Wallflower glanced at him with a light smile, shook his hand, and said:"Memphis, initiating a handshake with a lady isn't very gentlemanly."Memphis awkwardly scratched his head, not knowing much about such etiquette.With her business concluded, Wallflower brought up her friends' concerns:"Londyn and James want stable jobs that allow them to eat without too much hardship."Memphis was silent for a moment. He had almost forgotten about these two pampered young men
Zoran Rollins, sitting in the corner, let out a bitter smile.He had been one of the earliest followers of Memphis, participating in numerous battles from fighting the E1, setting traps to kill the E2, to eliminating the Three Guys gang. However, he wasn't chosen as a squad leader.Zoran was intelligent and the son of a top politician in SilverLining Solutions province, understanding Memphis's decision and vaguely sensing Memphis's future direction.Zoran had never shown loyalty to Memphis and leaned towards the government psychologically.Looking at the six squad leaders, all of whom had demonstrated loyalty and received benefits from Memphis, it was clear these were the people Memphis wanted to nurture, not someone like Zoran, who might leave in the future.Zoran felt conflicted, torn between feeling unrecognized for his contributions and understanding the reasons behind it.His background was pro-government, whereas Memphis might not align with the government in the future.Yet, he
Memphis's expression turned grim. This was the first time he saw zombies ignoring humans and moving on their own. Previously, zombies would stand idle when there were no humans around.He wanted to order a retreat back to the base immediately, but they were already here, and leaving empty-handed was not an option. On one hand, they needed the weapons to survive; on the other, these zombies were not gathering at the dormitory but heading towards the center of Meadowbrook Lane."Damn it, it's only the fifth day of mutations, and there are so many anomalies."Cursing under his breath, Memphis lowered the car window and tossed out an ice sphere. It exploded, freezing and shattering six or seven zombies around them.With a clear space, he opened the car door and jumped out, drawing his sword to cut down the surrounding zombies.From the three vehicles behind, squad leaders Gemma and Kiley also displayed their skills, creating a gap for their team members to disembark.Memphis shouted loudl
Memphis approached the F1 corpse, picking up a skill book, an item card, and an exp crystal."Ding! Active skill level two: Illusory Step. Skill attribute: Take 7 consecutive steps, each step adding 2 agility, the next 7 steps each reducing 2 agility. Skill activation: 2 stamina. Can be activated continuously. Skill power depends on skill level.""Ding! 24 exp!""Ding! Random item card. Confirm use?""No."Memphis threw all three items into his backpack, feeling a bit weary.The resources obtained from this F1 were far inferior to those from the F1 on the first day of mutation. Back then, that toy dropped a third-tier skill, but now it was just a measly second-tier one.However, it wasn't too bad. This second-tier Illusory Step skill was relatively useful and could be given as a reward to subordinates. Compared to the Acceleration skill that instantly provided 12 speed, it wasn't as advantageous, but its consumption was only 2 stamina, making it more suitable for prolonged battles com
However, it wasn't something he could worry about now. That was past. What mattered now was that these weapons were in his hands, giving him some defense for the future.He immediately ordered Michal:"Move all of this out.""Yes!"Michal's group, all grinning with excitement, entered the secret room and began packing the guns into fabric bags from their backpacks.Memphis had already prepared for this, knowing the scale of the arsenal from Dante, so they had plenty of fabric bags, enough to hold twice the amount of equipment.Memphis stepped forward and picked up a gun, an MP5A3, using 7.62mm ammunition, which was very compatible with most of the bullets he had. If it were the 9mm version, once the stored ammunition was exhausted, it would become useless.Each gun was put into sacks and carried out, rows of ammo boxes, crates of grenades, and sets of armor followed, emptying the secret warehouse room.After ensuring there was nothing else of value, Memphis turned and left.Michal and
Memphis cursed frantically and shouted to the team member next to him:"Shoot everything at the back!"The team members beside him, all four, did not dare to delay and simultaneously stuck their heads out of the window, unleashing the full firepower of their MP5A3s towards the rear.But the F2's figure was incredibly swift and ghostly. Under the dense rain of bullets, it did not get hit by a single one; instead, its speed only increased.Memphis's lips twitched. Though in danger, he maintained his composure, waiting for the F2 to come within 20 meters before rais
After giving instructions, Memphis headed straight to the lounge in the command building and sprawled out on the sofa. He only had 2 intelligence and 3 stamina left, his head buzzing with fatigue and his body exhausted.He couldn't help but close his eyes, relaxing his muscles, letting his physical attributes gradually recover.Half a minute later, two young, beautiful women in skimpy outfits entered, startling Memphis awake. He looked blankly as one moved behind him to massage his shoulders and neck, while the other quietly made tea, their demeanor extremely respectful and gentle.He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and ask:"What are you doing?"Wasn't it that no one without permission was allowed in this central building area?Upon hearing his question, the two women were startled and replied nervously:"Mr. Hester... Director Hester told us to... take care of you... said you don't like to interact..."Memphis was completely in the dark, since when did Lionel come up with this id
Even his intelligence capabilities couldn't uncover anything, doing so poorly would only make people wary.But Amanda could.She's not a leader of the faction, capable of doing dirty deeds that no one should know about. If discovered, Memphis would be less implicated.This covert surveillance made others extremely resentful. No one wanted a close companion who would betray them. If they found out who the mastermind was, there would definitely be a fierce reaction.The bad reputation, Amanda would bear for Memphis.Especially with his future direction, he needed people like Amanda in the background.Sensing the heavy breathing of the man beneath her, Amanda knew Memphis was tempted. She immediately licked his ear gently, teasingly saying:"Well, if it's not enough, I can provide you with things you desired before..."Memphis coughed, dodging her tongue, and asked seriously:"Have you discussed this with Lionel?"Amanda asked nonchalantly:"Can Lionel meet my demands?"Memphis nodded, r
