The Wear Apocalypse Book
08

After spending 6 days in N, Jean and the others pack up to return to J. Jean had no idea what an anti-nuclear fortress the system was so proud of.

"We're going home eventually." Jean looked at the things he was going to bring to the city of J. Jean deliberately left some items to take home, so that others did not suspect where Jean kept the items he had bought so far.

"Linda have you packed all your luggage? Maybe we won't be back anytime soon"

"Of course, miss, I've emptied all my clothes in the closet." Linda answered while dragging her luggage into the car. Abby then came to help pack things into the car.

"It doesn't feel like you're leaving. Forgive my husband for not coming, he's so busy." Said Abby who seemed to be regretting Jean's departure.

"Sister Abby remember to come to town J later, I'll wait for you guys to come." Jean once again tells Abby.

"All right, I'll."

"She's saying hello to Lexie and Finn, too." Mishael

"Then we go, brother. See you soon." Jean bade farewell and then headed home to the city of J. Jean had no idea that his anti-nuclear fortress had become a hot topic in the town of J.

"What is the iron wall? Is our country threatened by war?" A netizen posted a photo where a large house was surrounded by an iron wall that looked very thick.

"Maybe this photo is not real, how could there be someone who would want to surround his house with such a thick iron!" Comments from one netizen.

"This photo is real! I saw it myself! Just come to town J, the address is located at xxx." One of the netizens confirmed the photo and was followed by other netizens who also witnessed the iron wall directly.

"I know the house belongs to the Barker family. I think the owner of the house has gone crazy for surrounding his house with an iron wall LOL. " Taking a look at one of the netizens.

"Or maybe he deliberately made an iron wall so that his house became an icon of the city J? Hahahaha" Other netizens began to speculate.

Jean does not know that her house has become a joke on the internet, although she knows she may ignore the joke.

The car suddenly stops which makes Jean wake up from her sleep. "What's Uncle Randalf? Did we hit a cat?" Ask Jean who is still delirious.

"Miss, are we going the wrong way?" Asked uncle randalf who saw the thick steel walls that looked very conspicuous. Jean then came to his senses and looked startled as he looked at the towering anti-nuclear defensive fortifications.

'What system is this the fortress?'

'Yes sir, sir please take the remote controller inside the storage.' Jean then took out the remote secretly.

"This uncle is our home." Jean replied which left Randalf and the others shocked.

"Why did it go like this?" Merrill asked who felt very strange.

"Just wait at home, I'll explain slowly to all of you." Jean plans not to tell them about the apocalypse and its capabilities, but the wall makes his plans fail. Jean then pressed a button on the remote and made the wall emit a creaking sound that revealed the inside.

Arriving inside Jean's house wants to directly explain the reason behind the long-held strangeness of Merril and Randalf.

"Before I tell you, I want you to promise not to reveal or spread what I'm going to say next." Said Jean who looked seriously.

"Maybe some of you won't believe what I'm about to say or you'll think I'm crazy, but you guys have to be mentally prepared because... " Jean is still not ready to tell them about the apocalypse.

"Because the apocalypse is coming soon. " Next Jean.

"really? Then what will happen? Will the meteor hit the earth or will the sea rise until the land is gone?" Merril's expression looked complex, as did Randalf and the others.

"No, the apocalypse I'm referring to may be related to a laboratory leak." Jean said, shaking her head.

"Is that a zombie?" Ask Liam who is reminded of a film that tells similar things.

"Yes that's right." Said Jean who looked depressed. Liam's face then looked pale.

"Then.. Are we going to be forced to fight and kill zombies?" Ask Liam again.

"Maybe it is or may not, you see for yourself that I have installed a fortress surrounding my house so there is a possibility that we will not have to fight." Liam then felt safe.

"Liam what's a zombie?" Linda had no idea what a zombie was, nor did Randalf, Merril and Misael.

