Mammoth Heavy Industries.

After Zhou Qiang came back, he went to Mammoth Heavy Industry first.

In Haidong City, Mammoth Heavy Industry has only one office location.

The factory has moved to the industrial park.

The Mammoth Industrial Park has been put into use, but the construction has not been completed.

Zhou Qiang just listened briefly to Lei Lan's report.

"Boss, there must be someone who won't give up this piece of fat meat."

Lei Lan sat in front of Zhou Qiang, and after reporting on his work, they talked about the real game behind the scenes.

Things on the surface are always just for the public to see.

The public will never know what happens behind the scenes.

The current valuation of Mammoth Heavy Industry has no real strong person to endorse it, and in the eyes of some people, it is just fat meat.

And it's a piece of fat meat that you can eat at any time.

With the combination of 17 battery manufacturers in hand, this new company cannot even be a target in the eyes of the other parties.

They will go straight for Mammoth Heavy Industries.

Both at home and abroad, everyone will be watching with eager eyes.

The impact of new battery technology on oil is actually huge.

During this period, oil prices plummeted.

It is influenced by Mammoth Heavy Industries' battery technology.

Zhou Qiang tapped the table lightly.

After a moment, he smiled and said, "It's okay. They don't dare to stretch out their claws."

“You move forward as planned.”

"Leave the deterrence matter to me."

Lei Lan nodded.

This is something that only the boss can do, no one else can do it.

The establishment of a new battery company and the merger of 17 battery manufacturers involved a restructuring of more than 300 billion yuan, which naturally was a lot of work.

No matter how strong Lei Lan's ability is, it will still take a lot of time.

Zhou Qiang did not stay in Mammoth Heavy Industry for long.

As the boss behind the scenes, he can actually have nothing to do.

There will be no problem in the operation of the company with or without him.

Zhou Qiang, the hands-off boss, does not have to worry about any problems arising in the company, because the senior and middle-level managers of important departments are all special talents who have been resurrected from zombies, and they are 100% loyal to Zhou Qiang.

With them around, Zhou Qiang can rest assured.

Everyone who is worthy of Zhou Qiang's resurrection is a true elite.

Any one of them would be as powerful as a president in any other company.

Now I am just the head of a department, which is like overusing a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

The good thing is that the existence of these people makes Mammoth Heavy Industry's efficiency far beyond that of other corporate groups.

This is the importance of talent.

But Zhou Qiang is actually the patron saint of Mammoth Heavy Industry.

As of now, Mammoth Heavy Industry is too large, and it must have sufficient strength to support its existence.

Otherwise, you will just be a piece of fat meat in the eyes of others.

With some political power, Mammoth Heavy Industries will be unable to resist.

"Deterrence plan?"

Zhou Qiang touched his chin.

"Xianxian, open the global map."

As soon as the voice fell, the global map unfolded in the form of a virtual light screen.

Zhou Qiang's eyes swept across the global map.

It is said that there is never a peaceful day in this world. Either you hit me or I hit you.

There was a ceasefire here today, but fighting started again on the other side.

There are always frictions between countries, big and small.

For deterrence actions, it seems inappropriate to look to the United States for help.

Zhou Qiang is not afraid of the United States, but it is not very appropriate to use it as a background for the deterrence plan.

It needs to be just enough so as not to affect the overall situation.

But it can also be used to deter incidents.

It is most appropriate to find a combat zone, which is where you can really flex your muscles.

Show off your muscles openly and honestly to intimidate those who need to be intimidated.

Where is the fighting going on right now?

Crow and bear.

The fight was in full swing, with both sides fighting back and forth.

It affects the United States and the European Union.

"It's decided. This is it."

Zhou Qiang tapped on the map.

Of course, the deterrence plan was not implemented so quickly. After all, those who wanted to target Mammoth Heavy Industries have not made any move yet.

Don't be in a hurry.

…………

The end of the world.

After dealing with the affairs of modern Earth, Zhou Qiang appeared again in the apocalyptic world.

The convoy has been staying at the junction of Hanzhong City and Binhai City for almost half a month.

Walk out of this commercial plaza.

The sun rises.

Zhou Qiang looked up at the fiery red sun and returned to the camp as if taking a walk.

The survivor who was serving as a sentinel here discovered Zhou Qiang from afar.

"The boss is back!"

With a shout, the camp suddenly became lively.

