All Chapters of The Endgame Chronicles: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

Hayley led her people through two whole days of nonstop fighting inside the tunnels.Using the underground passages, they successfully lured in every zombie within about a quarter mile of Timberfall and wiped them out in waves.Alex had no idea they had discovered Timberfall's hidden tunnels.Everyone stayed underground, splitting up between entrances and launching ambushes. When things got risky, they pulled back into the tunnels and popped out from a different exit to keep fighting.Because of that, this city recapture was unexpectedly easy; so easy that not a single person was injured.And they never had to return to base, either. They hid in the tunnels and even kept working at night.With that strategy, Hayley took another district, and a crucial one at that.From now on, Timberfall's tunnel would be their permanent foothold for pushing into the northern sector.After securing the area, Hayley had the main group clear out supplies from Timberfall.Timberfall was packed wi

There were eight of them in total; four guys and four girls.They just happened to be four couples. The four girls had even shared the same dorm before.With a setup like that, their little group had stayed fairly stable.Of course, there had been messy fights and relationship drama, but in the apocalypse, they relied on each other. They were classmates, after all. No matter how bad things got, it never truly blew up.Until the man in the baseball cap showed up."Ned, you should keep an eye on your girlfriend, or she's gonna run off with that guy," someone sneered.Ned Banks stared at the two of them with burning anger. "Cecilia, get over here."The girl who had spotted Hayley earlier was Cecilia Harris. She was walking beside Griffin now. When she heard Ned, she didn't even look at him. She kept walking with Griffin as she said, "Ignore him. Let's keep talking.""Cecilia!" Ned stormed forward. "Are you into this guy? Is that what this is about?""What are you talking about?

The glass doors slid open from both sides, with a U-shaped lock in the middle. When more than a dozen zombies slammed into them, they instantly forced the biggest gap wider.Countless zombie hands shoved through the crack, snarling and reaching toward the fresh meat cans inside."Aaaah!""Ah!""Help!"The girls on the stairway started screaming all at once."Shut up!" Hayley didn't even have time to deal with Griffin anymore. She scanned the room and shouted, "Block the entrance now!"Only then did the students snap out of it. Ned led the other guys in shoving the already emptied shelves against the front door.With the zombies so close, the stench of rot and blood hit them in the face. Pale bodies pressed into the gap, lifeless like real corpses. Their fingertips were black, the nails abnormally long, scraping glass into powder as they clawed forward. The students' knees went weak just watching.These kids were absolute lottery winners of the apocalypse.They hadn't made i

"I-I can't see anything anymore." Digby clutched his eyes as his classmates scattered, stumbling backward in panic."I-It hurts. Everything hurts… Lizzie! Lizzie! Where are you?""Don't come any closer!" Lizzie backed away in terror. When she hit a shelf, her foot slipped, and she fell hard to the floor.Digby suddenly dropped his hands. There was no trace of life left on his face. His eyes had turned a dead gray, empty and fixed on Lizzie. Then, like a wild animal, he lunged at her.At that exact moment, a cold saber flashed down from the second floor.The blade skewered Digby mid-leap, pinning him to the shelf on the right. The saber went clean through from front to back.The light slowly drained out of his zombie eyes.The students all turned pale.Their hearts were pounding. A few of the girls gagged and threw up on the spot, breaking down in tears.Lizzie stared at Digby's lifeless body, frozen where she sat.Just then, loud pounding came from both the front and back d

"Okay." Ned immediately led Hayley downstairs.This time, everyone was much calmer when they saw the zombies below. The girls were terrified when they saw Digby's corpse, but no one screamed anymore.They kept their presence as low as possible and stayed close behind Hayley. Through the glass doors and windows, they could see a mass of zombies outside, their mouths stretched wide and their faces twisted and horrifying. Their hearts were pounding hard.They had been living on the second floor this whole time and had tried to observe the zombies before, but the things were way too scary. They never dared to actually study them, especially the girls.With steady food and water, none of them had ever forced themselves to really face a zombie up close.Now that they were finally standing right in front of the zombies, so close it felt like they could reach out and bite at any second, the girls with boyfriends clutched onto them tightly.Cecilia and Ned's relationship suddenly look
