After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 34

Chapter 34: Chapter 34: Only He Doesn’t Have One

Preserve combat strength.

This was by no means about playing it safe or leaving others to die.

It was a strategic trade-off.

What they had to do was gather the strength of Drakonia and its military to deal with this virus in the safest way possible!

They couldn’t send people to their deaths, and they certainly couldn’t let them die in vain!

"Yes, sir!"

Harrison Driscoll and the others took half a step back, but then they saw Warren Rhodes raise his weapon and aim it at Corbin Lawson without hesitation.

"Listen up! To take down a zombie, you must destroy its head. Attacks to any other part of the body are useless!

Once someone turns into a zombie, the process is irreversible. Don’t harbor any illusions—kill them on sight!"

Warren Rhodes loudly recited the words that had been seared into his memory.

As if giving a demonstration, Warren Rhodes fired several consecutive shots at Corbin Lawson.

Harrison Driscoll found, to his disbelief, that no matter how deadly the attack, it had almost no effect on Corbin Lawson.

’Can the infected not be killed?’

"Look closely. He’s not human anymore.

If he scratches or bites you, you’ll become just like him!"

"YES, SIR!!!"

BANG.

After Warren Rhodes shot Corbin Lawson between the eyes, he finally collapsed.

"Follow me to the command center.

We need to come up with a better battle plan, now!"

Hearing the screams rising and falling all around him, Warren Rhodes knew that every single second was precious.

Otherwise, Drakonia was truly in peril!

...

Nina Jacobs heard the sirens blaring everywhere, too.

It was almost the exact same scene as in her past life.

The only difference was that this time, the outbreak had started a little earlier.

Fortunately, she had already made that phone call.

’I just wonder if it will do any good.’

Just then, a strange yet familiar power surged through her. Nina Jacobs knew this feeling all too well.

Feeling the changes in her body, Nina moved from the window to the door several meters away in just three seconds.

Her Speed Element Superpower was back!

[Host has awakened Speed Element Superpower. Title "Hardworking Awakener" triggered. Reward: one Second Superpower Card!]

’A Second Superpower Card?!’

Nina remembered that in her past life, she only received this reward after her Speed Element Superpower had advanced.

’I can’t believe I got it this early.’

In her past life, after getting the Second Superpower Card, she had secretly used it to help Wyatt Jacobs awaken his Gold Element Superpower.

This led Wyatt Jacobs to believe he was just a "late bloomer."

’I wonder if I can use this Second Superpower Card on myself.’

"System, can I use the Second Superpower Card on myself?"

[Affirmative. The host can use the Second Superpower Card to acquire any Superpower other than their First Superpower. The two will not interfere with each other.]

"What about my Speed Element Superpower? Will that be affected?"

’It would be a huge waste to accidentally invalidate such a precious Superpower card.’

[Unaffected. The host’s own Superpower and the Superpower rewarded by the system do not interfere with one another.]

The system’s answer was clear, so Nina Jacobs relaxed and opened the Second Superpower Card.

Just like with her First Superpower, the system repeated the introduction.

This time, from over a dozen options, Nina Jacobs chose the Earth Element Superpower.

She had one reason and one reason only: to make better use of her safe house.

The Earth Element Superpower not only possessed the defensive power that the Fire Element Superpower lacked, but it was also quite useful for escaping.

Moreover, if she wanted to conceal the safe house’s existence, the Earth Element Superpower was undoubtedly the best choice.

’The only question is whether I have enough Superpower Energy.’

A small flame flickered to life in Nina Jacobs’s right hand, while a cluster of sand swirled in her left.

The flame and the sand merged. From the outside, it looked like a completely ordinary flame.

’It can be used like this?’

For now, however, she didn’t plan on revealing her Earth Element and Speed Element Superpowers. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
