Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 251

Once they got home Rayne walked over to Julian's side and looked up at him.

"This is good news, right? Once we get rid of him we can finally live with a focus on growing our settlement and finding more people", she said.

Julian turned to face her and gently stroked her hair.

"Yes, as soon as Damien is out of the picture we can focus on rebuilding, surviving, and thriving".

He wanted nothing more than to spend his days with her, to start a family together, and enjoy life. But in order for them to do that he needed to get rid of Damien before he turned the world into even more chaos with his drug.

Rayne smiled and nodded, "Then let's focus all of our efforts on dealing with Damien."

In the city.

A large group of men gathered in the parking garage and got into the cars.

"Our mission is to secure resources, mainly water. Every person we run into must submit, or else we have orders to kill them", shouted the group leader.

"Yes, sir!", the other's replied.

They quickly drove out, splitting into different directions.

One of the groups quickly found a small shanty settlement on the edge of town.

The leader of this group was a big man with a large scar across his chest. He walked around wearing a white tank top and cargo shorts.

"Well hello there", he said kicking the door of a small building open.

Inside was a group of people, huddled together behind a few boxes. When they heard the cars pull up they quickly made the decision to hide because they'd been robbed by bandits before. _{freewebnσvel.cѳm}

The group leader walked inside with a big grin.

"Come out, I know you're in here. It's rude not to greet your guest!"

We went over to the small table and sat on the wooden chair, placing his feet up on the table. His sharp senses knew exactly where they were hiding.

"I'll count to three. If you don't come out by the time I get to three, don't blame me for being rude"

The people hiding behind the boxes all looked at each other with worry, trying to figure out what to do.

"One"

The oldest in the group was an elderly man in his early 70's. He looked at the frightened expressions of everyone else who looked over at him. As the eldest in the group, they've looked up to him when making important decisions.

"Two"

The elderly man peeked through the boxes at the leader. He could tell just by the man's cocky appearance that he wasn't here for a friendly visit. If they didn't show themselves, then something really bad could happen.

"Thre--"

The elderly man stood up.

"Hello, sir. How may we help you?"

"Ah, so you finally decided to show yourselves", the leader laughed.

The elderly man watched him nervously without moving from his spot. He wanted to know why this man came barging in.

Seeing the silent elderly man, the leader started laughing!
