Apocalypse King System
Chapter 186 186: Camilla's Choice

Upon hearing the question from her fellow sisters, Liu Mingyue also harbored the same doubts. If her mother indeed held a significant position here, she shouldn't be doing such laborious work, especially in the temporary role of a maid.

Swallowing her food, Wu Mengfei shook her head and said, "I don't know about that. Look at those maids, they're the perfect ones to ask. Why don't you go and inquire?"

Liu Mingyue hesitated for a moment, then stood up from her seat and approached the maids who had worked on car washing together in the afternoon.

Seeing Liu Mingyue coming over, the maids at the table quickly made way, displaying both respect and awe on their faces, leaving Liu Mingyue utterly puzzled.

"Please, have a seat."

Looking at the available seat in front of her, Liu Mingyue's confusion reached its peak. If it were pre-apocalypse, she could understand why these women would show such reverence, but now, in this post-apocalyptic world where everyone's status was seemingly equal, why were these maids so afraid of her? Why? What was the reason?

Subconsciously, she took a seat, gazing at the maids as she inquired, "Why are you all so afraid of me? This phenomenon started this afternoon. Do you know my mother?"

The maids exchanged glances, and one of them seemed eager to speak but was restrained by another who shook her head. The maid who wanted to speak seemed to reconsider her words and held back. The maids were not fools; they clearly understood that Moonlight probably knew her own identity. Yet, they didn't dare to divulge any information, likely fearing the consequences of meddling in high-level affairs within the base.

The maids' reaction made Liu Mingyue even more uncomfortable, and her curiosity felt like it was about to explode.

"Hurry up and tell me, do you know something?" Liu Mingyue hurriedly asked, but the maids shook their heads, helpless. Unable to get any information, Liu Mingyue left the table in frustration after recounting the situation.

After hearing Liu Mingyue's account, the group of sisters looked at each other.

Putting down her bowl, facing the gaze of her fellow sisters, Wu Mengfei, as the leader of this group of rich young ladies, had a certain level of authority.

"Based on Moonlight's description, I can roughly deduce two points. First, Moonlight's mother is indeed here, and her status is not low. Second, it's possible that Moonlight's mother has a sensitive identity or some difficult-to-discuss secret, which is why she hasn't come to pick up Moonlight. This could be a form of protection. Of course, it might also be related to something she did that Moonlight shouldn't know about."

Although Wu Mengfei's speculation wasn't entirely accurate, it covered a significant portion of the truth.

While everyone was contemplating the situation, another large group of women poured into the cafeteria, instantly causing a commotion.

Observing the disheveled appearance of the incoming women, Wu Mengfei curiously watched them and pulled one of the nearby maids, asking, "Who are these people?"

The maid glanced at Wu Mengfei, perceiving her beautiful appearance, and subconsciously replied with caution, "Those should be the survivors brought in today. However, they'll soon have the same status as us unless they choose to become female warriors and go out to kill zombies. But whether they get that chance depends on whether the mistresses come over at night."

"If the mistresses come over at night, it means there's a chance to choose to become a female warrior. If they don't, it means they have to wait a while."

Hearing about the opportunity to become a female warrior, Wu Mengfei's eyes lit up. She pointed at the women with machetes and asked, "Female warriors refer to those people, right? Does choosing to become a female warrior mean we don't have to be maids anymore?"

The woman nodded, looking at Wu Mengfei with envy as she said, "Yes, the mission of female warriors is to kill zombies. I heard that the weapons they use are bestowed by the almighty Master. The machetes contain the power of the Master, and killing zombies activates that power, strengthening the user's body!"

"Have you seen those female warriors? Now they're like superwomen. The first-generation female warriors have mostly become squad leaders and captains. The powerful ones can even leap across rooftops, unleash sword energy; they're really formidable. Moreover, female warriors have a higher status and have a great chance of interacting with the Master. If the Master takes notice of you, it's equivalent to making it big!"

