End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 372

Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Bonnie in Danger
Jeremy had no clear understanding of the internal situation at the military headquarters, so he was completely unaware that the Endless Abyss Instance was of paramount importance to the military headquarters.

At that moment, Jeremy was simply resting in his own room.

After sleeping for an entire day, Jeremy was once again woken up by the sound of a phone ringing.

This time, the caller was none other than Bonnie.

Bonnie had decided to invite Jeremy to her place.

“The last time we went out, I didn’t get a chance to show you my place. This time, I’ve decided to invite you over. The area where I live is one of the high-class residential zones of the capital. You could even call it the ‘noble district,'” Bonnie said.

Her voice was still as pleasant as ever.

However, upon hearing her words, Jeremy’s mood became slightly sour.

Jeremy wasn’t someone from an elite background.

Because of this, he harbored a natural sense of wariness toward the upper echelons of the Federation.

Still, since the invitation came from Bonnie, Jeremy found it hard to turn her down so easily.

Besides, he did have time to spare.

“All right, you can come pick me up. It’s pretty inconvenient for me to head to the city center on my own.”

“Got it! I’ll be at your place shortly!” Bonnie replied cheerfully.

After hanging up the phone, Jeremy took a moment to compose himself.

He wasn’t lying; it really was a hassle for him to get to the capital’s city center.

He currently didn’t have any means of transportation.

The only way for him to reach the city center was by public transport, and that would take an unreasonable amount of time.

Half an hour later, Bonnie arrived downstairs at Jeremy’s apartment.

This time, Bonnie had come in a luxury car.

Such cars were already prohibitively expensive before the Apocalypse Game descended. After the game began, they had become a rarity, virtually impossible to purchase regardless of one’s wealth.

“So, what do you think? Isn’t this car gorgeous?” Bonnie asked with a bright smile.

Jeremy nodded. “It’s stunning, no doubt about it. From what I know, though, this car is incredibly pricey. Are these still being manufactured after the Apocalypse Game started?”

“Of course! Even though this brand isn’t particularly practical, it’s still a favorite among many of the Federation’s high-ranking officials,” Bonnie explained.

Bonnie didn’t notice the change in Jeremy’s mood.

She simply shared all the information she knew.

Jeremy nodded. “Indeed, even after the Apocalypse Game began, the Federation’s elites seem unwilling to give up their refined lifestyles.”

Bonnie finally caught the hint of sarcasm in Jeremy’s words.

Her expression turned slightly colder.

However, she quickly composed herself.

“Let’s not dwell on that! Just get in the car already! I’ll take you to my place right away!”

Bonnie climbed back into the car as soon as she finished speaking.

Although Jeremy’s mood remained somewhat sour, he decided not to waste any more time.

The two of them started driving toward the capital’s city center.

On the way, Bonnie talked extensively about everything that had happened to her over the past couple of days.

Most of it revolved around attending various high-society balls.

As a member of the White Family, Bonnie was expected to participate in such gatherings.

Jeremy, however, had no interest in these events. He responded with only the occasional word, letting most of her chatter drift past him.

Halfway through the journey, Jeremy suddenly felt a sense of danger.

It was as if he had sensed the presence of some incredibly powerful monsters nearby.

“Step on it! We need to get through this area as quickly as possible!”

Jeremy lowered his voice as he spoke to Bonnie.

Although she was confused, Bonnie decided to follow his instructions.

She quickly pressed down on the accelerator.

The car’s speed shot up to an astonishing level.

But to Jeremy, it still felt far too slow.

He could feel the spatial distortions around them growing more intense.

“We might end up trapped in a special dimension! Be ready for a fight!” Jeremy said urgently.

Without waiting for a response, he pulled out Mortal Combat.

Jeremy climbed onto the roof of the car without hesitation.

The moment he reached the top, he saw the monsters surrounding the vehicle.

The creatures were entirely transparent, and their movements were alarmingly fast.

Even though Bonnie had already pushed the car to its maximum speed, the monsters were still able to keep up.

“I can’t believe there are monsters in the middle of the capital’s city center! But no matter—I’ll take care of all of you!” Jeremy declared.

With that, Jeremy gripped Mortal Combat tightly and launched an attack on the surrounding monsters.

