"What?"
Kenny turned his head in confusion. This is the last hour of his work today, and the number of walkers that need to be cleared has also been completed. But unexpectedly, a guy appeared and shouted at him.
He quickly looked back, and the face that made all the civilians hate him appeared in front of him.
It turned out to be the boss's son, Sebastián Milton!
"Damn, why did this bastard come here?" In the moment these thoughts crossed his mind, Kenny quickly put on an apologetic smile on his face.
"I'm sorry, I'll take care of it."
As he spoke, Kenny's movements were not slow. He dragged the corpse aside.
At this moment, another walker emerged from the corner not far from him. His expression changed, he let go of the walker and with a twist of his spear, he accurately pierced the walker.
It's unknown whether it was due to the fresh state of this walker, but the fluids from its head flew out, splattering the girl next to Sebastián.
"Ahh! My clothes!"
The girl covered her face with her hands and her scream pierced the sky, startling Sebastián beside her. Before he could look back, he smelled a grotesque stench. At this moment, the girl's whole body emitted a foul odor.
The girl covered her face and ran away. Sebastián knew that his illusions shouldn't work today, so he focused his attention on Kenny in the next second.
Turning his head angrily to look at the defenseless soldier standing there, he ran towards him like a madman, kicked him to the ground, and then kicked him forcefully.
When Kenny embraced his head, Sebastián kicked the man on the ground in the stomach, and when his stomach, he kicked his head. The two brothers, Deanna's sons, were stunned by this man's crazy behavior.
Kenny didn't dare to resist at all. This guy is the leader's son. He's like a prince in the base. Although Mrs. Milton doesn't like her son, anyone who dares to hurt him over this will definitely regret it.
Sebastián continued hitting and kicking poor Kenny. After Sebastián calmed down, Kenny lay on the ground, exhaling less and less.
Sebastián spat on the ground and finally kicked the opponent's head in frustration.
At the sound of a click, Kenny suddenly fell silent, but a strange arc appeared on his neck.
The soldier in red armor standing behind the three silently observed the scene, his brow gradually furrowing, and just as he was about to step forward to intervene, he saw Sebastián deliver the final kick.
Sebastián did something terrible again, and the two soldiers in white armor standing behind their red-armored commander looked at the captain in front of them with somber thoughts, realizing that he was unresponsive, and both showed expressions of concern in their eyes.
"Sir, do we really not care? How do we explain this to Mrs. Milton?"
Forcefully suppressing his emotions, and the need to kill Sebastián arose for a moment, the man in the red armor exhaled heavily and pondered many things before deciding what to do.
"Take him out and find a place for him to recover. No one saw what happened today, understood?"
"But..."
"No, but if you two still want to keep wearing this uniform, just do as I say..."
"Yes, sir."
After the man in the red armor finished speaking, he turned around and walked back, murmuring quietly to himself.
"That's all I can do for you..."
Seeing the two soldiers saying nothing, Sebastian directly dragged the corpse away and walked off. He seemed relieved, and a ruthless smile appeared on his face. He walked towards the red-stomached man, who slapped him on the back and laughed loudly.
"Good job, hahaha."
After speaking, he seemed to think of something, his face changed, and he lifted his legs to chase after the girl in the direction she had gone. At this moment, Aiden and Spencer's faces were still breathless, and Spencer looked at his trembling hands, whispering to himself.
"We were accomplices, really?"
Aiden took a deep breath and smiled randomly.
"No, it was Sebastian who did this, it has nothing to do with us. And didn't you see the soldiers dragging that man like garbage? Do you understand what that means?"
Seeing his brother with an excited face, Spencer asked with some confusion.
"What does it mean?"
Aiden put his hands on his younger brother's shoulders, looked briefly at his younger brother, and said in an uncontrollably excited tone.
"It means we have privileges, understand? It means that as long as we have power here, we can do whatever we want!"
Spencer widened his eyes, and his expression was a bit slow. It took him a while to react, but he didn't show the same expression as his older brother, only the corners of his mouth lifted slightly.
Looking at the backs of several people walking away, Mercer stood there with a calm expression on his face, but his clenched fist revealed his restless heart at this moment.
