The Endgame Chronicles (by Hugh White) novel Chapter 641

Chapter 641

“You wanna go downstairs?” The man in front looked at Hayley’s group with a calculating gleam in his eyes. “Yes,” Liam said calmly. “Don’t worry. We’re not here to hurt anyone. Just step aside and let us pass.”

“No deal. If you want us to move, there’s a price.”

“What kind of price?”

“You give us 100…no, 200 pounds of food. And 5 weapons for the toll.”

The man sized them up from head to toe.

Everyone in Hayley’s group was armed and geared up like professionals. Anyone could see they were loaded.

When a fat prize like that walked into their hands, they couldn’t let it go easily.

After the man finished talking, Liam glanced back at Hayley. “Maybe we can give them some food?”

Hayley lifted her eyes slightly. “Your call. But the weapons stay with us.”

Liam nodded and looked back down. “We can give you food. Weapons are off the table.”

“No weapons, no passage.”

In the next second, every person above raised their rifles, the dark barrels pointing straight down.

Offering food was already generous, They weren’t bloodthirsty raiders. But if the people below kept pushing their luck, nobody was going to play nice.

In the apocalypse, power decided everything.

The men downstairs saw the wall of gun barrels and instinctively stepped back. The leader swallowed hard.

“Fine. You can go down,” he said quickly. “But we want 400 pounds of food.”

“Four hundred?” Hayley let out a dry laugh. “You’ll get a hundred. Take it or leave it.”

“Wasn’t it 200 before?”

Hayley looked straight at him. “Say one more word, and you won’t even get 100.

The man shut his mouth immediately.

He licked his lips, staring at the group in front of him. The regret hit him hard. If he had agreed earlier, they probably would we given 200 pounds without arguing

But now

“How about a little more?” he tried again. “A hundred and fifty”

“Wait, why is it going down?”

“Thirty,” Hayley said evenly

If Hayley decided to give them nothing, what could he even do about it?

Seeing them finally back down, Hayley gave a faint smile. She signaled to her people, and one by one, they jumped down, moving through the path the group reluctantly cleared for them.

When it was Hayley’s turn, she walked past the man and tossed him a sack.

Inside was 50 pounds of rice.

The man scrambled to catch it. The people behind him stared at the bag with shining eyes.

Rice!

They hadn’t eaten rice in ages. And there were 50 pounds of it! For a group like theirs, that would last a long time.

By the time Hayley’s team reached the sixth floor, the man and a few others followed them down the stairs. The door ahead was still locked.

He pulled out a key and opened it.

“You’d better hurry,” he said shrewdly. “If you plan to stay here overnight, there’s an overnight fee.”

“Yeah, yeah. Get lost,” Hayley said with a glance.

The man looked over the entire group before slowly backing away with his people.

Still, they didn’t leave the floor completely. They stayed nearby, watching.

After checking the sixth floor carefully, Hayley’s group confirmed it was a good spot to set up a zipline to the building across the

street.

Once they picked the exact position, Derek swung the cable and hurled the grappling hook through a window of the opposite Defense Office.
