The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 91
Chapter 91 Consensus-Building
This was an opportunity. Everyone was already looking at Yifan eagerly, ready to see how he would respond.
Yi Fan did not feel the slightest bit uncomfortable from being stared at. He said calmly, “Well, this matter is also part of my plan.”
Wang Zhiyuan was already powerless to complain. It seemed that this brat had even guessed that they would compromise in the end. He was truly confident.
Yifan ignored everyone’s shock and exclamation. He said, “Commander Zhao, I suppose the highest rank you can apply for is that of a senior colonel, right?”
Captain Zhao nodded his head and said, “That’s right. This is because City C is the capital of South Lake. We belong to the Captain Group, so your level can only be on par with mine. The first time you apply, you must be lower than mine by one level. That’s why your military rank is Senior Colonel!”
Yifan confirmed his speculation and sighed, “Great Colonel, it’s already pretty good. Team Zhao, arrange it. I’ll stay here for 15 days and lead your team of Evolution Cultivators in. As for their future achievements, it’s up to them.”
“Of course, the quota is limited. You only have a quota of 1,000 people. I only have 1,000 people with me. I can’t bring more with me. I can’t be too busy.”
As for my conditions;
“Firstly, I want to select 10,000 ordinary survivors from the base and follow me to LY County to set up the base.”
“Second, I need 10,000 simple combat equipment and 10,000 alloy swords.”
“If these two conditions are met, I will try my best to make your 1,000 survivors stronger.”
Team Zhao pondered for a moment before nodding, “Deal. Your rank will be down soon. Notices will be posted at the survivor bases of the Southern Military Region. The survivor bases of the other military regions will not notify you, but they will also have a record.”
Yifan sighed and said, “Well, let’s talk about the second one. Let’s talk about the news I’ve brought you.”
“The message I’m going to give you is very simple. You guys need to find a good base location as soon as possible in the next few days. The city won’t be able to stay any longer.”
Team Zhao looked deeply at Yifan and said, “Is that why you chose LY County to set up your base?”
Yifan said calmly, “I wonder if you’ve noticed that there are more and more zombies in this city. Do you know why?”
“It should have been the survivors who rushed to the base and brought them from all the counties and along the way, but we’ve already paid attention to cleaning up the zombies around us,” Zhao said sternly.
“Zombies are rarely found in the surrounding area. We send people to patrol every day. Is there a problem with that?”
Yifan said calmly, “Of course, zombies will become more intelligent in the future. They are already very smart. Some Third Grade zombies have the same intelligence as wild animals, but the most terrifying one is the Corpse King.”
‘”With so many zombies gathered in one city, it will be easy to give birth to a Corpse King. So, nothing unexpected will happen. You should have been noticed by the Corpse King of C City. I guess she won’t have time to pay attention to you right now. After she improves her abilities, I estimate that she will cause the zombies of C City to riot.”
“Are you sure? How did you know there was a Corpse King?”
Yi Fan said, “I’m sure, do you think there are very few zombie kings now? This is the time when the zombie race has the most zombie kings. The 100,000 zombies in the hospital were summoned by the zombie king.”
Chief Zhao continued, “What about the Corpse King?”
Yifan: “I killed you, so from now on, you have to be on guard, and pay more attention to the movements and changes of the surrounding corpses. Find a good location that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and build a base that can reproduce for a long time. You can’t stay here anymore.”
Chief Zhao said, “Thank you for your news. No wonder you said that this news was worth everything you took from the military. If it’s true, then you saved most of the people in the base. After all, if you were surrounded, very few people would be able to walk out.”
Yi Fan nodded silently. He thought back to the news he had heard in his previous life. In his previous life, this city with a population of nearly 60W was surrounded by the Blood Eye Corpse King. After a few days of bloody battles, he had to fight back.
Only then did they finally realize how terrifying the group of corpses was. They began to break out of the encirclement. In the end, their casualties were incomparably severe. It was said that less than 150,000 people rushed out and 450,000 humans were devoured by the zombies.
Since he had been resurrected for another life, as a native of C City, Yifan would naturally sell the news. As for how the C City Survivor Base would do it and how to deal with it, that was their business.
The situation in front of him was already very clear. Yi Fan did not intend to stay any longer. He said calmly, “Then I’ll go down first. My teammates are still waiting for me downstairs.”
Chief Zhao immediately said, “Staff Officer Fang, I’ll leave all the accommodation arrangements for Little Brother Yifan to you.”
“Yes,” said Staff Officer Fang. He walked out with Yifan.
After Yifan left, everyone began to discuss. Zhou Weiguo already knew that Yifan’s enrollment in the army was already irresistible, so he could only take advantage of the situation to push it. He guessed that Yifan probably didn’t know that he had sent people to kill him.
So now, there was actually no grudge between him and Yifan. Just now, when they criticized each other for their own interests, it was not a grudge at all. At most, it could be considered a minor grudge. Giving a few crystalline cores and a few pretty virgins, they should be able to get over it.
