Volume 5: The Destruction of the Gods Chapter 53 I am here to inform you
Last night, the extraordinary people and construction team of Home No. 1 did not sleep. They were all busy building the city wall. After a whole night of hard work, they finally enclosed an area of 600 square kilometers around the city center. This area was planned by Shang Qian.
The captain of the construction team is Long Taojia. The cross-sea bridge from City D to City Q was designed by him as the chief engineer. At that time, Shen Jin appointed him as the captain of the No. 1 Home Construction Team. He was the only one. Later, Shang Qian recruited a group of down-to-earth pseudo-supernatural people into the construction team. Finally, Long Taojia is no longer alone!
Shen Jin gave them enough tools, all of which were strengthened with [Repairing Moss], which could automatically restore the durability of the tools under the sun. They were specifically responsible for the city's infrastructure. The walls of Home No. 1 had been renovated by them and now had more functions and strategic depth, making it easier to deal with the zombie tide. The Long Tao family was highly appreciated by Shen Jin and Shang Qian.
After everyone built a 6-meter-high single-layer city wall overnight last night, the extraordinary people will not be involved in the remaining part, and it will be gradually completed by the construction team. It is expected that the construction will be completed in a week.
The Long Tao family is full of energy and is ready to let their construction team shine in Hulu District!
More than 2,000 extraordinary people who had not slept all night were still full of energy. This kind of intense work was not a pain at all for these first- and second-level extraordinary people. They were all masters of staying up late and time assassins!
Early in the morning, they put down their pickaxes and pebbles, walked to the streets of Hulu City, and started beating drums and gongs, making a lot of noise, so that everyone in the city would rush to the People's Square in front of the World Trade Center to listen to the first collective presentation of No. 1 Home.
Shen Jin needs to make everyone realize the current situation and future life.
Everyone must attend!
Early in the morning, the whole Hulu District was in chaos...
Among them, hundreds of people dressed in obviously more upscale clothes came out of an ancient castle building that looked very much like a tourist attraction. They were the local extraordinary people in Hulu District, and they had already planned last night how to deal with this battle without gunpowder today.
Leading the group were two extraordinary people in their 30s, Yuan Yi and Qin Ding.
The two of them represent the highest combat power in Hulu District, the peak of the second level!
A person with special abilities, a person with extraordinary genetic traits.
Before Shen Jin and his friends came, the two of them jointly managed a medium-sized settlement with more than 8,000 people. Since they awakened their supernatural powers earlier, they collected enough supplies and organized effective defense measures in the early stages. This is considered an old settlement in Hulu District and has a certain prestige.
There are a total of 60,000 survivors in Hulu District, and a considerable proportion of them came from their settlement.
"What's coming has finally come... Success or failure will be decided in one fell swoop. Just like we discussed last night, we must unite as one and never compromise. We won't give them the chance to separate us!"
"Yesterday, there were 620 extraordinary people who were willing to join our operation. Even they have to think carefully about whether they must go against us. I think they will understand the situation!"
The others all nodded in agreement. They had even made arrangements for the distribution of benefits last night...
"I don't think they dare to go against the trend!"
Everyone straightened their backs and walked towards the China World Trade Center in groups. With more people, their momentum increased and they walked with great power. If someone didn't know, they would think that they were the ones who killed the zombies in Hulu City!
As they strode forward, some knowledgeable people in Hulu District secretly curled their lips and said, "Don't overestimate your own abilities. People have different physiques. I was extremely angry..."
"Ahem! You mean the combat effectiveness of one extraordinary person is different from another extraordinary person, right? For extraordinary people of the same stage, the type of superpowers, physical strength, weapons, and protective gear will directly affect a person's combat effectiveness. They think they are second-level extraordinary people and can do something about it, but they completely ignore that the most powerful thing about these people is their equipment! I saw them holding a glowing gun and beating zombies into pieces. That kind of ... is definitely not something that a second-level extraordinary person can challenge!"
There are no third-level extraordinary people in Hulu District, and there are no more than 30 third-level extraordinary people in the whole country. Those who have reached the third-level extraordinary people at this time are all brilliant people, and they are extraordinary people with excellent talents. When Tianluodiwang finds them, they will take the initiative to recruit them and bring them under their command. Obviously, there are no such people in Hulu District.
Those knowledgeable people who were watching the situation also went to the China World Trade Center in groups. There were only about 200 of them.
The vast majority of ordinary people followed them to the China World Trade Center in a daze. They had been protected by the extraordinary people before, and they didn't feel anything about having a new extraordinary person as their leader today. As long as they could live a decent life, it was enough.
People nowadays no longer have the enthusiasm they had when the apocalypse just broke out. They just live as long as they can.
As long as you are alive, everything is possible. The turbulent times did not defeat the Chinese people, and neither will this zombie virus!