Zhou Qiang had been away for nearly half a month. Although they had food and drink every day, this kind of idleness made them feel empty.

Especially since Zhou Qiang is not here.

Having lost their backbone, they always have a feeling of insecurity.

Living in this doomsday full of dangers, they left the Binhai City settlement and became like rootless duckweed.

In fact, they did not have a fulfilling life during the past half month.

Now that Zhou Qiang is back, it feels like everyone has received a shot of adrenaline.

Everyone appeared at the gate of the community where the camp was located for the first time.

Roland, Mu Xiaoyue, Zhao Manman, Shui Minmin...all the women looked at Zhou Qiang with tears in their eyes.

His eyes were full of resentment.

Behind these women were Mo Yi, Lu Xingye and their group.

They had smiles on their faces and truly welcomed Zhou Qiang's return with all their heart.

There is no such thing as ambition.

Having seen Zhou Qiang's strength, even if they had a hundred courages, they would not dare to do anything small when Zhou Qiang was not around.

Anyone who makes small moves is a fool.

Being able to follow such a big boss will be their greatest blessing in the end times.

"boss!"

The moment they saw Zhou Qiang, Mo Yi and the others shouted in unison.

Zhou Qiang smiled.

"Okay, everyone, stop doing all this nonsense. It makes me look like a gangster who just got out of prison."

After Zhou Qiang said this, everyone else started laughing.

"Everyone, have a good meal, and then we will set off to Hanzhong City."

Everyone in the camp cheered.

The so-called good meal.

In this doomsday, Zhou Qiang believes that fresh ingredients are the key.

Took out the meat and some vegetables.

It was just a simple dish cooked in a big pot, but it made everyone full.

“It feels good to follow the boss.”

"Anyway, I'm determined to follow my boss for the rest of my life. As long as he doesn't chase me away, I will definitely not leave."

"I am willing to be the boss's most loyal dog."

"Bah, I suggest you take back that rude and servile remark and let me say it instead."

"Do you have any shame? If anything, it should be me who should do it."

The satisfied group quickly cleaned up the camp.

Just half an hour.

Just pack up everything and load it into the car.

The convoy stayed here for half a month and then set off again.

Dozens of cars, huge and mighty.

Zhou Qiang’s goal at this stop is to break through to become a seventh-level transcendent.

What we lack now is this special genetic fluid from the weeping willow.

This should be the genetic fluid produced after the virus is mutated. Only in this way can humans evolve again.

The higher the level, the more stringent the conditions for breakthrough.

It’s been so long since we came to the apocalypse.

But there are still too many things in this world that cannot be explored.

Mainly closed.

A zone can only communicate within this zone.

There are currently no survivors who can span multiple areas.

The information is blocked, making it difficult for the survivors to learn much.

"After reaching level seven, I should be strong enough to look around."

Zhou Qiang was thinking.

By then, riding the flying dragon zombie across areas will only take one or two hours.

Start looking for more secrets of the end of the world.

Sitting in the car, Zhou Qiang turned on his personal smart terminal.

The current network has been connected to Hanzhong City.

Zhou Qiang only needs to pay attention to some active groups here.

Just search randomly and you can find the group belonging to Hanzhong City.

Some are not available.

But a lot is open.

The source of information can almost be obtained through these groups.

Zhou Qiang tried to join a group with tens of thousands of people.

Since it is open, the application is automatically approved.

Countless chat records in it almost gushed out.

"Sometimes, having too many people is not a good thing."

Zhou Qiang smiled bitterly.

Pause this information.

Zhou Qiang read it bit by bit.

Half an hour later.

The convoy stopped.

Hanzhong City is also a relatively developed city.

Coupled with the large population of Dragon Country, it is truly difficult to move forward in the end times.

Like now, the reason why the convoy stopped is that there is a densely populated town ahead that needs to be passed.

If that were all, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Rather, this important town has been turned into a forest.

In just a few years, deforestation has reached an extremely serious level.

In the past, skyscrapers and buildings could only exist in the cracks.

Some trees even grow inside buildings, squeezing them apart.

"Boss, something's wrong."

"There isn't a single zombie, but I have a strong feeling that there is danger here."

Roland frowned, not daring to take it lightly.

"Don't worry, this place is different from what you think."

"In fact, as long as you know the type of plant zombies, you will understand that there are zombies everywhere here."

Zhou Qiang's words made Roland feel a little puzzled.

