Apocalypse Land Rebirth Chapter 256-260

The fantasy world settings are not mine but everything other than that is my own creation.
All the character’s in the story that have any Adult interaction are 18 years or older.
All the forced situations that appear are all just an act by the protagonist to fool the enemies and gain benefits.
Chapter 256: the expected benefits of 7-star ark
It would take at least 6 months of time to travel on the fastest boat that travels at half the speed of light.
Even though they looked like a normal old sail boats the winds in the waters here can pull the boat at that high speed.
So boat is made of very sturdy materials with both metal and wood along with the sails that are made of special fabric.
Only this way can this boat catch the wind without breaking to travel at that high speed.
……………
Vicky already knows about this boat and many other safety features of these boats.
So he did not have any problem riding one with many powerhouses on the side of Aivana.
This side of the apocalypse land is filled with deserts, rocks and minerals.
So, most of the powerhouses here are related to Dwarven clans of the apocalypse land.
Dwarves are very good with crafting.
These boats are crafted by them.
Usually they craft these boats to withstand the strong impacts from 4-star beasts most of the time.
But the beasts deep under the waters in this area reached the 5-star and in rare cases 6-star level monsters.
So the ships carrying only 4-star or 5-star level powerhouses would have more problems.
The group that came with Aivana only has one 5-star level powerhouse.
But they are from a 6-star city and they have connections.
So naturally when making this dangerous journey they would try to make the safety approach instead of the rash approach.
Well people in the apocalypse land are not rash people most of the time unless they are some unreliable lucky idiots. (Protagonists)
……………..
The time passed by slowly while Aivana made jerry visits Vicky almost every day.
The main purpose is to eat Vicky’s cooking.
Jerry was both happy and sad.
His relation with Aivana grew bigger but he was bothering Vicky too much too.
Vicky on the other hand did not feel that it is a bother.
As long as their ark reaches 7-star artifact level then it can let them stand in the safest place even if they are in the middle region of the apocalypse land.
Also after the ark reaches 7-artefact level one person travelling is enough for them all to travel along.
That is one person can move the ark from being stagnant in a single place.
This also gives them a chance to have children in the future and their safety is guaranteed.
But upgrading the ark would have problems like they are facing right now.
They would have to stay outside without any protection.
Considering this they have decided that they would have children after their ark upgrades to 10-star level and they have stable secure life.
Also after the ark upgrades to 7-star level it can be brought out as a ship with the previous tower.
The power of the ship is comparable to 7-star ship and no monster under 7-star level can cause any damage to it.
Also no monster below 8-star level can catch up with the ark ship.
So travelling after upgrading the ark is the best possible outcome for Vicky and the girls.
………………..
Time passed by slowly for another 20 days and most of the things related to the ark space have been improved.
It is around 26 days since the upgrade started.
At this moment many people have already realized that the teleportation gate is not working.
The problem is not with the teleportation gate but the safe channel of time and space could not be established.
The people from the middle region panicked a little because they could not return properly.
Most of them did not immediately set off by boat instead they looked at the situation carefully.
They understood that it has something to do with the zombie tied.
They are not in a hurry to leave.
Even if they set sail by boat they would take at least 6 months of times to reach the middle region.
So they decide to take chance and wait for another month to see the situation with the zombies.
If the zombies are controlled and the time and space channel stabilized they can directly connect the teleportation gate to travel to the middle region.
Even through teleportation it would take them around 6 hours of time.
During these 6 days the teleportation time and space channel should be stable.
If not then they might face very sever and dangerous consequences.
Some of them might be able to fall in the ocean between them.
But this is the lightest of the dangerous consequences.
They can fell into other spaces reaching some unknown in habitable land.
Or
They might get torn into pieces by the fissures in the time and space.
They might fell into time loop and lose their life because of this.
They might get into a place of sealed places where something beyond apocalypse land was present.
………………
Just like that there are many dangerous consequences.
So they calmed down.
But not everyone is calm and there are some early birds that wanted to take action.
They believe that delaying will only cause them to face more severe consequences.
So they immediately set off by boat.
The boat can contact the shore of the 3-star city for the distance of few hundred light years.
That cannot be measured like this instead the ship can contact the 3-star city after setting off the city for around 8 days of distance.
After that they could not be contacted and anything that happens to the ship remains unknown.
