"..."

They chuckled at the doctor's loss of words. Eagan walked up to him and gently said

" Relaxed aren't bad guys, and we won't hurt you; all the zombies on this floor have been cleared, so it's safe to come out."

The doctor peeked his head out and checked left and right as if to see if the guys standing there weren't enough proof that the place was safe.

"Are you from the military?" The doctor asked now with a more stable voice than before when his voice felt like he was about to die.

" No, we aren't," Silver answered.

"If you aren't from the Military, how come you all carry guns? Are you criminals?"

" I thought we already established that we aren't bad guys?" Eagan asked

Shannon stepped forward to save the situation as she explained to the Doctor why they were there.

" Indeed, we are not from the military, but we are also not criminals; we are here to rescue survivors and put them safely until the military comes to rescue them. You can choose to go with us and not to; we won't force you."

The Doctor went inside the room and closed the door behind him

" Damn, I've never met someone with this many trust issues!" Ian joked

" We live in dangerous times, and everyone is taking preventive measures. Many people are fans of Apocalypse movies and stories, and many of those stories have bad guys bullying the weak, you know?" Preya explained

The door opened again, this time a little bit wider

" We'll go, but you must promise we'll be safe."

"Promises are meant to be broken, but we will try our best to keep you all safe."

"Thank you," the doctor put out his hand for a handshake with Matt.

"We are going to the next floor to check for other survivors. Help us gather the resources on this floor; Preya, your team will stay with them until Kyle's team arrives, " Matt instructed

" Got it!"

Once Matt's team left, Preya and her teammates with the survivors began gathering the resources on that floor, and as instructed, once Kyle's team came up, Preya's team went to join Matt's team.

" We're there any survivors on the lower floor?" Priya asked Kyle

" Yeah, there were; we gathered the resources on the lower floor and sent them to the bus."

" Sam, escort all survivors down. There aren't many resources here that are useable, so everyone grabs a box each and heads down to the bus," Kyle instructed.

The zombies died when Preya and her team made it to the next floor. Matt's team was boxing us the supplies when Priya's team got up the floor.

" How come I'm playing a losing game?"

His teammates looked at him, questioning his question.

"???"

" I challenged Eagan to see who would kill more zombies at the end of the raid, but now I know I can't win," Silver whined, and his teammate laughed.

"Lol, we can't decide the winner yet."

So far, the operation has been going smoothly without a hitch; true, the zombies here in the hospital are way more than the ones in the supermarket the previous day, but the operation is more straightforward than that of yesterday, probably due to their success yesterday boosted their morale and confidence. It also got them familiar with the weapons and also zombies.

Eagan wasn't carrying his pistol today. He had a rifle with him, upgraded it before leaving the base, and kept the firearms in his gun holder's belt as extras. His team was killed while the other two rescued and cleared supplies and zombies.

At the end of the operation, they rescued two professors, ten specialist doctors, five security guards, one newborn baby, four nurses, six older patients, and fifteen younger patients, none of which were bitten or sick. The doctors immediately took care of every injured one; they were forty-three survivors.

"There are other resources in the hospital storage; I can lead you there; I'm sure your shelter will need them," A female professor said

"Please lead the way; we'll all go to get them. It'll be quicker that way, and what about the mother of the newborn?" Matt asked after noticing it was a nurse carrying the baby.

" She died during delivery... I'll be responsible for him, "the nurse answered with a smile.

"That's good enough, not that we'll leave him behind even if you aren't responsible... let's get moving."

The professor led them to the storage, and they could break open the door after trying several keys that didn't open it. On the hold were different medical supplies ranging from medicines to equipment. It was a fruitful raid; there were losses, they rescued survivors, and they got more than enough medical supplies and personnel.

The truck returned to the base with the survivors from the hospital, with Kyle's team escorting the survivors.

Adam suggested they go to the high school near the hospital.

While walking toward the high school on the next block, they killed as many zombies as possible while avoiding being bitten by them, zombies.

YOU HAVE KILLED ZOMBIES

121,122,123,124,125...

"Hey, don't you get tired or at least have a limit or something?" Dexter from the princess' team asked Eagan, who was busy clearing out zombies

" Have you ever seen someone without a limit?" Silver asked Dexter

"..." Dexter kept quiet and continued on his journey

"I do have a limit, I haven't reached it yet, though, and as for the gun, I'm using the pistol to conserve the bullets for the riffle, and most importantly, one shot kills all the way," Eagan explains proudly that if it were a comic or an anime his nose would have been drawn thin and long pointing to the sky.

Silver scoffed at his pride.

" Yeah, you shoot like a professional, so what?" Silver asked, feigning jealousy.

"Did you do shoot practice without my knowledge, genius young master Eagan?" Silver raised his eyebrow at Eagan, who returned it with a playful glare

"I didn't"

"No, true! How are you better than me, then? We started learning together!"

" Beginner's luck?

"Fuck beginners' luck."

"Besides, I'm the genius, not you."

"You dimwit..." they bickered as they walked.

