Surviving the Apocalypse with my Multiplier System novel Chapter 169

A few days later, at Damien’s base.

"Boss! I found a woman who fits your description!" said Cal as he sat down at Dillon’s table.

Dillon looked up and checked out the young woman who stood beside Cal. She had very soft features and crystal-clear eyes that made her look like a lost doe.

"Good, she will work," Dillon replied before turning to the woman. "What’s your name?"

The woman bowed respectfully. "Hello, my name is Katrina. I’m a level 3 leader from Leader Mai’s team."

Dillon nodded; a level 3 leader meant that she had been part of the organization before the world went to hell.

Dillon motioned for her to sit down so they could discuss the specifics of the upcoming mission.

"So you just need me to go in, get on their good side, and convince them to look for their son?" Katrina asked once more to make sure she understood the scope of her job correctly.

"Yes. You’ll go with Cal and pose as siblings/friends/whatever you want," said Dillon. All that mattered to him was that they find where Julian was hiding.

They went over the plan once more and got up to attend to their business. Before everyone left, Dillon turned to Cal and Katrina. "Don’t rush things. Make sure they’re fully on your side."

"Yes, Boss!" Cal called out, while Katrina bowed her head respectfully.

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the government base...

"Leader Ace, how much longer do you think we’ll have to wait in this line? We must’ve been here for at least half a day already," complained one of the men in Ace’s car.

"How the hell am I supposed to know?" Ace snapped. He had been waiting in a long line for hours today, and there was still a long line of cars in front of them. At this rate, they’d be lucky to make it in today.

One of the other men sighed, "Why can’t we just drive in. If anyone gives us trouble, we’ll just shoot them". _{freёwebnoѵel.com}

Ace placed his hand on his forehead, I’m with a bunch of morons.

"The mission is to blend in, not start a war, genius," he sighed, regretting his earlier decision to bring these guys with him.

They waited in line for another three hours before they made it to the first checkpoint.

"Listen up morons, I’m going to need to all to pretend to be mute. I’m the only one who’s going to do the talking", Ace said. He did not trust that they would not say something absolutely off the wall, resulting them a denied entry.

The others in the car all bobbed their heads, not saying a word. The car pulled up and a guard walked over to their car.

"What brings you here", he asked without much emotion.

Ace took a deep breath and managed to squeeze a few tears out, "Oh sir! You wouldn’t believe it! My brothers and I are on a run! Bandits took over our home, killing and pillaging! Even my poor grandmother wasn’t spared and got taken as the bandit leaders woman!".

He dramatically swept his hand across his face, acting as though he had just experienced the worst situation imaginable.

The guard sensed that Ace was a little off and glanced at the rest of the men in the car.
