Nathaniel leaped up towards the fourth floor while the trap mechanism were releasing its traps.
The arrows were shooting faster from different directions because of its force from within the traps.
Nathaniel was leaping from one place to another as he used his ability attribute to harden his skin which it became his armor.
Then, a huge heavy sphere ball emerged out of the wall and was immediately releasing a small cannon ball towards Nathaniel.
Nathaniel's eyes widened because of the changes on the trap mechanism.
It seemed like there are more traps than they had expected.
The small cannon ball was about to touch Nathaniel's sleeve but Nathaniel added another layer of armor on his body.
He waved his arms towards the small cannon ball and it bounced on the hardened armor as it was producing a screech sound.
Nathaniel was stunned when he felt the heaviness of the small cannon ball despite its small size and shape. It's unscientific!
"Nathan!" Wilson called out his name restlessly, just checking out if Nathaniel is fine or not by responding to him.
"I'm fine!" Nathaniel frowned as he saw another trap mechanism was activating after the released of small cannon ball.
"What was it this time?" he whispered to himself as his body and mind stay vigilant.
"Ting! Guh!" the sound came from the trap mechanism.
Then, a rays of red light was aiming towards his chest and forehead.
Nathaniel was shocked unprepared.
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
BANG!
A consecutive shots of bullets sounded throughout the fourth floor.
There's no attached silencers on each gun barrels and its noise obviously attracted the zombies outside.
Nathaniel panicked, not because of the gun firing but because the noises surely heard by the zombies outside.
He took out his walkie talkie and was about to order his men on checking the situation outside when he heard a young man's voice from behind him.
"Hey, who are you?"
Alex asked while yawning heavily as his eyelashes trembled because of sleepiness.
Nathaniel's muscles tensed up and turned around.
His eyes dilated because of the young man who suddenly appeared behind him without making noises.
He's a soldier and he was trained to be vigilant all the time until it became his sixth sense because every dangerous secret missions he underwent from before until to this day.
Alex was wearing his short pants and long sleeves shirt with a disheveled hair.
He dreamt of not living by himself but with other human survivors.
Despite his condition being exposed to the public, everyone accepts him with opened arms.
It gave him chills run down his spine which wakes him up while sweating and decided to go out.
But...
'Why the heck a stranger is here?'
he cursed inwardly while blinkly innocently towards the stranger.
"Who are you?"
he asked the stranger man. The stranger man paused and turned around to look at him.
"Uhh.. are you the house owner?"
Nathaniel awkwardly asked while thinking of how to persuade the house owner to let them stay for the night...at least.
Alex tilted his head while contemplating. He was hesitating to whether let then stay or not.
Also, he felt no malicious intent coming from Nathaniel.
However, his sixth sense kept screaming at him that this stranger man in front of him...
...is way stronger than the group before them.
Suddenly, Wilson couldn't wait to go up.
He thought that the trap mechanism stopped because they haven't heard any movemeng from upstairs.
"Nathan!" Wilson called out to Nathaniel. Wilson sighed a huge relief while a huge rock lifted from inside him because of worry.
"Why are you here?!" Nathaniel abruptly bursted out as he looked behind him and realized that the trap mechanism didn't deactivate yet.
"H-Huh?" Wilson was bewildered but his eyes constricted as he saw the trap mechanism beside Nathaniel immediately activated when it detected Nathaniel's movement.
"Nathan!" he shouted while he was running towards Nathaniel to be his shield.
However, Nathaniel was also moving when he saw the trap mechanism behind Wilson immediately activated when it detected Wilson's voice.
They were worrying to each other's situations as their eyes filled with panic and despair while bullets shoot towards their direction from behind Wilson and beside Nathaniel.
However, Alex gasped as his imagination was changing into a dramatic tragedy of both the Male Lead and the second male lead as they faced their enemies together.
Alex was feeling touched as his eyes moistened.
His imagination became even more dramatic.
The male lead fell down while the second male lead immediately bent down his knees as he was crying because the male lead is dying.
"Sob... sob... sob" Alex used his sleeves to wipe away the snot on his nose and subconsciously deactivated the trap mechanism which he always hide inside his sleeves.
Nathaniel and Wilson dodged the bullets which almost hit their shoulders.
They prepared themselves with a fighting stance as they expected more weapons to be activated but nothing came out of the trap mechanism.
Nathaniel: ....
Wilson: ....
Where's the weapon they are expecting?
Were my worries and despair earlier came in vain?
