Seeing Amanda in this state, Memphis couldn't help but feel a stir within him. He swallowed a gulp, trying to angle his body to hide the awkwardness below, and asked in a deep voice:"Is there an emergency?"He had heard her knock frantically and assumed there was a zombie attack, but her relaxed demeanor made him feel puzzled and suspicious.Amanda ran her fingers through her wet hair, which clung to her pale skin, looking both messy and mischievous. The water droplets trickled down, dampening her clothes. She glanced nonchalantly at Memphis and casually said:"Nothing urgent. I just wanted to discuss something. I hope you can protect me as I level up."Memphis suppressed his inner turmoil, his voice hoarse with confusion:"Didn't I say we'd head out to clear the zombies after lunch?"Amanda propped herself against the doorframe and lifted her wrist, showing her watch:"It's already noon. We've prepared lunch and came to get you."Feeling increasingly uneasy, he wanted to look a bit

"Being the leader of a team is really not easy. My methods must not be arbitrary…""Sigh… The outside is too dangerous, and I’m still too weak. If I encounter another level 18 devourer alone, I won't be able to escape. It seems increasing my own strength is the most urgent task!"After eating, as everyone was digesting their meal and the clock struck 1 PM, Memphis spoke in a deep voice:"This afternoon, we’ll hunt zombies within a 100-meter radius of this house. Who wants to join?"Jarred was the first to raise his hand, seriously saying:"Of course I will!"Memphis glared at him and scolded:"Of course you will. Even if you didn’t want to, I’d make you go."He needed Jarred, his second strongest combatant, someone to rely on in critical moments and a caregiver for the others in normal times.Looking around, almost everyone raised their hands, except for a few children still traumatized, showing no signs of movement. Even Winter hesitated for a while before slowly expressing willingne

Lionel panted. He had killed zombies before, but this time felt as terrifying as the first. After taking a deep breath, he advanced, swinging his machete, cutting down five or six zombies in quick succession.Angela, Jarred’s girlfriend, naturally received his special care. He stomped on a dismembered zombie, allowing her to finish it off easily.On the other side, after 14 seconds of manipulating ice, Memphis stopped forming the ice sword and honestly used the machete to kill zombies. This method was slower but conserved energy.Amanda, who had been rewarded with an exp crystal last time, quickly killed two more zombies and advanced to level 3. She hesi

