Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 160

The next morning, everyone woke up early to prepare to move their things over. Julian instructed that only the most important and personal items should be moved. He also ordered everyone to place their bins of important items in the communal dining room for "transport" purposes.

In reality, Rayne simply stored everyone’s bins, marking which bin belonged to whom on her system panel. _{freeweɓnovel.cøm}

Julian made plans for everyone to move to the base in waves to avoid attracting too much attention.

Rayne filled backpacks with food supplies so that everyone would have enough to pay the registration fees.

After Rayne finished her tasks of storing everything, the bunker was left completely empty.

Everyone was told to wait on the upper level by the exit so they wouldn’t discover that everything, including the stove and refrigerator, was missing.

Noah broke everyone up into smaller teams and sent the first group to the government base. The first few teams were made up of Alpha Team members who traveled via the bunker’s jeeps.

Julian told Noah and Ian to include Jonah on their team and that they should take the RV to the base. The RV would attract a lot of attention, so Julian felt it was best to let Ian and Noah handle it.

Lastly, Rayne and Julian would arrive together. Since they were already registered residents, they wouldn’t have to wait in the registration lines like the rest of the team.

They spaced the teams a few hours apart so Noah and Ian’s team would only arrive in the evening. Rayne and Julian waited in the bunker until everyone was gone before they set off themselves.

Rayne pulled out two more snowmobiles to make it easier for them to get out of the forest and onto the highway.

Thankfully, the snowfall lightened up considerably, keeping it at knee height. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to drive to the government base.

When they reached the spot where Julian had parked the RV, Rayne stored the snowmobiles and took out her SUV. Since they had been seen driving this vehicle, it would have been strange if they came back in a different one.

Rayne’s SUV handled the snow much better than the RV, so driving to the base was a lot easier for them. As they approached, they spotted Noah and Ian in the luxury RV, waiting in the long line to enter the base.

Rayne drove past the line and to the entrance for registered residents. The checkpoint guard asked to see their resident cards and allowed them to enter once their identities were verified.

As they drove to the parking lot closest to their building, Rayne noticed that many of the tents were gone.

"I hope they moved somewhere..." she mumbled. The other option was that these people had died, which seemed more likely.

Julian didn’t reply and continued to drive quietly, silently giving her his opinion.

"I hope Ella and her family are okay," Rayne said. She wasn’t sure how they had handled the cold snap and was worried they hadn’t had enough time to prepare.
