All Chapters of The Endgame Chronicles: Chapter 631 - Chapter 640

As Hayley's words fell one after another, the expressions around the room began to change."Looks like you refuse to admit your crimes.""You're way too stubborn. That makes your guilt unforgivable."Hayley looked at them coldly."Spare me the righteous accusations," she scoffed. "You saw our base becoming a threat, and it scared you. That's why the three of you joined forces to destroy us. After all, this world has always been survival of the fittest. But I'm no criminal."She looked slowly from one group to the next."You're the ones slaughtering people without hesitation. When zombies break through, you don't care how many civilians die. You run those arena games and bet on human lives. You treat ordinary people like animals. You're the ones who deserve judgment.""Shut up!" Gerard roared. "How we run our base is none of your business! But you said one thing right. This world has always been survival of the fittest. The winners write the rules."And today, you lost! You dese

"Put Nathaniel down!" Lance said coldly. "Do that, and I'll spare your life.""Lance, are you insane? She can't leave here alive!""Yes, she has to die!"Abilities flared all around the room.Everyone charged forward.Hayley was strong, but the people surrounding her were all high-level Gifted. Most were level 5 or above, and even the weakest were at least level 3.With this many powerful fighters, even a deity would have trouble surviving.Lance's words were ignored.The crowd surged toward Hayley.Suddenly, something strange happened.Their gifts vanished. The speed-enhanced fighters instantly slowed to normal human speed.A guard running forward with a massive war hammer suddenly staggered as the weight crashed down on his own arms. Elemental gifts disappeared, and even rare abilities failed.One inventory-variant Gifted panicked as supplies began spilling out of his storage space right onto the floor."Who said I was negotiating with you?" Hayley stood at the cente

This was something Hayley had already thought through.The three Ark bases had been built before the apocalypse by powerful nations as places meant to preserve humanity.Their infrastructure was incredibly advanced, and each base could support hundreds of thousands of people.Places like that already had solid foundations; there was no reason to abandon them.Inside each base were fully developed farming zones and livestock areas. The systems were already mature.The people who stayed could produce their own food and still generate surplus.More importantly, the three bases could become shelters for survivors across the Midwest region. Anyone struggling to survive nearby could find refuge there.And if something ever went wrong again, Hayley would have several fallback locations scattered across the region.After weighing everything carefully, she made her decision.The three bases would remain.She appointed temporary base directors for each one.Ark One would be led by Gid

The zombies below opened their mouths as wide as they could.Their hungry eyes stared upward, as if they were demanding food from the sky itself.Hungry.So damn hungry.They had been starving for years!Hayley's gaze moved slowly across the horde. Then, it shifted to a nearby compound surrounded by rows of tall trees. The building was carefully hidden by thick vegetation planted on all sides. Inside stood several long, rectangular structures. Large characters were painted across the walls.[Fight well. Win battles.]That was the Defense Office.Unlike the streets outside, which were packed with zombies, the compound itself was almost empty."No stationed troops there," Liam said. "Maybe a dozen guards at most."Hayley nodded.That was their target.But the compound didn't have a place to land a helicopter.So they had already worked out a plan.They would land on the closest commercial building. From there, they wouldn't need to fight their way down to the street.Ins

When the swarm of flies finally drifted away, everyone got a clear look at the floor.The corpses were smeared across the hallway. White clusters of fly eggs covered the rotting flesh.Several people immediately bent over and threw up.Hayley looked down at the body propped against the elevator doors.Compared to the others, this man had died the most intact. Still, flies had laid eggs all over his scalp, and the dried remains of his brain had hardened into a crust.Beside his body lay a staff badge."Griffin. Pick that up.""Yes, ma'am."Griffin stepped forward immediately and retrieved it. He wiped it clean with a piece of paper and handed it to her.The badge read, [Project Manager. Osbert Greene.]Hayley studied the name for a moment, one eyebrow lifting slightly.She scanned the entire floor.Aside from the faint buzzing of distant flies, the place was silent.Then, she turned and continued downstairs with the group.The next floor down was locked. The one below that
