Xia Country can now basically maintain food and clothing for the entire population, and the hunting teams are hunting zombies all year round, and even have to face attacks from mutated animals and plants at all times. This is already very hard.
Your life is always hanging by your belt, so how can you endure hardship?
It is only natural to issue tasks and settle rewards.
"Secretary Lin." The director called his most capable secretary. He suspected that someone spread such remarks with the purpose of making a profit from them.
I don’t know if any of them were underpaid.

"Where are we going next?"
At this time, Si Ming was having a video chat with Jiang Li.
He wanted to come here to date Jiang Li, but who knew that he wouldn't be able to meet her at all in such a short time.
One is in the eastern base and the other is in the central base. The two bases are about 1,500 kilometers apart.
Under normal circumstances, a flight would take about two hours, and a drive would take one or two days.
But now is the end of the world, and these 1,500 kilometers are almost a natural barrier.
It is more despairing than the Milky Way of the Queen Mother.
At least, relying solely on a team would take at least ten days to half a month.
If we encounter a zombie siege or an attack by mutated plants and animals, the timeline will be extended.
As for the jungle group competition held every three years, some people can actually survive the competition, but because it is basically a large number of teams going on the road together, the survival rate is higher.
When Siming saw Jiang Li, he thought that maybe he could take his team to look for him, but he was too embarrassed to ask others for help.
Of course, this idea is just a thought, and you can't go.
Si Ming's team is ranked among the top five in terms of combat effectiveness in the Eastern Base. They have a lot of tasks on hand and have no time to waste.
"Take a rest for two days and go to Miancheng."
Jiang Li drank half a cup of coffee and felt a little hungry.
He looked around in the kitchen and called out, "Lao Guo, get me something to eat. I'm hungry."
"A zombie gathering place was discovered in Cotton City and needs to be taken down."
Upon hearing the news, Si Ming's expression became a little solemn.
"Gathering point?" This was definitely not good news. "What specific location is it?"
Jiang Li told Si Ming the general direction.
I asked the team members for a map and looked for the location on it.
At the same time, I was typing and looking up information.
"Bolchin Lake." Si Ming said: "This location is also considered the heart of Miancheng. You said it is a gathering point, plus the surrounding environment of this location, Jiang Li..."
"Well, I can probably guess." Jiang Li nodded calmly without waiting for him to finish, "It should be the birth of wisdom."
“Crash—”
Jiang Li turned around and saw the spatula in Lao Guo's hand fell to the ground with a harsh sound.
Of course, the sound on the video side is not pleasant either.
"wisdom?"
Old Guo looked at Jiang Li in astonishment, "Boss, are you saying that zombies have gained intelligence?"
Jiang Li hummed, "What's so strange about that? It's only a matter of time."
Seeing that Jiang Li didn't show any surprise, Lao Guo felt mixed emotions.
"Boss, do you know how much of an impact this news will have on others once it gets out?"
Zombies are mindless walking corpses, but precisely because they have no mind, they are relatively easy to deal with.
Without organization, we are just a mess.
No matter how many there are, as long as humans have enough hot weapons, they will all be killed sooner or later.
But now the boss says that zombies might have developed consciousness?
This news is no less shocking than the moment when the world ends.
Things that he thought only existed in literary and artistic works or even film and television works suddenly came to him without any warning.
It’s so scary to think about it that it makes me feel mentally confused.
The zombies have become intelligent, and the horror of this is self-evident.
Once that kind of undead monster has a leader, the degree of danger it poses will be drastically different.
Even at the level of destruction.
In recent years, the hunting teams from the five major bases have been constantly hunting zombies, as well as mutated plants and animals.
But the total amount of those things is too much. In the continent where Xia Country is located, the various mutated species added together are simply impossible to count.
If it is simply a mutated species of animals and plants, it can still give people room to breathe.
But the number of zombies...
At least one billion.
In the past ten years, the number of hunting groups has been a drop in the bucket compared to the total number...
In short, all kinds of adjectives with huge differences can be used together.
"Boss, according to what you said, there might be intelligent species among those zombies in the west?"
Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Isn't this obvious? Otherwise, where do you think these zombies that appeared came from?"
It can't possibly come out of thin air.
There are no more people living to the west of the central base. All that remains are broken walls and endless emptiness.
There are zombies in the westernmost desert, but they are at least a thousand kilometers away from the central base.
Although zombies are tireless, their physical toughness is limited. In addition, they have lost all their senses, leaving only a more acute sense of smell.
Unless humans deliberately lure these things here, there is no way they can cross two thousand miles to find us.
Lao Guo is not stupid, and he can figure things out to some extent.
"So what should we do now? We might as well just kill everything over there."
It is still a bit difficult to kill them all, but if you can kill 90% of them, it won’t be a big problem.
If one big flower goes down, a large area will disappear.
Add more big flowers...
He was just thinking about it. The specific outcome would depend on the decision of the five base chiefs and the pillars of the Xia Kingdom.
Lao Guo also knew that the higher-ups were reluctant to give it up.
It's not that I can't bear to see the big flowers.
Now the five major bases are working hard to develop vaccines, trying to find effective drugs to eliminate this vaccine and save those hundreds of millions...
What if it can be recovered?
What if?
That’s 700 to 800 million... lives.
Who dares to press the destruction button?
It’s unimaginable to really face that kind of scene.
"Are you coming?" Jiang Li asked.
Old Guo's face trembled, he turned around, picked up the spatula without saying a word, and continued to prepare food for Jiang Li.
Is he coming?
How did he come?
His life is worthless and cannot bear such a heavy decision.
and……
Among those species, there are his parents, and even... his lover.
"Tell them to recuperate during these days. When the time comes, I will notify you one day in advance."
Jiang Li stood at the entrance and said, "Don't make a fuss these days. Divide into teams and guard the gates of the four bases first."
Lao Guo watched the egg white in the pot solidify little by little, and the fragrance wafted into his nostrils.
"Where are we going to eat in the next few days, Boss?"
"Lao Yang Noodle House."
