Alec immediately stepped aside to block Tern, his expression serious as he said, "He just fainted temporarily due to recent fatigue and lack of sleep. Reese said my father will recover after a day or two of rest, so it's best if you don't go in and disturb him."

Reiss also hurried to the door at this moment and nodded in agreement, "That's right, Councillor Bud just fainted temporarily from excessive fatigue. He can't be disturbed now."

Tern's eyes glanced back and forth between Alec and Reese, then the corners of his mouth rose slightly in a sneer.

He knew that Senator Bud had a heart disease. This fainting was probably not as simple as Alec and Reese said.

"In that case, I won't disturb Councillor Bud's rest."

"But Alec, you should understand that our shelter cannot be without a leader. If something really happens to Councillor Bud... we have to discuss in advance who will be the next leader."

After saying that, Tern turned and strode away.

Watching Tern's retreating back, Alec's fingers unconsciously clenched the doorknob tightly, his knuckles turning white from the exertion. A gloomy look flashed through his eyes, and his heart was filled with anger and resentment.

Tern's attitude was completely like stepping on him.

At this time, Reiss stepped forward, his eyes showing a hint of urgency, and said, "Since Tern is so aggressive, why not go find Armand and let him deal with Tern."

After hearing what Reese said, Alec fell into deep thought, his eyes flashing with thought.

Besides Tern's forces, there's another faction within the shelter, led by Armand. Armand's power is even stronger than Tern's. More importantly, Armand is also one of their family's bodyguards. However, unlike Tern, Armand is fiercely loyal to his father. This is why Tern is hesitant to seize power rashly.

If Armand takes people to deal with Tern, it would indeed be a feasible solution.

It's just that although Armand is loyal to his father, he only obeys his father's orders. It is impossible for Armand to obey his father's orders or commands.

Thinking of this, Alec replied: "You know, Armand will not listen to my instructions and orders. He only listens to my father's orders."

Reese also frowned and said worriedly, "If Armand refuses to help deal with Tern, then it will be bad. Now there is only one way that may be able to resolve the current crisis."

"What method?" Alec asked anxiously, his eyes full of expectation.

"That means going to Saint Yelm Hospital to get medical equipment and save your father." Reis said with a serious expression.

Alec's eyes widened in shock. He looked at Reiss and said, "Saint Yelm Hospital? Are you kidding me? There are zombies everywhere. There are only two of us. How can we possibly get in and get the medical equipment?!"

Reis said in a calm tone:

"Then ask Armand for help in your father's name and ask him to give you some people to go with you."

Alec's eyes lit up immediately and he said excitedly, "That's a good idea. I'll talk to Armand about it right away."