By the time everyone arrived at the China World Trade Center, it was exactly 9 o'clock in the morning. Shen Jin landed from the air and stood on the top of the protruding "Thinker" statue in the center of the square. The quantum armor on his body gradually faded away, revealing decent casual clothes. He looked very energetic and handsome!
This is the clothes Shang Qian picked for him, and she told him that a suitable set of clothes can enhance a speaker's charm.
There are already 60,000 people gathered below, all of them looking up with wide eyes... The man above, wanting to know what kind of person will be the one who will rule here in the future?
Kind? Or cold-blooded?
60,000 people appearing in one place at the same time will give you an idea of how big this number is!
The China World Trade Center is packed!
"This person... looks pretty good~! At least he doesn't look ferocious, he's clean and gentle!"
"The clothes are well matched. You can tell he's a man of taste!"
"Hey! Isn't this the big-headed man on the coins distributed yesterday? What a shame! Printing your own face on a coin! It's so shameless! It's so embarrassing! I'm so embarrassed!"
"Yes! That's right, this kind of money is really too eye-catching. I suggest that everyone give all the coins to me and I will destroy them in batches..."
"roll!"
"Okay~!"
The people below began to comment on Shen Jin, analyzing him from the perspectives of appearance, body movements, and psychology, and gave some seemingly pertinent opinions.
"This is definitely a natural born leader. He stands there and without saying anything, he is so intimidating without even getting angry!"
"His eyes are very clear. You can tell at a glance that he is not a lecher. He is not like the leaders of the previous settlements, who were all lechers. Ugh!"
“I haven’t heard his story, but his eyes… are full of stories!”
Listening to the noisy sounds below, Shen Jin put on a smile and pressed his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Everyone at the scene fell silent. They would not take over the topic at this time because... everyone wanted to know what this person wanted to say?
What is the fate of us ordinary people?
"I'm glad to have helped everyone stay away from the threat of zombies and made Hulu City a safe area! And we will ensure that this safety will continue forever!"
Shen Jin spoke in a relaxed, confident and free-spirited manner, without any restraint, as if he was chatting with friends.
Shang Qian stood on the side of the extraordinary people in Home No. 1. They were right at the main entrance of the China World Trade Center, just like Shen Jin's fan club, except that they were short of holding up a small glowing sign. There were more than 1,000 extraordinary people floating in the air, who were responsible for guarding and maintaining order to prevent any unexpected situations.
Shang Qian felt that Shen Jin was really different. He was no longer the otaku he used to be. He was no longer timid and evasive, but had become a real lord!
When the ordinary people below heard Shen Jin's words, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Zombies... were the problem they were most worried about. If this safety could really be maintained, how happy would this world be?
Shen Jin continued, "Let me introduce myself first. We are from Q City's No. 1 Home Base, the official settlement designated by the Tianluodiwang. We are members of the Tianluodiwang branch. I am the head of the branch. You can call me... Colonel Shen Jin!"
At this time, an official identity obviously played a role. After Shen Jin finished speaking, everyone below showed an expression of "Oh~! So that's it!" Everyone's face was even more surprised. It turned out to be an official! No wonder he is so powerful! This makes sense!
The country has not abandoned them!
Shen Jin took out the colonel badge awarded to him by Tianluodiwang, which had the words "Shen Jin" engraved on it. He showed it to increase his credibility again.
In the end times, if people don’t have satellite phones, they can basically only listen to the news on the radio. People in other places can hardly be contacted. Even if they are people in the same city, the news cannot be delivered if they are far away. Therefore, many people have not heard of Shen Jin, but they have heard of the name of "Home Base No. 1". After all, after the broadcast, the locations of the survivors' bases in various regions are reported, and the official settlements in the cities next to them must pay attention.
"So, Hulu City will get back on track in the future. We will help everyone restore their homes as soon as possible. From now on, the residents of Hulu City will enjoy the same rights and obligations as the residents of Home No. 1. I hope everyone will cooperate with our guards in the future and jointly protect our home. Now, the captain of the guards, Liu Jin, will read out the rules applicable to our base..."
Liu Jin flew up with a few pieces of paper, threw down a [cobblestone step], stood next to Shen Jin, and began to read out the policy of Home No. 1 meticulously.
"Article 1: The scope of application of the country's "End Times Law"..."
…
"Finally, I will post this system on the glass on the first floor of the China World Trade Center. You can come and read it anytime..."
Liu Jin preached the basic system, which are policies that are very consistent with human rights and are very friendly to ordinary people. They limit the scope of some of the extraordinary people's actions and protect the rights of all citizens in the entire base.
Ordinary people originally thought that they were going to hear some rather humiliating treaties, such as elevating the status of extraordinary people, expanding the privileges in the hands of managers, exploiting the labor of ordinary people, etc., but... there was not a single one!
The entire rule is clear and concise, letting everyone know clearly that they can no longer bully others at will. Ordinary people and extraordinary people have the same status in the base. No one can bully others at will, otherwise the guards will come to enforce the law .
