Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

"Isn’t Grape Valley just an ordinary place? Why do the zombies gather there... or did something happen later?"

Zhang Su tightened his quilt. It was already late, but he couldn’t sleep. Thoughts swirled in his mind, and he quickly recalled the second piece of news.

Compared to the zombie horde in Grape Valley, Zhang Su was more concerned about the second news because it came from a camp in Beihai District, involving intelligence related to the sea!

Water Bear Survivor Organization reports: A strange spherical object is floating several kilometers off Pigeon Nest Beach, about the size of a regular SUV, irregularly releasing blue arcs of electricity, affecting a range of over a hundred meters. Not noticeable during the day, at night it resembles a nightclub light ball. Due to the coastline being frozen, it’s impossible to go out to sea and investigate the specifics.

The message is not complicated, just an unknown object appeared outside Pigeon Nest Beach. Zhang Su didn’t know what it was, but the location was right on the route leading from land to Fu Weijun’s laboratory!

If it’s just some human facility lost at sea, it’s no big deal, but if it’s related to this disaster, then it’s not simple.

Although there’s no concrete evidence linking the zombie transformation to other civilizations, a consensus has basically been reached among most people on Celestial Horse Island that the disaster was caused by other civilizations; we just don’t know where this civilization came from.

It could be from an alien planet or from the Earth’s core; in any case, it’s definitely not humanity itself, at least not the human technology of this era.

If it’s a product of another civilization, then it’s intriguing!

Unfortunately, it’s too difficult for people to venture out to sea right now. Even if they could, based on the intelligence, the arcs of electricity affect over a hundred meters of sea area, likely causing harm to ships and people. Getting close would require a plan!

Anyway, this is very important intelligence. No matter how you look at it, this ball is a valuable item, and if there’s a chance, we must find a way to acquire it!

"Can’t let Fu Weijun know about this news, or he’ll definitely go crazy..."

Zhang Su couldn’t help but shake his head, lightly rubbing his fingers against the notebook.

Fu Weijun is already obsessed with those high-end devices in the lab. If he finds out about the seemingly otherworldly creation appearing at sea, he might roll himself to the seashore in his wheelchair...

Aside from Fu Weijun’s unrealistic impulse, Zhang Su himself has been contemplating the idea of going out to sea. Whether to better utilize the zombies or to delve deeper into the study of zombie transformation, it requires the involvement of advanced equipment.

And for now, the only confirmed place with such equipment is Fu Weijun’s laboratory on the island.

"Ships are easy to handle, but finding the right opportunity is hard..."

Zhang Su turned over, and immediately remembered the last piece of special intelligence.

Back in Qing County, for the first time he received radio signals sent from other Survivor Camps in cities, Tang City Righteous Dao Association, he didn’t expect that Liao Youzhi had also been in contact with them in Qin City.

A month ago, specific dates were not recorded, a Righteous Dao Association expedition team crossed regions from Tang City to Qin City.

According to Liao Youzhi’s recorded intelligence, the Righteous Dao Association expedition team was seeking information about the Survivor Camps in Qin City, while extending the olive branch to the Survivor Alliance, hoping Liao Youzhi would lead people to join the Righteous Dao Association and completely abandon Qin City!

According to the expedition team’s rhetoric, Tang City is an old industrial city, indispensable for the revival of human technology, so they hope to rally people from surrounding cities, concentrating in Tang City for joint development, which is far better than tourism cities like Qin City or Cheng City.

Since the Survivor Alliance is still in Qin City, it can be confirmed that Liao Youzhi did not agree to the Righteous Dao Association’s invitation back then.

If it weren’t for this unexpected event, Zhang Su believed the Righteous Dao Association would have continued to recruit various forces in Qin City. Unfortunately, the current situation is grim, with the hundreds of kilometers between the two locations making reestablishing contact difficult.

As fellow humans, if the Righteous Dao Association’s development philosophy is truly healthy and can create a comfortable environment for survivors, Zhang Su feels conflicted, both thankful and vaguely annoyed.

Unconsciously, his mindset has changed, growing from a survival team of two or three into a crew, gradually becoming the leader of four or five hundred people, earning respect and praise from subordinates. To truly let go of achievements built with one’s own hands...

It’s not just reluctance, it’s genuine reluctance!

"Power really is something great, irresistible, huh."

Zhang Su isn’t someone who shies away from responsibility; he’s aware of his inner changes.

"Why worry so much, really overthinking!"

Comforting himself with this thought, based on the current intelligence, the Righteous Dao Association is indeed large, but Celestial Horse Island’s development is also good. Rather than worrying about infiltration and encroachment from other forces, the rampant ordinary zombies and the giant brute ones are currently the biggest challenges!

"The methods against zombies need updating; if Xiaochen’s special circumstances become widespread and controllable..."

"What exactly is that thing at sea, Dr. Fu’s laboratory... Is there anybody going there?"

"The energy system on Celestial Horse Island needs updating..."

"Hey, hubby, what’s going on with Xiaochen, what did you guys talk about?"

Zhang Su was lost in wild thoughts when suddenly he heard a voice from behind, startling him.

"Whoa, weren’t you asleep?"
