them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were already dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you remember the thugs that attacked you during your previous dimension hunt?] Su Jiyai frowned, the memory slowly coming back to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The thugs… yes, I remember.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one hired by that black market gold dealer?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I fought them, but after the battle, I left them behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t stick around to see what happened next.” [Exactly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After you defeated them, I took their bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I stored them in the system space and kept them there for future use.] A cold shiver ran down Su Jiyai’s spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You stored their bodies?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why?” [Dead bodies can be used as currency in certain… transactions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-ranking pills like the cultivation increment pill require something far more valuable than zombie crystal cores or federal coins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Human bodies, especially those of awakened ones, can be traded for such pills.] “You’re telling me you trade in dead bodies?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And you didn’t think I deserved to know that earlier?” [Host, you weren’t ready for that information at the time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And, as I said, I didn’t kill them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were already enemies who had attacked you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The administration office assigned them to you as part of your mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You dealt with them yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without that pill, the woman I hired would have never been able to open the portal and get you out of that dungeon in time.] Su Jiyai’s eyes narrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And what about the side effects?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surely such types of pills have some side effects right?” The system hesitated briefly before answering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Yes, Host, there are risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pills can grant immense power, but they come with a price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who consume them might face backlash in the future—whether it be instability in their cultivation or a drop in their cultivation.] “Alright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now tell me how to avoid those entities?” Su Jiyai asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, I will ensure your safety-] “No need.” Su Jiyai rolled her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the system’s protection, she might end up dead even before she knows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tell me if they have any weakness?”  Trusting the system with her safety seemed like a gamble she wasn’t willing to take anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“With your protection, I might end up dead before I even realize it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just tell me if they have any weaknesses.” The system hesitated before answering, its usual confidence replaced with something more cautious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, the entities cannot descend into your world to cause direct harm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their power doesn’t work like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They need intermediaries—humans from your world who are willing to carry out their plans.] “So they can’t come here themselves?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can only influence humans to cause trouble?” [Exactly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are bound by certain laws of this universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can manipulate events, plant ideas, and drive individuals to their cause, but they cannot physically manifest in your world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s why they rely on humans to spread chaos.] A chill ran down Su Jiyai’s spine as she processed this new information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are these humans?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who are they working with?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And how many of them are there?” [Host, I don’t know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their identities are hidden from me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people could be anyone—base leaders, criminals, or even normal civilians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All I can tell you is that they are dangerous, and they’re working toward the same goal as the entities: to prolong the chaos.] Su Jiyai let out a long, frustrated sigh, rubbing her temples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, you don’t know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What do you know, then?” [As long as your world continues to overcome the zombie threat, their control will be reduced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every step humanity takes toward surviving and rebuilding weakens its influence.] Su Jiyai’s brows furrowed as she leaned forward, the gears in her mind turning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If that’s true, then why create the zombies in the first place?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why start an apocalypse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why not just wipe us out completely if that’s their endgame?” The system’s response was measured, almost clinically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[They can’t destroy the world outright, Host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are limits even to their power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They need humanity to continue to exist to feed on the chaos and fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Destroying the world entirely would sever their source of energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s a delicate balance—drive the world to the brink of destruction but not over the edge.] “So they’ve allowed things to continue, but just barely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the zombie virus is part of that plan,” Su Jiyai mused, her voice dripping with realization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It weakens society, kills off those capable of stopping the spread, and leaves the rest of us struggling to survive.” [Correct, Host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The virus was designed to bring the world to its knees, to keep humanity in a state of perpetual fear and conflict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they underestimated certain variables.] Su Jiyai raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Like me?” [Exactly.] The system’s voice carried a hint of something like admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So if they’re this smart—smart enough to create a virus that wipes out the people who could find a solution—why haven’t they destroyed you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why haven’t they exterminated the system?” [Host, they would love to see the system wiped out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just like they can’t destroy the world entirely, they can’t destroy everything in it either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The system exists as part of the balance, just as you do.] Su Jiyai’s eyes narrowed again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t they come after me sooner?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or have they been trying to kill me this entire time?” [They didn’t see you as a threat at first, Host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You were just another survivor in a world full of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as you grew stronger, they began to realize that you were more dangerous than they initially thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s when they tried to turn you, to make you one of their own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When that failed, they shifted to a more aggressive approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They want you dead now because they know you could disrupt their plans.] Su Jiyai let out a frustrated sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So they know who I am.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s only a matter of time before they find me, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your efforts to hide me have been for nothing.” [No, Host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’ve seen your body, your power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they don’t know your face.]\u003C\u002Fp>",1020,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.983Z",1,"novelbin.me","4786e31b0007d322804e67bb6cc31f6c4c57b9bec29e056cfe00363ed4ed0018","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-183","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-181",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
