The Apocalypse Survival Manual Novels & Stories

At night, I could hear men wailing, women screaming, and children crying without end. As expected, the most terrifying thing in the apocalypse was still humanity. Weeks passed, and most people had completely run out of supplies. A group of people banded together to head out in search of food and supplies. However, they got into a bloody fight over a bottle of water. Meanwhile, another group of people gave in to their darker impulses and began robbing other households and killing people for supplies.

Ray couldn't help clicking his tongue. Luckily, he hadn't been greedy and had returned early. Otherwise, he would've had to spend the night outside. Even though his car had been modified with excellent insulation, and he had top-grade cold-weather gear, sleeping in a car was uncomfortable—and unsafe. Who knew what kind of accident might happen in the middle of the night? In the apocalypse, you had to be careful about everything. Safety came first. … Building 4. Inside an apartment, seven men were drinking soup, each with a large bowl. They ate ravenously, sweat beading on their foreheads.

This time, I needed to make sure that I could stock up on enough supplies for my family's survival. After entrusting Joyce to Mom, I drove away from home once again. This time, I drove to another supermarket to avoid rousing suspicion from the employees of the previous supermarket. I kept loading my shopping cart with general supplies like toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, and facial cleansers. Hygiene was equally important in the apocalypse. If we were to fall sick, we wouldn't be able to seek out a doctor at all. After filling my cart with the basic necessities, I rushed over to the apparel section. Cold-protection supplies like down jackets, blankets, and sleeping bags were on my priorit

He approached Shawn and whisper to his ear, “This is how simple my advice for you, just make sure you don’t die, or else, I will be the one who will kill you whether you’re in hell or heaven.” “W-what do you mean?” his nervousness started to cripple his body. He sighed in frustration, "It seems that I have no choice but to tell you," he walked towards him, "Chaos and destruction are on their way to hunt you so you need to prepare for what's coming. Always remember that you are the key." Shawn shakes his head in disagreement, "I don't understand what you're talking about. You must be mistaken." The man smiled again at him, “You’ll know soon enough, but it’s time for me to go so I’ll see you a

I didn’t expect the patch to come so soon. In the second month after the battle, the rooftop radio suddenly crackled to life with a crisp broadcast voice. "The Atlas Geothermal Initiative is now active. Surface temperatures will gradually recover. Rescue is on the way." Rhys and I just stared at each other. So this wasn’t a solo survival game after all. It was online, and the admins had finally logged in. A week later, a military helicopter landed in the open lot. Registration and verification went quickly. The officer in charge clapped me on the shoulder. "Turning the apocalypse into a warehouse operation! You’re one of a kind."

Jane was the first to react, cursing at me, “You bitch, what nonsense are you spouting—an ability? Go die!” David immediately turned to Victor with forced respect. “Mr. Kane, my nephew has a fever. He’s probably about to awaken an ability too. Please kill Apple and avenge my son! Our whole family will follow you to the death and do whatever you command!” “I can die right now.” I looked Victor straight in the eye. “No one knows how many years this apocalypse will last. But I can promise you this—you won’t find anyone else who can give you clean water as quickly as I can.”

He was right. Vincent Reed buying Apex. The military moving into the area earlier than she remembered. The countdown changing to eleven days. None of it was normal. And now something from the apocalypse was already appearing in the city. They were still supposed to have eleven days. But this was already happening. “This is bigger than food and fuel,” Amelia said. Ian looked at her. “Has this ever happened in your first timeline?” “No.” She kept her eyes on the truck. "The air didn't turn toxic until long after civilization fell. By the time this started happening, people were already fighting over food.”

I had another chance. I could avoid Daniel. I could stop begging my family to choose me. I could prepare before the shops emptied and the streets became dangerous. I had ninety-two days. For the first time in months, I wasn't thinking about how to survive until tomorrow. I was thinking about how to survive the entire apocalypse. I wiped my face and reached for my phone. My savings were small, but they were a beginning. I would need money, medicine, food, and a secure place to stay. I would have to be careful about whom I trusted and make decisions based on what I knew, not what I wished people would do for me.

Pale text formed at the lower edge of my vision. [Storage parameters confirmed.] [Soft capacity limit detected.] [Upgrade path available through consistent preparation tasks.] [New Task issued: Acquire 30 days of emergency food without drawing attention.] [Reward: 20 Points. Minor storage expansion upon completion.] I read it twice. Thirty days of emergency food. For one person that was manageable. Rice, beans, oats, oil, salt, and some canned protein. Spread across multiple quiet trips. No bulk warehouse runs. No online orders that created records. The kind of accumulation that looked like ordinary grocery habits if anyone glanced twice.

I took the stairs back up to the third floor, locked my four heavy steel deadbolts behind me, and collapsed onto my comfortable velvet sofa with a long, contented sigh. Outside, the dark apocalyptic city was full of howling wind, roaming infected, and desperate survivors. But inside Apt 308, my diesel generator was humming softly, my refrigerator was full of gourmet food, my spatial storage contained a military shotgun and three modified pickup trucks, and my neighbors regarded me as their absolute sovereign protector. I reached into my spatial stash, pulled out a cold glass of sparkling apple cider, and raised it toward the ceiling in a silent toast. "Day One of the apocalypse," I smiled, t
