After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 426

Chapter 426: Chapter 426: He Ruled Her Out First

Nina Jacobs asked, confused, "What’s wrong?

We just went after the rest of them."

"Where are they?"

Anselm Hughes asked.

The group of assailants had actually split up and fled.

Although he caught up to some of them, one of the Speed Element Superpower Users still managed to escape.

The remaining three killed themselves on the spot.

Not only did he fail to get any information, but he also ran into several Mutated Zombies on his way back.

"I killed them all."

Nina Jacobs replied.

"Captain Jacobs, all our supplies have been taken!"

Cecily Wells said, her voice choked with tears.

"What? Was it the people from Crestfall, too?"

Nina Jacobs walked toward the supply trucks, feigning shock.

Seeing the completely empty cargo bays again, Nina Jacobs felt a swell of accomplishment.

’I don’t lack supplies, but Tomorrow Base certainly does,’ she thought.

’These supplies will last the base for a very long time.’

Seeing Nina Jacobs standing motionless in front of the rear cargo bay, Cecily Wells even thought she was in shock.

"Crestfall? How did you know?"

Upon hearing this, General Hughes immediately walked up to Nina Jacobs.

"When I was killing them, one of them confessed.

He said they were from Crestfall."

Nina Jacobs replied.

"General Hughes, what do we do now?"

Drake Shaw was also injured. The supplies they were transporting today were especially important; he never imagined they would all be gone.

"Crestfall...

It was actually Crestfall. I should have known it was them...

They must be after me."

General Hughes glared in the direction the attackers had fled.

"General Hughes, we speculate that the enemy also has a Gold Element master.

Our men were all killed instantly by a single Gold Element Superpower strike.

And to have collected all the supplies in such a short time, they must have a Space Superpower master as well."

Just then, a man who had finished his inspection walked over and spoke.

Nina Jacobs remembered his name was Oswin Coleman, likely another member of the Shadow Legion.

Meanwhile, Anselm Hughes, seemingly convinced the thieves hadn’t gotten far, called over several Speed Element Superpower Users to search the surrounding area with him.

But after a whole night of searching, they seemed to have found nothing but zombies.

The next morning, seeing the dark circles under General Hughes’s eyes, Nina Jacobs felt not a shred of guilt.

"Captain Jacobs, you did very well this time.

The supplies are gone, but I’ll find a way to get them back.

There’s no need to continue on this path. For now, just take everyone and head back."

Anselm Hughes’s eyes were filled with exhaustion and resentment.

’Is this General Hughes planning to act alone?’

’Where is he going?’

’Is he going to look for the supplies we lost last night?’

"Aren’t you returning to the base with us, General Hughes?"

Nina Jacobs asked, feigning confusion.

Anselm Hughes shook his head. "Those people last night... their arrival was too strange. I suspect they have a mole among us.

From now on, the fewer people who know about my plans, the better.

Captain Jacobs, you’re a keen observer. Why don’t you help me find out who their person is in this squad."

General Hughes was now sitting with Nina Jacobs in a sealed vehicle. He looked out at the people outside, his eyes filled with suspicion.

As for Nina Jacobs, she had indeed seen through the enemy’s trap.

That was why she was the first person he had ruled out.

"A mole?

It’s also possible the mole isn’t among these people."

Nina Jacobs replied.

Someone had set a trap for them on their planned route, so it was easy to suspect that one of their own had leaked their itinerary.

"You’re right. The mole could also be back at the base.

But I’ll still have to trouble you for what comes next, Captain Jacobs."
