Watching Jarred leave with a few squad leaders and the weakest members, Memphis narrowed his eyes and looked towards the hill six kilometers away.
“If you're in such a hurry, then I'll delay until you lose your patience!”
He had already gauged the limits of the zombie horde; now it was time to probe the boundaries of the Lakeside government.
They hadn't attacked yet, which meant they were willing to negotiate to a certain extent. He wasn't sure how harsh their terms would be, but he absolutely wouldn't surrender his most important assets. At the very least, the functioning BMP-1 and the two BTR-60s were non-negotiable.

The convoy traveled for about 10 minutes before splitting into two directions. The BMP-1 armored vehicle and one BTR-60 turned right toward the testing area, while the remaining BTR-60 and the majority of the combat team continued toward Hope Town.At the testing site, Memphis nearly exhausted his mental energy interrogating the prisoners: “accidentally" killing two of them. In the end, he gained some proficiency in using and understanding the Soul Type, and then stopped.He left in a high-mobility jeep, while the BMP-1 and BTR-60 were, of course, stored at the warehouse.As they approached Hope Town, about 200 meters away, the jeep turned into a heavily gated villa. Outside the gate stood six Superhuman team members armed with rifles, and a few workers actively transported numerous evolved zombie corpses inside.This place was Big Black Dog's lair and also the facility where the newly transferred mutated peppers were cultivated.Memphis had assigned it to guard this rare herb. On the

"After all, they're just bandits, not a proper military force—how could they accomplish anything? The 200,000 rounds of ammo in the reserve must have been wasted..."Richard silently assessed the situation. He had been waiting there since 6 p.m., watching the defeated soldiers of Hope Town return from the front lines, all in a miserable state. Some teams were even drenched in blood, their spirits visibly broken, as if they were utterly exhausted.Hope Town was indeed impressive in post-apocalyptic reconstruction, likely thanks to the substantial resources of Renaissance County backing it. However, when it came to combat, they ultimately fell short.He put on a sympathetic expression and offered a few cursory words of encouragement before getting to the point:"Commander Jackman, I have an official document from the government. We sincerely hope to collaborate with you."It was already 8 p.m., and he should have completed his mission long ago, returning with the task results to Lakesid
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 443:
Once he lost this position, it would mean losing the benefits of a deputy head, and as a mere Level 5 Superhuman, what could he do to sustain his life, especially since he had a wife and two children still living in Lakeside? Who would they rely on...?In fact, the second condition was just a probing tactic. The government knew full well that forcing a bunch of bandits to immediately disarm and surrender was unlikely, and even if they succeeded in disarming them, they wouldn't be able to use them right away. What they wanted was to observe the attitude of these people while keeping a close eye on the leadership of Hope Town to exploit them more effectively.With the zombie horde at Renaissance advancing, Richard felt confident he could buy more time, at least until the end of tomorrow, without facing demands for an immediate response. In fact, they might not issue a summons until the zombie horde was dealt with here. Of course, with a gold mine like this, it had to be mined slowly...

After a while, Arlen Terry, Head of Communications, requested a face-to-face meeting.Holding the radio in his hand, Memphis greeted with a serious expression:"Chief Terry, we meet again.""Leader Jackman, a pleasure, a pleasure."After exchanging brief pleasantries, Arlen Terry got straight to the point:"How long do you expect it will take to defeat the horde of zombies over there?"Memphis pretended to consider for a moment before answering honestly:"If we have your support, two days, but if not, it'll take us three more days to take them down..."On the other end, Arlen Terry also paused for a moment, seemingly confirming something with someone. After a while, he cautiously asked:"Leader Jackman, I understand you still have a BTR-60 and four BTR-152 armored vehicles, as well as 12.7mm heavy

Ten minutes later, after nearly being suffocated, Memphis hurriedly turned his head to avoid the soft sensation and gasped for breath, coughing twice, pretending to be weak before slowly speaking:"Alright, is the job done?"Amanda let out a cold huff, lightly slapping Memphis on the cheek before scolding: “You don’t even care about whether I’m alive or dead and all you can think about is the job?"'Damn, aren't you alive and well?' Memphis cursed silently in his heart. From his backpack, he pulled out a large pile of experience crystals, potential crystals, skill books, item cards, 12.7mm shell casings, a few scattered rings—an assortment of random goods—tossing them all onto the table as he replied: “Feeling better now?"Amanda leaned forward to gather everything up, but after seeing Memphis’s pale, exhausted face, she gritted her teeth in frustration, throwing everything back on the table and scolding him: “Giving a woman gifts but being stingy like this? Can’t you be a little more

Seeing that she was about to lose her temper, Memphis had to back down and compromise, saying:“Once this is all over, I’ll appoint you as the leader of Hope Town, is that enough?”Amanda scoffed and shot him a disdainful look before saying sharply:“I don’t care for that title. This ruined town of yours is about to be flattened, and you’re looking for a scapegoat, aren’t you? I want something else!”Memphis felt a twinge of guilt hearing her tone, especially when he noticed her moist eyes—this woman was clearly in the mood. He swallowed hard and forced a smile:“You’re not planning to do anything here, are you? This is the meeting room…”Amanda leaned close to Memphis, her red lips whispering softly in his ear:“So what if it’s the meeting room? Isn’t that more exciting…”...!!!After much difficulty, Memphis finally managed to get Amanda to leave, giving him a brief moment of rest.He called it rest, but in reality, he was contemplating his next moves.The orders he gave Amanda to s

The Lakeside Bridge hasn’t been destroyed, and Lakeside County hasn’t been driven out, nor has communication been severed—these are the reasons it continues to serve a mysterious, vital role.Setting this matter aside, Memphis carefully gathered the documents and camera on the table, slinging his backpack over his shoulder before stepping out.Being a leader is truly grueling. It’s past 8 PM, and he still hasn’t eaten, showered, or removed the heavy equipment on his person. Worse still, another meeting awaits him, leaving little room for comfort.The only solace is that he’s earning plenty of contribution points, and those at the top always get a bigger share… Haha, today it’s instructions from the top, but in a while, it might even be assassins from Lakeside or tank shells fired from T90s—such fun.As he stepped out of the meeting room, Memphis spotted a group of people loading PG-2 HEAT shells and several anti-tank guns onto a military jeep. In addition, various equipment like baseb

The issues of food and storage were not simple either. Most of the fresh food they found had already gone bad, so they would soon have to rely solely on dry food and canned goods. It was essential to manage the food supplies well, not to release too much from storage while also not letting the residents starve—just enough to keep them half-full.Fresh food from the Grieving River wasn’t easy to come by either. Two people had gone missing while fishing, suspected to have been killed by mutated fish. Their main storage facility had also been attacked by a horde of rats led by a mutated level 11 rat, which destroyed over 200 pounds of food and injured two people. Lionel was currently building a fortified warehouse for storage.Mutated animals were starting to appear more frequently, with reports of mutated cats, dogs, goats, and pigs being spotted in the outskirts of towns. This would likely become a significant issue for them in the future.Today, they found a total of 57 survivors, mos
