Memphis shifted gears, asking: "How’s the formation of the special operations team coming along?"

He intended to build an elite squad of about 30 top-tier Superhumans, individuals with exceptional strength, skill, and loyalty. This unit would consist of specialists from various fields, capable of operating with agility, trust, and cohesion, prepared to tackle any mission.

These members would receive exclusive training, and the selection process would be rigorous and continuous. They would also enjoy the highest privileges, including access to premium skills, equipment, and resources.

With the zombies growing stronger by the day, relying solely on military-grade weapons was no longer sustainable—ammo could run out, and enemies could adapt. But humans, given rest and training, could evolve and overcome. That’s why building this team was crucial.

Jarred’s spirits lifted slightly at the mention of the special team. He cracked his knuckles and said with determination,

    After traveling some distance, the Reflection clone barked curiously:"Woof woof...""Big Black Dog, aren’t you worried those rats will destroy your treasure while you’re gone? Woof!"In the darkness, the Big Black Dog’s eyes glowed an eerie green. It bared its teeth and let out a long, proud howl:"Awooooo...""I’ve already marked my territory all around. Any of those little rats who catch even a whiff of my scent will be scared to death. They wouldn’t dare come close. Woof!"Back in Hope Town, after instructing his team to step up patrols, Memphis returned to the joint meeting room to meet Richard.As Memphis had predicted, Lakeside’s forces were tied up on the main battlefield in Vienna. Despite their frustration with Hope Town, they had no choice but to grudgingly accept the proposal to temporarily let Memphis retain his military assets.Moreover, Hope Town had offered to send a "representative.” Jarred, to comply with the second of the three conditions previously set, leaving Lak

    Half an hour later, after Sarah’s face had flushed slightly and her breathing had quickened a bit, all the work was finally done.Memphis, satisfied, stuffed the last spoonful of rice into his mouth and casually said:“Sort it out and send it to the relevant people. Then you should get some rest.”Sarah bit her lip before nodding obediently:“Yes...”Memphis had planned to get another bowl of rice, but after thinking for a moment, he lazily asked:“How many lawyers, judges, and legal experts are in Hope Town?”The residents' survey was almost complete. Before the apocalypse, people had disclosed their previous professions, hoping to secure a better position. But in the post-apocalyptic world, jobs like farmers, workers, and drivers were more valuable because of their physical strength and usefulness in the field. Professions like office workers, teachers, and lawyers were less in demand, as their roles had lost significance in this new society.Those with weaker physical abilities, as

    Every contact required a different frequency—caution was paramount. One careless move could jeopardize everything. He aimed to create a new legal structure, drawing from the most effective system available—the one at Lakeside.The task he entrusted to Sarah involved crafting a legal code reflecting Hope Town’s identity, but it would also adhere to guidelines he provided. Memphis knew he had to present himself as knowledgeable and grounded in all matters, even without formal expertise. A leader with visible flaws would inevitably be exploited by those under him.And, of course, he couldn't entirely trust the economic law expert Sarah and her team. They were merely part of the judiciary, lacking the loyalty and contributions required to build an entire system. Lakeside’s government remained the legitimate legislative body, a source from which Hope Town could draw strength. Learning from one’s adversaries to grow stronger—this was the essence of leadership.Memphis's initial "humane" req

    "Damn it..." Mumbling under his breath, Memphis threw off the blanket and dashed into the bathroom. Ten minutes later, he'd finished his morning routine, fully dressed in his combat gear, and was seated at the kitchen table with an eager expression.As one's level increases, the need for sustenance after expending potential points in battle also rises. Even though Memphis hadn’t fought last night, he was still ravenous, and all he wanted now was to satisfy his rumbling stomach.And that was where Shaina came in. She carefully placed the dishes on the table—three in total, each one generously portioned and looking delicious."What’s this?" Memphis asked, pointing to a dish of buns while swallowing a mouthful of saliva. Across from him, Shaina, who exuded her usual melancholy aura, softly replied:"It’s a... mysterious bao bun.""Mysterious bao bun... Ugh..." Memphis cursed silently to himself. He picked up the massive bun from the plate. It felt soft and moist to the touch, with a del

I’ve got a fun idea for it."Memphis's mouth twitched in irritation. He let out a cold snort."Next time, change locations. How could you not smel

    Humanity had a full night’s rest, and their attacks continued without pause. After seven or eight waves of system strikes, over 3,000 zombies were eliminated. The Superhuman team immediately retreated to receive recovery support from healing abilities, while the gun-wielding group quickly advanced, unleashing a metal storm upon the remaining zombies.On day 16 of the apocalypse, even if someone had trained a pig, that pig would know how to fire a gun by now, let alone humans. Everyone here had already fired hundreds of rounds, and their shooting accuracy had become quite reliable. As long as they weren’t as hopelessly incompetent as Memphis, on average, every three bullets fired would result in a zombie’s head being blown apart.The downpour of bullets caused zombies to fall like harvested wheat. In just a few minutes, over 3,000 zombies had been destroyed. This was even with Memphis ordering the use of CKC rifles, which only fired at a rate of 30 rounds per minute. Had they used AK47

    Memphis could easily use 10 artillery shells to destroy the defenses of that hill, but each shell used was a loss. He wasn’t willing to spend even 5 shells, let alone 10. Of course, if after this strike the big-headed creature still dared to attack humanity, it would be blasted to death with more artillery fire.Moreover, he sensed that this monster wasn’t as "reckless" as the level 24 M2 at the Three Boulevard battlefield. This zombie was in deep hesitation, afflicted by the "disease" of the level 25 Strength Form that once guarded Pinecrest supermarket. That was the "fear of breaking what it’s protecting."It feared something might destroy the precious treasure it was guarding.From the beginning to now, it had only fiercely defended. From when Cormac was alive until now, it had never left its lair. It didn’t send its entire army to fight but instead sent waves, especially keeping its most elite zombies near the cave. It was obsessed with its treasure to the point of clouding its ju

    At 9 AM on the 17th day after the apocalypse, on the battlefield of Sunny Hills, a full 120 minutes of fierce combat had passed, and both sides finally ceased fire, retreating to rest and regroup.Standing on top of an armored vehicle, looking towards the distant hill, Memphis’s gaze was calm and unwavering.He had blindly stumbled his way to victory in battles against two Devouring Types. The battle at Pinecrest Supermarket against a level 25 P2 had almost killed him, teaching him a harsh lesson. He had won at the battlefield of Three Avenues, but at a great cost—suffering significant injuries and heavy losses in manpower.In this battle, however, he still had half of his potential points left, not a single drop of his blood had been spilled, and fewer than 30 of his team members had perished."It’s really been exhausting..."The failure of the Manipulation Type M2 at level 27 had taught him many things. Never wait passively in any situation, and never consider anything irreplaceable

    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

    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

    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

    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,

    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

    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

    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

    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.“
