After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 134

Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Converted to Crystal Cores

"I heard Crystal Cores can be used to buy things,"

"so just pay me in Crystal Cores."

Nina Jacobs phrased it as tactfully as she could.

"That’s definitely not a problem."

Shirley Lucas resolved that when he got back, he would definitely help Nina Jacobs get more.

"One more thing,"

"if Simon Abbott goes back, remember to be careful of him,"

Nina Jacobs said.

Simon Abbott would eventually return to Liam Grant and the others.

But he was still Tyson Hughes’s man, so they had to be on their guard.

"Simon Abbott?"

Shirley Lucas had almost forgotten about the man, but since Nina Jacobs brought him up, it meant he definitely needed to be watched.

Shirley Lucas’s space was quite large.

But stuffing all these weapons and supplies inside still used up every last inch of it.

Fortunately, their vehicle was large enough to hold a dozen or so extra boxes of ammunition.

"Be extra careful."

"We’ll see you around,"

"Summer~"

Shirley Lucas waved to Nina Jacobs.

He was still used to calling her Summer.

"See you around."

The two vehicles drove off in different directions.

Nina Jacobs’s next destination was the neighboring City J.

Yvette Lowe from the Superpower User Alliance had once told her that there were no longer any shelters in City J.

The survivors there could only fend for themselves.

Originally, they had been hoping for a rescue.

But a few days ago, the official Drakonian Government app had posted an important notice.

The rescue command headquarters advised that before a safe shelter could be established in City J, the best option for survivors was to head to the neighboring City D and City F to find refuge.

The implication was clear.

It was very likely that City J would not be getting a shelter.

Only after that notice was posted did many survivors from City J begin flooding into City D.

The reason Nina Jacobs wanted to go to City J,

besides going on looting missions for supplies,

was that she also wanted to try her luck and find the Mystic Ice Core that had appeared in her past life.

The Mystic Ice Core was said to be a fragment of a meteorite.

Just by carrying it, one could block the tracking of Spiritual Element Superpower Users.

In the third year of the apocalypse, a Water Element Superpower User had accidentally absorbed that Ice Core, and their Water Element Superpower had mutated into an Ice Element Superpower. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

At first, the Drakonian Government thought it was an isolated case.

But they later learned that many powerful Superpower Users from other countries had also used this type of Ice Core to evolve mutated Superpowers.

Besides the Water Element mutating into the Ice Element,

other mutated Superpowers, even if they didn’t change fundamentally, would become stronger than their original versions.

And the reason Superpower Users from other countries were flocking to Drakonia was the speculation that Drakonia was the region where the most meteorite fragments had fallen.

In her previous life, the first place the Ice Core was discovered was within the City J region—

the very place that would soon become a city of zombies, with no survivors left.

GRUMBLE GRUMBLE.

That familiar sound came from the back of the vehicle again.

"Are you hungry?"

Nina Jacobs asked.

For the past few days, she had been deliberately following a principle of smaller, more frequent meals, only letting Wayne Warner eat until he was about three-quarters full each time.

The result was that his three meals a day had turned into five.

"Yeah."

Wayne Warner sat up from the bed in the back and looked at Nina Jacobs.

"Eat this to tide you over for now."

"We’ll find a place to rest up ahead and stay there for the night."

Nina Jacobs took a container of dumplings from a storage compartment.

In her spare time over the last two days, she had used an electric pot with a portable power station to cook a lot of frozen dumplings.

Then she portioned them out into many food containers.

Wayne Warner had a special fondness for both buns and dumplings, so this kind of nutritious, easy-to-carry food was perfect for him to snack on while on the road.

"Thanks."

Taking the dumplings, Wayne Warner bit the lid open directly, as his new fingernails hadn’t grown in yet.

Nina Jacobs had already driven out of City D by now.

Between City D and City J, they still had to pass through several villages and farmlands.

As expected,

all the farmland along the road had turned into a wasteland of black, rotting earth.

The high temperatures over many days had baked dry cracks into the ground.

The walls of the villages along the way were spattered with varying amounts of bloodstains.

It looked particularly eerie in the dim evening light.

After running over a few zombies, Nina Jacobs got out of the car to dig out their Crystal Cores.

But then she heard the sound of someone coughing not far away.
