Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 723:
The sound of water splashing echoed inside a fashion store turned makeshift hideout. While Rosa bathed in the store's restroom, Memphis wasn’t idle. He laid out a spread of food on the table and began eating with gusto.His recovery stat, bolstered by the meat of a level-18 mutant fish, had reached a solid 45 points. At this rate, he was recovering 1 stamina and 1 intelligence every 2 minutes, and if he relaxed and closed his eyes, it would improve to 1 recovery every 40 seconds. This was an incredible rate."If only my recovery stat hit 60 points.” he muttered between bites. "I could sustain mid-level combat indefinitely without worrying about running out of potential. I wonder what kind of recovery-class skill my profession will unlock..."As Memphis continued
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 724:
After ten minutes of observation, his brows furrowed deeply.There wasn’t a single rat or cockroach in sight."Could this really be the target...?"He stepped back about a kilometer and spoke into his radio in a low voice: “Deploy drones to the intersection of LB1 and HG Streets."Following his command, three drones buzzed into the air. Through the radio, Memphis issued several instructions before leaping backward, retreating further.No sane person would provoke a hornet’s nest and remain nearby to get stung.Well, that wasn’t entirely true. At Hope Town, there was that one

When direct questioning didn’t work, she resorted to provoking Memphis, needling him with a statement so absurd it would compel him to counter with his knowledge.Through this, she could glean more about the force that had terrorized the Mộc family for the past 24 days.She assumed Memphis was trying to draw her attention with his aloof and cool demeanor. Thus, she struck at his apparent need to showcase himself, creating an opportunity for him to display his knowledge while she quietly absorbed it for free.For the privileged, wealth isn’t solely about material possessions or money. Material wealth is fleeting, intellectual wealth endures. Only by wielding knowledge effectively can successive generations maintain their social standing and prosperity.

Before them, waves of frost and tiny snowflakes formed and solidified rapidly. The external spiritual force clashing against the Ice Armor caused it to tremble faintly, depleting four points of Memphis's intelligence. Nevertheless, it absorbed the attack entirely.The assault wasn’t particularly strong, even if it had landed, it wouldn’t have caused significant harm.A few seconds later, the mournful wailing finally reached their location. Memphis, long accustomed to the eerie and deranged cadence of such sounds, remained unfazed. Rosa, on the other hand, turned pale as a sheet, her eyes wide with terror as if she had encountered the most horrifying thing in her life.The attack subsided after about two seconds. The Ice Armor dissipated, leaving behind faint trac

The northernmost region of Renaissance County, Cloudy Town.Allan stood on an elevated vantage point in Zone C, his eyes fixed on Zone B, his expression growing heavier by the moment.The boundary wall had thinned to just 33 meters—a reduction of 8 meters after a single day of rest. If this trend continued, in four days, the zombies from Dragon Light County would breach the defenses.Not that four days were needed; the zombies were already infiltrating. In just two hours since morning, Allan had tallied 1,200 zombies successfully crossing the wall, including one terrifying F2 Level 29 mutant. Across all of Renaissance, no one could stand against such a creature—it would kill anyone who dared confront it in an instant.At that moment, the radio clipped to his waist crackled with a signal."Captain, we've lost contact with Anton Powell's team."Hearing this, Allan's pupils contracted sharply.Anton, eager to redeem himself for his prior misdeeds involving embezzlement, had volunteered t

