Chapter 154

Author: Ada Plus
The moment Nicole finished speaking, the older woman's face went pale, and she didn't dare say another word.

Afraid Nicole might not be done killing, she turned and hurried off.

The others broke out in cold sweat, standing there like they had lost their voices, not daring to say a thing.

What were they thinking, getting involved in someone else's business?

Terrified of drawing the attention of a killer, they scattered after the old woman.

Cola broke free from the leash and rushed over, pawi

  • The Apocalypse Survival Manual   Chapter 366

    Over the next few days, Zeph didn't go anywhere. He trained Cola and Poppy and sparred with Nicole.Meals showed up on time, three times a day.When boredom hit, they played cards. Figuring Poppy might struggle, they paired her up with Cola.Unless someone from the base came looking, the four of them didn't step outside at all.Before the apocalypse, that kind of isolation would've driven anyone insane. After two years of disasters, it barely registered.These days, staying inside was the real advantage.Meanwhile, the conflict between Ironvale and Drakehold Base kept heating up.Felix played it cautious, unwilling to risk what he had built. Drakehold, on the other hand, was aggressive and ruthless, pushing harder every day.It was easy to get used to comfort, but hard to give it up.They used to bring in truckloads of supplies every day. Life had been easy.Now, with the fighting, they barely managed half a truck. The people below were starting to feel it.These were men wh

    Felix cared too much about appearances, and Zeph's words left him with no good way to respond. He forced a smile. "You might not know this, but they rolled out an armored vehicle today. Flattened our checkpoint and barricades. If they didn't have backing, there's no way they'd get something like that.""An armored vehicle?" Zeph said. "Who actually saw it?"Anthony stepped in right away, trying to smooth it over. "One of our guys made it back alive and reported it.""From what I know, military and police equipment is tightly controlled. There's no way an armored vehicle just ends up out there. Are you sure he didn't panic or start seeing things from heatstroke?"That didn't sit well with Anthony. "Come on. We sent people to check. The damage wasn't something a normal vehicle could do."Zeph only smiled and said nothing.Anthony felt the irritation creeping up. They had gone all out to host him, not to watch him act above it all.He held it back. "Then tell us, do you have a be

    The whole roasted lamb had been done just right, the heat perfect. Nicole didn't hold back and dug in.She only had one sheep left in her storage space, and that wouldn't last long. When there was good food, you ate your fill.As she ate, she said casually to Felix, "Fresh meat like this isn't easy to come by these days. Especially lamb.""Yeah, it's not easy out there," Felix said, "but in Ironvale Base, if you've got the ability, you eat well."Anthony jumped in right away. "Exactly. Stick with Felix, and you won't just have lamb. Beef's no problem, either."Nicole chewed slowly. "This tastes like northern-style lamb. You don't get this kind of flavor from coastal stock.""Good eye," Anthony said with a grin. "Came in from the northwest."Nicole raised a brow. "The south went through extreme cold before this heat. The northwest should've been worse. Hard to believe livestock made it through."Anthony seemed pleased with himself. "There's a lot you don't know. While we're deal

    Poppy might be young, but she picked up on things adults missed. She edged back behind Zeph, clearly uneasy.That left Felix looking a little awkward.Zeph said, "She's shy around strangers.""It's fine. Kids are like that. Come on, have a seat."Felix took the head of the table and sighed. "I owe you an apology. You just got here. I should've given you a proper welcome. Instead, Drakehold came looking for trouble and ruined things for all of us."Even in the apocalypse, there should be rules. First come, first served. But Drakehold acts like they answer to no one. They rolled in with an armored vehicle and wiped out our people like it was nothing."He spoke with growing intensity, his voice tight with anger.Zeph listened without saying a word.The silence stretched.Anthony stepped in. "Exactly. Some of our guys already took people to settle the score. They'll be back later. Hope you understand."Nicole smiled faintly. "With you in charge, Felix, I'm sure Ironvale will co

    After leaving the storage space, Nicole and Zeph kept tidying up, making small talk as they went.Before long, it was noon, and someone came by with lunch.It was a spread of meat and vegetables, along with a bottle of strong liquor."I don't drink. Should we send it back or keep it?""It's Felix's gesture. We'll keep it. Cola likes a sip now and then.""Woof." The little drunk circled Nicole, clearly excited."See that? Just hearing the word gets him going."They kept talking, but Nicole had no intention of touching the base's food. The chances of it being poisoned were low for now, but it still didn't sit right with her.She stored it away and pulled out their own supplies.Poppy put on a show, poking at her food. "Zeph, this cured meat tastes weird. It's not as good as Nicole's.""Don't waste food. There are people out there chewing bark just to stay alive. When we get the chance, Nicole can cook for you again."After they finished eating, they pulled all the curtains shu

    There were no surveillance cameras in the apartment, probably because Ironvale Base didn't have the equipment or the people to run them.They gave the smaller room to Poppy. Nicole crouched down and said, "Cola, you're in charge of watching her.""Woof!" Cola took the assignment without hesitation.Nicole and Zeph took the master bedroom and started getting settled.Using the bathroom as an excuse, they slipped into the storage space. Zeph spoke first. "What do you think of Felix?"Nicole let out a cold laugh. "All flash, no substance."Just another ruthless thug, using the apocalypse to build power, trying to dress himself up as something above the street muscle, and ending up looking like a joke."They've got no humanity left. We need to keep Poppy safe."Nicole had suspected it before, but today confirmed it. A man who could hand out girls barely in their teens like that wasn't just corrupt. He was rotten to the core.Zeph looked at her. "Were they pretty?"Nicole blinke

    In a world like this, eating someone else's food was basically taking their life, even if Zeph had more than enough.Nicole waited until he finished before speaking. "I still need to apply medicine on your shoulder."Her technique was solid, but Zeph looked a little stiff. "Poppy can help me later

    Hearing his description, Nicole figured it wasn't too serious and asked out of habit, "Have you eaten?""Not yet. Poppy's making something."Poppy, cooking breakfast? She couldn't even reach the stove."She's got to learn sooner or later."True. Kids in this world didn't get the luxury of being

    Even though Nicole was working, and she trusted Cola as a reliable partner, she still didn't fully turn her back on him.Every so often, she would glance behind her, staying alert in case someone tried to snatch their stuff.And then she turned around and saw Poppy pulling a large kitchen knife ou

    Wh-what kind of monster was Nicole?"My dog's picky. He only eats legs, and they've got to be fresh."Cola dropped into an attack stance, chest muscles bunching tight, lips peeled back as killing intent radiated off him. He barked, as if saying, "That's right. I like legs only, the kind that's f
