214 Suspicious Item

"Did McKinley not sent anyone to sweep the entire city? To look for any potential threats?"

Leo grumbled as he tried to shake off the chasing zombies behind him, after all, he's only purpose is to lure the [Darkseeker] into a s.p.a.cious where he could fight the zombie freely, with no worries of being ganged up.

Of course, what Leo didn't know is that McKinley would always send a sweep team twice a week, to sweep the entire city, where the team would be led by two or three mutants.

And including the president, there is a total of nine mutants residing in the community surrounding the White House as the center.

Leo then took out his DMR, and started shooting the chasing zombies, as he towards them and was leaping backwards in retreat!

Ratata.. Ratata... Pratatatatat~!

He shot them one by one, and before long, he started sending a burst of fire towards the [Darkseeker] that managed to catch up to him, and now there is only a hundred meter distance between them!

And when the [Darkseeker] was just ten meters away from him..

Leo suddenly pulled out a rocket launcher, and quickly pulled the trigger, as 60mm diameter shaped charge warhead flew towards the [Darkseeker] !

Boom!

And because of the close proximity and of the sudden attack, and with the [Darkseeker] not knowing that Leo had the ability to pull out items from out of nowhere, the rocket warhead directly struck its head, sending it flying back as it rolled on the ground for a couple of times before it managed to stabilize itself!

"Was it fun chasing me, huh!?" Leo grinned widely.

Both of them arrived in the middle of a park, and now that Leo killed off the zombies chasing him earlier, he was now left alone with the [Darkseeker].

"Did you think you can win against me just because I'm alone?" the [Darkseeker] snickered coldly as it slowly stood up from the ground.

"Cheh!" Leo spit on the ground as he felt disgusted watching the [Darkseeker] in front of him.

It was because every single [Darkseeker] he had met so far had the same disgusting appearance. 

It was because they almost have the same appearance as the Colossus t.i.tan from the anime Attack on t.i.tan, their surfaces are covered primarily in muscle tissue and lack skin. They have proportionally small eyes and lip-less mouths which expose their teeth and he had also discovered that every [Darkseeker] would have the same scent that accompanies them, and one would realize that a [Darkseeker] is nearby when they smell that kind of strong sulfuric and ash like smell.

Snap!

"Of course, I know that killing you alone would still be impossible..but how about this...then?" Leo grinned as he snapped his fingers.

And under the shocked gaze of the [Darkseeker], a huge rift appeared behind Leo, as a man wearing military clothes of unknown origin stepped out.

"Commander!" Alex called out as he struck his chest, then finally turned his attention towards the [Darkseeker], his eyes flashed golden for a few seconds before returning to normal.

"It seems quite a bit of a formidable opponent has appeared, commander" Alex commented after gauging the zombie's ability.

"What do you think? Can you kill it?" Leo turned to Alex, ignoring the murderous gaze of the [Darkseeker], directed at both of them.

Boom!

"Leave it to me, commander" Alex said, as he suddenly rushed out towards the [Darkseeker] without any hesitation, as the ground beneath him cracked.

"Arrogant thing!" the [Darkseeker] growled with anger as it also charged forward towards Alex.

"Hmmp" Alex just cooly snorted as he punched out, and the [Darkseeker] also did the same.

Boom!

Both of their fist collided with each other, producing a powerful shockwave with both of them as the center!

"Arggh!"

A cry of anger suddenly echoed, as the [Darkseeker] was sent flying and slammed into a huge tree that towers at least two hundred meters in height!

"Dumba.s.s, even I can't take a single punched from him if Alex is going all out, and your just a little bit stronger than me" Leo snickered with his arms crossed over his chest.

Thud!

The [Darkseeker] fell down from the pit it created from the tree's trunk and slammed onto the ground.

"Cough! Cough!" the [Darkseeker] started coughing up black blood, as it clutched its dented chest.

Thud..Thud..Thud

The [Darkseeker] weakly looked up when it heard multiple footsteps coming towards its direction, and saw two people walking over, and one of them is someone very familiar, wearing some kind of a military uniform, a man with a triangular-shaped face with a pointed chin, a greek nose, with a well defined cheekbones and a full lips. His cleanly cut black hair and sharp eyebrows were quite distinctive, as every part of his body exudes the air of a military man with an authority.

"Kukuku, you..win..I just don't understand why...you needed to lure me all the way here" the [Darkseeker] started coughing up black blood between words.

"Let's just say...I have many secrets" Leo said coldly said, as he raised his sword above him his head and swung down at the defenseless [Darkseeker].

[You have levelled up!]

[You have levelled up!]

"Nice!" Leo said, as he swung his sword to get rid of the disgusting vile blood.

Leo then turned to Alex, and said, "Thank you, Alex, you can go back now"

"Yes, commander" Alex struck his chest, as a rift appeared behind him, and disappeared through there.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

Then Leo kicked the corpse at his feet, revealing two items in front of his eyes.

Leo bent down and picked them up one by one, as he started inspecting them.

One of them is an Injection Gun, full of blood red liquid and the other item was a small figurine of a woman dressed in clothes almost similar to ancient greeks.

And when he tried to get information from it.

[?????]

"What?"

"Hey System, what is this thing?" Leo asked as he continued to inspect the thing on his hand.

[...]

"Oi! What the heck is this? Why aren't you answering me?" Leo said when he noticed that he's receiving any answers from the [System].

"Why aren't you answering? Oi!"

'd.a.m.n, why isn't the System answering me? This is too suspicious, why did the [Darkseeker] had this thing with it?' Leo thought suspiciously, as he stored inside his [Inventory] for future research once he goes back.

And the other item is an antidote in case someone gets bitten by a zombie, in which he carefully stored inside his [Inventory] s.p.a.ce.

Then he opened his [Map] and checked his surroundings.

"It seems they weren't able to follow me all the way here" Leo muttered under his breath, when he saw that there are no life signals of nearby humans.

Then he started making his way back towards the direction of the White House...when he suddenly stopped in his tracks as a sudden realization just struck him.

"Wait.."

"The horde of mutant zombies never appeared until I arrived here...the timing was too coincidental as they suddenly started appearing the minute I landed here"

"And the figurine that has no information...the [System] suddenly not answering my questions!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.

"Everything...is too suspicious!"

"I need to see what's happening inside the underground metro!"

Leo then change directions and hastily made his way towards the underground metro!
