Undying Warlord

Even though the fight didn’t last long, Dilan was quite satisfied with the outcome.

He was only scratched once while fighting against the ten strongest zombies at once.

Absorbing all Essence crystals without minding whether they were ordinary, Bronze, Silver, or Tier-1 Essences, Dilan nodded his head with a sly smile on his lips.

“Maybe I should focus on clearing one of the hospital’s towers on my own…boosting [Immunity] might be quite important for the future!”

Speaking to himself while glancing at the requirements to upgrade his passive ability, Dilan knew that they had to absorb far more ordinary Essence and Bronze Essences.

As such, he was already coming up with a plan to upgrade it.

But before Dilan would avert his focus on his abilities, there was something else he had to take care of.

By the time most of the Essences were absorbed by him, Williams and the others had also reached the first floor.

In the beginning, they wanted to help him but Williams stopped everyone who wanted to intervene.

Nobody disobeyed the head shepherd’s words as they saw him observing Dilan with a vibrant smile on his face.

Williams had been observing Dilan’s fight with gleaming eyes. He clearly understood how strong Dilan was.

However, even if he realized that the young man was strong, he wanted to find out more about Dilan._-.

“Miles, what does your [Perception] tell you about him?” William didn’t even have to look at Miles to sense that the young teenager, whose age didn’t exceed 16 years, frowned deeply while observing Dilan.

For more than ten minutes, Miles had been staring at Dilan with a tense posture. Sweat was trickling down his forehead.

“May I be honest, head shepherd?” He knew that he had to be careful with his next words. Otherwise, he might accidentally hurt the head shepherd’s pride and be subjected to his irk.

In fact, he would not only get on the bad side of the head shepherd but also that of every single member of the shepherds’ gang the moment he was honest with what he perceived.

But even if that was the case, Miles was unable to help himself from stating the truth which is why he hesitated a bit. After all, what he saw was simply too terrifying.

“Go on.”

William knew that Miles’ words wouldn’t be pleasant to hear. But even then, he wanted to know what exactly Miles perceived!

“Well…to put it plainly, the man who defended the police station is a monster in human skin…I’m pretty sure that nobody here can defeat him…not even if we all of us work together, and make all kinds of thorough preparations…”

Miles could have said a lot more, but he felt that he was unable to do so when he felt that the five members of the head shepherd’s inner ring would stare him to death!

Williams remained quiet after hearing what Miles said before nodding his head.

“I guess that’s it then. I have made my decision!”

He didn’t sound overly frustrated about the choice he was about to make. However, that was not the case with the others, who looked at him with a deep frown.

“Boss…are you serious?! We worked together for so many years…and now you want to give up everything, to hand us over to a…brat???”

It was one of the men in his 30s who asked him in disbelief while pointing at Dilan.

Yet, the moment the man said ‘brat’, everyone couldn’t help but knit their eyebrows slightly.

“If brats are that strong and fight like this one, I want to be one as well.” Williams said amusingly.

However, nobody laughed at the joke.

They didn’t understand Williams’ train of thoughts, the fact that they were not able to feed their people for long anymore, and the obvious sign that the Death Beatles gang were not joking with them. The Death Beatles gang wanted their death and the warning had been more than enough to make this clear.

William might be confident in his own strength but even he was not able to defeat the group of zombies as easily as Dilan. Maybe…Dilan would be strong enough to achieve everything Williams hoped for…just maybe.

Thus, Williams could only smile sheepishly before he turned serious once again as he saw that Dilan approached them.

“Were you guys able to extract some information from these two? They were the strongest in their small batch, so I guessed that they should know the most.”

Blood, brain matter, and small pieces of flesh were stuck in his Clawed Gloves, smeared on his face, and all over his clothes.

One could easily deduce that his appearance was certainly not that of a gentle and kind man.

But the way he spoke in a calm and soothing voice was the complete opposite of his appearance and the words he said.

Williams turned toward the two men Dilan had caught and crippled. Xenia, the woman who defended Williams the whole time, squatted on the ground right in front of them.

She had procured quite a bit of information for them, while Williams and the others were busy observing Dilan’s fight against the zombies.

Her head turned toward Williams the moment she was asked a question and informed them about her progress with the two hostages.

Williams nodded in return before facing Dilan once again.

“Xenia found out a bit, but let me tell you about my decision, first!”

Without feeling too burdened by the way Williams spoke about his decision, Dilan took a few steps ahead.

He threw a short glance toward the two members of the Death Beatles gang, just to revert his attention back to Williams.

“We will join you! Don’t disappoint us and show some ambition while growing stronger!!”

Williams looked quite excited when he spoke about joining Dilan.

Having witnessed his fight against the zombies, and how mercilessly he killed fellow humans it was quite clear that he was merciless to the people who offended or attacked him.

Meanwhile, the fact that Dilan had mercy on them was a clear sign that he was not only sensible but also someone who could comprehend what the best long-term decision would be.

Every single fact connected to each other, resulting in the decision Williams took to join Dilan on his journey!

Hearing a favorable response from them made Dilan feel a bit happy. But only a moment later he turned serious once again.

“The Death Beatles know about your hideout, so we should move places as quickly as possible. Their ways are quite aggressive, so I guess they will use other means to attack once they find out that their surprise gift turned out to be an even bigger surprise for themselves!”

Dilan’s conclusion was spot on. The moment the Death Beatles gang would find out about their failure, they would attack more fiercely using different means.

Thus, moving away from the police station was quite important.

“Williams, you can become the head for the combat units. That would make things the easiest. As long as everyone in your gang follows the rules I set up in our community, there won’t be any problem.”

Williams had the most experience in leading people in battle. This was quite obvious as he was the only Boss of a gang, who Dilan knew.

And the members of the gang trusted Williams, which turned him into the most important personnel for combat purposes.

That meant Dilan was able to control everyone as long as he had Williams under his thumb.

This was amongst the most important to maintain control.

However, at the same time, Dilan knew that he had to gain everyone’s trust, which could be achieved as long as Williams trusted him.

But instead of wasting any time getting into everyone’s good books, Dilan wanted to leave.

“We can move quite fast. The police station had three buses for the transport of prisoners. If we transport the Survivors first, and the goods later, we need to drive back and forth six to seven times, but it’s the fastest way to move!” Sven, one of the other men in Williams’ inner ring suddenly suggested.

From the looks of it, Sven had already accepted Dilan as the new boss.

Rules of power and strength stated that the strongest was the leader.

As such, there shouldn’t be any problem for Dilan to gaining control over everything.

Throwing a second glance at the members of the Death Beatles gang which they had as hostages, he sighed for a moment before he made a decision.

“Xenia, write a report that includes everything you know about the Death Beatles gang. If you have figured out their current location, the number of their gang members, and what abilities the Gang leader has, write it down as well.”

After he said this, Dilan turned to Williams,

“You should also write down a report about the goods you guys have, how many Survivors you guys took in, and so on… We will need everything once everyone has relocated.”
