Chapter 208 - The Search

Not believing that he couldn't shake David, he grabbed hold of David's hands with his two arms and tried moving him again. But still, the result remained the same.

Lost for words, David blinked his eyes at Isaac and asked, "What do you think you are doing?"

Isaac scratched his head blankly and blinked his eyes twice.

Finally, he said "You seem very strong."

"Hm, pretty lucky to be born with inborn strength." David just fished out a casual lie.

"Hehe! In this era? That lie cannot even fool me. No one is born with in born strength." Isaac snorted and stared proudly at David with a disdainful look.

"Uhn?" David was surprised and he looked at Edmonton with a questioning look.

"Yea, he is right. And don't ask me why, because I don't know why either. All I can say is that all kids are born the same except they spend a ton of money to modify the baby while it's still in the womb, they are pretty much born with the same strength." Edmonton shrugged, finally placing his backpack on his back.

"Alright, let's start moving. If we move quite fast, we should reach the safe zone a few hours before the Event ends.." Edmonton said.

"Finally! Let this goddamn event end! It's been a while I slept on a good comfortable bed." Isaac grinned widely.

David nodded his head in response and moved together with them both Isaac and Edmonton while they headed to the safe zone.

"By the way, my name is Edmonton and the other guy over there is Isaac."

"Woah! Its... " David was unable to complete his words before he was Interrupted.

"Huge right?" Isaac piped in.

"No, I wanted to say intact. The buildings here are all intact." David looked stared expressionlessly at Isaac then he gazed towards the safe zone.

The building in there are all intact, without the regular vines, trees and most important mutated beast inside. It looked like a very small town.

The gate to the entrance was exceptionally massive but also surprisingly opened. David followed Edmonton and Isaac as they walked past the opened gates.

There were already plenty of students crowded at the streets of the, selling things and bartering things off to each other.

At one particular building, David saw four students fighting each other for the ownership of the building. He was quite fascinated.

Finally, they seem to reach the centre of the small town. A large brown coloured building almost three times as tall as the other small building was located right at the centre.

And at the entrance of the large building four intimidating looking students had their interface opened, making transactions with the crowd of students at the front of the building.

"That is where we would make the transaction." Edmonton pointed towards the huge crowd of students and the entrance of the building.

"So we will have to go there to submit our kill points? And what do you guys get in return?" David asked, obviously puzzled by the fact that they would submit their hard earned kill points just like that.

"We get some Gyno points in return and moreover, Phyllida will owe us all a favour." Isaac said smugly, staring eagerly at the people making their own transactions.

"Hm, its pretty worth it then." David said even though he didn't quite agree with their logic.

"Alright, the place is so crowded, we won't get to submit the points very soon." Edmonton said with a frown.

"Let's go separately then. And the first to make the exchange should call the others, so we could join." Edmonton said after some thoughts.

David blinked his eyes in agreement while Isaac also nodded. In fact, he had already started moving before the decision was made.

Rolling his eyes, David waved his hands. "See you guys soon."

Edmonton nodded his head in return and left also.

Finally, David's gaze turned serious. He needed to find Phyllida as soon as possible.

Checking his name up in the rankings, David's expression darkened. His name had gone from the third position to the fourth.

"Where the hell are this people getting kill points from." David gritted his teeth angrily.

Immediately, he grunted loudly and focused his attention on one of the students making a transaction with some crowds at the left corner of the large stairs.

With his sight on the guy, David swiftly entered the crowds and like a wrecking ball rolling through a pile of dominoes, David stormed his way through the crowd and pushed those in his way to the side.

"Hey!" "Watch it mate!" "Who the f*ck touched me just now!"

"If you have the guts, stop right there."

"Watch were you going man."

Several voices of complains instantly rose up as they began to spew different cursed at David but he didn't mind in the least. He continued to push his ways through.

As soon as David reached the front of the guys, the guy spoke first.

"Wait a second, let me finish this transfer... And done, alright, you know how this goes. Send me your kill points and I will transfer the equivalent of the Gyno points to you." the guy didn't even bother to look at David, he just kept typing on his interface with a serious busy expression on his face.

"Where is Phyllida, I'm here to find her." David said straightforwardly without bothering to hide his intentions.

The guys suddenly paused and he slowly removed his gaze from his interface glanced at David expressionlessly. "You want to meet with Phyllida?"

The guy asked as if he wanted to confirm if he had heard right.

"Yes, I'm in a rush to meet her right now." David was getting irritated by the disturbance.

"Oh, right away! Just walk into the large open door and follow the holographic arrows that pops up, at the floor, you will then meet her." The guy moved out of the way and answered quickly as if he was scared David would suddenly change his decision.

It was now David's turn to be stunned. It ws just too easy. Blinking his eyes softly, David replied with a weird expression.

"Thanks?" although the situation was slightly out of his expectations, he didn't put it to heart.. He placed the thought to the back of his mind and stepped forwards, heading inside the large building.
