Bennie’s team didn’t take part in combat directly. However, they excelled at providing behind–the-scenes-
support.
With strong technical support and a full team backed by heavy firepower, Theresa’s group launched a well- planned assault on Westvale. Their coordination was smooth from start to finish.
After successfully securing the University of Westvale stronghold, the Blazing Sun Alliance reverted to their usual tactic of minimizing casualties by luring in zombie hordes to wipe them out.
Three days into the battle. Theresa received new intel from Bennie.
“Ms. Hall, a bunch of camps in Branford and Crestmont got hit by zombie waves over the past few days. Twelve camps are gone. No, make that thirteen now.”
“Okay”
Theresa wasn’t heartless. She had simply heard of camps falling one too many times.
It was survival of the fittest. Those who weren’t strong enough were bound to be eliminated.
All she could do was focus on her own mission–strengthen the camp and the alliance, so they could face this cruel world with more power
“The remaining camps are all asking for help. They say that if we save them, they’ll join us and stay loyal
forever.”
When Theresa heard that, she responded flatly. “If they can make it here, I’ll take them in. If they can’t, they must figure it out on their own. I won’t risk saving them.” Updates are released by.net
She had never been some saint who tried to save the world. Even if she were, she wouldn’t bother with a bunch of useless talkers.
Not even a saint can save those who refuse to save themselves,
She might be able to save them once, but not for a lifetime.
During this period, Theresa had already started relocating populations from alliance–affiliated camps into
the stabilized zones.
All of them had always relied on themselves.
The road had been dangerous–with casualties and entire vehicles being wiped out. One camp had only a third of its people left. Through thick and thin, they had no one to rely on but themselves.
Theresa couldn’t stand people who waited around for their “leader” to solve everything, acting like giving a nod and cooperating was already a sign of being perfect followers.
This was the apocalypse.

They could be weak, come empty–handed, even lean on the strong–but that only mattered if they had the
will to fight.
The ones who made it this far might not have been the strongest, but they had the mindset of survivors.
People with a loser’s mentality were a burden no one could carry.
Then…. are we really not going to help at all? Bennie asked.
“Send them my best wishes! There are 365 days in a year–I’ll be wishing them the best every day. Is that enough for you?”
Bennie was silent.
Theresa ended the call and went back to strategizing with her team about the next phase of the Westvale
operation.
After the call ended, Bennie adjusted the radio frequency. He paused for a moment and then spoke.
Listen up, you idiots. If you want to join us, get here on your own. No one’s coming to save you. That said, our leader. Theresa, sends her best–hope you’ll survive.
At Camp No. 1, complaints were flying.
“They’re seriously out of line! We already said we’d join them–would it kill them to come save us?”
“Come on, they’ve got all that power and multiple big camps under their belt. Helping out a small camp like ours should be nothing for them!”
“They’ve even secured a massive safe zone already. What’s the big deal about rescuing us and letting us stay there?”
“They want us to go on our own? Are they blind? There are so many zombies out there! We’d die before we Beven got
close!”
They clearly could save us, but they just won’t. And they keep calling us idiots! Today, they even sent us blessings? Disgusting! Just a bunch of heartless monsters, I bet they just want to watch us all die. That garbage alliance should be the first to rot in hell!”
At Camp No. 2, the mood was heavy as voices rose in frustration and defiance.
“Told you they won’t help. We should never have raised our hopes.”
“So disappointing. I really dought they were strong enough to lend a hand to us.”
I thought a strong alliance would naturally help out our smaller camps, especially if we agreed to join
them.
Nol We never should’ve pinned our hopes on others in the first place them?

“I don’t think they’re wrong at all. It’s not like they completely rejected us. They said if we could break through and make it to them, they’d take us in. Let’s do it–let’s fight our way out on our own.”
TOR
Almost every camp that got the message split into two sides–one filled with anger, the other started making plans to break out.
It was like what Theresa had said.
