Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

Even though the speech is just a formality, it should at least look presentable...

"Ahem... Alright, newcomers, welcome to Grey Biotechnology Products Co., Ltd. I think you can already foresee your own and the company's prospects just by looking at the salary and benefits before you join the company."

After saying that, she pressed the remote control, and the slideshow switched to a table showing the pyramid structure of the company's various positions and their corresponding compensation.

After quickly browsing through their job descriptions, the new employees exchanged glances, each conveying a different meaning, but none of them expressed any dissatisfaction.

She remained calm and continued, "Our company has sufficient funds to support all capable and creative employees in conducting their respective research projects, which can be routine pharmaceutical manufacturing or new scientific research experiments. Upon completion, the employee will enjoy independent intellectual property rights and receive additional financial support."

Before the sentence was even finished, some employees could hardly contain their excitement, especially the latter part about independent intellectual property rights. This meant that their research results wouldn't be swallowed up by the company in any way afterward...

They can focus on their research with peace of mind and receive support from the company – that's fantastic!

Mrs. Grey smiled obligingly and then switched the slides again.

"I know you are all very excited. Before you start working, regarding the intellectual property aspect, the company will sign a contract with you before you officially start your jobs. We have guaranteed your interests regarding the ownership of funds and intellectual property rights, so please feel free to study and strive to achieve key breakthroughs in your respective fields."

Outside the meeting room, sisters Mercury Rose and Nemokin, along with Morido, were watching Mrs. Grey's performance through the glass wall. As they expected, Mrs. Grey's performance was as stable as ever, not only due to her years of experience in the workplace, but also because the welfare system she provided was truly practical.

"From the beginning, these employees were just a smokescreen. We allowed them to conduct their own research and provided them with generous salaries and intellectual property protection in order to deal with the inspections and inquiries from reporters that we would need them to face these eyes in the most natural way. The real research was in the hands of Gray and Ms. Pascal."

Moriarty calmly explained the actual arrangements, and the three of them couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Since the commander has given them full authority, naturally, they should use the methods they are more accustomed to...

"And what about Miss Pascal and Griffin's friends?"

Nemokin was quite curious as to why Ms. Pascal, a key member of the team, was not present on the first day of the company's operational meeting.

"They're moving equipment in the underground research institute." Morito subconsciously tiptoed a couple of times in her high heels.

Now, apart from Pascal, the work here is actually being guided by the likes of Nieto...

Inside the meeting room, Mrs. Gray continued to explain the company's situation.

"I think you all know how fierce the competition is on Wall Street, especially in this newly developed area. Moreover, the industry giant 'Umbrella' is less than a kilometer away from us. Therefore, for the long-term healthy operation of the company, and for your own interests, whether it is for money or for dreams, please work harder. Gray Biotechnology Products will always be your strong support."

Applause erupted as dozens of employees stood up, all with smiles on their faces. This wasn't just for the benefits they were about to receive, but also because of the friendly relationship between the employees and the company. Among these new employees were many capable and passionate young people who longed to achieve significant success in their favorite industries. The protection of intellectual property rights was the cornerstone for realizing their dreams, and the additional funding system allowed them to fully unleash their potential and pour their sweat and enthusiasm into their work.

Mrs. Grey didn't engage in the usual workplace pleasantries, make empty promises, or display any hypocritical ugliness. She simply clarified the company's and employees' positions, which was enough to make the employees happy, for themselves and for the company.

As for Mrs. Grey, she never intended to betray them; she merely left them behind as cover. However, objectively speaking, she did give them room to maneuver, so she could be considered to have done a good thing...

This is precisely one of the reasons Pascal was quite satisfied with Mrs. Grey's approach: she didn't harm innocent people; on the contrary, she provided them with opportunities for development. In the past, if the cleanup had been thorough enough, perhaps none of the people here would have escaped...

"AK15, please move the centrifuge to the corner; Ah, M4! Just put it there!"

While surface work was being carried out on the upper level, preparations for actual work were also underway below, with a large number of facilities being moved to designated locations.

