Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 215

The next morning, Lenny and the rest of the new group of people were woken up by a gentle knock on the door.

Due to the time of night, they made it back to base, there wasn’t enough time to set up beds and furniture, so Rayne simply passed out high-quality sleeping bags to everyone.

They were all placed to sleep inside the same empty mobile home and would be assigned new homes today.

Noah and Reginald walked over and introduced themselves as the settlement’s officers, in charge of logistics and everyday operations.

"Good morning. Today, we will be settling you all into your new homes," explained Noah.

Lenny quickly smiled and agreed. He was just happy to be out of that cesspool of infected, man-eating people.

When the group walked outside, they collectively gasped at how breathtaking their new location was.

Since it was late last night and dark, they didn’t get to see much of the surrounding area. Now, they looked at the beautiful lake and surrounding mountains in awe.

Even the air felt fresher here than back at the government base.

Lenny looked at the neat row of mobile homes that stretched the entire length of the forest clearing.

As he looked around, Noah began assigning houses to them and explained the rules and how to access the resources inside each of the warehouses.

Noah also explained the daily task list and what areas of the base needed attention currently. They were all given the whole day to settle in and put together their needed furniture.

Nurse Judy was assigned to live with Anna since she was assigned to help with the medical clinic, while Lenny and the rest were sorted into the empty houses.

The others came out to introduce themselves, offering a helping hand when needed before heading to do their tasks.

Rayne came out and was happy to see that everyone had introduced themselves to the newcomers from last night, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

Noah came over and greeted her, hoping to see Julian.

"How are they settling in? Did you find anything off with anyone from this batch?" asked Rayne.

The reason that Noah always did the introductions was that he was very skilled at reading people. If he felt that someone was suspicious or off, he would quickly report this person to her and Julian.

It was an additional safeguard to keep their settlement safe, so Rayne really trusted his judgment.

"Everything went well, and everyone passed the body language check. We even gained a few more skilled laborers," he reported.

"Great! Thank you for doing this, Noah. If there’s anything you need, please let me know!" smiled Rayne.

She really appreciated him stepping up to take the role of base manager, as it allowed for her and Julian to be free to do other things, knowing the base was in good hands.
