After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 229

Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Wayne Abbott

Nina Jacobs hesitated for a moment.

"Alright."

’This was a friend she had no intention of making.’

’But she remembered hearing in her past life that some high-level executives within The Aegis Conclave had connections to Aeridor.’

"That’s wonderful! I have a new friend."

Icarus Golding was clearly delighted.

"The passage between the two cities has been cleared. I’ll come visit you in City D,"

"my new friend."

Icarus Golding said with a smile.

Nina Jacobs gave a slight nod. It was time for them to leave.

"Wait."

Just then, Irene Palmer called out to her.

"Is there something you need?" Nina Jacobs asked.

"Would you be willing to come to our Falken Base?"

The moment Irene Palmer spoke, the expressions of everyone around them changed.

Especially Chester Pearson’s.

Fortunately, Nina Jacobs rejected her without hesitation.

"Why not think about it a little more?

If you come to our base, your treatment will definitely be better than at City D Base."

Irene Palmer ignored Percival Miller and Wyatt Vance’s attempts to dissuade her and insisted.

’She hadn’t managed to secure any supplies, but if she could bring a powerful Superpower User back with her, that would be a gain in itself.’

’Besides, if Nina came, Icarus Golding wouldn’t have to go to City D Base.’

Irene Palmer even stepped in front of Nina Jacobs, blocking her path.

Nina Jacobs hadn’t wanted to pay her any mind, but seeing her way blocked, she had no choice but to speak.

"Just a moment ago, you were treating us like thieves,"

"and now you want us to be one of your own?

You sure do change your tune quickly, miss."

"Besides, you were the ones who led those Zombie Rats here.

Being your companions doesn’t seem very safe."

Nina Jacobs’s words plunged the scene into silence for several seconds.

No one had expected that Nina Jacobs, who seemed so easygoing, could be so blunt.

Chester Pearson started to laugh.

’As expected, Nina holds a grudge and is fiercely protective of her own.’

’She was still upset about what Irene Palmer had said to Leo Hale and the others earlier.’

"You... Those Zombie Rats were already headed in this direction!

Even if we hadn’t run into them, you wouldn’t have been able to escape!

If it weren’t for us, how would you have discovered them so early?"

Irene Palmer argued defensively.

’She knew Wyatt Vance was a Spiritual Element Superpower User.’

’As they were fleeing for their lives, Wyatt must have been the first to spot them.’

"Oh? Are you telling me you weren’t trying to lead those Zombie Rats right to us just now?"

Chester Pearson glanced at Percival Miller and the others with a look of pity.

"Captain Miller, having to go on missions with someone like her..."

"...we offer you our deepest sympathies."

Ignoring Irene Palmer’s furious words, Chester Pearson simply called for his group to leave.

"You really meet all sorts of weirdos these days."

In the car, Leo Hale couldn’t help but complain.

He could see in the rearview mirror that Irene Palmer was still arguing about something with Percival Miller and his team.

"She’s a Dual Element Superpower User, and I hear she’s the base commander’s childhood sweetheart,"

"so she holds a very high position at the base."

Chester Pearson said.

Percival Miller had told him this back at the industrial park.

"She’s a Dual Element Superpower User, but not even a tenth as strong as Nina."

"I just wonder who cleared out that cannery," Ian Chandler said with a hint of regret.

"It’s better than her getting it,"

Nina Jacobs said. Ian Chandler immediately thought she had a point.

In truth, Nina Jacobs didn’t mean anything else by it.

It was just that the system had notified her that the supplies there would be depleted.

The most likely reason for this depletion was Irene Palmer’s group, who had arrived at almost the same time as her.

As for how they were depleted, she had no way of knowing.

"That guy from Aeridor doesn’t seem like a good person either. Nina, don’t let him fool you,"

Chester Pearson said.

"Mm, don’t worry."

After returning to the base, Nina Jacobs, Leo Hale, and Wayne Warner headed straight for the base hospital.

But they discovered that Daniel Hale wasn’t at the hospital.
