After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 113

Chapter 113: Chapter 113: It Was Only a Dream

Nina Jacobs nodded.

She had just come up with a plan to deal with Kevin Holden and his men, but she hadn’t expected Wayne Abbott to step in and help.

"Thanks for that."

Nina Jacobs followed Wayne Abbott to a deserted window.

Wayne Abbott’s companions stood at a distance, as if afraid of scaring her.

"It was nothing. The medicine you sold me before worked wonders.

My wife hasn’t coughed in days."

Wayne Abbott’s expression softened considerably.

"Did you need something from me? If so, spit it out."

Seemingly surprised by how direct Nina was, Wayne Abbott froze for a moment before quickly speaking:

"I wanted to ask how many supplies you have left."

"Don’t get the wrong idea. We just heard some rumors recently,

and we want to buy a large amount of your supplies in one go. We’ll pay whatever it costs in Crystal Cores."

"Rumors?"

"Yeah. We heard the shelter might stop providing free meals,

and supplies will definitely be harder to get then."

Wayne Abbott frowned, observing Nina’s expression.

He knew that after telling her this, Nina might refuse to sell him any more supplies or even jack up the price on the spot, but he didn’t want to hide it from her.

He wanted a long-term partnership.

Besides, Nina’s medicine had cured the lung ailment that had plagued his wife for over a month.

"Alright. How much do you want?"

He never expected Nina to agree so readily.

Wayne Abbott was stunned for a second, then quickly waved his companions over. A young woman hurried toward them.

"Abbott, did she agree?"

the woman asked.

Wayne Abbott nodded. "See how many Crystal Cores we have left. Let’s trade everything we can."

The woman was overjoyed and pulled out a canvas bag.

The canvas bag contained all the Crystal Cores they had collected over the past few days.

Although it was only half-full, the amount was still considerable.

"Tell me what you want to trade for, and I’ll get it for you."

Nina Jacobs counted the Crystal Cores. Among them were over a dozen Mutated Fire Element Crystal Cores.

After discussing it, Wayne Abbott and the woman asked for some compressed biscuits, canned meat, as well as some flour and rice.

To their surprise, Nina showed no intention of raising her prices. She simply pulled the corresponding items from her space and gave them to them.

[Host has completed a supply trade. "The Doomsday Supplier" title has been triggered. 310 System Experience Points awarded.]

The system notification greatly improved Nina Jacobs’s mood.

"Kevin Holden and his men are Superpower Users who were assimilated into our forces.

If you run into trouble like this again, just mention our names,"

Wayne Abbott said, wanting to show his gratitude.

"Assimilated?"

Nina Jacobs hadn’t actually noticed this.

’No wonder Kevin Holden had reacted as if he’d never heard of Wayne Abbott before.’

"You don’t know? The rescue team destroyed several Superpower User Alliance hideouts these past few days."

"All the Superpower Users from there were assimilated."

"But these guys are nothing but trouble, and every one of them thinks he’s hot stuff."

The woman’s face was full of dissatisfaction as she mentioned the assimilated Superpower Users.

"I think I heard something about it," Nina Jacobs could only reply.

"My name is Yulia Sharp. You should just say you’re on our team.

Space Superpower Users who belong to a team usually don’t get bullied."

The woman was very grateful that Nina was willing to trade food for their Crystal Cores.

Food was hard currency now, far more important than Crystal Cores.

Nina Jacobs nodded. "If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going."

’No wonder I felt like there were more people in the shelter these past few days.’

’It seems the hideouts Cole Dempsey revealed were likely all correct.’

’I’d also heard Daniel Hale mention that the shelter might stop providing free meals.’

’It’s an indirect way to encourage the survivors to become self-reliant.’

’After all, with the current supplies, it’s difficult to support so many people.’

That night, Myra Lawson paid a personal visit.

She had come specifically to thank Nina Jacobs and Sherry Renner.
