Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system

Chapter 317 Edmund ?

At this moment, the post-apocalyptic world remained just as desolate and eerily quiet as ever.? David had hunted down most of the zombie-like creatures since his arrival.? Even the five dominant super-beasts that ruled the wilderness had fallen to his hands, further adding to the desolation of the world.

Even though the occasional zombie-like creature roamed the area, they did so with extreme caution, constantly scanning their surroundings.? They were fearful of losing their lives to David's sudden appearance.

David had become a taboo in this post-apocalyptic world, a world that grew increasingly barren each day.? However, amidst the bleak and barren landscape, there was a faint sense of difference in the air—a feeling of impending conflict.

David was quick to sense this change in the atmosphere.? He could even smell the stench of blood and decay within it.? He knew that his actions in slaying the Devouring Demon Centipedes had been discovered by the Zerg, and they were likely preparing for an attack.

However, David displayed no signs of nervousness.? Even though he was about to face the most formidable foes in the post-apocalyptic world, his face remained calm, as if he did not regard the Zerg as a formidable threat.

During this period, David also took some time to return to the post-apocalyptic world and distribute some of the treasures he had acquired in the wilderness to the members of Ember's team.? He also upgraded his base in the post-apocalyptic world to a king-level base, making it the most formidable and dominant structure in this world.

In this relatively peaceful period, David seemed to no longer roam the wasteland hunting zombie-like creatures.? Instead, he sat on the couch in his base, sipping red wine and coffee.? It was as if the dangerous post-apocalyptic world before him had turned into a normal world.

David lived like a human enjoying the pleasures of life.? As David put it, "Life is short, so make the most of it."? Watching David's daily contentment, Viola was filled with questions.? During this period, she had been focused on strengthening herself and adapting to the newfound power she had acquired.? She hunted zombie-like creatures of various ranks every day, determined not to be a burden to David as she had been during their previous encounter.

Viola, who had fainted with just a glance from the Devouring Demon Centipedes, was resolute in her decision to not slow David down anymore.? She was aware of the current situation in the post-apocalyptic world, with the ever-present threat of a Zerg attack.? She felt that everyone should be on edge.? After all, the Zerg were the undisputed rulers of the post-apocalyptic world, and their strength was not to be underestimated.

However, she dared not question David about his actions.? She could only continue her daily routine of hunting zombie-like creatures, believing that David had his own plan.

One morning, in a dense forest ten kilometers from the base, Viola had just slain a mutated gray wolf and a blue wolf.? As she prepared to venture deeper into the forest in search of more targets, she heard a faint rustling sound behind her.? Instantly, she became cautious, gripping her iron fan tightly, and asked in a low voice, "Who's there?"

At the same time, Viola kept a vigilant eye on the dense forest behind her.? Faintly, she sensed the presence of a human.? This surprised her because, in the post-apocalyptic world, she had only encountered two humans besides David and Clive.

After a moment, the rustling sound occurred again.? Viola tightly held her iron fan, her gaze locked on a specific direction.? Just then, a man with long hair, a slender figure, and a delicate complexion emerged.? He looked at the corpses of several mutant beasts at Viola's feet and chuckled awkwardly before raising his eyes to meet Viola's.

"Um...? hero...? no!? Lady hero, spare me!? I have no idea how I ended up in this strange place.? Could you please tell me where we are?"? The man nervously rubbed his hands and looked at Viola, wearing a respectful smile.? At first glance, he appeared quite ordinary, even his aura seemed exceptionally weak, with nothing remarkable about him.

Viola frowned as she observed the man.? She knew that ordinary humans couldn't possibly enter this realm.? So, how did this man end up here?? Could he be a formidable individual like David?? However, Viola couldn't sense any strength from him.? So, she asked, "What's your name, and why are you following me?"

The man smiled again, still nervously rubbing his hands.? "I'm Edmund.? I was actually asleep, and the next thing I knew, I woke up here.? Seeing this desolate place around me was quite unsettling."

He continued, a hint of fear in his voice, "Just when I didn't know what to do, I heard some commotion here.? So, I hurried over, seeking help.? And that's when I found you."

"Are you...? an esper?"? The man finally asked.? He had clearly witnessed Viola's battle with the monsters and deduced that she must be an esper, which relieved his anxiety, not realizing that Viola was not human.

Listening to Edmund's story, Viola pondered for a moment.? She still had many questions about his appearance, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what troubled her.? She thought about how both he and David were humans, possibly lost in this wasteland world.? Maybe it would be better to let David handle this situation.? So, she nodded and said, "I'll take you to see someone who can help you leave this place."

With that, she got up and started walking toward the edge of the forest.? Seeing this, Edmund quickly followed.? Along the way, he continued to bombard Viola with various questions, displaying his curiosity, while Viola answered him with indifference and some regret over her decision.

Viola couldn't help but wonder why Edmund, a seemingly powerless human, could be so talkative.? Compared to David, they were worlds apart.? She had agreed to take him to see David out of pity, but she wasn't sure if David would scold her for it.

However, now that they were nearing the base, Viola decided not to dwell on it.? She believed that David was a gentle person who wouldn't blame her.

Soon, Viola and Edmund arrived at the city gate.? The Kui tribe guards, seeing their queen return, quickly opened the gate.? However, their expressions turned puzzled when they saw a human following Viola.

Viola led Edmund into the palace hall.? David was still leisurely savoring his wine, his hand caressing the circular jade pendant.
