Chapter 303 Deep Brotherhood
Chapter 303 Deep Brotherhood
Since David left the apocalypse and entered the wasteland world, the members of the Embers squad have been busy every day.? They were building the city while also recruiting other survivors and espers.? Sometimes they encountered challenging espers, but they managed to deal with them effectively.
After all, since David's departure, the strength of the few of them had become the strongest in the apocalypse.? Combined with the training they underwent during this time, each of them had crossed over to at least Level Ten, and there were even signs of reaching Level Eleven.
In this place, they were akin to kings.? Not to mention zombies and mutant creatures, even powerful espers would bow their heads humbly before them.? They knew that if they didn't act this way, when the big boss behind the Embers squad intervened, their survival might become questionable.
Soon, esper survivors from various cities sought the protection of the Embers squad and joined their ranks.? This led to an increasing number of members under David's command.? These people were distributed by Charles and others throughout the city, each with their own responsibilities.? Gradually, a strong and prosperous city emerged in the midst of the incongruous apocalypse.
On this day, Sally had just finished patrolling outside in her tank and returned to the base.? She took a piece of cake from the refrigerator and sat on the couch, gazing out of the window.
David had been gone for so long, and she missed him dearly.? Thinking about David, Sally suddenly found the cake in front of her not as sweet.
"Ugh!? When is David coming back?"? She sighed helplessly, and her gaze out the window turned somewhat anxious.? If David hadn't given her prior instructions, she probably would have already rushed to the wasteland world to look for him.? Unfortunately, for the sake of their Embers squad's city, she had to stay here with the others as David's support.

"Hey, miss the captain again?"
"With that lovesick look on your face, I'm guessing at least a dozen times a day?"
Arnold walked in with Fatso at this moment, each carrying a bottle of cold beer.
"None of your business!"? Sally glanced at the two of them and replied.
Fatso took a comfortable sip of his cold beer and shook his head, saying, "David is something else.? He's been gone so long and hasn't come back to see his brothers.? Forget Sally, even I'm starting to miss him."
"? You just want those weapons in the captain's warehouse, don't you?"? Arnold said bluntly, rolling his eyes at Fatso without holding back.? Seeing his lie being exposed, Fatso chuckled mischievously.
"We're all family;? why differentiate so much?? Aren't they all ours?? But come to think of it, I do miss our captain."? Saying that, Fatso let out a sigh.? He genuinely admired David from the bottom of his heart.
Originally, he thought that following David in the apocalypse would lead to a significant increase in strength and an end to worries about food and drink.? Unexpectedly, both of these goals were achieved, yet he felt somewhat unfulfilled.? This made him suddenly miss David.? Surprisingly, Fatso's eyes became slightly moist.? Seeing Fatso's melodramatic appearance, Arnold couldn't help but reminisce about the days he had spent with David.
"Are you guys crying for me?? I'm not dead."? Just as tears were about to fall from their eyes, a familiar voice sounded at the entrance of the base.? Everyone was startled and quickly looked towards the source of the voice.? To their astonishment, David had appeared at the entrance.
"Captain?? Am I...? am I dreaming?"? Arnold rubbed his eyes, thinking that he might be hallucinating from drinking too much beer.? Sally, sideward, looked at David in surprise.
David stood in place, looking at the confused expressions of the people before him, and couldn't help but chuckle.? He had only been gone for a short while, and they didn't recognize him?
After a moment, Sally was the first to react.? She leaped off the couch and excitedly rushed towards David.? She couldn't believe that the David she had been yearning for day and night was suddenly standing right in front of her.? She wanted to give him a hug, to feel the warmth of his chest again.? But just as Sally was about to open her arms and run towards David, a booming voice suddenly erupted in his ear!
"Captain!? You're finally back!? I've missed you!"? Fatso's voice rang out.
Sally suddenly felt a plump shadow pass by the corner of her eye, charging towards David.? Watching Fatso, whose entire body of fat was trembling, tears and snot running down his face, open his arms and rush towards him, David frowned, looking somewhat repulsed.? Just as Fatso was about to embrace David, Emlyn was instantly summoned by David and pulled out of his slumber.? Emlyn, who was still half-asleep, only felt a trembling figure rushing towards him.
The next second, Emlyn's small body was caught in the midst of Fatso's rolls of fat.? David quickly jumped back, narrowly avoiding Fatso's bear hug.? Looking at the little kid suddenly appearing in his arms, glaring at him fiercely, David was taken aback.? Without hesitation, Fatso picked Emlyn up from his embrace.
"Where did this little brat come from?? Get out of the way!"? Fatso said, tossing Emlyn aside, preparing to give David another "long time no see" hug.
"Fatso, watch me punch you!"
Helplessly, David could only raise his fist and threaten Fatso.? Only then did Fatso reluctantly stop.? However, his eyes towards David still remained affectionate, making David almost want to gag.
At this moment, Sally walked up to David and said, "You're back."? She spoke to him as if he had just returned home after being out for a while.
David extended his hand and gently ruffled Sally's head with a smile.? The long-lost sense of happiness spread in Sally's heart once again.? At the same time, others heard David's voice and quickly emerged from inside.
When they saw David, they couldn't help but burst into smiles.? Viola, who had been standing behind David, felt an inexplicable sense of loneliness when she saw David affectionately ruffling Sally's hair.? At the same time, she was also shocked by everything that was happening here.
Emlyn, who had been casually thrown aside by Fatso, stood up angrily at this point.? He hadn't realized what had happened before he was flung out by Fatso like a ball.? How could Emlyn tolerate this?
"Stupid Fatso!? Apologize to me!"? While everyone was exchanging greetings, Emlyn shouted angrily at Fatso.
At that moment, Fatso was happily standing by David's side, looking like they were close brothers.? Upon hearing Emlyn's voice, he paused for a moment and then looked around, asking, "What voice?? Who's talking?"
This only made Emlyn even angrier.? "I'm here!"? Emlyn jumped onto a table and yelled at Fatso.? Only then did Fatso notice Emlyn, who was standing with his hands on his hips, his gaze as sharp as a knife.? In an instant, Fatso burst into laughter.
