Chapter 67: Railyard(Part-1)

Ryan climbed out of his car as he looked around taking into sight of the rail yard.

"Will this be enough, brother?"

Ryan bit his lips as he spoke, "I hope so, but first we need to scout and eliminate any threats and establish a temporary base of operation."

Michalina gave a small nod of agreement before she spoke with a frown, "Brother you seemed to be in deep thought since we have left the fort."

Ryan sighed as he spoke, "Did you see perceive anything different amongst the people in the fort."

"If you mean the distrust, fear and uncertainty then it is plenty, even a blind person could spot it, though I wonder why?"

Ryan shrugged as he spoke, "I have no idea, though I fear someone might be spreading some rumours, they were mostly neutral a few of them were even friendly especially after I made them various stuffs, they were extremely grateful after I saved that man and the child but now all of a sudden it changed why I do not know.

Michalina nodded at that as she spoke, "You are Right Ryan, there can be various possibilities ranging from mind control to rumour as such I would suggest against staying here, make sure you can move to and fro from this place, spend most of the day working but from evening to early morning you should be there act friendly it would cause two things firstly it might enable you to present yourself favourably and secondly you might be able to discern the cause of this problem."

"What are you two sibling talking about, in such a hush conspiratorial tone?"

Michalina rolled her eyes as she spoke, "Jessica you could hear us well and if you have hearing problems then we were discussing the sudden change in the mood of the people back in the fort."

Jessica gained a troubled look on her face as she spoke with a grunt, "I know I also have noticed but why? There are too many questions, too many suspects and no answers all we could do is to keep an eye out though I have noticed that all of these are mainly directed towards him, though we also are receiving those stares the bulk is on Ryan."

Michalina bit her lips as she spoke, "I do not like this."

"Me too Michalina is that why you had Nigella stay behind, it could be dangerous for her."

Michalina narrowed her eyes as she looked back towards the base as she spoke with a tired sigh, "I know, I know it could be dangerous but I believe she is expert in intelligence gathering and I hope by the time we return she would have our answers."

"Contact at Three."

Angela's shout drew their attention as they were greeted by a pair of hobbling and wobbling zombies, "Deal with it, Angela."

Angela need not be told twice as the pair died soon after as she spoke with a grin, "This silencer is a work of art, it barely made any noise."

Ryan simply gave them a mock bow as he spoke, "I glad you like it, mademoiselle."

Angela simply snorted at his antics as she spoke, "Though I grateful for getting us proper assault rifles."

Ryan waved his hand as he spoke, "I was lucky that upon reaching Tier 10, I had access to even more new weapons and on the topic of weapon what should we do about the Elven archers they are showing interest on them, including Ylerias herself."

"Give them a few so that they can have a feel for it, but nothing too extravagant, though I believe we will have to teach them how to use guns properly."

Ryan shrugged at as he spoke, "You can think about teaching them later on Sis, for now, let us scout and clear, and then I can get on with my job."

Michalina nodded as she looked around before she spoke, "We will from here then move towards that red-coloured engine standing over there and then slowly circle around and move to the ruins of the buildings, we will find a suitable place for the base so that Ryan may set up his workshop."

Meanwhile back at the base, Ylerias was busy meditating when one of her subordinates arrived and kneeled in front of her, they stayed like this for a moment before Ylerias slowly opened her eyes as she spoke with a small smile, "Siora what have I told you to bow in front of me, you are my oldest friend not to mention we were raised together so please as I have said before when we are alone I want my oldest friend with me not my Honor Guard."

Siora smiled at her as she spoke while taking a seat in front of Ylerias, "Very well."

"So what news do you bring?"

Siora sighed as she spoke, "There is something going on with those humans, it seems that they are conspiring something."

Ylerias sat straight up as she spoke, "Really? I never thought he would be the conspiring one."

Siora frowned before she spoke with a shake of her head, "I do not think that it is him who is behind the unrest, as most of it is aimed towards him and his group, I also noticed that mistrust and wariness that they had against us has increased many folds."

Ylerias frowned at that as she spoke, "That is strange he just saved a girl yesterday, it had not been even a whole day and yet he managed to garner such emotions from his people, so strange."

Siora nodded at that as she spoke, "That is why I am having Ilorva to snoop in and find out if there is someone from behind the scene pulling strings once again brainwashing and putting the people as their thralls and it seems I am not the only one, one of Ryan's Honor Guard is also snooping around."

Ylerias shook her head as she spoke, "No not his Honor Guard, if I am right he has none, those girls are in their army and the leader of their small group is Michalina."

"I see though they are a tad bit protective of him."

Ylerias nodded as she spoke, "Yes and they see him as their little brother, and from what I know the Leader of the Army unit is both Michalina and Ryan's mother, though either Ryan or Michalina or maybe both are adopted."

"So what are we going to do Ylerias?"

��Nothing, we are to do nothing, it is Ryan's headache he will have to learn to deal with problems until and unless I see that it is also affecting us I will not offer my hand for help, but the moment those humans harm even a single hair of my people I will tear them to pieces."

"Achoo"

"Bless you, Ryan."

Only for Ryan to glare toward Jessica who had an amused look on his face while driving the newly improved Goliath, that looked more like a vehicle fit for a battlefield, its passenger shook a bit as a snarling came from outside followed by a sickening crunch as Jessica drove the car over a group of zombies.

Ryan gained a bored look on his face as he leaned on the door while occupying the passenger seat, he saw the zombies trying hard to catch them only to be crushed by the Goliath, 'She is having too much fun causing so many roadkills, so boring I think I would like to take nap, it would take years for them to clear the railyard, if we continue to go on such speeds.', Ryan let out a loud yawn as he promptly tried to fall asleep.

But alas when he had such wonderful companions he was prevented from falling asleep when the car came to a screeching halt forcing him to wake up making him grumble even more.

"Stop grumbling brother, it does not look good on you."

Ryan simply snorted as he climbed out of the car as he spoke with another yawn, "I am not going to seat at the front anymore, the back of the car has so much more space in fact I can lie down and sleep there."

Michalina frowned as she spoke, "You are always tired for some reason nowadays, why?"

Ryan simply shrugged as he spoke, "No idea, I feel a bit tired and lethargic, hey sis there are quite a few wagons lying around, can we check them, maybe we can find some clothes, the last one was destroyed by the guts and blood and now I only have a single short and tee-shirt."

Michalina sighed as she spoke, "I doubt we would be that lucky but there is nothing against trying who knows we might be able to it."

As Michalina and Angela stood by Ryan side she looked towards Jessica as she spoke, "Jessica keep on driving and scout the area while killing any stragglers along with Nikita, the rest of us will look into the ruins of the building."

"Angela, take point."

Angela gave a small nod as she moved forward with Ryan following shortly after her and Michalina bringing the rear, they moved towards what seemed to be a rather large shed which was connected to office and warehouses.

"Most of it is rubble."

"I know brother, as such maintain vigilance who knows what is lurking in those rubbles."

Ryan puffed up his chest as he spoke, "Please I am extra careful and cautious."

"Really, then remind me who was kidnapped by a giant bird."

Ryan frowned at that as he spoke, "That is a " ~bang ~ "low" ~bang~ "blow sis."

He spoke while firing at a zombie before Angela snapped back at them with a snarl, "Focus I have a bad feeling about this place, I do not know why but I feel extremely unease here."

Ryan narrowed his eyes as he spoke, "You know now that you mention it this place definitely feels odd and dangerous, everyone please be on your guard."
