Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 76

"We’ve got everything from sushi to fast food. There’s steak... oh! The fried chicken from earlier! As well as various soups, salads, and sandwiches. Pretty much anything you can think of," she said happily as she scrolled.

Julian watched her tap and move her fingers in the air. "Are you clicking on something?" he couldn’t help but ask.

"Hmm? Oh right, you can’t see it. Yeah, it’s basically like a holographic screen filled with icons of all the things I’ve stored," replied Rayne.

"Damn, that’s so cool," muttered Julian as he watched her finger move up and down. "Umm, how about that burger you had? It smelled so good."

"Sure thing! Coming right up!" she replied cheerfully, clicking on the icon of the burger meal.

A moment later, a paper bag with fries and a burger appeared in her hands, the smell wafting from inside the bag.

"Wow, this is incredible!" he exclaimed, accepting the paper bag. He took out the burger, feeling the warmth through the wrapper. Even the fries were still perfectly crispy!

Rayne watched him happily. "It took me several trips to the fast food restaurant to get those perfectly crispy fries!"

"You know? This place used to be my guilty pleasure. I would sometimes sneak away from Noah’s gaze and treat myself to a burger just like this one," he said, sharing one of his own secrets.

"Haha, well now you can have it whenever you want!" giggled Rayne. "Oh, and I promise not to tell Noah either!"

Julian ate the burger while Rayne continued to scroll through her system, giving him an idea of the types of items she had stored over the past year.

As she scrolled through her miscellaneous folder, she came across the small black box that she took from Dillon the night she met him in the club. She tried opening it, but it wouldn’t budge, so she gave up and forgot about it.

"Hmm, I still don’t know what this is," she said, looking at the icon of the small box.

Julian ate a few more fries, then turned to look at her. "What is it? Maybe I can help."

Rayne took out a copy of the box and showed it to Julian. "I’ve tried opening it a while back, but the lock seems special. The material of the box is also unique. I was unable to break it."

Julian took the small box from her hands and inspected it closely. It reminded him of something he had seen before, but he couldn’t remember what.

"I feel like I’ve seen something similar a long time ago. Once we get back to the bunker, I’ll tinker with it to see if I can get it open," he said, handing the box back to Rayne.

She threw it away via the system trash bin and opened up the folder with the men’s shirts. She had cut open Julian’s shirt earlier and wanted to find him a new one. freёwebnovel.com

"Pick a color," she said playfully.

"A color for what?" asked Julian, noticing her playful smile.

"It’s a surprise. Just pick a color!" she said again.

Julian looked at her curiously. "Hmmm, I pick purple!"

Rayne giggled at his choice. "Okay, one minute!" She scrolled through the thousands of men’s shirt options, pulling out a short-sleeve purple t-shirt with an image of a cat on it.