The institute's entrance is located inside a hidden door in the security room of the underground parking lot. Who would have thought that the institute's entrance is not somewhere else, but inside the security room?

Naturally, security personnel will be replaced by Nieto, but not as a living, modified humanoid.

Now that the research institute is powered on, Pascal is observing the situation inside the company through the wall-mounted monitors.

It must be said that Mrs. Grey's public speaking ability is truly remarkable. If I were standing next to the projector, I probably wouldn't be able to utter a single word for ages...

"Miss Pascal, where should this coffee machine be placed?"

"Oh, it's ready on the table."

The composed smile that followed the speech was the finishing touch, giving the impression of a successful entrepreneur with unwavering ambition, someone who, even after achieving great success, still wants to leave something behind in their field of expertise.

Even she herself was almost moved by this sincere performance, but since she wasn't working for Mrs. Grey, she wasn't swayed by it and just watched...

P.S.: Sorry everyone, I was being impulsive. Maybe I'm just too prone to anxiety...

I will continue to tell you this story, I promise.

Unfortunately, this story is too long and requires another book to tell in its entirety. The next book will be about the real apocalypse.

Multiple organizations, order restructuring, large-scale wars, and infighting among high-ranking leaders will all occur.

They're just making empty promises to everyone.

It's a pity the story is so long that I probably won't have time to write a fanfic for "Lily of the End".

But I'll still keep it; maybe I'll start writing it someday?

I know the original work has a lot of angst, so in my style, I'll definitely write a sweeter story.

Of course, we'll see in the future. Maybe I'll just start writing on a whim.

Of course, this will definitely not stop.

Don't stop!!!

356 New Dangers

Well, let's figure out where to put the equipment first. We need to find a place to put the bed...

Sleepy-eyed Da Mao Mao yawned, got up, and dragged his long white coat into the room.

"Go on, Sister Morito, it's your turn to go on stage."

Mercury Rose opened the door, and they could still hear Mrs. Grey's calm voice as she spoke.

Morido also adjusted her mindset and walked in with a brand new look.

After all, this is the workplace; you need to make a good first impression on everyone...

Of course, there's a harsh reality in the workplace: judging people isn't always based on ability; there are other considerations as well. And Moriarty, naturally, has an advantage in this regard...

As Morido entered the conference room, Gray followed suit, saying, "If you have any needs or questions, you can consult my secretary, Miss Hannah Ashley."

She bowed and said, "Hello everyone, if you have any questions about the company, or if you would like to speak with the boss, 'Grey Alexandra,' please feel free to come to me."

"Yes, I am also conducting drug research projects internally, so I may not be available all the time. Please understand."

The two worked together to establish a preliminary network of relationships within the company.

Then, Nemokin and Mercury Rose entered one after the other.

"These two are Ms. Mercury Rose Alicia, head of the Human Resources Department, and Ms. Nemokin Alicia, head of the Finance Department. You can consult them for questions regarding positions, personnel transfers, and finance."

The two sisters did not introduce themselves in much detail, but simply smiled and bowed.

The employees were also somewhat surprised, not expecting that the company's senior management was entirely composed of women, and that the heads of the finance and human resources departments were even sisters...

The current situation is still relatively good; after all, in a while, even the company's security personnel will be composed of women...

As long as Ti arrives, we'll have a security captain.

"Alright, meeting adjourned. Work in the office area will begin today, and work for the researchers will begin tomorrow. Everyone, please get ready."

After the meeting, the employees returned to their respective work stations, and the Nietos also returned to their offices.

When research is needed, Mrs. Grey will go into the underground research institute to work with Pascal, while on ordinary days she will stay in the top-floor office with Moridor.

In public, Moriarty is Gray's secretary; in private, she is Gray's "teacher."

After closing the door, Morido slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the bustling city.

"Grey, are you all ready? Every step we take from here on out, and whether we can achieve his goal, will depend on your abilities."

"Of course, teacher. We have detailed plans for showcasing the company's prospects, preventing takeovers, attracting shareholders, the speech, the development process, and the gala preparations. Now, all we need to do is let time prove them right."

