"So this is what you use to harm people?"
Nina Jacobs was a little curious.
She pinned Wesley Hawthorne under her foot and slowly injected the contents of the syringe into his back.
Within a few seconds, Wesley Hawthorne stopped moving.
He seemed to have passed out cold.
’It works that well?’
Nina Jacobs suddenly found herself interested in the drug.
’This isn’t just an ordinary anesthetic, is it?’
She walked over to Tina Rhodes and the others.
With a wave of her hand, she used a Fire Blade to cut the ropes and Wood Element Vines binding them.
"Thank you, thank you for saving us."
Tina Rhodes never dreamed they would be free just like that.
"Do you know where I can find a doctor?"
Nina Jacobs asked.
"A doctor?
I know, I know!
Doctor Lynch was locked up by them. He should still be alive!"
the short-haired girl next to Tina Rhodes said excitedly.
"Right, and there are others.
Besides us, they’ve captured a lot of people!"
Their faces were all bruised and swollen, but their expressions were incredibly agitated.
"We’ll—we’ll go find Doctor Lynch and the others right now!"
"Okay. I’m not familiar with this place.
I’ll have to trouble you with what comes next."
Nina Jacobs pointed to Wesley Hawthorne on the ground not far away.
Wesley Hawthorne probably wasn’t dead, just knocked unconscious by the drug.
She left the rest to Tina Rhodes and her group.
Meanwhile, she walked into the courtyard of the four captors.
Inside the three-story building where they lived, she discovered a large amount of supplies.
The second and third floors were completely filled with food supplies.
The rooms on the first floor seemed to hold supplies looted from other Superpower Users.
There was a considerable amount.
’Looks like they really did harm a lot of people.’
Nina Jacobs gazed at the miscellaneous supplies.
There were hundreds of backpacks alone.
The kitchen was also filled with numerous drugs and all sorts of bottles and jars.
To think so many people had fallen into the hands of an old man, a child, a man, and a woman.
It must have been because of these drugs.
Nina Jacobs collected all the drugs into her system’s storage grid.
She took some of the supplies from the second and third floors, leaving some behind.
As for the miscellaneous supplies on the first floor, she didn’t plan on touching them.
Tina Rhodes and the others quickly rescued the remaining survivors.
Some of them appeared to be in critical condition.
Others were on the verge of death from starvation or severe dehydration.
"Inside are the supplies they looted.
You can use them to help people."
Nina Jacobs said.
"I’ll go get the medical kit first.
Quick, anyone with strength left, go cook some rice water.
As fast as you can!"
Upon hearing this, a man in his twenties immediately began directing the people around him.
"The rice water is the most useful form of Electrolyte Water,
it will be good for everyone."
Easton Lynch emphasized after a flurry of activity.
"You’re a doctor?"
Nina Jacobs asked.
"Yes, I’m Easton Lynch, an orthopedic surgeon from City J’s Third People’s Hospital.
Thank you for saving all of us."
Easton Lynch looked at Nina Jacobs, who appeared to be college-aged.
None of them had expected that a girl like her would be the one to save them all.
It turned out that Easton Lynch and the others were all survivors fleeing to City D.
"City J is done for.
The command headquarters advised us to head to City D.
Along the way, we were chased by zombies, chased by zombie animals...
We finally made it here and thought we could catch our breath..."
"...Who would have thought that such a small child was also a trickster.
After we drank the water and ate the food they gave us, we woke up locked in the cellar."
Easton Lynch recounted the events of the past few days.
"The first group had it even worse.
Many were beaten, starved, or died of thirst.
Some were even used by them as bait for Zombie Rats... No matter how much we begged, it was useless."
