Chapter 160: The Beginning
"Where... where am I?"
It was unclear how much time had passed when Dario reopened his eyes, but all he saw was a crystal chandelier hanging above his head.
His gaze was fixed on the enormous chandelier, confused. He knew this thing, and it should be the one hanging in the hallway of a building's first floor.
Raising his head and looking around in a daze, Dario discovered that, for some reason, he was in the hallway of an unfamiliar building, with his back against the central platform, and his originally tied hands had been untied.
Immediately afterward, he discovered that his assault rifle lay quietly by his side.
Bang! Bang!
Just as Dario felt infinitely confused, two gunshots suddenly rang out from outside the door, hitting the building's door where he was.
He didn't know where the bullets were shot from, but shortly after, the door suddenly opened, and then, as he lowered his gaze, the door fell backward heavily onto the tiled floor.
Boom!
A loud, muffled noise suddenly sounded, and the sound quickly spread throughout the building, echoing in different bursts that extended throughout the place.
The sudden gunfire and the door's fall made Dario tremble completely, and the confusion in his eyes grew more intense, not understanding what was happening at all.
But immediately a roar was heard, which woke him up completely from his daze.
Roooaarrr!
Accompanied by several quick footsteps and roars, Dario saw several figures running from outside through the windows on both sides.
"Shit!"
Seeing this situation, Dario's eyes were full of horror, and he wanted to get up and flee.
But when he hurried to stand up, he discovered that at least one of his legs wasn't responding, and he couldn't stand.
"Dario, grab the gun!"
Just as Dario struggled to stand, a man's shout came from beside him.
Dario was startled for a moment, then turned his head to look and saw a skinny man sitting not far away—the other guy who was in the interrogation room with him.
Apparently, this man was in the same situation as him, sitting on the floor with legs that weren't fully responding, holding an assault rifle in his hands while nervously aiming at the windows and doors.
Seeing Dario looking at him like that, the man got a little annoyed and shouted again, "That guy broke one of our legs; we can't run at all. If you don't want to die, just bring me that damn rifle, and I'll shoot!"
After being yelled at like this, Dario quickly grabbed the rifle from his side and crawled over to the man, aiming the barrel towards the door.
But his trembling hands had already betrayed his current state.
You should know that in the past, Dario stood in a completely safe place to shoot walkers, but at this moment, he couldn't move at all and could only face the threat while sitting and immobile. In such a situation, how could he not be consumed by fear?
As the walkers approached, their fierce and terrifying faces finally appeared at the building's door, rushing in from the outside.
When these walkers saw the two people sitting in the center, they let out a growl and ran towards them, driven by their hunger.
Rrrght!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Just as the walkers appeared, the skinny man was the first to pull the trigger, shouting at the top of his lungs and shooting at the same time.
And Dario also fired along with him as the shots rang out.
The bullets flew, and the walkers at the front were hit first and fell to the ground helplessly.
But for the walkers at the back, after the first ones fell, they continued walking towards the bullets, stepping over the fallen corpses.
This was like a race of life and death: either the two of them would eliminate all the walkers before the bullets ran out, or they would be torn apart by the walkers after the bullets ran out.
But from the beginning, the balance of success was tilted toward the walkers. No matter how the two shot, the walkers kept coming from outside.
Seeing this situation, the skinny man felt extremely hopeless. The walkers on the nearby streets had obviously been attracted by the sound towards them. But even so, he didn't understand where these numerous walkers were coming from.
Finally, there was a click from both men's rifles, indicating that there were no more bullets in their guns.
Dario, helpless, dropped the rifle in his hand and saw a dozen walkers running towards him. The memories in his mind surged wildly in a short time, and he murmured, "This damned world!"
Then he was fiercely knocked down by the first walker and was submerged in an instant.
And the skinny man, not far from him, also let out a sharp and desperate scream amid the flesh and blood being torn apart by the walkers: "Ahhhhh!"
...
From a distance, on the roof of a high building outside where those two people were fighting for their lives, Dominic calmly handed a pair of binoculars to a man beside him.
Hearing the screams coming from inside, he knew that the two people inside should have been killed.
After knocking Dario out again, Dominic turned his attention back to the skinny man.
Unlike Dario's honest response, the skinny man had been very dishonest, trying to deceive him many times. But after some skilled persuasion from Negan, he too answered honestly.
After combining the words of the two and finding no major discrepancies, Dominic got what he wanted and was very surprised by it.
As for how to deal with the two, Dominic had thought about it for a long time.
These two people already knew of his existence. If they were let go like this, as soon as they opened their mouths, it would inevitably lead to a counterattack from their people.
Although a battle between the two sides was inevitable, Dominic didn't want the battlefield to be at the military base. In that case, the food, people, and houses inside would inevitably be damaged, which was too uneconomical.
If they were killed and buried randomly, Dominic wouldn't keep his word about letting them go. First and foremost, as a community leader, he had to respect his word, as that was all that counted these days.
Therefore, Dominic had to find a way to let them go and have them die shortly afterward, ensuring many things with their deaths.
"Let's return to the base. We need to have a meeting where the top leaders must participate, with a direct connection to the central base."
"Yes, sir!"
Dominic had to resolve the threat of the nuclear warheads, so he sent four CH-47 helicopters to investigate nearby areas for now.
