After I Fully Prepared for the Apocalypse, the Ungrateful Cried with Regret novel Chapter 98

Chapter 98: Chapter 98: She’s Back

"How is Captain Grant at fault? He just reacted a little faster."

"Yeah, just look around! Who can even compare to Captain Grant’s Superpower?

Forget just the Fire Element—even if you combine all the elements, no one can beat him."

"I think Captain Pearson is just jealous. They’re both Fire Element Superpower Users, so when he can’t measure up, he just nitpicks!"

"Shut your filthy mouths!

It’s easy for you to talk since you weren’t the ones used as a zombie shield, right?

If Captain Pearson hadn’t arrived in time, that team member would have been killed by his own ally, right before his eyes!"

"What did that team member do to deserve that? He’s taken part in dozens of rescue missions, big and small!"

"He could die in battle, or he could die saving someone,

but he absolutely should not die being forced to take a hit for someone else!"

It was Leo Hale’s voice, and he sounded furious.

Nina Jacobs, at least, had never heard him so angry.

"The Captain Grant you’re all defending is just a petty coward who’s afraid of dying,

can’t you all see that?"

That was Chelsea Walsh’s voice.

The two sides were still arguing, and it was getting heated.

No one noticed Nina Jacobs standing at the back of the crowd of onlookers.

Nina had thought something interesting was happening, but then she saw Liam Grant in the center of it all.

"I take full responsibility for my actions.

Since Supervisor Holden said we can settle this with a match, I have no objections."

After speaking, Liam Grant looked at Chester Pearson.

"Captain Pearson, you don’t have to target me at every turn.

Let’s just fight!"

"The way you say that, it’s as if I’m deliberately trying to pick a fight with you.

Holt Tate has been with me for so long. I have to see justice done for him."

Chester Pearson still had a nonchalant tone, but it seemed to take a great deal of effort just to stand up from his wheelchair.

"Captain Pearson, how can you fight him in your condition?

Your injuries haven’t even healed yet."

Russell Abbott was frantic, and many others in the crowd also tried to dissuade him.

"Supervisor Holden, Captain Pearson is injured. How could he possibly win a match?"

Daniel Hale stepped forward.

"What’s going on?"

Chelsea Walsh was still fuming when she felt someone appear beside her.

A familiar voice made her turn her head in pleasant surprise.

"Nin..."

Chelsea Walsh covered her mouth and excitedly hugged Nina Jacobs.

"You’re back safely! We were worried sick!"

Chelsea Walsh began to explain in a low voice.

"A few days ago, when Captain Pearson’s team was out gathering supplies, they ran into Liam Grant’s squad. And to make matters worse, they’d attracted a horde of zombies.

While they were fighting the zombies, that scumbag Grant actually grabbed Holt Tate and used him as a shield. Luckily, Captain Pearson noticed in time and saved Holt, but his own leg was injured in the process."

"Captain Pearson just wants to get justice for Holt, so he proposed that Liam Grant be stripped of his position.

But that Supervisor Holden, along with Dawn Donovan and the others, insisted Liam Grant was innocent, so the whole thing blew up and got out of hand."

After Chelsea’s brief explanation, Nina Jacobs understood everything.

"The key issue now is that Captain Pearson is injured. Otherwise, he wouldn’t necessarily lose to him."

"Is Liam Grant really that strong now?"

Nina Jacobs asked curiously.

"I guess so. Anyway, the rumor everywhere is that he’s the number one fighter in the shelter or something.

I heard from Uncle Hale that because of those rumors, even Justin Lawson thinks highly of him."

Chelsea Walsh looked worriedly toward the center of the crowd, where Chester Pearson was still insisting on competing.

"It’s just a contest of Superpowers, right?

My leg is just broken. Who knows, maybe I can beat you into submission while sitting down?"

Chester Pearson said.

"Captain Pearson, let me teach you something. A Superpower User’s power and their physical stamina are inseparable.

Just having a Superpower isn’t enough. Is that what you usually teach the people under you?"

Liam Grant sounded as if he were giving earnest advice, but his tone was dripping with mockery.

Many people in the surrounding crowd started to laugh.

"Nonsense! That’s not how Captain Pearson teaches us at all!"

A team member spoke up indignantly on Chester Pearson’s behalf.

"Sounds like you’ve learned a lot. Why don’t you have a match with our Captain Grant?"

Nina Jacobs said. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