"That's... I know zombies because Mr. Gill's daughter once watched a movie, so I've watched it by accident." Liam then told me about the film he knew. Linda also looked pale after finding out what a zombie was.

"Miss if this happens will humans become extinct?" Merrill asked who looked worried.

"You take it easy, humans themselves will also evolve. Look at my hand." Jean then showed her lightning strength gathered in the palm of the hand.

"Will she be a superhero?" Linda looks shocked when she sees a mini lightning flash that appears in Jean's hand. Liam and Misael looked surprised but then their eyes sparkled as if they were meeting their idol.

"Not really because there will be many humans who will have the same power as me." Jean replied with a smile.

"So can I have similar powers?" Ask Misael who seemed to want strength.

"Unfortunately not all humans have this kind of opportunity, most forces are triggered suddenly and very rarely by desire." Mishael was disappointed.

"But take it easy, I'll try to protect you all so don't worry." Jean continues to make them touched.

"Can't we fly?" Ask Liam who is curious.

"Hey I'm not a bird! So how could I possibly fly." Liam was disappointed, but his eyes shone again.

"Don't look at me like that, Liam, you give me goosebumps." Jean is terrified of Liam's imagination.

"Then is that why Miss asked Mr and Mrs Barker to stay with us?" Ask Merrill

"Yes, I'm not really a saint so I didn't bring all the people to live with us, I just brought people I could really trust. Do you know what is most terrible when the end of the world comes?" They shake their heads.

"The most terrible thing is the man himself. On the day of the apocalypse all the rules that the government makes will no longer apply, you know not what will happen?" They then understood what Jean meant. Linda felt a little uncomfortable when she wanted to bring her parents to live with her here.

It seems that Jean picked up on Linda's agitated emotions, then said "i don't forbid you from bringing your loved ones to shelter in this place as well, but there is one thing I will emphasize. I don't want a white-eyed wolf in my house."

Linda was disappointed for a moment. Her parents are a traditional society that still adheres to the understanding that women have a lower degree than men, although Linda still cannot ignore her parents. Linda seemed to be thinking hard.

"I'll give you a chance to choose with me or you'll find a way to protect your loved ones. I'm not forcing you to stay with me." Jean felt a little upset when she saw Linda's worried expression. If Linda leaves then she will never eat Linda's light snacks again.

"So calm down, I'll stay with Jean's sister." Liam

"Me too! We're both orphans anyway so there's no problem." Mishael continued, Jean knew that Liam and Mishael would definitely stay with her.

"Me and Randalf must have accompanied you, miss, after all since you were born we have promised to take care of you to Mr. And Mrs Barker." Jean was relieved that at least Merril would not leave. Linda felt a little guilty when she heard they chose to stay.

"Linda what about you?" Jean takes the initiative to ask Linda even though she finally knows Linda will choose to leave.

"Sorry Miss Jean. A.. I can't stay with you." Linda is embarrassed.

"It's okay. What's your next plan?" Jean asked carefully, but secretly she felt like she had thrown a hundred kilograms of diamonds into the ocean floor.

"Maybe I'll stay with my parents until that day comes. At least I won't regret it later" Linda resigned herself to her fate.

"If you don't feel like you can survive there then just come here, we'll take you here." Jean said that made Linda's heart feel sour and her eyes fogged up with Jean's kindness.

"All right." Linda replied with a tremble.

"Take care of yourself." Merril patted Linda on the shoulder and hugged her.

"Actually I have a better idea, but I don't know if Linda will accept my idea." Jean said that made Linda stop being sad.

"I proposed linda rent a house around here for a month." Jean continues.

"But the housing around here is very expensive for rent." Merril said that made Linda feel desperate again. Housing in the surrounding area, is an upscale house whose rent per month may be equivalent to Linda's salary for a year.

"I can lend some money temporarily to Linda. After all, later people will leave their belongings including homes and also at the end of the day money or precious metals will not be of value later." Jean explains this so that Linda does not feel depressed about the money that Jean will spend only for herself.

