Supreme Master In The Apocalypse-Chapter 113 Zombie-Like Creatures
Hugo suddenly felt uncomfortable. He tried to look around to see if there was someone watching them.
"I think we should go back now," Hugo uttered as he took a step backward. He was wary of his surroundings. He could feel it. There was something wrong in this place.
Abigail, who was busy feeding the fish, was startled at Hugo's sudden words. But even if she was confused, she still stood up and walk towards the side.
"Are you suddenly busy? If you are, then let's go already." She smiled. "Let me wash my hands first, though. I can still smell the fish's food from it."
"Sure," Hugo scratched the back of his head. He let go of Abigail's hands and watched her as she went towards the public comfort room on the side.
Hugo's eyes widened as he saw shadows of people surrounding the place. They were hidden behind the trees and the only reason that he saw them was because of a bright light that flashed for a few seconds.
He tilted his head to the side and took a step back. "Abigail, are you done already?" He asked loudly. He was already readying himself to teleport with Abigail if it was necessary.
However, he hasn't gotten any response from Abigail. His heart had grown worried. "Abigail?" He asked one more time, hoping that this time, there will finally be a reply.
"I will enter now," He announced when there was still no response.
Hugo boldly went closer to the door. He didn't care if there were shadows of people hiding on the sides or if the place has gotten dark because there was no sun in the sky already.
When he looked at the sky, thick clouds were up. The sky became dark, as if it was preparing for something to happen.
And just by the look of it, Hugo was sure that whatever may happen wouldn't be good.
Hugo kicked the door multiple times until it broke and crash onto the floor. His eyes widened when he saw that Abigail wasn't alone inside.
Abigail was tightly tied on the side. Her mouth has this black tape, making her unable to speak nor create just a little sound. A man was on her back. His head was covered with a black mask, and the only thing Hugo could see was his eyes.
"W-What are you?" His forehead formed a straight line.
The man's eyes were darkish. It wasn't the normal eyes where the sides were white, rather the sides of her eyes were reddish and you can see that the veins of it were popping out.
The man didn't answer Hugo's question. He just stared at him as he took a step back away from Abigail's body. And in front of them, he took a knife from his pocket.
Hugo was all ready to protect Abigail from the man. He was about to run towards them when he didn't expect what will happen next.
Blood flew everywhere.
Hugo's mouth fell wide open. The man just killed himself by cutting down the side of his throat. Spots of blood went to Hugo's body, the same as Abigail, whose feet could now touch the blood spilling on the ground.
The lifeless body of the man fell to the floor, creating a loud sound.
It was a traumatizing sight for them, but before other things could happen, he straight went ahead to Abigail, taking off the tape on her mouth.
"What happened?" He hurriedly asked as he tried to unknot the ropes that was binding her body to the chair. He took a deep sigh. Using his strength, he pulled them all slowly until they became loose, just enough so Abigail could leave.
"Hugo…" Abigail looked at her with fear written in her eyes. Her body felt so weak as she reached for his hands.
"Let's go now," Hugo announced. He looked at Abigail's state and he knew for sure that he can't just teleport since she looked very weak.
'Fuck,' Hugo cursed in his mind. They were about to leave the comfort room when he heard multiple weird sounds from outside.
'Are they here already?' his heart stammered in anxiousness. He went back and looked at Abigail. He could see that there was blood on her shirt.
He looked her, straight in the eyes. He took off his shirt, which was left clean. "I want you to go to the back door and run. Do you understand?"
Abigail looked hesitant. "I can't just leave you alone!" she fought back, trying to give Hugo his shirt back.
"No. There's no time already." He shook his head. After I go out, change your clothes into mine and run fast. Alright?" He smiled, assuring Abigail that everything will just be fine.𝘧𝗿ee𝚠𝙚𝙗𝑛o𝚟𝐞l.𝐜૦𝗺
Abigail slowly nodded, even if her heart wanted to stay and help Hugo. However, he knew that, that would be impossible. She smiled as she accepted Hugo's shirt. "I will call for help. Just try to survive in a few minutes." She uttered.
"I will." Hugo chuckled.
"Now go."
Abigail let go of Hugo's hands. He took her shirt off and replaced it with Hugo's shirt. Now, her clothes were clean as if they were new. She quickly went to the sink and clean her arms and legs off. She wiped the blood off her body before opening the back door.
She didn't look back, following Hugo's words. She closed her eyes and ran as far as she can, refusing to see who were those people and what were they.
She was too scared to know the truth. The only thing in her mind now was to search for someone that could help Hugo who was left alone.
When Hugo saw that Abigail had already ran away, he glanced over at the ground to look for something that could help him. When he saw the pieces of wood from the door that he broke earlier, he picked it up.
"This will do." He tilted his head to the side. He closed his eyes before taking a deep breath. And when he opened them, he was already determined enough that he will be able to defeat all of them.
When Hugo step out of the bathroom, he already knew what triggered them to get here. It was the smell of blood from the man who killed himself earlier.
Hugo was flustered when he saw the faces of the people who were outside. They were showing the same expression as the girl whom he saw in the hospital.
"Did this come from Julius?" He swallowed dryly.
However, aside from the signs that he saw from the woman in that hospital, the people in his front looked more dangerous. It was as if they weren't thinking, or they do not have the ability to think at all.
'I should have wiped the blood out of my body too.'
Hugo stood firmly as he fixed the way he was holding the piece of wood on his hand. Just like zombies that he watched on tv, the people in his front attacked him together.
Based on his counting, there were at least 10 of them. If they were normal people, then he could surely wipe them off in less than 10 minutes, however, they were different.
Their speed was faster, and their moves became unpredictable. It was as if they were being controlled by someone. As if they were robots built to kill people, their own kind.
Hugo swayed the wooden stick on the side. It hit someone which caused the man to fall to the ground. But just like what he expected, it wouldn't be easy.
The man who fell to the ground was able to stand up after just a few seconds, even though it created a deep mark on his body.
'I just need to survive until Abigail comes back.' He reminded himself. With that, he gathered all his courage and fought them one by one.
Hugo jumped forward, striking at one of the man's heads, he continued to sway the piece of wood in his hand.
"Archhkkkkk…"
Hugo's eyes widened when he heard a sound in his back. He immediately ducked down. He quickly turned his body back, kicking the person by his stomach, making him fly and drop far away.
"They're not getting slower!"
He continued to fight them by himself. Hugo took a stone on the ground as he ran to one side. He threw them at the people who were chasing him. When he met another zombie-like man, he aimed for the middle of its head and its legs.
The sides of his lips rose up. "I just need to hit them on their legs!" He exclaimed when he noticed that the person became unstable now that one of his legs became fractured. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om
Hugo tried it on another person who came running into him. He was able to hit the man's legs with full force and it became broken. The man fell to the ground, although his arms were still moving as if it was still reaching for Hugo's body.
When Hugo saw it, he grinned.
"Now, I finally found your weakness."
