Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 45

Chapter 45: Chapter 45: Little Xin

Though the environment was very unclean, the air had a strange smell and the base was frequently infiltrated by zombies, the base still provided some level of security.

Fei Bao’s mother had the same thoughts.

Fei Bao could see the doubt in their eyes but decided not to push further. He knew the place he found was indeed safer and more accommodating than their current base.

“I am telling the truth. The rent is as low as 5000 federal coins, the amenities are much more advanced, and there is also a fan.”

“Fan?” All three women were stunned.

“Yes.” Fei Bao nodded, “The food is cheap too…”

“Hey! You kid, you have learned to lie too? Whom are you trying to fool? How can the rent be cheap if there a Fans? Even if they use solar panels the electricity bill should be high! Not to mention fans are so expensive! So how can someone be willing to give it for free?”

Fans were a common commodity during the peaceful aura, but after the apocalypse, the production of fans decreased.

The reason was very strange.

All the fans or heater production companies get constantly attacked by zombies.

It was as if the zombies hated fans and heaters.

At first, the base still tried to fight back but later when they realized they couldn’t defeat the zombies, they gave up on those companies.

Since then the price of fans increased.

“I am telling the truth.” Fei Bao said firmly.

“Aunt Mu please don’t interfere in our matter.” Fei Ling said. She can sense her brother’s irritation.

Aunt Mu scoffed but didn’t say more.

Fei Bao’s mother still looked unsure.

“But where is this place? How do we know it’s safe?” she asked.

Fei Bao took a deep breath and tried to reassure her. “Mom, trust me. I’ve been there, and it’s well-protected. It’s a chance for us to live without fear every day.”

After some hesitation, Fei Bao’s mother finally nodded. “Alright, let’s pack up then.”

Aunt Mu snorted and left the place.

She didn’t forget to tell the news to her neighbors.

Some were curious, some believed Fei Bao and tagged along with him, while some felt Fei Bao was lying.

As a result, Su Jiyai who absorbing a zombie crystal suddenly received a prompt from her system.

[Host, the guest of room 5 has brought 12 people with him.]

“10?” Su Jiyai was worried.

After renting a room to Ning Wei, two to the Rui family, two to Fei Bao and Dong Junhua, so now she was only left with 5 rooms.

[Host, don’t worry. All 12 of them have come empty-handed except for the guest in room no. 5, they won’t rent the place right away.]

“But how I will explain the existence of new rooms that will appear out of thin air?” Su Jiyai was truly worried.

[Host, you don’t need to explain. If anyone dares to question, just ignore them. No one can get an answer out of you anyway.]

“What if they harm the tenants living in the residence?”

[In case any tenant or an outsider uses violence, he or she will be teleported out of the residence.]

Su Jiyai was instantly relieved.

“Good.”

She realized how overpowering her system was!

Su Jiyai opened the monitor and waited for Fei Bao to arrive.

Fei Bao was currently out of the electric fence and was explaining to the 10 people who had come along with him,

“The boss is very kind, however, don’t take his kindness for granted. Don’t harbor any evil thoughts it will backfire. Also don’t damage any property of the resident…”

Fei Bao talked for a long time before stopping.

One of the young boys who was just 10 years old couldn’t help but interrupt him,

“Brother Fei, why are you talking so much? We have followed you for so long do you think we will do anything that will harm your reputation?”

“Yes! Brother Fei believe us!”

“Yeah!”

Looking at the huge metallic blue electric wall-like fence, the 12 people were stunned.

At first, they thought the wall was cool but once they neared the metallic blue wall, they realized…it was emitting electricity!

It is so scary and….so secure!

Isn’t thunder the most effective against the zombie?

As long as they stay on the other side of the metallic blue wall, they won’t have to worry during their rest time!

“Okay, let’s go!” Fei Bao wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked up to the electric wall.

A scanner scanned him and Fei Bao said,

“Boss Su, I have returned, I have brought some extra people with me, will it be alright?”

If others didn’t know Fei Bao, they would have misunderstood him!

He sounded as if he was selling them!

“Okay.” Su Jiyai said.

However, the people only heard a mechanical voice.

The wall opened and Fei Bao went back to his jeep.

As he derived inside, a small base of buildings on vast land appeared.

The small base of the building looked particularly isolated at the moment.

The 12 people however didn’t dare to comment.

(Author: 10 strangers plus one Fei Bao’s mother, and one Fei Bao’s sister!)

They say…don’t judge a book by its cover!

As soon as the 12 people entered the building’s base all of them were stunned.

What?

Does such a luxurious place exist in the apocalypse?

The cool air, the vending machine, the neat and clean outer hall, and the soft sofa!

Even the rooms looked so luxurious!

The soul of 12 people almost flew out.

Fei Bao led the 10 people inside his room.

Though the room became congested, the 10 people still had the space to stand.

Fei Bao clicked on the button in the room and said,

“Boss Su I want to rent one more room for the next 6 months.”

Saying so he placed a bag of zombie crystals in the compartment.

The bag of zombie crystal vanished and a black room card appeared.

Earlier the room card required people to drop their blood, but after Su Jiyai’s request the system modified the room card, and now as long as the person swipes the card of the room as the first person, the person will become the owner.

“Mom go and swipe it.”

Fei Bao led his mother and others out.

Fei Bao’s mother took the black room card hesitantly and walked out with the others. As they reached the newly rented room, she swiped the card as instructed.

The door opened with a soft click, revealing a cozy and clean space, much better than their previous living conditions.

Everyone looked around in awe, unable to believe their luck. Fei Bao’s mother was especially moved. She turned to him, tears in her eyes.

After shifting so many places, this was the first time she felt so relieved.

She doesn’t know what was the reason she was so fearful.

Maybe because of Aunt Mu’s comment?

Maybe the fear, that she will be abandoned…

However, the fear was replaced by relief when she saw the high metallic blue electric wall. She was further moved when she saw the clean environment and the luxurious room.

Worried about the rent she couldn’t help but ask,

“Bao’er, how much does the rent cost?”

“5000 federal coins.” Fei Bao said calmly.

“So cheap?” Fei Ling asked with surprise.

“Yes.”

Fei Bao’s mother wasn’t relieved and asked,

“Is the food expensive here?”

“No, Mom the food is very good and cheap too. You don’t need to worry about anything.”

Fei Bao’s mother was relieved.

She was 50 years old and didn’t want to burden her filial son anymore.

“Good!”

Su Jiyai heard their conversation and felt relieved.

As long as more people could live a good life, she would feel the life wasn’t as bad as it seemed!

“Boss Su, I want to rent a room too!”

“Me too!”

“Boss Su, give me two!”

…..

One by one all the remaining people started to shout, except for one small boy.

“Please register only when you have packed your bags.” Su Jiyai said through the mic.

“Sure! Boss Su, please reserve a room for me. I want to rent for an entire year!”

“Me too!”

Su Jiyai chuckled, she could feel her mission was about to be completed soon. Suddenly the small boy who was quiet till all this time said,

“Boss Su I want to talk about something with you personally.”

“Ah? Little Xin? What do you want to talk about?” Fei Bao asked.

Little Xin smiled and said,

“Brother Fei I want to negotiate with the boss, can you please call him for me?”

“You can walk to room no. 1 and communicate with me personally from there.” Su Jiyai said.

Little Xin was instantly delighted and entered room no. 1. He carefully closed the door, and walked in.

Like the other rooms, he saw the button and pressed it.

“Boss Su, I have a deal to propose.”