"Then how will I pay the lady a favor later? I feel uncomfortable." Linda was still feeling depressed and for the first time she felt herself to be an ungrateful person.

"Of course pay for it by making me a snack every day!" Jean said in a joking tone.

"Is that enough?" Linda's a little unsure.

"Then I'll ask you to make me a snack every day of my life." After that Linda was determined to make and find a snack that suits Jean's taste.

Jean is sitting back and getting bored, she then plans on disrupting the quiet system, she can't stand it a little when she sees a rigid system like a robot.

"What system am I now just waiting for this world to collapse?" Jean asked in an annoyed tone.

'Master, this world won't collapse' the system reminds Jean.

"Then what will the coming apocalypse be called? Mass extermination?" Jean asked furiously.

'No, it could be said that it was the beginning of the human evolutionary process. Weak humans will gradually disappear and be replaced by a generation of strong humans. '

"That's so cruel!" Jean sneers.

'I think it's still a little bit more human than the earth being hit by meteors to make the earth evolve slowly' The system denies.

"Can we get rid of this absurd plot of the novel?" Jean still feels insecure.

'In the end you just think about yourself' said the system that made Jean choke on biscuits out of anger.

"I'm fine, give me some water" Jean wanted to get some water on the table but the glass was empty.

"Let me just." Said Liam who suddenly appeared.

"No! I'm the one who took the water!" Misael refuses to budge, they argue constantly and forget that Jean is still choking.

"Hurry now! Do you want to see your brother die, uhuk..." Jean yells, they wake up and run to the kitchen to race who gets the water first. Before they fight again, Jean immediately snatches the two glasses from the hands of Mishael and Liam.

"Is it too late to regret?" Ask Jean to herself.

System: ........

"So shall the water be lacking if he... " Before Mishael continued Jean immediately cut "no! Nah! Brother is better." Jean had a headache when Misael and Liam were acting out.

"Miss, I've got information about the house to rent." Randalf suddenly came and spoke.

"Your uncle is my savior!" Jean hurried away from Liam and Mishael.

"So how?" Ask Jean

"Linda was lucky enough that the house on the left would be rented out by the owner." Randalf then explains the lease terms.

"Well rent the house, about the cost I don't think about it too much." In this way Jean will not worry about losing her favorite chef, after all Linda has been willing to be a chef for life so Jean feels less of a loss.

"Tomorrow we will meet the owner of the house next door, all to see the condition of the house." Randalf said, then resumed his work.

"Sister! Why did you leave us?" Ask Liam and Misael simultaneously.

"Stop! If you keep bothering me then you're not allowed to call me brother anymore." It was Jean who made the two go silent.

"Jean don't be so hard on them, they're still kids." Merrill advised Jean.

"But.. " Jean wants to explain but Merril cuts first.

"It is not good to argue with a minor." Merrill felt sorry for Liam and Misael, he had to teach Jean how to take care of the children otherwise her marriage would only be a corn.

Jean's mouth twitched as she looked at the faces of Liam and Misael who were acting like they had been persecuted by her.

"Ughs.. Alright. " Jean can only give up.

'System see how cunning the two foxes are' Jean secretly complains to the system.

'Thank you for your fate, after all I see they are innocent.'

'Are you blind? Look how they're bluffing me!' Jean is getting upset with the system.

'Who asked them to call you brother?'

'I' Jean answered honestly.

'So they're not wrong' The system makes a conclusion.

'Where's your brain! Look at them clearly wrong!' Jean was getting clueless with the system.

'I have no brain' said the system flatly.

Jos: .......

Jean then stops arguing with the system then continues chewing on her favorite snack. Merril suddenly thought that the supplies Jean had bought were too few, and he went to Jean.

"Miss isn't our supply too little?" Jean then turned her head and looked at Merril who seemed to be a bit panicked.

