Not long after, the three of them arrived at a huge mansion in the center of the compound.
Lucas stepped forward and knocked.
"Come in!"
A strong, resonant voice answered from inside.
Lucas pushed the door open and led Ethan and Skinny Pete into the mansion.
The place was ridiculously luxurious. In the middle of the apocalypse, being able to live like this told Ethan everything he needed to know—Leonard was very good at enjoying himself.
In the living room, a middle-aged man in a black suit sat on the sofa. A younger man who looked like a bodyguard stood behind him.
Ethan clocked it immediately—both were Tier 9. And that "bodyguard" was a Tier 9 Enhanced.
His ability felt similar to Miles's: an energy-shield type. He could project it onto other people. Honestly, it was perfect for a personal guard.
Goldcrest City having two Tier 9s didn't surprise Ethan much. The apocalypse changed day by day, and it had been more than ten days since Ethan first arrived in Clearford City.