Jarred let out a fierce laugh, using the advantage of having one more hand than his opponent. He transformed his free hand into a blade and struck down hard on the monster's head with a sharp thud."Ha..."The blade cut halfway through P1's skull but couldn't go any further. The monster let out a pained roar, the injury not enough to kill it. It swung its fist forward.Without hesitation, Jarred met its punch with his own. Repeatedly, the sound of their fists clashing echoed in the air. Jarred held P1's head firmly with one hand, continuously punching it with the other. After twenty or so punches, P1's remaining arm hung limp and broken.Without pausing, Jarred delivered three more consecutive punches to its head, shattering P1's skull.It was dead.Jarred, covered in a yellowish glow, slowly retreated as his body began to shrink, smoke rising from his skin. His face contorted with pain, and he groaned,"Oh, it hurts so much."He slumped to the ground, clutching his arm, his skin show
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 35: Zombies' Favorite Food Is Humans!
He reconsidered and dismissed the ridiculous idea.His intelligence had increased to 23 points with the Mindful Ring. It was a significant boost, but he still wanted more to match his consumption. He had passive skills enhancing five other attributes, but intelligence had yet to appear.It seemed he needed to actively hunt and kill zombies to level up to 7 and search for passive skills to boost his intelligence."Continue to clear out the zombies!"Memphis commanded in a deep voice, then turned towards a corner of the street where a few zombies were shambling along.Over the next hour, they cleared a 50-meter stretch from the base house to their current location. Several houses were broken into, zombies were killed, and supplies were scavenged. They had found a Hilux pickup truck and another Raptor, which was quite fortunate.However, they didn’t find any other survivors. This catastrophic event was truly terrifying.While the group took a short break, Jarred casually asked:"Boss, is
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 36: The Cruelty Of The Apocalypse.
A young man around 25 or 26, with a pale face like someone who indulged in wine and women, stood there. Two young women, about 21 or 22, extremely beautiful, were with him. Memphis found one of them vaguely familiar but couldn’t immediately place her.All three wore expensive clothes. Memphis recognized the brands from magazines, something like Hermes or Gucci. He couldn’t afford them, didn’t remember clearly, just knew enough to not seem unsophisticated and occasionally used the knowledge to impress others.The young man hurriedly said:"Hello, my name is Winston Robinson, and these are Esme and Gemma. May I ask your name? Are you from the government?"Memphis shook his head:"My name is Memphis Jackman. I haven't encountered any government officials yet... I have a small group, just a few people who have come together to help each other and establish a small base."Winston Robinson couldn't hide his disappointment. But he quickly lifted his spirits and sincerely said:"Memphis, we'r
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 37: No Luck!
Once the three had left, Gemma looked at Memphis with clear eyes and said:"I understand that absolute power requires a great price... Memphis, what must I pay to gain strength?"Memphis smirked; this woman was like Kiley, knowing how to navigate relationships well. Kiley was subtle and clever, while Gemma was more direct and straightforward.He was silent for a moment, then calmly said,"I haven't thought about it yet. Honestly, I don't need anything from you. My own problems are giving me enough headaches to solve, and you currently don't have the capacity to o
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 38: Listen To The Strong!
Memphis waited for Gemma to finish off the third zombie before casually stepping forward to pick up the skill book and examine it.“Ding. First-level active skill: Weapon Enhancement! Skill attribute: Enhances the attributes and damage of the current weapon by 50%. Skill activation: consumes 2 stamina, 1 intelligence point. Duration: 1 minute. Cooldown: 2 minutes. Note: Skill power and duration are determined by the weapon's attributes and skill level.”Memphis was stunned; this skill was quite unique.In a way, the stronger the weapon, the stronger this skill would be, with virtually no limit. If he had a weapon with 100 strength points, this skill would add 50 more, which would be incredibly powerful.However, he was overthinking it. A 100-strength weapon might be a level 10 item. Currently, the best he had was a level 2 broadsword, adding 2 strength and 1 agility. Finding a level 10 weapon might take years. Plus, while a 50% weapon power increase was significant, it was somewhat re

Chapter 745:
If Memphis were a vile person, and Hope Town was a cesspool of corruption, there would have been no need for Sarah to openly declare their connection. A quiet escape plan would have sufficed. Sarah’s immediate transparency indicated her unwillingness to conceal anything and her clear desire to align herself with Memphis.She wanted more than just a foothold in Hope Town. She sought influence and power, no longer content to remain merely a legal advisor. For this, she was willing to risk breaking the rules, even knowing the law better than anyone."A place with people will inevitably have conflicts. Violating principles like this may be wrong in theory, but it feels right emotionally."Memphis couldn’t stop others from harboring personal agendas, nor could he prev
Chapter 744:
This allowed all his actions to seem justified, fitting within any narrative one could perceive. It made him entirely unreadable—his thoughts a mystery, his intentions obscure, and even his decisions, once made, felt inevitable.“Lawless.”Calling himself a bandit wasn’t a self-deprecating joke—it was the raw truth.Memphis glanced coldly at the two masterminds before letting his gaze drift to the clueless “big-bottomed lamb” standing there. A wave of irritation immediately washed over him.Big chests lacking brains had been proven time and time again. Who would have thought big bottoms shared the same fate? This woman didn’t seem to grasp the gravity of the situation at all. She displayed no hint of fear.When Rosa noticed Memphis looking at her instead of the document, and even claiming it was a forgery, she couldn’t help but ask in confusion: “How could it be fake? You haven’t even read it; how would you know if it’s real or not?"The corner of Memphis's mouth twitched uncontrollab
Chapter 743:
Memphis was indeed frowning at the omission in the materials. Everything else was fine; nothing seemed worthy of criticism—so where was the residents' survey of preferences?Don’t say they forgot? What kind of operation is this?Just as he was about to ask, Rosa spoke first:“Memphis, I have something to tell you.”Instinctively curious, Memphis replied: “What is it?”Rosa’s inner smile grew. His propensity for "snooping" was too high—one vague sentence was enough to make him forget about scolding. She lowered her voice, adopting a pleading tone:“My grandfather wants to talk to you.”"Hm? Adolph? What could he want from me? Aren’t all proposals supposed to go through Sarah first?"Sarah, who Memphis had assigned from Hope Town to temporarily oversee operations, was responsible for compiling and preliminarily reviewing all proposals from Crimson Flame's residents.It struck him then: something was off. Why was this rookie delivering the message instead of Sarah?His brow furrowed slig
Chapter 742:
5:30 PM on Day 24 Post-Apocalypse, outskirts of Crimson Flame Town.Eight hours into the rescue mission, the 4th Reserve Battalion, working in tandem with 24 Dagger members, successfully rescued 277 survivors from approximately 70% of the central town’s territory. This is an astounding number, highlighting the stark survival disparity.Crimson Flame Town's center had about 40,000 residents. To find 277 survivors by Day 24, with the potential for even more from the remaining areas, is remarkable. In contrast, Renaissance County and its surrounding zones, with a larger population, yielded only 158 survivors by Day 12—12 days earlier.Where Manipulation Types exist, human survival becomes extraordinarily tenuous.Memphis emerged from a small ice shard, his face etched with exhaustion. He and Wylie were the principal forces combing the southwestern region for survivors. Within a 4-kilometer radius of the maternity clinic, not a single soul remained unaccounted for, even the faintest signs

