Chapter 423: Making The Entire World Fall Into Debt!

The meeting continued within the Going Home Club’s command room for a while.

Henry and Alan led the discussion while Zayne, Damien, and Haley remained silent, seemingly not that much interested in it.

After all, for Damien and Haley, they were only two people and didn’t have baggage and deadweights to bring with them. If they wanted to flee, they easily could.

However, Henry and Alan were faction leaders and would not only think of their survival, but also the survival of the survivors who had joined their faction.

As for Zayne, he also wasn’t interested since he had the Zenith Train whose interior space was even greater than the entire world’s area. Even if the surface of Terra was overrun by zombie marine creatures, it didn’t affect him in the slightest, as he lived in the Zenith Train with Jade and his train crewmates.

It was also for this reason that he had wanted to acquire a movable shelter from the Doomsday Life Simulation. It now proved to be very useful, as it allowed him to remain indifferent to anything that would befall humanity on the surface world.

Let alone Zayne, even Jade wasn’t interested in this. She had already severed ties with her parents and had given them sufficient compensation, so she wasn’t interested in how they’d fare in this zombie apocalypse.

If she couldn’t even bother with her parents, it was a given that other people no longer concerned her. Only Zayne and the Zenith Train Crewmates were what mattered to her.

Due to this, Jade didn’t even leave the Zenith Train, which showed her stance that she wasn’t interested in this matter. Of course, she still paid attention to what everyone talked about during the meeting.

Within the Zenith Train, everyone outside wouldn’t know about the Zenith Train’s existence, but Zayne and his train crewmates could easily observe the outside world.

Eventually, when the meeting was almost concluded, Benedict couldn’t help but pose a question, "Henry, do you think all of us are enough to deal with the zombie marine creatures?"

"Our country doesn’t have that many powerhouses, and we might have to ask other major countries to lend assistance as this concerns humanity’s survival."

Not only Benedict, but other Evolver Overlords and Evolver Emperors also despaired at the thought of facing those zombie marine creatures.

The animals and plants that had mutated into zombies had already caused some parts of the country to be sealed off and labeled as a forbidden zone, yet what was even more dangerous was the ocean filled with mutated marine creatures.

After all, just the fish alone were estimated to be in the trillions, while crustaceans, mollusks, worms, jellyfish, etc., were approximately in the quadrillions. Of course, most of them were just estimates, since not even a fourth of the entire ocean was explored by humanity.

As for large marine creatures, they were much fewer. For example, whales were estimated to be around tens of thousands.

But it was specifically those large marine creatures that had a high chance of becoming a Zombie Overlord and Zombie Emperor, especially when they could devour those weaker creatures like zombie fishes and crustaceans to wantonly improve their power.

Henry and Alan naturally knew how despairing it was to face those marine creatures that had mutated into zombies. Even when Haley was stronger than Henry, even she could only keep Damien and herself safe.

As for those zombie marine creatures? Heh, countless dogs could bite an elephant to death, let alone those large marine creatures that were at King rank and above.

However, Henry hadn’t completely fallen into despair.

To reassure them, Henry spoke up, "If it’s only all of us, we are naturally not a match for the entire ocean. But if we include Zayne Voss, the World’s Strongest, then those Zombie Overlords are mere ants that aren’t worthy to be near his presence."

"Of course, the premise is that my bro agrees. Otherwise, if he is unwilling, then we can all just pack up and rely on our own skills to save ourselves from this disaster."

Regarding Henry’s claim of Zayne being the World’s Strongest, none of them doubted him.

After all, Zayne’s bloodline pressure had truly made them realize that the gap between people was sometimes larger than the gap between a person and a dog.

Facing Zayne, they weren’t even worthy to be called a dog. After all, a dog could still harm and potentially kill a person, yet they couldn’t achieve that against Zayne, which truly made them even more worthless.

Receiving the gazes of everyone in the room, Zayne indifferently gazed back at them.

This many people didn’t affect him in any way. After all, the number of world- and star-destroying powerhouses who gazed at him and attacked him when he was collecting World Globes far exceeded these weaklings.

He merely responded, "Since this is the first Monthly Apocalypse, I presume that everyone hasn’t fully adapted yet and humanity is still lagging."

"I’ll make an exception and make a move just this once. As for the Second Monthly Apocalypse and the following world updates, you all had to fend for yourselves."

"Know only this: everyone who has benefited from this one action of mine shall owe me a favor."

When stating those words, Zayne had secretly used his Loan Shark’s Ledger to impose such debts on them.

As for the common people and the average survivors who didn’t know about this, they also owed him this debt of favor. After all, he didn’t need their agreement for the Loan Shark’s Ledger to take effect.

Just like how he had schemed against those Terran Train Conductors in the train survival universe, merely granting them benefits would incur debts to those things that he had "given" to them. Those benefits they deemed as "free" were actually already marked with a price.

After all, Zayne wasn’t some benevolent god.

Everything he did would ultimately benefit himself, just like the establishment of the Nine Rules of Order had allowed him to be conceptually immortal for as long as it existed.
