Chapter 288 Loan sharks
"Human beings can be foolish because of intelligence, but animals are wise for trusting their instincts," Father Black stated as he approached.
He had a bit of an accent that reminded Lenny of the southern part of the United States in his former world.
Lenny turned to him, railing back his killing Intent, "And which are you? I heard your deal. It seems your night won't be lonely."
Lenny's implication was obvious.
It was one thing for the Dogs to back away the moment they felt his aura, and it was another thing for this old man to know he was formidable by just looking at him.
Didn't that mean that this old man's instincts were more frightening than those of a Ghoul dog?
The old man chuckled as he waved his hand, and all the dogs dispersed.
Obviously, he was their boss.
Scarface immediately stepped forward, feigning a smile on his face.
"Excuse me! Mr Lenn... I mean, Bear, let me introduce you to Father Black," he pointed at the old man, "He is the chief of this town. The Chief of Town, 'Father Black'."
Lenny raised a brow at this.
Scarface was instantly understood and explained.
"We have a unique tradition of always naming the Town after its leader."
"Hmmm." Lenny nodded.
"Father Black, this is Bear. My... erm... Son-in-law."
"Hmmm! Your son-in-law?" Father Black cracked a smile through his cigarette, "I never knew little Nicky was getting married. How time has gone by. What is it now? It's been forty years since anyone wanted to get married in this dump. Since we're all immortal and shit, Basic values don't matter any more."
Father Black cracked once more into another burst of laughter.
This time around, his eyes were obviously expecting Lenny and Scarface to join him, of which Scarface was on cue but not Lenny.
"So, Bear! You know, I knew Nicky long before we came into this dump. Since she was running around in diapers and playing with them dolls. Tell me, boy. Why are you interested? You want to eat her or something?" Father Black frowned.
That was an awkward question that led to an awkward few seconds of silence.
However, Lenny suddenly broke into a laugh, "Yeah, how do you know?" He licked his lips.
This made Father Black frown some more.
"You got me, Father Black. I came here to marry her so that I could EAT that Pussy!"
Father Black paused for a while.
However, he also broke into laughter.
"Sure, I understand. I understand. So what are you bringing? You know I can't let you into my town without some form of payment."
As he talked, the hound by his side looked as if it was preparing for a fight.
his hand under his jacket and brought out a demon leg.
It was big, and it was meaty.
Father Black had not even finished talking when Lenny stretched his hand under his jacket and brought out a demon leg.
It was big, and it was meaty.
The moment it came out, even the hound beside Father Black began to wag its tail.
"Is this enough for a bride's price?"
Instantly, Father Black's eyes brightened, and he immediately grabbed it. "Sure, sure, come in!"
Father Black could not believe what he was seeing.
The moment he touched it, he knew that this meat was of good quality.
No! This was demon meat. It was of great quality.
Even if it was dried and rotting, it would still have been of great quality.
But it was even better—fresh.
Father Black turned around, "Open the FUCKING gates, you assholes. Can't you see my son-in-law is coming through?"
This statement confused the men at the gate, but they still proceeded to open it.
Lenny strolled into the town, and Scarface followed behind him after thanking Father Black.
However, he did not notice that just as they left, Black Father turned to look at Lenny's back one more time.
Now, however, Lenny was feeling a bit more excited about what he saw.
Outside the town was only slightly better than within it.
However, within was firstly less dusty and sandy.
Within the town were broken-down cars, buses, and all other kinds of vehicles.
Some were packed on the road and others in driveways; some were half-fallen, and some were crushed entirely.
They were very dusty, to the point that Lenny could see dried fawn on them.
Most were even rusted at different points.
They were also scooters and even power bikes.
Lenny looked at them as he passed.
They obviously showed their age.
"Those are what we call Vehicles. We will be using one of them to take you to Ella's town."
The way Scarface explained it, it was like he was trying to explain it to a caveman.
Lenny held back from really spanking this guy's head off his shoulders.
"I know what a fucking CAR is!"
"Oh! Okay then."
After a few turns, they arrived at a house.
It was just as Lenny would expect a home in the apocalypse.
Just like most homes, the main door was half broken.
Most of the windows were broken and fixed with either cardboard or sand bags.
The walls had weeds growing at different points, and there were writings with spray paint on the walls, including a terribly drawn giant diagram of a Dick with its tip being an obvious image of Scarface.
Scarface pretended not to see the look on Lenny's face.
"What!? No one makes paint anymore."
Scarface walked up to his door, opened it, and stepped inside.
"Nicky! Nicky!!" He called again and again.
However, no one responded.
"You won't believe who I brought in. It's Bear, your Ex. We are finally friends."
"Nic...!!!" He called once more, but was suddenly drawn by the sign of blood on the ground.
The blood stains formed words.
He stepped back as he read them.
"You owe us, so we will feed on your daughter's ass for a couple of days."
Lenny walked in behind him and saw the message.
He frowned.
"Who did you piss off!?"
"Loan sharks."
