Apocalypse King System
Chapter 154 154: Formation of the Supernatural Department

Although Angelica had been with Lisa and the others for a long time and had gradually become familiar with each other, Yue Yiren, who had just joined, was still somewhat unfamiliar to her. However, at this moment, she wouldn't disrespect Derick and actively approached Yue Yiren, holding her hand to show friendliness.

Seeing Yue Yiren quickly integrating into the group of four sisters, Derick expressed his satisfaction.

In the following time, Derick deliberately discussed with Yue Yiren and a few other women with management experience to optimize the management departments in the base.

"These five departments proposed by the master are basically fine and can ensure the smooth operation of the entire base. As for the level system and the management of the maids, I will come up with a plan in the next few days," Yue Yiren spoke confidently to Derick.

Indeed, as expected of a female CEO who had managed thousands of employees, Yue Yiren put forward many constructive policies, such as changing the base's previous allocation system to a more efficient one, establishing a merit system, and introducing a currency system when necessary. These measures would effectively increase the enthusiasm of the female warriors and maids, benefiting the development of the base.

"Good, then you will be in charge of coordinating," Derick said.

Having no management experience and generally disliking such matters, Derick had entrusted the base's management to Angelica and Lisa before. He preferred to stay above, acting as a deity within the base.

"Quiet down. Today, I've gathered you here to announce a few things. Firstly, the master will select some outstanding female warriors to reward them with abilities. Secondly, several departments with specific responsibilities will be added to the base to manage various matters," Yue Yiren declared.

In the crowd, Sacha nudged Tess, who was still in a daze. "Hey, Tess, did you hear that? The master is going to grant us that kind of divine power again. Isn't it great?" Sacha's face was full of excitement, and she was so thrilled that she almost jumped up.

Actually, Sacha wasn't the only one. When Lisa made that announcement, many female warriors were astonished, causing a commotion. If it weren't for the prohibition on loud noise, the entire base would probably be cheering instantly. Nevertheless, the women were still buzzing like tens of thousands of sparrows.

"Stop making a fuss. Even if there is such a thing, it's impossible for us," Tess directly poured cold water on Sacha's excitement.

"Eh..." Sacha was stunned for a moment and looked at her strangely. "What's wrong with you? Lately, you seem to have lost interest in everything. Even if the master doesn't grant us divine power, being close to the master is pretty good, you know? I don't know how many women are dreaming of such a scene!"

Tess rolled her eyes, not bothering to deal with her friend who had become obsessed, almost turning into a Derick fangirl. Although she appeared indifferent, her gaze was complex as she looked at the man in front, standing on the empty ground, his face stern, being stared at with reverence and admiration by the women.

"When did I stop hating him so much?" Tess silently pondered. Initially, she was forcibly brought back to the hospital base by Lisa and even received some training tied up by Lisa. She used to harbor resentment towards Derick and the others, but after living in the base for some time, her feelings had unconsciously changed.

"Is it the environmental influence brought about by these brainwashed women?" Tess looked at the group of female warriors who seemed willing to die for their master. "Or is it the submission to his formidable power?" Tess thought of the overwhelming power she had witnessed when following the team to clear out zombies these days, especially when encountering those women with supernatural abilities.

Perhaps it was a bit of both, but what Tess pondered more was the desire to take control of her own destiny. She didn't want to be helpless when facing zombies, nor did she want to be restrained by others, easily caught and manipulated. That's why she worked even harder to gain more powerful abilities after joining the ranks of female warriors. There were times when she pushed herself to the brink of exhaustion, almost collapsing, and it took several persuasions from Sacha to make her ease up a bit.

Now, with the opportunity to easily obtain tremendous power right in front of her, Tess couldn't help but hesitate. After all, even the powerful female warriors, including those from the first batch, who could emit blade energy, were incomparable to those who had received divine power. It might even be said that they were not on the same level.

"Sigh, why think so much? Even if I'm willing, he might not be willing to give it," Tess chuckled self-deprecatingly. Shaking her head, for some reason, Lisa, who initially claimed to train her as a plaything, hadn't come to her recently. Even Derick didn't request her to share a bed, which initially made Sacha nervous for quite a while. Not only her, but even Sacha, who had already been deflowered by Derick, had few opportunities to spend time with him.

"Tess, Sacha... endowed with magnetic abilities, appointed as squad leaders in the combat department, managing fifty female warriors." Just as Tess was still lost in thought, Lisa's voice suddenly rang out from the front.

A considerable number of female warriors were included in the combat department, with over a thousand of them, almost half of the total, assigned to this department. After all, developing the base and clearing zombies were routine tasks for the base's growth.

However, not all female warriors were bestowed with supernatural abilities; only a small portion received such gifts. So, when Tess and Sacha were announced to have gained supernatural abilities, the nearby female warriors cast admiring glances.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go..." Seeing her friend in a daze, an excited Sacha quickly pulled Tess along. Other female warriors didn't need direct contact with Derick; it was those endowed with supernatural abilities who required Derick's personal touch.

Still a bit dizzy, Tess was led by Sacha to the front, joining about a dozen other female warriors who had also received supernatural abilities, ready to receive their master's reward.

Derick extended his hand, touching the forehead of a female warrior. A mysterious force transmitted through his body, causing the female warrior receiving the supernatural ability to almost lose her footing. She stared intently at Derick, making him feel a bit awkward.

As Derick slowly approached Tess and the others, Sacha quickly positioned herself, her small eyes blinking in anticipation and admiration. How could Derick not understand the girl's intentions? After transmitting the supernatural ability to her, he said, "Come to the second floor tonight..."

Hearing Derick's words, the gazes of several nearby female warriors almost seemed to ignite with jealousy as they looked at Sacha.

"Yes... Master~" Sacha nodded with a blush. With so many women surrounding the master, even someone like Sacha, a campus goddess, found it challenging to receive his favor. Naturally, Sacha couldn't help but wish for some affection from the master.

Tess, standing nearby, listened to the conversation between her best friend and Derick. She felt a mix of awkwardness and shyness, especially when Derick approached her. Her teenage heart pounded, and her face turned even redder than Sacha's.

Following the routine, Derick transferred the magnetic control ability to Tess. "Work hard and make the most of it," he said casually to the young girl.

"Yes... Mas... Master," for some unknown reason, Tess instinctively replied firmly. It was her first time voluntarily addressing him as "Master." She used to resist this title, finding it somewhat humiliating. However, her feelings now seemed much more relaxed.
