LOGINJoe and Lance exchanged glances before turning to look at Clara at the same time. Even so, they were still curious about the person Clara was talking about. “I know you two must be thinking all sorts of strange things.” “No. I'm just wondering how something like that could happen,” Joe asked. “She was married to a CEO, but her husband betrayed her. He even gave her a fake necklace. After that, she kept to herself and eventually decided to separate from her husband. She disappeared for several weeks,” Clara revealed. “Then what happened?” Lance asked curiously. “Suddenly, she showed up and asked me to meet her. After that, she told me that an apocalypse was coming and would destroy the city,” Clara continued. “Is she a fortune-teller?” “At first, I didn't believe her. I thought she had lost her mind because her marriage had fallen apart just like that. But everything she said actually came true.” Clara stood up. “Just look at NorthVale. It's destroyed... completely devastated,
“Rikes!” Liam called out.Rikes turned around and saw Liam holding up a telephone receiver.“The call has connected. Talk to them,” Liam continued.Rikes stepped closer and took the receiver Liam offered him. He then responded to the call.Rikes informed them of his location and described their situation in detail.Meanwhile, in the southern part of the city...“Sir, we've received a connected call. It seems to be from the special forces unit that was previously assigned to the city center.”Hearing this, Hopper immediately stepped forward. He took the device and tried to speak.“Rikes, thank goodness you're still alive,” Hopper said, his voice filled with relief.On the other end of the line, Rikes explained that they had lost seven more members. They were also trapped inside the communications room. They couldn't get out because there were too many zombies, and their ammunition was running low.“Hang in there. I'll find a way to get you out,” Hopper replied.The connection suddenly
“Are you a lawyer?” Jade asked after learning the truth from James. James had no personal grudge against Dr. Markus. It was just that Dr. Markus worked for Jason, and James had a problem with Jason. Ah, no. More precisely, Jason was his client. “Yes. I'm a lawyer who once handled Jason's divorce case,” James explained. Jade immediately raised her head and turned to look at James. “So, you know Alice?” The glass stopped midway through the air, still not touching James's lips. He turned toward Jade. “Alice... She's my best friend.” “Wow, why does everything seem to be such a coincidence?” Jade muttered. “You know Alice too?” James asked Jade. Jade sighed. “It's a long story.” She placed the can of drink on the table. “But that's not what's important right now.” Jade raised her head and glanced at Victor and Vivian, who were sitting apart from the three of them. Lately, the two of them seemed to be keeping themselves busy without wanting to share their thought
“I already told you I exchanged that necklace for Alice’s...” That was the same explanation Vivian always gave whenever Victor asked her the same question. However, Victor never seemed to believe anything Vivian told him. “We need to get out of here immediately!” Victor insisted. Vivian turned to look at her father in disbelief. She no longer knew what was going through his mind. After all, she knew how dangerous things were outside. Even the slightest mistake could turn them into zombies. “You mean you want to leave and separate from the others?” Vivian probed further. “Why?” Victor asked, turning to look at his daughter. “Do you still want to stay here?” he continued. “Father...” Vivian stood up and turned to face Victor. “Do you even realize how bad things are out there? I’m sure we won’t survive if those things chase us.” “Vivian!” Victor stood up. “I want to retrieve that necklace. It’s the only thing that can save this world from destruction.” “What do you mean?” Vivian
Red and Liam stood beside Rikes. It turned out they had entered a communications room filled with various communication devices. The three of them exchanged glances. This was exactly what they had been looking for. “Check whether those devices are still working,” Rikes ordered. Red and Liam stepped forward to inspect all the equipment in the room, while Rikes approached a cabinet. He opened it, and the moment he saw what was inside, he swallowed hard. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he stared at its contents. “Hey, guys! Come over here!” Rikes shouted. Red and Liam hurried over to him. Both of them were equally stunned by what they saw inside the cabinet. Red even slapped his own cheek to make sure he wasn't dreaming. “Is this real?” Liam reached inside and touched one of the items. “It is real. I can actually touch it.” He grabbed a bottle of drinking water and immediately opened it. He took three long gulps, feeling the cool liquid run down his throat. “This water is really cold and
The thunderous growls behind the glass door grew louder as it began to crack under the pressure of the zombies pushing against it. Clara looked panicked, while Joe and Lance were still trying to figure out what to do.“Guys, hurry up!” Clara shouted.Joe stood up and turned to look at Clara. However, his attention was drawn elsewhere. He spotted a zombie standing behind the door, its eyes wide open as it stared directly at him.The zombie glared at him with its mouth hanging open, blood dripping from its lips.“Eww...!” Joe scrunched up his face in disgust at the sight of the zombie.Joe’s reaction only enraged the zombie. It roared and pounded against the door. Clara, who was standing right in front of it, was startled and instinctively screamed.Clara’s scream made Lance and Joe turn toward her. Even the zombie stopped roaring and glared at Clara.After a few seconds of silence, the doorknob began rattling violently. It was obvious that the zombie wanted to get out of the room as so
