Chapter 624 There's no limit to how sneaky you can be.
However, Han Shuo still did not directly agree to Hank's request.
Being vigilant, he needed to confirm it with his own eyes.
After all, there are still so many submarines on the sea surface, and the people inside have not yet shown up. Whether the situation is as Hank said is obvious at a glance.
It's not impossible that there might be a fully armed combat team hiding inside, with other malicious intentions...
He began, "Hank, prove the story to us."
...
"good!"
Hank replied decisively, knowing the meaning behind Han Shuo's words, and turned around to wave to his men behind him.
"Tell everyone to come out of the submarine."
"yes!"
One of his men quickly replied and hurriedly climbed down the hillside and shouted from the rocks.
...
Soon, Han Shuo and his three companions saw the engine rooms of submarines on the sea surface opening one after another.
Immediately afterwards, many, many ragged survivors emerged from inside.
"Hmm? There are quite a few people here."
Han Shuo sighed inwardly and roughly counted that this organization, which had been hiding in the seabed for so long, had a total of more than 3,000 people.
This shows that the factory Hank worked at before was indeed quite large.
He also found that the majority of these people were young, while the rest were middle-aged and elderly.
There were no young children among them, a situation that does indeed somewhat match the description given by the factory workers.
...
About 20 minutes later, everyone had climbed up the hillside.
When they saw Han Shuo and his group of four, their faces were filled with curiosity.
At the same time, their eyes were filled with fear when they saw the nearby zombie corpses.
Having read this far, Han Shuo knew that Hank was not lying.
After all, this kind of expression isn't something that can be easily faked.
In particular, all of these people were pale and thin, clearly showing signs of malnutrition. Some of the elderly even coughed incessantly, looking like they were suffering from a serious illness.
...
At this moment, the fat man standing to the side couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart.
Look, look!
What does "苟" mean? This is what "苟" means, isn't it?
Compared to the others, he really felt that he was incredibly weak before.
These 3,000-plus people in front of me have been hiding for three years...
They survived the virus outbreak, the endless zombies, and even the onslaught of nuclear radiation.
Although everyone looks sickly and is extremely weak at this moment, at least they are still alive!
Now, is there anything more important than one's own life?
...
Seeing that Han Shuo had not yet responded to his request, Hank asked again anxiously.
"Well, young man, I really didn't lie. Can we join your organization?"
"The men under my command really can no longer live in the submarine."
This time, Han Shuo didn't hesitate and nodded with a smile at Hank.
"No problem, I do know a guy who will shelter all human survivors."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hank excitedly grasped Han Shuo's hands.
"Very good!"
...
Han Shuo agreed to Hank's request because there was something to gain from it.
First of all, he believed that such a large number of skilled workers would definitely be a great help to Qingyu.
But most importantly, he had his eye on the submarine in Hank's possession.
You should know that there are a lot of strange creatures in the far west.
Han Shuo was especially intrigued by those unknown, complex combinations of organisms that they had never seen before.
If he could, he would have taken Feng there long ago to collect the turbid liquid, but unfortunately, there is a large sea area between the two places.
This sea area is extremely vast, and even using a hang glider, it is not something that can be reached in a short time.
Moreover, with the four silver-haired people dead, they could no longer take precautions against the danger of the swarm of corpse birds while they were in the air.
In such circumstances, even with strong winds, one would not dare to fly continuously for several hours over a vast ocean using a hang glider.
Of course, what he feared was not the flock of corpse birds, but the possibility that during an aerial battle, he might accidentally fall into the sea and his glider would be unable to deploy again.
After all, he couldn't breathe in seawater. In such a vast ocean, even a genetically evolved human at level 9 couldn't escape the risk of drowning...
...
Today, upon seeing that Hank and his group possessed a submarine, Han Shuo immediately recalled this incident.
Since the hang glider is unusable at this moment, isn't a submarine the best tool for crossing the sea?
This is much safer than ordinary boats; once submerged in the sea, there's no need to worry about those carrion birds anymore...
As for whether or not it will be open, that's a minor issue.
Now, all four of them have received brain enhancement, and it can be said that their learning ability as genetically evolved humans at level 5 is absolutely unmatched by ordinary people.
In this situation, if Hank sends someone to teach them, they might be able to grasp most of it in just one session.
...
Looking at the excited Hank in front of him, Han Shuo smiled and added another sentence.
"I will tell you the safe rendezvous point, but you have to leave me a submarine."
"Um?"
Hank snapped out of his daze and let out a soft, curious "hmm."
"You want our submarine?"
Although he was puzzled, he didn't ask any further questions and readily answered.
"no problem!"
Han Shuo nodded and extended his arm to shake hands with Hank.
And so, the two sides completed the transaction amicably.
...
Next, Xiao Zhao took out a spare map, intending to mark the target location for Hank and his group.
But no sooner had the map been taken out than a sudden change occurred!
Perhaps the crowd had lingered in one place for too long, or perhaps there were too many people on the hillside.
The next moment, a flock of corpse birds appeared on the horizon behind them.
Han Shuo suddenly turned his head and raised his eyebrows slightly.
He wasn't panicked at all, because he saw that the flock of corpse birds wasn't very large, probably only a few hundred...
"Hmm... this number shouldn't be too difficult to deal with."
However, while he was thinking so casually, Hank and his group were terrified.
They were afraid of ordinary zombies, let alone these even more troublesome zombie birds.
...
"Run! Run! Everyone, get back into the submarine right now!"
Hank shouted anxiously, then turned and led everyone in a frantic retreat.
They ran, but Han Shuo and the other three remained standing in the same spot.
He slowly drew his Tang sword from his waist, ready for battle.
The fat man, on the other hand, planted his large axe on the ground and excitedly rolled up his sleeves.
Because his moment to show off had arrived!
