Chapter 286

Author: Hugh White
"Oh, hey. You guys are here."

Oscar tugged at the corner of his mouth. The torn cheek muscle split wider, and bright red blood poured out in heavy drops. It ran down his face, smeared across his lips, and soaked his teeth, turning everything a vivid red in seconds.

"I killed her. She was a zombie! She turned into a zombie… I killed a zombie… I killed her!"

As Oscar spoke, he broke down crying.

"I saved the last bit of water for her. Every time we got food, I made sure she had some. If I didn't give it to her, she'd get mad. I loved her so much. Why did she still try to drag me down with her? If she wanted to die, she could've done it herself! Why was she so selfish? She deserved it! She deserved it! I'd still kill her if I had the chance!"

"Oscar, you're turning into…"

"I'm not a zombie!"

Oscar looked up. The blood-soaked color drained from his face as dark blue veins surfaced beneath his pale skin. A sharp, eerie light burst from his eyes.

"I'm not! I don't wanna become a z

    "Send me all the data on Milky Way Base," Hayley said.An armored vehicle sped down an empty road.After six months of support from Liam and the others, not only had they managed to keep 27 small bases alive, they had also reopened the roads between bases.If you want to survive well, you fix the roads first.Hayley's vehicle raced forward without obstruction.A thick stack of files was handed to her.Hayley began reading the reports carefully.Milky Way Base sat on the outskirts of Brookville. Before the apocalypse, it had been a large suburban amusement park with roads leading in every direction.Brookville's subway system had even extended one line so that its final stop was right here.Before the apocalypse, this place was a well-known attraction. And when everything collapsed, it was summer vacation, which was peak season for visitors.As a result, a large portion of Milky Way Base's survivors had been tourists.Those staying in nearby hotels and vacation rentals had al

    While the drought continued, Liam was stationed at Milky Way Base providing support.On another supply drop day, as he watched the ample supplies Hayley had sent arrive right on schedule, he couldn't help but think of what she had told him last year.The next three years would be a continuous drought, with no harvests at all.As cartons of instant noodles, dried meal packs, and bacon kept dropping from the sky, waves stirred in his chest.Hayley was always a step ahead of everyone else.If he hadn't followed Hayley into the city back then, he would probably still be trapped in Base K1, spending every day worrying about how it could survive in a dead-end situation like this.But now, with Hayley's supplies raining down nonstop, he felt a shock he had never experienced before.At that moment, Kit, the leader of Milky Way Base, came rushing over."Captain Caldwell! Great news!""What is it?""Captain Reid just took another district! Aecraton only has one mall left!"Hearing tha

    At that moment, inside Milky Way Base."Captain, look! What's that?"After their base leader, Kit, sent out a distress call a week ago, the base was swallowed once again by a wave of zombie attacks.After barely holding out for two days, their population dropped by another third.It wasn't just people they were losing. Their supplies were completely exhausted. They had no food, no weapons, and no way to break out.They were trapped in total despair. There was no doubt they would be the next ants swallowed by the zombie tide.And then, Kit heard the sound of drones flying overhead.Still confused, he looked up and saw two words swaying beneath the drones.Haylight League.At the same time, supply bags began dropping one after another.In that instant, Kit was completely stunned."It's instant noodles and pasta!""There are dried meal packs, too! Captain! Captain, we've got vegetables again!""Mom, I haven't seen vegetables in so long…""And weapons! We have guns now!"As

    "Alex, once you're done, compile the actual population numbers and weapon stockpiles for each base."Hayley thought it through carefully."Based on each base's population, give them seven days' worth of food. Fully equip them with weapons in one go. No base is allowed to relocate. They must stay put and hold the line against the zombies. I'll resupply them every seven days.""Got it!" Alex replied. The purpose of those small white dots was simple. Hold back the zombie tide and form the outer defensive ring."Our league will split into three forces," Hayley said. "One force will support the weaker small bases. They can't be allowed to collapse. Ideally, they should even push back a little. The second force goes to Crestford and works with Tomorrow Base to pull them out. The third force stays in Aecraton and finishes taking the city completely."Hayley laid out the future plan at high speed.They would secure Aecraton, Brookville, and Crestford all at once.Aecraton would serve

    Only after a long pause did Hayley finally speak."Sixty percent," Alex replied coldly.Hayley propped her chin on her hand and thought for a long time. "Put the word out. When 95% of the bases come asking me for help, I'll agree and provide unified support. But all of them have to listen to me, including Tomorrow Base."Hayley was gambling, and she was aiming for the biggest possible win.She wanted every base to become part of her power, standing with her against the zombie tide. She planned to seize these last one or two years and go all in.If she won, humanity would turn the tables. But if she lost… She would probably be pushed back to square one, clinging to her small base and scraping by.But she took the bet anyway.It couldn't get worse than her previous life.The lives of those bases were never her primary concern.Ideas like "greater power means greater responsibility" had never applied to her.In fact, in her eyes, it worked the other way around. First comes the s

    Hayley sat in her chair without saying a word.She held a cup of fruit tea in her hand, eyes fixed on Alex's laptop screen.In her mind, she kept weighing and recalculating.At the end of the day, someone like her always thought in terms of gains and losses.She first reviewed the chips she held. Over the past full year of the apocalypse, through careful planning step by step, she had built an ironclad shelter stronghold of her own.That stronghold had abundant supplies and solid defensive power.She had five core team members of her own and sixteen dogs. These were her most basic assets and her absolute foundation. They guaranteed that no matter what happened, her safety and supplies were secured.Beyond that, she had more than 80 residents. Those residents farmed thousands of acres of land for her, produced food and materials, and developed power systems. Their output was enough to sustain all the survivors they currently had.On top of that, she led a league made up of nearl