Choosing to personally lead a search mission contradicted the stability Allan typically embodied. Moreover, it directly opposed the responsibilities entrusted to him by higher-ups. Outwardly composed, Allan was undoubtedly battling a storm within.As the highest-ranking officer, Allan was responsible for the safety and welfare of nearly 100 personnel. Stepping away from his position to focus on a less critical mission jeopardized the overarching priorities of the group. This choice signaled instability.Balancing the weight of six lives against nearly a hundred, the disparity in importance was stark. Allan might argue that the hundred were safe while the six faced immediate danger, but why not delegate the task? What if Anton wasn’t among the missing?This inconsistenc
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 729:
Memphis's decision to appoint Gemma as captain of the third company, aside from assigning a woman to lead other women, stemmed primarily from her deep conviction in protecting her subordinates and her unwavering hatred of zombies.Among the senior officers, Gemma was unique. While she had not lost family to the war, she had endured the most profound psychological impact from witnessing its horrors.She hated zombies more than anyone else and loathed her own perceived weakness even more. If only her blade had been sharper, her strike more precise, that F2 Level 21 zombie might have died, and no one else would have had to. She sought revenge for Raymond Lee, Samir, and everyone else who had fallen.Memphis valued this mindset above all else. He needed Gemma to instill the same resolve and hatred for zombies in the women under her command.Women, by nature, are often more emotionally vulnerable. Whether they like it or not, they tend to cry more easily, feel more hurt, spiral into despai
Apocalypse System: How To Destroy My Resources? Chapter 730:
Memphis publicly punished corruption, a perfect opportunity to cut down a commander or at least suppress credibility. Yet Memphis refrained, affirming his commitment to protection.Memphis appointed two battalion leaders instead of three, willingly sidelining Wylie to elevate Lazarus, granting him command in an official capacity. He was not left as a mere figurehead—this was a testament to sincerity.Memphis entrusted Jarred with handling the Lakeside issue, while Lazarus and Jarred jointly led the military security division, affirming a promise of high-level consultation rights.Most importantly, Memphis allowed Lazarus to lead the strongest forces, the most seasoned and critical core team, through Whiskey County, where Lakeside forces were stationed—a profound gesture of trust.Even the central forces were entrusted to Lazarus, stationed at the lion’s mouth. With such faith, who could question the authenticity of his deputy commander position?Ten minutes after the drones took fligh

In weather like this, the ultimate indulgence was a warm bath followed by a satisfying meal.Thus, Memphis was soaking in a bathtub, two yellow rubber ducks floating around for amusement, grumbling about why the clouds were obscuring the moon."Is there a skill to blow the clouds away? Probably that brat Riddle over at Lakeside could manage it. Sigh, maybe Wendy Duffy from our side could too, but he's stationed at Iron Stone Town. If he were here, I’d make him blow until the sky was clear."With the clouds dimming the moonlight, the "charging time" for his Reflection skill was halved. At this rate, the next time he summoned his clone, that cold and sarcastic doppelgänger would undoubtedly nag his ears off.After some mindless musings, Memphis finally finished his bath. He donned his familiar cotton attire and wandered into the kitchen. Grabbing something off the counter, he popped it into his mouth and mumbled through chewing: “Hmm, this is good. What is it?"Beside him, Shaina Palmer

Wylie had completed his treatment with the medical team. His physical condition had fully recovered from its previous exhaustion. He now sat idly with the ninth-tier skill scroll Innate Deformity in his hands.Memphis was exceedingly generous with his subordinates.Even the top-tier resources in Hope Town were prioritized for his men without hesitation. The skill scroll was priced at only 4,000 merit points—an absolute bargain. Any shortfall could be deferred as credit, a clear testament to how much Memphis valued talent."Damn it..."Wylie gritted his teeth and swallowed his grievances, shoving the accursed scroll into his chest.Recently, some people had been whispering that he was an idiot. If he actually learned this skill, then his idiocy would be beyond question.Finding some poor fool willing to listen and learn this abomination seemed like the best plan.Ten minutes later, after Arvid Watson departed, Sarah, Adolph, and Damon arrived one after another, forcing Memphis to endur

With his intelligence restored and bolstered by the "mandatory clarity" effect from the Level 4 Ring of Imposition, Wylie finally managed to escape his dazed state. Without hesitation, he activated the restorative skill of the Level 3 Bracelet of Reimbursement, recovering 50% of the stamina he had spent in the past three seconds.This bracelet was Memphis’s equipment, opened by Bridget, but apparently, he hadn’t used it himself yet.Thanks to Hope Town’s abundant resource reserves, Wylie barely suffered any lasting damage and even recovered quickly during combat. Such resource utilization was almost impossible for a lone adventurer to experience.After narrowly avoiding potential unconsciousness due to depleted potential, Wylie still coughed up another mouthful of blood before grinning and saying: “Jackman the Great… Leader, there’s a dropped skill over there. I saw it clearly—it’s definitely a ninth-tier skill."Memphis couldn’t help but laugh in disbelief. He lightly kicked the boy’

