Three hours later, inside Gray Bear City Hospital.
"So, let me get this straight. You single-handedly fought your way to the airport and brought her with you?" Angelica looked at Derick with disbelief written all over her face.
It wasn't that Angelica didn't believe him, but she knew her brother too well. With his limited skills and abilities, he might be decent in a fight, but breaking through hordes of zombies from home to the airport seemed like an impossible feat, let alone bringing Lisa, who was like a dead weight.
"Master, Master is really amazing~" Lisa chimed in, trying to support Derick. However, even though she knew that the elegant and intelligent beauty in front of her was Derick's sister, she didn't dare say much more.
Derick gave her a glare and quickly put on a smile. "Ahem... Some things are hard to explain, but don't worry, sis. I can handle dozens of zombies easily now. No problem."
"Hmph... You've grown up, huh? There are things you can't share with your sister now?" Angelica sneered, a cold and proud smile playing on her lips.
Derick awkwardly chuckled, feeling a cold sweat running down his back. In truth, he could have told his sister about the Apocalypse King System, but it was difficult to explain, so he decided not to mention it. After all, his sister wouldn't press him for details.
"Alright, since you're unwilling to talk about it, can your sister force you to spill the beans?" Angelica caressed Derick's cheek, displaying a look of a sister seeing her younger brother grow up.
Derick felt touched. His sister's love for him didn't need to be spoken, it was a bond that could withstand life and death. And her current attitude was just a playful way of expressing her displeasure at him disregarding her advice and risking his life to save her.
"Tell me, how did you come up with this idea? Why did you choose this place?" Angelica pointed towards the hospital building outside.
"As long as it's a place I've observed before, this hospital has more comprehensive facilities, and the surrounding environment is good.
Most importantly, while obtaining food and supplies isn't too difficult for me, medications are a different story. During the apocalypse, they're hard to produce and hold significant value," Derick explained.
When Derick obtained the Apocalypse King System, he had already considered how to develop in the future. First and foremost, establishing an initial force together was necessary, and Gray Bear City Hospital became his target.
The location was excellent. Just 500 meters to the east was the Gray Bear City Police Headquarters, making it easy to obtain firearms. There were also many supermarkets nearby, ensuring a readily available food source. Most importantly, there was a water purification plant nearby, and a clean water source was crucial during the apocalypse.
"First, we need to control this area and then gradually expand our influence throughout Gray Bear City," Derick didn't reveal his grand vision of unifying the whole world from the start. Such an idea would only sound like a fantasy.
"Alright, I'll help you," Angelica said solemnly. If Derick wanted to establish a safe haven for himself in the apocalypse, she would do everything in her power to assist him.
"Okay, sis, you should go rest for a while. It was a dangerous day," Angelica walked out and found a bathroom in a high-class ward to take a shower.
Derick hadn't finished clearing the hospital of zombies yet. He had only taken a detour from the back entrance of the hospital. Inside the two buildings in front of the hospital and on the open ground outside, there were still large groups of zombies.
Lost in thought, Derick noticed that his points were approaching 500, which meant he had killed over 500 zombies. However, the most significant number came from when he drove a truck and crushed over 300 of them at the airport.
What surprised Derick was that Lisa also gained points for killing those zombies. However, she only received 0.5 points for each kill.
"System, what's going on with this?" he asked.
[For hosts with a loyalty level of 80 or above, the host will receive half the points for killing zombies. For hosts with a loyalty level of 90 or above, they will receive the full points.]
The system explained coldly.
"Does that mean this little girl's loyalty to me is already over 80?" Derick looked at Lisa in astonishment. An 80 loyalty level was already quite high, just below the level of being willing to sacrifice oneself. With an 80 loyalty level, unless he did something outrageously wrong to her, she wouldn't betray him.
Lisa nervously looked at Derick, thinking he wanted something else. "Master, would you like me to assist you with washing up?" she asked anxiously.
"Sure," Derick wouldn't refuse such a seductive request. He was a normal man, and his physical attributes seemed to have improved significantly. He had been feeling the need for release but hadn't had the time until now.
Lisa's face turned so red it seemed like blood would drip out. This was her first encounter with a man, let alone serving someone in such a way. She hoped her master wouldn't get angry because of her inadequate service.
Since witnessing Derick's strength, Lisa had already developed a sense of subservience. After all, relying on a powerful man in such a dangerous environment as the apocalypse wasn't something to be ashamed of.
Moreover, he had already stated that he wouldn't abandon her after using her, so why not take advantage of the situation?
Not to mention the time in the airport control tower. When she agreed to Derick's dangerous plan, she feared he would abandon her while she was hiding alone, listening to the roars of the zombies. Thankfully, Derick didn't abandon her. At that moment of rescue, she truly regarded Derick as her reliance and even developed feelings of infatuation and admiration.
So, it wasn't a
bad thing to give her first time to such a powerful and aloof master. That's what Lisa thought.
"What are you thinking? Aren't you coming in?" Derick teased Lisa, who was hesitating outside the bathroom.
"Do you want to shower with your clothes on?" Derick smirked as he looked at Lisa's awkwardness, especially her shy and charming appearance. It made him want to pin her down and thoroughly enjoy himself.
"Ah... Yes... No..." Lisa raised her head and looked at Derick's naked body. She was momentarily stunned. "You look so handsome, with perfect muscle definition," Lisa praised silently. She glanced discreetly at his lower body, which was enormous and intimidating. She dared not look any longer.
Observing Lisa's reaction, Derick realized she was still inexperienced. It seemed promising, and his interest grew. He placed his hands on her fragrant shoulders and gently slid downward...
