I'm the Villainess in the Apocalypse-Chapter 556. Time Skip

What?

The news felt like a strike of lightning in a clear day.

Jake knew very well that the amount of contribution points in his account was not much. After all, he had to share with the others the hunt of those big mutated animals in the group.

In this way, there was no way for him to earn a lot of contribution points at the short period of time.

Now that it was said that those from the Davis Family would be fined...

Jake knew that his account might be bottomed.

And he might even carry debt.

His hand trembled and he quickly checked his account. Upon seeing the pitiful number 3 in this account, Jake almost vomited blood.

He felt that it would have been better for him to never be part of the Davis Family. This punishment was simply...

"Is there no other way?" Jake asked.

The guard looked at Jake indifferently. He had faced several people with Jake’s situation today and now, he couldn’t even feel much pity anymore.

There were too many people who face misfortune in this incident.

But it was also true that the Davis Family caused so much destruction and in order to compensate the base, a lot of contribution points had to be taken back. If the amount from those who passed away were not enough, they could only take from the rest of the members who were still alive.

Thankfully, the Mason Family also paid a lot of contribution points in order to compensate.

In this way, the amount of contribution points needed from these people who were still alive were not so many.

But for many of them...

It was a huge slash to their account.

They didn’t have many contribution points in the first place. In order to live, they had to work hard and suffer greatly.

Now, it was clear that their situation was not very good.

"...Can we still get out to hunt big mutated animals?" Jake asked with trembling voice.

The guard looked at Jake and nodded. "There’s no problem with it. Everyone is allowed to hunt the big mutated animals."

There had never been any restriction for these awakened to hunt those big mutated animals out there.

After all, everyone hated the big mutated animals.

Without these big mutated animals, they would never be living in such misery and fear every single day.

The big mutated animals’ attack to City A Base had made many people hated those big mutated animals greatly. If not because they were not capable enough to hunt those big mutated animals on their own, they would have long step forward to the frontline and killed those big mutated animals ruthlessly.

Because only in this way would they be able to vent the hatred in their heart.

Even if it was not vented completely.

No matter how many enemies they killed, it would never be able to bring back the people who had passed away.

It was their misery.

And many people felt discomfort when they thought about this.

But they were helpless.

The death couldn’t live again.

It was a fact.

"I see." Jake calmed down and then walked out of the prison. Even though he felt hatred and all, but he would never let it consume him. He looked towards City A Base and swore that he would become stronger and stronger so that he would be able to defeat those who dared to treat him this way.

Someday, he would get his revenge.

...

Time passed quietly.

The dispute between the Mason Family and the Davis Family slowly disappeared from the public with the passage of time. There were other types of news that appeared from time to time, diverting their attention from this internal dispute.

The first one was naturally the announcement of the device that could accurately rank them.

In this way, every awakened had to be ranked and this information would be written on their Base ID. Those who didn’t test their strength would be put at rank 1 if they had already reported to be an awakened before.

But at the same time, there would be more and more missions with specific strength ranking starting to appear.

For example, cleaning up some big mutated animals’ nest not far from the base.

In the past, such mission would be given to the military to finish and they would not recruit other teams. After all, there were not many big mutated animals’ nests out there.

But in the past few months, City a Base had expanded once more. The expansion speed was really fast and without any internal problem such as the fight between the Davis Family and the Mason Family, there was no need for them to worry about anything else.

They could focus on City A Base’s improvement and also some related matters.

This made City A Base to improve greatly and expanded their territory to the point that their neighbor, Center Base, was only a few minutes walking distance away.

In order to avoid more flood problems, they had increased the height of the ground, expanding the so called hill to higher ground. Even if it was still lower than the mountain behind them, but it looked much better.

Right now, there were three layers in City A Base with the outer layer continued to expand again and again.

Several outer posts have been made in order to guard the big mutated animals.

And just like what Uncle Darien was worried about, there were too many jobs opening but lack people.

Thankfully, some people from Center Base moved to City A Base when the outpost they built was not far from Center Base.

Center Base was different from City A Base.

Because it was a private base, the funds and everything had to come from the leader and so on. The management was also depended on them and so far, Center Base couldn’t expand much because of the lack of resources.

Now that the two bases were close to each other, they agreed to cooperate together.
