Alchemist In The Apocalypse: Rise Of A Legend!

Familiar Faces

[Ace POV],

We arrived at the camp without incident, just as the sun was lowering.

The 'camp' here was actually an estate on the upper end.

There was a beyond-destroyed gate at the estate's entrance, and everything I stepped on was covered in blood and black blood.

The first houses I saw were also damaged in various ways.

Though this scene faded as I went deeper into the estate, there were still remnants of wreckage.

When we eventually got at the 'camp' where people were, I gazed around.

The camp was actually positioned deep within the estate, among high-end houses.

Even though this estate was filled with high-end buildings for the wealthy, there were still levels that distinguished them.

Some were exceptional, while others were average.

Though I couldn't view the complete outer and inner perimeter of the camp from where I was, I could see how this self-built camp was constructed.

This people actually used cars to make a fence as a kind of defense.

The car, whether abandoned, destroyed, or new, was utilized as a barricade to establish a line of defense.

And, as I see it, it was to make a circle around some structures on the estate, and within this circle was the shelter or camp.

It was impressive that they could create something like this for a camp that had only been open for two days.

I could see there was a lot of manpower put into this, and looking at the cars placed on top of each other, I could tell there were strong people in the camp.

I have no idea how powerful they are.

But they should be strong enough if they could carry cars and stack them upon of each other and wipe out the zombies in the estate.

I didn't come across any zombies on my way here, from the estate's gate to the estate's interior.

It also demonstrates that individuals from the camp were routinely clearing up this area from them in order to avoid the zombies from being plentiful.

Good.

As we approached the camp's 'gate,' the people by the 'gate' recognized us and began to move in our direction, their weapons lifted and staring at us with caution.

Their weapons were no better than the inferior-grade steel sword in my storage ring.

At the very least, it was better than nothing.

And the gate was essentially merely a gap between the car barricades.

And I'm guessing that if they want to close it, they'll have to put something in there that fits.

When the team leader who led us here noticed the people defending the gate approaching us, he immediately left our side and rushed to the approaching party side, where he discussed some things.

I'm not sure what they talked about, but I noticed the guards at the entrance approaching us before taking short glances at me and my team while they were talking with the middle-aged man who led us here.

I'm not sure how long their debate lasted, but when it did, the team leader that led us here returned to our side with a smile on his face and spoke, stating;

"It's all settled now, just a routine check by the guard. We can now enter "He continued to lead the way as he remarked.

And, as he stated, my team and I were able to enter the camp without incident, though I did notice the soldiers at the gate taking a quick glance.

I discovered that the car barricade fence still had two layers at the back after passing past the 'gate' and entering the camp.

If someone was to can on the barricade, he could completely lie down straight.

This shows how long and thick the barricade appears from the side.

I was going to resume my observation of the camp when the middle-aged man who had brought me here interrupted me.

"Sir," he began, grabbing my attention and pointing to a certain place.

From his motion, I understood it was business time, so I nodded and he led the way once more.

I have to say that from what I've seen of the camp, the management was excellent, and I doubt I'd be able to recreate it if I had the same resources.

And here's the thing: even if I could, I wouldn't set up a camp.

But I couldn't deny that the camp was excellent.

And glancing around, I could tell that even though the people walking around hadn't totally adapted, they could still walk in peace.

The question was how long this peace would persist.

As I was thinking about these things, we arrived at a line that led to a house garage, and seeing the sacks in the hands of the individuals on the line, I knew this was where the people who were looking for supplies would submit them.

We could only wait for our turn after getting in the queue.

Perhaps because she was tired of not doing anything, Anna who held the sleeping mia in her hands tried to start a conversation with me.

I said tried because am one not good with causal conversations and can only reply with little words but it appeared she did not mind and she continued talking.

The others on the line were also talking with their teammate so we did not gather attention.

Finally it was our turn to enter the garage just after the people in front of me are through with whatever they're doing.

Putting my hand on my chin, i was thinking of how I would mazimize my profit since i did bring a lot of supplies for ther team that lead me here.

And it was not as simple as twice of what they could carry if i didn't help.

It was more than thrice.

As i was thinking about these things, i also thought of what i could ask in case they did not have crystal core.

I was not worried about being forced to drop the supplies.

I was confident about the damage my team and i could cause if they tried to do so.

That is if i don't somehow run into the strongest specie on the planet.

As i was thinking of these things, the team in front of us were already through with their business, so it was our turn.

As we entered inside the garage, i still had my hand on my chin with my head down as i was still thinking.

I wasn't going to be the one to start the conversation so i still had some time to finalize some things in my head but just few seconds immediately i entered, i heard my name being called.

Hearing the somewhat familiar voice i was confused so i raised my head up and was stunned when i saw the familiar faces in front of me.
