Vampire God in the Apocalypse

Chapter 31: 31. Problem

Colonel Chapman was in his living room, with his chin on both of his hands which were locked. He had a worried expression on his face as the entire camp heard that laid roar coming from the forest.

The door opened and he looked up to see Dexter and Leo with tired expressions. Leo sat on the chair and Dexter walked to a corner where he saw bottles of water and he took two for himself and Leo.

After giving Leo the water he slumped on the chair before drinking the entire bottle to cool down before he delivers the news.

Chapman was just looking at them with anticipation, deeply wishing that the news would not be too bad.

Seeing how stressed the two men in front of him were, he was anxious and he already began to sweat.

As Dexter and Leo were calming down about the situation, the door suddenly opened and Rina, Zain, and Beatrice entered into the room.

They first spotted Leo who had an uneasy expression and Dexter who had his eyes closed.

"Is it that bad?" Chapman said and the two guys in front of him sat up.

They noticed the others who stood around the chair and Leo sighed.

"That sound before. Was it a titan?" Chapman asked and Dexter nodded.

"We should try to go around the forest. I don't recommend going through it." Leo said and Chap man furrowed his brows.

"W–what did you guys see?" Rina asked nervously.

"A titan. It was a huge gorilla. It was very strong and the animals it fought were no match for it. Only the leader of a mutated wolf pack could injure it." Leo explained.

"It's almost twenty metres tall. Plus, it didn't show any special abilities when fighting smaller creatures." Dexter continued.

After telling Chapman and the others all about the ape, they were all terrified.

A creature that was even taller than the trees and shifted them with one hand to pass through the forest. How strong would it really be?

"And the one we heard were probably a dozen of them?" The colonel asked to confirm and Dexter and Leo nodded.

"There's still hope." Zain said fiercely. "As long as the creatures don't attack, we can grow stronger."

"He's right. As long as we remain here in the camp, we'll be safe until we can cross the forest." Chapman paused to take out a cigarette and lighted it by touching the tip. "Passing around it would be suicide as there is a stream of water beside the forest."

Dexter looked around to see whether he was the only one who didn't understand and after seeing everyone's confused faces, except for Beatrice though, he relaxed.

"The asteroids that fell during the tiran impact released gases into the ocean. And due to water, the gas spread all over the world through the ocean. Almost all creatures in the sea should be titans now."

Hearing the colonel's words Dexter couldn't believe it. If what he said was true then the sea was currently the most dangerous place on earth.

"Has there been any luck contacting other bases?" Zain asked and Chapman sighed.

"I wasn't able to communicate with any military base. We might as well be on our own at this point."

...

After that meeting they just decided to do things normally.

Dexter and Leo would have to wait for Laurence and his men to get back from the tower.

Now, they only have to relax.

While Dexter was walking around, close to the fence, observing the surroundings, a voice called him from behind.

"Hm?" He looked back to see Rina walking towards him.

"I thought you were busy training new recruits." Dexter continued as she caught up with him.

"I was but I really needed to talk to you." Rina smiled warmly. "We haven't still talked about what happened at the police station three days ago."

Dexter's eyes widened as he heard her. He thought that they just left it at that and abandoned the case.

"You're hiding your real strength and rank, aren't you?" Rina questioned, looking at his chest instead of his eyes.

Dexter couldn't say anything. He indeed thought that situation was in the past.

But Rina didn't dwell on the topic for long and changed the subject.

"Um. I was wondering if you had a girlfriend." Rina said shyly, before looking at his face and Dexter knew where this was going.

"I have a girlfriend." Dexter revealed, making Rina look down with a dissapointed face.

"Don't be sad. There are a lot of great guys out there." Dexter tried to comfort her. "What do you think about Leo?"

"Hm?" Rina looked up in confusion.

"He seems to like you a lot. I think you should give him a chance." Dexter said while nodding but Rina was just confused.

"No. He doesn't." She smiled bitterly.

"Actually, he does. He's just not letting it show." Both of them turned to see Leo and Zain in the distance, walking alongside each other while talking.

"How do you know that?" She asked as she kept looking at Leo.

"We had a bonding session in the forest." Dexter revealed with a smile and Rina smiled at his remark.

So after that Dexter went to a small section where people eat and decided to eat early. However, a certain conversation piqued his interest.

"The missing people? Really?"

"Yeah, in total three people are now missing from the camp."

"I heard of that. Both of them went out of the camp, never to be seen again."

"What do you think?"

"For it to happen two times in a row, it's definitely not just a coincidence."

While Dexter listened to the situation he already finished his food and that was when Zain and Leo came in to eat, so he decided to hang with them.

It wasn't long before a soldier rushed him, panting heavily.

"Sirs, we're under attack."

Hearing the soldier, the people around them got frightened by the news.

"Under attack? Zombies?" Zain asked.

"Yes. There are more than 60 of them." The soldier said, unease settling on his face.

"Dexter will deal with them since they're just zombies. I still gotta finish my meal." Zain said and continued to eat while Leo just gave him a thumbs up.

Dexter sighed as he followed the soldier outside to see a crowd of zombies approaching the camp, running quickly while the soldiers rained bullets on them.

'It's been a while since I fought normally.' Dexter thought as he approached the entrance of the camp.
