Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 239

When Rayne made her way back over to the warehouse where she left the tarps and covers, she found Julian along with the farmers huddled together, looking at each of the options.

"This one here feels really familiar to the kind of translucent covering I had back at my previous farm", one of the farmers said.

The others agreed, "Yeah, this looks like the standard material they use for greenhouses. The non-glass kind."

Julian thought for a moment, "Why don't we do an experiment? Let's use all of these and see how the seedlings do under each one. We can section the farm up, and then see after a few days. There's plenty of material."

The group of farmers agreed and began carrying the rolls of transparent material over to the farm. Some of the others from the carpentry team came over to assist and build a small frame to support the covering.

They worked for the entire day in the sweltering heat, to finish making the makeshift greenhouse over the fields.

On the other side of the base, there was another problem occurring.

"Dr. Anna! Please help! My wife fainted!", yelled David from outside the house.

He was holding Laura in his arms, carrying her over to the medical room.

His body visibly shook as droplets of sweat rolled down his face. _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

Anna quickly opened the door, letting him inside.

"Quick, lay her on the bed in the medical room. I'll examine her now", she said.

David quickly put her down on the bed and then turned to leave.

"I'm sorry Doctor but I need to get my son. I can't leave him alone", he said, running back home.

By the time he came back, Anna had already made an initial assessment.

"How is she, Doctor? What's wrong with her?", David asked.

He was holding his newborn son in his arms, looking worriedly at his wife.

Anna shook her head by frowned, "She's okay. It's heat stroke and dehydration. I'm going to keep her here for a little while to make sure she gets enough fluids."

Her eyes traveled to the small baby in his arms, "I think it's best that the little one stays here for a while. I don't want him to go through something similar. This heat is very bad."

David shook at the thought of losing his son. He quickly nodded, agreeing to her proposal.

"Thank yo,u Doctor, thank you."

About an hour later Laura finally woke up to the screams of her newborn son. She looked around, confused as to where she was.

"Honey? Where am I?", she asked.
