After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89: Chapter 89: Why Should He Be the One to Die?

Cole Dempsey wanted to kill two birds with one stone.

He was eager to find the missing gold and also wanted to quickly secure the supplies Summer Warner had mentioned.

This played right into Nina Jacobs’s hands.

There were many cars in the parking lot; no one would notice if one went missing.

First thing in the morning, when no one was around, Nina Jacobs had stowed her car in her storage space.

Thankfully, a single storage slot was just barely large enough to fit her car.

Cole Dempsey had brought over thirty Superpower Users and more than ten people who could use guns.

A total of four vans.

Nina Jacobs got into the first van with Wayne Warner. Lily Lewis and Cole Dempsey were in the same vehicle.

As she passed Lily Lewis, Nina Jacobs glanced at her.

Lily Lewis gave her an imperceptible nod.

As the van slowly started to move, her breath quickened.

This plan had been a spur-of-the-moment idea from Summer Warner after the goldsmith’s shop was robbed.

While Cole Dempsey was at his wit’s end with no leads.

She had shown up.

She claimed she could use divination to pinpoint the thief’s location.

Given that she had previously succeeded in divining the location of a supply point, Cole Dempsey and Scott Stone had quickly come to believe her.

Summer Warner had said that as long as they could get out the main gate, she would handle the rest.

’Normally, I shouldn’t have believed her.’

’But I’d be willing to risk my life for a chance to escape this place.’

Even the location—the Southwest—was something Summer Warner had told her to say beforehand.

As for the reason why, she hadn’t asked.

"Are you sure they’re hiding in an underground parking garage?"

Scott Stone asked skeptically, watching the growing number of zombies outside the van.

"It might not be a parking garage specifically. From the chart, the convergence of symbols like the Harm Door, the Assault Star, and the Nine Earths, combined with the presence of Ren and Gui Water in this sector... it can only mean a subterranean location with vehicles..."

Lily Lewis produced a flat, round Compass from somewhere.

She stared at the Compass, rattling off a fortune-teller-like explanation that no one else in the van could understand.

However, Scott Stone could at least tell that the place Lily Lewis was describing was underground.

"I think that’s very likely.

Those rats would definitely hide first, and an underground spot is the hardest to find."

The driver’s name was Ryan Lewis.

He thought Lily Lewis made a lot of sense.

"Miss Warner, aren’t you a local?

Do you have any ideas about a place like that?"

Cole Dempsey turned to look at the silent Warner siblings.

"There are a few, but she didn’t say how far,

so I’m not really sure."

Nina Jacobs said.

"They can’t have gone far. If they fled this morning, they wouldn’t have had much of a head start."

Cole Dempsey didn’t have the slightest suspicion.

"That makes it easy then. Take a left up ahead, then a right,

and there’s one about four or five kilometers from there."

Nina Jacobs said.

"What do you think, Mr. Lewis? Is the place she mentioned possible?"

Scott Stone didn’t trust Summer Warner’s words.

But he trusted Lily Lewis.

Besides, Summer Warner and Lily Lewis absolutely did not get along. He’d heard they got into a fight the moment they met yesterday.

Summer Warner had even demanded that Cole Dempsey let her change dorms after they got back.

’Not that she’ll have a say in it by then,’ he thought.

’I’ll make her pay for my cousin’s death and Hector Quincy’s injuries.’

"What she’s saying... is highly probable."

Lily Lewis replied, looking at the Compass in her hand.

The few people in the van were all delighted.

They hadn’t expected to find a lead so quickly.

"There are too many zombies up ahead! I don’t think we can push through!"

Soon, the driver, Ryan Lewis, started to struggle.

The number of zombies on the road was increasing.

"No choice. Tell the boys to clear a path!"

Scott Stone turned on his walkie-talkie and ordered the van behind them to open fire.

But the number of zombies didn’t seem to decrease.

Scott Stone, a Superpower User himself, was eager to show off for Cole Dempsey, so he got out and led the Superpower Users from the other vehicles to start killing zombies.

"Why are there so many mutated zombies?"
