Chapter 269: Tests

"We are a group of survivors. We are coming from Crystal City, and my family is here." Olivia stated as she looked at the young man. At the same time, information about this young man was displayed in front of her.

[Kane Viro

Power level: Level 9 bronze rank

Profession: Grade B Swordsman

Skills: ???]

After looking at the information of the young man in front of them, the group could not help but be a little amazed by this person. At the end of the day, this person was just at the very entrance of the territory, but he possessed level 9 bronze rank power level, and he was a grade B profession holder.

It seemed that the power level of this territory was quite high. Of course Henry and the group knew that since it had already been 2 months ever since the decent of the apocalypse, many people had already reached higher levels. But nevertheless, how could stronger people agree to work as guards at the entrance of a territory?

So, it was kind of amazing that currently, other than the fact that this territory had already built a perimeter wall around themselves, but they also possessed some kind of great combat capabilities.

"Crystal City? Are you kidding me? Crystal City is several hundreds of kilometers from here. Are you trying to tell me that you have actually managed to travel all that distance to come here?" The young man asked with a frown on his face.

Of course there was definitely nobody that was going to believe that Henry and his group had actually managed to come from Crystal City that was located at the farthest end of the continent, and arrived at this place in one piece.

It might be true that they were strong, but just how strong were they that they were capable of traversing all that distance?

Olivia had already expected that they were not going to believe what they were going to say. Nevertheless, it was not as if she had lied. And right now, she was not in the mood to talk much.

Sarah had not woken up yet. They needed five gold rank level 1 mutation crystals to purchase something from the system, before they were able to make her wake up. But along the way, they had not encountered any gold rank apocalyptic creature.

The most that they had encountered was those in the silver rank, several of them that had already reached level 9 of the silver rank. But still, that was not what they were looking for, and they could only do with that currently.

At the end of the day, it was not as if they were actively looking for gold rank apocalyptic creatures. But instead, they were traveling with the intention of reaching Lockwood city to look for Olivia’s and Sarah’s family.

"Are you going to tell the truth, or do you want me to force you to do that?" After realizing that Olivia was not responding, the young man asked a little bit more aggressively.

Although he could not tell the power level of this group in front of him, but that did not mean that he was going to chicken out. At the end of the day, they were in his territory, and for that reason, he possessed the home ground advantage.

"Hey dude, what are we supposed to do in order to enter the territory? We don’t really have much time to explain. After we get out of here, we still have another city that we want to go to." Adam stated impatiently from the side.

The young man looked at the group in front of him with hesitation clear in his eyes. After a while, he made a decision and said, "Wait here for a moment. I’ll make a call."

When he said those words, Henry’s group was a little bit surprised. Ever since the descent of the apocalypse, they knew that the communication systems and other electronics had already been destroyed, making them dysfunctional.

So right now, for this young man to be able to make a call, that implied that there was definitely a channel that they were using to communicate. Henry could not help but be a little bit curious.

For some reason, from the system store, since he himself did not possess any gold rank mutation crystal, the system had not updated anything that was present within the system store. According to the system, the next batch of items was definitely something that he could not afford if he did not possess gold rank mutation crystals.

The young man climbed down from the wall, and disappeared from Henry’s and his group’s vision. After about 5 minutes, he finally came back.

"You are allowed to come in, but you will have to undergo a lot of inspection. Your background is unknown, so, we will have to do some investigation first." Kane stated.

"We’ve got no problem with that." Henry responded for the first time. To him, it really did not matter about what the people of this territory did. As long as they did not do anything that provoked him, he really wouldn’t care much about them.

As long as they found Olivia’s and Sarah’s families, they would decide on what to do later on. But of course, the decision remained in the hands of both Olivia and Sarah. The two of them were going to decide if their families were going to continue staying here, or they were going to go alongside them to Hillstown city.

After Kane said that, the gate was finally opened, and Henry and his group got back into the Jeep. After that, they drove into the territory.

The moment that they went past the gate, they realized that inside the territory, things looked completely different. Unlike outside of the gate where it was completely devastated, inside was completely reinnovated.

But what they were actually looking at was quite a distance away. But not far away from the entrance that they had used to get into the territory, there was a small building.

"You will have to undergo some check up first. After we find that everything about you is clear, you will be allowed to enter into the territory and mingle with other survivors." Kane stated after Henry and his group got out of the vehicle.

"How long is that going to take? It’ll be good if it’ll be faster. We don’t really have much time considering that we have to find information about the families of this teammate and another member of ours." Adam stated.

They had not expected that it was going to take them a very long time to be able to reach this place. So, Adam was getting impatient to be able to get back home. He had been away for over 10 years right now, so, he was looking forward to seeing his family.

It was just that he was afraid of the disappointment that might come considering that everything was supposed to be within his expectations, as in the apocalypse, anything could happen.

As for Henry, although he looked calm, he was nervous as well. But since he was the leader of the group, he was not going to show something like that in front of them. But instead, he just remained silent, but he was also yearning for his family as well.

"You will have to be patient. We don’t have any information about you, so we’ll have to do the investigation from the very start. And other than that, we will have to get some proof that it is true that there is a member of your family inside this territory." Kane responded.

Just like Adam, he himself was also getting impatient. At the end of the day, why was it that Adam was trying to cause trouble for him? He was just doing what he was supposed to do, and this group had decided to give false information. So, it was quite good that they had actually been allowed inside the territory.

This was something that even confused him. Inside Lockwood City, there were several territories that had been built by different people. And there was always a fight for resources and so on.

And it was not as if there was no time that several spies that came from the other territories tried to sneak into this territory, to gain information or to cause trouble inside.

So normally, they were not supposed to trust a group like Henry’s. But nevertheless, he was not the one who had made the decision, considering that there was someone else above him, and after consulting him, that person had said that they were supposed to allow this group inside of the territory.

"Just calm down. Let’s finish the procedures first. We’re not here to cause trouble." Henry stated as he patted Adam’s shoulder.

Adam finally calmed down. He also understood that at this moment, they were not in their own territory. They did not understand the power structure of this place, so, it was better for them to be as lenient as they could be.

At the same time, they didn’t know where Olivia’s and Sarah’s parents were. So, it was only after they had found where they were that they were going to make a decision on what to do next.

Henry and his group underwent the check up, as the other party tried to make sure that they were not bitten by zombies. That was something that was mandatory considering that if even just a single zombie managed to enter into this place, it might end up causing trouble for the entire territory.

After they were done with the other normal procedures, they were asked to sit in a lobby, to wait for someone that was going to make a decision about them.

But even before they could sit down, one of the people that was in charge of the procedures of testing came over. He looked at Henry’s group and said, "There’s something wrong with one of you. We cannot allow her to enter deeper into the territory unless we confirm what the problem is with her."
