After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345: Chapter 345: Walking into a Trap

Establishing a base is indeed a way to acquire a large amount of supplies and Crystal Cores, not to mention Gold.

In her past life, Zachary Ziegler had indeed succeeded.

"If everything goes smoothly, can you leave Zachary Ziegler to me?" Nina Jacobs asked.

"You know him?"

Mordecai Quinn was a little surprised. Come to think of it, he knew almost nothing about the Nina Jacobs standing before him.

"I don’t. I just have a few questions for these Zieglers."

Nina Jacobs replied.

"Be careful. The Ziegler Family is an Ancient Martial Clan with deep and tangled roots. I heard they have a secret family art, a prophecy technique that can be used to find people."

"A prophecy technique?"

Nina Jacobs turned her head. ’Like the prophecy Magnus York mentioned?’

"I have an investigation report back at my place. I’ll get it for you later.

Anyway, if you want something done, leave it to me. After all, there are only two of you."

Mordecai Quinn didn’t have time to explain further, as his plans were already beginning to bear fruit.

Just then, a group of people, centered around one person, started walking toward him.

"Abbott, you’re here."

Mordecai Quinn went to greet the man sitting in the wheelchair at the center of the group.

The man looked to be in his fifties. Though extremely thin and frail, his spirits were high. However, one of his pant legs was empty.

"I’m here! You rascal, I knew you wouldn’t die so easily! HA HA HA."

The man called Abbott said, clapping Mordecai Quinn heartily on the shoulder. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

"Is everything arranged for what’s next?"

A young man pushing the wheelchair asked.

Mordecai Quinn nodded, then said, "I was on the verge of death. These two saved my life."

With that, he walked over to Nina Jacobs and Wayne Warner to make the introductions.

"My name is Blaise Abbott. On behalf of the old commander, I thank you both."

After hearing Mordecai Quinn’s words, Blaise Abbott’s expression filled with gratitude. He bowed deeply to the two of them from his wheelchair.

"You’re too kind. I’m Nina Jacobs, and this is my friend, Wayne Warner."

Nina Jacobs realized Mordecai Quinn wasn’t in such a miserable state after all. Including the group from just now, a considerable number of people were following Blaise Abbott.

’They all seem to be his supporters.’

"Abbott fought side-by-side with my father to get here. Meridia Base belongs as much to him as it did to my dad."

Mordecai Quinn explained.

He looked toward the people gathering in the nearby square and said, "There’s still a hard battle to fight today."

"Go on and get busy. Don’t worry about us,"

Nina Jacobs said.

She had no intention of getting involved in Meridia Base’s affairs.

However, worried that the Zieglers would come looking for trouble with Nina Jacobs, Mordecai Quinn still called over two people to stay near her.

One was a Speed Element Superpower User, so he could be contacted quickly if anything happened.

Nina Jacobs felt a bit exasperated but didn’t say anything.

She wanted to see if Mordecai Quinn could turn the tables.

"Did you hear? Commander Quinn said everyone gets three days’ worth of supplies today, Superpower Users and regular people alike."

"That’s not possible. I heard that both Daniel Lewis and the Commander came back empty-handed this time."

Nina Jacobs found a spot on the fringes and, along with Wayne Warner, listened with great interest to the surrounding chatter.

"Miss Jacobs, we found two suspicious individuals following you. We’ve brought them here."

Ronan Rowan, the Speed Element Superpower User, said as he walked up to Nina Jacobs’ side.

’Someone was following them?’

’Could the Zieglers be trying to take this opportunity to get revenge?’

Nina Jacobs quickly dismissed the idea. The Zieglers should be busy dealing with Mordecai Quinn right now.

Ronan Rowan led her to the back of a nearby building.

The two people were already tied up tightly with vines by Alice Gallagher, the Wood Element Ability User.

"It’s you?"

Nina Jacobs said, looking at the two on the ground in surprise.

It was none other than Atticus and Cyril Vance, the two men she had met on Mornfell.

"You were looking for me?"
