However, there was still hope. Most of the team members, both regular and reserve, had gained experience in large-scale battles, and their abilities had significantly grown. The number of high-level individuals needed to be recounted, but everyone had undoubtedly become extraordinary.Memphis glanced around before asking in a deep voice: “Does anyone have suggestions for our next move?”As usual, Yosef was the first to speak up: “Based on my analysis, the remaining zombie horde will likely move toward the county center to regroup with the main zombie forces, but they probably won’t receive the same level of protection as before.”He had a thorough understanding of the zombie horde’s behavior and could roughly predict the reaction of the mastermind behind them at the center of Meadowbrook Lane.“It” had given up on the remaining zombies, focusing instead on gathering as many high-level zombies as possible.Wylie quickly voiced his opinion, “In my view, we should take this opportunity t

Evergreen County.Cormac Dennis, Graham Ewing, and Tobin Ross were fleeing for their lives. Behind them, a speed-type zombie was relentlessly pursuing them.They had initially deployed 12 jeeps to scout the small hill, but now only 9 remained. Of the original 80 men, just over 60 were left, and everyone was injured.Cormac glanced back at the level 21 F2 zombie chasing them, his face darkening. He gritted his teeth, summoning a fiery spear a meter long in his hand, and with a swift motion, he hurled it backward.Boom!The fiery spear shot through the air at incredible speed, almost instantly striking its target and causing it to explode.But the target wasn’t the zombie—it was the tire of the rearmost jeep.With its tire blown, the jeep lost control, swerving violently before crashing into a nearby wall, throwing five or six burly men out in all directions.The F2 speed-type zombie let out a bloodthirsty roar the moment it spotted the group. It immediately abandoned its pursuit and lu
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 232: Endurance Has Limits.
If the zombie horde hadn’t pushed so close to the town center, Memphis would have loved to keep pushing straight to level 14.But now the situation was getting risky. They were only about 3 kilometers from the town center, and 2 kilometers from the safe zone. If they didn’t retreat now, and a high-level zombie suddenly attacked, they wouldn’t have a chance to escape.He raised his hand and ordered:"Clean up the battlefield and retreat!"Upon hearing his command, the subordinates exhaled a sigh of relief and began throwing gasoline bombs to burn all the zombie corpses. They then followed the sequence to retreat. The military vehicles were always ready, transporting the exhausted troops back to Hope Town.Subsequently, the teams on Sunset Boulevard and Whispering also retreated in succession, bringing along the workers and temporarily pausing their preparations.Of course, it was only temporary. Tonight, the workers would continue their earth-digging operations.As soon as the vehicle

Looking at the thick report in his hand and glancing at the absent-minded expression on Dr. Beirne’s face, Memphis began his work of persuasion:“Dr. Beirne, on behalf of 143 team members and 372 residents of Hope Town, I want to thank you.”Dr. Beirne, startled, stammered: “W-Why…?”Memphis, in a deep voice, explained:“You know, 15 people died because they didn’t know how to allocate their potential points correctly. If this report had been available earlier, and they had known how to allocate their points properly, even if they were severely injured, they might have been able to hold on long enough to be treated.“This report you’ve produced will help the remaining 143 team members know how to save themselves, how to ensure they have enough stats to wait for rescue. You’ve indirectly saved many lives. You’ve secured the future of Hope Town.”Dr. Beirne’s lips moved as if to speak, but he couldn’t find the words…Memphis didn’t give him time to think further. He took out a second-ti
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 234: The Path Ahead is Unclear!
After a brief exchange of greetings, Memphis raised his hand and said:“Let’s begin.”As usual, Lionel Hester led the presentation, and Amanda Owens distributed the preliminary documents.“We’ve secured more than 7 tons of various food supplies, 11 tons of fuel, and taken control of one gas station. We’ve rescued 73 people, including 11 extraordinary individuals... Of course, these numbers are still growing as many houses remain unexplored."“The breakdown includes 32 men, 29 women, and 12 children. For now, their condition is stable."“Currently, the population of Hope Town stands at 463.”Human resilience is incredibly strong. Despite the zombie infestation outside, people still find ways to survive indoors. They lock their doors, stay inside rooms, and consume stored food. Some hide in basements, water tanks, cars—many ways to stay alive. As long as they don’t run into high-level zombies and still have food and water, they manage to survive.These achievements brought joy to the te
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 235: Even No Time To Eat.
After discussing a few more issues with his brother, Memphis slowly said:"After dinner, instruct Michal Reilly and Jaden McNeil to urge all survivors, the supply gathering team, and the fortifications team to start digging immediately. Tell Lionel to bring over some battery-powered lights; we’ll be working through the night."Jarred responded gravely: “Only by working through the night do we have a chance of winning against them…"Jarred then hesitated before asking: “Big brother, why don't we just use fire to make things easier?"Memphis replied calmly: “Fire is effective, but who will put it out? This urban area is densely packed with buildings. Do you plan on burning down both our army and theirs? Moreover, zombies can endure fire much better than humans. Unless it's a last resort, we won’t use fire recklessly."Zombies, when set on fire, might still persistently advance if they haven't been killed, but humans can’t even approach large fires, let alone deal with the risk of being
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 236: Two Difficult-To-Please Women.
The big battle is coming, life and death are uncertain, who has time to care about this disabled group? If they win, he would give a small raise to pacify them; if they lose, even if they cry out, they shouldn't expect his attention, and he might abandon them outright during the escape.Next was the internal situation of the ten squads recently.The members of Wylie Rawson's squad showed almost absolute loyalty to Memphis and Jarred. Most of these people were carefully selected by that brat Wylie, all rebellious and valiant youths who respected the strong and hated being forced into conformity by the government.Reports from the teams of Gemma Pryor, Timon Roo

