Apocalypse Regression's

Plan After the Disaster

Two days just passed.

Many people wish what happened two days before was just a dream. It's just that, no matter how much they try, in the end they know that it's all a reality they have to face.

In this time, not much has happened.

Ark led his troops calmly towards the headquarters of the Golden Maple Group while searching for new information about the changing surroundings after the tragedy.

Since the cannibal attacks were launched, the area around the border has become more dangerous. Although it was not a problem for the Sword of Sufferings, it would be a huge barrier that was difficult for the Golden Maple Group or Imperial Phoenix to pass through.

On the first day, there were many things that Ark had to do with his subordinates at the border of the Imperial Phoenix region and the Golden Maple Group.

On the second day, the party that Ark led caught up with Chris and his subordinates who were escorted by 30 men from the Sword of Sufferings. At that time, Ark began to officially meet Chris.

Today, the entourage consisting of the combined members of the Sword of Sufferings and Golden Maple Group finally arrived at the headquarters.

Arriving at the location, they were immediately greeted with joy by the people, treated like a hero returning after fighting a demon lord or something.

Seeing such a scene, the people below the Ark could only shake their heads. Feeling confused whether the Golden Maple Group was too stupid or too cheerful.

Clearly, due to the delay in information, they had almost no idea what was happening at the border. This is one of the terrible things in apocalypse, which is the difficulty of communicating remotely. It is also very difficult to get important information.

Really like meat on a cutting board that is ready to be cut at any time. Cannot move freely, vulnerable to cut at any time.

Seeing the soldiers from the Sword of Sufferings made the people in the Golden Maple Group headquarters feel perplexed. They wanted to ask, but no one dared to come closer to speak. Not to mention after they saw the depressed atmosphere among the people.

Chris looked towards Lara who was looking at him with a confused and suspicious expression. Imposing a smile on his face, the middle-aged man said.

“I'll explain everything later.”

Thus, Ark and Sword of Sufferings came to the headquarters of the Golden Maple Group as guests.

***

About five hours later where all the problems were explained, Ark was asked to come to the office.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

“Log.”

Hearing a voice from inside the room, Ark opened the door and went inside. Beside him, Roxanne's figure was always following.

Seeing the figures of Chris and Lara sitting on the sofa, Ark nodded lightly in response.

“Sit.”

Chris immediately invited Ark and Roxanne. They sit on the sofa opposite Chris and Lara.

A while later, the atmosphere fell to the awkward point of being so silent.

Lara continued to stare at Ark without saying anything. Wanted to see the figure that had influenced his son.

Meanwhile, Ark himself was just sitting idly without expression. Completely silent in a place like an ice sculpture. Roxanne who accompanied him did not speak if Ark did not ask.

Chris was a little embarrassed. Although the relationship between the two groups became awkward because of Jay, there was no denying that now the Golden Maple Group owed the help of the Sword of Sufferings.

Meanwhile, Jay who became the source of awkwardness is now in his room to recuperate from consuming too much energy when fighting the cannibals even though his condition is not yet prime.

“Uhuk! Uhuk! Before, let me introduce you all.

Lara, this is the head of the Sword of Sufferings, Ark. Next to him was the secretary and his right hand, Roxanne.

Ark, Roxanne .. This is the vice chairman of Golden Maple Group and my wife, Lara.”

“Happy to meet you.”

Lara said coldly, obviously not seeming ‘ amu’ like what she said.

“En. We also.”

Then, the atmosphere again fell to an awkward point.

Perplexed as to what to say, Chris finally spoke in person.

“Because there is not much we want to talk about personally, how about directly discussing the core of the problem? What's the reason you came to our place, Ark?”

Hearing Chris' question, Ark nodded lightly. Rather than talking without a clear direction, it is better to talk about the subject. The young man began to explain.

“The reason why I came is of course because of Jay's request to escort you, to prevent you from the danger that might occur after the chaos wrought by the cannibals.

Besides, you guys don't consider our services free, do you? After all, too much help that Sword of Sufferings gave you.”

Hearing Ark's blunt remarks, Chris and Lara's expressions changed. Especially Lara. The woman obviously had a bad temper and was difficult to talk to. Coincidentally, Ark's speech also hit his pain point.

“I guessed it, you have other intentions to come here.”

“That's what people who pretend to be good say to take advantage of our kindness.”

Ark immediately replied with a flat expression. No scoffing, no hating, and no anger. Just saying it the way it is.

“You-“

“Enough Lara. Although it is a bit painful, this is the reality.

Sword of Sufferings helped Chelsea develop the drug. They saved my life twice. As I lay on the bed and almost died on the battlefield.

If Ark hadn't come before, I would have died. If Ark hadn't sent Jay to protect me from the enemy's ambush, I'd be dead, too.

They saved my life twice. That's the fact.”

“...”

Hearing her husband's words, Lara could only bite her lips. I can't deny it because it's all reality.

Chris stared at the Ark and opened his mouth.

“You have saved my life and hundreds of others. You are the benefactor of Golden Maple Group. So just tell me, what do you want?

As long as we can, we will definitely give it to you.”

Hearing Chris being so straightforward, Ark raised the corner of his lips. The young man then replied.

“Actually there are many things I want from Golden Maple Group. Only, now the situation became chaotic due to the appearance of the powerful cannibals. Therefore, I got rid of other thoughts for wanting to focus on this matter.”

“Then save that request for later.”

“That's what you said.” Ark raised the corner of his lips.

Seeing Ark so cunning, Chris and Lara could only look at each other in silence. After a while, Jay's father asked.

“It looks like those creatures are by no means weaker than the zombies right?”

“Indeed. Not only are they stronger, but they are also smarter. Even if they controlled the animal side, they could still think. Different from zombies in general.”

Hearing Ark's explanation that spoke quite a detail, Chris and Lara guessed that the young man in front of them had already met and dealt with such a creature.

“Do you have a solution to this Ark problem? If anything, you should talk about it because it is not only about the separation of two groups, but almost all residents of the city.”

“You're right, Mr. Chris. It's not just our problem, so ..”

Ark raised the corner of his lips.

“We need people to talk to.”
