Tang Hao did not directly answer his question: “Our mission is to search for and protect Omegas as precious strategic resources until we can safely escort you back to base. You won’t be in any danger. The base is prepared to take you in and will soon transfer you to a safe zone…”
The young man was slightly stunned, not understanding where this sorrowful knowledge came from.
“Release your hostage, and we’ll act like nothing happened. If my soldiers were discourteous to you, I can apologize on their behalf…”
“No… no.” The young man interrupted Tang Hao’s words, his back pressed against the wall, gasping and shaking his head: “Put down your guns and let me leave. I must… right now…”
Tang Hao was about to say something when his expression suddenly changed.
Wails erupted from inside the prison building, seemingly from nearby, followed by countless dragging footsteps, and the distant rolling iron door began to be repeatedly struck!
Wall dust and stones fell, everyone’s expression changed dramatically. The deputy roared: “Colonel! The ground floor entrance has been breached, zombies are coming!”
The young man shouted: “Put down your guns!”
“Colonel!”
“Let me go—!”
Tang Hao turned back and fired several shots!
The electric shock’s intense pain caused the young man to kneel and then collapse, losing consciousness for several seconds.
His chest suddenly felt heavy, as if crushed by a thousand-pound stone. The young man coughed violently, spitting out blood foam. The next second, he raised his hand, but his wrist was easily caught and pressed to the ground by Tang Hao, his muscle spasms from the electric current unable to tense.
Tang Hao silently cursed, his expression somewhat disheveled – not from the fighting, but from the blood the Omega had spit out.
Even covered in gray dust, it couldn’t hide the young man’s handsome features, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, a straight nose bridge, and a perfectly crisp line from jaw to neck.
The blood rich with pheromones splattered on Tang Hao’s field uniform sleeve, causing an indescribable stimulation to rapidly rise from his instincts.
“The apocalypse will place Omegas in hell. If you leave now, the living will be more terrifying than zombies. Especially someone like you,” Tang Hao heavily wiped his thumb across the young man’s cheek, startlingly white beneath the dust.
