Chapter 65: Callie’s Anger
As the God of War Peter walked towards the Federal building, Callie had followed the old butler to a hidden residence. She had never heard her grandfather mention this place.
There was only a very ordinary room behind the old door. Callie saw the butler open the door for her, revealing the furnishings in the room.
Other than a simple desk and chair, there was also a cabinet filled with books. Callie entered the room and looked around, but saw no sign of her grandfather. She looked at the old butler with a puzzled expression.
After the old butler entered the room, he immediately closed the door and hid behind the window. He seemed to be observing something through the window.
“John! Where’s my grandfather? There’s no sign of any human activity here!”
The old butler John didn’t answer Miss Callie’s question. Instead, he continued to observe the scene outside the window for a while before raising his hand to indicate that Callie should walk to the window.
Puzzled, Callie walked to the old butler’s side and looked out the window in the direction that the old butler was pointing. At the corner, a slightly handsome face was revealed.
Obviously, this man had followed them here all the way. Callie turned to look at the butler.
“John, do you know who he is? Why is he following us?”
The old butler took out an energy gun from somewhere and handed it to Callie.
“Miss Callie, if anything happens, this gun will help you.”
Then, the old butler looked out of the window and continued, “Miss Callie, I think you know the person who followed us. He often comes and goes in the Federal building.”
Callie looked out the window again and stared intently at the face. In the end, Callie shook her head. She had never seen that person before, but in the next moment, Callie realized something. Shock filled her eyes as she looked at the old butler beside her.
The old butler knew that Callie was smart and didn’t need him to tell her the answer.
“Oh my god! You said that the person following us often enters the Federal Building. This person must be related to General David!”
General David had placed her under house arrest when the beasts attacked the base city. Then, he had used various reasons to stop her from searching for Peter. Now, he had sent people to tail her.
Callie wasn’t sure why General David had sent someone to tail her.
However, as long as she could prove that the person following her was related to General David, that was enough.
General David had repeatedly challenged Callie’s limits.
At that moment, Callie’s anger was ignited.
Callie held the gun the old butler had given her. Then, she raised her arm and aimed the barrel at the man outside the window.
“Miss Callie, don’t do this. Look, that person seems to be in contact with someone.”
Callie saw through the window that the man was also using his smart device.
The man ended the call quickly and left without staying.
At this moment, the old butler beside Callie had already walked away from the window. Soon, the sound of the floorboards being turned sounded behind her.
“Miss Callie, please come in with me. The President is below.”
Callie turned around and saw that the floor in front of her had been flipped open. A tunnel appeared in her field of vision.
“John, this is…” She realized that the old butler had entered the entrance of the dungeon first. Her doubts vanished as she followed the old butler into the dungeon.
When Callie entered the dungeon, Peter was only a few hundred meters away from the square. He didn’t know that at this moment, a large number of people were gathered in the square, waiting for the God of War Peter to appear.
Peter walked through the deserted streets. Many of the street lights on either side were damaged, and only weak lights could be seen from the dilapidated houses on either side of the street.
Peter walked all the way. After turning a corner ahead, he would reach the central square of the base city.
The buildings on both sides of the streets had been damaged to varying degrees by the beasts. Many of the top floors of the houses had been overturned by the powerful birds in the sky, and the residents inside had yet to repair them. Thus, they could only stay in houses that were exposed to the wind.
Peter was about to reach the corner of the street. The wounds on his body had completely healed, leaving only ghastly scars.
Meanwhile, a large number of people were gathered in the square of the base city. They looked at the streets that led to the square at the same time.
Previously, the people had paid attention to the images on the screen in the square. Thus, they knew that the God of War Peter had entered the base city.
Meanwhile, pairs of anxious eyes were focused on the other side of the street where the corner was. If the God of War Peter was going to the Federal Building, he had to pass through the central square.
The people had gathered here because they wanted to see the God of War Peter, who had returned safely.
It was for no other reason than the fact that the God of War Peter had saved the entire population of the base city.
It was the God of War Peter who relied on himself to kill the leader of the beasts and saved the base city that had been besieged by the beasts. Otherwise, the base city would have been broken through by the beasts.
Once the base city was invaded, the people gathered in the square would become the target for the beasts to vent their anger. If they were lucky, they might be killed by the beasts. However, if they were unlucky, they would be tortured to death by the intelligent mutated creatures among the beasts.
Then, the ancient bell tower in the square sounded.
Dong dong dong!
As the bell sounded above the square, the God of War Peter appeared on the streets.
The people who had been watching the streets saw the figure of the God of War Peter.
The originally noisy crowd instantly fell silent.
As the God of War Peter kept approaching the Central Square, those with good vision in the crowd saw the ferocious scars on the God of War Peter.
Many women held their cheeks with both hands as their bodies trembled uncontrollably.
A seven or eight-year-old boy stood beside one of the women. He was holding a humanoid statue made of soil. Upon closer look, the statue looked somewhat similar to the God of War Peter.
Meanwhile, a little girl, who was riding on her father’s neck, was the closest to the God of War Peter. She had large, beautiful eyes that looked at the hero in her heart.
“God of War Peter, welcome home.”
After the little girl spoke this first sentence in a childish voice, it triggered a resonance among the people.
Soon after, the shouts of the people could be heard from the square.
“God of War Peter! Welcome home!”
“God of War Peter! Welcome home!”
“God of War Peter! Welcome home!”
