Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 193

Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Space Zombie Crystals

The trio’s eyes widened in shock.

Without thinking, all three men dropped to their knees in front of Dong Shin.

“Please, General!” Hao Chen begged, his voice trembling with fear.

“We didn’t know! We swear, we didn’t know! Please forgive us!”

Xie Liang and Fang Qian echoed his plea, their heads bowed low, sweat trickling down their faces.

They were terrified of what might come next.

Dong Shin stared down at them for a long moment, the tension in the room palpable.

His eyes flicked between each of them, as though deciding whether they were worth sparing or simply disposing of.

Finally, he let out a low chuckle, a sound that sent shivers down their spines.

He waved his hand dismissively, as though brushing off their pleas.

“Get up,” he commanded, his voice firm but not angry.

“You saved yourselves today by bringing me this information. As much as you three are pathetic, your timing is impeccable.”

Hao Chen and the others cautiously rose to their feet, their hearts still pounding.

They exchanged glances, unsure if they were truly in the clear.

Dong Shin stood up from his desk, his expression hardening once more. He turned to the soldier who had brought them in.

“Track down Chen Mu. I want him found. He’s going to answer for this.”

The soldier saluted, immediately rushing off to carry out the order.

Dong Shin then looked back at the trio.

“As for you three… I’m not in the habit of hiring cowards. But given what you’ve told me, I’ll make an exception. You’re in my service now. Consider yourselves lucky.”

Hao Chen, Xie Liang, and Fang Qian barely managed to suppress their sighs of relief.

“Thank you, General,” Hao Chen said quickly, bowing his head. “We won’t let you down.”

Dong Shin, however, was already focused on the next task.

He turned back to his desk, his mind clearly on the betrayal that had been laid bare before him.

“And deal with that evidence Boss Su mentioned,” he ordered. “I want it destroyed before she can use it.”

The trio remained silent as Dong Shin’s subordinate quickly left to carry out the general’s orders, grateful that they had just narrowly escaped a potential death sentence.

Pressing his throbbing head, Dong Shin asked the remaining subordinates to lead the three of them to the resting area.

The trio repeatedly bowed to Dong Shin before leaving.

Once they were led to a run-down resting room, a healer healed their wounds. Finally after giving them some instructions the military solider left too.

A silence ensured in the atmosphere, as the trio glanced at each other. Gone was the relief and gratitude, as an empty look appeared in their eyes.

One by one they start to mutter.

“We did as you told us to do Boss Su. They have fallen for your plan.”

“We will try to win Dong Shin’s trust as you had asked us to do.”

“Boss Su we will tell you any news we come across from here onwards.”

Su Jiyai calmly listened to their words and smirked.

Her three bullies were too talented and she couldn’t waste their talent by killing them, instead, she placed them as a spy in her enemy’s base.

She also created a misunderstanding between Dong Shin and Chen Mu using them.

Killing three birds with one stone.

As for how she knew that Dong Shin was the one behind the attacks, it was thanks to her bullies who had overheard Chen Mu’s conversation once.

Su Jiyai asked the system about the military soldiers who stirred up trouble last time and easily located them.

After forcing down a mind-controlling pill in their mouths, she ordered them,

“You will spy on the military and tell me all the news. Try to act as a good spy team and spy on other bases for the military. Before reporting the news to the military, you will report everything to me.

I will decide what you can report and what you can’t. Don’t even think about disobeying me, otherwise you will die.”

Su Jiyai lacked an intelligence team and she was planning to build it.

With the arrival of her three bullies who possess incredible superpowers, everything became easy for her.

Of course, the three bullies weren’t the only ones she would employ.

She wanted to know everything happening on all the other bases. If anyone dares to lay on her base like Chen Mu, then she wants to destroy them before they can attack.

With so much responsibility on her shoulders, she can’t sit and wait for them to strike, right?

After meeting those frightening entities, Su Jiyai understood the severity of the matter.

She would need to build her own army or at least a superpower squad that would hunt with her in different dimensions.

Only after grabbing unique items can she make the humans stronger ,win the battle against zombies and reduce the strength of that entity.

“System as long as I weaken the entity’s control over this world, it will become weaker right?”

To have a head-on fight with the entity would be idiotic. It is too powerful and she is too weak. Even if she used up her entire lifetime to cultivate her superpower and gobble up unique resources, defeating the entity would be a dream.

The system responded to Su Jiyai’s question, its tone calm and calculating as always.

[Correct, Host. The entity’s power is tied to its influence over this world. By weakening its control, you reduce its strength. However, remember, direct confrontation should only be considered once its power has significantly diminished. The more control you strip from it, the weaker it will become.]

“I know.” Su Jiyai massaged her temples. “Make a list of all the potentially strong individuals in the base, I want to make a squad.”

[Right away host.]

“Also, I want space zombie crystal cores as well as fire zombie crystal cores. Oh right! How far I am from breakthrough?”

She was talking about her dimension hunting superpower.
