Liam and Bradon talked for a while about crystal nuclei, and when they saw that they didn't get an answer, they put it off.Not long after they settled down for a bit, after they took a rest, a distant sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the mall. This caught Liam's and Brandon's attention. Liam immediately frowned because of the noise, and when he turned his eyes, a man came sprinting towards them, fear etched across his face. Behind that man, seven mindless zombies staggered, drawn by the sounds of footsteps and the scent of fresh prey.Mindless creatures cannot smell, but when there are wounds, they know if there is food or not.Liam crouched under his breath. He didn't think that after they fought there would be something else, with the situation intensifying rapidly. Liam's chest continued to pound."Brandon, that fucking bastard owns a company," Liam said under his breath.He clenched his fist and didn't know what to feel. He was still tired; he hadn't rested much, and now
After their brief flirting, Liam and Brandon started to move. As the two of them walked towards the grocery store aisles, their footsteps were echoing inside the eerie, quiet place. Liam couldn't help but look around because he felt like someone was watching him, and at any moment someone would jump to attack him. Deep inside Liam's heart, he knows that it was just his paranoia.Liam glanced around; his eyes were eyeing a potential danger as well as scanning the shelves for essential supplies. "We need to make sure to grab enough non-perishable food items," Liam started, and he looked back to see Brandon's expression. "We need water, some items such as refrigerators, kitchen utensils, and medical supplies." He stopped and then stood up in front of a shelf. "It's crucial for our survival. After all, I discovered something."Brandon frowned. "You discovered something?"Liam nodded slowly and then approached Brandon. "While I was sleeping, my consciousness went inside my space dimension.
As Liam and Brandon continued their silent scavenging, filling their cart with essential supplies, the atmosphere grew tense. Liam and Brandon did their own work silently. Even the group they met earlier was not making any noise. Liam, while looking around, discreetly stashed three out of five noodle packets into his space dimension, ensuring his actions went unnoticed.While Liam is putting some food in his space dimension, Brandon is doing his best to block the sight of the camera. No, because they know there are two people inside the control room. Brandon isn't the only person who knows where the control room is, after all.The electricity has gone out a week after the end of the world. The electricity that is running right now inside the mall is the mall's emergency power. That's why there's still power inside, and the air conditioning as well as the lights are still on, which attracts countless mindless creatures during the night. Especially where the emergency power is. After al
When Liam calmed Brandon down, they immediately left and walked away from that group. Nothing good will happen if they just continue there. Also, they are attracting too many zombies; they don't want to fight soon.Liam and Brandon resumed their scavenging for supplies, diligently filling their cart with essential items. They don't miss anything. Everything that can be taken and that can be used in the future is placed by Liam in his space dimension. Especially the things that other people ignore, such as tissue, toothpaste, toothbrushes, and even pillows and blankets.Both Liam and Brandon's feet are light, which means that they don't have any intention of attracting any other unnecessary things. They are determined to finish their own mission.As they approached the makeshift checkout counter, Liam couldn't help but feel a lingering concern for Brandon's emotional state. He doesn't know if he should be happy because they don't have to pay anymore or because of what is happening now.
Brandon laughed softly when he saw Liam hurrying to change his clothes."Liam, it's not because we need to leave right away; you need to hurry." Brandon approaches him and rubs the dry towel in Liam's hair. "You should take your time.""But--""You don't have to worry." He gave a quick kiss and smiled. "You still have soap foam in your neck," he added.Liam immediately stood up and entered the bathroom again. When he saw Liam act like that, Brandon gave out a sigh of relief. At least somehow, he could still feel at ease whenever he was with his lover.Brandon went out again to look and keep an eye on the surroundings. If he ever sees something suspicious or a horde of zombies coming in their direction, he'll surely go run in his driver's seat and drive as fast as he can.However, the sound of a rumble from an approaching engine drew Brandon's attention as he stood outside of the bus and surveyed the surroundings. For some reason, in his mind, he knows that the owner of the sounds of t
After hearing those words, Liam's face paled. His heart pounded so crazy that it wasn't easy to conceal.Brandon, sitting beside Liam, couldn't help but notice the tremors in Liam's hands and the unease in his eyes. He could tell by just the breathing itself. Sensing something amiss, Brandon gently placed a hand on Liam's hands. He squeezed it a little, and that made Liam scratch his head."Hey, Liam," Brandon called him softly, "is everything alright? You seem a bit off."The way Brandon coaxed his man, Hannah, as well as his boyfriend, Marcky, had goosebumps. They've known Brandon for a long time, and he couldn't even smile. His eyes were cold, as if he were ready to be his meal. Right now, seeing him soft and trying to calm his lover is a rare and very impressive moment for the two of them.Liam took a deep breath, trying to compose himself. "It's just..." he paused, biting his lower lip. "Thinking about what Hannah said, about someone missing something important. What if that pers
The university grounds were eerily quiet, the remnants of a once-bustling campus now haunted by wandering, mindless creatures. As Liam sees the mindless zombies, he can't help but increase his nervousness. Even though he doesn't know those students, they are his younger brother's schoolmates, and who knows if some of them are his classmates?As Liam, Brandon, Hannah, and Marcky cautiously made their way towards the main building, the distant groans of the creatures echoed through the air.Hannah clicked her tongue. Even though she is ready to fight, it doesn't mean that she wants to fight. After all, she had been fighting since the day she arrived in Eldo City. If it weren't for his brother being here, she wouldn't have been here. However, at some point, for Hannah, she could see this as training as well.Brandon, as a leader, took the lead, his keen eyes scanning the surroundings for any signs of movement. Even a small movement doesn't escape Brandon's eyes, so before the mindless zo
The group cautiously moved through the dimly lit corridors of the university, each step accompanied by the ominous sounds of their steps in the building. Luckily, it wasn't as loud as it is, or else they might have invited trouble. Suddenly, the atmosphere was shattered as a horde of mindless creatures on the second floor lost their footing and tumbled down the stairs, crashing right in front of the group. Hannah and Liam couldn't help but gasp, and their jaws dropped.Reacting swiftly, Brandon summoned his metal and wind abilities. Metal blades swirled around him, slicing through the air, while gusts of wind sent the fallen creatures stumbling backward. Marcky, not one to be left behind, unleashed bolts of purple lightning, each strike finding its mark with deadly precision.Liam, being with military personnel, developed his alertness much better than before. He could finally move, almost as soon as he got over the shock.Meanwhile, Hannah, on the other hand, realized the limitations
