Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System - Chapter 93

Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Mystery Box

A cleaning robot.

Su Jiyai wasn’t unaware of the cleaning robot but the one in the system’s panel was too unique. She only needs to turn it on, and the robot will make a map of the entire place in its memory.

Once the map is made, the robot will routinely clean the supermarket and even charge on its own.

Even if it gets broken midway, with a 2-year guarantee she could exchange it.

Most importantly the robot could repair minor wiring problems on its own.

What an amazing robot!

But when she saw the price, Su Jiyai’s heart started to bleed.

1 million points!

Though her bank account balance was rising, Su Jiyai suspected that it could hardly keep up with her expenses.

With gritted teeth, Su Jiyai bought the robot.

Progress bar increased from 2% to 5%.

[Congratulations for fulfilling the 3rd condition.]

Su Jiyai sighed.

Now she understood why even after cleaning for so long, the progress bar only rose by 2%

Every condition has its weight.

The 3rd condition was worth only 5%

She could only give up for now. Exiting the supermarket, Su Jiyai started to decorate the building and rooms.

By 7 am, Su Jiyai completed all the pending work.

Some of the tenants were awake by now. The locked doors made them feel a bit uncomfortable and they wondered how long they would take the doors to be opened.

At 7:23 am, the doors were unlocked.

Most of the tenants rushed out and started to talk,

“Hey! How strange! This time the locking was much longer than the previous time!”

“Yeah…tell me what was the owner doing, that took him so long to unlock the door.”

“Instead of guessing, why not explore it on our own?”

“I agree.”

Slowly the tenants marched out of their residential building one after another.

What came into their view first was five buildings that were previously built. Now they were decorated and looked much more prime and proper.

Some of the curious ones started to walk toward the building.

However, the next moment they heard the sound of collective gasps.

“Oh my god! A supermarket?”

Turning to the direction where the rest of the crowd was looking, they found a huge supermarket.

It was unlike anything they’d seen before, especially given the apocalyptic conditions they’d been living in.

The building gleamed under the early morning sun, its polished glass windows reflecting the rays as if beckoning them inside.

Curiosity piqued, and the tenants slowly made their way toward the entrance.

The automatic doors slid open with a soft whoosh, revealing rows upon rows of neatly organized shelves stocked with products.

“Look at that!” someone exclaimed, pointing toward a shelf filled with colorful canned goods.

Others soon followed, exploring the aisles in awe.

There were canned fruits, and even snacks—things they hadn’t seen in a long time.

The quality of the products looked surprisingly high, considering the dire state of the world outside.

A woman picked up a box of water purification kits and turned it over in her hands.

“These are… affordable!” she said in disbelief, glancing at the price tag. “How is this possible?”

A middle-aged man wandered over to the tools section, inspecting a tool.

“I have never seen such a sharp tool for such a low price.”

Someone else discovered a section dedicated to hygiene products—soap, toothpaste, and even hand sanitizer.

“Everything is here,” they whispered. “This place has everything.”

As the crowd moved through the supermarket, their amazement grew.

Not only were the products good, but the prices were far lower than they had expected, especially for a place of this size and quality.

“It’s like a miracle,” a man said as he loaded his basket with canned beans and bottled water.

“How did this place even come to be?”

“I don’t care how,” another woman added. “I just hope it stays open.”

Whispers of disbelief and gratitude spread through the crowd.

Some tenants, still cautious, wondered how long the supermarket could maintain such low prices or whether the quality would remain consistent, but for now, they were simply relieved.

Hence all of them started to buy products in high quantity. To their dismay, they could only buy 5 of each product, which saddened them, however, their sadness was short-lived because the next second they observed something…

As long as a shelf turns empty, it will refill on its own.

This assured the insecure audience to some extent.

“I think Boss Su is an angel.” Someone commented.

“Yeah! These supplies have long gone extinct, yet he somehow managed to restock them. It’s like a blessing!” a woman exclaimed, her eyes wide with amazement as she watched a shelf that had just emptied out magically refill itself.

