Chapter 533

Author: Memo Harbor
After hanging up with Cyrus, Thorgan knew he could not keep drifting through life. If he wanted to avoid getting "settled up" later, he had to follow Cyrus' instructions and provide solid intelligence. That was the only way to protect himself and the people of Willowford East.

After some thought, he decided to have a serious talk with Trenton. He pulled on a wool knit cap and stepped outside.

As he prepared to head over, something caught his eye. A slim figure ran toward him in the distance.

  • The Apocalypse Hoarder   Chapter 541

    The sheer weight of the cargo made it obvious that the West Ridge Order had brought a staggering amount of explosives this time.Their march progressed slowly. Florian and his team did not reach Willowford East until noon.Ethan and the others had waited outside the village for quite some time.Thorgan, whom Ethan's group now regarded as a "future member," had also been summoned to greet them.Ethan had treated him with particular warmth in recent days. The disastrous outcome of the last mission had left Ethan eager to redeem himself. Presenting Thorgan, a natural Awakened, would count as a major contribution.The group waited for a long time before Thorgan finally noticed faint movement on the distant horizon. More than 50 soldiers gradually emerged against the endless snowfield.They wore uniform white combat suits and carried weapons wrapped in white cloth. Even at a distance, their formation radiated pressure.For the first time, Thorgan truly understood that these 50-plus s

    Fully armed and carrying the explosives Keira had prepared, Cyrus stepped out of the bunker.Before the West Ridge Order's main force arrived, he intended to fortify the area in advance.His first task was the explosives. He planted dozens of bombs in the snow surrounding the bunker. Even if the enemy knew traps awaited them, they would still have to cross a blast zone to approach. The strategy was completely open. There were no tricks and no deception.He did not know how much damage the explosives would inflict on Awakened fighters. Still, as long as there was even a chance to injure the enemy, he was willing to try.In short order, he buried more than 50 bombs beneath the snow. With a single press of the detonator, he could turn the entire area into an inferno.Next came surveillance. Cloudcrest Manor lacked many things, but security cameras were not among them. The district had once been a top-tier luxury villa community, and its security infrastructure had reflected that stat

    Keira scratched her head sheepishly. "I haven't taken precise measurements, so that's only a rough estimate."Cyrus rubbed his chin. "So, about 1,000 pounds. With that much explosive, it would be difficult to transport without drawing attention."He narrowed his eyes. "What if I detonate it halfway here with a sniper shot? Would that work?"He wanted to eliminate the threat at its source.Keira immediately shook her head. "Boss, I really wouldn't recommend that.""Oh? Why not?""TNT is extremely stable. Bullets won't detonate it, and even fire won't set it off. It requires a detonator."Cyrus promptly abandoned the idea. "I see. Looks like I'll have to rely on good old-fashioned defensive counterattacks."He smiled faintly.'Guess I'll move to Plan B,' Cyrus thought.He looked at Keira. "How's everything I asked you to prepare?"At that, Keira turned around with visible excitement and presented her finished work. "Boss, take a look. Are you satisfied?"Recently, she had sta

    Seeing Cyrus' calm confidence, the women felt noticeably reassured.They worked together to clear the two aboveground floors. With Cyrus' pocket-dimension ability, the process moved at astonishing speed. Within a short time, they had cleaned out new rooms underground and relocated all their belongings.Zoey and Scarlett handled most of the cleaning and organizing. Meanwhile, Barbara and Keira continued their assigned tasks under Cyrus' direction.Cyrus called Barbara over and asked about her progress in hacking into the West Ridge Base's network.She answered honestly, "Their cybersecurity is extremely solid. I've tried multiple intrusion attempts, but every one of them was blocked."Cyrus was not surprised."They're better prepared than we are, both in equipment and in the number of network specialists," he remarked.The people inside the base were the elite of Volaris City.Cyrus did not comment on their morality, but he would never underestimate their intelligence or foresig

    Thorgan committed every word to memory. As soon as he returned home from the meal, he immediately sent all the intel he had gathered to Cyrus.After reviewing the details, Cyrus could not help but see Thorgan in a new light. 'Who would have thought this chubby guy would slowly start getting smarter? Was this the power of love? Damn that so-called power of love.'"I understand. Thanks for the intel. But Thorgan, have you really never considered joining the base? Following me might not be the best path for you." Cyrus spoke with a teasing tone.Thorgan smiled calmly. "Boss, I trust my instincts."Though he had known Cyrus only a short time, Thorgan sensed that Cyrus treated him with honesty.On the other hand, the West Ridge soldiers always made him uneasy. The way they looked at the villagers of Willowford East Village bothered him the most. Their eyes carried the same detached appraisal people gave livestock. The sight left Thorgan deeply uncomfortable.He did not believe Cyrus w

    It was not just Ethan. Every soldier eagerly pulled Thorgan over to eat, drink, and chat with them.A naturally Awakened individual who entered the West Ridge Base would receive captain-level treatment within ACE. That status meant he could very well become their superior one day. Everyone wanted to build a good relationship with him."Trenton, hurry and get people to prepare more food and wine. We're going to have a proper drink with this dude tonight!" Ethan waved at Trenton and ordered him to bring more supplies.Trenton's face stiffened. The higher-ups treated him, the governor, with only lukewarm courtesy, yet they showed such enthusiasm toward the nephew he had always looked down on.The contrast left a bitter taste in his mouth. He did not dare object, though. He could only smile and nod.Even Thorgan had not expected such warmth from the soldiers.After chatting for a while, he finally understood why. People like him were considered key talents within the West Ridge Order

    Zoey hesitated before agreeing. Her conscience wouldn't let her hide, though she despised the neighbors who plotted robbery out of jealousy. In the end, she chose to help Cyrus.He set a condition. "Show me something useful first. Then I'll give you what you want. It's up to you to prove yourself."

    Cyrus saw Zoey's worth clearly. Her surgical skill was genuine—no one without real talent could hold a position at Volaris Hospital.In the Frostfall, medical expertise was as valuable as weapons. Cyrus had stocked plenty of medicine and learned the basics, but he knew better than to think he could

    Vincent: [She is one of Volaris City's famous car models. Look at her face and body, absolutely top tier. I guarantee you will like her. Help me, please.]Cyrus recognized the model at once. Vincent had bought the place only to show off for her. She always dressed to seduce, like a sly vixen, never

    Nine people collapsed, their bodies charred black from head to toe. No one could tell if they were alive or dead, but everyone understood—anyone still breathing wouldn't last long.The sight before them was a waking nightmare. Bodies lay twisted in grotesque shapes. Eyes bulged. Some women couldn't
