nAlthough the slightly chubby Arnold in front of David’s eyes is completely different from the skinny Arnold in his past life’s memory, But David with these facial features and voice, David believes he definitely didn’t mistake anyone.

nIn his past life, although Arnold was tall, he was skinny with a pair of sunken eyes that always carried a hint of melancholy, and he was a man of few words. He joined David because David gave him a box of biscuits when he was about to starve to death. At that time, David still had good intentions and was not as ruthless as he later became.

nSo Arnold followed David from then on. He was a year younger than David .” Unexpectedly, Arnold awakened his ability to transform into a werewolf one day and became an extraordinary person with unlimited potential.

nDavid knew that Arnold was a person of loyalty and gratitude. The box of biscuits that David gave him saved his life, and Arnold always remembered it. Originally, David thought that with Arnold’s awakened ability, they could have a better life in the apocalypse.

nHowever, one day, the two of them accidentally wandered into a horde of zombies and were surrounded by them. Arnold had just awakened his ability and it had not yet grown, coupled with long-term hunger and weakness, he was helpless in the face of the zombie’s siege. In the end, Arnold used all his strength to throw David onto the rooftop of a nearby building. “Run fast!” These were the last two words Arnold said to David.

nHowever, he himself was engulfed by the zombies and was devoured alive. David survived by hiding on the rooftop for two days and nights. When the zombie horde dissipated, he wanted to find Arnold’s body, dig a grave for him, and erect a tombstone, but he only found a few bones. He was not even sure if they belonged to Arnold.

nFrom then on, David was alone, struggling to survive in the apocalypse. David saved Arnold’s life, and Arnold returned the favor by saving David’s life, but David always felt indebted to him. Arnold should have had a good life, at least better than David’s, now that he had become an extraordinary person. Unexpectedly, he met his former comrade here, and David was excited in his heart.

nOnly Arnold stood in front of the shopkeeper and the girl:”Gentlemen, don’t be agitated. Let’s talk nicely.” Arnold’s appearance did not scare these several strong men, after all, the chubby Arnold didn’t look very intimidating, and he had a friendly face that didn’t look like a ruthless character. In addition, they had the advantage in numbers, while Arnold was only one man and two women, and was weak.

n“Brothers, let me treat you guys to this meal.” Arnold smiled and offered a cigarette to the man. Unexpectedly, the man slapped the cigarette away. “Who the hell wants you to treat us? I’m not short of this money? You’re the boss, right? Make your wife kneel down and apologize to me, otherwise, I’ll make you three walk out horizontally today.”

nWhether it was the effect of alcohol or something else, the man became agitated and started cursing loudly while waving the broken bottle. The other burly men also joined in the shouting. Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Arnold whispered to the woman behind him, “Wife, take Zoe and go call the police.”

nBefore Arnold could do anything, the man charged towards him with the beer bottle, shouting, “You want to call the police? I’ll make you regret it!” Arnold picked up a chair to defend himself, but before he could use it, he saw a figure flash by and the man holding the bottle was thrown back and hit the wall heavily.

nSurprised, Arnold turned his head to see a handsome young man standing beside him, it was David. Everyone was stunned, and no one could see how David had made his move.

nBefore the burly men could react, David lifted the man with one hand and slammed him heavily onto the table, shattering it to pieces. He then stomped on the man’s stomach with his foot, causing him to scream in pain.

nDavid then casually threw the man in front of the other burly men like trash. The man was completely limp like a noodle and couldn’t move at all. In fact, David had held back, if he had slammed the man directly onto the concrete floor, he might have killed him.

nAfter taking the gene potion, David could easily kill a strong human being as easily as crushing an ant, without any special techniques, just brute force. The burly men were all stunned, with shocked expressions on their faces. After all, their companion was over two hundred pounds, but David lifted him like a small chick and slammed him with one hand, causing him to be seriously injured. What a terrifying force!

nThe group of men suddenly sobered up and realized the danger they were in. Just as one of them pretended to make a phone call, David started counting down from ten. The burly men quickly helped their injured companion and tried to escape, but David suddenly stopped them.

n“Stop!” David remembered something. The burly men froze in fear and turned to face him, their eyes filled with panic.

n“Please buy the order before leaving, and also for this table,” David pointed to the table that had just been smashed by the muscular man. The man lowered his head and silently took out his phone to scan the payment code, then showed it to David after finishing. 𝒃𝙚𝙤𝙫𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝙢

nDavid nodded. “Alright, you can go now.” The man and his companions were relieved and quickly left. Arnold came over and gratefully said to David, “Brother, thank you. Thanks to you, otherwise I would definitely be in the hospital today. My name is Arnold, what’s your name, brother?”

n“I’m David,” David looked at the chubby version of Arnold and found it somewhat funny. The previous Arnold was dark and thin, and if it weren’t for his distinctive facial features and voice, David might not have recognized him. At this moment, Arnold introduced the two women beside him to David. Sophie and Zoe also thanked David repeatedly. They knew that if it weren’t for David’s intervention, they would have been in trouble tonight.

nDavid was quite surprised. He had never known that Arnold had a wife. Moreover, Arnold looked white and chubby, and his appearance was not outstanding. He never thought that Arnold could find such a beautiful wife. In the previous life, Arnold was tight-lipped about his past. David knew nothing about his profession, his family, or where he came from.

nSuddenly, David figured it out. When he met Arnold in the previous life, Arnold was alone, and his wife was not with him. In other words, Arnold’s wife had probably already encountered an unfortunate fate at that time.
