“I’m treating you all to dinner, so don’t hold back,” Elias said, leading them to a roadside barbecue stand.
He rattled off an order for six or seven dishes in quick session–slow–cooked pork roast, pulled pork with peppers and onions, fluffy scrambled eggs, crispy fried chicken bites, and buttered mixed vegetables–each name making Barrett and the others widen their eyes in disbelief.
This was the apocalypse.
“Elias, that’s enough,” Barrett blurted, rmed. “That’s going to cost a fortune!”
Even here at the night market, plenty of people were eating, but none were ordering this much food–except Elias. And from the looks of it, this would be expensive.
“Don’t worry. zing Sun Camp is well–off,” Elias said with a smile. “Even in zing Sun Alliance, we’re the richest of them all.”
The group nced at him.
“You’re lucky to have ended up in our leader’s camp. zing Sun Camp has the best pay and benefits in the entire Alliance. Our leader is the richest person here, which makes us the richest camp too. Out of all fifty–eight camps in the Alliance, even if youbined the other fifty–seven, they still wouldn’te close to us.”
The group just stared at him, stunned.
Someone finally asked, “<i>So</i><i>, </i>our camp leader is also…”
“Yes, she’s also the Alliance leader,” Elias replied, his face lighting with pure admiration. “She’s the most remarkable person I’ve ever met.”
The peace and prosperity he had dreamed of from before the apocalypse had been brought back to life by Theresa, who had carved out a pure, safe haven for everyone in a world of chaos and danger.
To him, Theresa was nothing short of a deity.

The others felt a wave of awe. The one who had saved them was no ordinary person. She wasn’t just part of the Alliance—she was its leader. And the most powerful, most resourceful leader of them all.
Fresh, sizzling dishes began arriving, steaming and fragrant.
Heidi and Reece looked at the spread and thought of the meal Theresa had given them earlier that day. She’d said it was a typical dinner for her camp’s residents.
Everything she’d said was true.
“Mr. Collier,” Heidi murmured, “did we just step into paradise?”
“Yes,” Barrett said, his eyes shining. “This is the ce we’ve been searching for.”
“Go ahead, eat,” Elias told them warmly.
They picked up their forks with trembling hands. The first bite of rich, savory food felt like something out of a dream.
Barrett was floored. He had made the right choice–absolutely the right choice.
Heidi and Reece, though they’d already tasted Theresa’s meal once before, still found themselves moved and astonished. They only wished their other ssmates could be here too. If Nixon saw what Theresa could do, he’d bepletely won
over.
They ate like refugees who hadn’t seen a proper meal in ages, devouring the food as if it might vanish any moment.
Theresa handed the Level–4 zombie’s head to Tania.
The virus researchb had been fitted with an extremely secure containment chamber for zombies.
All the materials had been acquired through the system’s exchanges.

Once Tania had the high–level zombie, she became apletely different person -utterly absorbed in her research, no longer clinging to Theresa for hugs and kisses.
That left Theresa with some free time. She returned to her bunker and decided to open some reward packs.
‘You have ten Ability Packs. There’s a 99.99% chance of amon ability, and a 0.01% chance of a rare one.’
“Cash! Cash!”
With a happy bark, Cash came bounding out from among the dogs.
Theresa ruffled its head and began opening the first pack.
Multicolored lights shed through her mind.
<i>‘</i><i>Ding</i><i>! </i>Congrattions! You’ve obtained a rare ability: precognition ability.‘
Theresa froze, stunned. “Cash!”
“Woof, woof!” Cash wagged its tail furiously, certain it had somehow contributed. The other dogs, instantly jealous, crowded around Theresa and barked for attention.
Laughing, she hugged the whole pack and opened the next one.
‘<i>Ding</i><i>! </i>Congrattions! You’ve obtained a rare ability: mental ability.’
“This is incredible!” she eximed, grinning at her precious dogs,
‘<i>Ding</i><i>! </i>Congrattions! You’ve obtained amon ability: strength–type ability.‘
<i>‘</i><i>Ding</i><i>! </i>Congrattions! You’ve obtained amon ability: speed–type ability.’
<i>‘</i>Ding! Congrattions! You’ve obtained amon ability: fire–based ability.”
‘Ding! Congrattions! You’ve obtained amon ability: strength–type ability.’
