the conversation…] Xi Ping was scared by the sudden sound in her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She jumped back and took a defensive pose, looking around with a narrowed gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She tried to find where the sound was originating yet she found nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Hello…I am Boss Su’s assistant, and I am trying to communicate with you through electrical signals.] Xi Ping was at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who is Boss Su?” [Boss Su is the leader of the base located 100 km away from your base Crystal Cove.] “So?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Does that give you the right to suddenly send electrical signals to a person who is at a distance of 100 km from you?” Xi Ping asked in a cold voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Miss Xi I don’t mean to offend you.] Xi Ping chuckled, “I can’t sense any goodwill from you.” There was a hint of mockery on her end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her view, every base leader is a leech who leeches off federal coins, resources, and food from their citizen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[I have a deal for you.] “I am not interested.” Xi Ping said and turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system ignored Xi Ping’s words and continued, [I can tell you the description of your fourth superpower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you don’t listen to my explanation, you will never be able to use the 4th superpower.] “It’s alright.” Xi Ping waved her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have three superpowers and I am happy with that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention I don’t trust strangers.” On finishing her words, Xi Ping walked toward the Crystal Cove.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She expected the voice to continue, but the voice went completely silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if the sound never existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Ping cleared up her throat and said, “If you can give me some deposit, I can consider the offer.” The system agreed instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Sure.] The next second a bag suddenly dropped at her feet, a soft thud breaking the eerie silence of the clearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She eyed it warily, her instincts on high alert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cautiously, she knelt and opened the bag, peering inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her breath caught in her throat when she saw the ten neatly stacked cup noodles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each cup was brightly colored, promising warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Ping’s heart raced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no ordinary gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an apocalypse where food was a currency more precious than gold, who could afford to just give away ten cup noodles?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Was Boss Su a rich tycoon?” she murmured to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had always associated base leaders with greed and exploitation, but this was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The temptation of a hearty meal was too great to ignore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What does she want from me?” As if summoned by her thoughts, the voice returned, its tone more insistent than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Miss Xi, if you’re interested in the noodles, I urge you to listen to what I have to offer.] “Fine, I’m listening,” she relented, sitting back on her heels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A contract materialized in the air before her, shimmering faintly with an ethereal glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Ping squinted at it, half-expecting it to vanish, but it held steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The voice continued, [Please read the contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It details what you would be required to do for Boss Su.] She reached out hesitantly, her fingers brushing the surface of the contract.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt cool and smooth, like polished stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she began to read, her brow furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The terms were simple: perform a favor for Boss Su that would not involve killing or committing a crime, and in return, she would receive assistance from Boss Su, tailored to her needs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she scanned through the terms, her heart sank slightly when she noted the stipulation: this contract is cursed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should you attempt to break it, you will be bound by its magic until the task is complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A chill crept down her spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of curse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What would it entail?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t like the sound of that,” she muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then she recalled the ten-cup noodles and the promise of something more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This power, whatever it was, might just be worth the risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she could handle herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had tri-powers—super strength, super speed, and teleportation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mere contract shouldn’t scare her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What guarantees do I have that you’ll honor this agreement?” she asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Boss Su will agree to any conditions you propose, provided they do not contravene the contract’s terms.] Xi Ping raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, let’s see if you’re telling the truth.” She leaned back slightly, thinking through her options.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s consideration, she declared, “I want 500 kilograms of rice and another 500 cup noodles.” The silence that followed felt deafening, and she held her breath, anticipating a rejection or some clever loophole to dismiss her request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But then the voice responded, [That condition is acceptable.] Her eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that?” Doubt flickered in her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this too good to be true?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the contract’s simplicity reassured her that there were no hidden traps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sign now!” the voice urged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not so fast,” she replied defiantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want my payment first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I won’t sign without it.” She crossed her arms, standing firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, the voice hesitated, as if weighing her demand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xi Ping felt a rush of satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had the upper hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And if you don’t agree?” […I will agree,] it said finally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, Xi Ping felt that the voice was in some urgent need of assistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could fully process the response, five enormous bags appeared in front of her, their weighty presence causing the ground to shift slightly underfoot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stared, slack-jawed, unable to find her voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What the hell?” she exclaimed, stepping forward to examine them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each bag was filled to the brim with rice and noodles, more than she had ever dared to hope for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The assistant urged her again, [Please sign the contract!] “Wait, I need a pen,” she said, scrambling for something to write with.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[You don’t need a pen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a few drops of blood will suffice to activate it.] “Blood?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You want me to spill my blood for this?”\u003C\u002Fp>",1014,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.983Z",1,"novelbin.me","e9a231e6a56a36500347ce5506d16900ef39aff609f89c7bde59c1c64712fe42","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-177","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-175",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
