Apocalypse: Infinite Supplies System - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Could it be that Emma has some sort of antivirus serum in her body?
Seeing Alex suddenly appear, a flash of shock passed through Emma’s eyes.

Then, she didn’t move randomly, nor did she pay attention to the rope tied around her, calmly saying, “10086, it’s useless for you to capture me.”

“Although the blueprints are on me, if you kill me, you can open my backpack. But let me tell you, I have a backup of the video with my dad. If I die, he will definitely release the video.”

“It’s best for you to let me go now. Let’s sit down and talk things out amicably.”

Upon hearing this, Alex laughed, revealing his white, neat teeth.

He lifted Emma’s chin with his hand, indifferently saying, “What if I don’t want to let you go?”

“I don’t believe you have any bargaining chips to negotiate with me.”

“If you think my identity being exposed would greatly affect me, then let me tell you, you’re wrong.”

“The residential area where I live, many people know what I look like. This video is of little consequence to me.”

Emma, with her chin lifted by Alex, heard his words but smiled cunningly, revealing her cute little tiger teeth.

“You’re lying!”

Alex, caught off guard, was surprised, but he remained composed, saying, “Oh, how so?”

Emma’s smile grew stronger as she slowly said, “How could a set of katana blueprints make you relentlessly pursue my location and yet not immediately kill me?”

“Presumably, it’s for the video. But you’re also worried about the risk of backups being leaked, so you want to interrogate me, right?”

“I wasn’t sure just now, but seeing your reaction and expression, it’s quite obvious now.”

Alex was speechless.

He didn’t expect Emma to see through his thoughts.

Gently pinching Emma’s cheek, Alex narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of killing intent appearing.

This woman was very dangerous!

“In that case, there’s no other choice. I’ll just have to kill you. After killing you, I’ll go take a bath and wash away this bad luck!”

“Hehe, to kill or to butcher, it’s all up to you!”

Emma was very dismissive of Alex’s threat.

Then, she reacted, her face full of shock, incredulously saying, “Wait, what did you say? You can actually take a bath? How is that possible, it’s so luxurious!”

Emma couldn’t believe it, and didn’t want to believe it.

You see, after coming to this post-apocalyptic world, she hadn’t been able to take a bath.

The most luxurious behavior is to use water to wash one’s face every few days.

Alex can actually take a bath?! Unbelievable!

But upon closer inspection of Alex, there still lingers the scent of shampoo and shower gel on him, seemingly confirming the fact.

Alex shrugged with a smile.

“It’s not impossible. Are there still people who can’t bathe for over ten days in this post-apocalyptic world? That can’t be true, surely no one would neglect hygiene to that extent?”

Hearing this, Emma gritted her teeth in frustration.

Isn’t he talking about her?! Just as Emma was about to speak up, Alex suddenly changed his expression and leaned in closer.

The distance between them was only a few centimeters, and Emma could clearly feel Alex’s breath on her face.

Emma leaned against a tree behind her, with nowhere to escape.

Her heart rate quickened.

She had never been in such close contact with a boy before, and she felt a bit nervous all of a sudden.

“What, what are you doing?”

But Alex was staring at the strange bite mark on Emma’s neck.

Upon hearing her question, he then backed away.

“You said it yourself, I’m a big guy. When I see a beauty, of course I’m going to make a move.”

Emma felt a bit annoyed.

But at that moment, Alex grabbed Emma’s face, preventing her from speaking properly, leaving her only able to mumble.

“Let me ask you something. The bite mark on your neck, it’s from a zombie, right? But how come you haven’t been infected?”

The bite mark on Emma’s neck was indeed the trace of a zombie.

Under normal circumstances, being bitten by a zombie would certainly lead to infection.

But Emma didn’t die.

In fact, she seemed completely unaffected.

Could it be that Emma has some sort of antivirus serum in her body? Or perhaps she took some kind of potion? Alex was curious to find out.

After hearing Alex’s words, Emma instinctively shrunk her neck.

Then, she stubbornly argued, “H-how could it be a zombie? This is a hickey from my ex-boyfriend.”

Upon hearing this, Alex first froze, then burst into laughter.

He exposed the genuine hickey from Mia, which he got last night, under his neck, mocking, “Ex-boyfriend? Hickey? Are you telling me you haven’t even seen a movie? Can bite marks and hickeys be the same? This is a hickey!”

Emma looked at the hickey under Alex’s neck, speechless.

She didn’t expect that the so-called hickey was actually created by sucking out one bruise after another with the mouth.

She had always innocently thought they were bite marks.

After all, she hadn’t tried it herself…

Alex pulled up the collar of his shirt and said seriously, “Come clean. What’s the real reason you’re not afraid of zombie infection?”

However, Emma still refused to speak up.

Just then, footage from the drone overhead showed a group of people heading their way.

Alex frowned, “The people you called?”

Emma suddenly gained confidence and replied naturally, “Who else?”

At some point, Emma had quietly spread the message through her own means.

Now, her teammates had arrived.

Alex sighed, silently put on a mask and a baseball cap, and patiently waited.

Soon, the group approached.

At the forefront was a middle-aged man, elegant and naturally exuding an air of literacy.

Upon closer inspection, he bore a striking resemblance to Emma.

As expected, when the leading middle-aged man saw Emma, he immediately shouted excitedly.

“Emma, are you alright? Not hurt, are you?!”

“Dad, I’m fine!”

With her hands and feet bound by Alex, Emma could only speak loudly to reassure the other party.

The middle-aged man looked at Alex with a cold expression.

“Everyone, attack together and rescue Emma!”
