Inside a nearby high–rise, a scavenger peered out at the world beyond through a pair of binoculars. 

“How’s it looking? Are we surrounded by zombies?” a man asked, his voi 

Everyone turned to the guy with the binoculars. As they spoke, their mou still wedged between their teeth.

In the corner, two human skeletons lay exposed, with bite marks left by humans still visible on the bones. 

The man lowered the binoculars, looking puzzled. “That’s weird. The zombies are gone.” 

“What? There isn’t a single zombie left!” someone said. 

Just moments ago, they’d been swarmed by zombies, the building’s doors nearly caving in. But now, it was like something had scared them all off; there wasn’t a single zombie in sight. 

“Ramon, check out that five–star hotel! Looks like there are people inside, soldiers!” someone said. 

Through the window, they caught sight of soldiers moving around in the hotel across the street. 

Ramon grabbed the binoculars and looked, his face lighting up with excitement. “That’s right. It’s the military! We’re saved!” 

The group started cheering and hugging each other, some even breaking down in tears of relief. 

“Wait a second.” Ramon’s tone shifted. “That little bastard who ran off is actually with them. Talk about luck.” 

“Whoa, the babe holding him is smoking hot,” Ramon said, licking his lips. 

He might not have any powers, but he was big and burly, a real badass among the scavengers. He’d fooled around with plenty of women, but he’d never laid eyes on anyone this stunning. 

He’d never seen anyone this gorgeous 

before. 

“Ramon, that babe’s probably just another refugee the military picked up. Once we get to the base, we’ll make sure you get your hands on her,” one of the guys said with a sleazy grin. 

“Yeah, and that little punk who dared to mess with us? He’s dead meat,” another sneered. 

The group burst out laughing. 

They racked their brains for ways to get the soldiers in the hotel to notice them, but nothing worked. In the end, they decided to risk it all. 

“Ramon, looks like there aren’t any zombies out there anymore. Why don’t we head out and take a look?” one of the guys suggested. 

“Yeah, it’s the only shot we’ve got,” Ramon agreed.

A dozen people peeked out from the building, and sure enough, not a single zombie was left, just a mess everywhere. 

“Let’s go!” They grabbed their backpacks and bolted, running as fast as they could. 

Chloe and her group finally made it up to the top floor, which turned 

The place was loaded with breakfast foods. 

uffet restaurant. 

It was like a breakfast paradise, with every kind of morning meal you could think of piled high everywhere. 

Too bad it was all frozen solid, completely inedible. 

Still, the soldiers‘ eyes lit up with excitement. With all this food, if they could trade it for rations back at the base, they’d have enough to eat for 

years. 

They glanced at their backpacks, loaded down with bullets and grenades, then shot hopeful looks at Chloe. 

Chloe understood instantly. 

“I’ll help you collect all the supplies you find along the way, and once we’re back at the base, I’ll make sure you get everything back,” she said. 

Her spiritual space was stocked with enough supplies to keep the whole squad going for generations. She didn’t even care about this small stash. 

“Thank you, Captain Yates,” William said, bowing deeply to her. 

Sure, they were all soldiers, and discipline was everything, but at the end of the day, they were just people with parents, families, wives, and kids to take care of. 

Their pay barely covered their own meals, and if they wanted to support their families, they had to tighten their belts and make every penny count. 

Everyone knew soldiers got next to nothing. Most of the supplies went to the refugees, and sometimes what was left wasn’t even enough for them to eat. 

The mission this time was mainly about collecting medicine, so if they manag would be a total bonus.

Of course, everything had to be handed in, but for those who’d made a name for themselves, they’d always manage to score a little extra. 

Chloe swept all the food into her spiritual space, then brought out some muffins to pass around to everyone. 

But this time, William cut in and stopped her. 

“Captain Yates, thanks a ton for the supplies, but there are just too many of us. We’d better stick to the rations. and biscuits we brought ourselves,” William insisted. 

So she handed out twenty ration bars and two big muffins to each person.

“The ration bars don’t take up much space, so you can keep them on you in case we get separated and you run out of food,” Chloe said. 

“And the bread is my way of thanking you. After all, you’ve handed over all the cores you collected on this trip to me, she added. 

William hesitated. He knew this was against protocol. 

“But this was already agreed upon between you and Graham before we left,” he said. 

Chloe waved him off. “That’s settled. You’ll get two muffins with every meal. If you’re with me, there’s no way I’m letting you go hungry” 

“But there are over five hundred of us,” William said, his voice faltering. 

That was a crazy number. No wonder William was so hesitant to accept the food. He just couldn’t help feeling uneasy about it, 

Emily was seriously fed up with all their whining. 

She rolled her eyes and said, “Isn’t all that fussing exhausting? If you’re so worried, just work a little harder on the road and dig up more cores for us.” 

With Emily putting it like that, William couldn’t refuse anymore. 

He glanced back at his men. They were all pretending to mind their own business, but their stomachs were growling, and some were even sneaking glances at the bread, trying not to drool. 

“Alright, thanks, Captain Yates,” William finally said. 

As soon as he said that, William could hear his men letting out quiet cheers. 

Everyone wanted muffins. 

No joke, tagging along with Chloe on this mission was the best they’d had since the apocalypse hit. 

Some of them were secretly wishing this mission could last a bit longer, jus. good food.

At the same time, each soldier promised themselves. Next time they ran into zombies, they’d go all out hunting for cores for Captain Yates. 

“By the way, what about those soldiers who were killed by the Frostbeast right in front of me?” Chloe asked, her voice full of concern. 

“Don’t worry. They died serving the base. The base won’t let their families go without,” William said, sounding resolute. 

Chloe finally felt at ease. “Good, that’s what I wanted to hear. Once we’re back at the base, make a list for me. I’ll personally make sure their families get some extra supplies.”

Hearing that, the soldiers‘ eyes welled up as they looked at Chloe with heartfelt gratitude. 

Every single one of them was secretly wishing they could join her team. 

“Alright, Squad One will take the first half of the night watch, and Squ Tomorrow, we move out,” William announced.

ill cover the second half. 

Each squad had twenty people, and none of them had any special abilities. 

Everyone wore a whistle around their neck. If there was any sign of danger, they’d blow it right away. They were only on lookout duty, not in combat. 

Chloe checked the time. It was only four in the afternoon, but outside, it was already pitch black. 

After such a long day of fighting, everyone was exhausted. They switched on their solar–powered flashligh did one last sweep of the area, and then finally headed into the rooms. 

The hotel rooms all needed key cards to get in, but that was no problem for them. They just swung an axe and split the doors open, quick and easy.
