Apocalypse Space:Second Chance Chapter 12
An All-Purpose Detector—what was this?
The system told me the All-Purpose Detector could ignore all obstacles, detect the best route, and avoid up to 70% of damage.
Wasn't this just advanced GPS?
"System, this All-Purpose Detector isn't time-limited, right?"
Space products had never been reliable. I asked the system worriedly.
After getting the system's confirmation, I quickly opened the All-Purpose Detector.
I found that the densely packed zombies on the street had all turned into red dots.
The convenience store was also full of red dots with only a few yellow dots.
But the storage room beside it was full of yellow dots.
This meant there were lots of supplies there.
Great! I could properly fill my Level 2 space.
I decided to take a detour through the south side of the dorm building, where there were only a few zombies.
After considerable effort, I finally reached the south gate. The yellow dots nearby nearly blinded me.
"Rain Mitchell, where's Quinn? Is she still alive?" Someone suddenly grabbed my arm.
I turned around and looked at the person in front of me, completely shocked.
He was covered in blood, looking utterly disheveled.
Marcus Chen... he hadn't died either!
"Let go of me!" I tried to break free from his grip.
"Tell me, where is Quinn?" He asked again, his eyes full of worry.
"Where she is has nothing to do with me? Don't forget, I'm your girlfriend!"
"What kind of girlfriend? From the beginning, I've only liked her. You were just someone I was stringing along for fun."
I couldn't believe he could say such words.
I'd known Marcus for five years, dated him for two.
When everyone accused me of stealing someone's money, he stood up and defended me without hesitation.
I thought I'd never forget that day.
That once justice-driven boy—how had he become like this?
I thought I'd grown numb, that nothing could touch me anymore.
But meeting him again, I realized the pain had always been there.
"Not going to tell me?" Marcus grabbed my neck.
His eyes were fierce, pupils bloodshot, looking terrifying.
Just then, the All-Purpose Detector sent a danger warning.
Red and green lights flashed alternately.
I felt anxious.
Red represented danger, green meant safety, and red-green...
There was only one possibility—he'd been bitten.
I spotted the scabbed-over bite mark on his arm.
He'd definitely been bitten by a zombie.
"She's in... 503..." I forced out these words with difficulty.
Marcus released his grip. I could finally breathe normally.
"Forgot to tell you—Kyle's there too." Watching his anxious retreating figure, I added one more sentence.
