Upon seeing David relax his guard, the man nad Charles gave a faint smile and introduced himself, "I'm Charles, and you must be David, right?"
Hearing Charles suddenly ntion his na, David was taken aback. As far as he could rember, he had never ntioned his na to this man before. They had only briefly t, so how could he know his na?
David looked at him with confusion and asked, "How do you know my na?"
Charles smiled again and replied, "There are so things in this world that cannot escape the eyes of us stargazers." After speaking, Charles looked up at the sky outside the parking lot exit. His eyes deepened, as if the stars in the sky were reflected in them.
"Stargazer?" David paused upon hearing this na. In his previous life, he had heard of this na and knew that Charles was also a supernatural being.
A stargazer was soone who could deduce things based on the changes in the stars. In other words, they used the stars for divination, making them a type of mage-like supernatural being. With this understanding, David realized why Charles would know his na.
Glancing at the pickup truck in the distance, David slowly spoke, "Don't you have a team? Are you the only one living in this world?" He knew that most people who managed to survive in this world ford groups and rarely acted alone. Because acting alone would increase the risks significantly.
Upon hearing David's words, Charles silently nodded. "Stargazers have always walked their own path. If we talk about comrades and friends, then only the stars in the sky are there."
David thought about it and it made sense. After all, stargazers constantly relied on the changes of the stars to divine the unknown. Considering that, it was not an exaggeration to say that the stars were their only friends.
Just then, David suddenly rembered the incident of the second red light a few days ago. The reason he went downstairs to find Charles at that ti was to clarify this matter. So he looked at Charles and said, "You can take the pickup truck, but you have to answer a question."
Saying that, David took out the key to the pickup truck from the warehouse and shook it in front of Charles. When they set out this morning, David had stored all the keys from the garage in his warehouse. He did this to prevent any survivors from finding their way here and stealing the vehicles.
Seeing the key in David's hand, Charles pondered for a mont and then nodded. "Go ahead, ask your question. As long as it's sothing I know, I'll answer."
David didn't hesitate and went straight to the point, "Do you know why the second red light suddenly appeared?"
Upon hearing David's question, Charles was taken aback. He looked at David, and it seed like he recalled sothing unpleasant from the way David was looking at him.I think you should take a look at
After a pause, Charles sighed helplessly and said, "I was also surprised by the sudden appearance of the second red light. So, I conducted a divination based on the positions of the stars overnight. I seem to have obtained so answers." David focused his attention and listened attentively.
"Based on previous patterns, a first red light would bring forth so low-level zombies, occasionally mixed with a few mid-level ones, but only in small numbers. However, after the second red light appeared, the number of low-level zombies in this world decreased significantly, replaced by a large number of high-level zombies and so zombies with supernatural abilities. These high-level zombies feed on the low-level ones, devouring their energy to beco stronger. Therefore, I believe that the appearance of the second red light signifies the arrival of even more terrifying zombies, possibly even the legendary Zombie King," Charles explained, with a slight furrow on his brow, as if he anticipated so grueso scenes.
"High-level zombies? That makes sense!" Upon hearing Charles' words, David nodded inwardly, finally understanding why they encountered a Titan zombie earlier in the day. It was all because of the second red light's appearance.
"Could the Zombie King really appear?" David pondered and asked this question.
"He will, without a doubt. It's only a matter of ti," Charles replied firmly.
At the sa ti, Charles kept his gaze on David, continuously assessing him. After a mont, his face suddenly showed a shocked expression. "You're actually a Level 7 supernatural being?"
David openly nodded, surprising Charles even more. Since Charles had been focused on answering David's questions earlier, he hadn't paid much attention to David himself. Thus, he had always assud that David was just an ordinary awakened supernatural being. But after conducting a divination, Charles discovered that David's strength and inspiration far surpassed that of most individuals.
"Yes, your power is formidable," Charles nodded and acknowledged.
However, David wasn't in the mood to listen to Charles' praise at the mont. His greatest concern was the high-level zombies that appeared after the second red light. These zombies would pose a significant threat to the survivors. Rembering how he almost lost his life today in the attempt to kill the Titan zombie, a chill ran down his spine.
"What about us survivors? Will there be any changes, like becoming stronger?" David contemplated and asked. In his view, there was a delicate balance between the loss of ranks and the strength of supernatural beings in this world. When one side improved, it would cause the other side to rise as well. This was a secret he had learned from other supernatural beings in his previous life.
Shaking his head helplessly, Charles replied, "No, if we want to beco stronger, we can only rely on our own efforts. It's impossible to achieve through the rules of this world. Besides, the appearance of the second red light was too mysterious. I haven't fully divined its secrets yet." Charles sighed, feeling both resigned and puzzled.
Charles was already a Level 4 stargazer, possessing formidable abilities that allowed him to divine anything he wanted to know. However, when he tried to divine the second red light, it was as if he had encountered a thick wall. No matter how he observed the changes in the stars, he couldn't access the secrets behind that wall.
Seeing Charles' worried expression, David didn't inquire further. At the sa ti, an idea arose in his mind. The system had already assigned him the task of forming a team, and currently, their team only had five mbers, one short of a standard team. Therefore, he decided to imdiately recruit Charles into their group.
