Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Chapter 348 The Strong

Avril nodded and escorted Alex as he took the Mothman Princess away. Alex already had a plan in mind: using the Princess's identity to infiltrate the enemy base. Understanding their strength was crucial for his next steps.

Not long after they left, the Princess regained consciousness. However, she had completely lost her self-awareness, and every word and action were now under Alex's control.

Looking at the Princess before him, Alex suddenly felt tired. She had an attractive figure, and he had been fighting for so long. Maybe it was time to enjoy himself a bit. She was already a captive, after all, so there was no reason to hesitate.

Thinking this, Alex glanced around. The area was deserted.

He lifted his large hands and skillfully unbuttoned her clothes, revealing her fair neck and delicate collarbones. His cold hands roamed over her body, making her shiver uncontrollably.

Alex was pleased with her reaction, a smile curling at his lips as he moved his hands lower...

As the sounds of moans filled the air, the sky gradually darkened, and a few ships appeared on the horizon.

Seeing this, Alex smiled. His wish had been granted. He had been wondering how to reach the enemy base quickly, and now they had delivered the means.

He glanced at the Princess beside him, nodding in satisfaction.

As expected, the ships soon landed in front of them. A tall figure, about six feet tall and holding a laser gun, emerged from one of the ships.

"Lord Aiken, why are you here with the Princess?"

The man who emerged looked bewildered upon seeing Alex. Aiken should have been in the heat of battle, not here.

Alex smiled slightly. So his name was Aiken.

"There were some issues earlier. Our defenses broke down, and I managed to rescue the Princess."

Alex pointed to the now unconscious Princess and spoke to the warrior who had emerged from the ship. The warrior nodded, fully believing Alex's words. He knew Aiken's strength well, and if Aiken said it was true, it must be.

Regardless of what had caused Aiken to encounter trouble, the outcome was favorable.

"In that case, let's head back!"

Alex nodded, carrying the Princess as he followed the warrior into the ship.

Everything went surprisingly smoothly, of course, if one overlooked Alex's recent violation of the Princess.

"We have safely arrived, Lord Aiken. Please disembark."

The warrior said respectfully.

Alex nodded, carrying the Princess as he exited the ship, following the warrior into the base.

The environment here was not as harsh as he had imagined. In fact, it was very clean and the air was refreshingly clear, making it quite comfortable.

It seemed more like a city, with advanced buildings, clearly indicating it was a military base or more accurately, a secret stronghold.

Carrying the Princess, Alex followed the warrior to a room. He placed the Princess on the bed and glanced at the warrior.

"What should I do next?"

The warrior was momentarily taken aback by Alex's question. However, before he could respond, an unexpected guest walked in through the door.

This new figure was also very tall and appeared to be extremely powerful.

"Aiken, you're finally back. Do you remember our last agreement?" The man spoke with a sinister expression. Alex frowned slightly, realizing that this guy had many enemies within the base.

"What's the matter? Are you looking for a fight?" Alex challenged, eyeing the man.

"Haha, you think I don't know your strength? You're no match for me," the man laughed, his gaze filled with mockery.

Alex shook his head at the man's words. "You underestimate me. Though you're strong, defeating me won't be that easy."

"Oh really? Let's see about that." The man said, swinging his fist towards Alex.

True to his reputation as a seasoned warrior, every move he made was filled with lethal intent. Alex dodged and then extended his hand, grabbing the man's arm. The man struggled to free himself, but Alex's grip was like iron.

Alex let out a cold snort and delivered a powerful kick to the man's chest. The man fell to the ground with a groan, unable to get up for a while.

"By the way, any new updates recently?"

Callia shook her head. "No, we've been keeping to ourselves lately. Apart from occasionally hunting zombies, we haven't been involved in anything else."

Alex raised an eyebrow. He hadn't expected these people to hunt zombies. He originally thought that the sudden appearance of zombies was their doing.

"That's good. If there's nothing else, I'll take a look around inside," Alex said, pointing to the building in front of them.

Callia hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Alright."

Alex didn't notice Callia's expression and walked straight into the building. Before entering, he carefully inspected the area to ensure there were no traps or dangers. Being essentially a stranger here, he needed to understand the layout to avoid being ambushed.

Alex cautiously stepped inside, vigilantly observing his surroundings. For some reason, he felt uneasy.

There were no dangers, not even a single person around, but the air was filled with a strange atmosphere, making him uneasy.

"Strange, why do I feel like I'm being watched?" Alex murmured.

As Alex prepared to move forward, a voice echoed through the hall.

"Haha, finally found you, Aiken."

Alex froze and began to sweat. He slowly turned around to see a man in black clothing glaring at him with a cold expression.

"Who are you?" Alex swallowed nervously and asked.

"Who I am doesn't matter. All you need to know is that your life now belongs to me," the man said with an evil smile, walking toward Alex.

"Damn it," Alex cursed under his breath. Just how many people had this guy provoked? The current situation was beyond his comprehension, and he had no data on who this person might be.

His mind raced through various pieces of information, but none of it helped him understand his current predicament.

"Aiken, prepare to die!" the man snarled, lunging at Alex with clawed hands.

Alex's pupils contracted, and he swiftly dodged out of the way.

"Haha, Aiken, keep running!" the man taunted.

"Why should I run?" Alex retorted coldly, raising his right leg and aiming for the man's head.

"Fool," the man roared, blocking Alex's leg with his hand.

Alex spun to the side, evading the block, and threw a punch at the man.

"Die," the man growled again, meeting Alex's punch with his own.

Boom...

Both were pushed back by the impact.

"Your strength has increased," the man said in surprise, noting Alex's newfound power.

"Heh, same goes for you!" Alex responded calmly. He then blurred into motion, appearing in front of the man in an instant.

"How dare you sneak attack!" the man shouted angrily.

"This isn't a sneak attack," Alex said with a faint smile. Then, he landed a powerful punch to the man's stomach.

Boom!

A muffled groan followed as the man spat out several mouthfuls of blood, clutching his abdomen with a pained expression on his face.

Alex straightened up, looking at him coldly. "You should know your fate by now."

The man lifted his head, glaring at Alex with a grimace. "Hmph, you think you can kill me? You're still too inexperienced."

Alex narrowed his eyes, realizing the man was preparing for a desperate move. However, Alex wasn't worried, he had made thorough preparations.

As expected, the man suddenly pulled out a pill from his pocket and swallowed it.

Alex's expression changed slightly. Did this guy have another trick up his sleeve?
