Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

"You're right; your ability will indeed be very useful to me..." Alex's mocking voice echoed softly.

Just as the esper thought he had escaped, a sly sense of triumph gleaming in his eyes, Alex's cleaver descended lightly! The blade flashed, freezing the esper's sly smile in an instant, his head severed from his body.

Alex picked up the corpse, a sardonic smile playing on his lips.

Indeed, he needed this teleportation ability. If not for this esper reminding him, he might not have recalled it immediately.

After burying the Lightning King with electrokinetic abilities, he gained proficiency in lightning control. Therefore, burying this esper with teleportation abilities should have a high probability of acquiring the teleportation skill as well.

Having a subordinate with teleportation abilities was good, but having the skill directly would be even better.

Alex walked to a recently vacated level 3 grave and tossed the teleportation esper's corpse inside.

[Teleportation esper's corpse is being buried...]

[Requires 7 hours...]

The system's electronic synthesis sound announced the commencement of the burial of the teleportation esper's corpse.

"7 hours?! That long?" Alex was surprised.

In all the corpses he had buried, this was the first time encountering one that required such a long time. Moreover, this teleportation esper had mediocre physical attributes, except for a relatively strong mental attribute, not much different from an ordinary person.

"If it takes 7 hours, there's a great chance that this teleportation mutant's corpse will yield the teleportation skill!"

Alex nodded to himself and, after some contemplation, couldn't find any special qualities in the esper other than the teleportation skill that justified a 7-hour burial in a level 3 grave.

"If I can really obtain the teleportation skill, I might as well personally go to that military base and have some fun."

Originally, Alex planned to manipulate the puppet body of Antian Wei to accompany Shen Han and others in exploring the military base. However, now it seemed that if he could acquire the teleportation skill, Alex wouldn't need to worry too much about his safety. He could personally go to the military base and investigate the situation.

If conditions permitted, he might even take direct action and claim the military base as his own!

However, first, he needed to see if the corpse of the teleportation esper, which required a 7-hour burial, could indeed yield the teleportation skill. If so, he needed to determine the skill's range and the number of uses.

All of these were still unknowns. Therefore, Alex decided to temporarily postpone the plan to go to the military base.

Looking at his watch, it was already past 8 in the morning.

"I wonder if sister has settled in the outer city..." Alex mumbled to himself.

With 7 hours remaining until the burial was complete, he had some free time. If he wanted to go to the shelter at the military base, he needed to wait until after the burial to see if he obtained the teleportation skill before making a decision.

During this period, he was relatively free.

"Since there's nothing else to do, I'll go check on sister." Despite having a sufficient number of women around him now, Alex's obsession with sister still had some influence on him.

Alex still had lingering thoughts about sister, especially whenever he recalled their encounter in the bathroom that night. The memories made his blood boil.

The posture.

The skin.

And that lazy charm unique to mature women.

All of it captivated Alex.

After calling Li Wanning to inquire about sister's current situation, Alex leisurely walked out of the city, strolling to the teachers' dormitory.

Cousin sister was currently placed in the best teacher's apartment on the third floor. The third floor was more convenient and safer. Li Wanning had carefully considered these factors when helping them choose.

With his hands behind his back, Alex walked to the door of the teacher's apartment where sister was staying and lightly knocked.

"Who is it?!" Soon, sister Tang Wanshow's crisp and tender voice came from inside.

Alex coughed lightly, speaking earnestly like a leader about to do something mischievous when addressing a female subordinate. "Sister, it's me, Alex."

Hearing that it was Alex, Tang Wanshow hurriedly ran over to open the door. She rubbed her hands on her scarf, blushing nervously as she said, "Alex, I didn't know it was you..."

Seeing Alex peeking inside, sister quickly stepped aside, welcoming him. "Alex, come in! Come in quickly! Sister-in-law just finished cleaning, come in and have a seat. Your cousin found some good tea leaves here yesterday. I'll brew some tea for you..."

Facing her enthusiasm, Alex just smiled faintly and walked into the room.

It was a relatively large teacher's apartment, around 130 square meters. In addition to a living room, bedroom, and bathroom, there was also a kitchen. However, this apartment outside the city lacked running water and electricity.

Fortunately, it was daytime, and with the windows open, the living room was still relatively bright. However, the other rooms appeared much darker and more ambiguous.

"Alex, have a seat! I'll brew some tea for you! We really have to thank you this time for taking care of us like this! If it weren't for you, we would still be living in fear in that shelter. Now, with your care, we can live peacefully here!" Tang Wanshow chattered on, taking out tea leaves and a kettle from the table, preparing to make tea for Alex.

Alex sat down on the spacious sofa, waving his hand. "Tang Wanshow, no need. I don't like tea, and you don't have a water purifier here. It's not easy to get clean water. Keep it for yourself."

Hearing Alex's words, Tang Wanshow felt a bit disappointed. Indeed, what kind of tea hadn't Alex tasted? Everything in the entire Jiangcheng City was his backyard! Whatever kind of life he wanted, he could have. Whatever he wanted to use, he could get. Whatever woman he wanted to enjoy, he could have.

Looking at herself, living in this place without electricity and water, enduring a hard life with her useless husband, she couldn't help but feel low-spirited. Relying on Alex's help, she barely survived.

Tang Wanshow thought to herself, feeling quite down. She carried the tea to Alex, bent down, and handed it to him. "Alex, you're really amazing now, so successful. Even in this post-apocalyptic world, you can still live such a good life... Sister really envies those maids of yours, being able to live such a good life with you..."

As she handed over the tea, Alex suddenly saw a vast expanse of whiteness...
