Chapter 253 Chief Steward Wang is dispatched
After Qingyu left, Cheng Shenghong's expression also turned somewhat unpleasant.
Han Shuo stepped forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said.
"Brother Yao Nan, you should stay here and wait for news for now."
"We need to get the situation in the zombie city accurate before we can decide whether to evacuate from here."
Cheng Shenghong nodded; his thoughts were the same as Han Shuo's and the others'.
If that legion of death really was after the underground research institute, then he would have left without hesitation.
At present, Han Shuo has nothing else to do. All that's left is to patiently wait for Qing Yu's feedback.
He asked, "By the way, Brother Demon, I haven't asked how your trip went. Is everyone alright?"
Cheng Shenghong didn't think much of it and replied with a smile.
"Well, it went fairly smoothly. We got back the day before yesterday."
"We didn't find many supplies outside, but we did hunt down a few alien species."
"Although three of my brothers were seriously injured, thankfully they all came back alive."
At this point, Cheng Shenghong stood up, bowed deeply to Han Shuo, and continued.
"We have to thank Brother Han for the weapons you gave us. If we weren't fully equipped, I'm afraid half of us would have died out there."
Han Shuo smiled and helped him sit down again.
"Brother Yao Nan, we are both allies and friends, so there's no need to be so polite."
Cheng Shenghong's team suffered no casualties, which is the best outcome.
Han Shuo had always known that there were no genetically modified humans in their team, but with the weapons he had given them, plus the fact that each of the 13 people was skilled in martial arts, they were definitely superior to most of the people here.
It can be said that, now fully armed, their overall strength is no less than that of the ordinary guards in the underground research institute.
Even in terms of wilderness survival, they are slightly better.
After all, Cheng Shenghong and his 13 men had survived for so long on their own, which was definitely not just due to luck.
They have a wealth of experience...
Afterwards, everyone gathered together to chat and reminisce with Cheng Shenghong.
Han Shuo sat to the side, silently thinking to himself.
"Since Brother Yaonan and the others have also successfully hunted down the alien species, he must be a genetically engineered human now."
...
On the other side, after leaving Han Shuo, Qing Yu quickly found Steward Wang and said that she had important information and wanted to see the director.
Seeing his serious expression and knowing Qingyu's character well, Manager Wang took him directly to meet the director.
There were only three people in the director's office at this moment:
Yue Zongyang, Wang Zhen, Qingyu.
Qingyu reported the situation in the zombie city to the two of them in a straight line.
After he finished speaking, Yue Zongyang frowned and stood up from his chair.
"Qingyu, did you witness what you're telling us?"
Qingyu dared not hide anything and quickly replied.
"Chief, one of my brothers told me this. His name is Han Shuo, and he's a free agent here."
"Although I didn't witness it myself, I trust this man's character, and I believe this story is absolutely credible!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Zongyang let out a soft "hmm".
"Han Shuo?"
He vaguely remembered that Wang Zhen had mentioned this name before.
Without much thought, he nodded and continued.
"Alright, Qingyu, I understand about this. I will make arrangements as soon as possible. You can go out now."
Qingyu still had many questions in her mind, but after hesitating for a moment, she ultimately didn't say anything more.
"Yes, Chief! I understand!"
He gave a standard military salute, then turned and left the room.
...
After Qingyu left, Steward Wang spoke with a serious expression.
"Chief, it seems the zombie king is about to make its move!"
"Sigh, yes, he's here..."
Yue Zongyang sighed.
His eyes suddenly became unfocused, as if he were recalling an old story.
The room fell silent until Steward Wang broke the silence first.
He vaguely sensed that a great battle was about to begin, and as the strongest force here at the moment, he knew he had to do something.
"Chief, the weather outside is terrible right now. The zombie king knows that our satellites are being interfered with, which is why it dares to appear so close to us."
"Our other detection methods, all of which were deployed around the underground research institute due to their limited detection range, are also ineffective at this time."
"So send me! Send me to gather information!"
Yue Zongyang turned to look at Steward Wang and spoke.
“Wang Zhen, I know all that you’re saying, but…”
"Chief!!"
Manager Wang shouted loudly, interrupting Yue Zongyang, despite his usual strict adherence to discipline.
"Chief! I know I'm in danger, but at this moment, do you expect me to do nothing?"
He gradually became agitated because this matter concerned the lives of everyone in the underground research institute.
"Chief! As you know, the information Qingyu mentioned is far from enough for us right now!"
"Only by going there in person can I accurately ascertain all the information!"
"If we can't even accurately confirm the number of alien species on the zombie king's side, how can we deal with it? How can we make preparations in advance?"
“As you said last time, after I became a level 6 genetically engineered human, I already had the means to protect myself when facing the zombie king.”
"And this time, I'm just scouting the area; I won't get close to him. Trust me, I'll be fine!"
...
Every word that Steward Wang spoke came from the bottom of his heart; this time, he didn't want the director to refuse his request.
Yue Zongyang knew that what Wang Zhen said was true. At this moment, he had to send someone to find out the details of the zombie king's situation in order to make better arrangements for the next step.
And this best candidate is standing right in front of him right now.
Yue Zongyang remained silent for a while before finally agreeing.
"Alright, go and prepare. Remember, this mission is just reconnaissance! No matter the outcome, your own life is your top priority!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Steward Wang couldn't hide his joy. He bowed deeply and turned to leave.
"Yes, Director! I will definitely be back safely within two days!"
Yue Zongyang watched Wang Zhen's departing figure, feeling somewhat melancholy.
He believed in Wang Zhen's ability to protect himself, but he couldn't help feeling worried.
The next second, he remembered something else.
He turned and walked to the screen, his fingers rapidly tapping the controls.
Soon, he retrieved some information:
Han Shuo, a free agent, a genetically evolved human at level 3...
Yue Zongyang stared at the information on the screen, his interest piqued.
"Oh? This person's team actually includes three genetically engineered humans?"
"To be able to lead the team to this level on my own is something that is absolutely unique among all free agents."
"This person... has potential!"
