Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

Chapter 459: 459

I started laughing hysterically but Kaley soon shook her head in amus.e.m.e.nt as she went on top of me and gave me a kiss. I tasted her sweet lips once more but we heard a knock on the door.

“Just a sec!” I shouted before Kaley and I grabbed some clothes to put on.

“It’s us!” we heard Tatiana’s voice.

“Just putting on some clothes!” I replied.

“Hah! As if we didn’t s-” Tatiana was about to continue when she gt interrupted.

“Shh! We’re still not inside the safe zone!” we then heard Cynthia’s voice.

“The safe zone? When did we call it the safe zone?” then Tatiana’s voice followed once more.

“It’s literally in the name, the safe zone!” Cynthia continued.

“Our rooms are also safe zones.” then we heard Rin’s voice.

“Yeah, but~ this one is the safe-safe zone!” Cynthia chuckled.

It didn’t take long before I opened the door and they saw Kaley and I wearing simple clothing. However, Tatiana took a deep breath and looked at us wickedly.

“You guys just f.u.c.k.i.e.d, correct?” Tatiana chuckled.

“Yep.” Kaley and I answered at the same time much to their surprise.

“Oh~ not getting embarrassed about it now, are we? That’s a step in the right direction. In any case~ not that we’re in the safe zone…” Tatiana trailed as she removed her top.

It revealed Tatiana’s bare upper body with progress on the tattoo Daisy was working on her. She just casually placed her shirt on top of a chair then she stretched her body, highlighting most of her curves and body lines. Cynthia blushed from Tatiana casually doing that while Rin and Kaley simultaneously went for the locks on the door, shaking their head at Tatiana’s actions. However, I almost knocked Tatiana out when she started unbuttoning her jeans.

“Hah! I thought you wouldn’t stop me. I thought this was the safe zone? Couldn’t we do anything inside the safe zone?” Tatiana chuckled.

“You’re abusing the safe zone’s powers!” Cynthia added, laughing.

“Could you guys stop it with the safe zone…” Rin was shaking her head.

“So, what are you guys up to?” Kaley asked.

“Hmm? Not much, we’re just waiting for dinner. How about you two?” Tatiana replied.

“Right, we should inform everyone. We’re making our own dinner tonight and we’ll postpone the meeting for tomorrow. I-” I was about to continue but Kaley interrupted me.

“Wait, why don’t we just have dinner with everyone, attend the meeting, and just skip going to the gym? It shouldn’t take that long, right?” Kaley suggested.

“Woah there, you’re cooking? Why don’t you just cook something after the meeting? It’s been a while.” Tatiana added.

“How about the dinner prepared for us?” Rin asked.

“I don’t know about you all but I could eat a lot. I could eat dinner and even another dinner.” Tatiana raised her hands much to their envy.

‘Missed opportunity to almost reference ‘What about second breakfast?’ haaa~’ I thought to myself.

“So, what are we doing? Sorry for barging in your little late-night date~” Cynthia chuckled.

“How about this…” I trailed as I told them what we would do.

We joined everyone for dinner and we soon started the meeting. I would still be cooking something later but it would just be treated as a midnight snack depending on the circ.u.mstances.

“Before we start, let’s thank our farming team led by Charlotte and Amanda for the fresh pechay and tomatoes that were included in our meal earlier. Well, don’t forget about the people who cooked it because the sardines combined with it tasted great!” I said as I started the meeting.

It wasn’t much for some people but being recognized and thanked for the work anyone had could go a long way. The people I mentioned gave smiles even if they were embarrassingly nodding to each compliment they received.

“Okay, who’s gonna give their report first?” I asked then the leaders of the clearing group stood up.

Jay and Dong reported that the Barangay of Coloong was successfully sealed off. It didn’t have the sturdy and large gates we had on our entry points to our barangay but chain-linked fences were erected to block off the passage of the dead which were trying to come in. I gave them separate barangays to work with but they decided that it would be faster to clear one if they just worked on one collectively then moving on to the next.

It was because I would sometimes call on them for help and their operation would be paused. So, that was the method they came up with on their own.

“We already took the essential items inside that barangay, but there are still items there like clothes, vehicles, electronics, and etc. that could still be taken back. We guess once we gated and reinforced the walls in that area, the people moving there would have something to start with.” Jay explained.

“Boss, there’s also fish ponds there so we could breed more fish in that area which was something the people over there were doing before it started. Most of the buildings there are just houses so aside from the rental boats from the small docks, there was not much variety to loot aside from that construction shop and that auto-rental place.” Dong added.

“Yeah, that’s good. Once you also clear the Barangay of Tagalag and Bisig, we’d have more land available to us. Those are two barangays right next to each other but the Barangay of Coloong is still bigger than those two combined. So, clearing them would take less time. However, we’re mostly clearing them to have more safe zones- err, a-areas where there are no deadheads so having people move there isn’t the best idea.” I explained.

“Hmm, makes sense.” Jay nodded.

“Besides, our barangay still had plenty of space to hold all our people so making others move there to spread out is not a good idea for now. Unless it’s for creating another outpost which we already have a couple of that are much farther. Furthermore, the fishing areas we have still have plenty of space so we wouldn’t be needing more fishing areas as of yet. As I said, it’s just for having more land we could make sure isn’t infested.” I added.

“And what’s after that, Boss? Rincon?” Mark asked.

“Barangay of Isla would be next, not Rincon.” I replied.

