At this moment, he stood before the entire leadership and solemnly declared:"Everyone, I may not be someone who speaks much, but I can assure you that I will use every bit of my ability to protect Hope Town, even if it means sacrificing my own life."From the intense determination in Wylie's eyes, one could see an immense resolve. His determination was contagious, filling everyone with hope and anticipation.Outside, in the wide courtyard, the survivors of Hope Town were also gathered around the large bulletin board, reading the latest news."Wylie has been appointed deputy squad leader.""Oh... I'm twice the age of Deputy Leader Rawson...""It seems like Leader Jackman favors young people, doesn’t it?""Indeed, even many of the squad leaders are quite young...""I heard Wylie has been following the leader from early on..."The murmuring among the crowd began to spread, and someone subtly introduced a key point to counter the speculation:"I don’t see it that way. Leader Jackman valu
Memphis’s lips curled up as he continued giving orders:"Miss Wallflower, initiate a conversation with them. Tell them that we are the survivor base of Meadowbrook Lane."Wallflower paused for a moment, then pressed the two-way connection button and calmly said:"This is the survivor base of Meadowbrook Lane. We’ve received your signal. Please respond…""This is the survivor base of Meadowbrook Lane. We’ve received your signal…"After
Arlen, after a moment of thought, continued to ask directly: “Is there anything else?"Memphis glanced around, seemingly taking in the reactions of those below, then casually said with a slight smirk: “Oh, there are also many other survivors who want to return to the Lakeside District base. You should deploy military trucks to accommodate everyone.""...?!"Seeing no response from the other side, Memphis added: “Please understand, after a battle, our ammunition is depleted, and my team members are recovering from injuries, making it impossible to escort these people to the base. Letting them leave on their own, I’m concerned about their safety..."<
What was more important was that Sarah had an impressive academic background, holding a Ph.D in economic law from Stanford University. She was currently hosting an international economics program and was famous for her statement: “If they can do it, so can we."This was the legendary "beauty with brains." But why was she here?Memphis certainly knew Sarah Jake, and not only that, he was very familiar with her, even harboring a bit of resentment. This woman had highlighted numerous examples of economic fraud abroad, including methods, suspicious signs, and countermeasures—all intended to warn the public and domestic businesses.Before the apocalypse
Memphis reached into his backpack and pulled out a level 2 resistance ring. He had an assistant place it in front of Nicky and said:"No problem. I won’t force the issue. Here’s a small gift for you, consider it a token of goodwill between us."Nicky looked at the ring on the table, cold sweat forming on his forehead.How ruthless.Memphis had given the ring as a personal gift, putting Nicky in a difficult position—he couldn’t accept it easily, nor could he refuse it.
Memphis calmly shook his head and said:"I’m not interested in her. However, I’d like to know why you want to trade for weapons and ammunition."Nicky quickly thought up an excuse and replied:"We’re planning to attack a small village, so we need more weapons and ammunition to ensure a safe operation…"Memphis had already figured out 80% of the situation in Sunny Hills and knew Nicky was just making excuses. But he needed to extract the truth from him, providing a reasonable justification for his team. Cormac initially intended to "borrow" an armored vehicle to bolster his forces, but obtaining such a powerful weapon wasn't easy. Nicky suggested an alternative: instead of borrowing an armored vehicle, they should request troops from Memphis. Given his concern for his subordinates' safety, Memphis would likely deploy armored vehicles to ensure their protection. This way, they could strategically center their combat efforts around the armored vehicle, making it easier to leverage its power.Cormac found the idea reasonable and agreed without hesitation.Of course, Nicky's suggestion was fraught with risk, akin to inviting a wolf into the fold or bringing trouble upon themselves. But if he didn't "offer" this idea and steer the plan in a more feasible direction, he would have been tasked with the impossible mission of securing an armored vehicle.Now that Memphis had taken the initiative to propose it, Cormac was eager to proceed. He continued: “Commander Jackman, when can we expect yoApocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 342:
Jarred, having also heard the dog’s howls, suddenly looked displeased. He snorted and stood up, saying: “This time I’m going to give it a good beating to settle the score for biting my hand earlier today.""Stop whining. Be careful it doesn’t bite off your leg—you still have to fight tomorrow."After Jarred left, Memphis narrowed his eyes, gazing in the direction of Meadowbrook Lane's center.Wallflower and Valiant’s assurance that "this place is very safe" had finalized his plan.It was a classic case of using one enemy to kill another while keeping his own hands clean.Haha, Jarred knows Memphis well—he wouldn’t just let Valiant, Wallflower, Zoran, and the others leave so easily.On one hand, Memphis genuinely intended to release them unconditionally, building goodwill and buying time for Hope Town to gather strength. On the other, he aimed to use their words to cripple some of Lakeside District’s forces.With Valiant and Zoran’s assurance of safety and knowledge of the zombie horde
