Apocalypse Regression's

Canggung Atmosphere

Two days later.

At the temporary headquarters of the Sword of Sufferings, Ark looked busy. He collected a lot of materials. In addition to the outer part of the ladybug wings of the zombie face, he collected various types of leaves and sap of liquid plants.

In these two days, the Sword of Sufferings members were busy training and adjusting to the surroundings. Not only that, they also carried out clearance operations around their headquarters.

Although it was quite troublesome, they were all getting used to the environment. In addition, there was something that surprised them.

Yes ... There are many types of fruits that can be eaten in this city!

“Hey, Ark? Are we not going to go directly into the deeper area?”

Leaning at the door, Jay saw Ark sitting on a chair while grinding some dried leaves. Make it a fine powder and throw away the bone part of the leaf casually.

“Didn't we check it? Although most are level 2 and some are level 3, we are less advantaged in this kind of place.”

“...” Jay looked at Ark in silence.

“If not get used to it first, there will definitely be many casualties in case of an ambush. In fact, just got here too, many soldiers who get permanent injuries.”

As Ark said. On this trip, nearly thirty soldiers were injured. Although it can be healed, the burn can not be removed.

Indeed, such things do not affect the performance of the body, but still affect the appearance and make them less confident. Finally, it can affect their temperament, even their way of fighting.

In addition, there are also some workers who are less careful. A dozen of them lost limbs. The lightest, losing fingers. At worst, losing one arm or leg.

“Sorry.” Jay's down.

“You are completely innocent. We're on an expedition mission, and this kind of thing can happen. If they wanted to blame, they had to blame their own carelessness. Even if not careless, maybe they fared badly.”

“But-“

“Listen to me, Jay. Believe it or not, the Sword of Sufferings were the luckiest group. Among our colleagues, there are rarely any casualties.

Such injuries need not be regretted at all. In fact, if there were a few dead people on the mission, it was still natural.

As you know. There were some low-level members who were less fortunate and died on missions. Even if we regret the death of those people, they will not return at all.”

“...”

Unlike Jay who is worried, Ark is calmer because he has experience in two lives. When compared to other groups where there will be casualties every day, or at most within a few days ... The Sword of Sufferings was really very good.

Not only rarely suffer casualties, but the situation in the group is more cheerful and harmonious. It doesn't match the name of the group itself.

Whereas in other groups, the atmosphere was heavier because the pressure to survive and strengthen themselves always weighed on their shoulders.

Of course, there are disadvantages and advantages. Because they are always under pressure and living on the brink of death, they have a very strong mentality. On the contrary, the mentality of the people in the Sword of Sufferings was rather flaccid, except for those who had previously indeed lived in a dark world.

Therefore, Ark trained them hard. Not only did he give them potions and tell them to level up, he also gave them tactical training. Not only that, Ark also always had them compare themselves, fight with his comrades.

The young man made sure the atmosphere of competition was always there so that the soldiers could continue forging themselves. Not letting them lapse after gaining strength, because if they don't move forward ...

They will be left behind by creatures that continue to evolve and be forged by nature.

Finished grinding the dried leaves into powder, Ark twisted his chair. Looking towards Jay who was leaning against the wall, the young man said.

“If you want to check deeper area, I will give you permission.”

Hearing that, Jay lifted his face. He looked at his best friend with a surprised expression. Just then, Ark's voice came back.

“I did allow you to go deeper into the area, but did not let you make trouble.”

“You mean?” jay asked with a confused expression.

“I definitely did!” jay answered excitedly.

“I know you're worried about your parents, Jay. But you have to remember! You're gonna be a father. So don't make your child born without a father.” Ark's eyes became colder. “You know what I mean, right?”

Looking right into Ark's eyes, Jay felt as if he was being stared at by a beast. Even so, he felt a warm current in his heart.

“Thank you, Ark. I will not disappoint you!”

Seeing Jay's stern expression, Ark nodded lightly. He then said.

“Go. I haven't given you permission. Talk to Mona first. If he allows it, I won't refuse either.”

“Understanding!”

Ark looked at Jay who was giving normal then left with a flat face. After his best friend had completely left, he turned back his chair. Gazing towards the materials that had gone through the first process, the young man muttered.

“Because everyone is excited, it seems I should also be more serious.”

Folding his sleeves, Ark raised the corner of his lips.

Her night.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

“Evening is ready, Mr.”

Roxanne knocked on the door, not going straight into the room even though the door was open. He looked towards Ark who was busy with his work.

Paying close attention, Roxanne saw dozens of miniature sausage-shaped black objects the size of a thumb. Observing the thing well, the girl really did not understand what the chairman was making.

“This is an advanced version of black gum. More flammable and more durable, but not used as fuel.”

Black gum is the name of an object created by Ark. It was made from the sap of a certain mutated tree. Once heated, it will become a thick and sticky substance in black.

The object is usually applied to a wooden stick that will be burned. Not only is it more flammable, but the fire is also durable and not easily extinguished. Black gum itself is an object that must be carried on an expedition mission to make it easier for them to make fire.

“Enterated version?” roxanne muttered.

Seeing the many black mini sausages, the girl felt confused. Clearly, compared to black gum, it looked even louder. It even looks like a piece of charcoal.

Ark ignored Roxanne's curious gaze. He relaxed the stiff muscles of his body from sitting in the same place for so long. Getting up from his chair, the young man said.

“Come go.”

“Good!” answer Roxanne.

The two of them finally went to the second floor, where people prepared food.

Arriving there, Ark and Roxanne were immediately greeted with a cold atmosphere. No laughter as usual. In fact, almost everyone was silent, not daring to say anything.

Just then, Ark's gaze went straight to the source of the problem.

Looking towards the awkward-looking Jay and Mona, the young man sighed deeply.

‘As expected. It seems that the negotiations did not go smoothly.’