The two men's gazes were no longer as kind as they had been in their memories; now, they resembled venomous snakes flicking their tongues, cold and malevolent.

They bared their fangs, ready to spit venom into the city of New York...

Moriarty's smile slowly appeared; things were moving in a satisfactory direction—at least temporarily.

After a while, the number of dissatisfied people will increase...

"Let things fall into chaos again, like they did in Bremen..."

As if she could already see the future, Morido became even more excited.

I wonder what they will choose...?

"Teacher, have you contacted the commander? I can't get in touch with them."

Gray took the file out of the drawer and sat down in his office chair.

Morido turned around: "I tried it. There has been no signal for the three hours since he left."

"Um......"

......

Eight hours ago

"It's still unnaturally quiet here..."

Lofan peeked out of the alleyway. Apart from zombies and a few scattered Tyrants, he didn't see any military or Umbrella personnel.

This isn't Raccoon City, so the number of zombies is still considerable, but the presence of the Tyrant indicates that Umbrella has significantly expanded the deployment area of ​​BOWs, extending them to most of Colorado.

Out of concern for being exposed to the military and Umbrella, they tried to avoid all the zombie hordes and tyrants, but this took up a lot of time.

Several city blocks were blocked by zombies...

Mondragon whispered, "Commander, I think we need to speed things up. It's easier to expose ourselves during the day in winter, so we should take advantage of the night to move towards the central area as quickly as possible."

"I agree. Time doesn't allow us to take too many detours, so we should prioritize time."

Adeline echoed, "It seems nobody thinks constantly circling around the zombie horde is a good idea..."

Time is indeed an issue. Considering Mrs. Grey's situation and Yingque's condition, it would be better if they didn't stay away for too long, so as not to worry their families.

"Okay, let's go straight there, but be careful not to get caught."

"Commander, shouldn't you be worried about getting caught first?"

Alpha Group didn't hold back in throwing cold water on the idea.

Okay, indeed...

"No matter what, let's go!"

Upon receiving the order, the group rushed out of the alley in an instant. In the complete darkness without streetlights, they could only vaguely see several figures moving at high speed across the street and into the next alley.

The zombies only noticed that someone had passed by, but their neural responses couldn't keep up with how fast they disappeared.

So they crossed the street safely and continued along the shortest path to the city center.

"Hey, wait, wait, stop!"

Just as AA12 and Victor were about to run across the next block, Lovan pulled them back in time.

"What's wrong, Commander? Have military personnel been spotted?"

Viktor was puzzled; apart from the zombies, she hadn't noticed anything unusual.

But something special is inside the zombies...

Luo Fan pointed to a strong zombie on the street and said warily, "See that thing? We saw these kinds of zombies in Raccoon City before. Once they spot a target, they lure all their kind over, remember?"

At first, Victor didn't realize it, but after noticing the signature ripped jaw and protruding, trembling ribs, she remembered.

This thing is very dangerous...

Attacked on June 357

The creature patrolled the streets, dodging all the zombies in its path, seemingly wandering aimlessly. But judging from its gait and heavy breathing, it was hungry; it craved a victim...

Although they have only seen one so far, the Dark Tide Squad is on high alert. Based on past experience, if they can see one of these creatures, it means there are more nearby. Once one of them discovers them, all the zombies in the vicinity will be attracted here.

Luo Fan pointed to an entrance across the street and whispered, "See that iron gate? Lane 14. We'll go that way, avoid this section, and then decide based on the zombie density."

"understood."

"receive."

"Ok."

After the girls gave an affirmative answer, Lofan, Alpha, JS9, and Mondragon set off as the first group, crossing the street.

"That guy stopped and is looking somewhere else. Now's the time to go!"

At a command, the four men moved quickly, trying to cross the road as fast as possible, but winter was always the biggest problem, and the sound of their footsteps on the snow added a threshold to their speed.

But at least there are still many disabled cars on the road that can be used...

The four men stopped behind a car that was severely damaged in a violent collision and gestured for their teammates to catch up with them.

A few scattered zombies noticed them, but were shot and killed before they could get into serious danger.
