After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 319

Chapter 319: Chapter 319: Even the Useless Can Be Shown Off

It took the group another half hour, but they finally emerged from the cave.

Beckett Abbott hadn’t expected to actually find zombies on this side of the mountain.

"Maybe it’s a zombie that wandered up from the base of the mountain?"

Holden Shaw said uncertainly, looking at the zombie corpse on the ground.

They had been out of the cave for less than an hour. It looked like an ordinary Mutated Zombie.

It hadn’t even seemed accustomed to using its Superpower; he had killed it in a single blow.

Nina Jacobs was examining the zombie’s corpse when she suddenly froze.

"What’s wrong?"

Adrian Shaw’s face fell when he saw what was in Nina Jacobs’s hand.

It was a tracker.

"This kind of tracker uses radio waves and has a very short range. Who would bother tracking a zombie?"

Shirley Lucas clearly recognized the device as well.

"It wasn’t tracking the zombie. It was tracking us,"

Nina Jacobs said.

Someone had found them.

The other party was using zombies to locate people, but their motive was unclear.

"So that means someone else has already made it onto the mountain."

Adrian Shaw scanned their surroundings warily.

’Did someone beat us to the Mystic Ice Core again?’

Nina Jacobs, however, had already summoned her Superpower Fire and incinerated the zombie.

"It’ll take them time to get here. We should leave first,"

Nina Jacobs said.

The only problem was which direction to go. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"The zombie came from that direction. We can head the opposite way."

Shirley Lucas pulled a tablet from his dimensional space. It contained a rough map of Mornfell’s various peaks.

While it couldn’t pinpoint their exact coordinates, they could still get a general idea of their location.

Adrian Shaw didn’t hesitate to follow.

Their goal was to reach the summit.

As long as the path led upward, they were on the right track.

As they walked, Nina Jacobs left special markers behind.

She did this not only so they could retrace their steps, but also to leave a message for Trevor and the others.

The acid rain’s corrosion had actually made the mountain path much easier to traverse.

There was no vegetation left on the ground, and the surrounding gray-white tree trunks crumbled at the slightest touch.

But this also meant they had no cover whatsoever.

"Hey... do you guys hear something?"

Marcus Miller finally spoke up.

After absorbing the Mystic Ice Core, he’d noticed his hearing had become far more acute.

He had wondered if he’d developed a Spiritual Element Superpower, but unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.

His hearing had simply improved.

"A sound?" Leo Hale said he couldn’t hear a thing.

Beckett Abbott also gave him a puzzled look.

"There is."

Nina Jacobs activated her Five Senses Enhancement and confirmed it, hearing a faint rustling sound around them.

Now, no one dared to make a careless move.

"Where is it?" Jessica Vance formed a Wind Ball in her hand, ready to strike.

Nina Jacobs frowned.

The rustling sound fluctuated, sometimes distant, sometimes near, making it difficult to pinpoint.

But that sound...

Nina Jacobs hesitated no longer. Diamond Sand swirled in her palm. "Stay put! Don’t move!"

Marcus Miller stared at his feet in astonishment.

The soft, weathered ground was instantly reinforced by Nina Jacobs’s Earth Element Superpower. He suddenly understood.

"There’s something underground!"

THUD!!

THUD! THUD!!

Marcus Miller felt something sharp violently striking the ground beneath his feet.

THUD! THUD! THUD!
