After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 412

Chapter 412: Chapter 412: Her Conjecture

Wayne Warner’s match was an easy win.

After all, Strength Element Superpower Users don’t need any fancy moves—just land your punches and defeat the opponent.

This time, the referee was quick to announce the match’s result.

He didn’t dare wait for Wayne Warner to kill Everett Young.

Otherwise, he worried he’d be the next one used as a punching bag...

As Wayne Warner walked out of the arena, a crowd of people surrounded him.

They were all from Team 1.

"I can’t believe today’s our lucky day! We’ve really struck it rich,"

a man in a tank top exclaimed with immense joy.

Their Crystal Core bets from Nina Jacobs’s match this morning had multiplied over and over.

And now with Wayne Warner’s match this afternoon, their winnings multiplied by several dozen times again.

They had never felt this good in their lives.

"Come on, Wayne. It’s on us today."

The man clapped Wayne Warner on the shoulder, but a sharp pain instantly shot through his hand, chilling him to the bone.

"That’s a Strength Element Superpower User’s Superpower. It can reflect attack damage,"

Nina Jacobs explained as she walked over from the side.

"Sorry, but I wasn’t even attacking him,"

the man said with a pained expression, thinking he’d nearly broken his hand.

’No wonder the more Everett Young attacked, the worse off he seemed.’

Nina Jacobs returned to the Team 1 area with the others.

Along the way, Zachary Sterling offered to treat them, but Nina Jacobs declined. She wanted to check on Naomi Summers as soon as possible.

She didn’t trust Harlan.

"No way. We have to treat you at least once.

How about tonight? We’ll all go together to our warehouse superstore. Pick out whatever you want,"

Zachary Sterling said generously.

"Yeah, we won so many Crystal Cores that they didn’t have enough to pay us out. They converted the rest into some kind of points card for us.

What if they try to deny it later? We should spend as much as we can now."

The woman’s name was Sophia Spencer. Thanks to Nina Jacobs’s victory, the members of Team 1 had nearly won all the Crystal Cores in the entire correction facility.

This had also drawn the envy of many others.

That was why they had agreed to the conversion to points cards.

After all, both could only be spent inside the facility anyway.

Only then did Nina Jacobs agree.

She had only bet 500 Crystal Cores, so her winnings weren’t that substantial. The settlement center had honestly exchanged them for actual Crystal Cores.

’The correction facility’s superstore?

To be honest, I’m curious about what kind of place it is.’

Soon, there was a knock on the door of Harlan’s workshop.

Seeing the two people outside, Harlan remarked, not at all surprised,

"Looks like that Everett Young fellow lost badly."

Wayne Warner appeared completely unharmed, which was how he’d reached that conclusion.

"Where’s Naomi Summers?"

Nina Jacobs scanned the room but didn’t see her.

"Don’t be so tense. I’m a renowned doctor, you know."

Harlan stepped aside, pointing to a storage room on the side as he spoke.

Nina Jacobs saw Naomi Summers lying on a fixed bed frame.

Naomi Summers’s entire body was wrapped in white gauze. Only upon seeing Nina did she finally break down and cry.

Seeing Nina Jacobs staring at him distrustfully, Harlan said with a sigh of resignation,

"I didn’t mistreat her. She was just too heavily injured.

Several of her ribs were broken. Luckily, the bones didn’t pierce any internal organs.

It completely wore me out."

Harlan plopped down onto a nearby chair, rubbing his sore wrists.

Nina Jacobs remained silent. Naomi Summers’s bandages had clearly been applied with great care; it was obviously the work of a professional.

"What kind of illness would make someone unable to touch water?"

Nina Jacobs suddenly asked.

She was thinking about Naomi Summers’s ordeal again.

’Just falling into the water caused such a violent reaction. Could Mrs. White have some kind of disease?

Harlan’s a doctor; maybe he’d know something.’
