Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 138: It is our duty to eliminate the zombies!
500 strong crossbowmen who were training in the No. 1 Academy received the order from the extraordinary instructor and immediately gathered in the backyard of the villa. The 500 people stood in neat military posture and formed 5 teams in front of the entrance of the Artisan Soul Research Institute. Pang Guang called them in one by one. Shen Jin, Yang Ao and Lu Daizhen, who was wearing a hat, sat inside. There was a small table and a chair in front of them. "Sit down!"
"Yes! Sir!"
These soldiers have been persuaded by their captain Dou Bei to join the No. 1 Home team wholeheartedly. Dou Bei led by example and served as the deputy captain of Li Zhe's team as a second-level extraordinary person, becoming the core figure of the No. 1 Home Extraordinary Brigade. Naturally, the soldiers below also fully accepted Shen Jin's arrangements, but they had never been used before. Shen Jin asked them to train with the instructors temporarily, and at the same time taught the skills of using bows and crossbows to the students of No. 1 Academy, and their living expenses were taken care of by Shen Jin. Shen Jin has always been generous in raising soldiers. With only 500 more mouths to feed, there is no shortage of food, vegetables, and meat. By the way, the first batch of vegetable greenhouses led by Lao Wang has begun to harvest steadily, the pigs in City D have begun to give birth, and the pheasants are also hatching eggs. The farming days are gradually getting better.
Fortunately, the zombie virus only affects humans, and has no effect on the plants and animals of Blue Star. The previous seeds can still be used, and the animals can reproduce normally. The greenhouse produces fresh vegetables every day, which can not only supply Shen Jin's own expenses, but also store a part of them and sell them in grocery stores. The price is not cheaper than pork. However, there are rich people who can afford it. In the future, when the plants grown in this spring plowing grow out, the price should drop a lot. Shen Jin requires today's new farmers to expand the scale of production and maximize the output of vegetables. Shen Jin has a hunch that the situation may become more and more severe in the future. There are still 4 months left before the zombies start the next stage of the time lock. They will all evolve into first-order evolved zombies in early July of the first year of the apocalypse. At that time, defense will be more difficult, and some unpredictable changes may occur. Therefore, Shen Jin's [box] can lock time, so naturally he has to store more vegetables so that he can eat them all the time in the future. The amount of food is already a lot, and now only vegetables are needed. A reasonable diet can also improve the physical fitness of all extraordinary people.
These 500 people have stayed here for nearly a month, and their physical fitness has improved a lot compared to before. As we all know, eating only pork will lead to weight loss, and rice and pasta are the main sources of energy. Now these 500 people have eaten for nothing for more than half a month, and they are all determined to play their own value. They are elite soldiers who have walked out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and they have not lived to this day to lie down, eat and wait to die. They are not convinced by the cowardice of the previous Q city government managers, so when the captain Dou Bei raised his arm, they all defected to Shen Jin's camp. The most crucial thing is that Shen Jin is the officially recognized Q city branch of Tianluodiwang, and he has a legitimate reason to serve the country!
Without this title, they might not be able to overcome the psychological barriers and serve as thugs for a private warlord...
Sometimes, it is important to have a legitimate reason for doing so.
Shen Jin began to ask questions: "First question, are you living well in Home No. 1?"
The soldiers below sat very straight and answered loudly, "Very good, sir!"
Lu Daizhen kept her head down. She didn't look up at Shen Jin, which proved that she didn't read any psychological problems of the soldier. This person didn't lie. "Second question, do you recognize the rules and laws of Home No. 1?"
"Totally approved, sir!"
Shen Jin nodded, very good.
"The third question is, who are you loyal to?"
Shen Jin narrowed his eyes slightly. This was his ultimate problem. An army must be completely under his own control to be safe. If it was still concerned about the previous dynasty, he would not use it no matter what.
The soldier did not hesitate at all: "Be loyal to the country! Be loyal to the dragnet, be loyal to Colonel Shen Jin!"
At this moment, the colonel rank on Shen Jin's chest was shining brightly. This was given to him by the Tianluodiwang headquarters and was also a symbol of official status.
Shen Jin glanced at Lu Daizhen calmly, but she still didn't look up.
"Good! Congratulations on getting the chance to inject this potion. After the injection, you will become a first-level gene-locked superhuman and officially join the No. 1 Homeland Superhuman Corpse Killing Team. Are you willing to fight zombies in the future until... the zombie virus is eradicated?"
The soldier shouted: "It is our duty!"
He has waited too long for this day. If soldiers choose to survive in the end times, then... who can they expect to save this country and save their Chinese compatriots?
A pure heart!
"Very good! Take this bottle of medicine and go to the back to get the injection. From now on, you will be a member of the extraordinary people of Home No. 1!"
The soldier stood up, saluted, and took the transparent potion covered with a rubber stopper. Unlike the first generation of gene optimization potions, version 2.0 of the potion needed to be injected to fully exert its effect, unlock the first-order gene lock, and achieve extraordinary power!
Moreover, the combat effectiveness of those who open the gene lock in this way is no different from those who open it with their own will. They can instantly master that kind of combat awareness and stronger physical fitness. Behind the Artisan Soul Research Institute, the hospital staff set up a small work site with injection tubes and a super amount of food. After the injection, a large amount of energy needs to be replenished. In addition to swallowing a crystal core, food supplements must be added to ensure that this genetic drug transformation of the body will not have any side effects. Otherwise, you will find that after the injection, the fat on your body has been consumed a lot, and you have become a skinny person.
The previous interview continued. After the soldiers came in one by one, they went to the back to receive injections and eat food. An afternoon passed, and there were no problems with the 500 soldiers!
This was far beyond Shen Jin's expectations. Yang Ao said with emotion, "Brother Jin, maybe... this is the ideal and belief, right?"
"yes……"
The two people who had no faith before the end of the world now felt a strong radiance emanating from these soldiers. There was no such thing as a peaceful life. It was just that someone was carrying the burden for you...
The next day, these 500 soldiers who had become first-level gene-locked extraordinary beings stood together in the courtyard in front of the villa. Dou Bei did not come to avoid suspicion.
Behind Shen Jin were three large baskets of equipment:
The three-piece set of the Artisan Soul. Yang Ao shouted loudly: "From today on, you will officially become new members of the No. 1 Home Corpse Squad. Go forward to receive the Corpse Squad exclusive equipment: [Artisan Soul Backpack], [Traveler Gloves], [Traveler Belt]"
Everyone came forward in an orderly manner to receive them. Yang Ao walked in front and said, "Inside the belts are the [Slime Crossbow] for you, and two pots of [Steel Crossbow Arrows], a total of 520 arrows, all of which are recyclable materials. Remember to take them back after use. When more than half of the crossbow arrows are used up, report to your captains and they will be replenished!"
"In addition, the [Craftsman Soul Backpack] is equipped with a standard fine steel sword, a set of standard armor, a [Jet Pack], 5 tanks of [Methane Units], and 5 [Crystal Core Bombs] for each of you. These are all prepared by Boss Shen for you to ensure that you can deal with various situations in the future!"
500 people shouted in unison: "Thank you for your hard work, sir!"
“Serving everyone!”
Shen Jin waved his hand.
