My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 719

Meanwhile, Sparrow and Vulture exchanged a look of mutual betrayal.

"...You knew and didn't say anything?" Sparrow accused.

Vulture cleared his throat. "I wasn't the one who opened the line! How the hell was I supposed to know?!"

The sound of muffled laughter echoed through the radio once more, making Sparrow groan. "I swear to God, when we stop, I'm throwing hands."

This only made the laughter harder to contain.

After their playful banter, Kisha's laughter gradually faded as she turned her attention to the remaining people at the hidden base—the Blythes and the new workers tending to the fields.

Despite being left behind without any combatants to protect them, none of them seemed panicked. The base was in a secluded location, fortified with an array of hidden traps, the exact placements of which even they weren't entirely sure of.

Because of this, they felt secure, unthreatened by potential zombie attacks or outsiders who might attempt to harass them.

In fact, rather than fear, a sense of authority and freedom settled over them. The vast, well-defended territory felt like theirs to command, allowing them to go about their tasks without worry.

Besides, they knew Kisha and the others wouldn't abandon them—she had taken no supplies with her, leaving the base fully stocked. All they had to do was continue their work and wait for Kisha and the rest to return.

One more thing—Kisha intentionally left them behind to observe how they would work under these circumstances.

Without anyone watching over them, would they remain diligent, or would they take advantage of the situation and slack off? This was a test to reveal their true nature.

Their actions during this period would determine the specific tasks Kisha assigned them moving forward, especially for the Blythes. Although she had already made promises to them, this would serve as the final screening to ensure they remained consistent, even when unsupervised.

After all, the true test of character wasn't how someone behaved under scrutiny but how they acted when no one was watching.

Were they genuinely hardworking, or were they merely submissive to the strong while preying on the weak? The same went for the newcomers—Kisha wanted to see their true colors before placing her trust in them.

Seeing that everyone was eagerly working on the pilot, discussing which crops to prioritize based on climate, needs, and location, Kisha felt reassured. Satisfied with their progress, she moved the screen displaying their work to the side and instead shifted her focus to something she had yet to thoroughly check—her achievements, titles, and their effects.
