Chereads / TWD: A New Beginning From the End of the World / Chapter 40 - The first objective

Chapter 40 - The first objective

The distance from the door was getting closer and closer, and the number of walkers beside him were looking at each other in greater numbers in front of Airon. 

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" 

At this moment, gunshots echoed everywhere, the walkers not far from where Arion was standing fell to the ground leaving a small group running ahead of him.

After looking at the enemies around him, Airon did not hesitate and ran forward without stopping. Now that he was in such a situation, there was no way he would make a mistake and he didn't care where the walkers were, he just concentrated on who was in front of him. 

Seeing the figure of Airon running forward, Rick and the others did not stop, but concentrated on continuing to fire at the walkers closest to him. 

Bullets continued to tear through the air, with a quick movement, Arion avoided the grip of the first walker to his right, twisted his body and slashed the walker's neck with his machete, the enormous force exerted cut the walker's neck straight through and the grip of the machete a made stronger and he moved towards another walker with a backwards slash. 

"Crack!" 

In just a few seconds, the sound of two consecutive slashes was heard and the heads of two walkers fell to the ground. Blood spurted out, the rotting body of the walkers fell to the ground in a gnawing sound and Airon paid no more attention to them. 

Airon saw a walker very close, who seemed to have been awakened by the sound that was being generated in the surroundings, with a rotten smell, his movements were slow, apparently unaware of what was happening around him. 

But when he saw a black figure approaching his direction, it was too late to realize what was happening. Airon on his side wasted no time, he raised his machete and stabbed it into the forehead of that walker. 

"Crack!" 

After killing that third walker, Airon moved his pistol with silencer and quickly eliminated the walkers in front of him and they were getting closer and closer to his direction. 

A walker closed Airon's path, due to the distance he could not raise his pistol and eliminate the walker, so he could only make a quick movement. Without giving it a chance to move forward, he ran forward a few more steps, lifted his foot and kicked the rotting body of the walker hard, knocking it to the ground. 

Finally with the front and its fringes clear of walkers, Airon grabbed the railings on either side of the door with both hands, pulled hard closing the open space, and removed a hook at his waist to seal the door in an instant. 

When the door was closed, Airon turned to look at the people behind him. There were now a few walkers that were eliminated with a few more shots, then he calmly opened the tower door, on the other side he encountered a walker that had a guard uniform and Airon rushed forward to eliminate him. 

Airon in this situation reacted very fast, he raised his foot and kicked the walker's body, he walked two more steps and stabbed the machete into the walker's forehead. 

"Crack!" 

The walker's forehead was pierced, blood pounded the wall and after everything was settled, Airon closed the door behind him.   

"He did it! hahaha you crazy fucker!" Morgan exclaimed with a laugh.   

"Now let's clean up the remaining ones!" shouted Daryl, and as soon as his words fell, the gunfire around them grew thicker. In just a few minutes, there were no more walkers moving in the main courtyard of the prison.  

"We must go in!" 

Everyone ran into the wide courtyard, and some people even couldn't help but scream. Although the CDC is good, the narrow subway space is really depressing. At this moment, they could finally feel the grass on their feet again and a large open space around them, which made them feel very excited. 

There was no one who was not smiling, Airon also walked happily through the tower. This place would be very easy to defend and a great place to accommodate everyone. 

"Bro, you're awesome!" 

Glenn excitedly ran forward and praised Airon. 

He waved his hands to show it was nothing significant, someone threw his M4 at him and after looking around he said, "Someone get the trucks and vehicles into the prison, we need to check the bodies on the ground again, eliminate the undead and stack all the bodies in a corner." 

Saying this, Airon looked at Rick and pointed to the inner courtyard. "There's a lot of work to do. Let's finish this quickly to keep moving forward." 

"Yes!" 

"No problem!" 

Hearing this, everyone started moving and were busy for a while. After finishing with the previous one, they all stood in front of the fence that led to the inner courtyard again. 

Looking at the walkers behind the fence, Airon quickly thought of how to clear these monsters without loss. 

There is also a backyard in the inner courtyard, where a large number of walkers gather. Airon knew this very well. Once a lot of people advance, it is easy for casualties to occur. In front of the walkers, whether you are wounded or dead, unless it is the bite on a limb, it would be impossible to be saved. 

