The End Of Life - Chapter 175

“Now with this in mind, I need both of you to write that monster Kane’s abilities in a detailed format so we know what we are working on.” he took out a white paper from the drawer and slid it across the desk. Mark took a pen from the cup holder before he wrote down Kane’s strong points and only weak points in detail. Kane was almost bulletproof as bullets made almost no damage and the only weak point he found were his eyes.

After writing about Kane’s abilities, he slid the paper right back at the old man. Donald took a look at it and raised an eyebrow. He looked at Mark and said, “Looks like you are tougher than I imagined to fight a monster like this.”

Mark shrugged and replied, “I was just lucky or else we both would have been dead by now.” and that was true, it was only luck and he hoped he wouldn’t need to fight another mutant like that for a while.

Donald knew Mark was very secretive and so he simply placed the paper back into the drawer and stood up. He walked towards the shelves to the side and said, “Well, now that all the important stuff is over, I have a small gift for you guys.” and took out a small briefcase.

He put the briefcase in front of them and sat back in his seat. He waved his hands, asking them to open it. Mark opened the suitcase and saw a miniature version of the radio system they brought from Evergreen city a few weeks back.

Kevin noticed it and said, “Wow, you guys made a miniature version of the ones we transported. Are you guys giving it to us?” he turned towards Donald and asked. He was surprised. This was now the only form of communication they could use, it also helps them to use handheld radio devices if connected. It could make their missions easier.

Donald nodded and replied, “Yes, I know you guys would probably move out of the city once again, and if I need to stay connected with your people for any help, then this is needed. You guys would probably set up your own base somewhere and so you can just use it to communicate with us too.”

Kevin nodded, as he knew how he could set it up properly. He was a geek when it came to machines and learned all odd stuff. This was one of them. Mark closed the box and thanked the old man. This could be very helpful for them.

“It’s alright. Anyway, where are you guys going to keep going from here on out?”

“We will continue to stay in the city for the rest of the week. Our next destination is Tambo Hills.”

Donald nodded hearing their next destination and said, “That is a nice place to go but it might also be dangerous. There are a lot of animals in Tambo hills but the plus side should be the windmills and lake over there.” Mark nodded, hearing him.

“Yes, it’s also not that far from this city. So it should be easier for us to get there.”

They continued to talk for a while and split up. Donald still had work to do, and both of them wanted to rest a little. As both of them exited the room, Donald looked at his map on the board and noticed a circle near Tambo hills.

“He must have seen it the last time they came here. Well, let’s hope they can take over it, cause it would be a huge help even for us if they do.” Realizing why Mark chose Tambo hills as his next direction and he wasn’t completely wrong.

Mark and Kevin already made their way to their Jeep, and Kevin went behind the wheel. Mark placed the suitcase in the seat behind and got in. As they drove through the city, Kevin asked, “Tambo Hills, ha?”

Mark nodded and said, “Yeah, Tambo Hills. Isn’t your old man there right now? It’s better if we set up our base near the old man. I told you earlier that we will get a chance to meet him and it looks like all stars aligned to make it happen.”

It really was a complete coincidence that came together perfectly. The windmills and the dam on the lake were the primary sources of electricity to the whole mountain, but also the surrounding factories. One such factory was the government-owned weapons factory. He hoped no one stumbled upon that factory till now.

“The Old man should be bossing around the whole village now.” Kevin laughed, thinking about how demanding his grandfather was. His grandfather participated in war during his youth and was very tough. He couldn’t live in cities due to post-war mental health issues and had to live in the mountains near Stargaze city. Where he had his own house in the village and was living a peaceful life.

With the zombie apocalypse striking the whole world, he should in his own comfortable niche. So both of them were confident in his skills with the sword and survivability.

“Yes, he must be. So building our base there is better even with the wildlife around there.” making Kevin nod.

“Do you think David and Suzie would follow us there?” Kevin turned his and asked.

Mark shrugged and replied, “Weren’t you the one who told them the camp was better for them when I asked them to make a choice, and honestly it is. It doesn’t make much of a difference for us. Our firepower might decrease significantly, but I don’t see how it will affect our journey to the mountains too much.”

Kevin nodded. It was their choice. Both of them were close friends, especially Suzie they knew for quite some time, but this wasn’t that new. It was always only two of them and wasn’t like they won’t meet them once again. Every person has to do what they got to do for their family’s survival.
