Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system
148 Who is he?
So Shirley quickly told Duane and Alvin about the scene she had seen on the monitoring screen.
"What? A powerful stranger?" Hearing Shirley's words, Duane instantly became serious. He had suspected that the inexplicable second red light appearance this time might involve the participation of an esper. But he didn't expect a strange esper to appear so soon.
According to Shirley's description, this person had a formidable presence, had their own team, and even had a beast companion, with the lowest level being at the commanding level. This lineup was enough to make anyone envious. Could it really be this stranger?
Upon hearing Shirley's words, a look of confusion appeared on Alvin's face, followed by a sense of relief. His right hand, which was holding the dragon-headed cane, slowly relaxed.
"Shirley, quickly bring up the video of this person!" After pondering for a moment, Duane hurriedly instructed Shirley. Seeing her captain so serious, Shirley also became nervous. She nodded and quickly stood up, walking to the computer. She rewound the time by five hours, and the screen displayed David's image once again.
At this moment, David faced a group of zombies but didn't attack. Instead, he used his own presence to create an absolute battleground. Then he let Duke and another person enter this battleground and started training against the zombies. Little Black remained crouched by his side, constantly on alert for the surroundings.
Although David didn't make a move throughout, the strength he exuded and his absolute authority left Duane shocked. From the first glimpse of David's back, Duane felt that this man was not an ordinary person. The more he looked down, the more serious his expression became.
He realized that no matter from which angle he looked, the strength of this man on the screen surpassed any member of their Phoenix Rising team. This instantly astonished him.
"There's actually an esper with such formidable strength in this world? Not only does he have a combat team, but he even has a powerful beast companion. Who is he?" For a moment, Duane's brow furrowed tightly.
Leading the Phoenix Rising team, Duane had been monitoring every detail of this city for more than a decade. It could be said that he had seen every survivor here, and he knew the abilities of each one of them. He even knew everything about the Rat Clan that always hid in the sewers. Yet, this man on the screen was particularly unfamiliar to him. No matter how he tried to recall, he had no memory of this person.
"Could he be related to the appearance of the second red light?" Duane wondered in his mind. He speculated that this strange man might have come from a mysterious place, namely a wormhole. He had heard about such a legend from the previous team captain.
It was said that when the red light appeared, a wormhole would also appear in the sky. This wormhole was extremely hidden, and only esper level 7 or above could find it. At the other end of the wormhole was a mysterious world, inhabited by various incredibly powerful espers and various resources that could help people survive in the apocalypse.
But at the same time, it also concealed various dangers, which could be divided into two categories. One was the treacherous espers who harbored ill intentions, seeking to use their formidable power to dominate this world. The other was the high-ranking zombies who guarded the resources, attacking any survivors that appeared.
However, becoming a level 7 esper was an extremely difficult task. There were also others who used some special methods to detect the position of the wormhole, causing harm to the survivors.
When Duane first heard the captain tell this story, he didn't believe it at all. The captain looked at his youthful face and smiled, then reached out and patted his shoulder, saying, "There are too many unknown horrors in this world. Slowly, you will discover them. When the day comes that you can witness these horrors with your own eyes, I hope you will stand up like a warrior. Remember, the terrifying thing is not these horrors, but human nature. When the day comes that you are willing to gaze into the abyss of human nature, I hope you will still have the courage you have now." Duane remembered that when the captain said these words, his eyes were filled with decline and disappointment, but also with a hint of determination.
Then, in the evening of that day, the captain mysteriously died during a zombie siege. The entire team was left with only Alvin and Duane. At the time, Duane didn't understand what the captain meant by those words. But after seeing his lifeless body, he seemed to understand what the captain had said. In the face of horror, one must stand up bravely like a warrior.
Duane watched David's figure and slowly stood up. Although he didn't know if this young man was the one behind the second red light appearance, he didn't want to miss any opportunities. Otherwise, he would never be able to face the captain's spirit in the afterlife. So Duane silently nodded and took note of David's location.
"Captain, what's going on?" Shirley had been by Duane's side the whole time, so she saw every change in his expression. This instantly made her confused.
You see, normally Duane wasn't a suspicious person. Why was he acting so unusually today? Moreover, Shirley seemed to sense an indescribable fear in his reaction just now. This made her unable to help but look at the man on the screen. Who was he, the person who could make their level 5 Gold Esper captain inexplicably fearful? Could his strength surpass even that of the captain?
But in Shirley's eyes, Duane's strength was already at the ceiling level for survivors. How could anyone surpass him? So she stared at Duane, her face full of puzzlement.
At this moment, Duane spoke up, "Shirley, for the next few days, keep a close eye on this stranger from home. I may be gone for a while. Remember, if you encounter danger, immediately let Sky fire notify the nearby members of the other teams. They will arrive within two minutes."
Upon hearing that Duane was going out and even wanted her to stay at home, Shirley immediately understood that Duane must be going to search for some clues. She nodded and readily agreed.
Meanwhile, Alvin, who had been silent by their side, suddenly stood up. Holding his dragon-headed cane, he seemed to be taking a leisurely stroll as he slowly walked out of the base. Once outside the base and making sure that neither Duane nor Shirley noticed him, a series of sparks spread around Alvin. Then he disappeared within the midst of these sparks...