Plant zombies?

She had never left Binhai City, so she really didn't know about the existence of plant zombies.

Zhou Qiang nodded.

He is familiar with plant zombies.

The convoy stopped and Zhou Qiang got out of the car.

He took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth and lit it.

After taking a deep breath, he stared at this place.

The plant zombies in this small town have evolved thoroughly.

It's no longer like the rough stuff it was at the beginning.

"Wait here. I'll show you some zombies you haven't seen before."

Zhou Qiang smiled.

He thought about it, gave Roland the telescope, and pointed it into the town.

"If you look closely, you'll find the problem."

Roland nodded, and she took the telescope and carefully observed the town.

People like Mo Yi were also observing with telescopes.

Soon, they took a breath of cold air.

"this……"

What they saw was so shocking to them.

At first glance, it does look like a forest, covering the town.

But if you look closely through a telescope, you will find differences between these plants.

You can actually see human faces on each tree.

It seemed as if a person was embedded in the tree trunk.

This is terrifying.

It gives people a creepy feeling.

The combination of humans and plants breaks through people’s imagination of the end of the world.

There are various kinds of human faces on these tree trunks.

There are old people.

There are children and adults.

There are men and women.

Some of them even closed their eyes, as if they were sleeping soundly.

But some of them are looking around with their eyes open.

It is hard to imagine how such a species could exist.

Roland and the others all had sweaty palms.

The unknown makes them feel bad.

Zhou Qiang just smiled and said nothing, but directly activated the [Levitation Technique].

People instantly floated towards this small town.

Facing these woods, Zhou Qiang did not use his ultimate move, but instead split his arms into tentacles.

The tentacles shot out.

It went straight into a tree.

I saw that the bark of this tree instantly formed several faces, and these faces were distorted.

Like a ghost that has been dead for who knows how many years.

They are hideous and terrifying.

Then the branch moved, whipping its tentacles towards him.

Zhou Qiang remained unmoved, and his tentacles turned into finger knives.

Like a wood twister.

The tree was instantly crushed to pieces by Zhou Qiang.

Wood chips and blood splattered.

Looks horrified.

A third-level plant zombie.

They can't hurt Zhou Qiang.

To be honest, this kind of zombies definitely refreshed Roland and his friends' understanding.

All I can say is, this world is crazy.

There is simply nothing strange.

Zhou Qiang did not stop and released [Death Storm].

A fan-shaped flame appeared and sprayed forward.

The plant zombies that were covered were directly burned to ashes.

After becoming plant zombies, their defense and attack power are enhanced.

But there is a downside, which is that they are fixed.

Became a defensive zombie.

The places where they have taken root are currently inaccessible to humans.

But what is certain is that when humans grow up, the least threatening thing may be plant zombies.

Because they are fixed.

Only plant zombies of a certain level are scary.

For example, when it comes to the level of the weeping willow.

In fact, the weeping willow is not the same as the tree god.

The tree god has reached the ninth level, and can be said to be the strongest type of zombie Zhou Qiang has ever seen.

It covers the entire city and can secrete a special substance that can confuse people's minds, making them submit to it and become its slaves.

And these humans are actually its food.

But it will only eat it slowly, not all at once.

From this point of view, it seems that the tree god is intelligent?

Zhou Qiang is still a little confused about what kind of changes will occur when humans and plants are combined.

For example, generating intelligence?

Under the release of the [Death Storm], this place turned into a sea of ​​fire.

But the town is very big, and Zhou Qiang’s efforts alone are far from effective.

"You can try to kill them."

Zhou Qiang turned around.

"The highest level here is level 4, so be careful. I can't hurt you."

With Zhou Qiang's words.

Those who are above level four extraordinary beings are all ready to make a move.

The members of the Violet Team, as well as Mu Xiaoyue and the others, all possess very strong combat capabilities.

All of them are moved.

Mu Xiaoyue took the lead.

She knew how to levitate, so she imitated Zhou Qiang and flew into the air, appearing above the town.

She used the genes of the Death Doctor.

I saw that her arms, like Zhou Qiang's, split into tentacles.

The tentacles burst out and slammed into a tree.

Blood suddenly gushed out of the tree, and distorted human faces appeared on the trunk.

But Mu Xiaoyue remained unmoved. She used her tentacles to exert force, and with tremendous strength, she tore the tree into pieces.
