Doomsday Revenge: Payback Time (Josie) novel Chapter 173

Chapter 173

Even if there wasn’t a payout, we have to leave eventually.”

The room went dead silent.

He was right.

We can’t hide in Fort City forever. Sooner or later, we’re going to have to see what’s left of the world.

So, reward or no reward–what’s the difference?

Besides, if we’re the first ones to clear a path out, we get the intel first,” Zane continued. “This is a war for survival–us against the indead and the mutants. If humanity doesn’t pull together, we’re done. We have to unite to beat these things.”

If we try to play lone wolf, those monsters will pick us off one by one.”

osie nodded. “He’s right.”

The Base is being pretty fair with the 60/40 split,” Zane added. “They’ve got the numbers, we don’t. And when it comes to cavenging, more boots on the ground definitely helps.”

osie glanced around the room. “Anyone else got something to say?”

They all shook their heads.

t finally clicked for them.

This wasn’t the time to sweat the small stuff or worry about immediate gains.

Right now, it was all about the grind. They needed to stockpile every single resource they could get their hands on.

When the dust settled and humanity tried to rebuild, those supplies would be their only leverage.

osie sent the word out, and the base didn’t leave her hanging. They got back to her fast.

Once she handed over the Power Rain, Josie moved on. She didn’t have time to micromanage.

The base sent out 300 Supers to link up with Josie’s crew, forming the Purge Squad.

Their mission: clear the highways, the main roads, and the backroads.

She pushed her Metallic power to the max, her blades shredding through the crowd and ending lives in seconds.

The Pyro Supers were right behind her. Dragons of fire swept over the asphalt, incinerating the rot and leaving the ground littered with glowing, colorful Essence Cores.

Hundreds of cars flew into the air, twisting and snapping as they were crushed into solid metal blocks.

They slammed onto the ground, forming a massive wall of scrap metal in seconds.

Anything that wasn’t metal was shoved to the side of the road by the Terrestrial Supers, left there to be sorted later.
