The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1088 Pack Your Bags

"Great fortune?"

Black Bear muttered to himself, feeling extremely frustrated. Why didn't such a person appear in their camp?

It seems that there is no expert of this level even on the entire Jiaozhou Peninsula!
After a brief conversation, the group refocused their attention on the video. There were no further surprises until the steam zombie was sealed in the ice coffin and the screen went black.

Actually, there were still more than ten seconds left in the video. The person recording the video was afraid that the steam zombie would do something else, so they recorded for a little longer. When they found that it really stopped moving, they stopped recording.

After watching the video, Black Bear and the others fell into deep thought. The person called Yama was ridiculously strong, and there were many unbelievable moments, but what impressed them the most was the speed and the final ice coffin!

With Yama's astonishing short-range burst of power, no one can defend against it. In other words, within a 20-meter radius, he can take anyone's life with ease!
The most outrageous thing was the chilling aura and the crystal ice coffin. They had come into contact with advanced mutants before and knew very well that these skills should have come from those guys, but now they were being used by a human. It was unbelievable!
"Gentlemen, I'd like to ask, if that top-tier mutant had attacked our camp earlier, along with thousands upon thousands of ordinary zombies, how should we have responded?"

The black bear posed a profound question: This is absolutely possible.

The gushing steam jets, the steam waterfalls falling from the sky, the steam cannonballs firing in all directions, plus the super strong defense, this is simply a nightmare!

The three elders looked somber, unable to come up with a suitable solution.

"We can take it to Qing City; they're more capable there. Let them figure something out..."

Lu Quanli suddenly interjected, instantly breaking the tense atmosphere in the meeting room. The four men, including Black Bear, had strange expressions. It has to be said that shifting the blame was a desperate measure.

"Just kidding... Brother Xiong, elders, to be serious, do you yourselves feel comfortable being under the command of such a powerful figure?"

Lu Quanli asked earnestly.

As a warrior who yearns to become powerful, he also longs for a stable life. These two desires are not contradictory but rather complementary; the stronger he becomes, the more stable he will be.

"Let me share my opinion first!"

Zhou Qingfeng raised his hand and said, "This ruthless man called Yama, well... I don't know his exact name, so let's just call him that for now. With such abilities, he must be the leader of the camp. As a leader, he is willing to go deep into the front lines to participate in the battle. I personally admire him very much!"
I believe a camp led by someone like this will definitely have a bright future, so... even if relocating the entire camp is a bit of an exaggeration, it's still a wise choice. I agree with Commander Lu's suggestion!

Zhou Qingfeng was the first to speak out, partly because Zhao Kongkong had already defected to him, but everything he said was true and there was no exaggeration.

Lu Quanli nodded to Zhou Qingfeng to express his gratitude.

However, after Zhou Qingfeng spoke, there was an awkward silence. The camp leaders Black Bear, Liu Mingming, and the shrew were all frowning in thought.

After about two or three minutes, Liu Mingming slowly loosened his grip on the ebony cane, let out a long sigh of relief, and said, "Joining the ranks of King Yama means this old body of mine can finally retire completely. Everything is great, except for his name. I really don't want to see King Yama so soon, haha!"

Apart from Zhou Qingfeng, everyone else looked at Liu Mingming with surprise, seemingly not expecting him to agree, since he had been the one who had opposed it the most before.

Sensing the subtle gazes from the crowd, Liu Mingming raised his cane and tapped it on the table, saying, "I'm not an old fogey. If I disagree, I have my reasons for disagreeing; if I agree, I naturally have my reasons for agreeing!"

Some things don't need to be said out loud.

The shrew followed up, saying, "I might have to pour some cold water on this for you all. My opinion is a bit different from yours. I'm very satisfied with the current situation and don't think there's any need to make a fuss. Other places may not be as good as this place!"

Seemingly anticipating that the shrew would not agree, Lu Quanli, Zhou Qingfeng, and Liu Mingming all looked at Black Bear, who held two votes that were now playing a crucial role!

The shrew naturally knew this too, and said with a smile, "Brother Xiong, you should think it through. If we go to someone else's territory, it won't be up to us to make the decisions. Life might not be any better than it is now!"

This is a realistic statement, but who among those who sit at the conference table is a fool? They all have the ability to think independently and will not be easily swayed.

Black Bear clenched his fist and made a smirk. "Whether I have the final say or not isn't a big deal. It's just that I'm a sentimental person. I was born here, grew up here, and originally thought I would die on this land. But in order to find a better place for my brothers to live, it doesn't matter if I give up some of my personal principles!"

For camp members who were already living in the lower or middle class, moving to a new place wouldn't significantly change their status or position; their living conditions might even improve.

However, the situation was different for the elders and the black bear. They had to give up more things, making it a choice that involved both the individual and the collective.

Black Bear was a bear breeder, but he wasn't a bear. He was very intelligent and thought of this aspect from the beginning, so he made his stance clear. As the leader of the camp, his first consideration was all the survivors, but then he changed the subject.

"But... if we leave, those guys in LK next door will benefit!"

The relationship between Yancheng Camp and LK Camp is delicate. There is competition and cooperation, but no serious war has ever occurred, and no one has died. If you have to say, the two camps are in a semi-alliance state because Qing City is the strongest in the entire Jiao Peninsula!
In a three-way power struggle, the two weaker forces will inevitably come together.

“Once we leave, Old K will definitely take over this area, but that might not be a good thing. Qing City has long wanted to annex both of our territories! Having more territory doesn’t necessarily mean we’re stronger. In my opinion, once we leave, LK Camp will be even more dangerous!”

Liu Mingming shook his head, clearly not optimistic about the LK camp.

"Um, there's something I need to say!"

Lu Quanli raised his hand, and after receiving a nod of permission from the black bear, he began to speak.

"LK camp will most likely join Yama as well. Old K immediately expressed his friendliness to Yama. However... LK camp made several mistakes on the aircraft carrier. Old K felt he couldn't save face, so he led his brothers to leave early!"

"King Yama's intention is for me to deliver a message to Old K: if the LK camp is willing, they are open to taking him in."

"Oh?"

Black Bear and the others were all surprised. As neighbors who had dealt with each other for a long time, they knew Old K's character quite well. He was a guy who would rather break than bend. They didn't expect that even he would be convinced this time!
“That guy Old K… In that case, Commander Lu, you should head to the LK camp now. If Old K also intends to cross the sea to join Yama, then we’ll just leave this peninsula to Qing City!”

Black Bear did not immediately express his opinion, but instead shifted the responsibility to Lu Quanli.

"it is good!"

Lu Quanli felt a great sense of responsibility. He nodded, turned around and left, but stopped at the door and turned back, saying, "I can definitely persuade Old K and Brother Xiong to arrange for the brothers to pack their bags in advance!"

Bang! The door slammed shut after he finished speaking.

After Lu Quanli had walked away, the shrewish woman asked with a troubled expression, "Brother Xiong, are you really going to submit to someone else?"

"What's this about being superior or inferior? I'm just an animal keeper. I'm just a little luckier than others, and my physical fitness has improved a little faster. As long as I can live well, nothing else matters."

Black Bear waved his hand, stood up, walked to the projector, reopened the video, and sat down close to watch it with great interest.

Liu Mingming and Zhou Qingfeng's attention also shifted to the white curtain, but the shrew's brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked absent-minded.

The conference room was filled with a fluorescent glow, just like the environment where Zhang Su and his entourage were located.

A yacht sails on the boundless sea, swaying gently in the soft white light.

The sailing speed is not fast, at about fifty or sixty kilometers per hour, which is slightly better than a medium-sized cargo ship, but far slower than land transportation.
