Apocalypse Shelter System

Chapter 161: Your Goddess, My Dog



Shen Han drove the armored vehicle gradually deeper until it finally stopped in front of a relatively large hill. As soon as the vehicle stopped, two fully armed mutant soldiers briskly approached, keeping a vigilant eye on everyone.

Shen Han got out of the vehicle and respectfully greeted the two, "We have completed the task assigned by Guangbei and rescued several surviving mutants. Now we seek an audience with Guangbei."

The two mutants, with straight postures and muscular bodies indicating a background in special forces, nodded in response. One of them took out a walkie-talkie and said a few words into it. After receiving a reply, he walked to a discreet metal door beside the hill and entered a series of numerical codes.

A heavy sound of the opening door echoed, and the massive iron door at the foot of the hill slowly swung open. Shen Han signaled Alex and the others to get out of the vehicle. Following Shen Han and the mutant soldier, they entered the mountain.

Upon entering, several soldiers with rifles approached, holding detectors in their hands. They instructed Shen Han, Alex, and the others, "Take out all your weapons and metal devices. No weapons are allowed inside!"

Shen Han nodded at Alex, then took out her own weapon and placed it in a nearby metal basket. She then walked proudly towards the scanning gate.

No sound was heard.

They were cleared to proceed.

At this moment, Alex had nothing on him except a space package. Apart from a Vacheron Constantin watch, he didn't carry any other metal objects. His Sinful Blade and firearm ammunition were all stored in the space package.

Alex took off his watch and casually tossed it to a guard, saying, "A genuine Vacheron Constantin watch, a limited edition. It used to cost over a dozen grand, but I'm giving it to you guys."

After saying that, he walked towards the inspection gate without waiting for a response. No sound.

They were allowed to pass.

Following Alex's lead, everyone else also took off their equipment before entering the underground base hidden within the mountain.

This was a massive base concealed within the mountain. Inside, the lights were bright, and people were bustling around. Alex observed that all the passersby were dressed formally, either in military uniforms or suits. They all exuded an extraordinary temperament, indicating that these people were once in positions of power.

Shen Han led Alex and the others straight to a hall, leaving the rest waiting in the lounge outside. Shen Han alone took Alex into the hall.

The hall was brightly lit, with a noisy atmosphere. Dozens of people were busy handling various matters. They came and went, extremely busy.

Each person's desk had a computer, and on the front wall, there was a row of large screens showing footage from the outside surveillance cameras.

Alex roughly counted; there were nearly a hundred cameras, covering almost the entire base. "Han, you're back! How was the mission this time? Smooth?" A tall and handsome guy in a smart suit walked up, smiling as he greeted Shen Han warmly. His words were full of concern.

Shen Han smiled lightly, "Lu Qi! Where's Guangbei and my dad?"

"Oh, Guangbei and the other leaders are having a meeting." Lu Qi's attitude towards Shen Han was very warm. However, when he noticed Alex following Shen Han, he frowned and asked, not so kindly, "Who is this person? Why have I never seen him before?"

Shen Han smiled lightly and introduced to Lu Qi, "This is the survivor leader we encountered in the recent mission, an esper. We faced a large number of zombies during the mission, and it's thanks to their assistance that we managed to survive."

"Oh?" Lu Qi scrutinized Alex up and down, finding nothing special about him. He couldn't help but speak with a hint of arrogance and disdain, "I don't see anything mutant about this person. Looks more like a college student. Hmph, what? Another one coming to join our base?"

"Yes, they have over a dozen mutant soldiers. Although they lack formal training, their combat abilities are quite impressive. They want to join us," Shen Han said with a smile.

Lu Qi snorted and looked at Alex with disdain. "Since they're over a dozen mutants, their combat power is indeed not bad. However, we can't afford to support idle people now. In my opinion, these people are better suited to be assigned to the resource collection team, letting them gather resources outside."

Without waiting for Shen Han's response, Lu Qi, showing contempt, cast a glance at Alex, waved to Shen Han, and said, "Xiao Han, I have something urgent to attend to. I'll find you later when I'm free."

After taking a few steps, Lu Qi didn't forget to turn back and warn Alex with a glare, "Kid, if you want to stay here, behave yourself and stay away from Xiao Han! Otherwise, you'll regret it!"n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After Lu Qi left, Shen Han hurriedly whispered to Alex, "This person is named Lu Qi, the son of our second-in-command here. He currently holds the position of personnel director. Except for the squad directly under Captain Gu, he manages the personnel arrangements for most people here."

Alex glanced back at the arrogant departure of Lu Qi, a cold smile forming in his mind.

It was evident that Lu Qi was pursuing Shen Han. However, it was quite embarrassing for him because Shen Han had long been exhausted by Alex's exploits and was already completely dominated.

"Your goddess, here with me, is nothing more than a dog," Alex said with a slight upward curve of his lips, watching Lu Qi's retreating figure. "Find an opportunity, and eliminate this

person."

"Master, let's take a break in the reception room first. I'll make tea for you," Shen Han said, leading Alex into a spacious reception room next to the hall.

The reception room was equipped with a complete set of sofas and coffee tables. A tea set was neatly arranged on the table. The room was meticulously clean.

Alex found a seat, and as Shen Han poured tea, he took a sip, observing the layout of the room.

This was a large underground base. It was evident that many facilities were established before the apocalypse, such as the surveillance systems and offices.
