Late at night, under the chilly moonlight, two figures lurked behind a broken wall.

"boss, they're probably asleep," Augustus whispered while crouching down and keeping an eye on the house where David and the others were staying. Beside him, Eamonn nodded, still scrutinizing the building.

"I say we rush in and catch them off guard! Forget about David; we'll send them to the afterlife!" Augustus couldn't contain himself and wanted to charge in.

If it weren't for David, he would still be enjoying a comfortable sleep in the Kill God Gang's territory. It was because of this guy that he had to come to this desolate and remote place so late. So Augustus couldn't wait to ''take care ''of David and go back to sleep.

"Keep your voice down, don't get noticed," Eamonn warned sternly, despite also wanting to kill David and return home victorious.

However, he knew that even Alexander, who was incredibly powerful, didn't dare to take direct action against David, let alone the two of them. If they confronted David head-on, they probably wouldn't even know how they died. Unlike Augustus, Eamonn could see the bigger picture and didn't act recklessly. He decided to rest for the night and find an opportunity tomorrow.

So the two found a room not far from David and rested there. The next morning, Ember Squad members and Fatso emerged from the house. Despite a night filled with tension, they had restored some of their energy and spirits, and their condition had improved.????????????????????????????????.????????????

Observing the bleak surroundings, still wrapped in an eerie chill, David initially thought about having Charles trace the Phantom Zombie's location. However, he reconsidered, thinking it would be better not to reveal too much about his team members' unique abilities to Fatso before he officially became part of the Ember Squad. So instead, he asked Fatso, "Can you find the Phantom Zombie's location?"

Hearing David's question, Fatso pondered for a moment and shook his head. "I tried last night, but it seems like the Phantom Zombie has set up some kind of domain here, making it impossible to locate him no matter what." Finishing his sentence, Fatso looked up at David, and his eyelids twitched slightly. David raised an eyebrow and nodded.

"I didn't expect this guy to be quite powerful, capable of hiding his position within a domain," Duke commented as he surveyed the surroundings.

"That's why he's called the Phantom Zombie. We're probably going to face a tough opponent today," Arnold chimed in, looking around as well.

"What's the matter, Arnold? Feeling scared?" Duke grinned teasingly.

"Duke, don't be unreasonable. How could I be scared? In every battle, it's always me leading the charge !" Arnold retorted, glaring at Duke.

Duke listened to Arnold's words and nodded. "That's right, you said it!" As he heard the two banter, David glanced at Fatso, then turned to face the Youth Apartment located in the center.

As the sun rose, the smell of blood in the air grew stronger. David decided it was time for a swift and decisive battle. They couldn't afford to waste any more time, as who knew what other troubles might arise. So he led the team towards the Youth Apartment.

"boss, they're on the move!" Augustus kept his eyes on David and informed Eamonn.

Eamonn also spotted the group's movement. He thought for a moment and picked up some dust from the ground, sprinkling it on his hair and clothes. Then he wiped some on his face.

Seeing  Eamonn's actions, Augustus was a bit confused. "boss, what are you doing? Why are you so filthy?" Ignoring Augustus, Eamonn picked up some dust and rubbed it on Augustus's face.I think you should take a look at

"Don't talk. Later, we'll pretend to be survivors and blend in with them, then seize an opportunity to cause them trouble," Eamonn explained his plan. This was the most prudent method he had come up with after contemplating it all night. As long as they could infiltrate without arousing suspicion, they would have a chance. They might even have the opportunity to kill David.

Augustus shook off the dust on his body with disdain and reluctantly followed Eamonn's arrangement. "Remember, act a bit more convincingly and follow my lead," Eamonn instructed him, then scanned the surroundings before rising and leaving the ruins. Augustus quickly followed.

Meanwhile, David was crossing a collapsed street, getting closer to the Youth Apartment. Just then, a voice caught his attention.

"Help us! Kind people, please save us! We've been trapped here for three days, begging you to take us out," the voice pleaded.

David's brow furrowed instantly as he quickly followed the sound.

Fatso glanced at the approaching duo and tapped lightly on his left hand with his right finger.

"They are survivors!" Arnold observed as Eamonn and Augustus, disheveled and covered in dust, neared David.

Duke looked up briefly at the two of them before returning his attention to Cola not far away, and Little Black remained by his feet, wagging its tail.

Eamonn and Augustus soon arrived in front of David. They gasped for breath and wiped the sweat off their foreheads, wearing expressions of relief.

"We finally see someone! These past few days, my brother and I nearly died in this godforsaken place," Eamonn spoke. He didn't recognize David, but by observing their auras, he quickly deduced that the young man before him was likely David. Seeing how young David was, Eamonn's heart couldn't help but tremble, but he didn't show any signs of surprise on his face.

"That's right, that's right. We came out to find some food, but unexpectedly, we couldn't find our way out of here. We nearly starved to death!" Augustus chimed in, echoing Eamonn.

Listening to their story, David asked, "When did you both arrive here?"

"Three days ago! We came to this godforsaken place three days ago," Augustus quickly replied.

David glanced at Augustus while sensing their auras. He found that they didn't possess any awakened abilities; they seemed no different from ordinary people. He also looked at Fatso and nodded, saying, "Follow us, and we'll take you both out later."

Hearing this, Eamonn and Augustus became excited and thanked David for saving them from their predicament.

David smiled faintly and said to Fatso, "Take care of them and make sure they don't get hurt later."

Fatso grinned, putting his arms around Eamonn and Augustus, and said, "It might be dangerous later, so you two better not run around. Otherwise, if you break an arm or leg, we won't be responsible."
