#588 - Chapter 588 Like a Good Person

After inspecting the development of the base's cannery, Qin Jin walked along the main base road, contemplating the base's personnel issues.

After a moment's thought, he decided to slow down the absorption of new survivors from outside into Green Source.

He could first use the Level 2 personnel from the large residential area and some Level 1 personnel from the small residential area to assist those Level 3 personnel dispatched outside.

The entire Green Source area had over 2,000 personnel, and only three to four hundred had been sent out to set up trading points in various cities, which was still manageable at the moment.

Once more construction projects at the Life Zone and base headquarters were completed, more manpower could be drawn out to assist outside.

In his mind, the headquarters had to retain at least fifteen hundred people daily to facilitate responses to possible dangers.

Modern warfare was about information and weapons; sometimes, more people didn't necessarily mean stronger strength.

It's worth mentioning that in the past half-month, the combat units dispatched had successively brought back seven or eight various helicopters and several tanks and armored vehicles!

They had emptied two armories acquired before the apocalypse!

They had retrieved almost all the relatively easily accessible armaments near Guangnan Province!

People outside had no idea that during this time, the combat units were going out, and what terrifying modern weapons and ammunition were hidden under the tarpaulins covering the heavy trucks on their return trips!

Because the base was developing rapidly recently, transport vehicles came and went every day, transporting trade goods from various cities outside.

These retrieved armaments would not seem conspicuous.

Only some people within the base knew that Green Source's size and foundation were becoming increasingly powerful!

Even an airship had been retrieved again!

At this moment, within the Green Source base, there were three airships, eleven commercial helicopters, two military armed helicopters, three tanks, thirteen armored vehicles, and various heavy artillery, mortars, anti-aircraft guns, rocket launchers, and heavy machine guns!

And hundreds of millions of bullets!

The ammunition consumed by the previous zombie tide had been completely replenished by this wave of retrieved supplies!

However, to accommodate so many large pieces of military equipment, Qin Jin once again ordered personnel to start expanding the area specifically used for parking airplanes, tanks, vehicles, and other transportation.

A large area had been reserved when planning the Life Zone, and now was the time to use it.

It would only be necessary to build the surrounding wall again to complete this area dedicated to parking large machinery.

Some simple repair rooms and tool warehouses could be built inside, without the need for accommodation.

Security personnel on the wall would also be assigned to look after this area.

Undoubtedly, the entire Green Source base was continuing to expand and grow stronger.

As for the finer aspects, for example, the laboratory had also made new breakthroughs!

Zhou Qihang had said in the past two days that he had found the key and was about to decipher the mysterious substance D protein!

Which meant that Qin Jin's personal evolution might soon have new progress!

Recently, there had been a series of good news, keeping Qin Jin busy and happy.

The current state of the base he had worked hard to build was something he never dared to imagine at the beginning.

At this time, Green Source's tentacles extended and influenced several surrounding cities.

Although it couldn't be described as control, it was almost the case that survivors in those cities knew that there was such a powerful base open for various transactions.

This was a ray of light in the apocalypse.

Of course, Green Source's reputation wasn't that high yet; to some survivors, Green Source was a synonym for evil.

For example, cannibals.

Green Source explicitly stipulated that this group was not welcome.

And the deeds of killing many cannibals had spread, making these dark survivors gnash their teeth in hatred.

It wasn't enough for Green Source to live well on its own; it even had to come out and interfere!?

It was simply unbearable.

In response, Green Source, controlled by Qin Jin, naturally didn't bother with the voices of these unwelcome people.

Not to mention these cannibals, but also others who clearly expressed displeasure with Green Source were blacklisted and not accepted for trade or contact.

So, currently, Green Source's reputation in the entire Guangnan Province was mixed, but leaning towards a good reputation.

Those who liked Green Source couldn't wait to enter.

Those who hated Green Source wished that the people here would be killed by zombies and razed to the ground.

But this was destined to be unlikely.

Because the super-large-scale zombie tide defense battle half a month ago had already spread!

