Another person that gave Neil a headache was Gavin. He still didn't know what the problem was with this person recently. Every second of this man's life was spent on going against him. If that man didn't like to see the male lead's face, then he should just take his group and go far away from here.
But the fact that Gavin was still lurking around gave him a headache. So Neil's aura became colder again after seeing Gavin's glaring eyes. "If you really don't like staying here, then just f*ck off!"
This damned man! If Gavin didn't like this second base, the latter could go away and just die!
There was a reason why he didn't change the safe zone. First, people were still suspicious of him after realizing the identity of Tyler. And second, If his baby were to escape from the clutches of that mad female lead and found out that Neil wasn't here, where would Tyler search for him?
So Neil wanted to stay at this place for as long as he could.
But this person, Gavin, clearly didn't want to make things easier for the male lead. His mouth twitched after hearing those words.
"Do you really think you can kick me out? Dream on!" And then Gavin and his team walked away.
On another side, Phil and Ray were also present and couldn't help but glance sympathetically at the male lead. They had already seen what kind of sickeningly sweet love he had shared with Tyler, but the latter still backstabbed their current leader.
After seeing the cold expression on Neil's face, they could understand what this guy was feeling.
"Neil, don't worry about Gavin. You know how he is." Phil said, trying to comfort the guy.
"Yes. He has always been acting against you, hasn't he?" Ray also tried to give a hand at comforting the male lead.
Neil glanced at the two people around him and rolled his eyes, not saying a single word. He was clearly too lazy to explain things to them.
After this, the male lead gave several orders to them and sprinted off, heading out of the safe zone. He wanted to become even more powerful than the female lead. So he planned to take as many cores as possible to save Tyler's life.
So at this point, Neil headed out and killed multiple zombies at once, sucking away power from the core. At the same time, he also found time to contact the higher-ups and ask them about Tyler's power in this world.
But unfortunately, even the higher-ups couldn't find the power. This meant that as long as power was out in the open, it was easier for the higher-ups to locate it. But if someone were currently using Tyler's power, it would not be easy to find it, just like in the previous world.
So that means someone was currently misusing that power, and Neil had a perfect candidate in his mind: Hope.
Not wasting a minute longer, Neil headed back when it was already late evening. But when he returned, he saw that the entire school was again in havoc. The playground and entrance were in a mess. More humans were dead as a few people carried the injured.
Just then, Phil came running toward Neil, who was still narrowing his eyes after seeing everything before his eyes. Then he noticed an anxious-looking Phil. "Leader, Tyler came just now and wreaked havoc! He's really a monster!"
Everyone around him started saying the same things, but the male lead wasn't thinking about it. His brows furrowed as he pondered why Tyler could be here and wreak havoc. Of course, the only reason might be that Tyler was still under the female lead's control.
When he thought of this, he couldn't help but feel his heart twisting in pain. His baby was being manipulated into doing things against his desire, and he couldn't do a damned thing! If this were the case in his original world, he would've made sure to kill them all!
But since this was the case of Tyler's life, he could only swallow bitter poison and deal with it.
"Find stronger people and help everyone." Then Neil thought of something and said, "I'm going to rest. So I'll be alone for a while."
After saying this, he swiftly went inside his room in the dormitory and closed the door behind him, rubbing the bridge of his nose. That female lead was indeed brilliant. She specifically chose when he was out to attack the base to create a crack between him and all others.
She thought that saving the humans was also one of the male lead's main goals, but that wasn't the case in reality. Neil didn't care about these people since this was just another transmigrating world, not really the real world where people could really die.
Only Tyler was the exception. So he had to do everything to save that man! After determining it in his heart, he slowly took out other zombie cores and started sucking power.
And then, the same routine followed. Once Neil would go out, Tyler would come with a few zombies and attack the base. At first, everyone simply thought of this as another coincidence, but people like Gavin couldn't deal with it any longer. So they started discussing this among themselves.
"Do you think the leader is doing this on purpose?"
"I'm sure he is taking revenge against everyone because we found out about Tyler so easily!" Gavin sneered in his heart.
"Then…" Someone gasped. "Does that mean Neil is going out on purpose so that Tyler could come and kill us one by one?"
"That must be the case!" Gavin said, glaring at the door closed. "If Neil wants to be controlled by a zombie king, he should just go ahead all alone! Why should he bring us innocent people in between?"
"And maybe this is the reason why Neil didn't change the base like the last time. He wants Tyler to appear!"
This conservation was unfortunately heard by the male lead, who had just opened the door. He knew that after this conservation, the seed of doubt would have been planted within everyone's hearts. So even if he wanted, he wouldn't be able to defend his baby.
Glaring at the group of people standing before him, the male lead could only ignore them and do his work, which was to power up as much as he could. For all he knew, that female lead was also powering up by sending Tyler again and again.
