Chapter 719 590: I'm Just an Honest Person

"Ah!"

"My God..."

"Almost wiped out?"

The three didn't doubt what Zhang Su said, they were stunned, instantly feeling that the suffering of the past two days was trivial compared to this. If they had stayed at Lego Mall at that time, they might have become one of the sacrifices.

"I never expected Gong Chengming to be so insane. Why is he doing this?" Yang Dongxin felt heartbroken.

"Let's not talk about this anymore!" Zhang Su waved his hand, then asked again, confirming that the three had no special secrets, and continued: "Let me ask you, what's your plan? Do you want to stay in the lab, or join other departments?"

"What do you mean?"

"Huh?"

Zhang Su's question bewildered the three. After about ten seconds, Yang Dongxin was the first to react, saying excitedly, "Thank King Yama for sparing our lives. I am willing to follow orders. I am a brick of the camp; move me wherever needed!"

"Willing to follow arrangements!"

"Me too..."

Zuo Fengjuan and Zhou Haotian didn't have as many words as Yang Dongxin, but also expressed their heartfelt gratitude.

Zhang Su guessed this would be the result, he stared at the three for a while and made a decision.

"Zuo Fengjuan, you seem gentle and frail, and your profession indeed has some relation to scientific research, so you will continue to stay in the lab. As for the content of your work, you need to follow the arrangements from above, is there any problem?"

Zuo Fengjuan repeatedly bowed: "No problem, not a single problem, thanks to King Yama for his great mercy."

"Mercy my foot, don't say those things. You can call me leader, Brother Zhang, Brother Su, whatever you like, but don't call me King Yama!"

Zhang Su waved his hand, he personally had no particular opinions about these people in the scientific department of the Survivor Alliance, bringing them back was mainly for show.

After arranging Zuo Fengjuan, he then looked at Yang Dongxin: "You, an old hand, can't stay in the lab. You will go down to the village. I will find you a suitable job; if things are mysteriously missing from the warehouse, think about the consequences on your own."

Yang Dongxin was assigned as warehouse manager, but he wasn't the only one managing it. Others would be involved too, all under Zhong Xiaoshan's control, making any problems easy to investigate.

Upon hearing this, Yang Dongxin stood up straight and saluted: "Orders from the leader are above everything. I guarantee task completion, no corruption, no embezzlement!"

Being a professional, his demeanor was quite impressive, his slogan remarkably loud; even people outside busy collecting bodies heard it, bewildered, and looked at each other.

"Why shout so loud? Save your strength for the real work!"

Zhang Su never valued these things, he focused on actions later, immediately looking at the last person.

"Zhou Haotian, you seem young, with sound limbs, and were only a librarian before, not suitable for continuing in the lab. Join the reserve team for training, become a combatant!"

The guy was about six feet tall, not extravagantly tall and bulky, but his physique was considered good in the camp.

"Ah!"

Zhou Haotian let out a miserable scream, his puffed-up chest suddenly collapsed.

"Yan, Brother Zhang, please listen to me. I believe I can be of more use in the lab, I... I am particularly interested in scientific stuff, I... I have a hunch, I can often propose unique insights to help us find the key to problems!"

"I think you're really trying to fool me!"

Zhang Su's eyes behind his frog sunglasses rolled over, this guy's words were too far-fetched, but someone backed him up.

Yang Dongxin smiled obsequiously and raised his hand: "Leader, let me say a word, Xiaozhou's words are not empty. He indeed has talent in this area, you can verify this with Dr. Fu; he classified Xiaozhou's ability as 'guiding thought'."

"Oh?"

Zhang Su didn't expect the cunning Yang Dongxin to speak for Zhou Haotian; it didn't align with his opportunistic nature.

Yang Dongxin instantly saw where Zhang Su's doubt stemmed from, explaining: "I... haha, I don't want Xiaozhou's talent to be wasted, nor do I want a rare talent missing from the camp, so I'm boldly reporting the situation."

"Guiding thought, not understanding but able to guide others, posing deeper questions to help the person solve dilemmas, is that it?"

Zhang Su looked with interest at Zhou Haotian, teasing: "Corpse Transformation Powder, was it born under a series of your questions?"

"Uh..." Zhou Haotian awkwardly scratched his itchy head: "That's right, I played a certain role, and I'm quite guilty about it because I learned that Liao Youzhi killed several ordinary members of the alliance while testing Corpse Transformation Powder later..."

It was just a casual question from Zhang Su, didn't expect it to be true. He thought about it for a moment, saying: "A large group of zombies attacked Qin City from the Mountain and Sea District; I am now very worried about the zombie horde moving north to attack us, how do you think we should handle this?"

"Um, let me think..." Zhou Haotian knew this was a test, whether to stay comfortably in the lab or take up arms against zombies, it all depended on this wave!

"First, I think we need to find out why the zombies attacked Qin City; if that can be solved, the problem will be resolved. If not, Brother Zhang, think about it, if the zombies move north, what is the biggest trouble?"

"You're asking me? Oh, right, you're just responsible for guiding thought..." Zhang Su smirked, saying: "The zombie horde was directed to Qin City by some unknown person, over a hundred thousand in number, already in progression; to gather and lead them away would be a huge challenge, not easy!

If the zombie horde moves north, the biggest trouble should be locking onto our camp's human magnetic field; once locked and forming a scale, there's virtually no obstacle. The natural Chuhai River can only slow down the zombies, unable to stop them!"

"Right, Brother Zhang, think further, can we break the magnetic field lock, meanwhile, can we use the Chuhai River to our advantage? Also, there's another survivor camp south, why can't that be a target for zombie attacks? Is there room to maneuver there? Or simply blow up the skyscraper next to the main road, trapping the zombie horde in the city, forming a giant cage?"

Considering so much in a short time, Zhang Su could confirm Zhou Haotian's brainpower was better than 80% of those in the camp.

Even at this point, Zhang Su was still not giving up, continuing to ask: "Okay, if we focus on building defenses along the Chuhai River next, what kind of reinforcements would be necessary?"

"We need... Brother Zhang, I can't give you a specific plan, but you can consider the zombies' weak points; however, don't just consider the zombies, we also need the convenience for the defense personnel, and if any ill-intentioned survivors invade, how to resist, this project is too large, I can't say it all at once..."

Zhou Haotian looked troubled, spreading his hands.

Zhang Su nodded, clasping his hands behind him: "Zhou Haotian, I think you're still not suited for the lab."

"Ah!"

Zhou Haotian let out another wail, his expression very painful, but in fact, his brain was working rapidly, but before he could think of a solution, the other party spoke again.

"You should have a bigger stage to showcase your skills, you probably don't know about the Yama Corps, right?"

"Know, know!"

Zhang Su hadn't finished speaking when Yang Dongxin quickly answered: "The Yama Corps is Celestial Horse Island's highest-level combat unit, a direct branch of King Yama, each member not only possesses unparalleled courage in battle but also shines in various fields!"

"Are you a warehouse manager, or an Ancient Greek god of flattering?"

Previously, Zhang Su thought the best flatterers were Yuwen, Li Zongkai and the like, now compared to the person in front of him, the difference is stark.

"Dare not, dare not. I am just a humble warehouse keeper, an ordinary person who likes to speak the truth."

Yang Dongxin's expression was sincere as he waved repeatedly.