Green Source's record of resisting three million zombies on its own and annihilating them had spread throughout Guangnan Province!!

Everyone who heard it suspected there was something wrong with their ears.

How could such a large number of zombies be resisted!?

However, those who spoke with certainty constantly swore to the truth of this matter.

And the fact that the zombies around Guangyuan City were indeed sparse and cleared out allowed other survivors to barely accept it.

It could only be said:

Monsters!

How did Green Source defeat three million zombies!?

The survivors outside didn't know, but they heard from the people outside Green Source that countless gunshots and explosions came from Mentang Town those two days.

The battle situation might have exceeded imagination.

Even if they didn't believe it, in the face of Green Source's silence, everyone slowly accepted this matter.

Otherwise, no one could explain where those missing zombies had gone!

Green Source's name once again resounded throughout Guangnan Province!!

Cannibals, and those who didn't like Green Source, all shut their mouths and hid.

They couldn't afford to provoke them.

Now was Green Source's moment of glory; the sensible ones avoided their edge first.

Green Source's major development plan was subsequently promoted more smoothly because of this reputation.

Outside the Green Source zone.

Since the end of the zombie tide, this area had also fallen into a certain degree of calm.

The zombies that were occasionally seen had been wiped out in the zombie tide.

Subsequently, there were patrol units sent by Green Source in the Green Source zone and in places closer to the edge to clear out zombies.

The safety here could be said to be second to none in the entire Guangnan Province.

That was under the circumstance that a certain Miss Lin would no longer flare up.

Today.

In this urban-rural area outside the Green Source zone, a man appeared.

It was Zhao Xin.

He didn't need to go to the Life Zone for duty today; it was his rest and vacation time.

Since they could only get a chance to go to the Life Zone for construction every other day.

All Level 1 personnel couldn't possibly be full; they needed to find things to do on their own in their spare time.

For example, going out of the small residential area to find food outdoors.

Wild vegetables, roots, mushrooms, snakes, insects, and rodents were all options.

Recently, there had been occasional rainfall, and the temperature was suitable.

Even the land that had been eroded by acid soil had grown many new plants.

Some of them could be eaten to fill the stomach.

Although the taste was indescribable, and it was impossible to have a large quantity, it was better than nothing, wasn't it?

Zhao Xin was recently stepping out of the small residential area to find food and relax because of boredom and hunger, and also because of a deeply buried resentment in his heart.

In addition, it was recently heard that it was very safe outside, and not even a zombie hair could be seen.

Otherwise, according to his character, it was impossible for him to leave the safe zone.

"Tch!"

"Who are you trying to fool with just that little bit of food every day!?? If I get the chance, I will definitely make these people look good!"

His face was gloomy, and he felt indignant about his experience.

He, a dignified relative of a cadre, had actually fallen to such a point; it would be fine if the people in this Green Source base all died!

Walking outdoors, breathing the fresh air that he hadn't experienced for a long time, he felt the depression in his chest slightly decrease.

It was too unpleasant.

Even though his parents in the large residential area would occasionally come over to see him, the gazes of those in the small residential area towards him, this demoted person, always made him feel like he had a fishbone stuck in his throat!

Everyone knew that he had been demoted!

Outrageous!

He sometimes kicked a stone on the ground, and sometimes cursed Green Source a few times.

Only here could he speak his mind with confidence.

The inside of the Green Source zone was like a cage to him, where he had to be careful even when speaking.

"Mr. Zhao."

Suddenly.

Just as Zhao Xin came out to vent his dissatisfaction, a man's voice came from behind him!

He quickly looked vigilantly at the person who suddenly appeared behind him.

Outside, in addition to the danger of zombies, other survivors might also be time bombs.

They might stab him in the back at any time, catch him, eat his meat, and sell him!

But he was puzzled; how did this person know his surname was Zhao when he spoke just now?

Was he guessing randomly?

"Please don't worry, I have something to talk to Mr. Zhao about; can we talk somewhere else if possible?"

The person was a man in his thirties, looking at Zhao Xin with a smile.

Like a good person.
