Chapter 207: Can You Hear It?
After arguing for a long time with his two friends, they finally decided to pass through the city center, even though there was a possibility that something unpredictable would happen to them.
However, Theodore did not mind because this was not his decision alone, but their decision together, just like the rules they had made he would not complain about anything that would happen later.
"Since we’ve decided to pass through the city center, I hope you’ll be prepared to fight no matter what happens," Theodore said, reminding his two friends that this trip could turn dangerous.
"No problem, I’ll shoot them with this arrow," Geoffrey replied while rubbing the crossbow that was always by his side.
"Isn’t that mine?" Roxanne interjected from behind while looking at Geoffrey skeptically.
Geoffrey only grinned when he heard his older sister’s words; technically, this crossbow did belong to Roxanne because hers was hit by a branch in the forest at that time and shattered.
"Come on, you didn’t intend to use that crossbow. Besides, I’m better at using this crossbow," Geoffrey retorted, smirking at Roxanne, then at the end, with a flick of his tongue, to mock Roxanne.
"Yikes! Try if I seriously learn archery first. I’ll definitely be better than you!" Roxanne also glared at Geoffrey, not to be outdone by her younger brother.
Theodore, who was accustomed to hearing the siblings’ ramblings, only chuckled softly. Then Theodore thought of giving the dagger he had bought from the system store earlier to Roxanne to guard himself.
Besides, Theodore didn’t use the dagger anymore, so it was better to give the dagger to Roxanne so that the dagger could be used and not just settle in his sacred dimension.
"Already, already. I have one unused weapon you can use, Roxanne." Theodore then took out his dagger from the sacred dimension and gave it to Roxanne.
Roxanne’s eyes sparkled when she saw the dagger that Theodore gave her, "Are you sure you’re giving this dagger to me?" Roxanne, who was holding the sword in her hand, was mesmerized when she saw it.
"Yes, just use it; I’m not using it anyway," Theodore replied, nodding his head. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"Thank you, I’ll put it to good use," Roxanne replied happily, accepting the dagger.
Roxanne also showed off the dagger that Theodore had given her to Geoffrey. And, of course, Geoffrey immediately scowled when he saw how Roxanne boasted about it in front of him like that.
After that, they chatted casually while enjoying their journey. Somehow, they realized that there were only a few zombies wandering around when they entered the downtown area of D City.
Whereas when they entered the area of City D they saw quite a lot of zombies, the situation was the same as in City A. Theodore felt bad when he saw the atmosphere in the city center.
"Do you guys feel strange about this place?" Theodore finally expressed his doubts to the others.
"It feels more like a dead city than a city filled with zombies. Where are the zombies?" Roxanne was already close to the window at this time, intending to look for the zombies that usually roamed around the city.
"I just realized when I heard Roxanne’s words. Since we entered the downtown area, there are fewer and fewer zombies," Geoffrey said after noticing the strange things around him.
"I don’t know why I have a bad feeling," Theodore said with a serious face.
"Usually, when it’s too quiet like this, there’s something going on," Roxanne replied while shaking her head, hoping that they wouldn’t have to fight.
Although the atmosphere around them was a little strange, Theodore still drove the car following the route that Geoffrey had made. And when they were about to pass the town square area, they realized that the atmosphere in the town was starting to look crowded.
Crowded here refers to the many humans walking around the city, and there are no zombies to be seen there.
"Why are there so many people just wandering around in the middle of the city? Aren’t they afraid of being attacked by zombies?" Geoffrey glared in disbelief as he looked at the situation around the lively town square.
"We’d better observe the situation in this place first. I don’t know why I find it hard to trust people after what happened before," Roxanne replied with a grimace, not wanting to make any hasty decisions.
"Yes, it’s better that way. We still don’t know what’s going on in this city," Theodore said, nodding his head in agreement.
And the more Theodore drove the car, he realized that the atmosphere in the downtown area of City D was similar to the situation in City Base A. But, Theodore was sure that City D did not have a base, so he was a little surprised how the people in City D could make their city safe from zombies like this.
Finally, Theodore could hear strange sounds from a distance, sounds like people were fighting. It was just that Theodore couldn’t see what was happening yet, given that his hearing became sharper as his level and status increased.
Theodore could hear the sound in the distance. Curious about the sound, he increased the speed of his car to see what was really happening in this city.
When Theodore’s car arrived at the town square, he could see that there were two groups of people brawling there. They were fighting each other until one of them died.
Theodore and the others who saw this terrible thing were shocked; the brawl was really very chaotic, and the range was getting farther and farther. Theodore quickly stopped his car, not wanting to get any closer to the mob.
"Shit! We’ll have to go around at this rate." Theodore quickly controlled the car’s steering wheel to turn around as the brawling mob started to get closer to them.
"What the hell are they doing!" Geoffrey also looked at the horde in horror. Honestly, he would rather fight with zombies than with humans like them.
"Roxanne quickly uses the magic scroll to protect this car. I don’t think I’ll have time to leave this place!" Theodore immediately ordered Roxanne to activate their magic scroll.
Roxanne quickly obeyed and she immediately took out the magic scroll that was on her. Roxanne hurriedly chanted the spell inside the magic scroll, her heart beating fast with anxiety. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Their situation was agitated at that time because the mob of brawling people was getting closer to their car. Not only that, those people also did not have good intentions when they saw their car.
They raised their weapons and started attacking the car that Theodore and the others were traveling in.