Memphis stood on the roof of a five-story building, watching Wylie's devastating attack. Even someone as powerful as him couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine."This skill is too bizarre, too terrifying..."System-based skills, extraordinary in power, often exhibited effects beyond common sense. Yet, the majority of these supernatural abilities adhered to certain fundamental principles, one of which was the law of conservation of energy.This law states: The total energy within an isolated system remains constant over time.In simpler terms, energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change form or transfer between entities.In essence, energy is eternal, unchanging no matter how far it travels or how long it lasts.However...When any skill is released, the energy it expels immediately interacts with the surrounding environment and cannot remain "eternal" as theory suggests.For a skill to travel 800 meters, it must convert its supernatural "damage energy" into "k

The Manipulation-Type mutant in the maternity clinic displayed heightened vigilance. Even inanimate objects like drones entering the clinic's range could trigger its frenzy. However, if the disturbance remained outside the clinic, the creature was completely oblivious.Its "mother" had long since died, leaving it without the guidance needed for survival and no one to detect and repel threats during its growth. Due to an unknown mutation, it had lost many survival instincts, rendering it immobile as it awaited the chance to be "born."Capitalizing on this weakness, over a ton of gasoline bombs and dozens of household gas cylinders had been arranged around the clinic by Dagger team members, ensuring a fiery display upon detonation.Additionally, the three roads leading to the

After Adolph finished, Memphis couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. He could no longer view this old man as ordinary. All he could see now was a sly fox.Adolph was determined to exploit the bait of "fame and fortune" to the fullest, employing capitalist tactics to strangle the proletariat while leveraging existing adversity to gain advantages. And the greatest beneficiary of this would be none other than the Sellers family.Why? Because only the Sellers had earned enough of Memphis’s trust, along with the ability, influence, and resolve to execute such a plan."Building something from nothing, huh?""The Sellers currently have nothing to implement this plan. The apocalypse has destroyed all their assets. All that remains are the people. What he’s proposing is like counting chickens before they hatch, grasping at the moon’s reflection in water—there are no guarantees.""But if they wish to preserve their family and thrive in this apocalypse, they have no choice but to star
Chapter 747:
"The first factor is trust. Those who do not trust our organization are the ones who still hold faith in the government. They believe that the government will soon send troops for rescue, and this belief stems from long-standing pre-apocalyptic ideals. Therefore, the key is to alter this outdated trust.”"We will implement two parallel actions.”"First, we build the residents' trust in Hope Town. This foundation is already laid by the life-saving efforts, and the legal framework is established through the Hope Code. As long as we continue to uphold order and stability, avoiding any actions that harm or threaten the people, Hope Town will naturally gain gradual acceptance.”"Second, we must eliminate the residents' trust in the government. Our first step is to locate and secure all FM radio stations, ensuring that no resident can access external information. Then, we use Hope Town's radio transmitter to disseminate fake government messages. The content should repeatedly urge residents

The Sellers family were among the elite of the old society. Just gauging from Sarah's abilities alone, it was clear how capable the core members of this lineage were. Once "licensed to operate.” their productivity would far exceed expectations. Especially now that they had pledged to develop and remain committed to the organization, the benefits they could bring would stand in stark contrast to the chaotic and unreliable nature of gangs or ragtag alliances.The second reason Memphis had allowed them this opportunity was his desire to diversify Hope Town's social structure—or more precisely, to conduct a "social experiment" and observe how Hope Town would react to the introduction of such an anomalous element. Would it improve, or deteriorate?This data would be crucial for properly building a sustainable organization in the future.Perhaps it was time to complicate the situation. By manufacturing manageable conflicts, multiple factions would deplete their resources while he positioned
Chapter 745:
If Memphis were a vile person, and Hope Town was a cesspool of corruption, there would have been no need for Sarah to openly declare their connection. A quiet escape plan would have sufficed. Sarah’s immediate transparency indicated her unwillingness to conceal anything and her clear desire to align herself with Memphis.She wanted more than just a foothold in Hope Town. She sought influence and power, no longer content to remain merely a legal advisor. For this, she was willing to risk breaking the rules, even knowing the law better than anyone."A place with people will inevitably have conflicts. Violating principles like this may be wrong in theory, but it feels right emotionally."Memphis couldn’t stop others from harboring personal agendas, nor could he prev