"Alright, let's divide into several groups let's take turns to make noise in this place, we must lure the walkers to the fence to kill them." After much deliberation, it is safer to go through the fence, except that everyone felt that Airon was too careful, but no one objected. 

It is better to have a careful leader who thinks things ten times before acting than a reckless leader who rushes into danger without considering his subordinates. Everyone felt that Airon cared about their lives, which made them feel special. 

Airon walked to the edge of the fence and slashed the fence with his machete, making a loud noise. 

The nearby walkers who heard the sound, walked slowly towards the gate of the fence, but Airon's eyes did not stop at these walkers, he looked around the corner behind the wall. 

The people in front of the fence had already started to clean up the walking corpses one by one. Airon finally saw some walkers coming out of the corner, and then the walkers moved densely. 

At this time, the people who were cleaning up the walkers also looked over. Looking at the large number of walkers in front of them, they all felt shivers and thanked Airon for being so careful. 

After more than an hour of cleaning, the walkers on the fence finally became scarce, and the place where the sliding door was sealed was already clear, but the ground was densely packed with walkers. 

After making a decision, several people took it upon themselves to open the fence gate, and Airon took the initiative to rush in, clearing the last walkers with riot suits, many already knew how to deal with these walkers, he had demonstrated it and the rest easily replicated it. 

Once again, everyone carried the corpses piled up on a hill near the exit, a long period of time had passed. 

When everything calmed down and it was night, Airon had no intention of moving on, so he ordered everyone to settle down in the surrounding area with tents and prepare dinner. 

Everyone was really exhausted today. After setting up the tents, everyone sat around the fire, waiting for the others to prepare dinner, while Airon carefully checked the fence outside for any damage. 

Daryl was standing on the roof of the modified RV not far away, watching the surroundings with watchful eyes. 

As Airon was about to retreat, he heard a voice beside him. "You're a good leader!" 

Seeing Airon's lone figure in the corner, Morgan suddenly said. 

When he heard this, Airon looked at Morgan without saying anything, everyone considered him someone special but he is really just preparing for the future, he didn't want to be at a disadvantage at all, that's why he needed to make use of his knowledge to get opportunities. 

"Yes, you have great vision and you really care about people. If it wasn't for your help, I would possibly have died." Rick agreed with Morgan's words. 

"I'm just someone who was at the right time within your lives, I hope you will save me if I ever need your help." Airon said with a joking tone. 

"Of course, all of us will come save you." Shane smiled slightly. 

"If I wasn't here, Rick would be a good leader too, you can be my right hand man, haha." 

After a simple exchange of words, the scene fell silent again and it seemed like everyone was minding their own business and no one took the initiative to speak. 

... 

Several young men and women who were not actively involved in the cleanup approached with some large pots of food and everyone began to receive their meals. On the roof of a VR in the distance, Carol brought food to Daryl who was on the roof. 

"Eat something, you can't be hungry even if you're on watch." Carol handed the food to Daryl. 

"Our leader sure eats good food, doesn't he?" As a result of the food, Daryl didn't forget to tease Airon. 

"Don't be so harsh, in my opinion he did pretty well, at least we're all alive, while the others were fleshed out, only he took the trouble to check around, at least he's better than Shane." 

Daryl ate without speaking, in fact, he knew very well that Airon was a good leader, after all even his brother said so. 

It just felt a bit cramped, after all, there was a gap between the communication of the two parties. 

Daryl was thinking about it, he saw Carol reach out and knead his shoulder, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" 

"The recoil of the gun was so strong that it hurt my shoulder." Carol replied. 

"Come here, let me check you out." Daryl put the food down in his hand, motioned Carol to turn around and then touched her shoulder. 

"That's so romantic! Do you want to take a chance on me?" Carol said jokingly to Daryl. 

Their friendship had grown very close, after she took the initiative to confront her husband Ed, Carol was defended by everyone in the community and Daryl took the initiative to help her  

"Stop joking." Daryl sat up from the roof of the modified RV, wanting to go pee. 

"I'm serious." 

"Haha."
