Meanwhile, somewhere in the city of fog.
“Is there any strange development around?”
The figure of a middle-aged woman with a firm face sat on the worn out sofa chair. In front of him, it appeared that four people were standing in somewhat messy clothes, but they were carrying weapons and body armor.
“Report, Mistress! Other than the riots at the end of the year, absolutely no anomalies occurred.”
Hearing the report, the middle-aged woman heaved a sigh of relief. He then said.
“Then you can come back.”
“Good, Mistress!” answer them in unison.
After they all left, the middle-aged woman leaned on the sofa while sighing deeply. If looked carefully, her age could barely close her beauty. Wavy blonde hair, blue eyes, and a stern face.
The woman's appearance .. is quite similar to Jay's.
‘This damned world ..’
The woman complained in her heart. As he closed his eyes, the door of the room suddenly opened.
“Don't be too hard on them, Lara.”
The figure of a middle-aged man, an appearance similar to the more mature and masculine version of Jay with a moustache and a rather thick beard entered the room.
“You shouldn't pamper them too much, Chris.”
They are Lara and Christopher, owners of the Golden Maple Group, a large company that was very well known before apocalypse arrived. Their other identity is .. Jay's biological parents.
“We need to do everything gradually, Honey. Hurry is not good at all.”
“If we are not in a hurry, when can we get out of this cursed place?! We've been stuck here for so long! I'm really fed up, Chris!”
Looking towards the woman he loved the most, a figure who usually seemed resolute and capable of leading people now so depressed, Chris let out a long sigh.
The man sat down next to Lara, then hugged her gently while continuing to pat her on the shoulder.
“Patience, My Love. Calm down, even though it looked careless, the boy easily adapted to the environment. She must be fine.”
“But how long? How long can we reach the level where we can get out of this cursed place without fear of the outside world?”
Lara leaned against Chris' chest with a sad expression. After a long sigh, he immediately complained.
“Bocah k-parat and not filial it ...
Why would he not want to stay and inherit the company? What is so good about being an ordinary office worker?
If only he wanted to stay, I would definitely not be troubled. If only he would have stayed, we would have been able to live more safely and comfortably. If only he wanted to stay, I wouldn't have to worry about him every day.”
“...”
Chris simply listened to his wife's complaint in silence. Of course, he also thought of some things that should not be said.
For example, why would Jay have such a character? Yes, because the stubborn and assertive behavior was inherited from his mother.
Not wanting to make the situation even more messy, Chris just kept quiet and listened.
After a while, Lara finally calmed down. Sitting with a straight body and a stern expression, he then asked.
“People say that there is no movement around our region and the middle circle. However, have the outer circle and inner circle been examined? Is everything really okay?”
“Not checked, but .. are you serious about checking the inner circle?” ask Chris.
The city of fog is divided into 4 places, namely the outer circle, middle circle, inner circle, and center.
The outer circle was the outermost part of the city, the number of monsters there was not so much.
The middle circle had more monsters, but its strength was still not so excessive.
While the center itself is where the giant tree is located.
The headquarters of the five powerful groups, including the Golden Maple were in the middle circle. There was absolutely no group surviving in the inner circle. For the outer circle itself, not many large groups wanted it because resources were limited to their group members.
“Forget.” Lara shook her head. “Although can not check the inner circle, it would be nice to check the outer circle.”
“Good.” Chris nodded. “I will send three small teams to check the outer circle where it is still within our territory.”
“What about the cannibals? Did we track them? Last time they showed up was in winter, right?”
“For cannibals, absolutely no hint.” Chris shook his head.
“The disgusting earth rats ..” Lara gritted her teeth.
In this city, humans are like mice to zombies and mutated beasts. They are not very good at fighting. It could still handle level 1 and level 2 creatures, but levels above it were disastrous for them.
A level 1 mutated beast could be defeated by a small team of 4 to five people. Level 2 beasts could be defeated by four teams of 5 people.
Yeah ... That's also what Ark did in his previous life.
Humans prefer to hide, just come out to find food and take it to their ‘sarang’.
“How about the development of the herb?” ask Lara.
“Chelsea have put in a lot of effort. But still there is a problem. Although three out of ten test subjects managed to break through the normal human limits, but the defects of the next generation potions have not disappeared.” Chris took a long breath.
“Still have a dangerous effect where they can go berserk at any time? Emotions still unstable?” ask Lara.
“Ya.” Chris nodded.
If the members of Sword of Sufferings heard what Lara and Chris said, they would definitely be shocked to not expect that there was another group researching the evolution potion.
Although it has not been fully successful, but such a development is clearly already good compared to groups in other cities that are just busy trying to survive.
Ark itself will not be surprised. Although there are those who make potions, refining the composition takes quite a long time. However, there will definitely be progress because ...
There are still quite a number of geniuses in this world!

Meanwhile, in a building hidden in the middle circle area.
“Sister Irene! Today, Irene is cooking what?”
A little girl of about four years old approached the beautiful woman with red hair with a curious expression on her face. Behind him, a white ‘big cat’ sniffed, following the little girl with a curious expression.
“Master finds edible vegetables and mushrooms. So today we eat jamut soup.”
“Mushroom soup? Whoa! Today we eat warm food, it must be delicious.”
The little girl's eyes immediately sparkled. Since coming to this city, they usually ate fruits. Although it was delicious, the little girl felt rather bored. Because it is rare to eat something warm, warm food is considered their own pleasure for them.
“Kak Irene .. when will Mama return?” ask the little girl.
“Just relax, Miss Eira. Master will definitely be back soon. With the power of Master, there will definitely be no accidents.”
Irene stared at the girl with a friendly smile. Just finished speaking, another voice sounded in the ears of the two of them.
“Did you miss Mama, Eira?”
Irene and Eira turned to the source of the voice. There, there appeared a graceful female figure with snow-white hair. The figure is not only beautiful, but also nicknamed the White Angel because of its power.
The woman .. is Silvia.
