The Apocalypse Survival Manual Chapter 734
Nicole and Zeph would each handle one side of the road. Poppy and Cola would take a back route and circle around ahead of the ambush, then Poppy would drive the truck they had hidden earlier toward them at the agreed time.Everyone knew their role. Nicole quietly doubled back, slipped in behind the ambushers, and found a well-covered position.Right on schedule, Poppy appeared at the far end of the road and slowly drove the truck toward them.The people hiding on both sides immediately perked up. "Dean, that's the truck. They're back."The truck crawled along, and the bed looked loaded. They had obviously come back with another big haul.If the Cyclone Crew pulled this off, the cargo would be worth a lot of points, enough to keep them supplied for months.Life had only gotten harder. None of them had eaten a decent meal in months, and most of the crew barely had any strength left. Just thinking about getting their hands on that haul made them eager to move.It was time. They w

Nicole drove the truck while Zeph took the SUV. As soon as they left the base, they realized someone was following them.Neither of them panicked. They checked in over the radio, then split off in opposite directions.Kai hesitated for a second before shouting, "Split up! Don't lose either of them!"The truck and SUV looked filthy and worn on the outside, but both ran perfectly.Nicole pulled on body armor and a combat helmet, then stepped on the gas. She led the men chasing her around for a while before leaving them far behind.Once she reached a secluded ravine, she moved both herself and the truck into the storage space.The Cyclone Crew pushed their beat-up vehicle as hard as they could, only to reach the ravine and find nothing.The truck was gone.Before they could make sense of it, a gunshot cracked through the air, and everyone dove for cover.A moment later, they realized the shot had blown out one of their tires. For a second, they thought someone was shooting at the

By the same token, if people outside the base had something valuable, they could use these brokers to find buyers inside.The profit on each deal wasn't huge, but it was much safer than scavenging. Over time, more and more people got into the business.Of course, none of it happened out in the open.Nicole thought it over. Supplies passed through so many hands that tracing anything back to the original seller wouldn't be easy.So even if they traded rare metals and caught the military's attention, any investigation would take time.The tectonic plates could collide at any moment, and they desperately needed those metals to build emergency equipment.Some risks were worth taking. If the military ever found enough evidence to come after them, Nicole and Zeph could always take the submarine and leave.After hearing her out, Zeph agreed the plan could work. Their first priority was getting the submarine.Neither of them wanted to risk unnecessary delays, so they didn't rest for lon

After the sandstorm, Marcus's car took in so much sand and dust that it eventually broke down, forcing him to walk the last few dozen miles to the military base.Eric gave him guns and medicine before he left, but Marcus ran into a group of robbers along the way. He fought hard enough to hold on to half his supplies, only to use up the rest over the next few months.Now, he was worse off than a beggar. He couldn't even afford a decent meal.Marcus didn't bother pretending he didn't need the help. He said to Nicole, "I'll treat it as a loan. I'll pay you back someday."He had no idea whether Eric made it safely to Jazenville or got caught in the volcanic eruption and sandstorms. So much time passed, and Marcus still hadn't heard a word from him.But worrying wouldn't change anything. Right now, he had no way to reach Jazenville or make it back to Westbridge.Nicole didn't feel like going back and forth with him. "Fine. Just remember, you owe me double."They still had scavenging
The Apocalypse Survival Manual Chapter 730
Going solo wasn't realistic, so Marcus swallowed his pride and joined a scavenger team.He thought he had picked a strong group, only to find out there was always someone tougher and even more desperate. People were willing to risk their lives over piles of scrap metal.His team eventually got into a fight with another group. If Marcus hadn't dropped to the ground and played dead, he probably would've been stabbed to death.All over a pile of worthless junk.Once, he bought private planes and yachts without thinking twice. He even spent seven figures on a pink diamond without blinking. Now, he was risking his life over scrap metal."Haha... Hahaha..." The absurdity of it suddenly hit him, and Marcus started laughing. Before he knew it, the laughter turned into tears.Marcus couldn't believe he had actually broken down crying in front of Nicole. The embarrassment only made him feel worse.But disasters didn't care that he was once the son of the richest man in the city. Witho

After two bowls of noodles took the edge off his hunger, Marcus finally slowed down and started eating with the polished manners he had grown up with.Then he said angrily, "I found the punk who stole my car."Nicole, who had just decided to be nice to him for once, nearly choked on her noodles. "Cough... Cough..."Seriously? She had already given back half his medicine to make up for it, and he was still hung up on that car.Nine years later, and he still hadn't let it go.Nicole was so annoyed she almost dumped her bowl over his head.If those three off-road vehicles hadn't been worth so much, she never would've given back medicine she had already considered hers.Still annoyed, she forced a smile. "Really? Who stole it?""They got away. I couldn't catch them." Marcus kept eating as he cursed under his breath. "Those punks better hope I never find them. If I do, I'll tear them apart!"Nicole's patience finally ran out, and her voice turned cold. "It's not like yours

"Ah!"Nicole Floyd jolted upright in bed, gasping. Sweat streamed down her forehead, her eyes unfocused and hollow.The sight in front of her cut through the haze in her mind.This was her old apartment, the one from before the apocalypse.Ding, ding…Text alerts kept chiming. She grabbed her p

Nicole didn't hesitate. She blocked Edward right away.Less than a minute later, her phone rang again. It was an unfamiliar number.She didn't need to guess; this was Edward's classmate or one of his friends.Given a second chance at life, Nicole had zero interest in being taken for a fool. She w

Nicole never expected the new resident of 1801 to be the same young man who had helped her at the courier station.He looked mildly surprised, too. He nodded once at her, then went back to work.Up close, he was striking in a cold, sharp way. He was tall and lean, with broad shoulders and clean li

Two miles was nothing. The Hummer reached the entrance to the complex in just a few minutes.Nicole handed the man 400 dollars, thanking him for saving her and for ignoring traffic rules.His voice stayed cool. "No need. I was heading this way, anyway."Seeing he wouldn't take it, she didn't push
