#216 - Chapter 216: Captain Li Becomes Stronger
Night.
The lively scene outside the base subsided.
The survivors all returned to their residential areas or other places outside to rest.
Now, being a construction worker at the branch base has become the envy of other survivors.
It not only includes food, with rice and dishes, but also provides extra food subsidies after a full week of work.
More importantly, the work area is surrounded by protective barriers to intercept zombies, and Green Source Base personnel are stationed with guns to protect safety.
The attraction is quite strong.
Compared to other survivors who still have to venture out to find supplies and occasionally escape from zombies, the work of building a branch base is definitely enviable.
This afternoon, the base began to screen out those who didn't work hard and tried to slack off.
The treatment of these people is also very simple.
As long as they are found deliberately slacking off or engaging in other behaviors that affect progress during work, they will first receive a warning.
If they do it again.
Sorry.
Then go back to where you came from.
There are plenty of survivors outside willing to come to the branch base to work!
Today, more than a dozen survivors who slacked off during work were dismissed. These people may be used to slacking off at work (like me), thinking of various slacking-off operations during the construction process.
Then they were seen through by Wang Yang and other experienced veterans in the workplace.
After a warning, they still continued.
Regardless of how they cried and begged afterwards, the managers resolutely eliminated these people.
It also let the people who stayed see the difference in the world now, and not to hold on to the old ways.
If you want to continue working and have food to eat, then seriously complete the assigned tasks.
In the office.
Qin Jin was still reviewing the itinerary for Wang Bin and the combat team's departure to Zhu City tomorrow.
This time he will not go with them, and plans to hand it over to his subordinates to handle.
When the time is right, he may take a helicopter to check the situation.
Just as he was staring at the information thinking, the door was knocked.
"Come in."
He was not annoyed by the interruption of his thoughts, and said calmly.
The office door was not locked, and the person knocking on the door quickly walked in.
It was Li Bowen.
Qin Jin was a little surprised.
"Bowen, what's the matter?"
He didn't expect Li Bowen to come over.
After Li Bowen came in, he closed the door, walked up to Qin Jin, stared into his eyes, and after a while, he said:
"President Qin, I seem to have become stronger."
Huh!?
Qin Jin was stunned.
He stood up, also staring into Li Bowen's eyes, wanting to see something in his eyes.
The latter did not avoid him, and continued to utter the following words.
"In the past few days, I have found that my strength has been increasing."
After he finished speaking, he did not continue to speak, as if waiting for Qin Jin's next instruction.
The office became quiet.
After about five seconds, Qin Jin walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said to him:
"Come with me."
After speaking, without waiting for Li Bowen to speak, he took the lead to walk towards the door, and then came to the gym next door.
Pointing to one of the barbells full of barbell plates, he said to Captain Li, who followed behind:
"Try it, see how strong you have become."
His tone was relatively calm. This barbell, when added together, weighs about 500kg. Of course, it was a piece of cake for him, but it was an incredible weight for an ordinary person.
Li Bowen didn't waste any words, he went directly to the barbell, chose a position, shook his hands to find the feel, and then lifted it up with force!
Whoa!
The entire barbell was lifted up smoothly!
The steel bar in the middle was bent by the heavy objects hanging on both sides, and Li Bowen stood in the middle steadily holding it up, the scene looked extremely shocking.
In this process, he still had time to speak:
"How long do I have to hold it up?"
Qin Jin shook his head and waved to him to put the barbell down.
He saw Li Bowen walk over after putting down the thing, raised his right hand and pinched his arm, he could feel the solid and tight terrifying muscle content in it.
That's right.
"You have indeed evolved and become stronger."
"And it is a strength evolution, your body should be much stronger than ordinary people now, I will talk to the cafeteria later, you eat more, you should continue to become stronger in the near future, try to supplement more nutrition."
"Don't worry, Lin Zhijie is also an evolver, he is a speed-type leg evolution, there is no harm, in this doomsday, having stronger power is only beneficial."
He patted Li Bowen's arm and continued to communicate with him about some details and experiences of becoming stronger.
In addition to the significant increase in the strength of his arms, Li's body became stronger, and other parts also had some improvement.
It is indeed a standard arm strength evolver.
According to the information learned in his previous life, his strength will be increased to the range of 700-900kg in the future.
So-so.
Of course, this is for Qin Jin.
In fact, under this power, dealing with ordinary people and ordinary zombies is definitely a one-punch kill!
About half an hour passed, after explaining some precautions and details to Li, he let him leave.
I hope he can continue to become stronger in the future.
He was not too surprised about the appearance of evolvers in his base.
The Green Source Base has such good food, coupled with long-term exercise, he would find it strange if no evolvers appeared.
Although he has not yet figured out the reason for the appearance of evolvers in humans, but recently he has been studying virology and biology, combined with some of his own evolutionary experiences, he can roughly guess some things.
After the formal start of the experiment, I believe it will not be too long before he will uncover part of the veil of evolution.
Watching Li Bowen leave, Qin Jin returned to his office.
He lit a cigarette and started smoking.
He was quite happy that Li Bowen could take the initiative to report his evolution to him, indicating that this captain was loyal to the base and recognized him as the leader.
He also told Li not to hide the fact that he had evolved and become stronger, it didn't matter if other combat team members knew, they could cooperate better during missions.
After burning a cigarette in a few mouthfuls,
He exhaled all the smoke from his lungs, and then continued to focus on the team going out tomorrow.
A night without words.
*****
The next day.
Today is another good day. After entering spring, it is completely bright at 6:30.
People have been coming to the branch base one after another to start today's construction work. Every day, the Green Source Base will send cars to pick up and drop off the survivors in the residential area, and a small number of others who are farther away need to come by themselves.
In the isolation area of the base.
A huge convoy is ready.
They are nearly 12 original combat team members led by Li Bowen and Zhang Tiankai, as well as 20 newly recruited field personnel, and Wang Bin and other five or six original base technicians and new survivors who were brought in to help set up defenses.
The entire team has fifty or sixty people!
There are also twelve vehicles!
Two riot police cars, two oil tankers, and eight heavy trucks and trucks.
With the expansion of the base, it is now easy to mobilize more personnel than in the past.
In the riot police car, seeing that the team was ready, Li Bowen gave an order, and the entire convoy drove out of the opened base gate and headed outside.
"Damn! That's the Green Source Base convoy!? They are all modified cars! Where are they going!?"
Many survivors busy at the branch base saw the departing convoy and exclaimed in surprise.
Most of them saw such a convoy in the doomsday for the first time.
Only those original base personnel knew that once this scene appeared, it meant that the Green Source Base was setting out again!
