Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 67

Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Revenge
Han Xueling was hopeful and said,

“See! Now they have stopped. They….” will start the fight now…

He couldn’t finish his words, because the next second he saw all the fighters slowly returning in their direction.

Han Xueling could see their dazed and lifeless eyes. This made them understand that something was wrong with them and he instantly said,

“Boss they…”

However, before Han Xueling could finish his sentence, one of the returning fighters suddenly dropped to his knees in front of Chen Mu, his arms flailing in the air as if he were conducting an invisible orchestra.

“Boss!” the man exclaimed, his voice trembling with emotion.

“I… I’ve been struck by the music! The groove! It’s… it’s too strong!”

Another fighter, still moonwalking in reverse, reached out and grabbed Chen Mu’s hand, pulling him into an awkward twirl.

“Join us, Boss! Feel the rhythm! Feel the soul!”

Chen Mu, caught completely off guard, stumbled backward.

“What is wrong with you all? Have you lost your minds?”

Meanwhile, the other fighters were now fully in the grip of the second gas Su Jiyai had released: the “Soul Train Serum.”

Instead of just dancing, they were now acting out scenes from classic dance movies, each trying to outdo the other in sheer ridiculousness.

Han Xueling watched in horror as one of the fighters, a normally stoic and serious man, dropped into a perfect split, then popped back up and started lip-syncing to an imaginary microphone.

“Boss, we… we need to get out of here!” Han Xueling finally shouted, grabbing Chen Mu’s arm.

“Whatever that gas is, it’s turning them into… into dance maniacs!”

Chen Mu, finally realizing the severity of the situation, yanked his arm free and glared at the car where Su Jiyai was still sitting, laughing to herself.

“Curse you, Boss Su! I don’t know how you did this, but you won’t get away with it!”

But before he could issue any orders, one of the fighters, now fully committed to his breakdancing routine, slid up to Chen Mu and tried to pull him into a dance battle.

“Come on, Boss! Show us your moves!”

Chen Mu slapped the man’s hands away and spun around.

He placed a hand on his head and suddenly few magnetic waves started to emit from his mind.

When the magnetic waves started to hit the fighters, all of them slowly regained their senses.

“Encircle that b*stard now!” Chen Mu shouted. He continued to use his superpower so that his fighters wouldn’t be affected by the gas released by Boss Su’s vehicle.

[Ding! The mission has been completed! You can redeem the rewards now!]

“System I think we should leave now.” Su Jiyai was thrilled. She got her revenge and she even got a reward for it.

Everything was good.

But now looking at the angry look of Chen Mu, Su Jiyai decided to retreat. The reason was simple, she didn’t want to waste her time anymore.

As the Raven Base security forces tried to encircle the car, Su Jiyai decided it was time to make her move.

She pressed another button, and the car’s engine roared to life, the sound amplified by the force field.

The vehicle shot forward with blinding speed, heading straight for the nearest group of attackers.

They scattered, diving out of the way as the car barreled through their ranks. The force field repelled any objects in its path, creating a clear route for Su Jiyai to escape.

Chen Mu watched in disbelief as Su Jiyai’s car broke through the encirclement. He shouted orders, but it was too late.

Inside the car, Su Jiyai glanced in the rearview mirror, watching as the Raven Base grew smaller in the distance. She couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

[Host, the base leader of Raven Base is so angry that he might faint…oh, he fainted.]

Su Jiyai was amused by hearing the system’s human-like commentary. A sense of satisfaction filled her when she knew about Chen Mu’s fainting episode.

[Host you are truly ruthless. With this move, you may recruit 25 more tenants in one scoop.]

Su Jiyai shook her head. A hint of calculation appeared in her eyes as she said,

“I think it will be more than that.”

[How can you be so sure, host?]

“Because I gave them, they were lacking the most. The only thing that could sell well in this world.” Su Jiyai answered.

[What is it, host?]

“Hope.” Su Jiyai chuckled.

“Humans are a very predictable system. Do you know when I was in the military, a person contacted me and told me that as long as I followed his schedule which he was selling for 1000 credits, I would awaken a superpower?

At first, I resisted and avoided that person, but when I started to lose hope, that person gave me hope…the hope of how close I was to awakening a superpower,” Su Jiyai continued, her voice softening as she recalled the memory.

“That hope was like a lifeline, and even though I knew it might be a scam, I bought that schedule anyway.

The funny thing is, it didn’t help me awaken a superpower, but it did teach me something important: people will do anything when they think there’s a chance, even a slim one, that they can change their fate.”

The system was quiet for a moment before responding,

[Host did you have a hard life before awakening a superpower?]

“Hm? Maybe…” Su Jiyai answered.

Was sleeping on the balcony without any blanket in cold weather…difficult?

Was enduring hunger…difficult?

Was getting harassed by her adoptive father…difficult? Was getting slapped by her adoptive mother…difficult? Was becoming a scapegoat for her adoptive sister…difficult?

Was getting her only friend and so-called crush snatched…difficult ?? Was getting disdained by her colleagues…difficult? Was getting schemed against…difficult?

For a moment Su Jiyai recalled all the bad things that had happened.

However, the answer she gave the system was completely different,

“Maybe if my Brother Qin was still with me…I won’t feel the life I had was difficult.”
