Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system

Chapter 212 Youth Apartment

?

At this moment, Eamonn and Augustus were happy because they had successfully infiltrated David's team, and they paid no attention to Fatso's words. Moreover, they believed they could handle any danger on their own strengths. And besides, with Alexander around, what did they have to fear?

Taking advantage of the other members of David's team not paying attention, Augustus gave a satisfied wink to Eamonn. With the two "survivors," Eamonn and Augustus, the group arrived at the bottom of the youth apartment building. It was a ten-story structure, a typical collective-style apartment building. The entire building was painted sky blue, but due to the passage of time, the paint had faded and chipped off. The iron gate at the entrance had already collapsed, and the nearby duty room had become a ruin, with office desks and walkie-talkies still visible inside.

Above the entrance,  "(Youth Apartment) ""were written, but they had become blurred over time.

At this moment, the sun had reached its highest point, and the scorching sunlight poured down from the sky, making the surrounding air incredibly hot. However, inside the youth apartment, there was a chilly breeze. Looking at some rooms' balconies still displaying clothes and bed sheets that hadn't been collected, David could imagine the chaotic scene when the apocalypse arrived, with people hastily fleeing for their lives. But in the end, they probably met a gruesome fate at the hands of the zombie.

"David, why is there such a heavy gloomy atmosphere in this apartment?" Arnold felt the cold wind blowing from inside and got goosebumps all over.

"No surprise there; this place is inhabited by that ghostly zombie. How can there not be a gloomy atmosphere? I reckon this place will become taboo for the living after dark." Duke immediately chimed in, taking over Arnold's words.

"Well... you have a point. I didn't know your could be so talkative. I haven't seen you talk this much before." Arnold smiled at Duke, who hesitated for a moment, and then chuckled, rubbing his head.

"From now on, we're going to enter the youth apartment. Since we don't know the exact location of the ghostly zombie, everyone must be careful! If you encounter it, remember not to act recklessly!" David instructed the group. He knew the terrifying nature of the ghostly zombie that could cover the whole apartment with its gloom. To be safe, he had to remind his team members to avoid any accidents. Everyone nodded in agreement, and even Fatso became cautious, pulling out a knife from his waist.

"There might be a domain set up by the ghostly zombie, which could have some effects on you. I'll take the lead." Saying this, Fatso kicked away the rubble at the entrance and walked inside.

A domain referred to an area where a zombie or mutant beast used its abilities to seal off the space. The creator of the domain could sense anyone entering it at any time and even alter the spatial conditions. Additionally, if some espers entered the domain, their abilities could be affected. However, Fatso was just an ordinary dawn scavenger without any special abilities, so the domain wouldn't hinder him.

Seeing Fatso enter, David followed without hesitation, and the others cautiously followed suit.

"Boss, what kind of place is this? Why is it so creepy?" Eamonn and Augustus followed behind the group, feeling a bit scared by the chilling wind inside the apartment.

"Don't talk too much, be prepared for anything!" Eamonn whispered, and then followed along. Thanks to the Blood Orchid, their presence was completely masked. If they encountered danger, they could use their abilities immediately. Even if they couldn't kill David, they could ensure their own safety.

Augustus looked up again at the empty room with the glass wide open on the upper floor and shivered, quickly following behind. The gloomy atmosphere inside the apartment became even more intense, accompanied by a strong stench of decay, as if a large number of corpses had been piled up and left to ferment.

Fatso walked ahead, holding the knife in his hand, its tip pointed backward. Apart from some scattered daily necessities on the floor, there was nothing else in the apartment's lobby.

Fatso began to move slowly towards the innermost part of the apartment. Each floor of the apartment had ten rooms facing each other, all equipped with metal security doors. At this moment, these doors were either open or torn apart by some force, revealing large holes. Arriving in front of the first room, Fatso stuck his head in to take a look. Inside, apart from a bed and some furniture and appliances, it was empty. However, all these items were broken, giving the impression that there had been a fierce battle here.

David walked to the room opposite and found it to be the same. The others also entered other rooms to investigate.

"David, there's nothing alive in these rooms." Arnold said as he came out of one of the rooms, and the others nodded. Clearly, there were no clues they were looking for here, not even a trace of the ghostly zombie.

"That guy is like a ghost, who knows where he could be hiding." Fatso said, looking at a small mirror on the table in the room.

"The ghostly zombie, it's truly a ghost-like existence." Duke said calmly, then glanced at Eamonn and Augustus beside him.

Eamonn and Augustus had no idea what the others were talking about when mentioning the ghostly zombie. At this moment, they were only looking for opportunities to cause trouble for them. If possible, they would prefer to kill David right there.

After thinking for a moment, Eamonn understood that they were searching for a certain type of zombie. So, he cleverly said to David, "Boss, how about the two of us go to the third floor and take a look? We can't just hide behind you all the time; it wouldn't be honorable."

Eamonn gave a signal to Augustus. "Exactly! We're both clever guys. If we find anything, we'll let you know immediately."David and Fatso were about to step on the stairs to the second floor when they heard the two men speak. 

After a brief consideration, David nodded. At the rate they were searching, it would probably take until evening, and if the ghostly zombie appeared at that time, it would be extremely unfavorable for them. Seeing David's agreement, Eamonn and Augustus quickly passed everyone and headed for the third floor.

"Boss! I was so frustrated just now! I had to follow those guys and couldn't make a move at all! I'm telling you, why don't we just attack them right away, leave no trace, and then quickly leave this haunted place to return to our QS community and enjoy life." After reaching the third floor and hiding in a room, Augustus complained to Eamonn. If it weren't for Eamonn's instructions not to act rashly, he would have already found a chance to kill David.
