After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 182

Chapter 182: Chapter 182: A Lingering Threat

Hearing her companion’s scream, Phoebe Vance scrambled to hide behind the others in terror.

She and Jane Dixon had always stayed by Finn Hart’s side.

They had never killed a single zombie.

Let alone a Zombie Rat.

Jane Dixon also saw the handful of Zombie Rats.

But they didn’t look particularly terrifying. Were those two green leaves on their backs?

For a moment, the Zombie Rats even stood still at the side, unmoving.

It was as if they were waiting for someone to give them an order.

"How can there be Zombie Rats like this?"

Phoebe Vance said.

The screams continued. The few people who had been bitten by the Zombie Rats at the beginning had already turned into zombies.

The scene instantly devolved into chaos.

Phoebe Vance opened the door, only to see a familiar figure in the courtyard.

Her eyes widened. "How is it you?!"

"What are you doing here?"

Jane Dixon also had a look of disbelief.

’Nina Jacobs is here all alone. Don’t tell me she’s...’

"Take a guess."

Nina Jacobs waved her hand, and the Zombie Rats inside the house scurried out one after another, lining up at the doorway.

"You can control these things... You want to kill us?"

Phoebe Vance’s expression was one of terror.

She regretted provoking Nina Jacobs. More than that, she couldn’t understand how someone could control Zombie Rats.

But the moment the words left her mouth, the Zombie Rats lunged at her and Jane Dixon.

"You guessed right. Trying to shift the blame and make excuses for that idiot superior of yours? Have you forgotten who you have to thank for surviving that night?"

Nina Jacobs had been a little hesitant when she first arrived outside the door.

But then she heard what they were saying.

Chester Pearson and his people represented the City D rescue team.

Their job was to save people.

But she was different.

’If I don’t kill these people, they’ll just become a problem later on.’

Two Wood Element Vines slammed the door shut again.

Listening to the screams and struggles from inside, Nina Jacobs walked out of the courtyard alone...

「...」

The convoy arrived smoothly in City D the next morning.

"Nina, once the base is built... what are your plans?"

Inside the vehicle, Holden Shaw couldn’t help but ask.

They were about to reach their destination, and he suddenly felt a little lost.

Before, he had lived just to survive.

But he’d heard the base was safe enough, and now he suddenly didn’t know what he was supposed to do.

Chase Gallagher and the others all pricked up their ears.

"What, none of you have any plans?"

On the way back, Nina Jacobs was still riding in the same car as Chase Gallagher’s group.

Seeing them all fall silent, she finally spoke.

"If you don’t have any plans, you can come with me."

"With you? We can’t just depend on you to support us, right? No way. You’re two years younger than me."

Pascal Paige quickly waved his hands in refusal.

How could they possibly let Nina Jacobs support them?

She had saved their lives, after all.

"Don’t get me wrong. I don’t support freeloaders. The base is only relatively safe. You’ll still have to rely on yourselves to survive."

Nina Jacobs said.

She had thought a lot over the past two days. The appearance of The Aegis Conclave, in particular, had made her realize the importance of strength.

This strength wasn’t just about her alone.

’Maybe I need to cultivate a group of my own people.’

She had the resources, but cultivating people would require starting from scratch.

After hearing Nina Jacobs’s words, everyone in the car began to think.

"Count me in."

Chase Gallagher, who was driving, was the first to speak.

"You’re not going back to City A?"

Pascal Paige remembered that Chase Gallagher was from City A.

"It doesn’t conflict."

Chase Gallagher replied.

"Alright."

Nina Jacobs had been thinking of recruiting Chase Gallagher for a while now.

After all, he was a good person at heart and a Dual Element Superpower User.

"Count me in too."

Holden Shaw declared.