There was a brief pause, and Wallflower bit her lip before slowly responding:“Alright, I know you understand this better than anyone… Because there are many important people in Hope Town—Zoran Rollins, Winston Robinson, Londyn Leyton, James Tucker, and the others... And me as well. As long as the government knows these people are here, they will definitely send troops to rescue us.”A smirk appeared on Memphis’s face. He pulled a report from the table and slid it over to Wallflower, saying:“We have our own direction. Miss Wallflower, we will wait for the government to come and rescue us, we will wait for them to take the

With his extensive knowledge of the extraordinary, Memphis quickly came to a conclusion about Big Black Dog:"Evolution?"The dog was currently at Level 29. It had consumed vast quantities of magical crystals, potions, zombie flesh, and countless extraordinary treasures. If it didn’t evolve after all that, it would truly be a disgrace to its lineage.Big Black Dog’s evolution delighted Memphis. If this dumb dog broke through to Level 30, Hope Town would finally have a true powerhouse. Be it mutated snakes or frogs, one strike would flatten them.Moreover, the fact that the dog chose to evolve here, without any concern for external dangers, indicated its absolute trust in the safety of this area.Both Shaina and Big Black Dog had, in their own ways, demonstrated their trust in Hope Town’s security on the same day. It was a good omen.Jarred, standing anxiously nearby, couldn’t help but ask nervously after seeing his boss bark and receive no response from the pet:"Boss, what’s wrong wi
Chapter 761:
In Hope Town, those who were soft and delicate often chose lighter roles. Few made it to the ranks of official soldiers by Day 25 of the apocalypse, as the path was grueling, taxing both physically and mentally, often at the expense of one’s appearance.Pressed under the immense aura radiating from Memphis, Paula bit her lip and decisively raised her hand. In her palm spun five rapidly rotating fire blades, a sign of her determination to try rather than retreat.Seeing her resolve, the onlookers grew attentive, their anticipation palpable.The five second-tier Fire Blades in Paula’s hand began spinning faster, showing signs of merging into a single, cohesive fiery wheel.However, courage couldn’t quell her nerves. The Fire Wheel was uneven, fluctuating between cohesion and separation, on the verge of exploding prematurely.Osiris grew agitated, nearly shouting in frustration. Memphis, on the other hand, merely furrowed his brows slightly and instructed calmly:"Release it."Whoosh.Pa
Chapter 760:
At this moment, he swung his hand forward, sending the half-meter Fire Wheel hurtling toward the wooden dummy stationed at the enemy's position. Upon impact, it exploded with a deafening roar, unleashing eight massive arcs of fire that engulfed a 40-meter radius in a fiery inferno.The continuous burning effect became evident. Even in the barren clearing, where nothing substantial remained, flames roared with increasing intensity. Each second saw the fire spreading wider, melting sand and gravel into molten sludge. The fiery devastation painted the sky crimson with its overwhelming heat.The surrounding team members watched the scene in stunned silence, their bodies trembling. If such an attack were directed at them, there would be no escape—they’d be reduced to charred remains in seconds.Osiris pointed at the massive blaze in the distance and said:"This is nearly the maximum power of the third-tier Fire Blade that I can unleash. Both the inward compression and outward release forms
Chapter 759:
Once connected, he followed Osiris's steps, using his willpower to continuously enhance his control over the skill.After ten seconds, the Fire Blade indeed shrank in size, turned blue, increased in pressure, and spun twice as fast as before.Seeing this, the team member grinned widely and laughed: “It works! Haha, it works! I did it!"However, as he laughed, the fiery blade began to wobble uncontrollably. Within moments, it lost its compressed state with a faint puff and reverted to normal—even showing signs of extinguishing.Osiris, witnessing this, roared angrily: “Focus! Stay focused! Damn it, do you want to kill someone? If you release a half-baked compressed strike, it's more dangerous than a basic attack. It might even explode on the spot! You're training, not fooling around—what the hell are you laughing about?"His frustration was justified. Osiris had endured countless explosions while perfecting Fire Wheel, and the mere thought of it triggered his lingering trauma.Luckily,
Chapter 758:
Osiris wanted those wielding Fire Blade to master the skill to the point where the first dummy could burn entirely without the second dummy being affected by the "continuous burning" effect.Why? So that melee fighters working alongside ranged attackers wouldn’t be hindered by friendly fire, wouldn’t fear being accidentally struck, and wouldn’t be obstructed by or trapped behind flaming zombies.The official member who had just been scolded by Osiris failed this test. His Fire Blade strike produced six flaming blades. Five ignited the first dummy, while one mistakenly hit the second dummy, reducing both to ashes.If the second dummy had been a melee teammate fighting on the front lines, it would have been a case of accidental manslaughter.At this point, Osiris stepped into the training area. The logistics crew, understanding his intentions, quickly replaced the burnt dummies with two fresh ones, setting them up within the target circle.The new dummies were placed just 15 cm apart. N
Chapter 757:
Setting aside the reconnaissance report, Memphis turned to two documents on his desk. One was a criminal wanted notice from Harbor Line District, with Gemma’s name prominently listed, and the other was a communique regarding facilitating contact for the relatives of surviving residents.After a careful 10-minute review, Memphis assigned two tasks to Amanda for execution.The final item on his evening agenda was reviewing the combat footage of Jarred versus the mutated snake.Picking up the video recorder, Memphis yawned as he played back the scene of a two-legged human and a legless reptile locked in an intense chase."This snake looks pretty strong…”"Is this a water snake?”“Spitting venom like that... nasty.”“Damn, it’s fast as hell…”“If it were chasing me, I’d be screwed immediately…”“What? That Void Strike, a fourth-tier skill, is insane…”“I wonder how snake meat tastes…”“Grilled, it tastes grilled. Boiled, it tastes boiled…”“I’ve heard snake-infused liquor is excellent…”“

