Olier''s attention was particrly drawn to the woman dressed in cosy.
She seemed quite yful, and it would be quite enjoyable to spend a night with her in that outfit.
And the other woman was also impressive!
She was more beautiful than a female celebrity! Her legs were long and slender.
Before Elijah and Daisy left, Daisy had given Abigail a pair of colored contact lenses, so at first nce, it wasn''t immediately apparent that she was a zombie.
Moreover, Abigail was wearing a NieR: Automata protagonist cosy costume, which was incredibly eye-catching.
Oliver''s opinion suddenly changed.
"You three... if you want to stay, it''s not impossible, but you have to listen to me."
Oliver, with his big belly and tilting head, continued in a leadership tone, "You came in from outside, so you must know the situation. Supplies are precious here. So, you can''t just freeload here; you have to prove your worth. In short, we don''t keep idle people here."
Daisy looked at this guy as if he were an idiot.
Everyone knew it was the apocalypse; who cared if he was a manager or not?
Whoever had the stronger fist was the boss.
Daisy wanted to give this guy a kick and wake him up. But Elijah, sensing her intentions, pulled her back.
Daisy didn''t understand and looked at Elijah.
Elijah muttered to her quietly, "Let''s assess the situation first." Daisy settled down after that.
Seeing the exchange of nces between the two, Oliver muttered a few words to himself but didn''t voice any objections.
Thinking they had agreed to his new rules, he couldn''t help but show a satisfied smile.
"Now that you two don''t object, you''re one of us. Follow the arrangements, and I guarantee you''ll have good food and clothing, worry-free!"
Oliver introduced himself, "I''m Oliver, the purchasing manager here."
He then pointed to the burly man beside him.
"This is Patrick, our security guard. He''s remarkable. He used to be the boxing champion in our district and is very skilled at fighting zombies. He''s the one who led the cleanup of the nearby zombies."
Oliver emphasized Patrick''s introduction, implying that they should obey or face consequences.
"This is Natalie, the supermarket''s stocker."
Oliver pointed to the middle-aged woman beside Patrick, briefly introducing her before turning to the other girl.
"And this one is Lily, our intern. Although she hasn''t graduated yet, she''s very capable!"
When Oliver introduced Lily, he couldn''t help but show a hint of lecherousness.
Her chest size contrasted sharply with her petite figure, which was quite impactful.
Oliver had been eyeing her for a while, subtly suggesting that he could help her quickly be a regr employee and even quickly rise to management.
Unfortunately, this girl was oblivious to his hints. Despite his clear implications, she just didn''t seem to understand.
After the virus outbreak and a week of waiting for rescue that never came, Oliver gradually realized that the end of the world might have arrived.
So, he started to scheme again.
He had been giving the three of them tasks under his leadership.
Initially, he assigned Lily to do some heavy lifting and hinted that if sheplied with him, he could make her life easier.
But unexpectedly, this girl had quite a bit of strength and effortlessly lifted heavy objects. She also ignored his hints.
Since yesterday, he had changed tactics, assigning her to work with Patrick to clear the warehouse path to the supermarket and mall, a dangerous job.
He even deliberately hindered her progress, implying his intentions more directly this time.
Latest updates from m _vlempyr.
However, she continued to y dumb.
If it weren''t for Elijah and the others suddenly appearing, he would have considered using force today!
But their appearance only reinforced his determination.
The apocalypse has been going on for eleven days now!
For the survivors out there, food and water should be the top priorities.
If they have to trade with their bodies... I''m sure some would agree.
Especially since he has more than just food and water! He has an entire mall filled with supplies.
Oliver decided to take it easy on Lily for now; after all, she''s one of us and tends to listen to orders, doing whatever she''s told.
He nned to start with these two new women, using his power and resources to enjoy himself.
As for the other man... If he behaves, having an extra pair of hands wouldn''t hurt.
To take control of the entire mall, they still need to clear out the numerous zombies inside.
But if he dares to resist... Well, then Patrick will take care of him!
Once Elijah and the others introduced themselves, Oliver instructed Lily, "Lily, you take these three to a ce to rest, following the rules!"
"Sure thing, manager!" Lily nodded and gestured for Elijah and the others to follow. Daisy and Elijah exchanged a nce and followed along.
Once they were out of earshot, Oliver turned to Natalie, "You, go back now and prepare a day''s worth of food and water for them. Once Lily settles them in, have her deliver it. And remember, don''t overdo it."
"Got it! Understood!" Natalie nodded anxiously and carefully retreated.
With everyone gone, only Oliver and Patrick remained in front of the warehouse doors.
Oliver pulled out a pack of cigarettes and offered one to Patrick, who skillfully epted and let Oliver light it for him.
"Patrick, I remember I arranged this job for you originally, right?"
"Yes, Oliver! I''ve always remembered your kindness!" Patrick took a deep drag, exhaling slowly, smiling in agreement.
"You''ve done well over these years, I''ve been watching. It wasn''t in vain that I arranged this for you. I was actually thinking of rmending you for the position of security team leader, but then this damn disaster happened!"
"Thank you very much!"
"That''s in the past now, let''s talk about the present." Oliver blew a smoke ring.
"You''ve seen how chaotic it is outside now, with zombies everywhere. No cell signal, water, or electricity. I reckon the whole world is in chaos; otherwise, it wouldn''t havested this long without any signs of rescue. Luckily, we have plenty of supplies here. With what we have, we could survive for four or five years, no problem for a year or two at least.
But we need rules; we can''t just help anyone whoes seeking aid. Otherwise, even with all these supplies, it won''t be enough to feed everyone, right?"
Oliver stared at Patrick, who, being savvy, understood the unspoken implication and nodded in agreement, smiling.
"That''s right, Oliver. Whatever ideas you have, count me in. I''ll support you all the way!"
"You''re a smart guy, my friend. As long as you stick with me, you won''t be shortchanged. Here''s what I''m thinking: when more peoplee, the men will work asborers, and as for the women... well, we''ll have some fun! What do you think?"
Oliver finished with a sleazy smirk spreading across his pudgy face.
"That''s a brilliant idea!" Patrick''s face mirrored the sleazy grin as he nodded in approval.
