Chapter 98: The Antagonist's Halo Differs from the Protagonist's
"It looks like you know him, huh? Knowing him makes things easier. Have you seen him in the past couple of days?"
"Seen... yeah, we've seen him. What's wrong?"
"What? You've seen him?"
Upon hearing this, Duane was stunned instead. Since the verbal exchange with Bruce in the morning, Zara had gained some confidence.
Because Bruce knew, the antagonist's halo is different from the protagonist's!
It wouldn't come with any harem halo.
Although it's normal for a handsome and wealthy antagonist to have multiple women.
But if these women were the female lead, it would be a different story altogether.
So, in order for Bruce to legitimately sleep with more pretty girls, he gave Zara a task to persuade Cynthia.
Zara was a smart woman. At this point, she wouldn't care whether Bruce had other women.
She also knew what it meant to haste makes waste.
So she didn't immediately brainwash Cynthia, but chose a gradual approach.
Hence, the conversation just now occurred.
"You... why are you like this? I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go talk to Teacher Joanne!"
Knowing she couldn't argue with Zara, Cynthia quickly changed the subject: "Hehe, Teacher Joanne, I knew Bruce wouldn't abandon you. Oh, by the way, where's that boyfriend you met through blind dates?"
"He... he's dead!"
Hearing Cynthia's words, Joanne's face showed a hint of sadness, and she became even more uneasy.
Although she didn't like Jerald, they still knew each other.
And after spending so many days together, they could even be considered half-friends.
But when Bruce cleared out those scattered monsters and led them out of the dormitory.
The bodies of Jerald and Jesse were nowhere to be found.
In fact, not to mention the bodies, even their heads were completely swallowed by the lizardman.
Seeing this scene, even though she had experienced so much life and death, there was inevitably a hint of sadness in her heart.
Upon hearing Joanne's words, Zara glanced at Bruce and didn't dare to say more.
Cynthia also realized she had spoken out of turn, and her mood also became low.
"Ah? I'm sorry, Teacher Joanne, I... I didn't know...""It's okay..."
"Shall we sit inside and talk?"
"Sure!"
Cynthia quickly pulled Joanne into the dormitory.
Zara also took the initiative and quickly brought several girls to join the conversation.
Once Bruce had dispatched Zara, he paid no attention to the intrigues among the women.
After arranging some defensive work, they began to plan the route for the next breakout.
Because there were too many monsters at the back door, even if they pulled them slowly to kill, it would still pose a certain danger.
And it would take a long time.
So, to save time, Bruce decided to take a detour from the main entrance.
"What? A detour?"
"Sigh, it would be great to have two Gatling guns at this time!"
Hearing that Bruce wanted to take a detour, Ignacio, who had brought a girl over, couldn't help but sarcastically remark.
As the saying goes, all fear comes from insufficient firepower.
No matter how powerful these monsters were, with a couple of Gatling guns that can spray blue fire, they could definitely take out most of them.
And it's safer than close combat.
"Gatling guns? Do you know how to use them?"
"What's there not to know? Load bullets, and then fire away, right?"
"Hehe, you make it sound easy. I bet aside from Malachi, no one here knows how to use such a thing."
"I agree!"
"Alright, stop talking about useless things. Gatling guns? Why not talk about tanks and fighter jets?"
"Exactly, let's hear what Young Master Bruce has to say!"
"Young Master Bruce! Spare me the title..."
Hearing everyone talking about seizing things, Malachi suddenly thought of something: "Although we can't find Gatling guns, other firearms might still be worth trying?"
"Oh?"
Bruce's eyes narrowed slightly: "Are you suggesting... the police station?"
"If we choose to detour, we'll pass by the street next to the police station!"
Malachi nodded solemnly: "We can take a look along the way. If it's not overrun, then forget it. But if it is... we might as well grab some equipment."
"Well, if it's on the way, why not!"Dragon's Roost might not have a military district, but there's still a police station.
And undoubtedly, there will be some decent weapons inside.
If they could get hold of these weapons, the combat effectiveness of their team would definitely rise several notches.
Although there might be risks if these items fell into the hands of others.
But with the Antagonist's Eye, there was no need to fear subordinates betraying.
Besides, he could completely control these weapons himself, right?
With these thoughts in mind, Bruce nodded thoughtfully.
However, after deciding on this marching route, he suddenly felt something was amiss?
He remembered... in almost every post-apocalyptic novel, there was a subplot involving a police station?
And usually, it would be occupied by a bunch of criminals?
Then the protagonist would go to the police station to show off or confront them for equipment or to save a girl, right??
Could it be that this time, he would encounter the protagonist too??
Come to think of it, Bruce did guess some things.
Because when he was formulating the plan to return to the city.
There was a very special battle happening not far from the Rhine Hotel.
This was a young man wearing a black T-shirt and black sweatpants, with a well-proportioned figure and a handsome face.
At this moment, he was fighting a high-level lizardman with a cleaver.
And there were already several monster corpses lying on the ground around him.
The young man was full of energy, but his movements were obviously a bit rusty.
It was clear he wasn't good at close combat.
However......
Behind him was a completely black minibus.
This minibus was different from the usual minibus.
Ordinary minibusses have windows on both sides for ventilation and to allow passengers to see the scenery.
But this minibus, besides the front and rear windows, only had four windows on each side for ventilation.
All the windows were covered with deep reflective film.
From the outside, nothing could be seen inside.
But from inside, one could clearly see outside!
Everywhere else was covered in black metal with a metallic texture.
Even the doors were surrounded by steel sprayed with black paint.
If one could enter through the door.You will see that this is not just an ordinary minibus, but a huge RV!
This RV has extremely high stability, with bedrooms, toilets, kitchens inside!
Television, washing machine, refrigerator, all the necessary living equipment can be said to be readily available.
Judging by the size of the remaining space inside the minibus.
There's no problem sleeping ten people on this vehicle.
At this moment, one of the minibus windows opened.
A lively girl with twin ponytails was leaning out of the window, waving her hands and cheering for the handsome young man.
"Big brother, come on!"
"Big brother, you're amazing!"
Her voice wasn't loud, but it caught the attention of both the high-level lizardman and the handsome young man.
Hiss!
The lizardman spat out its tongue, then bypassed the young man and excitedly ran towards the lively girl.
"Oh no, big brother, it's coming towards me!"
"You bastard, trying to bully my sister? Die!"
Seeing the lizardman trying to cross over to his sister, the young man got angry!
Using his enhanced body, he seized the opportunity and leaped into the air.
A slash hit the lizardman's head, splitting it open directly!
The lizardman fell to the ground with a thud.
Not taking any chances, he struck the lizardman twice more in succession!
Seeing the monster no longer moving, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yay, long live big brother!" The girl cheered and jumped around.
Seeing the girl's childish excitement, Elmo couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.
"I told you, Jill, you're already eighteen this year!! Can't you stop being so childish?"
"That's because big brother, you're amazing!"
Jill Barnes didn't care at all, her face beaming with happiness.
"Sigh, you little brat..."
Elmo Barnes walked up to Jill, his eyes full of indulgence as he ruffled her head: "Forget it, let them come out and collect some crystal cores!"
"Oh, okay!"
