Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Chaos
Gradually, Felix began thinking that perhaps James had truly changed.
Eventually, the two even became close friends.
Since Kael had been busy helping Martha with various matters, Felix and James often went out together on patrols.
However...
Recently, Felix started feeling something strange.
It felt as if someone was watching him.
At first, he dismissed it.
But the uneasy feeling kept growing stronger.
One day, James approached him quietly.
"Felix... do you feel it too?" he asked.
"Feel what?"
James lowered his voice.
"It feels like someone has been watching you."
Felix frowned.
"Now that you mention it... I’ve noticed something like that too."
James nodded grimly.
"If I’m right... someone might be planning to attack you."
Felix’s expression turned serious.
"What do you suggest?"
James thought for a moment before replying.
"You should avoid crowded areas... and don’t wander around alone."
Felix nodded.
However, after a few more days, the feeling of being watched became even stronger.
Finally, James suggested something.
"Why don’t we set a trap?" he said.
Felix looked at him curiously.
"We’ll go somewhere isolated," James explained. "You pretend to be alone. If someone really plans to attack you, they’ll take the chance."
He smiled slightly.
"And when they appear... we take them down together."
Felix considered it carefully.
Then he nodded.
"Alright."
While they were preparing for this plan...
Elsewhere, another form of rebellion was quietly beginning to take shape.
It all began with Jenna.
After conducting a deep investigation, Ivy had eventually reached a clear conclusion, there was corruption inside the base.
However, the situation wasn’t as severe as she had initially feared.
It wasn’t the kind of corruption where honest or capable people were completely barred from entering.
Without hesitation, Ivy removed Jenna from the base.
When Jenna learned about it, rage burned fiercely inside her chest. Her fingers trembled as she clenched them into tight fists.
’How dare she...’
For a moment, she even considered marching straight to Ivy and confronting her face to face.
However, the moment she remembered the bet she had made with Ivy earlier, she could only swallow the grievance bitterly.
There was only one small mercy.
Ivy hadn’t been completely heartless.
Instead of banning Jenna from the base entirely, Ivy had simply removed her from office and forced her to go through the normal procedure of renting an apartment like everyone else.
But that procedure itself was extremely troublesome.
The long lines, the endless paperwork, the inspections...
For someone who had once lived comfortably with privileges, the entire process felt humiliating.
By the time Jenna finally managed to re-enter the base, the anger inside her chest had already been simmering for days.
When people inside the base began noticing her, whispers quickly spread through the crowd.
"Isn’t that... Jenna?"
"The famous superstar?"
One by one, people began approaching her.
Many of them were fans who had admired her long before the apocalypse.
Some even asked eagerly, "Miss Jenna, could you perform a singing session for us?"
Jenna’s eyes flashed subtly.
An idea formed inside her mind.
Instead of rejecting them, she smiled warmly.
"Of course," she replied.
Soon, she began gathering all the fans she had inside the base.
Then she made an announcement.
"Each concert will only cost ten crystals."
The price was extremely cheap.
In a world where people were constantly tense, exhausted, and depressed by survival, entertainment had become a rare luxury.
Because of the low price, people quickly began attending her concerts.
The atmosphere during the performances was lively.
Music filled the air, temporarily allowing people to forget the harsh reality outside the walls.
Meanwhile, Jenna quietly began collecting crystals.
At the same time...
She was also quietly building something else.
An army.
At first, her words were subtle.
During concerts, she casually mentioned how Ivy had removed her from the base.
"I never expected such treatment," she would sigh softly.
Later, the tone of her speeches gradually changed.
She began throwing small shades at Ivy.
Then she began discussing "injustices."
"Some people inside the base have been imprisoned unfairly," she told the crowd one night, her voice filled with sadness. "There are innocent people suffering."
The reason Jenna was doing all of this was simple.
She wanted to create unrest.
She wanted Ivy to realize how much influence Jenna herself possessed.
The moment that thought appeared in her mind, excitement surged through her.
’If enough people stand against Ivy,’ Jenna thought smugly, ’she won’t have a choice but to compromise with me.’
Her confidence grew larger every day.
And because of that confidence, Jenna decided to take a far more extreme step.
Her first major move...
Was to free the prisoners.
There was another reason behind this decision.
Jenna had recently learned that her boyfriend had been imprisoned.
His crime?
He had attacked someone who tried to approach Jenna aggressively.
From the moment he was imprisoned, Jenna’s resentment toward the prison system had grown stronger and stronger.
To her, the prison was nothing more than a place that punished people for the smallest mistakes.
So she chose it as her first target.
Surprisingly, the plan worked quite well.
Many of her fans, especially the die-hard ones, worked as guards inside the prison.
With their help, Jenna slowly gained access to deeper areas.
The process required careful planning and patience.
But eventually, they reached the innermost section.
One by one, they began releasing the prisoners they intended to rescue.
However, when Jenna finally tried to free her boyfriend...
Everything went wrong.
A few of the real prison guards noticed the suspicious activity.
"Stop right there!"
Alarms immediately echoed through the prison corridors.
Chaos erupted.
Some criminals were captured again.
Some were recaptured immediately.
But a few prisoners, ones who were not even part of Jenna’s rescue list, managed to escape in the confusion.
Among them was a woman.
Anisa’s mother.
As she ran through the corridors, her voice echoed loudly with hatred.
"I’ll kill Felix!" she screamed furiously. "He destroyed my life! He turned everything into hell for me!"
Her voice was so loud that several guards heard it clearly.
The alert quickly spread.
