My Ten Wives and Ten Rings in the Apocalypse

Chapter 108 More Camps Appearing

"Who is that?" A man asked, squinting his gaze.

A man pop his head behind the man and looked in the direction of the man's gaze.

"Hmm. That person seems familiar." He murmured.

"Should we report it?" he looked at his colleague.

"Yes."

At once, one of the men picks up his radio and informs the other side.

"Stay put and monitor the intruder. We will send more men to you right away." A male voice came from the radio.

The two guards, dressed in black, retreated deep into the shadow of the destroyed building.

A man held his chest as blood continued to gush out his injury. His face ashen as he staggered forward with trembling steps.

When he arrived in front of the guards' building. He halted and stared at the building.

"Come out. I need your help." He shouted, blood flowing out of his mouth.

He waited for a couple of minutes but no one answered. He blinked twice as his head fuzzy. He staggered backward and fell on his knee.

"I'm Gary of the third regiment." He managed to say as he fell to the ground.

Immediately, the two guards rushed out of their hideout as they stared with their mouths ajar.

Gary was a popular man in their camp and one of the strongest in the third regiment. Seeing him like this, left them astounded.

"What happened to him?" Erik asked.

"How would I know?" Carter replied.

"I will carry him while you report to the camp." He added.

Quickly, Erik rushed to their post and picked up the radio. After informing the base, he rushed forward to support Carter in carrying Gary.

They looked at his injury and their heart missed a bit. A ghastly hole pierced his back right through the chest.

They saw all his innards which were supported by Gary's hands. They looked at each other and shivered.

"What could give him such an injury? It must be a powerful beast." Erik whispered.

"Yes. No human could cause that scary injury. " Carter nodded as he wiped the bead of sweat from his forehead.

'How did he survive?' He thought.

Vroom!

Two vehicles arrived in front of the dilapidated building and a couple of men armed with guns rushed out.

A young woman led the group as they arrived in front of Erik and Carter. The woman didn't look at them but her gaze fixed on Gary.

"Tell me what happened." She commanded.

Erik and Carter looked at each other as they swallowed the lumps in their throat.

"We don't know what happened to him. We only found him like that when he arrived in front of our post." Carter announced slowly.

Hmm!

The woman squinted her brow and stared at Gary's ghastly injury.

'This is not a beast attack but human.' She twisted her lips and bent on one knee to examine the injury carefully.

"Ma. I think we should take Sir Gary to the medic." Carter whispered.

Hmm.

The woman raised her head and looked at Carter for a moment before she said.

"You're right. Take him to the medic." She commanded.

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was not the first time she forgot herself when concentrating on something.

As the leader of the third regiment. She was well known by everyone.

The Forgetful Alma.

However, no one dared to call her that name in her presence. Alma looked at Carter once again before she entered and left.

"That was close. Why did you talk?" Erik asked as he stared at Carter with wide eyes.

"What should I do? Gary would die if she continued to stare at him like that."

Inside the military vehicle, Alma stared at the moving street, lost in thought.

'We're not alone. Some people are coming for us. '

'I need to report and gather some men for a reconnaissance mission.' She nodded.

At the hidden warehouse.

Justin and the others were busy packing the resources. The weather got darker with howls of powerful winds.

He dropped the cartons in his hand inside the trunk of the vehicle and looked at the sky.

'We're running out of time.' He murmured.

"What's it?" Kira appeared beside him.

"Nothing. Just checking something." He answered without looking at her.

He took out the list from his pocket and stared at it for a moment before looking at the sky.

'It now or never.'

"Susan." He called.

"She's still down there. She will be out in a minute." Kira answered.

He nodded and looked at Kira.

"I need to get these things before the sky turns into darkness."

"But you can't carry everything on that list. Besides, the probability of you finding most of those things is small." She said, closing the short distance between them.

"I know. But we need to try. Something is telling me if we don't go now. We won't have the chance again and it may spell our doom." He said seriously.

"Alright. Be careful." She gave him a peck and smiled as she returned to the building.

Susan witnessed the short action between the two but her expression didn't change.

Most people have already guessed that something was going on between the two. She dropped the carton and looked at Justin.

"I heard you need my attention." She said.

"Do you know where we can get these things quickly?" He gave her the list.

She received the list and stared at it for a moment and said.

"I know where we can get some while the others would be difficult." She raised her head and looked at him.

"That's enough." He nodded and walked toward a modified car.

Kira stared at the car as it departed from the hidden warehouse and sighed.

'Be careful.' She said through their soul link.

'I know.' A light smile appeared on Justin's face.

Susan saw the smile and wondered why he was smiling. She could count the number of times she saw him smiling with one finger and that is now.

Justin drove the car skillfully avoiding most of the blockage on the road while sometimes, they needed to get out of the car to clear the blockage.

"I want to ask you something?" Susan asked, not looking at him.

"Sure."

"How do you know so much about the apocalypse?" She asked.

"I know nothing. Everything happens naturally. Besides, my ability makes me more sensitive to the environment than others." He answered.

Susan raised her brow and stared at him. Since then, they have been together. No one knew his ability. Although he fought in their presence, most people didn't understand his ability. Immediately, it piqued her curiosity.

"What is your ability? Mine is lighting. That's obvious, right?"

"Of course—" Justin stepped on the break and fixed his gaze ahead.

In front of the car, a group of people armed with weapons stared coldly at them.

"Get out." A middle-aged man shouted.

Susan looked at the people in front of them and shook her slightly. When she was only in the second Circle. She didn't know the difference between her and Justin until she reached the third circle.

Nevertheless, the pressure she revived from Justin made her realize that she was still far from being his match.

'I hope these people didn't court their death.' She thought and stepped out of the car.

"It took you long enough for you to show yourself," Justin said as he came out of the car.

The group raised their brow and stared at Justin intently.

'Did he notice us or he's bluffing.' The middle-aged man thought in dismay.

"What are you talking about?" He snapped, cracking his muscle.

"You're standing because I don't detect any killing intention from you. Else, you won't know how you die." Justin said confidently.

"Why are you spying on us?" He asked.

"You took our people and the resources we discovered. And now, you're asking why we are spying on you?"

Crack

A deafening thunder echoed in the sky and a yellow bolt of lightning flashed through the sky. The temperature dropped to an unimaginable level, leaving crisp ice in the air.

Susan glanced at Justin and back to the group obstructing their path.

Justin noticed Susan's glance but didn't turn his head. He looked at the sky and thought for a moment before he said.

"We don't have time. We need to leave. If you're talking about Joe and his friend. They're safe. If you want to see them, go back to the fight scene, you will see our people. They will lead you to your people."

With that, he turned his head, preparing to enter the modified car. Seeing this, the group looked at each other not knowing what to do.

"Can you please wait and tell us what happened?" Sergio, the middle-aged man, said quickly.

Before Justin could respond, he heard Susan's sweet voice.

"If you want to know more about your friend. Follow what he says. The weather is changing and danger is approaching. I advise you to find a secure location to hide." Saying her piece, she turned and entered the car.

Sergio, the only Second Circle among the group, had a hint of what Susan and Justin were saying.

'We need the resources to survive. Besides, I alone can not protect the group.' His thoughts spiral in disarray.

He looked at the chaotic sky and shivered. He remembered the last nightmare and a bead of sweat dripped from his forehead.

'These two are stronger than me…'

He took a deep breath as if coming to a complicated decision before he shouted.

"Please, accept our group into your camp."
