After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 525

Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Intelligence on City D

"You can come with us to City D Base."

Because it involved matters from her past life, Nina Jacobs couldn’t press the matter any further.

Since Ethan Young knew about those people, maybe he would uncover something later on.

"Thank you."

Ethan Young’s voice was choked with emotion.

Even though it was a transaction, Nina Jacobs had indeed saved his life.

...

Looking at Ethan Young like this, Nina Jacobs couldn’t help but say, "You... should probably get some rest."

Having a man with a swollen face stare at her, his eyes filled with gratitude, made her feel a bit awkward.

Since Wayne Warner had to drive, Nina Jacobs decided the remaining three of them would take turns on watch that night.

Although they were in sleeping bags, Wayne Warner had also hauled a few bed frames down from inside the house.

The four simple beds were arranged around the fireplace, separated by a thin wall of earth for a bit of privacy.

Nina Jacobs took out her Unlimited Communicator and saw she had over twenty messages from Vera Coleman.

’Did something happen at the base?’

She started from the first message and read through them carefully, quickly understanding why Vera Coleman was so anxious.

It turned out that after the extreme cold, the rivers had frozen solid. The original Rivermouth Pier and several other waterways had all turned into surfaces of ice.

This allowed the zombies that had been trapped on the other side of the river to cross the ice and head toward City D.

City D Base had a large population. Although the base had already used various heavy weapons for bombardment, they couldn’t hold back the sheer number of zombies. Myra Lawson predicted that a zombie tide would likely surge toward the base in the coming days.

And its scale was unknown.

For the past two days, the base had been advising against going out.

Others might not know, but Vera Coleman knew her daughter, Nina Jacobs, was on her way back.

The thought of Nina Jacobs potentially running into a zombie tide made her frantic with worry. Thankfully, she had the communicator and urged Nina to return to Riventon Base to hide out for a while.

Returning to Riventon Base was out of the question, but Nina Jacobs still replied to Vera Coleman, telling her not to worry.

The zombie tide hadn’t formed yet. Perhaps she could make it back before it did.

Another piece of news from Vera Coleman banished all thoughts of sleep.

The Base Commander, Justin Lawson, was sick.

She remembered from her past life that Justin Lawson had never been in good health. He had died in the second year after the extreme cold weather.

Ordinary elderly people simply couldn’t withstand the trial of the extreme cold. Justin Lawson didn’t have a Superpower, so it was normal that he couldn’t handle such weather.

Fortunately, there were many excellent Healers in the base, and Justin Lawson’s condition had stabilized, but he was completely unable to go outside.

What worried Daniel Hale was that City D Base was now a mixed bag of characters. With the Base Commander ill, many new factions would start coveting his position.

After all, City D Base was already a Tier Three Base, and the power held by the commander of a Tier Three Base was not to be underestimated.

’Looks like a lot must have happened at the base these past three months or so.’

After replying to Vera Coleman, Nina Jacobs turned off the Unlimited Communicator.

’We need to speed up our return to the base.’

By the next day, Ethan Young looked much better. At least his face wasn’t as swollen. Still, Nina Jacobs gave him a thermal balaclava to cover his head.

She had only given Ethan Young a small dose of a Healing Potion, which would make his recovery look more natural.

Once they were back on the road, Ethan Young had intended to kill more zombies, but he soon discovered that both Nina Jacobs and Wayne Warner were far stronger than he was.

Even Nia, who looked so small and thin, was always able to produce all sorts of weapons, saving them a great deal of time.

"There’s a river up ahead. We’ll have to take a detour."

Just as they were about to reach a main road, Nina Jacobs had Wayne Warner stop the vehicle.

She asked Nia, "How many Red Lotus Boxes do you have left?"