“Who cares how it works,” another man chimed in. “As long as it keeps happening, I’m not asking questions.”

“I haven’t seen anything like this in years,” one man whispered to his companion. “This could be the key to survival.”

Others didn’t comment but all of them agreed.

“I think…Boss Su’s base is the blessing of god and maybe…maybe we will be able to turn around and overcome this apocalypse someday.” One of the men commented. His eyes were slightly red.

The apocalypse was a nightmare for them and they wanted it to be over as soon as possible, however, their current situation told them…if even a single human survived…it could be called good luck.

Unaware of the thoughts of her tenants, Su Jiyai fell asleep. She was too tired and could hardly move her body.

In the afternoon, the system woke her up.

Su Jiyai completed half of her daily quest and had her lunch before getting busy with the base-related work.

Other than the screening done at Yuan Xin’s end, even she starts to screen them.

At 5 pm, Su Jiyai took a break.

[Ding! Congratulations host for earning 100+ luck!]

“Ah?” This sudden pie made Su Jiyai stunned.

“System? How did the luck factor rise so much?”

[Host, Miss Rui feels as if you are the key to the survival of the humans and is praying for you.]

“Is she?” Su Jiyai’s eyes brightened.

She hurriedly thought of the golden ticket she had obtained and said,

“System I want to use my golden ticket.”

A panel appeared in front of her.

The panel shifted and showed a spinning wheel with various items and point amounts.

Su Jiyai checked out the prizes.

SSS-Rank Car, 3x points, 10x points, a downward thumb, SSS-Rank Van, SSS-rank dragger, D-Rank Car, a downward thumb, Supreme Medical Kit, Mystery Box, a downward thumb, 100x points, 3 more chances to draw.

Suddenly Su Jiyai clasped her hand and muttered,

“Please! Please land on 3 more chances to draw!”

After praying for 3 minutes, Su Jiyai asked,

“System does my luck point still exceeds 100?”

She wanted to ensure that in those 3 minutes, her luck score didn’t drop.

[Yes host.]

“Good. Then spin the wheel.”

[Host you have to press the start button.]

“Oh right! I am sorry! I was too excited.” Su Jiyai muttered.

Su Jiyai took a deep breath, her fingers trembling as she reached out to press the start button on the spinning wheel.

The wheel lit up, and a soft chime played as it began to spin rapidly, its colors blurring together as the different prizes zipped past.

She held her breath, eyes glued to the panel.

Round and round the wheel went, the pointer bouncing slightly with each passing section.

Su Jiyai squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, her heart pounding in her chest. She peeked through her fingers just as the wheel began to slow down.

Closer… closer…

It inched past the SSS-Rank Car, slid by the downward thumb, and hovered for a moment over the Supreme Medical Kit.

“No, no!” she whispered, urging it to go further.

The wheel crawled a little more and finally landed on…

“3 more chances to draw!”

Su Jiyai jumped up from her seat, her joy overflowing. “Yes! I did it! System, I actually did it!”

[Congratulations, host. You now have 3 additional chances to draw from the wheel.]

Su Jiyai’s mind raced.

Three more chances meant she could land something even better. With her luck factor still high, she felt a surge of confidence.

“Let’s not waste any time! Spin it again!” she said, practically bouncing with excitement.

The wheel spun once more, the colors blurring in a dizzying whirl.

This time, Su Jiyai watched the wheel closely, her heart racing faster than ever. The wheel began to slow, passing by 10x points, then the SSS-Rank Dragger.

“Come on, something good!” she whispered fervently.

The pointer slowed down, finally landing on the Mystery Box.

Su Jiyai blinked in surprise.

[Congratulations, host. You have won the Mystery Box. Would you like to open it now?]

Her excitement soared. The Mystery Box could contain anything—it was a wildcard, and the possibilities were endless.

“Yes! Open it!” she responded eagerly.
