deductions so it could manipulate the truth, filling in gaps with convenient half-truths and omissions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wasn’t about to fall for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re testing me,” she said with a wry smile, her brown eyes narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You want to see what I’ve figured out, so you can adjust your story accordingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But I’ll play along—only because I’ve already pieced together more than you realize.” The system was silent, but Su Jiyai could feel its unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me start with this,” she began, her voice steady and measured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve been trying to suppress my intelligence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not directly, but subtly, over time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every time I’ve asked difficult questions, you’ve either diverted the topic or given me answers that were vague at best.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’ve been guiding my thoughts, trying to keep me from asking the right questions or digging too deeply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because you’re afraid of what I might uncover.” The system didn’t respond immediately, and Su Jiyai took that as confirmation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She continued, her tone sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve also been thinking about this so-called zombie apocalypse we’re facing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s not natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first, I thought it was man-made—some kind of biological experiment gone wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now I’m not so sure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s something else at play here, something far beyond human control.” Her fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest as she continued to speak, her thoughts flowing more freely now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s start with the first outbreak,” she said, her voice taking on a more analytical tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The zombies behaved too…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>purposefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn’t just attack anyone—they went after specific targets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Doctors, scientists—people who could have helped us understand the virus, maybe even stop it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then they destroyed the libraries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why would mindless creatures care about books?” She paused, letting the weight of her words sink in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It wasn’t random,” she said firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It was deliberate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoever—or whatever—caused this wanted to cripple us, to destroy our knowledge, to prevent us from finding a way to fight back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it didn’t stop there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The zombies targeted specific industries—air conditioning, fans, things that seem unimportant at first glance, but were crucial to human comfort and survival in the long term.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, some of the zombies have even evolved to destroy communication towers and disrupt satellite signals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t a coincidence.” Su Jiyai leaned forward, her eyes gleaming with a dangerous light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone—or something—is controlling these zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re not acting on their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s an intelligence behind them, guiding their actions, but it’s limited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can only exert control over certain groups of zombies, and only for a limited time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it’s enough to cause chaos and destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s enough to push humanity to the brink.” The system remained silent, but Su Jiyai knew it was listening intently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, here’s the real question,” she continued, her voice dropping to a near whisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why haven’t you—this so-called system—been destroyed by whoever is controlling the zombies?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re clearly a powerful entity, existing in this world, guiding me, giving me tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But you’re not omnipotent, are you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are forces out there stronger than you, and they’ve allowed you to exist because you serve some purpose to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or maybe you’re just not important enough to be a threat—yet.” There was a long pause before the system finally responded, its voice quieter than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, I…] But Su Jiyai wasn’t finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And then there’s my inheritance,” she said, her voice turning colder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My parents left me in charge of this massive land, this residential area that somehow survived the initial chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It doesn’t make sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did they know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did they manage to secure this place, to ensure that I, of all people, would be its owner?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My parents weren’t ordinary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew something was coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were preparing for it long before the apocalypse started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And you—system—you’ve known all along, haven’t you?” Su Jiyai’s voice rose slightly, her anger simmering just beneath the surface.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The voices I heard in that dimension—the ones that were after me—those weren’t random, were they?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re the ones behind all of this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’re the ones who created the zombies, or at least, they’re controlling them now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They want to destroy this world, and they nearly succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they made a mistake when they let me go.” She leaned back on the sofa, her eyes narrowing as she stared into the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know what those entities are—demons, gods, something else entirely—but they want to see this world burn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And you—you’re caught in the middle of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re trying to guide me, maybe even help me, but you’ve been lying to me from the start.” The system was silent for a long moment, and Su Jiyai knew she had struck a nerve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>you’re not entirely wrong,] the system admitted slowly, its voice laced with reluctance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[But there are things I can’t tell you—things that go beyond my programming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re right about the apocalypse not being natural, but it’s not as simple as just one entity controlling it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>layers to this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yes, your parents knew more than they let on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But even they didn’t have the full picture.] Su Jiyai’s lips curled into a cold smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, I was right.” The system’s voice softened, almost pleading now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Please, Host, give me time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let me explain everything, but not all at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Terminating the contract now would leave you vulnerable, and I don’t want that for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was designed to protect you.] “Protect me?” Su Jiyai scoffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Or control me?” The system didn’t answer immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t f*ck with me system, I maybe be a too kind person, but I f*cking am not a saint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I am not ready to sacrifice for the rest of humanity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You say you want to protect me but at the same time, you aren’t ready to tell me a single thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you think I am dumb?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I almost died because of your so-called protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you continue to protect me, I think I will end up 6 feet under the ground.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1014,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.983Z",1,"novelbin.me","544d0f8c53ad9d754c7b47654c819338331dee6f23958a95bacff561345adbcd","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-181","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-179",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
