Chereads / Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse / Chapter 5 - The Land Lord

Chapter 5 - The Land Lord

This man was taking coins in exchange for living in the green zone. Just like a model land lord, but I respect his idea in the setting of this apocalypse. His stats must be pretty high because of the coins he's gaining, and those turrets seem very out of this world, he must of gotten them from his Supporting Constellation, some sort of Defense Master.

I walk over to his green zone to check it out and the moment I step through the crowd a man flies by me after being slapped by him. In Pildu's blind spot a man tried to sneak in but he was quickly sprayed down by the turrets guarding the zone. "How scary." Some said behind me, makes sense his entire business is built off of fear, exploiting and instilling. I look behind Pildu in the Green Zone which was situated in a restroom, he had dozens of lackeys preparing food, drink, and even a toilet.

What losers to be providing luxuries to a man instead of reaching for them by themselves. As I walk away I heard a voice from behind me, "Hey you, the one with the shaggy black hair!" It was Pildu, he was calling for me. "You look desperate, why not join my team and come into this safe zone?" "Never." I said without thinking, "Your loss" he said reaching for me with his arm.

He stats must've been high because he picked me up with his arm and threw me into the zone, I immediately got up and looked around. The turrets began to charge up. I activated Sprint and got out of the Green zone to the surprise of Pildu. This must've angered him because he left the green zone and began to chase after me. This was his biggest mistake.

I ran up to him and put his arms behind his back and began to pull him with me into the tunnels of the subway. "LET GO OF ME!" he screamed as I dragged him, I didn't listen. My plan was to bring him to the monsters that were about to spawn and leave him to die, or if he survives have him help me make some coins.

Constellation Defense Master has sponsored you 500 coins.

Defense Master? This must be Pildu's sponsor, he must be giving me coins to let him go, well he's not going to convince me.

I kept on into the darkness until I reached what seemed to be the center of the tunnel, then I threw Pildu to the ground, "Get up" I whispered, "You were smart to pull me from my zone, now I can't use my turrets." As I thought, as a Land Lord he's useless outside his land. I began to tell him my plan, "I'll give you two options, you either give me the money you made from sheltering people or you help me kill the monsters this midnight." "I-" Seems like Pildu's choice was too late, a rat jumped up from behind him and he shook it off. The fight was about to begin.
