All Chapters of The Endgame Chronicles: Chapter 961 - Chapter 970

The new weapons were safer, too.Every piece of equipment across Haylight League went through a full upgrade.Hayley led everyone forward inch by inch as they reclaimed their lost territory.Three days later, Ark Two was the first to send back good news.Its outer zone had been fully retaken.Compared to the other two bases, Ark Two's location had always been far more vulnerable.It was a ground-based fortress divided into three defensive rings: the outer zone, the middle zone, and the inner zone, each one more heavily fortified than the last.The outer zone had fallen before, but thankfully, there had never been enough zombies roaming the desert wasteland to overwhelm them completely.Under Leena's leadership, Ark Two steadily recovered.The zombie hordes surrounding the other three Ark bases had also been mostly cleared out.The grasslands, desert regions, and deep mountain ranges naturally had far fewer zombies to begin with.Without Ascendant Creed intentionally guiding

After hearing that, Josh kept thanking her over and over."Thank you, Ms. Reid!""Yeah, don't do that." Hayley kicked him lightly to the side. Josh might not deserve to die, but that didn't mean Hayley suddenly liked him.She wasn't about to let a cheating jerk like him act all grateful toward her. Just looking at him annoyed her.Hayley passed the message along to Maisie.Meanwhile, inside Haylight Base.Maisie was busy assigning personnel and organizing status reports for everyone.Robert was still recovering from his injuries, so most of his responsibilities had temporarily been handed over to her.Hayley was out leading operations to reclaim territory, which meant a mountain of complicated administrative work had piled up in the rear.Personnel assignments, shift rotations, and rest schedules all had to be properly organized.Colin came sprinting into her office, panting hard. "Maisie, something happened!" "What is it?" Maisie didn't even look up, her hands still movi

By now, Maisie genuinely loved life in Haylight League. She loved the work, loved finally having the chance to prove her own worth.So when she learned Josh was still alive and had come looking for her, she found herself completely conflicted. After Colin told her the news, she sat in silence for a long time before finally giving him a clear answer.She wasn't going to see him.No matter what they had once shared, she had already chosen Hayley, chosen Haylight League, and chosen this new life for herself. She genuinely liked it here.Hearing that, Hayley nodded with clear approval. "Maisie, I want to officially bring you onto my direct team. From now on, you'll be treated the same as Leonard, Griffin, Robert, Jim, and Sienna. You'll report directly to me."Maisie's eyes instantly brightened. "But... I just got here. I haven't really earned that yet.""So?" Hayley said calmly. "You'll have plenty of chances to prove yourself later. What matters is whether you want it.""I d

If Josh hadn't ended up in Liam's Base K1, he probably would've tried for Milo's Firebrand Base instead.But Firebrand Base wasn't easy to get into, and Milo had a notoriously bad temper. Compared to that, Liam was far easier to approach.Base K1 had taken heavy losses during the war. When Josh showed up willing to enlist, Liam ran a quick background check, confirmed he wasn't a threat, and accepted him without much trouble.What Josh didn't realize yet was that joining Base K1 and entering Haylight Base were two entirely different things.Maisie now worked directly under Hayley and had already become part of the inner circle at Haylight Base. Josh, meanwhile, was just another rookie among thousands of soldiers in Base K1.Even if he eventually fought his way into Liam's personal unit, he would still come face-to-face with another reality: the gap between Base K1 and Haylight Base was far bigger than he imagined.Even ten K1s put together still wouldn't compare to half of Hayli

After Josh heard that, his expression shifted. Something bitter and regretful settled in his eyes.So, after leaving him, Maisie had become someone people admired.He had let someone truly important slip through his hands."Josh, you okay?" Jasmine glanced at him, catching the look on his face.Josh didn't answer. He just picked up his utensils and kept eating, though his gaze kept drifting toward Maisie across the room.Jasmine studied him quietly. There was something worn-down about him, the kind of exhaustion that came from carrying too much for too long. "Did you come all the way here because you heard the League was recruiting people through the broadcast?"This time, Josh answered. "No. I lost my wife. I came to find her."Donnie and Charlie both stared at him in shock. Even Jasmine looked intrigued now."Your wife's with the League too?""Yeah.""Who is she?"Josh watched Maisie standing in the crowd, surrounded by people, impossible to miss."When I win her back
