Memphis thought for a moment and replied honestly: “If we add up the levels of everyone with combat ability, we might still fall short of that monster's level."Jarred fell silent for a moment, then smirked: “Haha, I'll be the one to smash its head."Memphis shook his head, smiling: “If everything goes well, you might not even get a chance to touch it. If we fail, we might all be dead within seconds of the fight starting..."At this point, Memphis couldn't turn back. He knew he could run, but hiding would only be temporary...If there's one Devo
After driving for over a kilometer, Jarred suddenly pointed ahead:"Boss, something strange over there."Memphis squinted, tapped the window, and shouted:"Drive another 100 meters, then turn back to the red house across the street."Lionel immediately complied, accelerating forward, then turning around and slowly approaching the red house.Memphis took a deep breath in excitement. Boom!Five seconds after Wylie left, a charred black shadow crashed down from the sky. It was none other than the Devourer, its entire body burned black.It could locate Wylie thanks to both sound and scent.Wylie didn't use any perfume; he was the second bait!"Reckkkkkk!"The E2 Devourer screeched madly, its mind filled with nothing but hatred and fury. The pain fueled its terrifying speed, and with a slight push off the ground, its entire body shot forward like a cannonball.Wylie clenched his teeth, his survival instincts screaming at him. He quickly activated the "jump" command in his mind, and the jet shoes on his feet, as if equipped with rockets, propelled him forward in an instant.Bam!"Reckkkk!"The Devourer missed its second strike, leaving nothing but shattered bricks and dust in its wake. It opened its mouth, emitting an enraged sound, vowing to kill the tiny creature.After activating his leap skill for the first time, Wylie immediately activated it a second time withouApocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 43: Bathing In A 5000-Liter Saltwater Pool.
Memphis, shrouded in a white glow, commanded, summoning another ice spear and hurling it down, taking advantage of the immobilized beast. The ice spear pierced E2's skull."Reckkkk... Kheezzee... Kheezzee Kheezzee...."Even with its head pierced, E2 couldn't be killed!Its body convulsed, the massive ice block cracking ominously, seemingly unable to withstand the immense force.Memphis watched as Lionel carried the unconscious Amanda away, saw Jarred hefting Kiley and Zeth as they fled, and noticed Wylie looping back to the car outside. A sense of relief started to settle in his heart.He waved his hand, sending ten beams of white light downward. Four of the beams continued to reinforce the ice block, while the remaining six beams followed the three ice spears embedded in the Devourer's back, forcefully penetrating its body."Reckk Kheezzee Kheezzee"The Devourer let out a hideous, broken scream. Its tooth-filled mouth spun, crushing and shattering the ice shards. But this block of ic
Realizing this, Wylie felt a bit embarrassed but, driven by youthful bravado, refused to back down. A treasure within reach—why not take it? Before Memphis could stop him, he had already bent down to pick it up.Memphis squinted at Wylie. If this boy made any sudden move, he wouldn’t hesitate to kill him immediately.After picking up the item, Wylie stood still for a few seconds, then blushed and scratched his head, saying:"The system said something, but I didn’t understand it."Seeing that Wylie hadn’t turned into a zombie, Memphis let o
After careful consideration, Winston could only sigh in helplessness. Thinking about the hundreds of thousands of zombies blocking the way, he had no means to deal with them.Memphis waited for everyone to digest the news before he slowly spoke:"The safe zone protected by the government is obviously our common goal. Myself included, everyone here shares this objective. But to achieve this goal, we must proceed step by step. Overcoming each obstacle ensures our survival."Hearing Memphis's words, the group's urgency was half-dissolved.Indeed, hastily leaving this place to search for the government’s safe zone would truly be a path to death.After a moment of hesitation, Winston asked:"Memphis, what are your plans?"Memphis calmly replied:"I want to strengthen the overall capabilities of our team first, accumulate food, modify vehicles, and stockpile fresh water. Only then can we have the capacity to explore the safe route to Harbor Line District. The main exploration route later wi
Memphis chose one skill book, one item card, and two experience crystals.Jarred took two skill books and one item card.As for the remaining two books, Lionel took one and Amanda took one.These were the results of their solo hunt, unrelated to Kiley’s group, and Memphis had no intention of sharing.After all, haha, Memphis always prioritized those closer and more familiar to him!“Ding. Active skill of second level: Acceleration! Skill attribute: Increases agility by 12 points. Skill activation: Consumes 4 stamina points. Skill duration: 15 seconds. Can be activated continuously. Note: The power and duration depend on the skill level.”Honestly, Memphis quite liked this skill; increasing agility by 12 points was more than half his current agility stat. But with Wylie’s contributions, almost risking his life, he deserved it.After all, in Memphis’s hands, Acceleration might remain a basic skill forever as he didn’t have spare skill points to enhance it. But in Wylie’s hands, he would
After thinking it through, Wylie firmly said:"I accept."Memphis smirked, tossing the skill book to Wylie, who scrambled to catch it, afraid it might fall and get damaged.With this skill, Wylie was like having a pair of jet boots that lasted for 15 seconds. The feeling of agility and freedom, it was finally back.Seeing Wylie grinning foolishly, Memphis's expression turned serious."Wylie. I don't have grand demands for loyalty. Most of the time, you can do what you want. But in critical decisions, I need you to absolutely comply, and in front of the team, you must fully support my views."Memphis laid out his demands clearly. For someone impulsive and young like Wylie, there was no need for subtlety; the clearer, the better.Wylie paused for a moment, then gave a bitter smile and said:"The way you talk, it's just like my old man. I used to hate these nagging words, but now, I wish I could hear more of them. Memphis, I'll listen to you."From his tone, Memphis knew he had secured a