But the ship that sent off 8 days ago has sent messages continuously back for 8 days.
The messages they sent is that their ship was harassed by Zombified Sea creatures and from time to time there are some 4-star monsters that came to attack them.
The ship can still withstand this but they did not expect that on the eighth day they would face 2 5-star sea monsters attacking them at the same time.
Chapter 257: the relentless zombie attack
The messages they sent is that their ship was harassed by Zombified Sea creatures and from time to time there are some 4-star monsters that came to attack them.
The ship can still withstand this but they did not expect that on the eighth day they would face 2 5-star sea monsters attacking them at the same time.
After that the ship lost contact.
No one knows what happened to the ship.
But there is a bad premonition in the hearts of many people.
After knowing this many early birds don’t want to enter into the waters any more.
Even the ships that entered before returned.
One of the ships that are closest to the ship that lost contact got the final message that the port did not get the image.
This message was delayed and passed on through the other ship after reaching back to the port.
The reason for delay is the strange nature of living being.
If they were unable to make it back to the port safely they don’t want anyone to know about this information and more people would die in the process.
That is if they die then they are not willing to let others live.
Fortunately they came back to the port alive and the news appeared in the port.
“The first ship that set off from the port has encountered a 5-star Megalodon like beast.
It was swallowed whole without even getting a chance to send the message back or ask for help to the port.”
They did ask their nearest ship for support.
But the nearest ship actually turned around back to the port as soon as they received the message.
Just like this everything was cracked down and all the people that wanted to leave have stopped on the spot.
Vicky is not in haste as they still have to spend another 10 days of time before the ark upgrade is complete.
So they are not in a hurry.
Instead Vicky started to make food for them again and fill up their consumed food reserves.
The meat reserves were carefully made again.
They could not get the meat of the beasts back on earth.
The mutated beasts here have a specific problem with taste.
Only few parts of the meat have better taste and the remaining is all bitter.
Because of this Vicky has to buy a lot and carefully separate the useful parts.
All the useless parts are used to exchange back with his butchering skill it was well received.
So there is no loss in buying and selling meat.
But he would have to spend his time in this process.
Also the food that Vicky cooked was mostly for long time preparation work foods.
He wanted to make things in bulk.
So he would make the preparatory process first and store it in ark.
The warehouse is good for putting and taking the things.
So he used his time wisely.
Being with Vicky for so long the women also learnt to cook.
So under his guidance they helped Vicky cook the food and pack the things into boxes.
Everything was packed in carefully for one portion of lunch for them and was stored in the ark warehouse.
Water is plenty and they don’t want to get water from here anyway.
They wait till they came across a place with abundant water resource to get water.
Or replenish their water resource.
During their preparations their guests Aivana and Jerry would appear from time to time.
So they got the food and also brought over the message about the latest news in the 3-star city.
The information is valuable for Vicky and he appreciated about this news.
The food supplies that Aivana and Jerry consumed are not much greater than what they had on hand.
So Vicky did not bother about these little materials.
………………
Another 10 days passed quickly with the unease and tensions in the city grew bigger and bigger.
There are so many zombies that it felt like an endless stream.
There are all kinds of zombies in many races from, humans, elves, dwarves and even beasts.
All of them started to attack the city without a care about anything.
They will not feel any pain no matter what they do and all the lower level zombies are completely brain dead.
Right then the 5-star lion beast that Vicky and the girls buried also took action.
It immediately became a 5-star zombie lion.
It started to attack the city without a care.
Also the last contact from the other cities no longer gave any response.
This means that all the other cities nearby have already fallen.
The people in the 3-star city were not in a good mood.
The 5-star lion gained its intelligence even though it was a zombie beast.
With its intelligence it ordered the other zombies to control the forest area.
But other 5-star beasts appeared and blocked its path.
Similarly it controlled the infected fish type beasts to infect more marine creatures.
But it was also stopped because of the strong marine creatures that directly destroyed the infected beasts to come to their layer.
But they also woke up from their slumber and cause the time and space channel to break with their strong energy.
So the 5-star lion diverted its target towards the 3-star city.
At first the people in the city can still bear with it for a while with many 4-star level powerhouses.
But as time passed on their recovery of magic power could not keep up with the attack of the zombies.
Even if they are low level zombies they are relentless and unless they got hit in the head they would not die.
