At this moment, on the third floor of the youth apartment, the members of the Ember Squad were anxiously pacing in place. It had been more than ten minutes since they came down from the fourth floor, during which they heard constant sounds of fighting from above, but there was still no sign of David. This made each of them restless. If something really happened to David, it would be catastrophic for their squad.
Sally's face was especially filled with worry. She had thought about rushing up to help David, but considering his words, she halted her steps. She knew that the monsters on the fourth floor were far stronger than her. If she went up, not only could she not be of any help, but she might also hinder David.
However, waiting here indefinitely wasn't a solution either. Just as Sally was pacing back and forth with impatience, Duke, who had been leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her. A faint smile crept up on the corners of his mouth. He then said to Sally, "Don't worry, this battle will be over soon."After speaking, Duke's face showed a profound smile.
"I hope so too. This feeling is too torturous! If anything goes wrong with David, what should we do with our squad in the future?"
As Arnold glanced at Duke after hearing his words, Duke immediately concealed the expression on his face. Arnold was too anxious at the moment to notice Duke's strangeness. Now that David was on the fourth floor, and they didn't know the situation, if it weren't for David's instructions, Arnold would have rushed up already. Even if he got injured, he wanted to stand together with his captain. Not only Arnold, but Sophie and Charles also felt the same way.
David had sacrificed too much for their Ember Squad. If they kept waiting like this, what would be their purpose of existence?
After a pause, Charles spoke up, "The biggest trouble now is the Ghost Zombie's domain. As long as the domain exists, none of us can release our abilities. Only by breaking the Ghost Zombie's domain, not only can our captain fight freely, but we can also rush up to help him." After hearing Charles' words, the others pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Charles was right. As long as the domain existed, their combat capabilities were basically reduced to zero. Staying here helplessly was their only option. If they could break the Ghost Zombie's domain, it might provide them with an opportunity to turn the tide of the battle.
"Charles, do you have any ideas?" Sally anxiously asked Charles. Among the squad, only Charles could deduce and trace the situation. If he could find a way to break the Ghost Zombie's domain, it would be the best outcome. The rest of the team also looked at Charles with expectation.
Charles sighed helplessly. His Star Tracing ability was his own power, so naturally, he had no way to deal with the domain. But suddenly, he thought that the Ghost Zombie had only set up the domain inside the youth apartment, and the area outside the apartment was still free. If he returned outside, could he trace a way to break the domain?
As soon as this thought emerged, Charles became spirited. Without explaining to others, he hurriedly ran towards the outside of the apartment. Although the others were full of doubt when they saw Charles leaving, they assumed he went to search for a breakthrough somewhere else in the apartment.
Duke, on the other hand, nonchalantly looked towards the direction of the stairs leading to the fourth floor. While no one was paying attention, he drew a strange symbol on the wall with his fingers. Then, he looked up at the ceiling, and another eerie smile appeared on his face.
Charles didn't stop for a moment and quickly arrived outside the apartment. Standing on the street, he tried to use his ability. Soon, ethereal stars appeared around his body.
"Success! Indeed, the Ghost Zombie's domain is only present inside the apartment!" Charles was filled with excitement. This meant that if he continued his Star Tracing, he might find a way to break the domain. So, he quickly prepared to use his ability again.I think you should take a look at
Just at this moment, a voice suddenly came from not far away, calling out, "Charles!" Charles immediately stopped using his ability and turned his head in confusion to see Duke walking towards him.
"Duke? How did you come out?" Charles asked with a puzzled expression.
"What do you mean, how did I come out? I just went to the bathroom. Where did all of you go? It took me the whole day to find you guys. Where are David and the others? How come only you are here?" Duke approached Charles, showing a relaxed expression, and then looked around the empty surroundings, asking.
"Are you in a hurry or something, Duke?" Charles smiled at the odd Duke.
"Third floor, fourth floor? Charles, what are you talking about? I've been looking for you guys since last night!" Duke scratched his head, looking completely bewildered by Charles' words.
"Duke, now is not the time for jokes. Hurry back and stay safe. I need to find a way to trace and break the Ghost Zombie's domain. If anything happens to David, you might still be able to help." Charles was in a hurry to use his ability and casually told Duke.
"Third floor, fourth floor? Charles, what are you talking about? I just went to the bathroom!" Duke scratched his head, looking completely bewildered by Charles' words. He had gone to the bathroom last night, and when he came back, there was suddenly a thick fog in the distance, making it impossible for him to find the way back. So, he had to search one place after another until now.
"Who are you?" Charles' tone suddenly turned cold, and he took a step back, maintaining a safe distance from Duke. At the same time, he clenched his right hand into a fist, and a string of stars wrapped around his fist.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm "Who am I? I'm Duke! Who else could I be? Why are you acting so strange today?" Duke was now completely lost and had no idea what was going on.
Charles acted this way because he suddenly remembered what Fatso had said before. Ghost Zombies could transform into the appearance of others and even hide their aura, emanating the aura of the person they transformed into.
Duke's actions and words just now made Charles suddenly realize this. When they came down from the youth apartment, Charles remembered Duke was still leaning against the wall. How could he suddenly come down without any reason? He didn't even know what had happened inside the apartment at this moment.
A terrifying thought arose in Charles' mind. Which Duke was the real one?
