Apocalypse Regression's
Worst Nightmare's
If asked a question ‘what do you want?’, the answer must vary. However, in this world of very minimal choice, there are some answers spoken from the mouths of people.
‘Life, strength, and peace.’
That is what everyone in this chaotic world wants most. If it is abbreviated as one sentence, what they want is ...
‘Have the power to live peacefully in this chaotic world.’
Yep. Don't want a house, a car, jewelry, or money. What they wanted was a comfortable life like before. A life they had wasted, but now they were sorely missed.
It's just, everything has gone and there's no way they've got it back.
Standing on the roof of a tall building, an angry and hateful expression appeared on Ark's face. It was because of something a few hours earlier.
After taking out Crocodile and his subordinates, Ark planned to return to the group. Only, it was delayed due to the sudden appearance of a wave of ferocious beasts.
Not to mention, what appeared this time was not just mice, zombies, and some other low-level creatures. There were level 3 creatures with a lot of numbers, even some level 4 creatures.
Not one or two, but four level 4 creatures appeared blocking his way!
That's why Ark stopped and instead dragged in a different direction. Spent a lot of time killing them all. And now, the city had completely fallen into chaos.
Ark glanced towards the colony of mutated mole rats and mutated black bats with a cold expression. They were obviously level 1 and level 2 creatures, but their numbers were simply too many. In one look, in the Ark region alone there were over ten thousand mole rats and black bats.
Even if they were weak, it would take a lot of effort to clean them all up. Not to mention, running out of energy in a place like this was akin to asking for death.
Unable to use land and air paths, Ark stared in a certain direction with a complicated expression. The young man muttered in a tone full of regret.
“Please, you guys should survive even without me.”

Meanwhile, at the place where the Golden Maple Group entourage was located.
“Is Ark not back yet?”
Hearing Jay's question, the Sword of Sufferings members looked at him with a cold expression.
“Chairman ... he must be fine right?” angelica asked doubtfully.
“Take it easy. Even if we die, a man harder to kill than a cockroach would have survived.”
Aisha said in a half-joking tone. The woman then turned her gaze to the other Sword of Sufferings members then spoke.
“Our problem now is to find a way to go to the branch headquarters in the outer circle, a place where chaos should not have occurred. I suggest you go alone. But you wouldn't agree Jay.
So, what should we do now, Roxanne?”
“EH?”
Looking at the people who were staring at him while waiting for an answer, Roxanne who was usually calm and silent suddenly felt panicked. Despite being told that she had to lead as long as the Ark wasn't around, the woman was clearly worried when she had to face such a difficult choice.
Roxanne's gaze swept over the hundreds of people from the resting Golden Maple Group.
Is correct. Not thousands, but only hundreds of people as almost all of them were buried on the previous wave of monsters. From nearly two thousand to less than eight hundred people left.
It's a little sad to remember how easily people's lives were lost.
‘If it was Mister, what would he do?’
Not yet finished his thinking, Jay's voice sounded.
“Better stick to the previous plan. Line up together until the branch headquarters in the outer circle of the city.”
Although not a long-time member, Scorpio expresses an opinion based on its analysis.
“Are you going to just ignore the lives of hundreds of people in front of you?” Jay asked with an expression of disbelief.
“I know you're sad, Jay. Stop acting like we are good people. Remember, we have taken hundreds of lives with our own hands.
Not saving, but killing. So what happened this time is no worse than what you did before.”
Aisha is obviously not happy with the attitude of ‘hero’ in Jay. The woman immediately protested and slapped the man with cruel facts.
By the time the two were once again about to argue, Roxanne's voice sounded.
“That's enough! Now is not the time to argue.
As the temporary team leader, I decided to go with Golden Maple Group.”
Hearing that, Jay's expression looked happy while Aisha looked grim. However, Roxanne's remarks didn't just stop there.
“Although together, we will have them move according to our speed. No time can be delayed, we'll walk faster.
If anyone protested, tired, not strong, and so on .. then they should be left.”
Hearing that, Jay was rather saddened to know that at least tens or even over a hundred people would be left on the street and lose their lives. Meanwhile, Aisha whistled with satisfaction. Seems to like Roxanne's good decision but still logical.
“Fifteen minutes! Please tell them to be ready in fifteen minutes because we're leaving soon. There is absolutely no denial and any reason is considered invalid.
Do you guys understand?”
“Ya!” answer them all before they disband.
Looking towards the exhausted and injured looking people, Roxanne bit her lip. Although he felt reluctant, but he still chose such a cruel decision.
The woman just put on a firm expression while thinking.
‘What I'm doing is not wrong, sir? This is the correct answer, right?’

Meanwhile, at the place where Crocodile exhaled his last breath.
“Even after getting the power is still in vain. Indeed, people whose intelligence is below average are not reliable.”
Dressed in a white lab coat that looked striking in this gloomy world, the figure of a beautiful brown-haired girl and had a lavender-like iris said in a regretful tone. His words sounded soft, but his sentence was cruel and did not hide a trace of contempt.
“The world is full of miracles. Even after my plan to manipulate the two groups failed, it turned out that the world showed me its magic.
Although unlike other creatures that can directly experience mutation and evolution, it does not mean humans can not do it.
What the Sword of Sufferings did. What I now find. Everything can lead to the evolution of mankind. Yes .. as long as their minds are open enough.
By the way, which path should I choose? I think this road is right?”
The girl walked towards the broken streets, the direction towards the rows of Golden Maple Group and Sword of Sufferings were located.
Having a sweet smile on her pretty face, the girl said.
“I really can't wait to see Mr. Ark again~”
Walking down the bleak streets, Chelsea who were followed by twenty black-robed people finally disappeared in the distance.