At this time, there was a lot of discussion below, and everyone was discussing this rule. Shen Jin was not in a hurry to urge them, but waited quietly, waiting for them to digest the information just now.
After a while, the scene gradually quieted down, and an elegant transcendent said in a loud voice: "Colonel Shen Jin, I am a second-level transcendent from Hulu City. My name is Qin Ding. Can I ask a question?"
"Okay, you go ahead!"
Shen Jin didn't mind communicating with the local extraordinary people here. They would live together in the future, and it would be best if they could be convinced in their hearts so as not to cause more trouble for the guards.
Qin Ding glanced down and said, "From what I heard from the captain just now, many of the rules don't seem to come from the "Law of the End Times", right? Who has the right to change the terms? Is this reasonable? I think if you are really an official member of the Tianluodiwang, you shouldn't mix in your own opinions and implement all the "Law of the End Times" promulgated by Tianluodiwang . This is the only way to convince everyone! Don't you agree?"
The group of extraordinary people below all said in unison: "Yes! You can't convince others by doing this!"
"Don't change it! We used to act according to the Law of the End Times!"
"Rules should not be used as a means for you to pursue your own interests!"
When the other ordinary people heard it, it seemed to be the case, and some people were instigated to shout. Shen Jin frowned as he looked at Qin Ding who was speaking. This thing called "Law of the End Times"... It has not been updated for a long time. That was in the early days of the end of the world, when the government had not yet completely handed over the command to Tianluodiwang. The laws promulgated on the radio station were just a stopgap measure at that time, a means to win the hearts of the people and strengthen everyone's legal consciousness. Since Tianluodiwang took office half a year ago, he has basically not talked about this "Law of the End Times". Although it is still in use, no more regulations are added to it, and some inappropriate regulations have not been deleted, because there were not many extraordinary people at that time, and there was a lack of regulations for the management of extraordinary people.
These people wanted to use this loophole to attack Shen Jin and gain their own benefits.
Shen Jin didn't need to look to know that the extraordinary people who were following the commotion below must have colluded with each other long ago, but... was he panicking?
Not panicking at all.
Shen Jin smiled and said, "The regulations here have been revised many times after our discussion... to update and better suit the development of the base, such as this... Shen Jin has the highest right to interpret all the regulations of the No. 1 Home Base. Let me explain what I mean... Qin Ding! Instigating others to openly resist the law, the guard team will arrest you directly!"
Shen Jin's voice was particularly stern when he spoke the last few words. Qin Ding shouted, "This rule of yours is an unfair clause! You are breaking the law knowingly. No one's life and safety can be guaranteed in the base!"
"Oh? Don't you believe in our rules? Then there is no need to explain the rules to you. Anyone nearby who dares to assist Qin Ding in resisting will be punished with the same crime!"
In the sky, a silver-white light flashed, and everyone's eyes were dazzled. The white armor came in front of Qin Ding. He looked fierce and confused. He opened the second-level gene lock and did not intend to surrender. "Bang!"
The man in the armor punched him on the back of the head, and the punch was so fast that... an illusion appeared in broad daylight, and Qin Ding fainted on the spot. Yuan Yi, who was standing by and wanted to help, retracted his hand when he saw this. The armor carried Qin Ding and came behind Shen Jin. The visor opened, revealing Yang Ao's handsome face, "Brother Jin, this armor is really useful!"
Quantum armor!
Yang Ao also put on the same quantum armor.
Shen Jin nodded and continued, "Besides him, is there anyone else who disagrees with the rules just issued? Oh, right! The rules I issued are not for discussion with you, but... to inform everyone that if you want to live here, you must abide by the rules of Home No. 1!"
When Yuan Yi saw that his brother Qin Ding, a second-level advanced gene-locked extraordinary being, couldn't even resist, he became intimidated and instantly no longer wanted to discuss the distribution of benefits he had discussed with others last night. He... hadn't lived enough.
"Damn it! Moral kidnapping has lost its effect... Why don't they have the fake morality of the officials?!"
Of the two leaders among the local extraordinary people, one was subdued as soon as he came up, and the other was scared. Naturally, the other extraordinary people whose abilities were not as good as the two dared not speak. They were originally arrogant and ready to take a share of the pie, but now they lowered their heads and did not dare to look Shen Jin in the eye...
"Very good! It seems that everyone agrees with the rules of No. 1 Home, so let's start implementing them from now on! By the way, from today on, this place will be officially renamed Hulu District and will be affiliated with No. 1 Home Base. The first district chief will be Lao Wang!"
Lao Wang waved and saluted from below, and someone started a round of warm applause.
“Pah pah pah pah——”
…
After the open-air meeting here ended, Shen Jin returned to Home No. 1. He wanted to move some resources to Hulu District.
Shen Jin passed by Lao Fu's laboratory and walked in with some curiosity. He saw Lao Fu hypnotizing a zombie...
