The Apocalypse Survival Manual Chapter 298
Even if there were still grain reserves left, the southern coastal regions sat too low geographically to ever qualify as major national grain storage locations. At best, they only kept limited reserves locally, and most supplies had always been shipped in from other states.Now that disasters had hit the entire world, every region was struggling to survive on its own. Nobody was going to loosen their grip on their grain stockpiles and hand food over to somebody else.Even if the central government ordered redistribution, the largest bases would get priority first. By the time anything reached smaller cities, there probably wouldn't be much left.In the end, people still had to save themselves. Nobody could survive forever waiting for handouts.No matter what happened, Nicole believed things would turn out better this time around, even when the earthquake finally came.And so, life continued one day at a time.Jeremy and the others leaving actually made things easier for Nicole

Nicole stood there in a daze, watching Hughie's group carry their things off the 18th floor and disappear down the stairwell step by step.She hesitated for a moment, then finally lost the fight with herself and hurried to the stairs."Jeremy!"The three of them stopped and turned back."If things don't work out in Halloway, come back."Hughie and Jeremy both nodded. "No matter where we end up, you'll always be our friend."She didn't walk them out after that. She simply stood there watching until they finally disappeared from the 18th floor and even their faint footsteps faded away.Cola let out soft whines, brushing against Nicole from time to time.An hour later, Zeph returned. Seeing Nicole sitting quietly on the couch, staring off into space, he walked over and sat beside her. "You don't need to worry so much. They can handle themselves. I already warned them to stay alert on the road."The two vehicles were supposed to keep about fifty yards between them at all times.

Nicole also brought out 20 bags of salt.In this kind of heat, people sweated constantly. Without enough salt, the body would break down fast.Nicole picked up the walkie talkie and called Jeremy and Hughie over to help move supplies.They were already packing on their side, anyway. They planned to leave within the next couple of days.Looking at the mountain of supplies, Hughie, who normally acted carefree no matter what happened, suddenly started crying. "Nicole... Are you really not coming with us?"People crossed paths, then went their separate ways. Everybody had their own road to take.Nicole waved them over to sit down. "Back when we cleared out the office tower, we collected all those seeds. Other than the vegetable ones, none of them are useful to me. How do you guys want to split them?"Jeremy spoke first. "Seeds are valuable, but the three of us don't know the first thing about farming. Giving them to us would just waste them. Besides, Zeph repaired two vehicl

Weasel crossed out several items on the list immediately. "The rest I can get, but it'll take time.""How long?" Nicole asked."About five days." He paused before adding shamelessly, "The deep freeze and this extreme heat, nothing’s easy to find anymore. Prices are insane right now. At least 1,000 pounds of potatoes.”Nicole almost laughed in his face.The two of them haggled back and forth for ages. By the time they finished, Nicole was sweaty, irritated, and thoroughly over it.They finally settled on 500 pounds of potatoes.Once they agreed on a meeting spot, Nicole jumped on the mountain bike she had gotten from Victor and hurried home before the heat could cook her alive.That night, Zeph contacted her over the radio and told her to come downstairs to the parking garage.The armored Hummer was finally fixed.After he reinstalled the stripped components and replaced several damaged parts with pieces salvaged from the luxury car club, the vehicle looked whole again.Honest

Nicole quickly pulled two bathtubs full of water out of the storage space and shoved Zeph toward the bathroom."You stink."Ever since they got back from the ceramics factory, Zeph had been showering at Nicole's place.One rinse to wash off the grime, another to properly clean up from head to toe.By the time he came out toweling off his hair, Nicole had already placed a glass of iced tea on the table for him."How's the car repair going?" she asked.Zeph downed a few satisfied gulps before answering."Mine should be salvageable. The others depend on luck. Too many parts are damaged. We'll have to strip pieces from other vehicles, then quietly scavenge more parts ourselves and see if we can piece together another working car."Nicole thought the whole process sounded exhausting. "Once your truck's fixed, just repair one more for Jeremy's group. That's enough."Going out to strip abandoned vehicles for parts meant dealing not only with other survivors, but also with the deadly

Fortunately, Hughie's group could handle themselves, and they weren't walking around unarmed. Nobody managed to take advantage of them.As the floodwaters dropped to knee level, Zeph finally stopped sitting on the sidelines and started going out with Hughie's group to look for vehicles. If they waited much longer, most of the remaining cars would be stripped for parts or damaged beyond repair.They weren't the only ones moving quickly.City crews had already begun large-scale recovery work. Excavators and drilling rigs appeared throughout the area. Some teams were digging wells, while others started building public restroom facilities. Everything moved with surprising efficiency, as if the entire recovery process had already been planned long ago.Under the relentless heat, water evaporated at an unbelievable speed. The thick layers of sludge covering Crownview Residences dried and cracked apart within a single day.At noon, temperatures climbed to 127 degrees. Standing outsid
