Bennie had been glued to the radio every day, waiting to hear when Theresa would give up, when she would finally crack under pressure and abandon her suicidal plans. But all that waiting only brought him to March 30th–and the news that the Blazing Sun Alliance had completely taken over the High–Tech District.
Theresa had done it.
In the coldest month of the year, she led her people through a full–scale offensive and chewed through the entire High–Tech District. It had taken one month.
Of course, casualties were inevitable. K1 Camp had lost 13 soldiers. Ember Camp had lost 20. Spark Camp had lost four. Blazing Sun Camp, which had only sent three personnel, suffered zero casualties. The worst injury came when Tyger sprained his ankle saving someone. Compared to the outcome, that was nothing short of a miracle.
All 150,000 zombies in the High–Tech District–wiped out.
Over 100 survivors rescued. Fresh chapters posted on (.)net
There were things that would never happen unless someone dared to start. And once someone took the first step, regardless of outcome, miracles could follow.
When Bennie heard Theresa had actually succeeded in capturing an entire district, he was completely shaken. She really pulled it off?! Even if the High – Tech District was the least populated and most open of the five major zones in Ansford … she still did it!
“Ding – The High – Tech District has been successfully reclaimed. As a reward, your territory has been upgraded. You’ve received ten automated farming rigs – capable of cultivating up to 100,000 acres along with 10,000 automated irrigation units, ten instant noodle production lines, and ten dehydrated vegetable processing lines. From now on, all farmland within your territory will yield twice as much. ”
“Phase One is complete. Everyone-” Theresa had just started addressing the group when the reward screen popped up. “Screw it–distribute the supplies! Take a few days off! Kyle, Tyger, you two stay here and inventory the loot. I’m heading back!”
Without another word, she left behind the entire squad, climbed into her armored car, and sped back to
camp.
The sound of the vehicle tearing away echoed in disbelief behind her.
Vrooooom! Vroooooom! Vroom!
The engines roared. Everyone stood there stunned, watching her vanish into the distance–but within seconds, joy over the loot drowned out any confusion.
Supplies!
Theresa shot straight back to her residential zone. It had been a full month since she last returned, and the farming area had already expanded a bit. Thanks to Hugo’s greenhouse system, the crops had survived the winter. With the worst of the cold now behind them, it was time to scale up production.

She laid out the automated farming rigs the system had granted her and began formally planning out her camp’s farmland. She divided the cultivatable areas into ten distinct farms and assigned two residents to cach–fully mechanized, fully automated.
In an instant, productivity exploded.
Her camp only had about 40 people, and before this, they could barely manage the area of a single farm. Now, with half the manpower, they were cultivating ten times the land. She reassigned the surplus labor to the production lines, where they began processing excess food, especially highly–demanded goods like instant noodles and dehydrated vegetables.
Once Theresa gave the order, her people moved immediately. With full mechanization in place, a single person could sit inside a vehicle and till 1,000 acres with ease.
The entire Blazing Sun Camp mobilized. Within two days, they had launched full–scale mechanized production. All ten massive farms were now active, and the processing lines for instant noodles and dehydrated vegetables were up and running. Her camp might’ve been small, but its output was worth more than a hundred others combined.
Meanwhile, at Kl Camp…
“Your camp’s way better than mine,” Theron remarked, walking alongside Lucas as they toured his base.
Ever since Lucas gained full control over Kl Camp, thanks to Theresa’s Evoloid, things had completely transformed. Life for the residents improved, and overall order had tightened. Even the shantytown had undergone a dramatic cleanup, with better hygiene and living conditions.
“I’ve still got a long way to go,” Lucas said grimly. “We haven’t even resumed production.”
So far, not just Lucas–but every camp he knew of–had failed to restore production. It was just too difficult.
“What about Hall then?” Theron asked, referring to Theresa. “What’s her Blazing Sun Camp like these days?”
Lucas hesitated at the question, then turned to him with a look of sincerity. “Would you believe me if I said… I’ve never actually seen her camp?”
Theron stared, completely confused.
Half an hour later, Theron and Lucas arrived at Theresa’s bunker, and the moment Theron saw it, he froze -the thing was built like a fortress.
