After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 366

Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Inquiring

’That simple?’

The group was a little surprised.

"Our dormitories here are separated by gender. The women mostly live in that tower over there. Someone will take the three of you there in a bit."

"As for you men, you can come rest with us."

Virgil Ulrich continued.

But he quickly noticed that one of the tall men was sticking close to the woman holding the cat.

Never leaving her side.

"Ahem, we do have couples, of course. Let’s see... Marcellus, you take them."

When Marcellus heard his name called, he quickly nodded in agreement.

"..."

Nina Jacobs knew the man had misunderstood.

But it was more convenient to have Wayne Warner with her, so she didn’t mind.

Cordelia and Rhonda Rowan went with them as well.

"This place seems pretty well-managed. Do zombies really not get in?"

Nina Jacobs asked curiously as they walked.

’Men and women living separately... Maybe this place isn’t what we thought it was.’

Marcellus sighed. "Of course there are zombies. They come every night. Last month, a huge wave came through, and we lost a lot of Superpower Users. But there’s nothing we can do. It’s better than dying of thirst back at the base."

"Are there any other dangers besides zombies?"

Nina Jacobs asked.

She wanted to probe for information about the group they had fought with two days ago.

"There are zombie animals, too, but as long as they aren’t Zombie Rats, we can handle them. Oh, right, there’s also a group over at Griston, not far from here. They’re probably stronger than us and are always trying to steal our stuff."

Marcellus answered, a hint of anger in his voice.

Nina Jacobs and Cordelia exchanged a look. Cordelia asked in a sympathetic tone,

"That sounds awful. Are they trying to steal supplies?"

’Or women? Crystal Cores?’

"It’s much more serious than that. We only have one Water Element Superpower User here. Those people don’t try to steal supplies or anything else—they just want to take our Water Element Superpower User."

Marcellus replied.

"Take your Water Element Superpower User?"

Nina Jacobs hadn’t expected that answer.

’Is The Aegis Conclave also short on water?’

"You bet. The only reason everyone’s gathered here is that we don’t lack water. It’s what keeps us alive."

Marcellus added that a person could overcome almost anything, but a lack of water was insurmountable.

After showing them the way, Marcellus left.

Just before he left, however, he took another long look at Lexy in Nina Jacobs’s arms.

"Do you think we’ve come to the wrong place?"

Cordelia asked doubtfully, standing inside Nina Jacobs and Wayne Warner’s "couple’s room."

’These people don’t seem to be with Ethan Cole’s group.’

After being brought here, they had complete freedom and hadn’t been harassed by anyone.

"Let’s find someone and ask about the situation first."

Nina Jacobs told Wayne Warner and Lexy to stay put. The rooms inside the tower were partitioned off with wooden planks or cabinets.

The so-called couple’s room was just a slightly larger space cordoned off by a few wooden planks in the farthest corner.

It seemed designed to give them as much privacy as possible.

After giving Wayne Warner a few instructions, Nina Jacobs went with Cordelia to the "women’s dorm" on the floor below.

However, the women’s dorm was almost empty, with most of the rooms vacant.

Even though some bunks had personal belongings, it looked like their occupants were out.

"Maybe yesterday was just a misunderstanding. Those people might not be so bad after all."

Rhonda Rowan finally spoke up.

But her words left Cordelia at a loss for how to respond.
