Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 32

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: First Tenant-2

His hanging heart finally dropped and he sat on the floor as if all of his energy was drained.

As he did so, two steaming dishes appeared on the table next to him.

The man blinked in disbelief,

“This…this…”

“Eat something first, I don’t want you to faint.” Su Jiyai said.

The man’s eyes turned a bit watery.

How long has it been since he had seen such a tempting dish?

He cautiously approached the table, as if afraid the food might disappear if he moved too quickly.

His hands trembled as he picked up the chopsticks, and the first bite brought tears streaming down his face.

The flavors were overwhelming, a stark contrast to the meager, often tasteless rations he had been surviving on.

“This… thank you,” he murmured between bites, barely able to speak as he devoured the food with a hunger that spoke of prolonged deprivation.

Su Jiyai watched through the monitor, her heart heavy.

For the past 2 days, she has been living a luxurious life and almost forgotten how other people were suffering.

Su Jiyai swore to focus on completing the mission seriously.

[Host, he seems very grateful. This is an excellent opportunity to build trust and promote your services,] the system suggested.

“Yes,” Su Jiyai agreed, still watching the screen.

After the man finished the meal, his eyes were filled with tears.

He placed the bowl on one side and hurriedly knelt down,

“Benefactor, thank you so much! Thank you so much I won’t forget your favor!”

Su Jiyai stooped,

“Stop. No need!”

The man stopped, then he stood up and walked towards his Jeep.

He took out a bag and returned to the living room of the house.

“Benefactor this is the money for the food. I know it is not enough, but I promise to pay everything back and also pay back the money for the medicine.”

Saying so he placed the bag on the table.

Since he couldn’t see Su Jiyai, he could only look in the air with an awkward expression.

Su Jiyai asked the system to scan the bag and was surprised to see a bag full of zombie crystal core.

[Host there are 7 crystal cores. The exchange rate of crystal core to Federal coin is 1:1000.]

“So high?”

[Yes, host.]

Su Jiyai said through the microphone,

“You don’t need to give so much, one is enough.”

The man’s heart moved, this person was truly an angel!

However, he was a man of principle and said,

“No! You need to take this! You helped me so much! Not to mention, the meal definitely worth 40,000 federal coins! I am only giving 7000 federal coins.”

“No need. If you truly want to repay the gratitude why don’t you rent a house here?” Su Jiyai took the opportunity to promote her rental site.

The system gave a thumbs up to Su Jiyai. She was indeed intelligent. He was worrying for nothing!

“Huh ?” The man was a bit stunned by the sudden change of topic.

“This place is a rental building. Please walk through the corridor and go to the first room to the left.”

The man subconsciously followed Su Jiyai’s instructions and walked into a well-furniture room.

The room was cozy with just enough necessities. The thing that attracted the man’s attention the most was how clean the place was.

Su Jiyai continued to tempt him,

“Did you see the electric fence? They can prevent zombies from entering inside. Not only that, but we also provide food, medicine, and other facilities.

Also, the electricity will be 24/7 and the water will be free to use. The meal which you had just now is the standard meal and you can have it after paying the money.”

The more he listened, the more shocked the man was.

He swallowed and asked,

“Are you serious?”

For the last 2 months, the base in which he was living, didn’t have electricity, nor enough food.

Even though he was ready to pay 20 crystal cores, the most he could get was bread, a bottle of water, and a small packet of pickles.

After hesitating for a while, the man asked,

“Hm…what is the rent?”

This place was indeed much more secure and resourceful than his base, if he could stay here, then he wouldn’t have to worry about the safety of his daughter.

Su Jiyai blinked and looked at the price listed on the flyer.

“5000 federal coins.”

“What?” The man felt as if his ears were ringing.

5000 federal coins? That was half of the rental price he paid to the previous base for half a month.

“Is it per day?” The man thought hard and could only think of this possibility.

Otherwise, he doesn’t understand why the other party was so generous.

“No, per month.” Su Jiyai said.

The man was dazed.

Su Jiyai waited for his reply.

“Then…then I would like to rent one room…” The man said hesitantly

“Place 5 crystal cores on the table.” Su Jiyai announced.

Once the crystal cores were placed on the table, the system teleported the crystal core. A card appeared on the table.

The system was explained to Su Jiyai.

[Host, that is the room card. Ask the man to drop his blood on the card and say his name loudly.]

Su Jiyai repeated the system’s words to the man.

The man hesitated for a moment before pricking his finger with a small needle he carried in his pocket.

A drop of blood landed on the card, which absorbed it instantly.

“Ning Wei.”

The card glowed briefly before a soft click echoed through the room.

The door to the rented room opened automatically, revealing a comfortable living space with a bed, and a bathroom. Ning Wei’s eyes widened in amazement.

Ning Wei was filled with gratitude.

If his team members hadn’t betrayed him, if his base hadn’t kicked him out, then god knows whether he would ever have found such a treasure place.