The consequences were too severe for anyone to risk. Even the most greedy wouldn’t dare.And for those thinking they could abscond with the skill? Escape where? Lakeside? That was laughable. How far could they run? For how long?Memphis activated the gray-white skill, carefully focusing on it. In an instant, a mechanical system voice echoed in his ears:"Ding! Fourth-tier active skill: 'Tiger Lost in the Plains.' Skill attribute: Creates a suppression zone with a 10-meter radius around the user. Enemies entering this zone cannot deal critical damage to the user and take an additional 10-30% random damage from the user's attacks. Skill consumption: 10 stamina, 5 intellect. Skill duration: 10 seconds. Skill cooldown: 60 seconds. Can be enhanced and advanced."As the mechanical voice faded, Memphis couldn't help but feel an odd expression crossing his face."Seriously, how can a skill name sound this 'dramatic'?""'Tiger Lost in the Plains'—clearly derived from the idiom 'A tiger humbled
Chapter 755:
In the world of the underworld, one’s fate isn’t entirely their own.In the world of skills, abilities aren’t entirely one’s own.In the world of zombies, existence isn’t entirely their own.These days, even being a zombie isn’t easy.Zombies must endure various constraints, unable to "live" as they please.Even if they remain still, they instinctively feel hunger and are driven to seek humans to devour. Once they find humans, they risk being destroyed. Even if they don’t actively hunt, humans will seek them out to kill, drawn by the experience and resources they carry. Their very existence is intrinsically tied to the underworld.If there’s no food, they can starve, hiding lazily in backyards without provoking anyone. They could choose to avoid the world, gaze at the sky and ground, and resolve to be kind and virtuous zombies. But even then, they aren’t free. Zombies that sit quietly like tame dogs will still be dragged off by Manipulation Types to act as errand runners, unaware of w
Chapter 754:
The zombie-attracting waves emitted by the Manipulation Type, Manipulate M3 Dragon Light, were expanding. Its ability to replenish its forces suggested its war machine’s sustainability, with no risk of depleting resources.The report ended there, leaving Memphis deep in thought, his brows tightly knitted.With its current arsenal, Hope Town was unlikely to withstand the 110,000-strong zombie horde.The Soul Suppression attacks from M3 had an exceptionally long range. Meanwhile, Hope Town’s long-range firepower consisted of only three 2a28 Grom cannons, which were far too sparse. The remaining weaponry lacked sufficient range, forcing them into mid- or close-range combat—a perilous endeavor.“
