gave a small nod, accepting his agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright then, we can now sign the contract.” With that Su Jiyai took out a contract and asked Ge Chunli to sign it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ge Chunli signed and Su Jiyai signed the contract too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once everything was done, Su Jiyai asked Ge Chunli to arrange an empty room for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the room, Su Jiyai opened the expansion map.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clicked on the start button and heard the system’s voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Do you want to open China’s map?] “Yes.” [Loading the map….loading completed.] Su Jiyai saw the detailed map of China spread out before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was divided into regions, each highlighting the varying levels of zombie infestations, base territories, and resource zones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rover Base was a small dot amidst the expanse, located in a relatively isolated area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She focused on the area surrounding Rover Base and initiated the expansion protocol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Do you want to proceed with building the wall around Rover Base?] “Yes.” [Please select the expansion perimeter.] Su Jiyai zoomed in, carefully outlining the land she wanted to claim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Perimeter set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Construction will begin in 24 hours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Estimated completion time: 72 hours.] [Ding!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zombies were found in the perimeter, initiating defense measures…] [Host would you like to build a 360-degree protection barrier around the Rover Base?] Su Jiyai agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[It will cost 100 million points.] Su Jiyai: “…” I knew it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This system just loves to gobble up my points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host would you still like to proceed?] “Proceed.” Su Jiyai gritted her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Alright, host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 360-degree protective barrier is getting installed…] [Error!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Error!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two many zombies found!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Humans detected in the perimeter!] [Defense mechanism failed…] [Failed to install 360-degree protective barrier…] Su Jiyai held her forehead and hurriedly called Ge Chunli, “Go and ask your citizens to withdraw from the defense wall.” “Huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But…what if the zombies rush in?” “Just do as I say.” Su Jiyai said sternly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ge Chunli was momentarily stunned by Su Jiyai’s firm tone but quickly complied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll take care of it right away,” he said, his voice tinged with urgency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hurried out of the room, leaving Su Jiyai alone with the system’s persistent warnings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Host, perimeter compromise detected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The construction process will be delayed unless all intruders, human and zombie, are cleared from the area.] Su Jiyai frowned, knowing that time was of the essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the zombies breached the base before the 360-degree protective barrier was installed, it could jeopardize everything she had planned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t allow Rover Base to fall into chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How much time will it take to install the 360-degree protective barrier?” Su Jiyai asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[30 seconds host.] “System is there a psychic wall, which can obstruct the zombies from entering the Rover Base for 1 minute?” [There is host.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It cost 50 million points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would you like to buy?] “Buy!” Su Jiyai gritted her teeth, “The moment all the citizens retreat, activate it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also install the 360 degree protective barrier too.” [Okay host.] Ge Chunli rushed through the base, weaving between hurried figures, calling out commands to the various squads stationed near the third defense wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was strained, though he maintained a façade of calm authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everyone, retreat immediately!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fall back to the inner gates!” Ge Chunli’s voice rang out, clear and firm despite the chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The citizens and defenders at the third defense wall, however, hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The psychic users had erected shimmering shields, their brows furrowed in concentration as they repelled waves of zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Artillery users were fiercely manning cannons and machine guns, the thunderous sounds of gunfire filling the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further along, the wall, fire, thunder, and strength-type superhumans unleashed their abilities, while plant-type users summoned tendrils and vines to entangle the undead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Ge Chunli’s order, a few of them turned their heads in confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you mean retreat?” a thunder user demanded, lightning crackling in his hands as he threw bolts at the oncoming zombies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes narrowed with suspicion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we leave now, the zombies will breach the wall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We can’t hold them off if we retreat.” Similar doubts were echoed by others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fire-type superhuman, her hands wreathed in flames, shouted, “Do you want us to just let the zombies rush in?” Ge Chunli’s chest tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn’t sure how Boss Su planned to protect the base, but his confidence in her was unwavering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t let the defenders see his uncertainty, not now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Listen to me!” he yelled, raising his voice above the chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know it doesn’t make sense, but this is an order from Boss Su.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She has a plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You need to trust her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you stay, you’ll only get in the way.” There was a moment of hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What if the zombies break through?” a stubborn artilleryman asked, clutching his rifle tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What then?” Ge Chunli’s expression hardened, and though his heart raced, his voice was steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We have defenses in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trust me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The base will not fall.” The citizens grumbled, reluctant but swayed by his reassuring words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, the defenders began to pull back, though the tension remained thick in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The psychic users lowered their shields, the artillerymen ceased fire, and the element users withdrew their abilities, retreating toward the gates of the base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They moved swiftly but with clear reluctance, eyes lingering on the approaching horde of zombies, gnashing and screeching as they closed the gap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the last of the defenders crossed into the gates, Ge Chunli signaled the all-clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, a strange force seemed to ripple through the air, causing a shudder to run through the very ground beneath their feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, all of the zombies, which had been advancing with terrifying speed, were halted in their tracks, forced back by an invisible force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stumbled, falling into disarray, held at bay a full 100 meters from the base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gasps of disbelief rippled through the crowd of citizens, who turned toward the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What… what just happened?” one of the psychic users whispered, his eyes wide with shock.\u003C\u002Fp>",1014,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.983Z",1,"novelbin.me","9d9bd3fc4f7fd0e63f4d33b0e213c6cb41be6c025af06c6349716a83bbb2ca84","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-330","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-328",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
