Only a few moments earlier, the scout had gone to check on the situation inside the safe house. His task was simple. He needed to find out whether the two survivors who had taken the Mutagenic Gene Enhancement Serums had finished their transformations.However, the moment he approached the building, a low rumble came from inside and shook the walls.It was not machinery.It was a roar.The scout stopped and tightened his grip on his weapon. None of them truly understood how the Mutagenic Gene Enhancement Serum worked. No one had ever been willing to test it before, and Jonathan and Wesley were the first two people who had dared to take it.Would they still be in their right minds after the transformation? Or would the serum turn them into feral monsters?Another roar came from inside.This one was deeper, and the vibration traveled through the wooden planks of the house. A moment later, the scout heard wood splintering.Crack!The door shook before suddenly bursting outward as if some

After several days of careful preparation, Max finally confirmed that Ark-45 was stable and that everyone who had been injured during the Global Event had recovered. Thankfully, the shelter had survived the seven-day event without suffering any serious casualties. The Survivors were already repairing the damaged structures, reinforcing the barricades, and restoring the defenses that had taken a beating during the endless attacks. For the moment, Max didn’t have much to worry about. Knowing that everyone under his protection was safe brought him a sense of relief. It also gave him the confidence he needed to move forward with the next stage of his plan. Once everything was ready, Max gathered the people he trusted most. Aya, Xander, Gina, Tianna, and Alfie were summoned to Freedom Shelter, and all five arrived prepared to take part in the raid. They had spent the past few days training and making use of the rewards they had gained during the Global Event. Aya, Xander, and Alfi

The group assigned to drive away the unexpected visitors never had a chance to react properly.Almost instantly, five of their people were knocked out.“Where are they?! How many?!”“They’re everywhere!”The attack had happened too quickly for them to understand what was going on. To make matters worse, the decoy emitter was working exactly as Max had intended. The device made it appear as though his force was much larger than it really was, leaving the enemy unable to tell how many attackers were actually surrounding them.Max pushed through the smoke and raised his weapon.Two shots rang out.Bang! Bang!Two more enemies dropped before they could react. The attack looked almost effortless, but the flash grenade had created the opening. The sudden burst of light had left the enemies disoriented, giving Max’s people the advantage they needed.“Push forward! Don’t let them regroup!”The strike force surged ahead.Their sudden assault overwhelmed the enemy before they could organize the

Once the battle was finally over, everyone took a short break. The adrenaline that had kept them moving during the fight was gone, leaving exhaustion to settle over their bodies. Several people simply sat in the mud, catching their breath and trying to recover.Their Spirit Points were also almost completely drained, especially among the Foreign Survivors who had spent so much energy during the battle.Still, they couldn’t afford to rest for too long. After a brief recovery, everyone got back on their feet and began working together to clear the battlefield.It was then that Max found a familiar face.Angelo.The man who had once threatened Freedom Shelter was lying beneath his own motorbike, his body badly injured and pinned beneath the machine. He tried to push himself free, but he no longer had enough strength. His breathing was shallow, and fear filled his eyes as he realized that he was dying.There was no grand final battle between him and Max.No dramatic confrontation.No fina

A few hours before Max and his team reached Ark-28, Jett was already buried in work of his own.After the Surveillance Sweep Event, the Guild had agreed that he would be responsible for learning the Advanced Barrier System Generator blueprint once they managed to complete it. Everyone had therefore handed over whatever fragments they had collected. Ten pieces were required, and fortunately, the Guild had managed to gather more than enough.Once Jett put the ten complete fragments together, the System finally recognized them as a complete blueprint.Since Jett possessed a mechanical Talent and had the experience needed to understand complicated machinery, everyone agreed that he was the best person to learn it. He had both the hands and the mind for the job.Jett held the assembled fragments in his hands as a System prompt appeared before him.[ Do you want to learn the Blueprint? ][ Warning: Learning this Blueprint will consume the item. Once learned, you will permanently gain the ab
