After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Chapter 72: A Narrow Escape

The flaming Fire Roaring Blade slashed toward the Thunder Element zombie.

From his vantage point in the air, Myron Sinclair could even see the zombie’s head fly off.

"Impressive Sword Technique!"

Myron Sinclair exclaimed in admiration.

"Lawson, quick, look over there!"

Vaughn Rowan pointed at a figure on the ground.

"That’s Ian Chandler. I see him."

The woman held back her tears.

For a moment, she thought her eyes were playing tricks on her.

She had clearly seen Ian Chandler brandishing something as he stabbed at a zombie.

’How did my sweet, gentle son end up fighting zombies?’

"Looks like someone’s coming."

Nina Jacobs had actually spotted the helicopter flying toward them a moment ago.

’Are the shelter’s reinforcements really here so soon?’

The number of zombies was still increasing, and many had already scrambled over the roofs of the cars.

The helicopter circled twice in the air, as if greeting them.

Then, it headed toward the horde of zombies still rushing toward them from up ahead.

Instantly, a hail of gunfire erupted up ahead.

The helicopter provided the perfect angle for shooting zombies; each one died from a bullet to the head.

"Captain Pearson, someone’s here to help us!"

Russell Abbott said excitedly.

"Yes, they’re here."

Chester Pearson hadn’t expected Myra Lawson to arrive so quickly.

’Then the one with her must be Myron Sinclair.’

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Several silenced grenades landed on a distant street. The explosions had a large blast radius but weren’t very loud.

"They’re insane."

Chester Pearson frowned.

But this also bought them time to escape.

Many of the surrounding zombies were drawn toward the sound of the explosions.

"Full retreat! Now!"

Chester Pearson ordered.

Watching the cars retreat swiftly below, Myron Sinclair let out a sharp whistle.

"Damn, there are still a lot of zombies on the road over there."

From her vantage point in the air, Myra Lawson could see the conditions on the streets below.

"Don’t worry. If they run into more zombies,

I’ll take care of them."

Myron Sinclair said with a wide grin.

However, to their surprise, the cars below managed to perfectly avoid the more zombie-infested roads every time they came to a fork.

The convoy quickly made it out of the dangerous area.

"That’s the direction of Ardmore University,

what are they going there for?"

Vaughn Rowan asked with a confused look after checking the map.

"Let’s find a safe area to land, too,"

Myra Lawson said.

The convoy on the ground had now stopped in a fenced-in parking lot.

It seemed they were waiting for them.

"As you command, Ms. Myra..."

After stopping the car, Nina Jacobs checked the status of her Superpower.

She also glanced at her system’s experience bar.

In the last hour, while they were pinned down by zombies, she had killed over a hundred of them.

This included several mutated zombies.

With the Experience Points contributed by her few "teammates," her system looked like it was close to leveling up.

’True opportunities really do come from challenges,’ she thought.

It was a shame she had just missed out on so many Crystal Cores she didn’t have time to dig out.

"We finally made it out alive.

We have the people in that helicopter to thank."

Leo Hale took off his soaked jacket. After resting in the car for a while, the feeling of complete exhaustion he’d felt earlier finally subsided.

’So this is what it feels like to completely use up your Superpower.’

"Here they come."

Nina Jacobs watched the people getting out of the helicopter, a little surprised.

’Is that Myra Lawson?’

"My mom’s here. Don’t say anything in a moment."

Ian Chandler was still very happy to see Myra Lawson.