Since they needed to hide and kill Zombies on their way to the school while walking, the walk took twice the required time.

"We are here."

    "My... My lord! The gateway has been opened prematurely!" the one-horned demons steward rushed into the dark, cold palace sweating heavily, he knelt before the throne and reported "The energy gathered around the gate is not enough to transport the army and you, my lord.""Why did death servant open the gate prematurely?" a loud baritone voice asked from up the throne, his brows furrowed "Was there an order to open the gate?" a two-horned giant demon dressed in heavy armour, he is the demon army general Beelzebub, he knelt on one leg to salute the king "The location where the gate was placed on earth was suddenly attacked, the death servant thought there would be enough casualty to fill up the energy so we didn't interfere but only two people died and the others were just injured..." the one-horned demon explained regretfully "How incompetent!" the general declared "How can you assume in such a situation! Even when you are sure there will be a casualty to avoid stories that touch th

  • Let's face the Unknown

    Large stone chunks fall all around them, barely passing over their heads as they ran out of the building, The Wereman carried Audrey on his shoulder, running as fast as they could, On their way out they met Ian, Priya and Shannon coming to find them upon seeing everyone was fine they ran towards the exit. People dressed in white lab coats as well as new test subjects that were brought in ran around in total disarray to find the closest exit, their faces ashen with urgency and fear. "We don't have time to rescue the researchers but we'll lead the civilians out with us, Brett and Milo guide them to the exit quickly!" Eagan instructed. Brett and Milo following instructions began leading the civilians out of the base with much effort, Milo leading on the front while Brett guard them from the back. A Mechanical voice can't out from the speakers "The centre is under attack, all the exits will be shut down and every data deleted, Self-destruct will commence in 5...4...3.." "Fuck, what

  • Retribution

    "All you did was for your fucking entertainment! Stop fucking lying to yourself, and feeling self-righteous!" Silver felt so angry that he nearly dash forward to bash the older man's head on the wall continuously. Eagan signalled to him to stand down and with a loud 'hmph' he sat on the floor with a gun sitting on his lap "Even in death, you won't feel repentant about the evil you've committed, and killing you is letting you off easily. I'll make sure you experience a life where you'd wish for death every hour of the day! That will be your retribution" Eagan stated and brought out a handcuff to restrain him before handing him over to an angry Silver and an excited Milo. "Dr Martins should be done let's go out and see, Ian, Shannon and Priya go down and destroy the large circle, do it in the next five minutes" Eagan led the way out of the training room as they dragged out Audrey with his knees kissing the floor. A loud heart-wrenching roar pierced through the air, making people t

  • Bullshit

    "Clang! Swish!" Sounds of metal clashing filled the room as both parties attacked one another, aiming for each other's vital spot and defending against the attack with no one having an advantage over the other as they were both evenly matched both in speed and attack force. Eagan feigned an attack towards Gabe's legs to distract him, using the opportunity he retreated to create some distance between the two, He spits out a mouthful of blood and wiped his mouth with his bare hands smearing his face with the permanent the face 'Fuck! He is a tough nut to crack! Can't believe he has been holding back during training! Killing him will prove more difficult than expected' Eagan thought as he gripped the hilt of his sword tighter "Your killing intent is so enticing! Hahaha!" Gabe laughed as he charged forward to close the distance between the two "I can't help but want to indulge you a little bit, don't worry I won't kill you after all of us are still useful to the boss! It tastes so pu

  • Cure

    "Is there a way to save those who have been mutated? Since the mutation happened from a serum if we study the serum shouldn't we be able to find a cure?" Eagan asked Dr Martins curiously"Some of us have tried, several times, but we couldn't find the properties of the serum not to talk of a cure. We are still studying it though we should be able to find something in the long run" Dr Martins explained dejectedly, his voice shaking as the image of their failed experiments flashed through his mind. Eagan nodded and then went back to laying down, he stared at the ceiling deep in thought, he wanted to help Dr Martins somehow and even though he knows that killing the evil woman will do justice but he felt he could do more, besides he hoped that there was a way to create a cure. 'Are we going to leave all the thousands of people to die? It has crossed my mind more than once, there should be some kind of cure, I mean a permanent cure or something..."(There is) the system announced silently

  • Back Story

    "Dr Martin, don't tell me you are feeling reluctant about the test subjects. Too bad the effect isn't reversible." Dr Finn teased; she placed the blood samples she had just gotten from the test subjects into a silver tray and waved her assistants away. She turned to the middle-aged male doctor with a smile that failed to reach her eye; it is obvious she is trying to pick a fight with him."Dr Finn, it is truly regrettable that the effect of the serum isn't reversible; if it were, you would have been able to 'cure' your useless son, who is neither useful to humanity nor to the 'greater cause' you preach about. I happen to be fond of the new serum and its effect, so permit me to continue with my research; I won't see you out!" Dr Martins continued with the data he was gathering.more like putting up a front about gathering data,"Hmph! Do you think our words are enough to make me angry? I'll have you know you are gravely wrong; he has always been a useless and good-for-nothing son, and
