Chapter 493

Hayley counted the decimals, one by one. 1

She had over 140 million points.

She had broken 100 million! Her points finally crossed nine digits!

The moment she saw that long string of numbers, she jumped to her feet in pure excitement.

“Woof, woof!” Summer tilted her head at her, confused.

“Summer, you’re my lucky charm,” Hayley said, wrapping an arm around Summer’s neck.

The other dogs finished eating and gathered around her, all eyes on her face.

“All of you are.”

After giving each of them a good head rub, Hayley hurried into the system’s exchange panel. She went straight to the medical section.

Her small goal: the zombie inhibitor.

One hundred million points.

Exchange!

As soon as 100 million points were deducted, a clear syringe appeared in her palm.

Ding! [Congratulations! Zombie virus inhibitor acquired!]

Hayley sucked in a sharp breath.

She got it.

She finally got the thing she had been dreaming about!

Hayley immediately pulled up the item details.

[Zombie Virus Inhibitor: If injected within three minutes of zombie virus infection, it can suppress the spread of the virus.

[Note: This item is single–use only.

[Note: The inhibitor only works once it enters the infected person’s body. Once removed from the syringe, it becomes inactive.]

After reading everything, Hayley frowned slightly.

So it was a one–time item, not something that granted permanent immunity.

And it only worked inside a body. Once it left the syringe, it died. That meant it couldn’t be studied.

That completely crushed Hayley’s earlier idea of handing it to Ruby for research.

She had planned to let Ruby break down the formula and try to develop an actual cure. As it turned out, the system had shut that door completely.

Thinking about it, that made sense.

1/2

Something this powerful was never going to be mass–produced. If it were, the global zombie crisis would have ended already. It would’ve been the ultimate cure.

Well, if that was the case, this inhibitor could only be saved for herself.

That was fine.

Hayley wasn’t greedy. Just having one was already more than enough.

It was another trump card in her pocket, something that let her fight through zombie hordes with more peace of

mind.

On top of that, her base and the league were booming. Her daily point income was climbing past/200 thousand without her even trying.

She could exchange them for another dose later.

No rush.

After carefully placing the precious zombie virus inhibitor into her inventory, Hayley, in a great mood, sent out benefits to the entire base. She also rolled out discounted supplies across the whole league.

Once the benefits went out, morale shot up. Trade activity surged. Production picked up.

All of it funneled straight back into her points.
