บท 55: How Wicked the Hearts of Men Are
Seeing the bottle of mineral water, Jerald's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, he unscrewed the cap and gulped it down.
Joanne was also eager to drink.
But she was more concerned about her appearance than Dash. Even though she was incredibly thirsty, she didn't gulp down the mineral water.
She simply tilted her head back and swallowed lightly.
The fair neck and exaggerated upper body caught Bruce's eye.
Bruce subconsciously took a glance.
The faint candlelight allowed him to clearly see Joanne's figure!
Hmm... It seems like she's a size bigger than Cynthia, isn't she?
Alright then!
Bruce's lips curled up, and he turned back into the room again.
When the two had almost finished drinking their water, Bruce handed them two sausages.
Seeing the sausages, Jerald burst into laughter.
"More food? Haha, thanks a lot!!"
"No problem!!" Bruce shrugged casually.
These were the kind of sausages that cost five dollars each.
Given their current level of hunger, although they couldn't satisfy their hunger completely, they were enough to significantly alleviate the negative effects of hunger.
"Joanne, why don't you chat more with your student? I'll be going now," Jerald said casually as he gnawed on the sausage.
"Sure!"
After receiving a response, Jerald didn't linger any longer and directly turned away from Bruce's door.
With food and drink in hand, he had no reason to stay!
As for whether Joanne would be in danger?
He wasn't worried about that.
Because not only was Bruce Joanne's student, but he also kindly provided them with food and drink?
With such a model student, what was there for him to worry about?
Moreover, he had his own thoughts.
Bruce had led a group of people from upstairs to downstairs, then across the street, and finally back again.Going back and forth several times like this, yet not a scratch on him?
Bruce saw everything.
At this moment, if he didn't take advantage of the teacher-student relationship to bring the two closer, when would be a better time?
As long as he managed the relationship between them well, they wouldn't have to worry about food and drink in the future.
I have to admit, Jerald is quite clever.
But perhaps due to his upbringing, he hadn't encountered the dark side of society's underbelly.
So he didn't know how wicked the hearts of men could be in this world.
Everything seemed too straightforward to him.
While Bruce couldn't do anything to Joanne today, since she had come to him willingly, he naturally wouldn't let this opportunity slip away.
And Bruce's food wasn't easily obtained.
After Jerald left, Bruce closed the door.
Sitting on the sofa in the candlelight, Bruce spoke softly, "Joanne, teacher, you should understand our situation now, right?"
"Hmm..."
After finishing the sausage and taking a big sip of water, Joanne nodded slightly.
With more and more monsters and no rescue team in sight, even a fool could see the problem.
"What are your plans for the future?"
"Plans?" Joanne couldn't help but be surprised because she hadn't really thought about this question.
But Bruce didn't need an answer. He changed the subject directly, "Joanne, teacher, do you know you're very beautiful?"
Joanne was puzzled, "What... what are you trying to say?"
"Dragon's Roost doesn't have a military district. Sooner or later, it will fall!" Bruce explained, "Do you know what happens to beautiful women like you in a city full of monsters but no military district?"
As mentioned before.
The protagonist is the Son of Destiny.
Their extremely high destiny allows them to encounter opportunities wherever they go.
Although Bruce can kill the protagonist without any restrictions on destiny.
But that doesn't mean the protagonist doesn't have destiny.
Just like now.Saving just one person casually could mean becoming a big shot in the future.
Although Debby had darker skin and was fairly ordinary-looking, she did have a certain level of fame in the future.
Even Jesse remembered Debby's name.
As for the reason?
One, because they attended the same school. Even though their survival trajectories in their previous lives were completely different, and they didn't have any intersection.
But the distance between them wasn't too far.
It was quite normal for Jesse to have heard Debby's name.
Another reason was related to Debby's title: "poisonous lady."
As the name suggests, she used poison.
Her awakened ability was in the poison element.
This ability would continuously evolve into various new toxins as her strength increased.
These toxins were not only effective against humans but also against monsters.
Although awakening in the poison element during the apocalypse wasn't uncommon, Debby, the "poisonous lady," for some reason, aside from hunting monsters with her poison for fun, her only hobby was capturing men with this ability.
In the apocalypse!
It wasn't unusual for powerful men to have a group of beautiful women behind them.
Similarly, powerful women having a group of handsome men behind them wasn't surprising either.
So the title "poisonous lady Debby" remained fresh in Jesse's memory.
"Poisonous lady?" Debby couldn't help but look confused when she heard this title. "What is that?"
"It's... nothing..." Jesse's lips curled up into a smile. "Debby, now that we've experienced life and death together, aren't we comrades?"
"Of course!"
"Then, when I'm healed, let's break out of here together."
Seeing Jesse's determined look, Debby was initially stunned, but then nodded.
"Okay..."
Discovering that the girl beside him was a very powerful assistant, Jesse felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.
And at this moment, on the 7th floor of the Rhine Hotel.As they watched the lingering silver vortex outside the clothing store, Heywood took the initiative to find the security team leader, Jamal.
"Captain Jamal, should we go and take a look?"
Jamal was quite unhappy that he didn't die when he went downstairs to search for food earlier.
Bruce not only survived but also became the center of attention, which made him even more irritated. But he had no choice.
In this apocalyptic environment, if his skills were inferior to others, he could only endure.
Now, it was just a little after eight in the morning, and the entrance to the secret realm hadn't closed yet.
Seeing Bruce bringing out a highly combat-effective monkey from inside, they couldn't help but be tempted.
"Do you think there might still be treasures there?" Jamal sneered. "If there were any other treasures, they would have been taken by them long ago."
"Perhaps there are no treasures, but shouldn't we go and see what's happening?
" Heywood continued to persuade.
"In case we encounter something like this next time, we'll know how to deal with it, right?"
"Hmm? You make a valid point," Jamal first seemed surprised, then nodded in agreement.
"Yes, we should indeed go down and take a look. You gather a few skilled men and come down with me."
"Alright!"
Although there were no treasures in the secret realm, the secret realm still existed.
Plus, most of the monsters on the way had been cleared out by Bruce.
So they easily gathered a group of people and arrived at the secret realm across the street.
"My goodness, this is too miraculous!"
"Is this... another world?"
"It's simply unbelievable."
As they transformed from the entrance of the secret realm to another space in the blink of an eye, one after another, they were all amazed.
On the second morning of the apocalypse, after a night of contemplation, it seemed that all the survivors had found their direction for future development.
Did Jamal team up with Heywood because of Bruce's selfishness?
Sorry, but Bruce didn't care at all.
Not to mention how unreliable their alliance was.
Just the three treasures in the secret realm alone, weren't they more enticing than having Jamal as an ally?