...
After Jon arrived at the Federation, he was assigned a position similar to Mercer's, but because the leader here, Pamela Milton, was a strong woman obsessed with power, he was only given a relatively small position. For now, he only leads a few regular soldiers, so it can be said that he is just slightly better than a polished commander.
Jon, who had just returned to the settlement, still had some black and red stains on his body, but he walked towards Deanna's residence indifferently.
When he was about to arrive, a burly red figure suddenly emerged from the opposite corner, and it was Mercer.
The two looked at each other, didn't speak tacitly, just nodded slightly to greet, and it wasn't until Mercer walked away that Jon looked back.
Seeing the other party disappear around the corner, he entered Deanna's mansion.
In the living room, Deanna's family had just finished discussing and were sitting, drinking tea, and chatting. Jon's arrival surprised them.
"Jon? Aren't you on a mission?"
He went straight to the kitchen to get a glass of water and drank it in one gulp before letting out a long sigh of relief.
"Hoo... Yeah, they thought the task they assigned me would keep me busy until the evening, but it actually only took me half a day to finish it. But the supplies there ran out, and I haven't had a proper meal since morning."
Speaking of this, he even suspected that those guys deliberately hid the supplies.
"Thank you for your hard work, but I still have to ask, how did it go?"
Jon walked towards the living room, sat on the sofa, and then smiled.
"Hey, it went well, although I didn't completely convince him. Although that guy looks fierce, he's just a straightforward man. Give me a little more time, and I'm sure it'll be fine."
Alicia, standing aside, handed him a paper.
"This is the list I've compiled these days. As far as I know, these people are likely to have strong opinions about Pamela. You should avoid close contact with them and understand their perspectives before taking any action,or else It will cause you a lot of trouble."
Jon glanced at the names, silently nodded, and discreetly memorized the information about these individuals.
Deanna remained silent for a moment, but after seeing Alicia finish explaining the matter, she finally spoke up: "Mr. Seda, there are some changes in our course of action. I thought Pamela was still the same person from before the end of the world, but I didn't expect her to change so much. The situation here is even more serious than what Airon initially described. It's only thanks to the troops from this community that the walkers outside are keeping the soldiers occupied, but it's just a matter of time before the bubble bursts."
"Our previous course of action was proposed by me. Now I have to admit my mistake. I didn't realize the problem after being here for half a year. Airon guessed it based on scattered information, which made me doubt my own capabilities."
Monroe, standing by her side, suddenly took his wife's hand, feeling the support from her husband, and Deanna smiled faintly.
"Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that the past six months have been wasted, and I've let down Airon's trust and the support of some people."
Alicia also consoled her with a few words, and Deanna regained her composure and looked at Jon again with a complex expression.
"So our objective has shifted from the upper level to the lower level. In the past six months, I've realized that the so-called order here is merely an illusion. I've seen more than one person lose their livelihood due to false charges and deception. They can only resort to extreme measures."
"Where there is oppression, there must be resistance! Our goal is to gather the forces of resistance and completely change the distorted rule here!"
Speaking of that, Deanna stretched out her hands in front of her face, and the rest followed suit, joining their hands together.
"For our future!"
"For the future!"
With their hands joined together, under the sunlight streaming in from the window, they shone brightly, as if they were glowing.
...
After leaving Deanna's residence, Alicia walked alone towards her apartment. Ever since she entered the Commonwealth, she didn't live with Deanna but chose a small apartment for herself.
Just as she was walking towards the corner near her apartment, a figure suddenly jumped out from the corner and collided with her.
Both of them fell to the ground, causing a bit of dizziness from the impact.
Alicia rubbed her hand, only to realize that the figure on the opposite side seemed motionless. She quickly got up to check and discovered it was a very beautiful girl, but her light-colored clothes were not as clean as there was a dark bloodstain on them.
Walker blood?
As soon as she realized it, Alicia hurriedly checked on this girl, and after going through many turns, she let out a long sigh of relief. It was blood that had splattered, and there was no injury on the skin.
Just as Alicia was feeling a bit overwhelmed since the girl still hadn't woken up, a young man's shout came from a distance.
"What are you doing? Let her go!"
