A Fat Sheep

Though it seemed that Henry was a Stage 3 Junior Awakener and Nakajima Takeshi a Stage 1 Junior Awakener, with just two levels between them, in reality, Henry had dual talents.

This was equivalent to upgrading his genetic evolution path by three levels and his energy evolution path by three levels.

He also had all his talent points maxed out...

The gap in their abilities had long surpassed just two levels!

Thus...

He defeated his opponent in one move!

Ding! Target eliminated!

Congratulations, you have obtained:

[Energy Cores]*255+204 (80% talent bonus), [Knuckle Dusters]*2, [Alloy Knuckle Duster Blueprint]*1, [Akatani Yoko's Underwear]*2, [Storage Ring Fragments]*107, [Alcohol]*15, [Clean Fabric]*25, [Cruel Video]*20, [Love Hotel Room Card]*1!

After the collection, Nakajima Takeshi's body immediately disappeared.

Nakajima Takeshi was originally just a bodyguard responsible for protecting Uesugi.

All the resources of the entire camp were in Uesugi's hands.

Thus, the few items dropped were not surprising to Henry.

Unfortunately, he only had two slots left.

Henry only took the [Energy Cores], [Storage Ring Fragments], and [Alloy Knuckle Duster Blueprint]!

Leaving one last slot open.

Other uncollected items dropped in the form of a [Survivor's Supply Box] at the original location of Nakajima Takeshi's body.

Uesugi and Akatani Yoko were running quickly on the bridge.

Akatani Yoko had come through wearing her professional outfit, a pencil skirt, and high heels.

Uesugi also really liked her in this outfit.

Moreover, with the strict security at the hot spring hotel, there was no need to fear a zombie attack.

So, Akatani Yoko simply wore it as such.

But they hadn't anticipated today's mishap.

Her clothing greatly restricted Akatani Yoko's mobility.

After running only a dozen meters, she was left behind by Uesugi.

"Mr. Uesugi... please... wait for me..."

Akatani Yoko panted breathlessly.

"Yoko, you have to push yourself, you can't always think about relying on others!" Uesugi called back.

However, he had only spoken halfway when he felt a gust of wind.

Following that, Henry appeared like a harbinger of death, emanating a chilling aura of killing intent.

He blocked Uesugi's path.

"You... how did you get here?"

"...Where is Nakajima Takeshi?"

In reality, his questions were pointless.

Henry's presence here meant that Nakajima Takeshi was already dead.

Uesugi was only momentarily flustered, then quickly summoned the composure of a seasoned politician.

He swiftly gathered his emotions, striving to appear relaxed and natural.

He spread his hands, palms towards Henry, signaling he had no hostility.

"Let's talk this over!"

"You attacked our camp merely for supplies!"

"I can give you all the supplies!"

"Including... this woman behind me!"

"You can do whatever you want, as long as you spare me!"

"After all, we have no grievances, and I will remember your kindness!"

"Should you need anything in the future, I will do everything in my power to repay you!"

Uesugi's face was full of sincerity.

At his most earnest, he clasped his hands together, giving off a reliable impression.

Those who become senators have a natural talent for beguiling with words.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to have Frank so loyally execute his orders.

Uesugi was very pleased with his own performance.

With such acting, he could surely score high marks.

What to say next depended on Henry's reaction.

Regardless, Uesugi was very confident that as long as Henry started to talk, he absolutely had the ability to make Henry compromise!

Bang!

Henry, expressionless, swung a punch.

He sent Uesugi flying through the air.

Then, he crashed heavily to the ground.

In his dying moments, Uesugi's eyes were filled with disbelief!

He couldn't understand why this person would attack him so suddenly, especially when he was willing to give up all his resources.

"Cut the crap!"

Henry frowned as he spoke.

Ding! The target is deceased!

Congratulations, you have obtained:

[Energy Cores]*30+24 (80% talent bonus), [Storage Ring Fragments]*773, [Instant Ramen, Pack of 6]*290, [Frozen Shrimp 500g]*100, [Frozen Sea Cucumber 500g]*80, [Frozen Scallop 500g]*120, [Fresh Beef 1KG]*300, [Soy Sauce]*70, [Frozen Beef 1KG]*800, [Frozen Chicken]*300, [Instant Noodles, Pack of 6]*150, [Purified Water 5L]*500, [Unspoiled Eggs 500g]*70...

[Luxury Yacht]*1, [Level 1 Protective Hot Spring Villa]*1, [Zombie Research Notes]*1, [Sealed Unknown Potion]*1, [Well-Preserved Map]*1, [Automatic Guard Tower Blueprint]*1, [All-Tech Blueprint 4]*1...

In an instant, a dazzling array of supplies filled his vision.

There were so many different types that it was hard to see them all clearly.

Uesugi's storage ring was a level 5, capable of holding 96 item slots, two vehicles, and one building.

He had so many valuable items on him.

So many that Henry was almost overwhelmed!

Upgrade the ring!

Ding! Your current storage ring is level 4. To upgrade to a level 5 ring, you need:

Storage Ring Fragments 1157/500, Energy Cores 1000 points!

Upgrade conditions are met!

Would you like to upgrade now?

"Yes!"

Ding! You have used [Storage Ring Fragments]*500, [Energy Cores]*1000!

Congratulations, your [Storage Ring] has been upgraded from level 4 to level 5!

Storage space expanded from 72 to 96 slots!

Building storage unlocked!

Can accommodate buildings with a total indoor area of no more than 500 square meters!

To upgrade from level 5 to level 6, you need: Storage Ring Fragments: 657/800, Energy Cores: 2136/2000!

After upgrading, the number of slots will increase from 96 to 120!

Note: Level 6 Storage Ring allows for storing supplies inside buildings in the building warehouse!

Can store supplies in the building warehouse?

If so... that's like having an extra warehouse, which can save a lot of space!

Just 143 ring fragments short.

Once the Crawlers have finished slaughtering the Japanese camp, surely I'll be able to find plenty of fragments!

Looks like upgrading the storage ring two levels today will be no trouble at all!

Henry gave a slight smile and turned his head towards the direction of the hot spring hotel.

He saw two Crawlers sprinting their way.

One suddenly pounced on Akatani Yoko, savagely biting into her.

The other charged straight at Henry, emitting a chilling cry!
