Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Not a single canned food or packaged ready-to-eat item!

Everything was freshly picked and prepared!

As the couple was still in shock and awe at the luxurious dishes in front of them, the maids began serving the main course!

In addition to fragrant white rice, there were noodles, steamed buns, mantou, and pancakes to choose from.

And there were also desserts and fruits after the meal.

The fruits were undoubtedly fresh!

Peaches, plums, watermelons, tomatoes...

Xiao Mu swallowed hard. Since the apocalypse, they hadn't had such fresh meals for over three months!

Every day, they could at most have instant noodles and canned food, and occasionally, the man could have a meal of rice or noodles.

But what was laid out in front of them, he never dreamed he could enjoy in his lifetime!

And here his cousin said that today was unexpected, and there was nothing special to eat, just something casual to manage?

Turns out, his cousin was eating like this every day here?!!!

"What are you two staring at? Eat!"

Alex smiled casually, waved his hand, and started cutting into the steak.

The maid who had been waiting by his side immediately poured the already sobered red wine into Alex's goblet.

Alex leisurely lifted the goblet, elegantly swirled it, and said to his sister-in-law, Tang Wanshow, "Cheers..."

After saying that, he clinked glasses with Tang Wanshow, took a sip of red wine.

Tang Wanshow gazed in fascination at Alex's elegant and noble demeanor, took a sip of wine, and her mind became a whirlwind of confusion.

"Miss, is your leader not joining us for the meal? Or does the leader prefer to dine alone? Why haven't we seen your leader... Is it inappropriate for us to start eating first like this?"

With a smiling face, Xiao Mu asked the fairy-like beauty standing beside Alex.

Xiao Mu's brain was starting to work actively now. Even a country bumpkin like his cousin could receive such appreciation from the leader here. Xiao Mu thought that if he could find a way to please the leader more, he might gain even greater favor and have a prosperous future here. Moreover, he was an esper—a person with supernatural abilities—more capable than his cousin.

The recognition he could receive must be even greater!

Most importantly, it seemed that apart from his cousin, there were no other men around. Male presence might be a scarce resource here, and the leader would surely appreciate a man with supernatural abilities and competence. However, in the next moment, the ethereal beauty standing next to Alex spoke, "Leader? We don't have a leader here. Everything is subject to the arrangements of our master."

The fairy-like beauty furrowed her brows, expressing some confusion.

And by master, she naturally referred to his cousin—Alex!

Xiao Mu suddenly felt like he was struck by lightning.

In an instant, he understood everything.

This place belonged to his cousin, Alex!

Everything here was Alex's!

Meanwhile, Alex's sister, Tang Wanshow, stood there with her mouth wide open, wearing an expression of disbelief.

She had vaguely suspected that Alex's identity here was not simple, but she never thought that her cousin would turn out to be the owner of this city!

"Alex... is this your territory? All of this belongs to you?!" Tang Wanshow swallowed nervously, staring at Alex in astonishment, her eyes filled with admiration.

Alex nodded calmly, "Yes, everything here is mine."

"Ah!" Tang Wanshow's voice began to tremble.

In her eyes, there was not only admiration but also a hint of affection. Since Alex appeared, she had been constantly comparing him to her husband, Xiao Mu. The more she compared, the more she felt a chill in her heart, growing more repulsed by her husband. Her admiration and adoration for Alex had reached an unparalleled level.

"Little... Alex... can we stay here? Rest assured, we won't be idle; we can do any kind of work! Alex, I'm also an esper. As long as I train more, I will definitely be able to help you a lot in the future!"

Xiao Mu looked at Alex with a pleading expression, his face showing a demeanor of eager accommodation. They had witnessed Alex's strength, and if he could take them in, they could lead a stable and happy life in this apocalyptic world. However, if Alex was dissatisfied and wanted to drive them away, their original refuge was already destroyed, and they would have to search for a new one.

In a world filled with zombies, finding another refuge and sustenance would be a challenging task.

Now, the couple could only hope that Alex would show mercy, considering their past relationship and Xiao Mu's usefulness as an esper, allowing them to stay.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a dozen well-equipped warriors walked in from outside. They were armed with guns, knives, and arrows, and they bowed and half-knelt in front of Alex, who was being served by two beautiful women, saying, "Reporting to the master, today we hunted one B-class zombie and thirty-five C-class zombies. They have been stored in the Hall of the Deceased.

In addition, we captured more than ten survivors. Please make a decision, master."

These people walked with a powerful stride, exuding an aura akin to hungry wolves. It was evident they were well-trained warriors. Every weapon they carried was of the highest quality. Moreover, a few of them displayed an extraordinary aura, subtly revealing traits of individuals with supernatural abilities.

Especially the leader, a half-human, half-wolf young man, clearly stood out as a formidable mutant.

Xiao Mu was certain that he wouldn't last a minute against these people.

"There seem to be too few zombies around. The number of mutated zombies in this area is decreasing. Pippi, go around and lure some more over," Alex casually commanded.

"In addition, bring those survivors here for me to see."

"Yes, master!" The warriors knelt down with utmost respect, bowing to Alex before respectfully withdrawing. Their demeanor showed immense reverence for Alex, resembling eunuchs in the presence of an emperor.

Xiao Mu coughed awkwardly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and weakly asked Alex, "Little... cough... Alex, um, these soldiers seem to be esper users? I can sense that... they're all quite powerful..."

Xiao Mu couldn't fathom why there were so many powerful individuals and beautiful women, all unquestioningly following his cousin's every command. Why did his cousin, in the eyes of these people, seem like a god-like figure?

What has my cousin been through during this post-apocalyptic period? Could my cousin be exceptionally powerful too? Is he also an esper? And then, these people elected him as their leader!

Yes, that must be it! Xiao Mu's mind started speculating.

"Oh," Alex casually responded with a smile. "These people are just my dogs. You're right, they are indeed espers. Among my subordinates, they are probably the least powerful espers."