Even if they are blasted they can still move as long as their head it intact.
Also they can upgrade to use magical energy.
When survivors use magical energy they could not use 100 percent of this.
If they used more than 60 percent they would feel dizzy.
Chapter 258: the broken balance between the people
When survivors use magical energy they could not use 100 percent of this.
If they used more than 60 percent they would feel dizzy.
The will be unable to fight properly.
But the zombies can use 100 percent of their energy both physically and in magical way too.
Naturally it is a big mismatch.
With that in the past month the situation of the 3-star city continued to deteriorate.
There is no way to comeback at all.
So the city council has no choice but to ask for help from the guests that arrived from the powerful clans from the middle region.
But can these people from the powerful clans work for free.
They would not do such a thing and the people from the city did not have many better things to offer.
Also the people from the middle region did not take the things here seriously.
They are still in the thoughts of leaving here as soon as the teleportation gate way connects the time and space channel with some stability.
They are waiting for this to happen and leave this mess behind.
They have their trump cards that can let them fight against these zombies.
But they are unwilling to use their trump cards here.
Also they still have to deliver back the costly materials they bought in the auction here.
Naturally they are unwilling.
With that the two sides are in stalemate while the zombies and the city are in unbalanced stalemate.
Things deteriorate every day.
The other 2-star cities around the forest also sent distress signals to the 3-star city for help.
But the 3-star city could not help itself how they can help others in their current situation.
……………
Another month passed and the situation in the 3-star city is not good.
The food and water reserves have severely depleted.
The city was under complete lock down.
Every person present that is not in combat state should have to pay food and water along with spars as contribution for the people that are fighting.
This is the new law that was made by the council to cover the situation.
If they did not provide the set amount of materials then they have to come out and fight at the frontlines outside the city walls.
Vicky used the cheap useless materials he hoarded before to use here.
Even the water he provided is not good.
Also he sent the 6 women back into the ark space and only provided for one person.
Those guards checked the entire house and did not find any other person.
So things are arranged like this.
Naturally they would not ask form the guests from the middle region of the apocalypse land.
But they refused to help them so they can only do this.
If they did not accept these conditions then they would hole up in their own strong hold within the city instead of protecting the whole city.
Well they could not ask from the big powerhouses and make threats.
But it is not like they have a choice in this situation.
They could not move these big shots out of the buildings they are living in.
Also they buildings they live in are at the city center.
So even if the zombies enter into the city they have to go through then entire city before they reach this city center.
This was done specifically to show off their wealth and support to these big powerhouse from the powerful clans of the central region.
But now it turned against them and they did not have any support at all.
…………….
The desperate situation continued for another month
During this time some of the people went into the sea to leave from here.
They felt that the situation of this 3-star city is not good.
If the city is breached they will not be able to use the teleportation gate.
In this kind of situation they have to brave the sea and leave through the sea way.
But it is dangerous and they all have to form into a group of powerful men to leave from this place.
But the council of the city would not let them leave so easily.
If the powerhouses leave they would really be in the dangerous place.
They will not have any place to take a step back.
So the big powerhouse and clans of the council has made the decision to abandon the city and go to the middle region.
……………
Right around that time Jerry came along to speak with Vicky.
He wanted to know what the plan of Vicky is.
Also Aivana told him that they are planning to take the risk and go to the middle region using a boat with few other big families.
If Vicky and his women also wanted to go this way then they will help them get along into the group.
Vicky on the other hand felt the good will of the person behind Aivana.
It is definitely not her thoughts but the person behind her.
Also it is not that the 5-star powerhouse behind Aivana wanted to help Vicky and his women.
Instead he felt that Vicky has a trump card from the higher power and wanted to have a safety escape route even if the situation is not good.
So they used the good will to come to them.
Vicky smiled and accepted their good will.
Just like they thought Vicky really had the back door that is the ark space.
But he would not use that easily.
If it was exposed then there will be many problems.
But going with the big clans is also a good thing with fewer amounts of problems.
Any way Jerry wanted to follow Aivana and he would not give up the things half way through.
So naturally Vicky would help his friend to pursue the woman his friend liked.
Vicky’s women also made this decision to follow along with the plan of Jerry to leave along with Aivana.
Chapter 259: coming to a deal with Gilol
So naturally Vicky would help his friend to pursue the woman his friend liked.
