Lu An came back with a haggard look on his face. He went to Li Na and handed over his loot in his bag to her.
Li Na was curious about what happened to Lu An, but she did not dare to ask. He looked very weary and badly needed a rest, so she would not waste his time here.
"This is my today's loot..." His voice was weak as if all his energy drained from his body, "Where's Boss?"
Hearing the question, Li Na turned toward the private elevator where only Lu An and Tang Shaoyang could use it... No, since the military girl appeared, it counted as three.
"He's in his room..." Her words trailed off as Lu An immediately headed toward the elevator. As he entered the elevator, he immediately called out Origin.
"Origin! Can I meet Boss now?"
"Nope! You can't! Master is currently busy with Lady Mengyao!" Origin's reply came fast.
"What's wrong with you? You don't look that good!"
Lu An ignored Origin's question as he pressed 15 and asked back, "Lady Mengyao?"
"Yes, she is your Boss's woman, your Lady Boss. She will be the first General of the Tang Empire and you will work with her to establish the Tang Empire's military!"
Lu An had not met the military girls yet, so he did not know his Boss had taken in soldiers.
Ding!
The elevator door opened and Lu An immediately headed out toward his room. As he entered his room, he immediately headed to the bathroom to take a shower.
"What about Li Na! I heard she is also Boss's woman?" Lu An asked in a frown. He respected his Boss, but he did not expect his Boss to be a womanizer.
"Li Na is not your Boss's woman. What happened to them is an equal exchange, " Origin did not explain further the detail and continued with what piqued its interest, "Really? What happened to you? There's something wrong with you!"
Lu An wanted to speak, but he was hesitating. In the end, he shook his head and let the cold water wash his body as he closed his eyes.
"You can tell your concern to me and I will relay it to Master as soon as he finishes his activity later, " Origin did not give as he continued to ask.
After hesitating for a while, Lu An told what happened on the way back. About Zhuang and Ren's betrayal, Qi Zhengsheng planned to take the shelter, and about him who killed these nine people.
As he told that, once again, his hand was trembling visibly.
"Hohoho... Finally, you have taken the first step! But now it seems you feel guilty for killing those guys, right? You want Master to comfort you right now, "
"However, if you want to follow Boss to the end, you have successfully taken the first step. In the future, you will have to kill more people because there will be another Qi Zhengsheng, Zhuang, and Ren!"
"You can't be this weak, Lu An. You have to get used to this. What you are doing is not wrong so you don't have to feel guilty about it. If you didn't kill them, they would come to kill you and Boss! There's a saying, "Giving mercy to your enemies means you are being cruel to yourself..." Origin's words trailed off.
"Is that, right? Or a pity to your enemies..." Origin seemed not confident with the words it quoted, causing Lu An to chuckle.
"Huh, where did you hear this? Did you hear from Boss?" He shook his head at the Smart AI's antics.
"I heard it from the other survivors... Ah, whatever... Hear me, boy! You are not in the same world as before, there's no longer law, and no one is going to judge you from killing those guys! The World has changed! The strong is the law!"
He rested his head on the sofa and closed his eyes. Not long after that, he heard soft steps from the bathroom's direction.
Mengyao wanted to head to the bedroom but halted her steps when she heard the voice.
She headed toward Tang Shaoyang, wearing a white bathrobe and using a towel to dry her hair. She sat next to her man.
Tang Shaoyang frowned before a mischievous smile formed on his lips, "Why don't you wear your clothes? Are you tempting me?"
Zhang Mengyao rolled her eyes, "Tempting you, your foot! I don't have any clothes! You tore my military uniform as well as my clothes last night!"
"It was not me who tore your military uniform, alright! It was a zombie!"
"Wear my clothes first. I will buy your clothes later! Lu An is coming up, you can't hear that before him!" Tang Shaoyang pointed his finger toward the wardrobe direction.
Mengyao had heard about Lu An, so she nodded and changed to Tang Shaoyang's clothes. His shirt was too big, but it only increased her appeal.
She chose a red shirt and black pants as the wardrobe was filled with the same type of clothes.
Mengyao noticed Shaoyang's fervent gaze on her body. Surprisingly, she did not feel disgusted or detest him.
'Maybe because we have slept together or because he is my man!'
She sat next to Shaoyang and said, "Not this morning, you promised me to bring me to a place to level up!"
"I know! I will save energy for tonight!" Tang Shaoyang grinned.
Not long after that, the door opened and Lu An entered the room with a tray in his hand. Lu An was a bit surprised to see Zhang Mengyao despite receiving a head up from Origin.
Lu An placed the coffee and sat on the opposite of his Boss.
"Good Morning, Boss!"
Tang Shaoyang nodded as he took a sip of the coffee.
"I called you here to introduce her to you..." He told Lu An Zhang Mengyao's identity as someone from the military and a few details of his plan about establishing a military system with Lu An and Mengyao as the center.
"Also, he is my wife!"
Hearing the last sentence, Lu An grinned and greeted Mengyao, "Hello, Lady Boss~ I am..."
"No, Don't call me Lady Boss! Just call me Sister-in-Law will do!" Mengyao refused to be called Lady Boss.
They talked a bit of fifteen minutes before leaving the shelter together.
When they arrived at the destination, Lu An was surprised. The destination was a familiar place to him, Fogged Park.
"We will be hunting the beasts in this park!" Tang Shaoyang declared and turned toward Mengyao, "Don't get too far from me and only kill the dying beast I toss you later, understand?"
Mengyao nodded nervously.
He only instructed Mengyao as he believed Lu An could take care of himself.
He led the party into the Fogged Park. The moment he stepped into the Fogged Park, a notification rang in his head.
