After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 161

Chapter 161: Chapter 161: Masterpiece

Just then, Wendy Marshall and the others, who had been observing the battle, came out as well.

After the past few days together, they had developed an unspoken understanding.

They knew not to panic when trouble arose.

Rushing in recklessly would only disrupt Nina Jacobs’s rhythm.

It was better to listen to Nina and stay out of her way.

"We need to get up there, fast.

Some of the zombies from across the way are already heading over here."

Jessica Vance and Wendy Marshall said as they arrived to help.

"Right."

Nina Jacobs nodded.

Chase Gallagher hadn’t lured over that many zombies.

Wayne Warner had already taken care of quite a few, and it only took another ten-odd minutes to clean up the rest.

"Can you still walk?"

Nina Jacobs asked, walking over to Chase Gallagher.

After killing the zombie infant, the system had gifted her over 300 more Healing Potions.

"I... I think so."

Chase Gallagher tried to stand up.

"I’ll help him get upstairs."

Holden Shaw said, sheathing his long blade.

Staying here would inevitably attract more zombies.

"It’s getting late. Let’s just stay here for the night,"

Nina Jacobs suggested once they were back on the top floor where they had been before.

Even though the hospital was right across the street, this building was tall enough that it was hard for zombies to track them by scent.

After they went upstairs, the zombies gathered below slowly dispersed.

"I agree.

This building is over fifty stories high.

The zombies will have a hell of a time climbing all the way up here."

Pascal Paige had gone up and down the stairs twice, and even with the physique of a Superpower User, she was now panting for breath.

On their way up, they had also locked the stairwell door on every floor.

So it would definitely be safe to rest here for the night.

Nina Jacobs and Wayne Warner, on the other hand,

didn’t show the slightest sign of fatigue.

"Thank you."

Chase Gallagher looked at the group of strangers.

It was hard to believe his life had just been saved.

"Let me heal you,"

Pascal Paige said, using her healing technique without hesitation.

"Don’t worry about it. As for those people from earlier,"

"we know a bit about them."

Nina Jacobs said, pointing out the window.

"You do...?"

Surprise flashed across Chase Gallagher’s face.

"You bet. They even accused the Tiger-Lion Squad of stealing their supplies.

You’re one of them, you must have known about that, right?"

Holden Shaw retorted.

Chase Gallagher lowered his head.

He genuinely didn’t know.

He had arrived in City J half a month before Finn Hart and the others.

His mission had been to gather intel on the various factions in City J.

And to scout ahead.

"Sounds like pretty important work.

I can’t believe they’d just leave you behind."

Pascal Paige said as she continued her treatment.

But she noticed that as soon as she said it, Chase Gallagher hung his head even lower.

"..."

Pascal Paige instantly realized she’d said the wrong thing.

"Oh, don’t get me wrong, I didn’t mean it like that.

It’s their loss for leaving you behind..."

She tried to comfort him, but realized she was only digging herself a deeper hole.

"Did that Superpower User Alliance just get to City J recently?"

Nina Jacobs asked, changing the subject as she looked at the hospital across the street.

Chase Gallagher finally looked up.

"As far as I know, they arrived about fifteen days ago.

There were 400 of them at the time,

and their temporary camp is on Mountside Road."

"Has Finn Hart lost a lot of people recently?"

Nina Jacobs asked casually.

"Don’t get me wrong, I’m not interested in him.

It’s fine if you don’t want to answer."

’It had been less than ten days, and Finn Hart’s convoy had already been cut in half.’

’She even wondered if he had split his forces to gather supplies on two separate routes.’

"He’s lost a lot of people.
