Packages

The truck-like vehicle swiftly moved through a large street filled with people and 3D advertisements, it received weird looks and ridicule from the passers-by.

It was because, in this era, flying vehicles were the most popular and commonly seen and were mostly used by rich bastards to display their wealth.

This was due to their exorbitant price that would make Achilles' jaw drop to the ground if he ever saw them.

The old model vehicles that could not fly were rather cheap, even a low-average-income citizen could afford one without any problems.

But these types naturally got looked down upon by others and those who bought them received a lot of mockery and scorn, so no one got these to keep their faces.

The woman and the man naturally knew this but they had no way to do anything about it.

The government only provided them with the minimum amount of equipment in order to waste less Nero on a cohort that could potentially drop dead at any moment.

The bulky man looked at the group of people who were unconscious and laying down next to a bunch of monsters' bodies plus soul artifacts with a grimace on his face.

He grew particularly grim when looking at a young man who was in a heavy fever and was breathing roughly and unevenly.

After a while, the bulky man started losing patience and turned to the driver and yelled:

"HEY! How long is it going to take?"

"This is a really old model vehicle, I'm already driving as fast as I can, if you have any problem then go complaint to the higher-ups!"The driver sounded a little irritated and annoyed by the bulky man's words.

The man didn't say anything else and just let out a low grunt.

The woman saw this and tried to calm the tense atmosphere:

"Don't worry, I'm sure we'll reach there in no time.

The man glanced at the woman while snorting his nose and turning away, clearly not in the mood for conversation.

The latter saw this and stopped talking, as long as the ruckus was settled then everything would be fine.

After 10 minutes, the view of the morgue slowly appeared within the driver's vision. He called out to the man and woman who were looking somewhere absentmindedly:

"We're about to arrive."

The two heard this and their faces visibly brightened up, especially the man who looked at the sick young man and said in a happy voice:

"Don't worry kid, we'll get you to heal up in no time."

The young man seemed to have heard the bulky man and a visible sign of relief appeared on his face.

....Unfortunately for him and the young man, what awaited in front of them....was nothing they expected to be.

Achilles looked at the truck-like vehicle which was slowly driving through the morgue's entrance.

His gaze lingered on the truck for a long time until it disappeared from his view.

He squinted his eyes and let out a light chuckle:

"Hehe, let's take a look at our products for today."

With that said, he closed his eyes and re-established the connection with the rat, and controlled it to run down the second floor.

Originally he wanted to wait on the fourth floor for the dead bodies to be delivered there.

But after a bit of careful consideration, he realized he needed the body to not have been dead for a long time.

And the bodies that got delivered to the morgue could possibly be bodies that the doctors had already finished the examination.

Those things wouldn't be fresh!

So he changed his plan and decided to take the bodies of patients that couldn't be cured in time and the personnel of the morgue couldn't dissect just yet due to various issues.

A few minutes later, the rat safely reached the second floor without being detected by surveillance cameras.

Achilles was a very cautious man about almost every matter, and that was why the rat didn't get discovered over the past day.

...Of course, he wasn't careful all the time, otherwise, he wouldn't be in this state.

The zombie rat sprinted to a hidden corner while watching everything transpire before its eyes.

Achilles who was standing outside controlling the rat couldn't help but let a smile appear on his face:

'Finally! My dead body packages have arrived.'

"Get more stretchers in here! We have a lot of patients!" A man wearing glasses with a white coat spoke loudly to a nurse.

The nurse nodded and quickly moved away without saying a word.

After a while, a group of men and women wearing hospital clothing started walking in with a bunch of stretchers.

They worked together to load the injured onto the stretchers and started taking them to the patients' floor.

After around 30 minutes, the morgue's personnel began inspecting one patient at a time, starting with the most injured ones.

2 minutes later, a bulky man and a mid-twenties woman walked into the room and looked around frantically.

Eventually, their gazes stopped at a sick young man whose breathing seemed to get rougher and more uneven in seconds.

The man practically charged straight at the doctor who was standing nearby and shook his shoulder while asking in a loud voice:

"Doctor! How is he? Will he be better?"

"Calm down sir, I will explain it to you shortly."The doctor shook off the man's hands and adjusted his glasses.

Just as he was about to say something, he spotted a small silhouette that appeared in a corner of his eyes.

He unconsciously turned towards the door of the room and saw nothing there, he frowned a little:

'Was it my imagination? Could've sworn there was something flew by.'

Noticing the doctor's weird behavior, the bulky man asked in puzzlement:

"Is there something wrong?"

"No no, nothing's wrong."The doctor shook his head slightly while thinking it might have been him mistaking something.

He cleared his throat with a cough and spoke to the bulky man in a serious tone of voice:

"If I am being completely honest with you, this is the most bizarre case I've ever seen. This young man here clearly just has a light fever and with him being a Divine, he should have fully healed up a long time ago."

He paused a bit to take a breath, then continued:

"Even with my healing ability, he still can't recover from his illness for unknown reasons."

After hearing the doctor's words, the man's eyes widened in disbelief.

He considered the young man who was laying on the bed like his own son!

They had been through a lot of hardships and battles together, so it was inevitable he would feel that way, considering that the bulky man was at least twice the age of the young man.

Just as he was feeling utter despair, the young man next to him suddenly shuddered his body.
