The Undead and Unstoppable Apocalyptic Queen novel Chapter 305

Chapter 305 The Ultimate Weapon

Never let humanity catch its breath. Because once it does, it will rise again and turn the tide!

Theresa stood at the command, looking out over the city they had just taken back. A radiant smile gradually spread across her face.

We really did it!

And we did it just in time, too–before the third year of the apocalypse, when the zombies become fully evolved!

By taking the initiative during the most critical period–the early stages–she had managed to execute a brilliant reversal of humanity’s fate.

They had taken back Ansford!

From this day on, their camp would no longer be a series of remote little shabby outposts with zero resources that were constantly under the threat of zombies.

They were back to living in a city.

With Ansford as their center, they would eventually build fortified walls around the city. Various industries -such as agriculture, manufacturing, production, science, and technology–would be revived once more.

This place would become the new foundation for humanity, where they could finally stand against the

zombie hordes outside!

Theresa was buzzing with triumph when a series of notifications entered her mind.

‘Ding! You have successfully conquered two regions.

‘You have been awarded a full upgrade for all bunker equipment!‘

‘Ding! An upgrade to the warehouse had been detected!

“Storage capacity has increased tenfold!

Prosperity level has increased! Current prosperity level: 1000 (Major Metropolis)!

She staggered slightly, overwhelmed by the avalanche of rewards.

The warehouse, the UAV system, the radar system, the basic defensive system, and the domain system….. everything had leveled up.

Plus, there were ten helicopters and a nuclear bomb!

Theresa stared in disbelief at the ten massive helicopters neatly parked inside her domain, along with a

She pulled out the red button. As soon as the red button left her domain, she sensed a massive weapon hidden deep under the sea… ready to launch at her command.

Holy crap!

That’s my nuclear bomb!

I’ve hit the jackpot!

I now own a nuclear bomb!

The ultimate weapon!

The destructive power of a nuclear bomb was honestly not quite as terrifying as people imagined. Although a nuclear bomb would annihilate everything at ground zero, the blast radius was actually quite limited.

Those either hiding deep underground or far enough away would survive the impact.

That was why nuclear wars between major nations were never resolved with just one missile.

Any country planning to launch a nuclear strike had to choose its target city carefully, striving to either destroy or cripple the enemy’s nuclear capacity in one strike so that the enemy could not retaliate.

That strategy was known as the first–strike capability.

If the first strike failed, the attacking nation would inevitably provoke an overwhelming counterstrike from the enemy. At this point, a nation’s second–strike capability would be put to the test.

The second–strike capability was basically a nation’s ability to survive a nuclear strike and subsequently launch a retaliatory strike.

Therefore, a nuclear war was essentially a contest of nuclear strength and endurance.

That was especially true for countries with vast territories. It was impossible to target the entire territory, so only key cities would be targeted in an attempt to paralyze the nation’s infrastructure.

But because muclear bombs were so expensive to maintain, many pre–apocalyptic nuclear nations lacked the ability to stockpile multiple warheads or sustain their second–strike capability.

That was why nuclear bombs were more often used for deterrence than actual offense.

Most nations generally adhered to the minimum standard, such as the “Red Square Standard–whereby just one nuclear bomb was considered sufficient deterrent against any major power with nuclear weapons, preventing their enemies from acting rashly.

Now that Theresa had just gotten her hands on an epic–level strategic weapon, she suddenly felt more at

case.

It was the ultimate failsafe!

One more hidden ace up my sleeve!

She was reeling from the excitement when she heard a familiar voice coming from outside.

“Theresa!”

It was Lucas.

Brimming with uncontained exhilaration, she turned around and gave him a fierce hug. “Lucas!”

The sudden embrace caught him completely by surprise, and he froze in place,

His heart instantly started pounding like crazy.