"Let's just relax Aunt Merril I've prepared everything." Said Jean who was still chewing casually.

"If the apocalypse arrives is there still clothing and other necessities?" Tanya Merril who was slightly depressed saw Jean's still relaxed behavior.

"Wait for me to check it out." Jean recalled that she had not checked the price of the need for which the system had not yet been sold, she then returned to the room and locked the door and entered the room. Although he had told about the apocalypse but he did not tell about his second ability because he had been commemorated not to divulge the secrets of space until the apocalypse arrived.

"System show the store, I'll check the price." The system then displays a screen where each item is neatly categorized.

"Do you rob me! Why is the price of the ability so expensive!" Jean was surprised when checking the price to buy and raised the ability level. To raise the first level Jean needs a white crystal of 10 but to raise the next level the number 0 will increase by at least one.

Level 1 \= 10 white crystals

Level 2 \= 100 white crystal

Level 3 \= 1000 white crystal

Level 4 \= 10 yellow crystals

Level 5 \= 100 yellow crystal

Level 6 \= 10 green crystal

Level 7 \= 100 green crystal

Level 8 \= 1000 green crystal

Level 9 \= 10 red crystal

Level 10 \= 100 red crystal

....

"I think I've been very generous, besides your job is very easy. There is no need to kill zombies, just sell supplies then you have got the crystal. Is that less generous?"

"But how long it took to collect the crystal nucleus just to raise 1 ability alone." Jean is still protesting.

"If you want to quickly get a crystal just kill and slaughter zombies. " Said the system that did not receive Jean's complaint.

"See the price for one light bulb only 50 white crystals. Where is your conscience!" Jean complains again, and is forced out by a system that cannot stand Jean's complaint.

"Hey! Is this how you treat your master!" The system seems deaf and does not answer Jean. Jean came out of the room and went back to chewing her snacks with an annoyed face.

"Is the supply not much?" Merrill asked again.

"Just calm down, our supplies will be enough even until I die." Jean answered in such a bad mood that Merril restlessly met Randalf.

"Randalf, I'm worried that our supplies won't be enough." Merril.

"How much are your savings?" Randal asked.

"Maybe about 10,000 dollars. Do you want to buy supplies too? If I did I'd give all my savings."

"I have about 20,000 dollars, is this still enough?" Randalf took out his savings book.

"I think this is enough, let's buy supplies." Randalf and Merril prepare to leave, and Jean approaches Merril.

"Are you two going on a date?" Ask Jean.

"Our lady isn't dating but we want to go buy supplies." Merril said with a flushed face.

"Ah.. I know, I know, go and be careful on the road." Jean still thinks that Randalf and Merril are dating because they are both single and not married at all, and as Jean recalls in the novel it is mentioned that Randalf confessed that he liked Merril right before their death.

"Big brother where did Uncle Randalf and Aunt Merril go?" Liam asked.

"They want to date." Answer Jean.

"Can I come?" Ask Liam again.

"No way! Do you want to interrupt their date? Let them be alone first." Jean refused immediately.

"What is a date?" Liam still doesn't understand what dating is.

"Dating is where you spend time with your girlfriend. Do you understand?" Jean explained.

"I see, I've seen Uncle Gill's son date. Are they going to do that secretly?" Ask Five again.

"Do what?" Jean was not clear with Liam's question.

"Doing that.. " Liam's voice seemed so ambiguous that Jean's mind wandered.

"You're a c*bul boy!" Jean once again rambles and begins to explain what should be said and what children should not.

"Sister I mean if they had dinner together. Look who c*bul really is?" Liam explained. His eyes seemed so innocent that Jean did not know Liam's true devious thoughts were plaguing him.

"alright.. Go play there!" Jean is upset with Liam.

"i feel like I'm being fooled by a boy'' Jean complained.

'You were fooled' The system wanted to say that but he kept quiet so as not to argue with Jean again.
