Lucy was nothing like those jerks at the top.
If she slipped up, she’d be devoured by those people–in and simple.

In this world, only a rare few had the luxury of choice. Most people were just doing whatever they had to in order to survive.
Theresa pulled a nket from the stash released from Lucy carlier and gently covered her body, then turned and grabbed Quentin, who’d just been standing there watching the show.
She made him help pack up all of Lucy’s supplies.
No one stopped her. No one even looked her way.
Everyone else was too busy trying to keep someone alive.
The leader of Ark Camp Three had copsed after injecting the inhibitor. His legs jerked a few times, then he went limp.
Panic broke out as people crowded around him.
Morgan, meanwhile, was inside the room using the internal phone system to contact someone outside. A few momentster, the elevator at the corner of the room began descending from above.
Reinforcements were on their way.
By the time Theresa finished collecting everything, the elevator had arrived.
The first group to go up was the team from Ark Camp Three. They carried their unconscious leader with them.
The elevator could only take so much weight. With all her dogs, Theresa waited for the next trip.
When she finally surfaced with her pack, Ark Camp Three was already gone–flown out by helicopter.
Morgan was in the middle of a conversation with officials from Ark Camp Two.
Their Outer Ring administrator, Inner Ring administrator, and camp leader had alle out to meet him.
They surrounded Morgan, talking nonstop.
After all, he was their guest. Something serious had happened while he was on their turf–an incident involving zombies, and worse, Ark Camp Three’s leader had been injured. They had to apologize, calm him down, and do damage control.
Seeing Morgan tied up with them. Theresa said, ‘I’ll look around a bit.”
Morgan nced her way. ‘Don’t take off your mask. Go ahead”
‘Got it‘

Chapter 395 The Outer Ring
Thirty minutester.
Ark Camp Two’s Outer Ring.
Ark Camp Two was built on a strict hierarchy.
Ordinary people with no abilities were confined to the Outer Ring.
Ability users and security forces lived in the Middle Ring.
The management and elite stayed safe inside the Inner Ring.
In one of the more spacious and tidy mud houses in the Outer Ring, a chorus of female voices echoed from within.
“Rara. I can’t do this anymore.”
“Lura, can we take a break?”
“Lura, maybe just call it for the day…”
“Shut it!” snapped a strong,manding voice. “If you’d rather be some man’s ve–beaten, used, humiliated like dogs by those Inner Ring sc*mbags–go ahead. Walk out that door. Don’te back.”
“But no matter how hard we train, we’ll never be like the ability users…”
“That’s exactly why we need to push harder. The world doesn’t care if we’re weaker–we push or we fall. One day, Steelbloom will be a force no one in Ark Camp Two dares to mess with, not even those ability
users.”
Her voice rang out with unshakable conviction.
It was enough to lift the spirits of the exhausted girls, who clenched their jaws and threw themselves back into training.
That was when someone knocked at the door.
With a green mask on, Theresa walked through the Outer Ring of Ark Camp Two like a deity among
mortals<b>. </b>
No matter which ring the people belonged to, they all treated her with the same stunned reverence- silent, wide–eyed, and fearful.
She asked around casually and quickly got the address of Lucy’s sister.
Ar the door, she knocked
A moment passed before a narrow gap opened.
Pecking <b>out </b>was a girl with tightly wound hair and a thin, wiry frame, wearing loose, oversized clothes.
The moment she saw the green mask, her expression shifted to guarded and grim. “Who are you?”
Theresa studied the girl, who was quiet and cautious, then pulled ou a wallet and checked the photo

inside. “Lura?”
“How do you have my sister’s wallet?” Lura’s eyes widened. She yanked the door fully open.
“Your sister asked me to give this to you,” Theresa said. She tossed the wallet to her.
Lura caught it quickly. Just touching it sent a shiver of dread through her. Her voice trembled. “Where’s my sister?”
“Rara!”
“Lura!”
“Lura…”
Several young girls appeared behind Lura.
None of them looked older than twenty. Some were just kids–eleven, maybe twelve. They were all thin, tanned, and wearing oversized, ragged clothes. It was obvious they were trying to look uglier on purpose.
They gathered behind Lura, staring at Theresa’s green mask with wary eyes.
That mask meant she was one of them–a person of power. An honored guest of Ark Camp Two. Almost divine in their world.