Although his attacks quickly started yielding results, the vehicle itself began to suffer from the collateral effects of the battle.

Bonnie found it increasingly difficult to maintain control over the car’s direction.

Noticing the car’s violent swaying, Jeremy shouted down to Bonnie, “Hold steady! I’ll have all these monsters wiped out in no time!”

Hearing Jeremy’s words, Bonnie clenched her teeth, determined not to become a liability at such a critical moment.

Jeremy, however, knew Bonnie couldn’t hold out for much longer. He intensified his attacks, quickening his pace.

Before long, Jeremy had successfully eliminated all the monsters surrounding the vehicle.

“It seems whoever planned this ambush wasn’t very smart. Sending just these monsters? If it were me, I’d have deployed a lot more,” Jeremy muttered as he caught his breath.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a familiar figure appeared just ahead.

It was Kean.

Kean stood with a sword in hand, its golden glow radiating an intimidating brilliance.

He gazed at Jeremy with a smirk that was both mocking and calculating.

The moment Jeremy spotted Kean, he realized the situation was far more complicated than he had initially thought.

“Kean’s right ahead! You need to stay safe, no matter what!” Jeremy quickly warned Bonnie.

But Bonnie didn’t respond.

That was when Jeremy realized something might already have happened to her.

At that very moment, the car suddenly spun completely out of control.

Before Jeremy could re-enter the vehicle, it careened straight into an abandoned building, dragging him along with it.

A deafening explosion followed, reducing the luxurious car to a heap of scattered parts.

Though Jeremy emerged unscathed from the blast, his heart sank with worry.

He was deeply concerned about whether Bonnie had survived the crash.

After carefully searching the area, Jeremy found no trace of Bonnie.

This could only mean one thing: Bonnie had been captured by someone.

“It has to be Kean! He’s the only one capable of setting up so many monsters in the capital. And he’s the only one who holds such a grudge against me!” Jeremy exclaimed, his voice filled with fury.

At that moment, Jeremy was seething with anger.

His hatred for Kean had reached an entirely new level.

But Jeremy knew that anger alone wouldn’t help him.

What he needed to do now was to rescue Bonnie as quickly as possible.

Although it wasn’t certain that Kean would harm Bonnie, her disappearance was a dire situation.

If Jeremy didn’t act fast, Bonnie could end up in irreversible danger.

“What should I do now? Without Bonnie’s help, I can’t even move freely in the capital!”

Jeremy was consumed with anxiety, his mind racing but unable to come up with a solid plan.

While he was lost in thought, more and more people began to gather around the scene.

Among the crowd of onlookers, some soldiers appeared.

The soldiers, spotting Jeremy, wasted no time in surrounding him.

“What’s going on here? Why were you driving so recklessly in the middle of the capital? Come with us immediately for questioning!” one of the soldiers demanded, his tone sharp and accusatory.

The soldiers were highly suspicious of Jeremy.

They seemed intent on taking him into custody, but Jeremy wasn’t about to go along quietly.

With a cold and resolute tone, Jeremy replied.

“This has nothing to do with you! Don’t get in my way! I have far more important things to deal with!”

As soon as Jeremy finished speaking, he activated his innate ability, The King of Time and Space.

A Portal materialized before him, leading directly to the location where he had last seen Kean.

Without hesitation, Jeremy stepped through and disappeared into thin air.

His sudden vanishing act left the soldiers and the surrounding onlookers in utter shock.

When Jeremy arrived at the spot where he had last seen Kean, he noticed a piece of paper lying on the ground.

It read:

“If you want to ensure Bonnie’s safety, come to the abandoned cathedral in the western district of the capital tonight at midnight. Both she and I will be waiting for you there.”

“The abandoned cathedral in the capital’s western district? Is Kean planning to ambush me there?” Jeremy muttered, a hint of concern creeping into his voice.

Despite his apprehension, Jeremy knew he had no choice but to go to the abandoned cathedral.

Rescuing Bonnie was his top priority.

Jeremy checked the time—it was still ten hours until midnight.

He decided he needed to head to the western district’s abandoned cathedral in advance.

Perhaps he could uncover some additional clues, or maybe he could dismantle whatever traps Kean had prepared before they could be sprung.
