Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Seeing Peng Le's reaction, a cold smile crossed Alex's face.

People like Peng Le, driven by a nearly fanatic pursuit of strength and power, were almost insane. The more someone lived in the midst of power struggles, the crazier their pursuit of greater strength and higher power became. Therefore, Alex concluded that Peng Le's biggest weakness was his intense desire for stronger abilities and greater authority.

"Yes," Alex nodded, his expression serious. "Originally, I shouldn't have revealed this, but since I've chosen to follow you, Peng Ge, we need to be more united. Only if the strength of our third team becomes stronger can we obtain more resources and greater power."

Pausing for a moment, Alex continued, "I know of a miraculous place in Jiangcheng City. Once ordinary people enter, they come out as mutants! We... accidentally stumbled upon it, and that's how all of us became mutants. However, the success rate is not one hundred percent. There were eighteen of us when we entered, and two with weaker constitutions turned into zombies..."

"What?!!" Peng Le exclaimed in horror, his eyes gleaming with excitement. He grabbed Alex's hand and stared at him in shock, confirming once again, "Is there really such a place?!! You can become a mutant just by entering?!!"

Alex nodded seriously, affirming, "Yes! I can guarantee it! And, that place probably hasn't been discovered by anyone else yet."

"That's fantastic!!! Is it true??? Have you not told anyone else about this?" Peng Le anxiously looked at Alex.

Alex shook his head, "No, I only told you."

"Good! Very good, Alex! You've achieved a great merit this time! As long as you lead us to that place, you'll be my true brother! In the future, we share fortune and adversity together! After all the members of our third team become mutants, with our strength, we can definitely compete with Guangbei Jia and Lv Weijiang.

By then, I guarantee you wealth and prosperity!"

"Thank you for the promotion! I'm deeply grateful! Time is of the essence. I think we should hurry and take the brothers there! If we delay, and someone else discovers it, or that magical power disappears, then we'll be..."

Alex pretended to express concern but was cut off by Peng Le, who eagerly raised his hand and shouted, "Brothers! Emergency situation! A brother has found a great place! It's full of beautiful women and precious supplies! We're going to get rich this time! Get the hell ready, we're leaving immediately!"

As soon as Peng Le spoke, these people seemed to be injected with adrenaline, rushing out of their respective dorms, shouting and clamoring. Soon, over sixty members of the third team and the fifteen led by Alex had assembled. Under the leadership of Alex and Peng Le, they drove modified cars out of the base.

"What are Peng Le and this newcomer Alex up to?"

Lv Bao frowned, watching the convoy of the third team leave the shelter, unable to suppress his curiosity.

Equally curious were Guangbei Jia, Ke, and others.

"This Alex just joined the third team, and they haven't even settled him properly. Yet Peng Le can't wait to take them to collect supplies? What is Peng Le up to?!" Guangbei Jia looked at the long convoy on the surveillance screen, frowning and muttering to herself.

Ke, with a resolute expression, said, "This Alex is definitely not simple, but he's a real man, I like him. I think we should find a way to win him over. Our current situation is already very dangerous. Zhang Jingwu and the people from the Public Security Management Team have joined Lv Weijiang's group.

The only forces we can fully control now are the City Defense Team and the first team of the Supplies Collection Team. We need to find a way to get out of this situation as soon as possible, or else, sooner or later..."

"I understand, Captain Ke. I will figure something out. Keep an eye on the City Defense Team, if we lose them again, we will have nothing left!" Guangbei Jia said with a frowning and gloomy expression.

"Guang General, if things really don't work out, maybe we should reconsider our current strategy... Since most people are against continuing the search for survivors, we might as well temporarily stop... After all, we already have enough people in our base..." Ke cautiously suggested, looking into Guangbei Jia's eyes with admiration.

Whether before or after the apocalypse, Ke and Guangbei Jia were good friends. Moreover, Ke's feelings for Guangbei Jia were not just at the level of friendship.

In the past, the two had a significant disparity in their ranks, but now, their identities and positions were almost equal. In fact, Guangbei Jia even had to rely on Gudian Ke.

Several times, Ke had wanted to express his feelings to Guangbei Jia.

However, for Ke, who had never experienced emotions and only knew about battles, taking this step was extremely difficult. Moreover, Guangbei Jia had always maintained a friendship with him, never indicating any further interest.

"Captain Ke! Are you also such a selfish person? If only people like us survive, facing so many zombies outside, how long do you think we can last? Can you really bear to watch so many survivors outside slowly die in misery, devoured by zombies?" Guangbei Jia said with some anger. "Have you forgotten our identities before the apocalypse?

Protecting the people, saving survivors—aren't these responsibilities for the outside? Or have you forgotten our oath?"

"What does it matter even in the apocalypse? It's precisely because of the apocalypse that we should step forward! We should uphold the law! Protect the people!"

"But... but our current situation..." Ke's face turned red, showing a complex expression.

"No 'buts'! Even if it's difficult, we must persevere! Everything we do is not for ourselves but for the vast population, for humanity! And do you really think their advocated hierarchy system is feasible? It's complete enslavement of other survivors! Even in the apocalypse, people should treat each other equally!"

Guangbei Jia spoke with conviction to Ke. At this moment, she radiated a saintly glow.

"Alright!" Ke lowered his head in shame, no longer insisting.
