Zombie Apocalypse: Infinite Fusion - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: The Red Devill, La’at!

“Ah… my lord, I brought some rations with me in this sack.”

The middle-aged man answered truthfully.

Hearing this.

The guard was stunned.

His meal last night was radish soup.

This morning, he hadn’t even taken a bite.

When he heard about the rations, his eyes lit up..

It couldn’t be helped, he was too hungry right now.

“Okay, I got it.”

When he heard this answer, the guard subconsciously checked the contents of the bag and found that it was indeed a bag of wheat.

He then nodded and said to the middle-aged man.

“Okay, I got it.”

“Then tell me simply. Tell me who you want to visit. You can enter after making a record here.”

Hearing this.

The middle-aged man paused, as if he was recalling the name in his mind.

A heroic figure appeared in front of his eyes.

After thinking for a while, the middle-aged man directly said to the guard, “Hello, the person I’m looking for is Lord Elke.”

“Huh?”

Hearing this, the guard was stunned again, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him in surprise.

“You’re looking for Lord Elke?”

“Yes… It’s like this. Is Lord Elke not here?”

Seeing the guard’s reaction, the middle-aged man panicked. He thought that Lord Elke was not in the shelter.

However.

Hearing this, the guard slowly opened his mouth and gave an answer that surprised him even more.

The guard shook his head, sighed, and slowly said, “No, it’s not that Lord Elke is not here.”

“But that Lord he… has sacrificed.”

“Sacrificed? How is that possible!” The middle-aged man was shocked on the spot.

“No matter how much you don’t believe it, it’s the truth,” the guard looked at the middle-aged man and said slowly.

Obviously, he was also very disappointed and unhappy when the middle-aged man mentioned this matter.

Seeing the guard’s reaction, the middle-aged man came back to his senses. His eyes gradually widened, as if he was extremely unwilling to believe this result.

Then.

“So that’s how it is…”

After swallowing his saliva and suppressing the sadness in his heart, the middle-aged man looked at the guard again and said, “Is there any family of Lord Elke in the shelter?”

“If there is, I can meet them instead.”

“I see…” The guard thought for a moment and then said, “If you really want to count, Lord Elke’s son is still here. If you want to meet him, go ahead. I can give you his address.”

The middle-aged man’s expression finally brightened up when the guard said that.

“Okay, okay. Thank you.”

“It’s okay. Lord Elke treated us so well when he was alive. It’s our duty to help him.”

The guard smiled as he opened the door and continued.

“Lord Elke’s son is called Albert. As for his address, go straight and turn right. It’s the second house on the right.”

The guard pointed for the middle-aged man.

“Okay, okay. Thank you.”

The middle-aged man thanked him as he led his wife into the shelter.

At the same time.

Albert, who was closing himself in his room, naturally did not know about this.

At this moment, his had very dark under-eye circles as he did not sleep well yesterday.

Because when he thought of his father’s death, he felt uncomfortable all over.

Thinking of this.

He subconsciously took out the devil mask from his pocket and began to reminisce.

Looking at this mask, it was as if he was looking at his deceased father.

Unknowingly, Albert’s gaze was deeply immersed in this mask.

Suddenly.

At this moment.

A red light flashed on the mask.

“Huh?” Albert was momentarily taken aback.

He seemed to have suddenly seen a red light flash on the mask.

This… Could it be that he had seen wrongly?

After rubbing his eyes and realizing that the mask was still the same as before, ordinary.

“Phew, I really saw wrongly just now.”

Albert let out a light breath and spoke slowly.

But for no reason, when he looked at the mask again.

At this moment, it was as if there was some kind of magic power. The scarlet mask seemed to be calling out to him.

It made him reach out and touch the scarlet mask uncontrollably.

It was at this moment…

A mass of scarlet light burst forth.

A voice suddenly sounded on the scarlet mask.

“Hahaha, looks like another human has triggered this Devil’s Seal!”

“Then… come in!”

As the scarlet mask shouted.

“What’s going on?” Albert was completely stunned.

However, before he could react.

A scarlet light swept over.

The next moment.

When Albert opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find that his surroundings were pitch black, and there was only a ball of red light shining in front of him.

Where… was this?

Questions immediately arose in Albert’s heart.

At this moment.

The red light in front of him flourished, gradually revealing the figure of a red Devil.

The face of the Devil was exactly the same as the face of the devil mask.

The moment he saw the Decil.

Albert was completely stunned.

Before he could panic.

The red Devil smiled and slowly said, “Don’t be afraid, kid. I know you.”

“Even… Your father’s power was given to him by me.”

“What?”

Hearing this, Albert was stunned.

“You said that my father’s power was given by you?”

“That’s right, kid. Are you surprised?”

The red Devil said with a slow smile.

Hearing this.

Albert was stunned again.

Seeing that Albert did not speak, the red Devil continued to smile. “That’s right. That’s indeed the truth.”

After he spoke.

Albert finally calmed down.

Although he did not know what the situation was with the red Devil in front of him.

But there was one thing he was certain of.

And that was that the other party had such a strange energy, so he was definitely not weak.

Then such a powerful existence would definitely not lie to him.

Thinking of this.

Albert calmed down instead.

His eyes moved and he regained his composure. He slowly said, “I understand. Lord Devil, why did you call me here?”

“It can’t be to play house with a child, right?”

Saying this, Albert smiled instead, the corners of his mouth curving up.

“Oh?”

Hearing this, the red Devil also laughed.

Then, he covered his face and his laughter became louder and louder,

“Hahahahahaha!”

“I didn’t expect that, kid. You’ve gotten used to it quite quickly. Have you calmed down so quickly?”

At this point.

The red Devil’s smile slowly faded. He looked at Albert and said, “Kid, you’re right. I did bring you here for something.”

“Let me first briefly introduce myself.”

The red Devil looked at Albert and slowly said, “As you can see, I am the Devil residing on the scarlet mask. My name is La’at.”

“And I did find you here for a reason.”

“And this reason is… to reach a new contract!”

At this point, La’at’s gaze fixed on Albert.

“A new contract?” Albert was stunned.

“That’s right.”

La’at responded and slowly came to Albert’s side. He said, “Do you know how your father got such a strong power?”

As he said this, Albert basically understood. He looked at La’at in surprise.

“Could it be you?”

“That’s right. When he picked me up in the ruins, he also triggered the seal.”

“At that time, he made a wish to me to have the power to protect his family.”

“So I made a contract with your father and gave him my Devil power.”

La’at looked at Albert and slowly said as if he was blaming him.

“But I never thought that he would suddenly die just to save you.”

Albert was not happy about the sudden mention of this matter. He looked at La’at and slowly said.

“Stop mentioning that. You can’t bring the dead back to life even by saying that.”

La’at couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Albert’s expression.

“Hehe, kid, don’t be so angry. I came looking for you to give you some benefits.”

“That ice-blue zombie, Frode. Without a doubt, you hate him a lot.”

La’at suddenly turned to Albert and said word by word with a smile.

“Now is the perfect time. The person who signed the contract with me is already dead.”

“That’s why I can sign a new contract with you and let you make a wish to obtain my Devil power.”

“If you obtain the power that is strong like that of your father, you won’t be as powerless as you are now if you want to take revenge on Frode, right?”

“How about it? Do you want to try, young man?”
