Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

Chapter 299



Chapter 299: 299

I immediately received several curses coming from my headpiece and Roque almost had a panic attack. What happened before was still fresh in their minds and I imagined that they were now having flashbacks though with different versions. I never did the same maneuver as I promised but there were a lot of times when I pretended to do it. Screams or curses would assault me at first and I only stopped when I heard of several slides chambering a round.


We flew over the massacre that we did on the slums and it’s just a different scene compared to earlier.

It took us a bit of time flying but I could already see my place. It’s already the afternoon and it is nearing sundown. Some of the vehicles the president brought over to Manila broke off and headed straight to Davao. The vehicles I received on the other hand were two cargo helicopters, two S-76s, and one SuperCobra. Well, don’t forget the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T inside a shipping container.

We landed at the hospital where our DDR Camp is located and there’s already a crowd forming beneath us.

*bzzt*

“Is that you kid?”

*bzzt*

*bzzt*

“What? New phone, who dis?”

*bzzt*

*bzzt*

“You f.u.c.k.i.n.g- I was about to welcome you here- JUST F.U.C.K.I.N.G GO BACK YOU LITTLE SHIT!!!”

*bzzt*

*bzzt*

“Hahaha! Nice to be back old man, wait till you see what I have in the shipping container. We’ll see how loyal you are to your SUV, Betty.”


*bzzt*

*bzzt*

“Hmph! I’ll be the f.u.c.k.i.n.g judge of that!”

*bzzt*

We made our way down and some of the people from my compound are present.

Oscar was at the front with the rest of our trainees and a few soldiers while Allan, Bing, and Russel were with the kids wearing helmets, knee pads, and elbow pads. They seem to be in a formation and they have their hands behind their backs. Rin was with Mikhail, Alexei, and Vera and they made a small salute to us when they saw us walking down. Lois is also there with Olivia, Matthew and Marisha with a few of my family members. Chris and Charlotte were waving their hands when they saw me and I waved back. They’re all waiting for me to walk up to them but one figure came rushing towards me.

“Woof! Woof! Woof!” Zeus excitedly rushed towards my direction. He suddenly jumped towards me though I made sure to catch him.

“Hey Zeus, long time no see, eh?” I was receiving his kisses and his tail was just wagging to every direction.

“Woof!” Zeus barked once more and he wouldn’t let me put him down since he’d whine if I do. I finally set him down when he calmed for a bit and we were warmly welcomed by everybody.

“Hah! You son of a bitch. I hope I receive the same welcome when we get back tomorrow.” Rod said from behind me.

“We’re leaving tomorrow? I thought we’re just gonna eat dinner here?” Micah said.

“Bah! They could wait a bit more. We’ll just leave in the early morning and I’ll call in a few minutes later so they wouldn’t worry.” Rod waved his hands.

“I see~ We still have a bit of time~ I really want a hot shower right about now~” Micah said.

“Oh god, me too. If I could sleep in the tub I would.” Kaley added.


“Guess I’ll join too! Let’s bring Rin along!” Tatiana added.

“Then it’s settled. I still have a few things to talk about Oscar and the rest.” Rod mentioned.

“You old dudes just talking or drinking? Hmm?” Micah chuckled.

“Bah! You know it’s a conversation starter.” Rod replied.

We finally made our way to my people then hugs and fistbumps were exchanged. Zeus is still circling around me whenever I walk and the kids formed a small circle around me.

“Yo, what’s up!” Kenny greeted me.

“Welcome back!” Aya added.

“Welcome back~”

[Welcome back…] Peter signed.

“Are we gonna do the training tomorrow?”

“Bing is really slow!”

“He sucks!”

“Oi! Easy, I’m just letting you win…”

“No, you’re not!”


“I am!”

“HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!”

It was a lively afternoon and we were warmly welcomed by everyone. I already noticed a few upgrades in the fences and some of the facilities when I quickly looked around.

