Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System - Chapter 92

Chapter 92: Meeting with the Bigshots
The first person to give their report was a tall woman with bright purple hair. She wore a woman’s suit, which made her give off the feeling that she was either a lawyer, a dominatrix, or somewhere in between.

She bowed politely and quickly introduced herself. “Hello, I’m Mai, leader of Team Summit. Recently, I have taken on many supply and scouting missions. A week ago, I caught wind of the government setting up a base at a newly built mountain resort. I have already sent a team of men over and just recently received confirmation that they have settled into the base and are ready to pass along any needed information.”

The scholarly man nodded, fixing his glasses with his finger. “Very good. I will see you after the meeting with further instructions.”

Mai smiled. “Thank you, sir.”

After she finished, the man continued to go around the room, occasionally writing down bits of information from each team.

The man at the center of the table continued to lay back with his eyes closed while everyone took their turns giving their updates.

Dillon was at the end of the line and was the last to go. When the scholarly man finally looked over at him, signaling him to speak, Dillon stepped forward.

“Hello, I’m Dillon, leader of Team Runner,” he said, bowing politely. “Recently, my team was attacked, which ended with four of my men dead. The only survivor of the team reported that the weapon used produced no sound at all…”

Dillon then reached into his pocket, pulled out the three black bullets, and walked over to the corner of the conference table, placing them on the table.

“These were the bullets that were retrieved from the dead bodies,” he said.

The scholarly man reached out to pick one of the bullets up, noticing its abnormality. “Grant, take a look,” he said as he slid the bullet toward a serious-looking, buff man who was sitting on the other side of the table.

Grant picked up the bullet and inspected it closely. “Hmm, this is very unique indeed. As an expert in firearms, I can confidently state that there is no other bullet in the world like this.”

Dillon noticed that the man who had kept his eyes closed the whole time finally opened them, looking at the bullet on the table.

The scholarly man picked up another bullet and placed it in front of the man at the center of the table, allowing him to get a better look.

Grant looked over at the man in the middle of the table and said, “Boss, I’ll take this bullet apart when I get back. But just looking at it, I can say it smells like REN Corporation.”

The man in the middle didn’t reply, only nodded his head.

The scholarly man turned back to Dillon. “Is there anything else?”

Dillon nodded. “Yes, one more discovery. It looked like someone was inspecting the dead bodies. There were signs of blood being drawn and their clothing was carefully cut off. I will also add that these men were originally part of the experimental team.”

As soon as Dillon finished talking, the man in the middle of the room began to laugh. “Haha! You sneaky rat! I had a feeling you were still alive!”. Dillon wasn’t sure about what he was referring to, but decided not to ask.

The man looked over at Dillon and tapped on the table, giving the scholarly man a subtle message that Dillon had caught his eye.

The scholarly man looked up at Dillon. “Good work, you’ve provided valuable information. I will be contacting you shortly.”

Dillon nodded, maintaining a serious expression, but inside, he was ecstatic. He had successfully managed to make an impression on the big shots, meaning he might get opportunities for promotion in the future.

The room quieted down once more, and the scholarly man stood up again. “New missions will be assigned at the start of next week. Continue recruitment efforts and supply runs in the meantime. Everyone is dismissed.”

All of the small-time leaders bowed in unison and quickly made their way out of the conference room, leaving the big-shot leaders to continue their meeting.

“Grant,” said the man in the middle.

“Yes, boss!” replied Grant respectfully.

“I need you to make researching this bullet a priority. As soon as you confirm that it’s a REN Corporation design, let me know. Julian is still alive, I can feel it” he said, smiling with a bloodthirsty expression.

Grant nodded. “Yes, boss. I’ll get started right away.”

The man then turned to the scholarly man sitting beside him. “Tristan, keep an eye on Mai and Dillon. They have potential for the inner circle.”

Tristan fixed his glasses again. “Yes, boss. I’ll look into their information more when I get back. I need to give a few instructions to Mai first.”

The man laughed and patted Tristan on the back roughly. “Tristan, when will you stop calling me ‘boss’? I’ve told you many times to just call me Damien. You know you’re like a brother to me.”

Tristan rolled his eyes. “I prefer to remain professional, thank you.”

Damien laughed once more. He was long used to Tristan’s overly professional personality.

Dillon stopped by the women’s quarters on his way back to his room. He stood in front of the one-way mirror, peering inside the large room where the recently ‘recruited’ woman stayed. The guard on duty walked over to Dillon, greeting him with a smile.

“Which one is the one brought in today from Team Runner?” asked Dillon, watching one of the women as she changed her clothes.

The guard looked into the room and pointed with his finger. “That one over there. It took a long time for her to calm down, but Penny worked her magic and helped her ease into her new life here.”

Penny was the leader who was in charge of taking care of the newly found women. She was very good in human psychology and was able to sway them into accepting their new roles on the base. Penny was also in charge of making sure these women stayed beautiful, like flowers.

She would provide them with sexy clothing and makeup, dolling them up to help attract the many leaders within the gang.

Dillon looked at the woman closely, inspecting every part of her body. “Not bad, she’s sexy. I’m sure she’ll catch the attention of one of the big shots soon.”

After looking around a bit more, Dillon quickly became aroused from seeing all the attractive women and hurried back to his room, where Krissy was waiting for him.

As he walked back, his horny mind couldn’t help but begin to picture Rayne. After today’s meeting, he felt even more excited because if he proved himself to any of the big shots, they would surely fulfill his request to find Rayne for him.

Once she was found, he would be sure to have his fun with her. He felt his blood rush downward at the thought and quickened his pace back to his room.
