After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Doesn’t Mind Her

"He’s a Water Element Superpower User,

I heard he used to be a ride-share driver,

but Dawn Donovan claims he graduated from a top university, has a Superpower, and all that,

and she’s basically manufactured this image of him as some kind of elite official."

It wasn’t that Leo Hale looked down on being a ride-share driver.

He just thought it was a bit much for someone whose profession didn’t match their new role at all.

"A top university?"

Nina Jacobs was surprised people were still competing over academic credentials at a time like this.

But then again, thinking back to her past life, the factional struggles in the City D Base were indeed severe.

’So it all started this early?’

"By the way, what about Myra Lawson?"

Nina Jacobs asked.

"Myra Lawson is a force of nature, but she only focuses on killing zombies and securing supplies,

strictly speaking, she belongs to the military officer faction,

and she never gets involved in the infighting among the civil officials."

Leo Hale simply used terms from ancient history to describe the situation.

Nina Jacobs nodded. Leo Hale’s description was very accurate.

That was exactly how Myra Lawson had been in her past life.

Early on, she had reclaimed a huge amount of supplies for the new base.

Most of the people under her command were experts. Things went very well for her at first, but most of them ended up sacrificing themselves later.

Some, like Chester Pearson, died from absorbing too many Crystal Cores in a desperate attempt to increase their strength.

Others were devoured by more advanced, mutated zombies.

Especially after Ian Chandler died, Myra Lawson lost all her former vitality.

The last time Nina Jacobs saw her, her hair was streaked with gray, and the light in her eyes had gone out.

’I wonder if things at the City D Base can be better in this life, with Ian Chandler still around?’

"I’ve said so much, and it’s only made you all worry,

The tasks that Lawson assigned a few days ago were all completed under my supervision,

I don’t believe my abilities are inferior to anyone else’s. I’ll keep fighting for this position, so don’t worry."

Daniel Hale patted his son, Leo Hale, on the shoulder.

In truth, he despised the idea of rising through the ranks by relying on connections. He hadn’t been idle during this time and believed that someone would eventually recognize his efforts.

"That’s right. At the end of the day, our family is still together,

so you two shouldn’t put too much pressure on yourselves."

Vera Coleman said comfortingly.

Having witnessed so much suffering in the shelter these past few days, she now felt very fortunate and content.

"Exactly. I brought back a lot of food this time,

so let’s all eat something first. Maybe everything will turn out for the best."

After Nina Jacobs finished speaking, Leo Hale realized he was hungry too.

He’d only had a bowl of porridge for lunch before rushing off to find Chester Pearson.

Now, he was starving.

Vera Coleman tore open the packaging of a braised goose, sliced it, and arranged it on a plate. The aroma instantly filled the room.

Combined with ready-to-eat dishes like braised beef and self-heating hot pots, everyone’s appetite was piqued.

In the afternoon, Ian Chandler brought an unexpected person to see Nina Jacobs.

"Nina, long time no see!

I heard you caused another sensation today,

it’s just a shame I wasn’t there to see it."

Shirley Lucas peeked out from behind Ian Chandler, then immediately darted inside upon seeing Nina Jacobs.

"...What are you doing here?"

Nina Jacobs hadn’t expected Shirley Lucas to be with Ian Chandler.

’It seems Shirley Lucas might be one of Myra Lawson’s people too.’

"We haven’t seen each other in so many days, haven’t you missed me?

I thought we were best friends who could talk about anything."

Shirley Lucas replied in a feminine voice, and Leo Hale’s eyes widened beside them.

’That smooth?’

"Big Sis, I learned a new Skill."

Seeing Nina Jacobs, Ian Chandler didn’t complain about her leaving without a word. Instead, he excitedly showed off his new Skill.

With a wave of Ian Chandler’s hand, a ripple seemed to pass through the air, and a cardboard box in the distance was instantly split in two.

"That’s amazing. Did you figure that out yourself?"

A look of astonishment flashed in Nina Jacobs’s eyes.

’This is the Space Blade, something that only appeared late in the second year of the apocalypse in my past life!’

Ian Chandler nodded. "You were the one who taught me, Big Sis."

"When did I teach you that?"

Nina Jacobs was certain she had never mentioned anything about the Space Blade.
