Apocalypse: I Have A Multiplier System

No one knows who lives there and who has built that place.

The higher authorities of different lands even tried to force their way in, however, due to some reason they weren't able to enter at all.

Maybe someone indeed lived inside because the moment the authorities tried to enter the square using helicopters, they were instantly attacked.

The strange part was, the moment Su Jiyai saw the square a strange sense of anxiety enveloped her.

Su Jiyai's heart suddenly turned heavy and she felt a strange sense of gloom in her heart.

Clang.

Clang.

Clang.

Su Jiyai's heart started to beat fast.

She turned around in horror when she heard the sound.

Did a zombie make it to the rooftop?

Su Jiyai clutched her bag and gritted her teeth.

With the heavy bag, she won't be able to run for long.

Su Jiyai hurriedly took out all the clothes and threw them away.

She looked at 200 federal coins, which she had saved with difficulty and the two boxes given by her parents. 

Her gaze then shifted to the blueberry pie color gem given by Qin Feng. 

It was her birthday gift. Qin Feng said that he thought of her when he found the gem.

However, before she could make the decision about it, a rotting smell wafted up to her. She froze for a moment, realizing the danger was even closer than she thought.

A single level 3 zombie had managed to climb up the fire escape and was now on the rooftop with her.

Su Jiayi quickly stuffed the federal coins and gems into her pockets and grabbed the two boxes, clutching them tightly.

She knew she couldn't afford to lose what little she had left. Her heart pounded in her chest as she tried to come up with a plan.

The zombie lunged at her, and Su Jiayi dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding its grasp.

She swung her backpack at it, using it as a makeshift weapon to keep the creature at bay.

The zombie stumbled but quickly regained its footing, advancing on her again.

Desperate, Su Jiayi glanced around the rooftop for anything she could use.

She spotted a metal pipe lying on the ground, likely left behind by some previous inhabitants.

She dashed towards it, grabbing it just as the zombie lunged again.

With all her strength, she swung the pipe, connecting with the zombie's head.

It staggered but didn't go down. She swung again, and again until the zombie finally collapsed, its skull caved in.

A shiny crystal-like thing popped out of the zombie's head.

"Zombie crystal?" Su Jiyai muttered.

She has heard zombie crystals are extremely rare things and are used to enhance superpowers.

Though Su Jiyai knew that she didn't have superpowers she still put away the crystal. 

What if...what if by keeping the zombie crystals, she awakens a superpower?

Su Jiyai knew that she was foolish, however, she couldn't let go of the last hope.

If only she could awaken a superpower!

However Su Jiyai knew that like Han Weilin, she didn't get a chance to train her body for 2 years, so it was very unlikely that she would be able to awaken a superpower...

Su Jiyai looked back and walked toward the edge of the rooftop.

She was thinking of trying her luck and going to the square.

Suddenly she heard a slight glitching sound,

"Zzzzz H-zzzz Zzezz"

"Huh?" Su Jiyai's heart skipped a beat.

She hurriedly took back a step and the sound stopped.

What was that sound?

She took a deep breath and approached the edge of the rooftop again, trying to pinpoint the source of the strange sound.

However this time the sound didn't come.

"Am I hallucinating?" Su Jiyai muttered.

Su Jiyai shook her head and went near her bag. She ate some dry biscuits and took out a small handbag, stuffed the two boxes in it, and secured it around her waist.

Clang.

Clang.

Su Jiyai's eyes widened.

More zombies?

And just from the dangerous aura, Su Jiyai was sure that the zombie wasn't a ordinary zombie.

Su Jiyai started to think of a way to exit the rooftop.

Looking around, she spotted another building nearby, close enough that she might be able to jump across. It was a risky move, but it seemed like her best option.

She took a deep breath and leaped.

Her heart pounded as she flew through the air, but she managed to land safely on the other side, rolling to absorb the impact.

She quickly got to her feet, glancing back to see the rooftop she had just left swarming with zombies.

Breathing heavily, she moved quickly across the new rooftop, looking for a way down.

She found another fire escape and began her descent, pausing every few steps to listen for any signs of danger.

The streets below were eerily quiet, but she knew she couldn't stay exposed for long.

Once she reached the ground, she ducked into an alleyway, trying to stay out of sight. Her mind raced as she considered her next move.

The square was still her best option, despite the dangers. 

She made her way through the maze of alleys and side streets, avoiding the main roads where zombies were more likely to be.

However, she still encounters zombies and to Su Jiyai's dismay, they are all level 3 zombies.

Su Jiyai could only fight.

Her physical energy was long drained. The reason why she was still able to fight was because of her willpower.

Soon Su Jiyai reached close to the square.

When she turned around, Su Jiyai's soul almost left her body.

From where do these Level 4 zombies chase her?

Su Jiyai never thought that her luck could be so bad!

She could hardly deal with a single level 3 zombie on her own, how was she going to deal with those level 4 zombies?

Su Jiyai looked in front and realized that she had reached the square.

What to do now?

How to enter it?

Su Jiyai was extremely worried.

Suddenly Su Jiyai heard the same buzzing sound,

"Bzzzzzz. "

Su Jiyai covered her ears due to how irritating the sound was.

By now the Level 4 zombies had caught up with Su Jiyai. One of them lunged at Su Jiyai.

Su Jiyai tried to dodge but she wasn't as fast as the Zombie.

The very next second a deep gash opened up on Su Jiyai's arm as the zombie's claws raked across her skin.

Pain shot through her, and Su Jiyai almost screamed.

Su Jiyai moved backwards.

Her energy was long drained and after getting injured, Su Jiyai couldn't even walk properly.

The Level 4 Zombie as if taking pleasure in Su Jiyai's pain smiled creepily. Su Jiyai bit her lips.

"Bzzz Bzzz...h...bzz. Ho-st....p-pu-t act-acti-vat-ion ge-m." A mechanical voice sounded in Su Jiyai's ears.

Even though the voice was not stable, Su Jiyai understood the words for some reason.

It was asking her to put some activation gem...where and what activation gem?

"What do you mean?" Su Jiyai asked as she looked around.

Was someone playing a prank on her?

"Ge-em i-n h-bzzz-ost's po-cket. G-Bzzz-o to l-bzzz-eft."

Her pocket?

Su Jiyai touched her pocket. There was only one gem in her pocket, and it was given to her by Qin Feng.

But why does this strange thing want that gem? And most importantly who was it?

"Who are you?"Su Jiyai asked but before she could receive her answer, level 4 zombies started to attack Su Jiayi.

Su Jiyai moved away and due to the inertia, the zombie crashed into the metallic blue wall.

Bzzz.

The zombie was electrocuted and died on the spot.

Seeing this the other zombies became crazy and started to attack Su Jiyai like crazy.

Having understood the trick, Su Jiyai moved close to the metallic blue wall, not too close that she would be electrocuted, just close enough so that whenever the zombies lunged at her she would dodge.

At the same time, she fumbled in her pocket and retrieved the blueberry pie-colored gem that Qin Feng had given her.

Holding it tightly, she looked around, searching for any clue on how to activate it.

The mechanical voice buzzed again, clearer this time, "G-Bzzz-o to l-bzzz-eft."

Left? What did it mean? Su Jiyai glanced around frantically, trying to decipher the message amidst the chaos of the zombie attack.

Her instincts told her to trust the voice, though it sounded robotic and unfamiliar.

Without hesitating further, she turned to her left and saw a peculiar indentation on the wall, a slot, perhaps meant for inserting something.

Could this be where the activation gem was supposed to go?