Listening to this, Wu Mengfei's heart surged with excitement. Leaping across rooftops? Swords? Power? Strengthening? Now she understood. No wonder those women were so powerful, even beating the men with pistols. If there was external enhancement, that would explain it.

Wu Mengfei surveyed the cafeteria and noticed that it was filled with women. Curiously, she asked, "Is the Master a man or a woman? I've noticed that we haven't seen any men here. Could it be that the Master is also a woman?"

The maid quickly shook her head, waving her hands, "No, no, no. The Master is a man, the only man. Our rule is not to involve men, only women. The Master is omnipotent with women, so we don't need men to interfere."

Wu Mengfei suddenly understood. No wonder those maids were so unrestrained in the afternoon, dressed scantily and even pouring water on themselves. It turned out there were no men in the entire hospital, and the only man was the leader of the entire organization. All the women belonged to that man, so they naturally didn't mind being seen.

"Do you know me then?" Wu Mengfei asked.

The woman shook her head, hesitating, "No, I don't know you. You must be new here today, right? I work in the orchard. How about you?"

Wu Mengfei had a thought and glanced at the bewildered Liu Mingyue. She schemed in her mind, "The maids who saw Moon Yi Ren in the afternoon won't be easy to deceive. This one who doesn't know me might be able to find out some information!"

"I'm Wu Mengfei. I heard that our organization has a high-ranking member named Camilla. Do you know her? She's my relative. Can you tell me where she is? There will be benefits for you later," Wu Mengfei said.

The woman was stunned for a moment, looking at Wu Mengfei with eyes colored by envy.

"I know. Lady Camilla lives in the central part of the base. She is a high-ranking member just below the Master and the Mistress, serving as the Master's exclusive pet. You'll be in luck if you establish a connection. Just remember to promote me when the time comes," the woman said with a hint of envy.

Wu Mengfei didn't pay much attention to the rest of what the woman said. She was a bit bewildered. Now she understood why Camilla hadn't come to find Liu Mingyue and why Lady Moon Yi Ren hadn't chosen to help her. It was somewhat similar to what she had speculated.

The noise in the cafeteria quickly subsided. Under the intimidation of a few female warriors, the cafeteria soon became quiet.

At the dining table, Wu Mengfei looked at Liu Mingyue, who seemed downcast. She didn't know if there were some things she should say.

What could she say? Your mom is preparing to find you a stepfather? And she's playing it so hardcore, becoming someone else's pet? That's not good, right?

Staring at Liu Mingyue with a weird look, Wu Mengfei felt a bit uncomfortable. "Feifei, why are you looking at me like this? If you have something to say, just say it. Between sisters, there's nothing we can't talk about, right?"

Struggling internally, Wu Mengfei ultimately chose to reveal the harsh truth. However, she refrained from using the term "pet," only mentioning that Camilla had become the Master's woman. After all, it seemed better to let the mother and daughter discuss such matters themselves.

After hearing this, Liu Mingyue's expression was different from what Wu Mengfei had imagined. Looking at Liu Mingyue's calm and even somewhat puzzled expression, Wu Mengfei was dumbfounded.

"Mingyue, aren't you angry?"

"No, not at all. I'm not angry at all," Liu Mingyue shrugged, her face showing complete indifference.

"What's the big deal? My parents separated several years ago. If my dad can fool around outside, why can't my mom find someone to rely on? Even before the apocalypse, I told my mom she could have her own fun. It's just that my mom comes from an intellectual family and has to maintain the image of the mayor's wife. She's too conservative."

The group of sisters at the dining table had their minds blown. Your ideological awareness is really something.

"Mengfei, you said my mom is in the middle of the base, right?"

Surprised, Wu Mengfei looked at Liu Mingyue and nervously asked, "What do you want to do? The area near the supermarket is off-limits. If you don't want to die, don't mess around. I'll secretly go find Auntie tomorrow. Do you have Auntie's photos on your phone?"

Liu Mingyue quickly took out her phone and found a photo of her and Camilla.

Wu Mengfei glanced at it, astonished. "You and your mom look so alike? Except for the different temperament, I almost thought you were twins."
