In the midst of the turmoil, even Helen came to find Waldo to purchase weapons again.
"Waldo, Sheriff killed the first mutated zombie creature. You must have heard about it, right?" Helen said.
Waldo quickly replied, "Yeah, I know. The chat channel has been buzzing. How could I not know?"
Helen continued sending a string of messages.
"Today we encountered a horde of zombies, and Russ just abandoned me and ran away. Luckily, you sold me a lot of combat supplies before. Otherwise, today would have been the end for me."
Waldo squinted his eyes slightly.
"It's really annoying that he managed to survive unscathed until now. But his selfish and self-centered nature hasn't changed, which is not surprising at all. Why keep such a person around? Just use the weapons I gave you to get rid of him!"
Helen sighed with helplessness.
"Russ has always been cautious, and I'm not good at fighting. It might not be that easy. However, he has been wanting to join some larger teams recently, so it's a good opportunity for us to part ways."
Waldo narrowed his eyes.
"Several days have passed, and my strength has improved significantly. It's time to deal with him."
"Let me know when Russ finds a new group, and I'll give him a big surprise."
Soon, Waldo received a reply.
"It should be in the next few days. He has been persuading me to join other teams lately, especially after seeing Sheriff kill the mutated creature at the police station today. He can't hide his desire."
Waldo pondered for a moment.
The most important thing now is to obtain the antiviral serum. Let's wait a few days; there shouldn't be any major changes.
By the way, do you need any combat supplies? You must have used them up after barely escaping from the horde of zombies today, right?
Helen replied with an affirmative expression.
"I do want to buy some from you. Just get me some Molotov cocktails, crossbow arrows, and a critical hit katana."
Waldo opened the trading window and placed the items.
After completing the transaction, Waldo ended the conversation with Helen and returned to the villa area.
After testing the power of the critical hit katana and hanging it on the trading platform, he unknowingly spent the morning outdoors.
Upon returning to the shelter, as soon as Waldo entered the door, he saw Alanna sitting on the living room sofa, watching TV.
The TV was connected to a hard drive, playing programs about the animal world and the like.
Waldo was somewhat surprised.
After all, the TV couldn't be turned on before.
Unexpectedly, Alanna had managed to fix it.
Watching TV in such an environment was truly comfortable, and it occasionally brought back some nostalgic feelings.
"How did you turn on the TV? I tried for a long time but couldn't make it work."
Alanna hugged Waldo's arm and smiled, "It was just a faulty circuit board, not a big problem. I tried to fix it, and now it works."
"Impressive!" Waldo gave her a thumbs up. "But how did you learn to repair a TV? Repairing electrical appliances is considered a specialized skill that not everyone can master."
Alanna shrugged indifferently and said, "I've seen others fix it a few times, so I learned a bit. This time, I got lucky. If the problem was more complicated, I wouldn't be able to do it."
Afterward, the two of them cuddled on the sofa, watching TV and eating fries.
In that moment, it felt like the experiences of these days were just a dream.
But right at that moment, they heard banging sounds coming from upstairs.
"Hey! Is anyone there? I'm hungry!" Mia shouted.
Almost forgot about her.
Waldo glanced upstairs and asked, "Is she behaving herself? Did she cause any trouble?"
"She did try to escape once," Alanna shook her head, not taking it too seriously. "But I kept an eye on her, and she didn't succeed."
"Well, well, she's not very well-behaved," Waldo scoffed. "Let's leave her hungry for a while longer so that she remembers her lesson."
After that, the two of them continued watching TV as if they hadn't heard Mia's shouts.
Only when Mia got tired of yelling did they finally send her a bottle of water and a pack of instant noodles.
