Stronghold In The Apocalypse

Chapter 17: Leo as a "Housekeeper"

After a few moments, the surrounding Zombies are finally eliminated.

"Alright, go back inside and get some rest" Leo ordered.

Tom and the rest didn't say anything as they made their way inside, limping from exhaustion.

"Now then, I think I should resupply while I'm here" Leo grinned as closed the gate and opened the system map and marked one of the nearest banks near him.

Leo immediately boarded Michelle's car that was left on the roadside and started the engine and drove towards his destination.

"Is he leaving us again and this time for good!?" Michael yelled at the balcony when he saw Leo speeding away.

"What!? What happened?" Joe and the rest came running back up from downstairs when they heard Michael yelling.

"I just saw Leo speeding away at Michelle's car!"

"What!?" all of them frowned at the same time.

"He probably need to take care of some business somewhere and after all he even willing stayed here and even looked out for us earlier" Tom who was the oldest said to them in a more rational way.

"Then why didn't tell us anything then" Joe raised his voice.

"Well, I don't know. Maybe, he didn't tell us about it because we will just get on his way. We all should be clear that without him, we would have probably been bitten or died somewhere if no one rescued us and also do you guys even had the guts to go outside to forage for supplies, if your supplies ran out with all the Zombies that was roaming around here before?" Tom said to Joe not backing down in the slightest.

Joe flinched and thought what he said and realized that "We aren't afraid of going out if we just brave through but if what happened earlier happened to us without Leo looking out for us then...we would probably bitten to death" Joe said as his voiced started getting softer and his two brother's had their faces turning grim especially Josh as his lips started turning pale when he remembered that he would have died by now if it wasn't for Leo's timely intervention.

"See? So just relax and get some rest like he said, he wouldn't just leave us here because he wouldn't get anything from abandoning us and not forgetting the fact that I think he has a thing to you Sister and maybe my daughter too" Tom said calmly to them while shaking his hand and raised his right eyebrow in thought as he already started to realized that the reason that they are still alive and well is because of those two girls.

"Alrighty then" Leo got down from the car and activated his Armor and took out his fire ax and decapitated the Zombies that went near him while waked towards the bank in front of him, It was Unity Bank.

Leo stood in front of the glass door and postured himself as he positioned his right foot backward.

"Haaa!" Leo gathered his strength towards his right leg as a manifestation of a bear behind him also roared as he kicked the glass door so hard that it broke into tiny pieces.

Leo slowly walked towards the direction of the massive vault and stood in front of it.

"Now then, how do i bypass this thick vault door?" Leo started thinking while he would swung his Fire Ax at the Zombies that followed him inside.

But what Leo did next would have dumbfounded someone if they are watching him. Leo put climbed on the lower hinges that's connected to the circular door and put both of his hands on the upper hinges that also connects it to the door.

"Grraaaaahhh!" Leo put all of his strength on it as he tried to pry it that section that connects the hinges and the door. For an ordinary human being, this kind of stupid thinking would have someone laughing at him, probably even the God of Thief would mock him but Leo is not an ordinary person but a cheat person who has 29 points in Strength Stat. In terms of "Cultivation", he would have already been a the peak of the 2nd Stage of Houtian Realm that someone can exert a force of 600 Kgs.

"Graah!!...Aahhhhh!!!" Leo loudly yelled as the veins on his body bulge inside the Armor and the metal was slowly peeled off when he gave that last shout which attracted a lot of Zombies inside the building.

"You have gained 2 Strength stat for doing something almost impossible with your current strength" the system's voice rang within his mind.

"Alright!" Leo shouted in joy and raised his fist upwards as he felt a newfound strength coursing through his body but stopped midway because he noticed that numerous Zombies are already starting to swarm him due to the commotion that he did.

"Damn, this f*ckers are really annoying and would always interrupt me when I'm doing something important" Leo cursed on his breath.

"Haist, It seems it can't be helped" Leo sighed as he picked up his Fire Ax on the ground and slowly walked towards the nearest Zombie and immediately planted the Fire Ax on its head, splitting it's head in two.

Two minutes later, Leo finally killed all Zombies inside as the system notifications continuously rang within his mind.

"Killed a Level 1 Zombie and gained 1 Defender Coin"

"Killed a Level 2 Zombie and gained 10 Defender Coins"

"Killed a Level 3 Zombie and gained 20 Defender Coins"

"Killed a Level 2 Zombie and gained 10 Defender Coins"

"Damn, these is starting getting hard to kill and one of them is even Level 3 now. If this continuous , the human race will slowly disappear on Earth" Leo face turned grim realizing that these Zombies are growing stronger than expected.

"Hmm..I'll worry about it when I have more people and weapons under me"

Leo continued what he was doing earlier and successfully broke the vault door.

"Dammnn...This is thing is at least a meter thick" Leo said in surprised before entering inside.

"Now, this is money!!" Leo exclaimed in surprise as he saw stacks and stacks of green money and even some gold coins inside.

Leo then hastily stuffed all the money inside his Inventory and the counter inside the inventory is rising as the USD are automatically converted to Pounds from 30,000 it became 4,829,975.

Leo immediately rushed out of the Bank after "cleaning" it like a professional "housekeeper" as he evaded the roaming Zombies that went inside as he sped off along the road but then stopped at a convenience store that he spotted and also "cleaned" it up before heading back towards the safe house.