Splash! Splash! Splash!The stones crashed into the lake like meteors slamming into the sea. Each impact sent waves surging violently, water spraying up to three meters high. Stones that missed the lake shattered the courtyard, spraying bloodstained concrete and debris everywhere. The entire area turned into chaos, the once serene surroundings now a murky mess.Jarred’s unconventional attack style could easily rival bomb strikes."Hssaaahhh…"From the lake’s center, countless purple bubbles, each the size of a fist, burst forth, releasing toxic green gas. Bloodied slime mixed with frothy water splattered about, creating a grotesque spectacle. A furious, cold-blooded hiss pierced the air, and a mas
Chapter 740:
The walls being constructed by Hope Township consist of three layers with a total thickness of 1 meter. The primary components include mud mixed with mutated vines and barbed wire, reinforced with large stones and a steel core. The outer layers are sheathed in metal sheets and reinforced with sturdy wooden braces, making them incredibly difficult to destroy. Additionally, after construction, the walls are further strengthened by Earth Manipulation practitioners, compacting the earth and stone tightly for added durability.This segment of the wall had collapsed, the crumbled dirt resembling cold porridge, with steel rods scattered as far as 20 meters away. Some metal sheets and barbed wire were also punctured, showcasing the sheer brute force of the snake responsible for the destruction.Jarred examined two nearby sedans, both twisted

Jarred blinked twice, then responded: “I’m quite interested, but I don’t have any magic crystals on me right now."Anthony waved dismissively: “No rush, no rush. We have plenty of time."With that, both men exchanged smiles, the atmosphere between them amicable to the extreme.Five minutes later, the Lakeside convoy disappeared into the dusty horizon. Jarred narrowed his eyes slightly, then snapped his fingers. A second figure, an exact reflection of himself, formed out of moonlight.Once the Reflection summoned by the Simulation Ring materialized: “it" donned clothing and took a few documents from Jarred. Flashing a grin, it said: “How about we swap missions? You meet with the 'n
Chapter 738:
Seven seconds later, Jarred landed on the eastern bank of Grieving River.Three jeeps from Lakeside's government awaited them, accompanied by over a dozen officials and soldiers. Witnessing Jarred’s effortless flight, they couldn’t help but swallow nervously.Lakeside had someone capable of flight as well—Verne Riddle. But this Lawton fellow was far too skilled and smooth, not even producing the slightest sound of rushing wind.Jarred landed in front of the three jeeps and released Sherwin and his companions. Scanning the group of ten people before him, he nodded and said: “The handover is complete. You may leave now."The staff immediately stepped forward to inspect the three Phó memb
Chapter 737:
"The first approach is ideological harmony. Hope Township abandons its pursuit of self-reliance and agrees to follow the state’s centralized policies. Alternatively, Lakeside County could cease its ambition to connect with Harbor Line District and instead ally with Hope Township to rebel. In either case, the conflict would dissolve on its own. Of course, this approach is too far-fetched to even consider.""The second approach is ideological suppression. Hope Township and Lakeside County resolve to fight to the death. The losing side would vanish, taking its ideology to the afterlife. The winning side seizes all resources and celebrates victory, gaining more fuel to sustain the engine of peace. This destructive option has already occurred. While its consequences have not been catastrophic yet, there is a significant risk of it reoccurring if the third approach cannot succeed."
