2026-10-25 17:04:39Suddenly, Caleb Mercer's eyes lit up with excitement. As a veteran fisherman, seeing the large fish swimming in the river made his hands itch for a fishing rod. If he could catch a few of them and bring them back, the girls would absolutely shower him with praise. The mere thought of it made his lips curl into a wide grin that was harder to suppress than the recoil of an AK-47 assault rifle. He calculated the time he had left. With roughly three hours remaining before the train departed, he h

The last time she had held herself back, it was because the gap between them had seemed too wide to cross, especially with Caleb Mercer being her student.But now that the world had already ended, she found herself wondering what morals or restraint were even supposed to mean anymore. She was single, after all, and even if she hadn't been, she felt as though she would have been ready to throw propriety out the window.On this train, there were wolves everywhere and only a sliver of meat to fight over. Was she really going to push what was already at her lips back out onto the table? How long would it take for her system reward to finally land in her account?Earlier, she had planned to wait for a quiet night and quietly claim him for herself, collecting that reward in secret. But nothing went the way she wanted. Jenna Cole, Stella Lane, and even her own sister had all been nursing the exact same idea. They had nearly gathered enough people to sit down for a round of m

Slaughtering an entire street's worth of zombies: the method was simple, actually. I stumbled onto it by accident.Along the sides of the tracks the train travels, wooden crates sometimes spawn. Crack one open and you can get all sorts of things out of it. Blueprints included.If you spot a chest, you can stop the train and get off to grab it, but be careful. Zombies or other dangerous creatures are usually lurking nearby.As far as I know, there are three kinds of chests. The lowest tier is the wooden chest, then the black iron chest, and above that the bronze chest. Whether there's anything higher than that, I honestly don't know. The best we've ever come across ourselves is a bronze chest.Oh, and here's a secret for you.If the train stops somewhere without a platform for more than an hour, it draws out a certain kind of monster. Tall, taller than you'd believe, with a pair of claws sharp enough to gut a man in one swipe.I only found out because it

Vivian Vale: Of course. About three days ago I found two blueprints in a mine shaft. Both were for a refined iron forge, a machine that produces refined iron. I've already used one myself, so I'll trade you the other.The two of them settled the terms quickly, and moments later the blueprint changed hands. In return, Caleb Mercer sent over a bottle of healing serum.He turned the blueprint over in his hands, studying it carefully.Refined Iron Forge: requires 100 zombie cores, 1,000 common stone, 1,000 common iron, and 500 pounds of common soil.Caleb propped his chin on one hand, thinking it over. Vivian had already built one of these forges herself, which meant she already understood just how valuable zombie cores really were.That wouldn't do. Not yet, anyway. If word got out too soon, his whole money making scheme would take a serious hit.So before ending the conversation, he added one more message. "I'd like you to keep the secret of the zombie co

"Keira, you... you're being even bolder than me tonight?"Keira's lashes fluttered, her eyes half lidded with a teasing glint as she leaned in close to Caleb Mercer's ear, her breath warm against his skin. "I heard men like it when a girl plays hard to get," she murmured, voice dripping with mischief. "But I'd rather take the lead myself. Do you like that?""Of course I do." The corner of Caleb's mouth curled upward. He tipped Keira's delicate chin up with two fingers, his tone leaving no room for argument. "Though I should warn you, I'm not the type to sit back and let someone else run the show. Especially not in this."Before Keira could respond, he flipped her over in one swift motion, catching her completely off guard and drawing a startled cry from her.Some time later, though neither of them could say exactly how much time had passed, Caleb finally stepped out of Keira's room."If you're still that clumsy, maybe you should spend more time practicing,"

Caleb Mercer knocked three times in quick succession, rapping his knuckles against Jenna Cole's door as he waited for her to answer.Inside, Jenna had been staring at that door for what felt like an eternity, ears straining for exactly this sound. When it finally came, a slow, satisfied smile spread across her face, the smile of someone whose scheme had just worked perfectly.Ivy Moore's words drifted back through her mind, the advice of a true scheming adviser: make him remember you by making him come to you. Only then would she hold the upper hand.Tonight's little performance had been bait all along, and judging by that knock, the fish had taken it.A soft, amused laugh escaped Jenna as the thought curved her eyes into twin crescents. She drew a slow breath, composed herself, and carefully eased the door open, only to find Caleb standing outside with an expression as dark and ominous as a storm cloud.His eyes swept over her once, searching for the sexy o

Keira Quinn noticed that Caleb Mercer's gaze had stayed locked on her figure the entire time, and instead of taking offense, she squared her shoulders and pushed her chest out a little more, making the view even harder to ignore.Caleb's eyes went wide on the spot.He swallowed hard, and for a moment he genuinely could not think of a single thing to say.Seeing him flustered like that, Keira let out a soft laugh. "Caleb, I've thought it through.""Thought what through?""My planet is gone. Every last human who lived on it is dead too. I'm the only one left.""Planet M-78 shouldn't just end like that. I couldn't save it, so the best I can do is create more people from M-78, as many as I'm able.""So you understand what I'm telling you. Since I'm the only one left, I have to carry the duty of the next generation too. I can't let the people of M-78 die out completely.""That's why I want you to understand my thinking. Caleb, I'm asking you to hel