“Wait, Isla? Boss, can I ask why aren’t we clearing the Barangay of Rincon first? It’s much closer compared to the other two barangays too, right?” Mark asked.

“That barangay is just too exposed. Remember that we’re closing off areas one by one but Rincon just had too many entrances and exits to cover. We’ll eventually close it off but we should first clear the areas that have few land entrances and locked by the water naturally. Besides, have you forgotten the gold mine that is sitting in Isla?” I chuckled.

My workers looked at me for a moment before slapping their foreheads in realization while the others not familiar with the area were confused.

“Boss! Why the f.u.c.k didn’t we go to that barangay in the first place?!” Mark exclaimed, excited.

“Motherf.u.c.ker, why didn’t we think of that?” Unc Zardon scratched his head in disbelief.

“Wait, wait, wait you little shits. The f.u.c.k are you talking about?” Oscar was confused the same as Matthew and Johnny. Even Mauricio looked at me, waiting for me to speak but I just wore the most wicked smile I could.

“Nothing… just 32,000 solar panels spread across 12 hectares of land?” I said as I chuckled.

Silence. Complete and total f.u.c.k.i.n.g silence.

“You gotta be kidding me… KID?! THE F.U.C.K DIDN’T WE GO TO THAT PLACE WHEN WE’RE SCRAMBLING FOR PANELS?! THE F.U.C.K ARE YOU SMILING ABOUT?! ISN’T THIS A HUGE OVERSIGHT?! ISN’T THAT PLACE GETTING TAKEN APART ALREADY?! IS IT EVEN IN ONE PIECE?! WHY ARE YOU ONLY BRINGING IT UP UNTIL NOW?!” Oscar was flabbergasted as he bellowed.

“Calm down, old man. It’s still in one piece though it needed to be cleared from the dead.” I replied.

“WHA- HOW THE F- HOW COULD YOU BE SO F.U.C.K.I.N.G CALM AFTER THAT?! KID?! 32,000 F.U.C.K.I.N.G SOLAR PANELS?! WE’D BE SET FOR LIFE IN THIS BARANGAY!!! THE F.U.C.K ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! WE SHOULD DROP ALL OUR ONGOING PROJECTS AND START DISASSEMBLING SHIT!!!” Oscar’s head was running on all cylinders and he couldn’t hear what I was saying.

“OLD MAN! OUR PLAN OF TAKING OVER SHIT IS NOT STOPPING ON THIS BARANGAY, REMEMBER?! GETTING A CITY IS JUST THE STARTING QUEST!!! WE ALREADY HAVE ENOUGH FOR NOW SO WE SHOULD THINK OF OTHER THINGS TO DO FIRST! NOT EVERYTHING REVOLVES ON ELECTRICITY!!” I shouted as well to drown him out.

“Kid, kid, kid, kid, kid- you’re not f.u.c.k.i.n.g thinking straight! We should- we should at least- F.U.C.K! EVEN I CAN’T EVEN THINK STRAIGHT! WE SHOULD GET THEM ALL BEFORE ANOTHER GROUP GETS THEIR HANDS ON THOSE!!! FOR F.U.C.K’S SAKE KID, THE F.U.C.K?! HOW COULD YOU BE SURE THAT NO ONE’S BEEN TO THEM YET?!” Oscar continued.

“Borris and Cyrill are frequenting that area. They’re giving reports every day to Vera so I know it’s still waiting for us to get to it. Sheesh, I should’ve brought it up when the time’s right. We’re still following my internal schedule and we’re doing excellent. Besides, as I said, that number is too much for our place as of yet.” I explained.

“…” Oscar didn’t say a word but he was still breathing heavily.

“Don’t forget, between the things we are doing and the people we have available, it would take a lot of time to get them all. It’s not like we’re doing nothing these past months because we’ve been very f.u.c.k.i.n.g busy. Also, just to calm your tits, it would need more than a f.u.c.k.i.n.g screwdriver to get them off. Regular people wouldn’t have the tools and the knowledge to get to them and we’re not one of the regular people.” I continued.

“But kid, I know we made plans but we should at least secure a few hundred just in case, right?” Oscar calmed down but he seemed to be having a slight headache.

“The way I see it, we should let that place be as it is because we’ll eventually take over everything. We could just have it transfer energy to the right places once we need it. Don’t even worry about security because all we need to do after clearing that place is to block off three entrances where one is already taken care of. Also…” I decided to explain everything about a plan that was supposed to be discussed in the future at the right time just to appease Oscar’s worries.

“Okay, okay. I get it. Mark?” Oscar turned around to look for Mark.

“Yeah?” Mark replied.

“Going to the gym?”

“Later… yes. Why?”

“32,000 push-ups or I’ll take back the gear I gave you.”

“WHAT?!”

“IT’S ALL YOUR FAULT, YOU LITTLE SHIT!”

“WHAT DID I DO?!”

“YOU BROUGHT THE TOPIC UP AND IT MADE ME HAVE A HEADACHE!”

“IT’S NOT MY FAULT YOU’RE PRONE TO THEM, WHY DO I HAVE TO SUFFER?!”

“I’M OLD AND HAVE IMPULSIVE TENDENCIES TO MAKE RASH JUDGEMENT, DEAL WITH IT!”

“AT LEAST LET THE OTHERS DO IT WITH ME!”

“SURE!”

“DEAL!”

“WHAT THE F.U.C.K MARK?!”
