Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 547:
Seeing Memphis approach, several combat squad members and team leaders stood to attention and saluted according to protocol. Memphis returned the salute with equal seriousness, then bent down to inspect the bodies of the two creatures below, and asked Gemma in a low voice:"Report."“Yes, sir…”According to her report, Memphis gradually pieced together the sequence of events.This team had been carrying out a mission in the Iron Stone Township area. While clearing a mini-mart, they encountered this P2-level 21 zombie. There weren’t too many zombies around it, and none showed signs of being controlled or organized, so they had little trouble taking down the creatures.Gemma, as a high-ranking officer, had received orders the previous night. All zombies above level 20 were to be dissected to search for suspicious traits, particularly among the Power type. They were to retrieve mana stones and also check for signs of Manipulate development.This P2-level 21 zombie faced the same treatmen

The five people below snapped out of their daze upon hearing this, each struggling to suppress the tremors and fear rising within, gasping as if they were drowning. Only after half a minute of recollecting themselves and calming down did they regain a semblance of lifeEach of them cast a horrified glance at Memphis seated in the main chair before quickly averting their eyes to look at the documents on the table, the power socket on the wall, the patterns on the opposite chair – anything to avoid meeting his gaze, while inwardly trembling from the pressure he emitted"This leader Jackman..."The gray-haired old man in the front row murmured, expressing his thoughts. He was the most visibly unsettled, yet also the quickest to recover. After all, he was seasoned, having faced numerous storms in his life, he might be afraid, but he would not panic. Taking a deep breath, he spoke solemnly"Memphis, I am Sherwin Gibbs...""Call me Leader Jackman."Memphis waved off the old man's words indi

The documents Memphis handed over were examined by each of the five in turn, and their faces quickly turned ashenThis was precisely the real situation of the Lakeside base, including information gathered yesterday and fresh updates from this morning's report. Of course, it contained both facts and rumors, truths and speculations, all things they recognized immediately. But, altogether, it was indeed the actual situation.Memphis lifted his cup of tea, took a sip, and immediately spat it out, exclaiming loudly,“How did this tea suddenly become so terrible? Someone, bring me fresh tea—absolutely no low-quality ingredients, it must be Renaissance tea.”"Your governance is so secure here, your laws so strict, surely, the tea you brew must be ‘delicious,’" Memphis said.This was precisely the message Memphis intended to convey, and Sherwin got it loud and clear.A staff member quickly came in to make fresh tea, and soon, a fragrant aroma filled the room. Despite using the same water and

The room was positioned right in the heart of Sunny Hills, as if at the center of a sphere, getting to this room from outside would require digging down at least 300 meters.Memphis placed the case containing the Level 24 M2 on a high earthen platform, then meticulously arranged explosives around it, totaling 200 pounds of black powder.One PG-9V round they typically used contained around 0.322 kg of Hexogen explosive—less than a pound, yet powerful enough to destroy a tank.Though Hexogen was stronger than black powder, and the structure of the artillery shell was optimized to penetrate armor, 200 kg of black powder could still demolish several tanks, more than enough to kill anything the size of a tank.With numerous gasoline bombs and gas canisters scattered around and the confined space, if anything ignited, the shockwave would compress and concentrate in one place.Even the ancestor of a Level 32 Eat-3 wouldn’t survive here, let alone a regular Eat-3.Memphis opened the case, rev

When Memphis entered, the twenty or so people in the room stopped their discussions and rose to greet him in unison."Chief.""Chief."Memphis walked toward the main seat, each step steady, then sat down. He took in the varied expressions from each person—excitement, anticipation, nervousness, admiration, reverence... A complex web of emotions that stirred a sense of profound reflection within him.Hope Township had never been as strong as it was now. Each person here was at least level 13, equal to Memphis when he first faced the battles on the three boule

Memphis scanned the room, his ears catching the vibrant, excited cheers of nearly a thousand people outside the door. He finally understood the strange restlessness in the room."Really feel like casting a Soul Suppression combined with Dominance Aura on this lazy bunch…" he thought with frustration, tempted to lash out. Instead, he waved his hand dismissively."Alright, we’ll discuss other issues later. Thank you for your hard work, the meeting is now—""Understood!""Yes, sir!"Before he even finished, Wylie shouted his response, rushing for the door, followed by Jarred Lawton, Allan Powell, Osiris Byrne, Maggie Mark, Travis Tate… Within seconds, only a handful of people remained."A bunch of disorderly, lazy fools, hooligans, no discipline at all…" Memphis cursed under his breath. Important matters were still pending, and new tasks hadn’t even been assigned, yet these people already thought about entertainment. He’d baited them with a comment, and no one had stepped forward with an

Throwing the matter to the back of his mind, he picked up the next document."Devouring Type advancing to level 33, truly fast… It’s been lured another 4 kilometers north, currently about 9km from the zombie hill and 7km from Crimson Flame Town’s center...""E3’s lifestyle traits include… innate ability traits include… It reacts even to inanimate objects approaching nearby, like drones...""The canned food factory on the outskirts of Crimson Flame Town has had all surrounding zombies cleared, and the production lines are mostly preserved."Wylie’s report was very thorough and detailed. Mm, at the current location, unless the Devouring Type misses home and wants to suddenly "visit.” no matter what they do around Crimson Flame Town, it’ll be hard for it to detect anything.This still requires close monitoring of E3’s movements, once the zombie horde in Sunny Hills successfully gathers, they’ll lead that creature there, letting the zombies and the creature fight each other, constantly we

In the middle of the stage, six dancers, scantily clad, performed eye-catching routines, their moves both frenzied and provocative. A somewhat well-known singer, holding a microphone, ran around the stage interacting with the raised hands below:"Come on, everyone, let's shout together...""Whoo whoo whoo...""Ohhh ohhh ohhh...""Go, go, go...""Xena White, I love you..."The crowd, fueled by the singer’s rallying, seemed to be in a frenzy. Hundreds of voices rose in wild cheers, uniting in an ecstatic outburst. People even threw ration vouchers, dried food, and turbo boots onto the stage as support. A black two-piece bra was tossed on stage, sending the atmosphere into an explosive, chaotic fervor."Whoo whoo whoo...""More drinks!""Aaaaah...""Hey hey..."Sound, lights, visuals, colors, scents, touch, ambiance, connection, effects—endorphins, adrenaline, testosterone, oxytocin—all of it melded into a roaring symphony of human experience.Nearly a thousand people were now releasing

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
Chapter 761:
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
Chapter 760:
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,
Chapter 758:
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
Chapter 757:
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…”“
Chapter 756:
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
Chapter 755:
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
Chapter 754:
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.“