We were about to head back but I never forgot about my Charger inside the shipping container. The moment it was rolled outside and came into view, Oscar’s jaw dropped to the ground. He was so jealous of my Charger and he started to have a mental breakdown when I told him I would trade it for his SUV.

I started to drive my Charger back home and Oscar almost wrestled the keys off of me. The first thing I saw when we left the hospital is that the gate built before that is right next to it is completely solid. There’s two platforms on each side that could see what’s on the other side and there’s guards stationed with rifles to keep the threats outside low.

There’s already a spread of food for us when we got back home and a small welcoming party was held.

We were immediately handed plates and Tatiana was the first in line to take some food. Surprisingly, Jude didn’t go straight to my old house and he’s already holding a can of juice while casually talking with Allan and Jenny. Roque was present and he looked for my aunt and my uncle to sincerely apologize for what he’d done the first time he was here. They forgave him but he was dragged around to drink heavy liquor by my uncles and my workers.

The kids are now playing by the pool and Bing and Russel are keeping strict watch with a few others in case an accident occurs. The funny thing I’m seeing now is that Lois is chatting with Olivia but Matthew is in the middle of them holding his shotgun. I just prayed to the nine divines for their blessing to help Lois in his predicament.

Kaley went with Micah upstairs and decided to take a hot shower first since the cold water from the hospital we were in isn’t enough for them. Tatiana and Rin were carrying a tray filled to the brim with food as they followed the two when they headed upstairs.

I was holding a glass with Whiskey and I was with the old dudes trading war stories. I heard a small clang from Lois’ direction and I found Matthew rubbing his head when he approached us.

“So kid, ARMSCOR, huh?” Oscar refilled Johnny’s glass.

“It’s only obvious. That place could manufacture valuable products we could trade for fuel when my reserves run out.” Rod answered for me.

“We just need to be really careful in taking that place since the machinery to make weapons and ammo might get damaged and our future bullet farm would just be a pipe dream.” I said.

“We need to assume the worst case scenario as always in that type of operation. I don’t want to always be the negative one but that’s just how I see things.” Johnny said.


“Isn’t that very far from here? Besides, taking over another city? Aren’t we not done yet with this place?” Matthew asked.

“Yes, it’s really far but what we could achieve from that could solve our bullet problem in the future. If we even manage to get a hold of existing workers, we would be able to produce firearms, not just ammo. Also, we’re not taking over that city. We’re just taking over a few buildings, maybe build an outpost around that company and have a few people live in that place. We just need to plan it perfectly, that’s all.” I replied.

“Hah! What do you mean by ‘that’s all’, huh? You’re making it sound easy, kid. Anyway, you should’ve at least brought that Iskoh fellow here and just bring him back tomorrow so we would had the chance to talk. I know we could call him but up close like this with a drink in hand is where guys like us have the most honest conversations.” Oscar said.

We continued on talking for an ample amount of time while sipping our drinks. I wanted to know the things that happened here when I was away but they told me to rest for now. I obliged then I saw Kaley coming down the stairs wearing one of my hoodies. It’s a few sizes larger but it’s comfortable and cozy to wear especially at night when a cold breeze is blowing. Despite that, she’s still carrying her Maxim 9 with a leg holster. She approached us and Matthew waved his lit cigar to greet her.

“Hey.” Matthew said.

“Hey yourself. Isn’t that a cigar?” Kaley has already crossed her arms.

“Um, ah- this is just a small thing since we’re celeb-” then Kaley cut him off.

“Mom~ dad has a-” Kaley raised her voice.

Matthew quickly sprang up with his glass while dragging the rest of his old buddies to Oscar’s house. Kaley was just shaking her head when they quickly left and now it’s just the two of us. She saw me looking at my hoodie but she just raised one of her eyebrows while smiling.

“What?” she asked, smirking.

“Mine.” I said while looking at her.

“I know it’s yours! I’m just wearing it since it’s really cozy~” she replied as she pulled on the strings to tighten the hood.

“I’m not talking about the hoodie.” I said, smiling.

She just raised her eyebrow while biting the side of her lower lip then she held my hand and took me upstairs.