Vicky’s women also made this decision to follow along with the plan of Jerry to leave along with Aivana.
They did not fear anything and they are sure that they would survive the journey to the middle region of the apocalypse land.
With that they made the arrangements with the person behind Aivana.
The 5-star powerhouse behind Aivana is called Gilol.
He is an elder of Aivana and possibly a grandfather on her mother’s side in relation.
She is the most talented person in the younger generation of her mother’s family.
So she was favored the most in many situations.
Vicky and his women arrived at the place where they are staying.
It is the first time for Vicky to meet Gilol.
So Vicky brought over a small gift for Gilol.
The gift is few grams of broken silver and few grams of bloody silver.
They can be considered as priceless treasures in a 3-star city.
But to a person from the 5-star city they are very rare items.
They can still be obtained if they spent money but they are rare and hard to come by.
If it is a powerhouse from a 10-star city, they would simply look down on these two things.
Vicky is neither humble nor over bearing when he presented these materials.
This present shows that Vicky is not from a poor status.
Also he did not have much value for these small things.
On the other hand his background would be confirmed as strong and mysterious.
This is the effect Vicky wanted to have.
The people around Gilol sill had doubts in the background of Vicky before.
But now that doubt is gone with the present he just gave to Gilol.
If Vicky can present such rare materials then his background is definitely stronger than them.
So they would not look down on Vicky and his women.
Also the gifted materials are enough for them to take Vicky and his women with them without any complaints.
After giving the gift Vicky sat before Gilol and spoke naturally without any pressure or fear.
His actions, confidence and bearings looked like that of a young master from a powerful clan of force.
“It is nice to meet you mister Gilol.
I heard that you are a very good in making high grade artifacts.”
Gilol smiled and responded.
“I am just making them putting my heart into it.
It is not worth mentioning.
Previously Aivana brought over the food you cooked.
It was really an eyes opener that something can be made so deliciously with such few ingredients.
…………”
They spoke for a while which is a normal flattery.
Aivana on the side got board but Jerry was attentive.
He knows that Vicky is not from super big clan or anything.
Even the identities of Vicky were made by him.
But he still has doubts that Vicky might be from a big clan that lost its foundation.
He did not dare to say anything and he did not even speak to assist Vicky in this matter.
While speaking about the things Vicky came to the point,
“Mister Gilol, Aivana said that you are leaving this 3-star city by boat in a few days.
Is that true?”
Gilol nodded and said.
“Yes we are leaving by forming an alliance with the people from the other 5-star and 6-star city clans in the middle region.
Also the powers of the council of this 3-star city are also planning to abandon the city this time.
I would like to invite you and your people to come along.
More people there are more security there would be.”
Vicky knows that it is simply telling nonsense.
But Vicky accepted it with a nod and said.
“I know that this 3-star city would fall in a few days.
I also plan on leaving.
Going with you would be good since we are already acquaintances.
But I have a request.
Don’t tell anyone about my origin.
Just introduce me as a cook that can work for you.
You don’t have to worry about anything.
Also I don’t want anyone to know that the people following me are women.
If things get annoying, things might get out of hand.
When the lives of the people are involved, in desperation people can take violent decisions.
I don’t want any collateral damages on my side.”
If things really go out of hand, then Vicky don’t mind abandoning Jerry for his women and leave the ship decisively.
With the ark reaching 7-star artifact level, they did not fear anything.
But don’t want to reveal anything to these people and even to the closest person like Jerry, Vicky revealed nothing.
After their discussion they have decided to leave in around 2 days.
Vicky and the girls left from here back to their villa.
Well it is not that distance away from the central location.
Just a 20 minute walk.
As long as there is a signal they can move away from here decisively.
Vicky’s women were all there observing the situation carefully when they are in front of Gilol.
Vicky’s way of dealing with the things is really careful and precise.
He did not leave any gaps and told them clearly what he wanted to do.
In the next 2 days Vicky and his girls did not give out any supplies to the authorities of the city.
So they naturally broke into the villa to check.
But they did not find anyone in the villa.
Jerry on the other hand went to stay with the Aivana and discuss about his technology.
Jerry has a signal receiver of Vicky and Vicky can receive his call even though he is in space.
This is the benefits of the upgrading the ark space to this level.
