Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Alex's eyes were icy cold. He clenched his fists and charged forward.

"Hahaha."

The two collided with a tremendous crash, then separated.

"Let's see how long you can last," the man sneered and rushed at Alex again.

"Hmph!"

Alex snorted, his figure blurring as he dodged the attack. A ball of fire formed in his hand, and he slammed it into the man's chest.

"Ugh!"n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The man spat out a mouthful of blood, his face full of shock.

"How is this possible!"

He staggered back a few steps, incredulous.

"Nothing is impossible. Since you might be useful, I'll leave your body intact." Alex said coolly. The fact that this man was here meant he knew this building inside out. Alex needed to kill him and extract his memories.

"You think you can actually kill me?" the man wiped the blood from his mouth, speaking coldly.

"Let's find out," Alex replied with a cold smile, turning into a blur as he lunged at the man. He needed to extract his memories quickly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The two figures clashed repeatedly, the sounds of their battle echoing through the room. Suddenly, Alex seized an opportunity and landed a punch on the man's forehead, killing him instantly.

"Heh."

A faint smile played on Alex's lips as he began to search the man's memories. Once the extraction was complete, Alex couldn't suppress his grin. He never expected this place to be a storage site for the Mothman's high-tech weapons.

Moreover, since it was deep within their territory, it was scarcely guarded. This meant he could potentially take everything here without much resistance.

Alex took a deep breath to calm himself, then carefully surveyed the surroundings. After ensuring there were no dangers, he quietly slipped into a secret chamber.

The chamber was vast and filled with various items, but the most striking were the weapons displayed on the walls. Each one was a powerful high-tech firearm.

A gleam appeared in Alex's eyes as he began collecting the weapons.

"This one looks good. I'll take it."

He selected a sniper rifle and then left the chamber.

"Aiken, what are you doing here?"

As soon as he stepped out, a cold voice reached Alex's ears.

"Hm?"

Alex turned to see a man glaring at him coldly. The man exuded a strong killing intent, looking as if he wanted to tear Alex apart.

"Carl?"

Alex furrowed his brow as he recognized the man.

"Aiken, why are you here?" Carl asked, his gaze sharp and penetrating.

"Why I'm here is none of your business," Alex replied coldly, giving Carl a dismissive look.

"Hmph, stealing weapons from here is a serious crime. Your audacity has grown," Carl said, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Heh, so what? Don't I have the right to do this?" Alex replied arrogantly, knowing the original Aiken had a very special status.

"There's no problem as long as you're happy. But let me warn you, don't touch what you shouldn't," Carl said, his eyes flashing with a cold light.

"Are you lecturing me?" Alex's eyes narrowed as he spoke coldly.

"I wouldn't dare. Since you're fine, we'll meet again," Carl said with a mocking smile before turning and leaving.

"This guy…"

Alex muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with cold light. He knew Carl was threatening him, but he didn't care.

"Since you put it that way, I'd be remiss not to clean this place out."

Alex smirked coldly. He had come this far, and it would be a waste not to take anything. He walked over to another door and slowly pushed it open.

Creak…

The heavy iron door opened.

Alex stepped inside.

"These are all treasures."

Seeing the array of items inside, Alex's eyes lit up with excitement. The room was filled with powerful explosives, advanced firearms, and high-tech weapons. There were also numerous medicines and other resources, making it a treasure trove perfectly suited to his needs.

He didn't hesitate. Alex pulled out the spatial storage device gifted by the system and began frantically collecting everything inside.

Half an hour later, he finally stopped, satisfied with his haul, and left the room.

"This was quite the jackpot," Alex said with a bright smile as he walked away. Today had been incredibly rewarding; the trip had been more than worth it.

But before he could fully relish his success, as he exited the building, he saw Carl.

Carl was watching him with a mocking look, holding a holographic projector.

"I've recorded everything you just did. Hand over all the items, and I'll pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, I'll submit this video, and you know very well what will happen to you," Carl said, his tone dripping with menace.

Carl spoke coldly, his eyes filled with intense killing intent.

Alex's brows furrowed. This guy had truly surprised him, setting up a trap like this.

"Aren't you afraid I'll just kill you?" Alex's eyes were cold, and his body radiated a menacing aura, like a bloodthirsty demon, terrifying to behold.

"Hahaha!"

Carl threw his head back and laughed, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Aiken, I admit you have exceptional talent, but do you dare attack me here?" Carl looked at Alex with disdain.

Hearing this, Alex laughed. This guy was clearly unaware of his own limits.

"How about this, we split the items inside fifty-fifty. What do you say?" Alex suggested calmly.

"Do you think I'd agree to that?" Carl sneered.

"In that case, you can go to hell."

Alex's eyes flashed with a cold glint. He stepped forward suddenly, appearing before Carl in an instant, and swung his fist at him.

Bang.

Carl reacted quickly, raising his hand to block Alex's attack. The collision produced a deafening roar, and Carl's face turned red as he staggered back a few steps.

Soon, the man's body emitted a red glow, followed by a terrifying aura.

"Damn it!" Alex cursed under his breath, surprised that the man had hidden his true strength.

Though the man's power now surpassed his own by a significant margin, Alex wasn't afraid. He had a way to counter him. As long as the man didn't use his special abilities, Alex could easily take him down.

"Don't bother trying; you can't kill me!" the man laughed wildly, then flashed towards Alex with immense speed.
