to take over the military base. After experiencing a passionate night in the mansion, Alex returned to the advanced City of Darkness early in the morning, driving the Annihilator Armor Tank.

After releasing the newly mutated individuals from the dungeon, Alex examined each one. Except for the esper, all the others had reached 100% enslavement. Alex squinted at the esper, noticing that not only had his loyalty not increased in the slightest, but it had also decreased to 0%, which intrigued him.

Considering the powerful spatial abilities, this individual's psychic attributes should be quite high. However, even high psychic attributes would succumb to enslavement once hope and resistance will were lost, albeit taking a longer time.

The only possible explanation was that this esper had a strong resistance will and a deep-seated hope still sustaining him.

"Do you think you can escape?" Alex asked the esper, looking at him with a cold sneer.

The esper glared at Alex with hatred, venomously saying, "You devil! We have no grievances with you, why do you treat us like this?! Just wait! I will come back for revenge!"

After finishing his words, the esper burst into a maniacal laugh and instantly activated his teleportation ability, saying, "Goodbye! The next time we meet will be when we flatten your refuge! Hahaha..."

However, the esper's laughter abruptly stopped, followed by a horrified wail. Staring dumbfounded at his unmoving body in the same spot, the esper was bewildered.

"What... what's going on... Yesterday, everything went smoothly! Why can't I activate it today? What's happening? My psychic power has already recovered!" The mutant shouted in hysterics, his face filled with disbelief and unwillingness.

Alex smirked disdainfully, indifferent to the chaos. In the City of Darkness, everything would be under his control. The esper's attempt to escape using teleportation in front of him was nothing short of a joke.

At the moment the esper tried to activate his ability, the City of Darkness sensed hostility and easily locked onto him. Even taking a single step outside was impossible.

"Do you want to crush my City of Darkness?" A voice, mocking and cold, suddenly sounded in the esper's ears. Turning around, he saw the devilish figure of Alex with a sardonic smile, holding a knife that appeared out of nowhere.

"I'm willing to join you! My Lord!! Just spare my life! I am willing to pledge allegiance to you! My abilities will undoubtedly be of great use to you in the future!" The esper shouted desperately, his voice hoarse.
