Chapter 102 Temporary Quarters
Kyle found the man with only one eye visible to be deeply unsettling. The other party’s seemingly fervent gaze actually brimmed with cunning. It made him extremely ufortable. Thus, he frowned in displeasure upon learning that Theresa had recruited such a person.
Ignoring the outstretched hand, he turned to Theresa. “What about the pigs inside, Theresa? Do you need me to get them?”
Quentin piped up before Theresa could answer. “No need! I’m a domain-type ability user! I’ve already stored the pigs away.”
“You’re a domain-type ability user?” The statement made Kyle stare at Quentin in surprise.
“That’s right.” Quentin crossed his arms over his chest. “With me on the team, you’ll never have to worry about supplies again!”
ncing at Theresa as he spoke, he shed a wide grin at her. He sidled closer to Theresa while Kyle was distracted and whispered with a sly chuckle, ‘It’ll be our little secret, Beautiful.”
“Alright.” Looking at the incredibly clever man before her. Theresa gave him a foxlike smile in return. If she hadn’t already known about what kind of person he was, she might have been swayed by his wit and seemingly thoughtful gestures.
He was a very perceptive man indeed. Having noticed how she sent Kyle away carlier, he immediately inferred from such a small detail that she wanted to keep her domain-type ability a secret and stepped forward to cover for her.
What a cunning fox. No wonder he caused so much chaos among the various camps in my previous life.
“Let’s go.”
“Sure, Beautiful.”
Quentin followed behind Theresa with his arms still folded across his chest. His single visible eye gleamed brightly as he watched her back.
Although Theresa managed to seize the pig farm, the nearby chicken farm was a lost cause. All the chicks were dead. Fortunately, she had already stockpiled many chickens and ducks in her bunker. She didn’t need more at the moment.
Afterwards, she instructed Quentin and Kyle to deal with the chicken farm. The entire structure was burned to the ground.
With that, the hidden dangers lurking in the major livestock zone werepletely eliminated. The widespread animal gue that would ravage the camps in the future had been nipped in the bud.
On the return trip, Quentin sat in the back of the armored vehicle. He was brimming with excitement and curiosity as he examined the sleek interior of the vehicle.
“Where did you get such a treasure, Beautiful?”
“Only ask what’s necessary. Don’t question anything else,” Theresa snapped coldly.
For some reason, he became even more enthusiastic in response to her cold attitude. “Hey, Beautiful. Is it true that it’ll only be the three of us in the camp?”
Surprised, Kyle nced at Theresa from the driver’s seat.
Theresa answered firmly, “That’s right.”
“So, where is the camp?”
“At the food processing nt.”
A momentter, shemanded, “Kyle, drive us back to camp.”
“Okay!” Kyle instantly replied. Though he was stunned by the situation, he did not dare to ask or say anything more. He simply quietly drove them to the massive factory they had previously seized from the zombies.
The sight of the sprawling facility made Quentin’s eyes light up instantly. Did they take over such arge factory? Now that’s real strength!
When they left the facility previously, they had made sure to collect the zombie gleamstones and dispose of the zombie corpses. Everything had been incinerated to ashes afterwards, so the area had been kept rtively clean.
Theresa instructed Kyle to park by the dormitory building and turned to Quentin. “Pick any room you want on any floor you like. If you run into zombies… Well, you’re not afraid of them anyway.”
Quentin snorted in amusement. “Alright, Beautiful. I’m off to pick a room.
Staring at the man walking away, Kyle frowned even more deeply. He could sense the wild and unpredictable air swirling around the man. The other party clearly reeked of insincerity from head to toe. “Theresa, that guy definitely has ill intentions.”
As a former soldier, he could spot the other party’s shifty aura at a nce-Quentin was definitely not a good person.
“I know, that’s why I brought him here, “Theresa replied, climbing out of the vehicle.
Quentin might not be a good person, but neither was she.
She would never bring such a dangerous wildcard back to the actual camp. Anybody who approached her with a loyalty level of a measly 19 points was absolutely untrustworthy, let alone one who was nning to betray her from the beginning. Therefore, he would be kept outside until she could raise his loyalty level.
Kyle nodded thoughtfully, thinking her reasoning was rtively sound.
“What will happen to the camp if we’re not going back?”
“Tessa will be enough.”
Tessa would be able to keep the camp running smoothly in Theresa’s absence. She could even feed the dogs via the UAVs. Hence, it wouldn’t be a problem for Theresa to stay away for a few days.
Satisfied with the answers, Kyle had no more questions. He quickly followed Theresa into the dormitory.
They each picked a clean room as their own personal territory, pretending as though they had been living here for some time. The six dogs stayed with Kyle in his room.
Just as they were settling into their respective rooms, they suddenly heard Quentin’s voiceing from
outside.
