Outbreak Chronicles: Dead Pandemic

Chapter 266 - Hunting the Gangsters Until They Are Dead Part 3
There are many supplies in the warehouse and none of them are going into bad condition and spoilage; in fact, they are fresh and good to be stored for a few months or years if handled properly. However, these goods that were supposed to be a source of food and nutrients by the survivors who settled inside a convenience store ended up in the hands of the gangsters who ran amok inside their base and murdered every last survivor.

”Hahaha! Looks like we hit a big-time loot boys!” The burly guy who is leading them said as he looks around the crates and boxes filled with different supplies.

”Boss! There is also lots of booze here and they are either inside the can or bottle!”

”Ey! That is pretty nice indeed! Gather them up, pile them to the truck, and get this placed burned! Get working now boys!”

”You got it, boss!”

”Keke, soon, we will be holding lots of power and we will not be looked down on by those other bastards who have been dominating all the roads here. They will regret it.”

Little did they know that the real hunter is currently staring at his prey, ready to throw the fangs and devour the enemy.

Most of the men are all focused on the loot inside the store’s supply room while some are focused a lot on the supplies displayed on the racks and cabinets.

Since the boss is currently doing his best on inspecting the contents of the supply room, I went ahead and started sneaking into the guys grabbing the contents of the racks into a box. With my presence blended into the surroundings, I pulled out my Piyavka Machete, sneak behind the guy busy doing his job, grab his mouth and hold it tight, and...

SLICE!

I slit the throat of the victim before stabbing his heart repeatedly. He might be trying to scream but with my hands covered in gloves and covering his mouth, his screams are all muffled. He draws his last breath before he slumps and slowly turned cold.

After doing the deed, I put his body back down and closed his eyes before going to my next target. I didn’t bother to cover him since I am doing this in quick succession. Who will notice the body if no one will notice it?

The next one is a girl who is not a good person either. And yes, even if you are a girl but you did something, I am not so merciful either. I do my judgment equally and no one is safe, whatever gender you have.

Just like the first guy, she is too preoccupied with grabbing the supplies with a grin on her face. If she is doing it while knowing they killed innocent people who are not even fighting back to acquire these supplies, then she is already rotten to the core, there is no need for me to spare the effort of giving her a second chance.

Quickly grabbing her mouth, she struggled at first but before she can do something to counter my grab, I quickly performed my killing action and slit her throat in one deep cut before stabbing her chest multiple times. Just like the man earlier, she slowly loses her life and blood seeps out of her body as her life fleets away.

Two down, three more guys left.

The three guys didn’t notice anything yet but that is good. As I was sneaking to the next target, I passed by the supply room’s door. The lock is currently inside but that doesn’t mean I can’t lock them inside. Pulling out my trusty lockpick, I pick the keyhole a little bit and removed some of its components to keep the door locked while the lock function loses its function to disable the lock.

Now that the deed is done, time to continue.

...

After the sneaking kills, I managed to get rid of them all. The last one managed to notice the other missing guys after he noticed that it became silent. However, just like the rest, before he can even find out what happened to them, I already ended his suffering and like the others, he slumped down to the ground, bathing in his blood.

Since I already finished the things, I check the door of the supply room and they are still not going out. They are still laughing and still busy packing things.

Seeing that it will take a little bit of time before they will notice things is getting a little bad, I decided to hasten it.

...

On the other hand, the leader of the squad slowly noticed that the supply room is getting hot for some reason. Although the place has an air conditioner to keep the products fresh, it seems that some sort of heat is preventing the cold air from the machine.

”Is it just me or does the air is getting hotter and hotter as times went by?”

”Now that you mention it, boss, it seems like it. Do you think the air conditioner is broken? Maybe it is malfunctioning.”

”Diaz, check the A/C if it is working. If not, give it a few slaps and it will return to normal,” he ordered.

”Yes, boss!” the enthusiastic gangster said.

He tried to check the air conditioner but it is working fine and he can still feel the cold air flowing out from the machine.

”Boss! It is functioning properly. Nothing wrong here!”

The boss was left confused until he heard the crackling sound outside. It is not just some sort of sound but it sounded like some things are burning? He can also smell the burnt plastic and other things that when burned, will produce a stinky package of air and bad smell.

”Open the door! Confirm what is happening!”

Diaz, who is the nearest to the place turns the doorknob only to notice that the doorknob is no longer functioning properly as intended.

”Huh? What the f*ck? The door is stuck and can’t be opened!”

”Bullshit man, you know we can easily open it by turning the doorknob and pull the door open from the doorway... huh...?” the guy who scolded Diaz also noticed the anomaly.

”F*ck! It was stuck! What is going on?!”

The boss is now impatient and he decided to open the door himself. However, it was indeed true that he can’t open it as they say so.

He tried doing some things to take the door open. However, nothing responded. The heat is now too hot for anyone to endure and this closed room also amplified the heat even further.

”F*cking bastards! Open the door! I will beat you all up if you try to run away from us!”

The boss already screamed but nothing is happening. The door remained lock. 

”Boss! Let’s break the entrance and get outside! We don’t need to care about the rules as they are not going to do anything! We are already in an apocalyptic world!”

Hearing that, the boss decided to destroy the door. But the moment he tried to kick it open, a fire started to appear over the door and engulfs the entire door in just a few seconds.

”There is a fire! We need water and wet clothes to keep the flames from spreading even further!”

The leader continues his assault to the door and whatever he does, things are not so good. The moment the door was taken down, the scene outside made them wanted to run away from everything.

”There is a fire!”

The fire has already been revealed and there is no exit. They looked around but noticed that there is no other way out as the whole place slowly descended to the flames alongside them.

Screams and cries were echoing the room but due to the way, the flames have devoured the whole place, and a safe route out of the building is no longer possible.

The guy started screaming like a mad man as the frustration slowly feeds them. He tried crossing but this was not just something you can pass on. The boss hesitated but he didn’t get any sort of good thing that can aid them out.

The ceiling slowly started falling apart too and before I knew it, the entire convenience store is already covered in fire.

As for the reason, I am staying here? It is to eliminate the enemy who exposes the danger of this place out.

I heard their screams, but that has nothing to do so. What about the loot? I also burned them all. I may be disrespecting everyone in this world after raiding the place though I left things. If it means a good way to deal with all of the gangsters inside the supply room, they needed to die alongside the supplies.
