Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 558:
"Ding! Level 3 Thief's Gloves. Attribute: +3 Agility. Enchantment: Borrowed Strike. Activating this skill randomly steals one enchantment skill from an item equipped by a targeted foe. Skill cooldown: 8 hours per use. Maximum accumulation: 3 uses."Memphis slipped on the black gloves on his left hand, admiring them with a sense of satisfaction.The “Thief” class was truly fascinating, all its abilities required stealing to function. Imagine using an 8-hour cooldown to steal a 24-hour skill—what a thrill! And to steal an opponent’s weapon skill so they’re left unable to use it mid-attack would certainly disrupt their strategy.“Brigitte’s definitely my lucky charm. Her luck at drawing high-quality items surpasses everyone else in Hope Town…”If she hadn’t drawn five Level 2 items in a row, clearly hitting a limit, he would’ve been tempted to let her keep drawing.With 15 cards left on the table, just as Memphis was about to have Brigitte try her luck again, Sarah’s eyes sparkled as she

The chance of this item ever showing up again was probably random too, he might never see something like it again for the rest of his life…“Gotta find someone to test this thing…”As the thought arose, he began discreetly glancing at the four women in the room.Bridget? Difficult. She was too clever, too wary, there was no way she’d agree to test something like this.Brigitte? Also difficult. She was still reeling from the effects of the Level 4 Gluttonous Dungeon, her face was pale, and she’d be hard to convince to try anything new.Shaina… sigh, with her eternally sorrowful expression, he felt a bit of reluctance there.Sarah… why was she still smiling so smugly? Was she in a daze or what?"The more educated, the more successful, the more prestigious—the easier they are to deceive, especially at unexpected moments… She’s highly educated, confident in herself, always certain she can’t be fooled. Perfect target…”To deceive someone, you first had to understand them. Memphis was a sea

However, it was still a powerful tool, ideal for solo confrontations with high-level zombies, sparing the user from constantly dodging attacks. Its most effective use might be against Explosion Types, which could detonate with the slightest disturbance. But finding the correct color and timing was definitely a challenge.He quickly snatched the bottle back, giving it a few shakes. Outside, it continued to display a mix of colors, and inside he could hear a faint liquid sloshing, though the bottle appeared empty. The hidden potency was as unpredictable as its colors, there was no telling what effect might follow another drink."Getting ready to die..."Memphis was a cautious man, partly due to his deep curiosity about everything—an urge that often led to dangerous situations. But since Sarah had survived her drink, he doubted he’d have worse luck than she did.After a few more shakes, the colors outside shifted to a sparkling dark purple, and he tilted his head back and drank without h

"This was his deserved karma" Neglecting others, even deceiving them into wading through the waters first so he could feel his way behind…now he faced disaster alone. Why expect others to care in return?"But ambition is human nature, and selfishness is inherent" The likes of Sarah had ambitions for higher status, and he had ambitions for more care and affection "wanting to take without giving". Why?"Because he was simply an ordinary person""An ordinary person with a selfish heart, full of contradictions, who suddenly found himself in an extraordinary position"

The banks of the Grieving River, Lakeside District Survivor Base, Military Complex, Third Battalion Command Center, Office of the Fourth Deputy Commander.A battalion typically consisted of one commander and three deputy commanders, but the Third Battalion was the only one to have a fourth deputy, newly appointed just three days ago.Everyone whispered that this new deputy commander was the most beautiful woman in the entire military. This was a point of contention, as Commander Sears still had many loyal "fans." However, to call her the most welcomed and beloved? That was indisputable.Commander Sears was notoriously hard to approach, while the new deputy was far more personable. Anyone suffering from illusions or dizziness could head to the Third Battalion to listen to her sing—a balm that dispelled their symptoms to some extent.Listening to her sing was the excuse, but gazing at her unparalleled beauty was the true reason. Who wouldn’t enjoy admiring such a stunning woman? Though
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 563:
Wallflower let out a cold, angry snort. Abusing power for personal gain, especially during an apocalyptic crisis, was the epitome of corruption. However, she kept her composure, simply nodding and gesturing toward the table as she responded nonchalantly:"I understand. I’ll make the necessary arrangements. Thank you, Chief Massey, for your time and effort."Jedd didn’t press further. Confident that Wallflower understood his message, he placed the invitation on the edge of the table, bowed slightly, and turned to leave.If this deputy commander didn’t show up, he would simply be sent again with another invitation. No need to press the matter now. But if she did attend, well...Perhaps he could enjoy some side benefits. He’d done so before.But someone as stunningly beautiful and graceful as Wallflower was a rare find—a memory that would undoubtedly leave a lasting impression. He was already looking forward to it.After Willa escorted Jedd out, Wallflower picked up Percy’s red invitatio

According to the base’s rules, the central zone was always brightly lit with electric lights, ensuring the safety and security of its organizational headquarters. Naturally, no one objected to this arrangement—at least, the upper echelons of the base hadn’t received a single letter of protest, not even one.Percy’s private estate sprawled across 3,600 square meters. Before the apocalypse, he dared not flaunt such extravagance, and his father didn’t own a mansion vast enough to allow such indulgence. But after the apocalypse, property had lost much of its value, and no one dared question where Percy chose to live. He had claimed this estate as his personal residence.The estate was brightly illuminated, and a dozen beautiful women frolicked passionately in the swimming pool. Around them, more than ten men pursued them, entirely naked. Couples tangled freely, their bare flesh rubbing together, engaging in unabashedly intimate acts.Scenes of indulgence abounded: one man attended by seve
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 565:
Murphy, Percy’s father, was neither a fool, a reckless man, nor a madman. Neither were the four battalion commanders or the thirteen vice-commanders under his command. At Lakeside Base, fools, reckless individuals, and madmen were either weaklings or under constant surveillance, which was why Percy had never feared anyone.Except for one glaring exception: the man currently floating above him.Verne was both a fool and the epitome of recklessness and madness, completely unchecked by anyone.Who would dare to restrain him?Rumors swirled within the military that when Riddle unleashed his fury, his power rivaled even Fergus’s. Though this claim remained unverified, no baseless rumor could persist for so long without merit.This was the person Percy feared most—someone he avoided at all costs. Percy had never initiated even the slightest contact with Verne. After all, who knew when the man might suddenly lose control and wreak havoc?And yet, here he was. What had provoked Verne’s fury t

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…”“

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.“
