Chapter 1082

By the time they were done with the second number, the two of them were left parched and famished.

Both went back to the table, on the verge of drooling as they fixed their eyes on the dishes which were
already being served.

The service staff politely went out after serving them their meal, and once the entrance door had
closed, the both of them tucked in as if they had not eaten for a week.

"Wow, this is good," Carl said after taking a bite.

Nicole nodded in agreement and gestured at another one of the dishes to Carl.

"Try this one."

Carl took a piece and tasted it.

"Wow, that's lovely.Looks like you've found us a gem of a place."

"Of course I did," she replied with a smile.

"I had to take you somewhere ritzy to make sure you're well-fed and entertained."

Due to the sheer amount of food on the table, both Nicole and Carl were quickly gorged, whereupon
Carl laid his cutlery down.

"Nicole, I don't think I can take another bite.If I keep going, I'm not going to be able to buckle my belt."

Nicole's eyes narrowed as she laughed.



"Well, look at you.So much for being a tough guy, huh.Come on, let's head to the entertainment
section.It's going to help with the digestion."иσνєℓєвσσк.¢σмNicole got up, took the lead, and
sauntered off toward the entertainment area.

There was a galore of games in the entertainment area, and as Nicole walked, her eyes ranged over
the entire room, eventually spotting a shooting game.

"Carl, check this out.We've got something fun over here."

Carl was still slumped at the table when he heard Nicole calling out to him.Curious, he rose to his feet
and lumbered over to her.

"What is that?"

"A shooting game.Fancy a round?" she asked.

In response, he eyed her with his brow raised.

"The loser foots the bill." Nicole smiled.

"Yeah, let's get started."

Without further delay, the duo inserted their tokens, and the game began.

A horde of zombies soon appeared before them and hobbled over.

Carl took care of them with a few well-placed shots and turned to Nicole with a grin.

"See? It is a piece of cake."

Nicole smiled without uttering a word, as she knew that the best was yet to come.



As soon as the subsequent round began, the horde grew in size, and the game grew even more
intense in terms of speed and difficulty.

Carl took the gun and proceeded with the onslaught, leaving little room and reason for Nicole to
intervene.She stood idly by for the first three levels, as Carl had easily blitzed his way through.

After catching a glimpse of Nicole's score, which was still capped at zero, on the right side of the
screen, Carl smirked.

"You didn't hit any of them, did you? Come on.These zombies are lame as hell."

"Go ahead and have your fun, but you'll be singing a different tune soon enough."

Nicole shot him a piercing stare and picked her gun up.

As soon as the fourth stage began, Car] noticed that there were far fewer zombies on the screen and
quipped, '"Why are there so few of them? Is that all this game has to offer?"

Out of the blue, a bunch of zombies appeared from above and ambushed them.

Carl jumped, took aim at once, and began shooting while a second horde lurched out and charged at
him from the front.

Struggling to keep them at bay, he asked, "Nicole, what are you doing? Why are you not shooting?"

Noticing that Carl was getting anxious, Nicole took aim and began firing away.

The two of them teamed up, and with Nicole's aid, they got past the stage with relative ease.

"Nicole, we're supposed to be a team.Why did you just sit back and watch? Are you waiting for me to
get my butt kicked?" Carl complained.



"Aren't you a badass? I thought you didn't need me,"

Nicole mocked.

Carl could not think of a response to the jibe, and thus, decided to play it cool.

"Of course I am, but with that many zombies, I don't think I'll be able to stop your ass from being
handed back to you."

In actuality, he was insinuating that Nicole had fired the shots to protect herself while he was the one
leading the charge.

"Oh, alright then.You won't have to worry about me in the next stage.I'll just get myself killed," she
replied.

"You...come on.The match has already started, so you might as well just keep going," Carl pleaded.

This time, the number of zombies multiplied and flanked from both the left and right.

"Carl, do you need my help now?"
