As long as we confirm that the information is right, Ronak will hand you the supplies.\" Ivy replied; her response was so quick that it almost sounded like a scam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the middle-aged man didn’t think so. While entering the living room, a fishy smell had wafted in his nose, and his hanging heart had relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Hm... she is speaking the truth mostly. However, I should still take precautions.’ The man thought in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright. My name is Jordan. Before I tell you the location, give me some advanced payment.\" Jordan proposed; his voice was laced with absolute certainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How much?\" Ivy didn’t haggle. Everything concerning her real family was valuable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At least 100 kg of rice.\" Jordan feigned calmness, but his fist under the table was clenched tightly. Only he knew how nervous he was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he saw Ivy’s expression turning grim, Jordan cursed himself in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Sh*t... did I ask for too much? What if she declines? God! My greed! I should reduce the price...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could open his mouth, though, he heard Ivy’s deep, melodious voice, \"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He watched with widened eyes as Ivy nodded at Ronak, their esteemed base leader.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ronak’s departing figure, Jordan’s hands turned clammy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump! Thump!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jordan’s heart trembled with anticipation, and he almost jumped up from his seat in delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Jackpot! I have truly hit a jackpot. If I knew someone could offer so much for Felix and his family, I should have made connections with them... no, wait! I can still do it! I will deliberately make this couple go in circles and build a good relationship with the Nightbanes. Once they completely trust, I will help both sides meet!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jordan almost cheered in delight because of his smartness. Thinking about the upcoming good days, he masked the scheming glint in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Ronak entered with two bags of rice. Each of them was 50 kg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jordan had to use all of his willpower not to leap out of his chair and hug those bags; instead, he forced himself to look at Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright then. They are at....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop.\" Ivy lifted her hand, her eyes narrowing. For a moment, the atmosphere turned cold, and Jordan suddenly felt an invisible pressure on himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump! Thump!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jordan’s heart raced again, but this time it was not out of pleasure but out of pressure. His body tensed up, and his eyes widened in fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What the fuck is happening? God... there is so much pressure in the air... I feel as if... I might die any second...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jordan, before you give me any answer, I want to state two conditions. First, we will go to the location you have told us, and if we don’t find the Nightbane family there for the next 3 days, you will not get any reward.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jordan’s heart contracted, while her pupil dilated. For a moment, he heavily suspected that Ivy knew about what he was going to do as shame started to claw at his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy smirked when she saw the guilt flashing in Jordan’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Did he truly think that I am blind enough not to see the scheming glint in his eyes? I have lived in the apocalypse far enough to know what kind of scheme a human mind can come up with.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second, if we don’t find them, then you will be blacklisted, and none of your relatives will be allowed to apply. Also, we might demand compensation too.\" Ivy’s gentle voice sounded like a haunting melody to Jordan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jordan gulped and tried his best to remain calm, yet his voice cracked toward the end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know... I know. I never wanted to deceive you in the first place. I... I will tell the truth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not finished.\" Ivy still had a polite smile on her face, silencing Jordan’s desperate attempt with her own ruthless words, \"I might hold a grudge in case you disappoint me. So... use your chance like your life depends on it. Because it indeed does.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas’s heart pounded on seeing the sly expression on Ivy’s face, coupled with a dangerous glint, and he almost wanted to rush up to her and kiss her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’My god... my Ivy... truly looks like a sin. A hot, intoxicating sin I want to commit!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling tightness in his lower abdomen, Silas closed his eyes in dismay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you aroused, Silas?\" A deep masculine voice echoed near his ears, and Silas gritted his teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Drake will love to hear the personal dirty name you have selected for him and never dare to say loudly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ronak jumped away from Silas as if he were scalded and looked at Silas with a wronged gaze. \"Hey... dude, you... why can’t you take a joke well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas ignored him and focused his attention on the masterpiece of God: Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By now, Jordan was shaken to the core and didn’t dare to hide anything from Ivy. All the schemes left his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are residing in the Fortis base. It is just 20 km from here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How do you know?\" Ivy asked with a narrowed gaze; she looked like a cop interrogating a criminal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Nightbane family had issued a mission asking if anyone knew about a girl with pink hair and promised to give 1000 kg of rice as a reward...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Midway through his sentence, Jordan froze.\u003C\u002Fp>",1012,"2026-06-05T15:12:36.807Z",1,"novelbin.me","f7b1afc1aade866eee976e1355553e13a71044a67a9675ebaff338991b0ff342","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-75","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-74",706,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-cover.jpg"]