If he knew that not only did Yifan know his background, but he had even copied it to his hometown, he didn’t know how he would feel.
Right now, everyone wanted to dig more treasures out of Zhu Yifan’s body. Furthermore, Zhu Yifan had to offer them voluntarily. There was no need to think about coercion or anything else.
The opponent’s heart was as clear as a mirror, and his own strength was extremely high. Moreover, he definitely had an extremely powerful trump card in his hand. The military was unwilling to offend such a person, and it was already the best outcome for him now.
The two sides reached a consensus that the military did not pay much. A senior colonel rank, 10,000 sets of simple individual combat equipment, 10,000 survivors, 10,000 alloy swords, in exchange for 1,000 powerful warriors of the Evolution Realm.
It was time for them to go all out. There were more than 10 people present, and each of them had at least 1,000 Evolution Cultivators. When the apocalypse erupted, there were more than 16,000 officers and men stationed in this place.
On the first day of the apocalypse, after pacifying the mutated zombie officers and soldiers, there were still about 3,500 officers and soldiers left. This was the strongest force in C City.
These pre-apocalyptic Armed Police officers and soldiers quickly calmed down the unrest in the base and made an emergency response. The nearby police and all the officials of the State Administration and FU of the Traffic Police quickly moved closer.
After they arrived, they formed the three major factions of the military base in C City after a series of games.
The first major faction, the Zhao Brigade, Wang Zhiyuan, and the armed police led the faction. They had the most survivors, and most importantly, they held the entire base’s ordnance.
The second major faction, Zhou Weiguo and the Zhou Clan’s faction. Zhou Weiguo was originally a Chinese army field corps, originally belonging to the Southern Military Region. Zhou Weiguo was originally leading a team to participate in a small-scale city war drill. After the apocalypse broke out, he quickly organized the Zhou Clan’s forces in C City to form this second faction.
The third major faction, the Huang Haibin Clan and the Provincial Police Department, arrived at the base only later. They did not have much say in the base, and the power in their hands could not be underestimated.
After the apocalypse broke out, the three major factions of Survivors Base in C City each led a brigade. The general captain was Zhao Yewei, a high-ranking and prestigious member of the military and police.
Of course, the armed police forces under his command were also the boss of the military base in C City.
The main reason why the three sects were led by the Zhao squad was that this was their territory. This weapon was firmly controlled by the Zhao squad and the others. They were the boss of this base. The Zhao squad said, “These 1000 spots account for 600 spots in the Armed Police Force. You can split the rest.”
“Commander Zhao, this is too domineering. You’ve already taken 60% of the spots. It’s a bit…”
Before Huang Haibin could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhao Yewei’s arrogant words, “I can give you 400 spots. I already miss my robes. I really don’t want to give you a single one.”
“Only 400. Do you want it?” Zhao Yewei raised his eyebrows and said resolutely. He had already made up his mind and would not give in any further.
“Want …!”
“Want …!”
Zhou Weiguo and Huang Haibin answered in unison.
The two of them exchanged glances. A trace of helplessness flashed in their eyes. They also saw the determination on Old Man Zhao’s face. Obviously, even if they fought with each other, they would still get the 600 spots. It was estimated that he wished he could kill the two of them and take the 1000 spots all by himself.
Team Zhao sighed when he saw the two of them agree. In fact, he was gambling with his old face. It could be considered as a lion’s turn. Otherwise, if the three sides split equally, they would die. Fortunately, he and Wang Zhiyuan were in control of the weapons and made them avoid throwing them into trouble.
He said indifferently, “The 400 spots are not for nothing. The materials for the 5000 sabers and swords are yours.”
Chief Zhao brought Wang Zhiyuan and several other higher-ups of the Armed Police Force out of the reception room.
Zhou Weiguo watched as Zhao Yewei and the others walked out. He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart, “Unfortunately, although the Thorned Snake Squad was reformed, only the Golden Ring Snake was able to support the entire facade. Its strength is much weaker than before.”
Only then did Zhou Weiguo feel powerless and said, “Team Huang, there’s nothing left for us to compete for. Let’s have 200 spots for each person and 2,500 spots for each person. What do you think?”
Huang Haibin nodded and said, “This is the only way!”
Very quickly, the two sects quickly left the reception room, and the previously bustling reception room immediately returned to silence.
Yifan and Staff Officer Fang returned to the side of the car that Yifan drove in.
Staff Officer Fang sighed and said, “Little Brother Yifan is truly extraordinary. I was sweating a little earlier. Aren’t you afraid that our military will really make a move?”
Yifan smiled warmly and said, “Haha … If we attack, this base will be finished!”
Staff Officer Fang looked at the slightly warm and indifferent ordinary face in front of him. Hearing his casual words, his heart was once again deeply shocked.
He sighed, “Heroes have been born in chaotic times since ancient times. Looks like the apocalypse has adapted to these words.”
Yifan chuckled, “Haha! Staff Officer Fang is flattering me. I’m not a hero. You should take us to our dwelling. After traveling for a day, I’m really tired.”
