The Barnes Siblings

Upon hearing this, Jill didn't dare to delay and quickly pressed her thumb onto a sensor switch next to the window.

[Beep, fingerprint verification successful!]

As this intelligent voice prompt ended, a liquid crystal display screen popped out from the inner side of the window of the vehicle body!

[Please enter the number of crystal core collectors you need to use!]

Jill glanced at the number of corpses outside, then pressed the number 3 on the display screen.

Immediately, a dark door about 20 centimeters wide and long opened on the corresponding side of the window on the vehicle body outside.

Then, three silver-white, fist-sized, metallic mini robots flew out.

They looked like spiders but had mini drone propellers.

Once they came out, they didn't do anything else.

They flew directly into the pile of monsters and started scanning.

When they detected the presence of crystal cores, they would open a small hole on their bodies and extend a drill bit from inside, precisely drilling into the heads of the monsters.

Once the hole was drilled open.

They would use a pair of tweezers-like tools to clip the crystal cores from the monsters' heads and put them into the robot's built-in recycling bin!!

Seeing the robots at work, Elmo smiled satisfactorily.

Seeing the petite and lovely appearance of Jill beside him, he smiled even more happily.

Yes, his name was Elmo.

Not only was he the owner of this black minibus.

But he was also a siscon.....

Elmo, 23 years old this year, just graduated from university for a year.

With his paranoid personality disorder, he worked as a struggling office worker in Dragon's Roost.

Because he had just graduated from university and had little work experience.

Jobs were easy to find but hard to do.

Either the salary was too low, or he was criticized for lacking experience.

So after a year of struggling in society, he still achieved nothing.

His sister Jill, 18 years old this year, was in her senior year at Dragon's Roost.

Although she was not tall, her petite and lovely face made her popular among boys.

If she wore a princess dress and paired it with her twin ponytails, she would be a cute loli!

As for why Elmo became a siscon?

Actually, there was no special reason.

Just because they were half-siblings on the surface.When Elmo was three years old, his parents divorced.

Elmo grew up with his mother since childhood.

Three years ago, his father's business failed, and his second wife ran away with the money from their accounts.

All that was left for Elmo's father was Jill, his daughter.

Feeling life was meaningless, his father found an excuse before he passed away to send Jill to Elmo's family.

He secretly handed over the emergency fund he had saved to Elmo's mother to help take care of Jill.

Who could refuse a lively and lovely fifteen-year-old girl?

Elmo's mother couldn't refuse because of her sense of responsibility.

Elmo himself couldn't refuse because of the girl's lovely appearance.

And so, the two siblings lived together with their mother.

Although Elmo was in university at the time, they spent little time together.

But during this brief time together, Elmo clearly developed feelings for his sister.

But their lives were supposed to be very ordinary.

At most, his sister could grow up, marry a wealthy man who adored her because of her cute appearance, and then live out her life as a housewife.

But everything changed about two weeks ago.

That morning, the apocalypse arrived.

Jill was in school, while Elmo was unemployed, staying in their rented house.

While others were lamenting the thick fog and fearing the monsters.

Elmo's roof was pierced by a fist-sized meteorite.

The meteorite landed in their living room.

It even smashed a hole in the living room floor.

Fortunately, Elmo's rental was on the ground floor, so it didn't hit someone else's house.

Otherwise, he would have been out of luck.

As for what this meteorite was?

Apart from containing special energy, it was also an amazing super artificial intelligence.

After picking it up, this artificial intelligence showed him some information.

The information displayed that this was a core energy stone from an alien high-tech warship.

The super artificial intelligence was implanted into this energy stone through space technology.

Due to a massive interstellar war, when it was transported to Earth, it didn't have enough energy.

To make it work, it needed to replenish its energy!The energy could be replaced with the crystal cores of the monsters in this world.

So, it recognized Elmo as its master.

Elmo helped it find crystal cores, and it helped Elmo control a minibus.

With its power, they completely transformed the minibus into a specialized vehicle for use in the apocalypse.

Elmo drove this apocalypse vehicle to rescue his sister from high school.

The two of them fled all the way to this point.

"Oh, by the way, brother, are we really not going to save anyone else?" Jill asked quietly as she watched the three robots still scanning the monster corpses.

"No, we're not!" Elmo replied. "We want to survive. This vehicle is crucial. What if others have malicious intentions and try to steal our vehicle?"

"So, it's better not to save anyone until I become stronger..."

"Yeah, that's right!"

Jill nodded thoughtfully. "But, brother, didn't you say we could break through by fighting? How do you feel now?"

"I still feel like something's missing!"

The vehicle needs an upgrade, and so do the people.

They parked the vehicle here to allow Elmo to break through.

"I see. No problem, I'm pretty strong now. I can protect you!" Jill reassured him.

"Heh, I know you're strong. But still, be careful!" Elmo warned. "Let's figure out our next move."

"I feel like we need to change our route!"

"Change our route? Why?"

"The road ahead is completely blocked, and we can't get through. Plus, we can't be as reckless as before."

Elmo analyzed calmly. "If it weren't for someone clearing the monsters on this stretch of road before, with the remaining energy of this vehicle, it would be difficult for us to escape from the monsters chasing us!"

"Okay, I'll follow your lead!"

"Let's go!"

Buzzing!

As Elmo finished speaking, the three spider-like mini robots flew back into the dark door of the black minibus.

Elmo got into the vehicle, closed the door, and then changed direction.

Then, he drove towards the other side street of Rhine Hotel.Sometimes, fate works in mysterious ways.

Two kilometers ahead and to the right of Elmo, there is a street called White Cloud Street.

In the middle of White Cloud Street, there is a police station.

This is also one of the few official armed forces of Dragon's Roost.

But now... a young man's screams echoed from one of the interrogation rooms.

"Damn it, you bastards! Even if I turn into a zombie, I won't let you off!"

The man's body was bruised all over, his hands chained to the chair, and his swollen face filled with despair.

It's no wonder he's so agitated.

Because he was supposed to marry his girlfriend.

They came out in the morning to book a hotel for their wedding banquet, but they didn't expect the apocalypse to break out suddenly.

They hid and fled everywhere, finally making their way here, hoping to seek refuge with the people's police.

Who knew that most of the police here had died protecting the people.

Only a group of thugs remained to occupy this place.

The man was just a programmer.

His fiancée was a receptionist at the hotel!

They had been through ups and downs, finally coming together.

But who would have thought they would encounter something like this?

He could never forget the scene where his fiancée was humiliated by these dozen or so thugs.

A good girl tortured to the point of being inhuman.

Only finding release in death after being tortured alive.

The depravity of humanity was laid bare at this moment.

If it takes a certain process for ordinary people to turn evil.

For these thugs, it's like returning to heaven.

They were born devils, devoid of humanity.

There are sixteen people here now, almost all of them are serious criminals.

Fraud, robbery, bullying women, even murder!

In short, they are the scum of society who do all sorts of evil.

The one with the shortest sentence has at least twenty years.

After the apocalypse, some of them awakened special abilities and then attacked the police here.

Occupying this place.

And using the disguise of police uniforms to lure some ignorant survivors into their trap.
