87 Chapter 87: Millitary Scouts IV

Meaning currently I have a full advantage no matter what happens.

The military is here in search of some big shot from wall street. I don't know who this person is but it would seem that the military found him in my last life according to some insider news from some soldiers.

Meaning this person is currently alive.

This guy could possibly be a good bargaining chip to have if I was to get to him before the military does.

Right now the military needs my help.

Although they don't even know it yet.

Manhattan Bridge.

That is my first bargaining chip.

If I can get hold of the person they came through all the trouble to bring back then that is another bargaining chip.

So what I need to do right now is get information about who the guy they are looking for is and whether or not he is really useful.

If the bigshot is only the friend of some military leader and is rich then he can directly go to hell for all I care but if he is like maybe a son of some leader then he could be of some use.

Although I don't know the exact status of this person from the information I gathered in my last life this person seemed to be very important to the military for some reason.

So I should first try getting information about who this person is first. If he is useful to me I can save him if he isn't I'll simply send my guys out on the lookout for this guy then turn him over to the military for a price.

I quickly bring them into the building but before entering we pass by some tall walls which have guards holding assault rifles.

Only after passing through that checkpoint did we enter the lobby of the building which has now turned into a shopping center.

In this lobby, I have various stalls set up so the people can trade their various finds in for items that they might need.

In the 5 days prior to the scout's arrivals, I had collected up all the supplies which the people have scavenged for and made it into resources that they could trade for. Among the inventory of supplies that they could trade for were various different foods, Tabacco Products, Toliet paper, Weapons, and lots of other miscellaneous items.

In the 5 days prior I had been busy copying over the way in which large survival bases interacted with the people who survived in them.

I created a currency using the Cards I gave them which stored a balance on them and handed pricing the objects which we collected to a few accountants I found along the way.

Since this was only a couple days since civilization died most of the people understood how currency worked and since the cards were created using a magic artifact I had no fear of there being any tampering for now.

Thus I reintroduced the currency system into my little survival base.

When the soldiers past by the lobby they were staring at the food.

It would seem they had become hungry after about a week's journey through hordes of Zombies.

I took the elevator up to my room which was mounted on the top floor. It was the sole floor that was completely sealed off to all people other than me my sister a couple of golems and a certain mad scientist which I forced to research a certain birdman specimen.

Upon arrival, I have greeted the golems which first scanned me before letting us in.

"Brother! Your late the food has almost started to turn cold!"

"Sorry, I was only picking up these soldiers which came to visit ok. It took a while to get them all there Cards and past all the checkpoints."

Rolling her eyes at me she left for her room to practice her powers.

I sat down at the table which was full of food.

Due to knowing that the soldiers were coming, I had made sure that there was enough food prepared for them as well, but because of the checkpoints which I set up the food had already started to go cold.

I quickly ordered a golem to reheat all the food in a microwave.

I invited all the soldiers for a seat before letting my Mini Butler Golem offer them some drinks.

The soldiers looked at the golem with great surprise and with great interest especially the captain, most likely because he could sense the Mana core within the golem.

After the food was reheated and the soldiers were seated down I had the captain of the soldiers follow me into another room.

By having the captain of the soldiers talk with me privately I can put more pressure on him.

The captain in front of these soldiers have to put up an act to keep the moral of there soldiers high so they will try there best to make sure that he doesn't show a bad side of himself to them. Especially now that they are in a crisis situation where the government could have very well collapsed.

But by being alone with me his soldiers won't be here with him and seeing as this is my territory he is more likely to give in to my requests if I was to pressure him. For example, asking for the name of the man they are searching for and why this person is important.

Humans tend to stick together as well for they have the mindset of alone weak together strong.

This is especially the case with soldiers for they were trained for teamwork.

By singling out the captain alone he will naturally become weaker in spirit when talking to me. Not that it really matters even if the soldiers were all together.

Just making this situation more favorable to me with the least amount of trouble.

For its a pain in the ass to solve problems which could have been easily avoided.
