After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 67

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Is It Possible This Is Man-made?

"Everyone, stay alert! Don’t leave any blind spots!"

Chester Pearson stood on the roof of a car, his gun aimed at the dozen or so zombies running toward them in the distance.

His aim was true, hitting the zombies’ vitals every time.

After taking care of all the distant zombies, he jumped off the car and handed his weapon to a team member beside him.

He had actually been practicing his Fire Element Superpower day and night. The Fireballs he produced weren’t small, but their impact force was less than a tenth of Nina Jacobs’.

A zombie snarling at a team member in front of him only staggered when hit by his Fireball.

However, his provocation succeeded in drawing its attention.

"Don’t shoot. Leave it to me,"

Chester Pearson said.

"Control of your Superpower has to be maintained from start to finish. It’s not over just because you’ve fired it off. You’ve only completed the step of generating the Superpower."

Nina Jacobs began her live tutorial from the sidelines.

"...Besides generating it, you also have to manipulate it, and convert and focus its energy.

A Superpower is fundamentally a form of energy from the laws of nature.

It’s not a bullet, and it’s not just a tool..."

Nina Jacobs’ words were a sudden revelation for Chester Pearson.

The other Superpower User team members around them also silently committed her words to memory.

Just then, Chester Pearson’s next Fireball finally set the zombie’s head ablaze.

"That’s already very good. Just keep practicing."

Nina Jacobs saw the excitement on Chester Pearson’s face.

The rest was up to Chester Pearson himself.

’Manipulating and applying the laws of nature, huh...’

Chelsea Walsh stared at the zombie in the distance, paralyzed by her Thunder Element Superpower, and suddenly understood something.

After a brilliant flash of lightning, the zombie collapsed.

"I did it!"

Chelsea Walsh shouted excitedly.

It was the first time she had killed a zombie using her Thunder Element Superpower.

Without relying on anyone else, and without using a weapon.

The other Superpower User rescue team members all looked over with envy.

Immediately after, the head of the zombie Chester Pearson had set on fire suddenly burst open with a POP.

’I killed it!’

Chester Pearson was ecstatic.

"...That was a little too disgusting."

Leo Hale thought Nina Jacobs’ Fire Element Superpower was easier on the eyes.

At least hers burned everything away.

"You think so?

It saves us a bomb. Perfect."

Chester Pearson was still reveling in the joy of using his Superpower to blow up a zombie’s head.

Nina Jacobs could tell that Chester Pearson had gotten the hang of it.

"Everyone’s method might be different,

but every technique comes down to two things—conserving your Superpower and maximizing its effect,"

Nina Jacobs added.

Although Ian Chandler didn’t say anything, he also firmly committed Nina Jacobs’ words to heart.

The group protected Ian Chandler in their center, allowing him to clear the road safely until they reached the outside of the mall.

"My God..."

Seeing the dense horde of zombies packed inside the mall’s glass doors, everyone’s expression turned grim.

"Damn it, who locked all these zombies inside?"

Chester Pearson hadn’t expected to run into this kind of situation.

It looked like there were at least several thousand zombies locked on this floor.

This was simply not a mission that a small team of just over thirty people could handle.

Besides, there surely couldn’t be any living people left inside the mall.

"What floor is the supermarket on?" Nina Jacobs asked.

"The second floor," a rescue team member replied.

"I’ll climb in."

Chester Pearson and Nina Jacobs had the same idea.

But they had only brought one Space Superpower User with them today: Ian Chandler.

"I’ll go with you."

Nina Jacobs thought for a moment. Malls usually had jewelry stores.

Besides, she had a strange feeling about this mall.

Leo Hale and Chelsea Walsh wanted to go up too, but Nina Jacobs refused.

The more people who went, the easier it would be to attract zombies.

"Then you two have to be careful.

We’ll be waiting for you down here,"

Chelsea Walsh said worriedly.

"You too. If things go south, run immediately. We have a way to escape."

Nina Jacobs nodded.