Other than receiving signals, Vicky can also see and hear the things that are happening outside the ark space at where they are staying.
Chapter 260: choice if there is an accident
This is the benefits of the upgrading the ark space to this level.
Other than receiving signals, Vicky can also see and hear the things that are happening outside the ark space at where they are staying.
Well their villa was thoroughly searched and they found nothing.
The group of people from the city council left.
Vicky came out for a moment and then went inside.
For the next 2 days he was discussing the things with his women.
Well they are all on bed and they would talk while they play the bunny game.
Everyone has their own turn and they would play their own fetish.
Vicky would accommodate everything while he has his own thoughts.
The discussion is about the journey and the accidents that they might face during the journey.
There is no such thing as 100 percent possibility.
There are always errors.
Everyone say that the probability of head or tails when the coin is flipped is equal and it is 50 percent.
But they are fundamentally ignoring the other chances that the coin might be a fake that is the coin might have two heads or two tails.
Or there is a chance that a crow flew by and snatched the coin when it was in the air.
These conditions are ignored because the possibility of them happening is very less.
But the possibility of accidents is never ‘ZERO’.
So Vicky is discussing with his girls on what to do if the boat they sail has accident.
Naturally they would take out the boat of the ark space and escape.
After ark upgraded to 7-star artifact the previous tower has turned into a big ship like structure.
It can also be on land and travel like a vehicle.
It is not big but inside would be spacious because of space magic.
The problem here is not escaping but who should they save.
That is should they save Jerry, Aivana and her elder Gilol.
Well there is no proof that they would leak the information about Vicky and his girls.
So saving them is problematic.
But if they did not leak the information then saving them might give Vicky and his girls some stable foot hold in the apocalypse land middle region.
So they have to make their choice about saving them or not.
They would save Jerry because Jerry was very loyal.
As for Aivana, she should be saved because of Jerry and she is a good person.
The problem comes with other people.
If they only saved two people and a specific set of people, others would immediately become angry and would attack them.
The nature of living being is strange.
As long as they know that they would die they would try their best to kill others.
If they cannot live they do not want others to live as well.
So if there is a big accident when they are on ship.
Saving people need to be done discretely.
If not things would turn to the bad side.
……………
Vicky and the girls made some plans and other things.
Natasha and Sakura made more contribution in this matter.
They can understand the situation more clearly and plan the things to their best interests.
With their plan explained all the other girls and Vicky thought of the feasibility of the plan.
Only when they thought that the plan did not have many flaws they accepted it.
Even if the flaw appeared they would directly dispose the saving candidates to remove the flaw.
That is if the flaw appeared because of Jerry, Aivana and her people then Vicky and his girls would decisively abandon them on the spot.
To Vicky and his girls living is the most important thing.
Yes he values friendship but not at the cost of his life.
If he did that he is not different than an idiot.
If it is for his loved ones like the loyal wife and filial children then he would definitely take the risk of life.
But for a friend he would not take that risk and cut of the problem at the root cause.
A friend that can bring a life threatening problem to threaten his life and his women’s life is not a good friend.
With the decision made 2 days passed by quickly.
That day everyone got to the port.
Vicky and his girls quickly joined up with Aivana and Gilol.
Gilol introduced Vicky as the cooking staff along with his women.
But no one knows that the people beside Vicky are woman.
All of them covered their body with a special armor and there is also a cloak to cover their appearance.
There is no inspection and they got on the ship.
They would set sail in 2 hours.
There are more than 32 ships and the formation of the movement would be with hierarchy.
That is people from 6-star level can travel at the center of the formation in their ship.
People with lower level would be at the outermost edge.
Even though it is unfair no one would refuse this.
Just going out of this place is already good and they don’t want to fuzz over the small things.
Also no one expect the other person to save them because they are already unwilling to save them.
Since it is like that the people at the outer edge would be the cannon fodder or the people without much background.
When Vicky saw this formation he suddenly had a bad feeling.
That is the system might bring over another stupid protagonist around this time.
An accidental encounter and gaining some great benefits,
This is the best situation for something like that to happen.
As soon as Vicky got the doubt Vicky told Ginny to pay attention to all the ships for special situations.
The situations like bullying, assassinating or something strange in this dangerous situation.
Ginny and all the girls understood this situation and they would stay alert if something like that were to happen.
