9 Wolf's Den

Jack was already really nervous. He had just walked in into the hideout of a bunch of gangsters. He really was not looking forward to talking to talking to them.

Looking at him with a toothy grin. Ambrosia moved forward revealing a chair behind. "Why don't you come and take a seat.

Gulping he gave a nervous smile. Slowly he moved to the seat. Taking a seat, and looking at Ambrosia. She looked very amiable, but the light in her eyes was scaring him.

Giving him one final look, she looked at the others.

"We need to make a plan now. I don't know about you, but I don't plan on living my life in a jewelry shop."

Everyone put on a grim face. They obviously did not want to stay here. But the killer zombies were a great deterrent.

"Anyone have any idea's."

No one looked like they wanted to talk. The atmosphere was quite tense and stifling. Mustering courage he raised his hand. Everyone turned to look at him.

"Well, speak dude," Ambrosia said.

"Gaining a little bit of confidence he said, "We can definitely escape, I don't think we can escape the zombies. But we can definitely find another place to stay until all the trouble dies down a little."

"Where do you think we can go, you little runt," Nick growled hostility.

"Shut it, Nick," snapped Ambrosia.

"But he's just a little runt, where do you think we can hide. We've already scouted the area and even lost some men at that," Nick said standing to his feet.

"We can listen to what he has to say. Now sit down Nick." Ambrosia said authoritatively.

"There is a big apartment right next to the grocery store on **** street. If we can find a way to reach the grocery store without alerting zombies, we can have a source of food and a place to live. If we can clear the apartment of zombies," he replied after the little spat of Ambrosia and Nick.

"How do you think to kill the zombies. They are stronger and faster regular people. And most likely outnumber us," Ambrosia said, listening attentively.

"I can do it."

"You can do what, at that moment Nick got to his feet. Looking at everyone in the room"

"Ambrosia this runt is clearly playing with us. He's saying that he can fight the zombies. He looks like I could bench press him with one arm."

Jack offended by what Nick said, got up. Walking to Nick, Jack unexpectedly punched him in the gut. Nick was instantly down, like an experienced fighter Nick reacted quickly throwing a punch of his own.

Jack could easily dodge the punch. But to show he was not to be messed with. He caught Nicks fist with his hand, easily stopping the blow.

Everyone's jaw dropped when they witnessed the scene.

"Looks like the pretty boy, not as helpless as we imagined," Ambrosia said her mouth still opened.

Suddenly the someone knocked on the door to the jewelry store. Nick stood up to go get the door. The moment the door was opened in came a giant of a man.

He was at least 6 feet tall, his arms were the size of his legs, and considering he was pretty big, this dude was a monster.

As huge as the man was he was quick on his feet, quickly scanning around the room. His eyes pause a little on Jack, before continuing.

"So anyone wants to tell me who this is", the man said, pointing at Nick. His voice was rough and gravelly it gave off a dangerous vibe.

"John we found this runt making a ruckus outside. Unfortunately for us, he came to the jewelry store and we brought him inside." Ambrosia replied in a cautious tone.

"You should have just let him die, he is a liability," on the contrary boss. he actually stronger than Nick in hand to hand combat.

Jack was quite offended by that statement but he didn't say anything, he did not want to offend this man.

The boss raised his eyebrows, skeptical at the statement. "Okay, let's test him," before he knew it the boss ran straight at him throwing a punch aimed at his jaw. Narrowly dodging the punch, he turned, throwing a punch of his own at the exposed ribs of the boss.

The boss easily evaded the punch, throwing another one at his head. This time he could not dodge it. Crossing his arm to cover his head he took the punch. The moment the punch hit him, he was pushed back by at least 5 meters.

He was quite alarmed at was happening. This man was already so strong how was that possible.

[He has already started on the path to be a cultivator.]

"But how the apocalypse just barely started."

[It's possible that he was a martial artist before the apocalypse began. His power exploded when the SP in the air increased.]

"What stage is he on."

[Looking at the power of his punch, at least Qi accumulation stage 3.]

"Stop stop," knowing that right now he did not stand a chance against this man. He put down his pride and surrendered. His power was not weaker than the Boss, but the Boss had practiced techniques and could allow him to utilize his strength at a higher degree.

"Not bad, not bad, you could probably take that down one of the zombies outside. But except for your strength, you are a weakling."

Even though the Boss said these things, he was quite shocked. This little guy was a little bit stronger than him. If it was not for his technique, he would have lost the fight.

Jack was quite disappointed in himself. He already thought that he would be invincible because of his system. But this just showed him that, there is always a stronger person than you.

"For now you can stay, but if you don't pull your own weight. You will be kicked out of the gang."

Biting his lip, Jack looked resolutely into the boss's eyes. He promised to himself that he would beat him, before nodding his head.

"Well then, the name's Axel and welcome to the gang."
