All Chapters of The Apocalypse Survival Manual: Chapter 681 - Chapter 690

The poorest survivors had no choice but to evacuate on foot, while government agencies and other official organizations used trucks to transport essential personnel and supplies, sending them ahead to safer areas.The roads were packed with people, and cars could barely move. No one dared honk.Too many survivors had nothing left to lose. Tempers were already at the breaking point, and the smallest argument could turn violent. Blocking a car was nothing. Some people even picked up rocks and smashed the windows.When traffic came to a complete stop, people simply climbed onto the roofs of cars.If the people inside refused to open the doors, they stomped on the roof. If anyone dared get out, another group would rush in and try to steal the vehicle.At that point, plenty of people no longer cared what happened to them.Even with soldiers and police trying to keep order, there was only so much they could do. Once people stopped caring whether they lived or died, threats lost the

But there was no time to figure it out. In an instant, the wind roared, sand and rocks filled the air, and the sky went dark. No one could even tell which way was which.The evacuees farther up the road saw the dust storm first. Screaming in panic, they tried to turn their cars around and get away before it reached them.One driver had barely started turning when the car behind him slammed into his rear bumper after the other driver hit the gas instead of the brake. Neither of them even had time to argue before the dust storm swallowed both vehicles whole."Nicole!" Zeph's expression changed instantly. "Get inside!"Poppy and Cola were nearby and sprinted toward the Hummer, but the storm reached them in the blink of an eye. Zeph instinctively lunged forward, trying to grab them.The violent wind blasted Nicole's face with sand and flying rocks. Something struck her hard in the head, sending a sharp stab of pain through her skull.Sand blew into her eyes, burning so badly that she

The dust storm still showed no sign of ending, but at least Nicole could stay on her feet now. She looked out at the endless yellow haze, but even through her helmet, she couldn't see more than six feet ahead.This was no ordinary dust storm.Back in the storage space, Nicole grew even more uneasy. She had the storage space and was still struggling this badly. If Zeph was hurt, surviving out there would be even harder.Poppy and Zeph both carried emergency kits, but Nicole had no idea whether the storm had torn them away. The kits held some medicine, crackers, and water, but not much.Nicole sat on the couch and stared blankly at the holographic timer as the numbers ticked by. She set an alarm and went back outside every five hours.The first day...The second day...It wasn't until the seventh day that the storm finally started to settle. Visibility improved to about 15 feet, and the wind wasn't nearly as violent, though yellow sand still whipped through the air.The cut on Ni

"Don't kill you?" Nicole pressed the tip of her sword against Gavin's gunshot wound and slowly pushed it in. "After all these years in the apocalypse, hasn't anyone taught you not to mess with a woman who still looks this good?"The blade sank deeper. Gavin screamed, then quickly went still before he could say anything else.Nicole glanced toward the blurry figure disappearing into the blowing sand, pulled on a pair of windproof goggles, and went after him.Blood poured from Steven's wound. He stumbled, collapsed, and watched helplessly as Nicole closed in. He was standing right behind her earlier and saw her pull something out of thin air with his own eyes.He scrambled backward in terror. "Don't come any closer!""Scared now?" Nicole smiled and raised her bloodstained sword. "You didn't seem scared a minute ago."In his panic, Steven blurted out without thinking, "Y-You have a storage space!"The thought filled him with bitter resentment. He had spent the past few years li

Poppy knew exactly what happened to girls who got captured. First, they became playthings. Then they became food.Her eyesight still hadn't fully recovered, and after days of sand blowing into her eyes without treatment, they were still red and swollen.She carefully felt around. Her emergency pack was gone, along with her gun and dagger.The only good news was that the blade strapped to her thigh was still there.Until she understood what was going on, Poppy didn't dare make a move.She had no idea how much time passed before several more women were thrown into the cave.The men shouted filthy comments at them. Many had faces scarred by acid rain burns, making them look like demons straight out of hell.They dumped five women inside, but apparently had other things to do. After locking the door, they left.Poppy's vision was still too blurry to make out their faces clearly. Once she was sure Nicole wasn't among them, she closed her eyes and rested, conserving her strength.Th
