THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 198 - Good Dead Friend
“She is infected,” Adam said, even before Jared could ask. “No,” the latter said automatically as he shook his head. “Yes, I would lie about that,” Adam said sarcastically. “No, I don’t mean you are lying. I just... please don’t kill her.” “Why not? She is a threat to us all. Unless you want to be her first victim, tell me why I shouldn’t shoot her right in the middle of her eyes.” Adam had no remorse at all for the man’s pain. In fact, he wanted him to feel as much pain as he could. Maybe then he might have an idea of what he had put his daughter through. Also, he had a plan. The Watsons are users; why not turn their style right back on them? “Please, don’t do that." Jared said it in a mournful tone. "Gwen, it will kill...” “I'm still not hearing a reason,” Adam said dispassionately and he made a move to leave. “The virologist! I am sure he can come up with something that could cure her.” "Oh, you mean the man you and your buddy would have probably killed yesterday or put
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 199 - Molly's Misfortune
“Who the fuck is...?”Adam grabbed the naked man by the throat and slammed him hard against the wall of the treehouse.The treehouse rocked dangerously as Adam dragged the choking man outside the door, knocking Jared out of the way.Without hesitation, he threw the bastard on the floor.Scared and alarmed, the latter tried to drag air into his crushed windpipe as he wheezed. “What are you...?”A swift swing of Adam’s sword silenced him forever.Jared yelled as the man’s blood splashed on him where he fell.Adam was already turning to the door when the man who was still pumping himself into Molly earlier came stumbling through the door with a match in his hand.Adam sliced off the hand holding the matchet, then promptly grabbed him by the neck and slammed his head through the wood of the wall.The tree house groaned painfully and shook with the impact of the strike.Without hesitation, Adam beheaded the man, leaving the head stuck in the wood while the bloody body thumped to the floor,
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 200 - To Kill, To Live
Adam made a quick detour to the basement chemical station slash clinic.He told the chemists to put a stop to what they were doing.They were all reluctant at first but then his brisk manner made them realise that he was not a man they would want to cross paths with.He gave them new instructions before he left them with their mixing and measuring.Just as he came outside, he saw Gwen and her blood-spattered dad talking as he came outside.She hurried to him and asked, “Daddy told me what happened. It wasn’t daddy’s fault. Would you take it out on us? On mum?”Adam raised his voice so Jared could hear as he said, “Then I suppose your dad should have told you that asking stupid questions like that could get you killed faster than any other thing.”With that, Adam left them behind as he went to search for the men to have a discussion with them.He told Theo to get them together and they were all together in no time at all.Adam didn’t waste time explaining the situation to them.He aske
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 201 - Precarious Shrew
“About that cure...”Adam heard some of the men laugh, and he also smiled as well.Even though some of them ribbed the man good-naturedly, Adam could see that they were very interested in the answer to that question.So he answered it truthfully.“We have to use this on one of you at least to be certain it would do the same thing for you just as it did for my mom. A doctor would test that person after administering. Then we would need to do mass production so it would go around.”“Aye”“Good”“Hope at last.”The men spoke over themselves and genuine smiles showed on their faces as some of them thumped themselves on their backs as they went on their way.“Thank you,” the one-eared man said with a vigorous nod before he hurried after the rest.Their joy and obvious relief only weighed on Adam.He hoped the solution would work just as well as it should.If not, they were going to be so disappointed.“The test. That was what you wanted to do with me,” Theo said as he moved closer to Adam.
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 202 - New Breed
Adam couldn’t tell Carson. Once the men were in formation, and Layla and Maddy were overseeing the session, he excused himself and went to the virology centre. For the second time, he entered the centre and saw everyone busy with one thing and the other. If not for the madness raging outside that might crash over them anytime soon, one could almost take it for another normal day where scientists were doing what they do best. One of them told him where Carson was and Adam went there after assuring the lady that he wouldn’t just walk in without knocking first. Adam could see why she had insisted on that. The notice DO NOT ENTER UNLESS TOLD TO was in front of the room. Adam could see Carson and the woman he had once seen in UChicago working on something. They were both suited up and the woman had a chart and a pen in her hands like she was writing down observations about what Carson had in front of him. They were in what seemed like an intense conversation, so he waited for a pro
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 203 - Babysitting Unruly Men
Adam got back to the training ground to see Maddy beating the crap out of the one-eared man.Layla stood aside with no intention to separate them.Some of the men found it hard to concentrate on their training, as they kept looking over at the man whenever he groaned in pain.One thing Adam would give to the man, though, was that he kept getting up despite how many times Maddy kept slamming him to the ground.“I assume this is all part of training.” Adm asked Layla uncertainly.Even he winced at a particular slam dunk that Maddy gave the man.Layla looked back at him with a smile and said, “Yeah. A little bit of that. And a little bit because he reminded us that we are women and we don’t have any business showing them, the men, how to fight. Well, Maddy is showing him.”“And you are watching.”“Yep, enjoying it, actually,” Layla answered with a shrug.“Ah”“Ah”Layla looked back at him and smiled mischievously. "Alright,” she said with a long-suffering sigh. “Just do what you are itch
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 204 - Lord And Serf
“I am sorry,” Jared said again.Adam knew the man was not as remorseful as he was pretending to be. He just wanted Adam to do what he wanted.Jared looked up at him and said, “Okay, what about this? You all wanted us gone anyway. If you think she would be a threat to you all, you can let me have her. I have my car here. I can take her back to...take her away from here. She is my wife and you can’t just expect me to let you kill her like that.”“And someone else is your daughter but you don’t mind that your buddy would have killed her. Wow, real smooth, Watson. Real smooth”“I…”“I am not interested. I like your offer.”“You…you do?”"Dad!” Gwen protested with a whimper. “She already said we can stay.”Layla already spoke to them? Well, it doesn’t matter.Adam could see that the man had initially said what he said because he was expecting Adam to counter him.The coward had no intention of leaving, especially now that he had no human buffer to shield him and his precious family.Adam
THE APOCALYPTIC RISE OF ADAM Chp 205 - More Bark Than Bite
Patricia was a mess.Little of the uptight, well-groomed woman Adam had seen earlier was left in the new Patricia.She looked worse than she was the last time Adam saw her.Adam had to send Jared out after he tried twice to get close to her.Adam also had to steel his heart and remind himself of the kind of people they were in order not to feel sorry for them.Though it was barely audible, even Adam could hear the gttural, rumbling call of Jared’s name as Patricia pinned her gaze to him immediately as they entered.It was as if she was calling for help.The bloodshot eyes and black saliva dripping from the woman he had held in his arms seemed too much for Jared to bear.Adam felt for him for a second.Then he sent him out with explicit instructions for the men at the door that they shouldn’t let him back in.“Well, Patricia. Carson seems to think you are special. Are you going to prove him right or wrong?”Adam kept his gaze on her red-rimmed eyes as he spoke, just to gauge her reacti
