"They escaped?"
Zhang Hao raised an eyebrow, looking surprised: "So many of you Level 6 Awakened Ones couldn't take down a Zombie King? What's going on? What kind of Zombie King is this?"
Fang Ping said cautiously, "President, the zombie king itself was actually not very strong. We had already retreated and surrounded it... but who knew that it would have wings and could breathe fire."
"The species was the same Red Winged Zombie we'd seen before. It flew north before we could even make contact with it, and we didn't have time to catch up. I'm sorry... It's our responsibility."
"It doesn't matter."
Zhang Hao shook his head: "After all, Red Wings can fly and are not easy to chase. Also, Crow went to Qiongzhou Island with me. I forgot to send some manta rays to support you in advance. This was my oversight."
“A level six Crimson Wing is nothing to worry about. Since it flew north, it’s very likely that it went to Linhai City. Xiao Wu, send out the mutated rats to negotiate with Onimaru and confirm the information about this zombie king.”
"Yes, Chairman." Meng Wu nodded.
"What about the supplies? How's the transportation going? What's the exact quantity?" Zhang Hao asked.
"With manta rays in the air, transportation is very convenient. Our supplies should be transported by tomorrow morning, just as you predicted... There are less than 600,000 tons of various supplies in Leizhou City."
Meng Wu replied, "Most of the food comes from large supplier warehouses. The emergency power reserves here ensure the freshness of the food. However, food only accounts for less than 30% of the total. The rest are daily necessities."
"What about the survivors in other jurisdictions? How were they dealt with?" Zhang Hao asked again.
"As per your instructions, I sent out the Dawn Society's main recruitment advertisement in advance, and many small awakened organizations were happy to join."
Meng Wu asked, "However, it's not so willing for organizations of a slightly larger size. Some people want to develop in Linhai City, while others seem to be staying put. Do we need to recruit them by force?"
"unnecessary."
Zhang Hao shook his head: "It's normal for the leaders of these organizations to be arrogant. Our Dawn Society doesn't need to force anyone to join. We won't force anyone who doesn't want to, but they can't stay in this city."
"Leizhou City is our Dawn Society's first base city, and it is the first war fortress for future defense against maritime crises. Everyone needs to work together as one and eliminate all those who are unwilling to join."
"Won't this cause a backlash?" Fang Ping asked worriedly.
"That's inevitable, but so what? It's my territory, I'm in charge. So what if they don't like it? Are they going to jump up and hit my knee? That will only leave them with a bloody head."
"You're right."
Zhang Hao didn't care at all.
These awakened individuals harbored those fragile emotions.
The Dawn Society definitely needs to grow stronger.
But the target will not be limited to humans; how many humans are left on Earth?
Some may think that those who are not of our kind must have different intentions, but humanity alone cannot overcome the future apocalyptic crisis. At that time, we still need to pay attention to these things.
Sooner or later, humanity will regret it when it becomes extinct.
Especially...
Humans are a race that is very fond of infighting.
Even in the apocalypse, only a few outstanding humans with a broad perspective will plan ahead.
The others are all short-sighted people.
Unless humanity faces extinction, we should continue to fight our own battles.
There's nothing wrong with this idea from a standpoint of view, but you shouldn't interfere with my planning and layout.
Although Hu Xiaonan is able to detect lies.
However, the daily consumption of supernatural energy is limited, the ocean crisis is imminent, and screening these people is too time-consuming and laborious.
So let's just eliminate it and solve the problem once and for all.
In addition, at this stage...
A thousand stingrays is far too few.
We've gathered 500 octopuses so far, but that's simply not enough.
The southern peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and its coastline is so long that it is nearly 1,200 kilometers long. Including the nearby small islands, the total coastline may even exceed 1,500 kilometers.
The coastal area around Leizhou City alone stretches for 240 kilometers, and this number of octopuses can only barely keep watch over the area of about 20 kilometers near Tianlei Mountain.
We need to be vigilant about the entire coastline of the southern peninsula.
It would require at least 30,000 mutated marine creatures, and that's just near the coastline.
If we can withstand the threat of ocean landings in the future.
If Dawn truly develops, it will be inevitable to expand the warning area as a buffer zone, and even increase the exploration of the deep sea area, as 100,000 marine creatures are far from enough.
"How many people does Dawn currently have? How many people are in the Legion?" Zhang Hao asked.
"We've already reached nearly 100,000, but we're expanding too fast, even though the strategist has screened out any spies."
Fang Ping replied, "After deducting logistics and family members, there are nearly 30,000 people, but since they have just joined the Dawn Society, they have little loyalty, so the legion still only has 50,000 people."
"As long as they're not spies, their loyalty will gradually increase."
Zhang Hao immediately said, "Let these 30,000 men be incorporated into the legion and serve as combat reserves. If any unforeseen circumstances arise, these 30,000 men will also have to go into battle. Any deserters will be executed on the spot!"
"Yes, Chairman."
"Where's the octopus? Is it still on guard?"
"Yes."
"Keep it on guard, and all outposts need to be kept in close watch to prevent marine life from landing on other coastlines. But the Dawn Legion only needs to be stationed at Thunder Mountain; they don't need to go anywhere else."
Zhang Hao quickly instructed, "In addition, Master Mo Yu should smelt the recovered metal as soon as possible, equip every legion member with refined weapons and equipment, and replace the stone walls of Tianlei Mountain with high-hardness metal walls—and raise them to twenty meters."
"Yes, President." Mo Yu nodded.
Everyone dispersed.
Only Fang Ping, Hong Lian, and Raven remained.
Zhang Hao relaxed a little, but his expression remained serious.
The raven asked softly, "What's wrong, Dad? Are sea creatures really that scary? These defenses should be enough, right?"
"No, that's far from enough."
Zhang Hao shook his head: "The strength of the marine life is secondary. The only thing that is frightening is that there are far too many of them. The so-called zombie horde is nothing compared to them. You can't be too careful."
