Chapter 82 Little Girl

Chapter 82 Little Girl

On the way back, everyone was a little silent. No one had gotten over the fear of the pink tentacle monster.

Leon drove a modified off-road vehicle and led the way. Peggy, Kevella, and Michonne sat beside him, each with their own concerns.

Behind the car, Sherman was driving a large black truck alone. The unconscious wounded man was lying on the passenger seat with his face wrapped in thick bandages.

As the only two men in the team, Sherman was sent here to transport the corpse samples of the mutated zombies and their remaining weapons and equipment.

It wasn't until the off-road vehicle left Roberta County that the knife girl Michonne asked in her slightly hoarse voice:
"So, what is that monster?"

"Are there any zombies with pink tentacles?"

Everyone was a little absent-minded. Peggy peeked at her boss with deer-like eyes, her face full of worry. Kewela held a lollipop in her mouth, put her hands on the back of her head, looked at the sky, and thought empty.

Leon held the steering wheel with one hand, glanced at everyone, pinched his eyebrows, and said:
"I don't know what kind of monster it is, no one can know."

"However, everyone can rest assured for the time being. Before the nuclear materials in the reactor are consumed, the monster should not escape from the underground facility for at least 10 years."

When Keweila heard this, he raised his head and snorted, and said:

"Hmph! Such a monster appeared in less than a year. In 10 years, who knows what will come out."

Leon glanced at the red-haired girl through the rearview mirror and said:

"We are only concerned about the risk of leakage at the nuclear power plant, so we cannot use heavy weapons there."

"After it comes out of there and comes to the wide ground, do you think that a monster made of flesh and blood can still withstand attacks from missiles, incendiary bombs or cloud bombs?"

The red-haired girl rolled her eyes and hummed:
"Ten years from now, who knows what the world will look like. Maybe by then, humans will have become extinct, or have degenerated into the Middle Ages, maybe."

However, no matter what the red-haired girl said, Leon's explanation made everyone feel secretly relieved.

Yes, no matter how powerful that monster is, it is just a living target in front of mankind's high-tech weapons that can destroy the world.

A few seconds later, Leon's voice came faintly.

"You all remember that things about the tentacle monster must be kept secret. Don't let ordinary people know about it."

"They already have too much fear in their hearts. Don't let their fragile hearts be stimulated any more."

Everyone was silent, and the off-road vehicle quickly drove to Atlanta.

A few days later, a grand funeral was held at the Umbrella Company's base. The nine sacrificed security soldiers were called heroes of human revival by Lyon and were mourned by everyone.

Their names were engraved on a huge golden obelisk made of pure gold and displayed inside the base as a memorial to their heroic sacrifice.

Lyon also announced on the spot that in future battles, the families of all employees who sacrificed their lives for the umbrella company will receive 50% of his weekly salary as a pension every week for 20 years.

This policy was immediately welcomed by all employees, helping him win over a wave of people within the company and strengthening employees' sense of belonging to the company.

Although there are sacrifices, life must go on.

After obtaining many body samples of mutated zombies, the researchers in the umbrella base were all in a frenzy and busy state. They worked around the clock, wishing to spend 24 hours a day on research. It seemed that even dangerous The end has become insignificant to them too.

The night he returned to the base, Leon told Dr. Melfa, Colonel William, Professor Jacob and other seven or eight senior members of the company about the pink tentacle monster. They talked for a long time and exchanged ideas. With their own guesses about the future, everyone ended the meeting with solemn expressions.Eventually, they reached a consensus to suspend all exploration of nuclear power plants and other similar areas until the Umbrella Company's strength had grown strong enough.

That pink tentacle monster is also named, Super Mutant.

After escaping from death this time, Leon also let go of some of his pride as a time traveler and reflected on his many wrong actions in the past. In his free time after completing his work, he began to exercise his personal combat effectiveness more diligently.

Not only do he often practice various firearms and hone his physical fitness in all aspects, but he also often works with Colonel William and other soldiers to hone his military fighting abilities.

Even his favorite indescribable things with several girls have dropped from twice a day to two or three times a week.

Half a month passed quickly, and the atmosphere in the base gradually eased from sadness.

Suddenly one day, Rick sent an invitation saying that his daughter had been born, and he hoped to invite Dr. Lyon, who had treated Lori, to attend tonight's dinner.

Leon was surprised for a while, but looked at the time again. Indeed, more than 9 months have passed since Lori became pregnant. According to the physique of Europeans and Americans, this child should indeed have been born for several days.

He did not refuse Rick's banquet. That night, he wore a decent white suit and took Amy, who was wearing a slim purple evening dress, to attend the dinner hosted by Rick's house.

The dinner was held in the lobby on the first floor of a high-end hotel. After Colonel William and others joined the umbrella company, the high-end hotel also began normal operations and was responsible for receiving those with temporary housing needs. The main target was from other bases. Come over here, those migrant workers who don't have housing.

The banquet hall on the first floor is also open for rental, suitable for various luncheons, dinners, weddings and funerals. In view of the principle of diligence and frugality during the end of the world, the fees here are relatively high. Some employees from the logistics department have also been transferred here to provide long-term services. born.

However, these expenses are not a big burden for Rick and Sean, the two senior combatants of the security department.

When Leon and Amy arrived, he found that many people were already in the banquet hall.

Moore, Daryl, Glenn, T-boy, Andrea, and many other survivors who had been with Lori in the quarry camp.

Jim, Quinn, Dale Sr., the Morales family and more.

Leon even saw Carol chatting with Loli in a wheelchair. The two women comforted each other with tears in their eyes.

Beside them, the two children, Karl and Sophia, were playing and playing together with smiles on their faces.

Seeing these people gathering together happily, Leon unconsciously felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart. Different from the tragic endings in the original plot, it was precisely because of his efforts that these kind-hearted people did not end up in the doomsday. They lost their lives and their most cherished relatives, but they are now living well.

Soon, someone noticed the arrival of the big boss.

Rick immediately held a baby in his arms, and with a happy smile on his face, surrounded by Sean and other macho men, he quickly walked to the door to greet the two of them.

"Mr. Lyon, Miss Amy, you are finally here."

"We are chatting right now. It is precisely because of your help that those of us who are wandering in the apocalypse can survive until now and enjoy the happiness at this moment."

"Only to see the birth of this new life."

He handed the baby girl in his hand, whose skin was slightly wrinkled and looked a bit clownish, to Leon and said:
"Her name is Judith, my daughter. Would you like to give her a hug? Mr. Lyon."

Looking at the baby girl with big round eyes in Rick's hand, Leon reached out and picked her up.

"Of course, the first baby born in this apocalypse, she seems to symbolize the rebirth of our humanity."
