49 Chapter 49 -The epilogue of the first volume

After that, we found an uncle who did not say a word against it and only explained that they had managed to find out what was jamming the signal and where it was located. There was a friend of Roman's in the camp who understood technology and worked in the field of specialized radio intelligence in the past, so he assumed that it was the work of the military. They used an electronic warfare system and started jamming the signals... but it's not clear why they did it. He was also able to roughly indicate the place where we need, this is the outskirts of Tokyo.

Since we had to hurry, we no longer waited for anything and all got into the armored car. We had enough fuel for the way there and back, and even so there should still be enough left. Moreover, with my help, we will not even have to stop, since I will be able to deal with all the obstacles on the road.

— "I see you've dressed up." — I said, examining Saeko's clothes.

— "Yes. "— the girl nodded. —"I want to be your sword, so I have to be strong. "— she looked at me and her sister with a strange look, who snorted at this and pressed herself closer to my shoulder.

— "Oh, Saeko, you again ..." — I rolled my eyes. — "You are for me first of all a girl." — I said, and Busujima smiled... but also bloodlust flashed in her eyes as soon as she noticed the infected outside.

— "Brother, did you not understand what kind of ability I have? — Alicia asked.

— "Now we can check, you're just sitting by the window. Look at the infected outside and try to make them... stop. "— the girl nodded and looked at one of the infected, who was wandering a hundred meters from our car ahead. And if he had been walking slowly towards the noise of the car before, then as his sister looked at him, he stopped and we drove past the infected person standing there.

—" It's useful. "— said the uncle sitting at the wheel. There was no one else besides him, just because he was not needed. After all, my parents are aware of the power of my telekinesis and that the infected are mostly not my opponents, but if anything, we can just leave in an armored car. Of course, this did not cancel out their excitement, but I managed to convince them that they needed people more than our group. In general, my uncle and I were going to go together. Rei also wanted to join us, but her parents were able to reason with the girl... although she really didn't like it. I think when I arrive I need to give her time.

—" Yes..". — Busujima stretched out and tightened her hand on the handle of the katana.

The road was... easy. We got to Tokyo in an hour, although if it hadn't been for telekinesis, we probably wouldn't have been able to do it the next morning. There were a lot of abandoned cars on the roads and the closer we were to the capital, the more cars there were.

—" What do we even need to look for?" — Alicia asked.

— "Something similar to a mobile satellite with antennas. As soon as you see it, you will understand, because what is jamming the signal for a hundred kilometers cannot be small and unnoticeable." — Roman explained. —" We're almost there... how many infected people are here." — it's good that we don't need to go to the city center, otherwise we would hardly have coped. For even on the outskirts of the city there were thousands of infected, and there were even more lying bodies. The infected themselves…

— "A lot of walking military. "— Roman said. — "We even saw several standing tanks... I don't understand how the army could lose?"

— "So someone really wanted the army to lose." — I voiced the most logical option.

—" Umbrella, only they had such long arms." — my uncle expressed his opinion... and then something heavy hit the armored car. — "What the hell?!"

— "What was that?" — sis asked, trying to see something through the armored windows.

— "Hmm, something fast and a little more than a person." — I said, closing my eyes for a second.

—" Fast? Yes, even the armored car staggered, it must be some kind of elephant or I do not know ..." —hissed uncle anxiously ... until something again tried to attack the armored car. Something fell on the roof, and the roof of the armored car began to bend slightly, but I used telekinesis and picked up what fell on our roof and moved it in front of us.

— "What the fuck..." — the uncle expressed himself, looking at an ugly creature with a brain out and a long tongue. This creature also had huge claws, so it's clear what he was trying to break through the roof with.

—" It seems the virus is mutating. "— I said uncertainly, holding this creature with telekinesis. Of course, it tried to break free, but nothing worked for it. — "Or were there such creatures in the city originally…"

—" If we had something like this, there would be problems." — uncle said seriously, and the girls ...Alicia looked at this creature with horror and some kind of disgust, and Saeko with interest and thirst to cut it.

