All Chapters of The Apocalypse Survival Manual: Chapter 741 - Chapter 750

Irene dug up the supplies the Clarks had hidden outside the villa community, hired a few armed escorts, and headed for the military base with Camila.But as soon as they reached Grayport, the men turned on them. If a military patrol hadn't come along when it did, Irene and Camila would've been killed.Getting to the base on their own clearly wasn't going to work.So when the soldiers questioned Irene, she lied. She said Arthur was family and Camila was his daughter.She didn't feel guilty about it. Arthur had supposedly stayed single all these years because of her, and the truth was, she had never completely gotten over him either.Once the soldiers heard they were Arthur's family, they helped Irene get in touch with him.They gave her a military satellite phone, and for the first time in more than 20 years, Irene heard Arthur's voice again.The sound of his voice brought all her old regrets rushing back.If she had known they would meet again someday, she never would've given

Deep down, Camila still believed Arthur resented Irene for marrying someone else and resented her for being raised by another man.He never truly accepted either of them. Supporting two more people cost him nothing, so he let them stay close. Sometimes, Camila even wondered if keeping them around was his own quiet way of getting back at Irene for leaving him all those years ago.As a senior officer at the military base, Arthur had no shortage of options. If he wanted a woman in his life, he could've had his pick. Irene, meanwhile, was already middle-aged and only came looking for him again after her husband died.Camila couldn't exactly blame him for being bitter.What bothered her even more was how little Irene seemed to care about Camila's future once they reached the base. Almost all her attention went to Arthur.Arthur wanted Camila to enlist, and Irene sided with him even though she knew Camila wasn't cut out for that kind of life.Then, when Camila asked him to help her

The staff member's face lit up when Nicole and Zeph walked in. "The inspection results are back. I was just about to contact you."To everyone's surprise, every batch passed.The timing couldn't have been better. The shipment filled a critical shortage at the base's factories, and production quickly ramped up around the clock.Crews worked in shifts day and night, racing to build more boats, survival pods, and submarines before the next disaster hit.Once the receipt was verified, the paperwork was signed, stamped, and finalized.Nicole took the documents to the points exchange center. The employee behind the counter stared at the total, ran the numbers several times, and only entered it into the system after confirming that it really was nine figures.Just like that, Nicole became the richest scavenger the base had ever seen.In fact, aside from the base itself, she was probably the richest person there.The employee smiled as he handed everything back, but still suggested s

Nicole never expected to run into someone she knew at the military base. It was Ethan.He had just come in from outside and looked just as surprised to see them. His face immediately lit up.Nicole stared at him. "You guys made it here?"The excitement in Ethan's eyes faded a little. "Not all of us. Just me and a few others.""What about Captain Landon and your dad?""Captain Landon led the Westbridge residents toward Jazenville. My dad and the others went with them. We just..."Parents always thought about their children's future before their own.Isaac didn't want to become a burden on his son, so he insisted that Ethan go to the military base.Ethan wasn't the only one. The younger, more capable residents of Oakhaven Gardens were all encouraged to try their luck there.Ethan and Isaac had relied on each other for years. Isaac was getting older, and with one disaster following another, no one knew how much longer he would make it.Ethan refused at first, but Isaac had alrea

Irene refused to believe Arthur knew the truth.The base hospital couldn't run paternity tests, and even if he suspected something, years of disasters had wiped out most of the evidence. There was no realistic way for him to dig up what happened more than 20 years ago.Besides, ever since she and Camila arrived at the base, neither of them mentioned Nicole. Even when Arthur first asked where they had been living before, Irene never brought up the villa community."Don't panic. I'll ask."Irene took a deep breath, picked up the radio, and stepped onto the balcony to contact Arthur's secretary.-The military strategic zone was more than 20 miles from the residential district. On the way, they passed the base hospital, farmland, the industrial sector, and the airfield before finally reaching the coastline.Once they entered the restricted zone, Nicole saw armed guards at their posts, military units running drills, and radar arrays rotating steadily on raised platforms.The parkin
