Stronghold In The Apocalypse 119 Unknown Beings

The five groups already stopped fighting and just looked on from the sidelines but they at least made sure to keep a close eye on each other and the women under Lhea had unwilling looks on their faces and even though they don't want to admit it but inside their hearts, they knew that the chances of them winning this battle is as low as one percent with the new addition of another Evolver as an enemy.

."I want sixty percent of what's inside the supply box and you, thirty percent and the rest would be divided to the rest of the group" John said with a rather arrogant tone especially with another Evolver on his side.

"What!? No! I want fifty-fifty!" Lhea immediately bellowed in anger when she heard John's suggestion on how to split the supplies.

Baldur, feeling that he didn't want to lose out immediately step forward and yelled at them, "I want thirty percent from the-" Baldur didn't even finish what he wanted to say when he suddenly got rudely interrupted.

""Shut up!"" John and Lhea yelled at the same time at Baldur which made the latter flinch as he step backwards multiple times then he looked at them with eyes fill with anger with veins bulging on his head.

"Hmmp!" Baldur just snorted and didn't say anymore.

"Sixty, thirty!" John said.

"No! Fifty-fifty!" Lhea angrily retorted back.

"Shut up Tomboy! You don't have any say in this! Sixty- thirty!" John yelled angrily as a cross-popping vein appeared above his right eyebrow.

"F*ck you! Do you really think we're afraid of you!?" Lhea in her anger showed her middle finger at John.

"Yeah! Do you really think were afraid of you just because you guys got another Evolver!?" the women on Lhea's side also called out their opinions and also gave John a middle finger.

"Shut up! My brother says sixty- thirty! So it's sixty-thirty!" Harold, finally couldn't hold it in yelled in immense anger.

"Shut up, you gorilla! If I was in my peak form, you wouldn't even be able to hold a candle against me!"

"Ha! Sorry but you aren't in your best form right now!" Harold said as his knuckles made snapping sounds. He really wants to go at it right now as he wants to test how powerful his ability is against this human Valkyrie.

"Hmmp!" Lhea just coldly snorted as she didn't have anything to retort towards that and she her head back towards John and just stared at him

John suddenly felt a shiver down his spine from being stared at. He felt that he was being stripped naked with her stare.

"Fine! Fifty five - Thirty five!" John finally compromised.

"Deal!" Lhea immediately agreed happily as she gripped her fist.

"W-what?" John was suddenly floored as he didn't expect her to immediately agree to it!

"Come on! Go, open it!" Lhea yelled at him.

"Harold, go open it" John gesture to the man behind him.

"Hmmp!" Harold grunted as he shot daggers at Lhea as he walked towards the supply box.

John then looked at Harold and was suddenly startled as he looked at Harold with surprise!

'Wait! How come he hadn't reverted to normal yet? Damn, his ability must really a long time duration to be use. Tsk! Tsk!' John thought as he felt a bit envious about it because he knows he could Lhea if his ability has a longer duration.

While John was deep in his own thoughts, Harold already opened the supply box and was just waiting for John's go signal.

"Ahem" John coughed as he noticed he was being absent minded so he immediately walked over to Harold and had him open the supply box.

Harold grunted and he pulled one side of the box open and the things inside immediately fell to the side. The supply box was filled with canned foods, some kind of hardtack like those food that army soldiers carries and 30 five hundred mL of bottled water and five tactical knives and lastly a couple of medicines of painkillers and antibiotics.

As per the the deal, John's groups had taken over half of the supplies inside and Lhea also took her own share and the scraps that were left behind was divided between the rest of the groups.

"Let's go!" John gestured towards his remaining men as they slowly trekked upon the uphill road as they headed towards where their vehicles are park.

"John!"

John turned his head back when he someone yelled his name and he immediately saw Lhea staring at him.

Lhea smiled at him and said coldly, "Next time...next time we meet will be your death anniversary!"

John didn't reply and just smiled coldly at her while Harold who already went back into his normal body size, snorted coldly towards Lhea.

Lhea didn't get angry with their reaction but instead coldly smile, "We'll see, if you can still smile the next time we meet. Let's go!"

After that small skirmish, the remaining leaders brought their people towards their vehicles as they headed towards their own destinations which each having their own plans to conquer and take the resources of the bases left behind by the groups that died earlier.

While some were happy with their gains, there are also who aren't. Especially Baldur because his share can't even amount to the losses he just incurred especially losing almost half of his forces in the battle. That's the reason why he plans to take over at least two or three of the camps who just lost their respective leaders to ease his losses today.

While they are busy with their own respective plans, what they didn't notice was that there was also another group watching them from a distance.

At the top of the only mall in town, there are two vague figure of silhouettes hiding within the shadows of the building.

"@#@&%$%@^%&!#@%" one of them was talking in some kind of a gibberish tone.

"@#%&#&%@%&@##%&%" replied the other one while the other one looks like it is nodding as it's "head" seems to be moving up and down.

After a few moments later, their figure disappeared from the shadows and the weird sound of an engine reverberated before it slowly disappeared as the sound seems to be moving away.

*****

In the car, John suddenly looked up towards the sky as he thought he heard the sound of an airplane engine or something similar like that.

'Huh? Was I imagining things? I thought I heard a plane pass by just now?' John thought as he continued looking around through the car window.

Moments later, John just shrugged it off and mumbled to himself, "I must be hearing things"

What Leo or John and the people surviving around the world didn't know was this was just the start of the prelude of even more astonishing and mysterious events that they wouldn't even dare to imagine other than Zombies or mutated beast or people suddenly gaining supernatural abilities.