—" Okay..." — I twisted his neck and, just in case, tore off his head and flattened his body... I did all this not in front of us, but by moving the creature away. I don't want to spoil my appetite.

— "I took a couple of photos, we will need to show them to our people later." — uncle said, putting the phone in the glove compartment.

—" I think this is it" —. Busujima noticed a car with a huge antenna and many connected devices nearby. We specially rode in this area in search of the right one… I would even say that we were very lucky to stumble upon this.

— "There are loaded ones around here." — my uncle noticed, to which I nodded and just started to wring their necks and throw them away. In the process, my uncle often threw worried glances at me, apparently worried about my mental state or something similar.

— "We need to turn it off quickly." — Uncle said, and after making sure that the outside was clean, he got out of the armored car. We followed him, or rather Alicia came out first, holding my hand.

—" Maybe I should just break it all?" — I asked.

— "If I can't turn it off, then this is a good option." — Uncle nodded. —" But what if some of this is needed? In general, hold your desire to break everything." — he chuckled. At this time, several infected people began to approach the noise, but Busujima coped with them. However, like Alicia, the girl stared at one of the infected... and his eyes exploded, and he fell dead.

— "How did you do that?" — Busujima asked.

— "I don't know... it was as if I felt something flowing in him... strange sensations." — Alicia said.

—" Maybe you can control the liquid?" — I suggested. —"If so, it's a very powerful ability."

— "Really?" — the girl smiled and looked again at the couple infected with her scarlet eyes and they stopped, and then fell and blood flowed through their ears, nose and mouth. After that, the girl's eyes regained their original color and smiled wider.

—" That's it, it's done." — Roma said , and indeed the antenna went down and all the burning devices just turned off…

— "Although it wasn't necessary. There would be enough fuel for another day, two at most." — he said. —"But what's done is done." — he nodded.

—" Then let's go back?" — sister tilted her head to the side.

—" I think so, but let's check the connection. "— my uncle pulled out an ordinary walkie-talkie and tried to contact the house... and he succeeded. — "Great, yes, we've done everything and we'll be coming back... only here there are even worse creatures than the usual modified ones. We'll talk about it when we get back."

— "So now we have a connection and we can find out what's going on in the world. "— I said, glancing at the tops of the high-rise buildings. — "Maybe someone has understood something... I don't want to believe that everything that humanity has achieved will collapse in an instant".

—" Brother ..." — Alicia said and her gaze was fixed on the rapidly moving figure. The figure was jumping briskly from building to building and it was the same mutated one that we met recently.

—" So he's not alone. "— said the uncle removing the rifle from the safety.

— "Apparently not. "— I replied and grabbed the mutant with telekinesis from a distance and just crushed it.

At home, there was news and not the best. The connection returned and with the help of the equipment in the mansion, we were able to find out how other countries were doing. This outbreak has really happened everywhere. But the main thing is that there are not a few survivors and the armies of many people remained intact, even if they lost the top command for some reason. Anarchy, lawlessness is everywhere and everything negative has escaped from people, many gangs and just lovers of killing survivors have appeared. But there are also people trying to keep the remaining society under control and not let them fall into despair.

And the most dangerous human weapon has already found its place. There were individuals in the command of some countries who decided that a nuclear strike was the only salvation. Even in Japan there was a nuclear explosion, fortunately far from Tokyo. But that's not all, some friends of my father and uncle survived and they managed to contact them... and they saw Umbrella helicopters and their people.

There were no mutated people who had received any abilities yet, but there were mutated infected people — yes, they were. In general, we had more things to do… I think it's worth visiting the Umbrella building in Tokyo. I have a feeling that there will be something interesting there that will help find the answer to some questions.

The first volume is finished. I don't know when there will be a sequel, definitely not in the near future.
