Surviving the Apocalypse While Being Tempted by an Elf and a Dark Elf Chapter 93: Reunion (3)

Billy frowned when he heard that grenades kill a mutant zombie or two, but they weren’t that useful. Perhaps they could be used to power level so individuals, but there was no reason for that. Giving power to more people was too dangerous…

“Okay… a few dozen grenades you will have, but when you decide to use it, you will have to warn . I will accompany you just in case to avoid trouble,” Billy replied.

A few dozen… that wasn’t so bad. In fact, Luke asked for more for him to receive a lot more than he had anticipated. Given that grenades in his hands could kill dozens of zombies, a few dozen would give him more coins than the value of the original items. Amanda couldn’t help but sigh since she knew what Luke did. He basically scamd his friend. Luke knew that as well, but Billy deserved at least that much.

Due to the differences between ti zones and the duration of the trip, the group had arrived when the sun was rising, but right at that mont, it was almost noon… Luke knew that if they didn’t hurry up, they would reach Ro, but at a difficult ti, fighting at night might be troubleso. In the worst-case scenario, they will have to delay the trip to the next day… Fortunately, everything was ready for departure, but there was one problem. Many survivors approached the airplane when the soldiers cleared the area. Naturally, they wanted to leave the city with them.

“Oh, man…” Billy said and then sighed.

“What should we do?” Amanda asked.

“There is nothing to do… we don’t have enough room to transport anyone else,” Billy said. “I will try to convince them.”

Convince them to do what? That was what Luke wanted to ask while he saw Billy moving away. He wanted to leave as soon as possible, but then his eagerness decreased a little when he saw so families among that group. There were even kids among them… they looked pretty much physically and ntally exhausted since they couldn’t fight and had to endure the fear of death pretty much every mont along the last week.

“I wonder if there is sothing we can do for them…” Rina said.

“It must be a wonderful way of living, constantly worrying about soone else’s problems…” Shalia said and then sighed. “Either you are a moron, or you have too much free ti in your hands. In you case, I would bet in both.”

Luke felt bad for them, but while he could give them a hand, he wouldn’t because that would never end. Once he starts letting his conscience bother with that kind of feeling all the ti, the sa thing will happen again and again… Luke was probably the last person in the world that fit to play the role of a hero, after all.

After a while, Billy returned, and apparently, after hearing about the situation, Frank said to take the survivors to Ro. He also said that once the soldiers secure the people they wanted to rescue, they should defeat as many zombies as possible that might be blocking the exits.

“Why did he decide that?” Luke asked.

“No idea,” Billy replied.

As long as Luke ets his parents, he wouldn’t mind fighting so zombies and securing the exits of the next city, but he didn’t feel like working without knowing the reason. Besides, what would Frank gain with that? Regardless, they returned to the airplane, and a lot more people were with them inside it. The survivors had many people to focus their eyes on, but they focused on Luke because of Rina and Shalia. At first, they thought that Luke was a weirdo who liked toys in weird shapes and appearances, but then they noticed that they were alive…. Fortunately, no one decided to bother him.

“You are popular, Luke,” Chloe said since the silence was really unnerving.

Luke ignored that because he had better things to worry about, he was about to see his parents again. While he talked with them ten days ago using his cellphone, he hadn’t seen them in five weeks, since he moved to the dorms of the college. Now that he thought about it, it was pretty silly, but he didn’t visit them in order not to make them think he was hosick. Since his father was really botherso, he would say that dozens of tis in an hour… Still, after experiencing the last week, Luke thought that such a thing was pointless, and those were the worries of a kid.

After a while, Billy left the cockpit of the airplane and then approached while making a difficult expression. Luke already could imagine that sothing botherso had happened… and his fears were right in the end.

“We have a problem…” Billy said and then sighed. “We received a ssage from the survivors in Ro, and it seems a new type of enemy appeared.”

“A new species of monster or…” Chloe said.

“That is right, is one of those big-ass monsters you ntioned,” Billy said. “He isn’t that big, but extrely powerful and troubleso.”

“What kind of monster originally appeared in Ro?” Luke asked.

“Goblins… and the one that appeared is a Goblin Champion apparently,” Billy replied. “Not only can he completely command the others, his presence apparently boosted their strength even further. He is also pretty smart… in a single day, he already decimated one of the four hordes of zombies that were blocking the exits of the town.”

“But…” Chloe said.

“But he put his minions to guard the exit, and right at this mont, they are trying to make another one,” Billy replied.

That was bad… zombies were easy to handle for Luke, but the goblins apparently would be much more troubleso. Considering that they decimated a horde, their levels should have increased quite a lot… Just when Luke was about to reach his goals, sothing like that happened. His luck was really the worst.
