Stronghold In The Apocalypse

Chapter 211: Return

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Good! You did good!" Leo praised, as he didn't that this guy would actually managed to increase his accuracy from zero to sixty percent in over just four days.

After all, Dan could now shoot six out of ten bullets within a fifteen to twenty meter distance.

It was already the morning of the fifth day of the agreed time, and through checking on his [Map]. Leo already saw that a large group of people are heading towards his direction.

Leo and the others could then hear the rumbling sound of a helicopter, they then saw five Chinook helicopters heading towards them.

It was something Leo had bought before leaving the Sanchez Mira base, and the only people who know about them are the members of the Alpha Team, most of them know that their leader has some unusual ability that really defies one's common sense.

So they are already used to seeing things appearing out of nowhere, it's even one of their major discussions every time they have a break, as they would guess what kind of ability does their leader have that brand new looking weapons would just suddenly appear from out of nowhere, like Leo had just robbed some kind of top secret military base to always bring out unexpected weapons of war.

Leo knows about his men being curious and even talking about it, this is the reason why he would always go out of the base that lasts for quite a long while, so that he would have reason to tell, especially his parents at where the weapons are coming from.

After all, if Leo just stays in the base all the time like a NEET, then they would truly become more suspicious about his ability.

After all, where the heck would someone who only stays indoors all the time and get those kinds of weapons without going out and travelling outside the chaotic lands?

Tutututu~!

The five helicopters slowly landed on the large open space in front of them, as a few soldiers walked out from them, and immediately ran towards Leo.

""Sir!!"

Three of them are from the Alpha Team, and the rest were the new recruits from Sanchez Mira Outpost.

There is actually eight soldiers from Alpha who came with them but the other five as in charge of flying the helicopters so they didn't disembark as they would immediately leave after getting the survivors here.

And not even a minute later, Kurt and Martha and the survivors who have been living under them came in droves.

"Wow! T-those are military grade helicopters!" Kurt blurted out the moment he got off his vehicle as he gazed at the five parked helicopters in disbelief, and there are also others who had the same reactions as him, but there are also others who are not even a bit interested about it like Martha.

After all, isn't the most important thing right now been solved? They finally have something that could them at the other side of the broken bridge, where they could finally start a new chapter in their lives.

The soldiers started helping them board the aircraft, as they would even help those who are carrying heavy things, especially those elderly who have a hard time moving on their own, as those in Alpha's would carry them instead.

"But you're really an amazing guy, aren't you?" Martha winked at Leo as she passed by him.

Two of Alpha's who saw the scene looked at each other then just smiled, as they knew trouble would happen if this woman happens to be one of the lucky people to migrate to those bases in UK.

After all, there's no shortage of beautiful women back at the headquarters, and even then, those women don't even dare to flirt towards Leo openly.

A couple of minutes had already passed by Leo is still standing there all alone, staring at a certain direction.

"I see" Leo just smiled and headed towards the nearest helicopter and boarded it.

Tutututu~!

The rotors of the helicopters slowly spun around, causing dust to billow around them.

The helicopters slowly flew one by one towards the air, carrying its nervous and excited passengers all of them are filled with expectation at the unknown place they are heading to.

*****

There are currently three people standing on top of three story house, as their gaze followed the disappearing silhouette of the five helicopters.

"Are we really not going with them?" Lhea asked as she turned towards John.

"I'm really confused though, there's no future for us staying in this place, but you kept insisting that we should" Lesley also asked him.

"You guys already know the reason why" John just smiled at both of them.

John came with this decision two days ago, it was because he realized that he actually didn't want to become someone else's subordinate, as he wanted to be the one to dictate what he wanted to do and lead his own people, showing just how the same Leo and him are.

But what he didn't know is that this selfish decision he made today would cost him...a lot.

A few days later.

Ten soldiers from the Alpha Team and twenty civilians boarded the Pelican along with their pilots, the civilians started curiously looking around when they arrived inside as they wanted to see how this ship looks inside.

Especially the kids who were with them like Ada and Jason, as their heads are furiously looking around like little critters as the soldiers helped them on their seats.

With them are all of the current nine mutants of the outpost including Kurt and Martha.

Leo wanted to bring all the mutants with him at UK as he needed a lot of individuals like them, as the United Kingdom is far more dangerous than the Philippines, with their zombies and mutated monsters more numerous and dangerous than the latter.

But he left the remaining members of Alpha to manage the military outpost here until a new group is assigned to replace them.

Buzzing~!

The Pelican buzzed as it slowly took off from the ground, as the civilians that were left behind looked on with envious expressions on their faces.

"I'll leave this place for you for the time being" Leo said as he turned towards Captain Richards while patting his shoulders, Leo is really happy as he got another one hundred thousand in defender coins for completing a mission issued by the [System].

"Please leave it to me sir! I just hope my replacement would get here faster" Captain Richards hit his right chest and said with a laugh.

"No worries, you're replacement would probably arrive in two weeks, a month tops" Leo said as he chuckled, then he took out a small bottle from his pocket and handed it over to him.

"Use it well" Leo said smiling.

"Thank you sir" Captain Richards gratefully said, as he carefully received the [Intermediate Recovery Potion] and carefully put it inside his chest pocket.

"I'll leave this place to you"

"Yes sir!" Captain Richards saluted, along with his remaining men.

Leo then turned around and leapt over the wall and headed towards the direction where the [Winter] is lying around.

Leo immediately headed inside and sat in the pilot seat, and said with a serious voice, "Gideon, Set course back to the Stronghold!"

[Yes commande!]

[Destination Confirmed!]

[Setting course to Stronghold!]

Buzz~!

The [Winter] slowly took off and suddenly sped away towards the distant horizon.
