The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1144 Is it true that things shouldn't happen more than three times?

"You're quite the talker, kid."

Zhang Su's gaze behind his sunglasses held a strange expression; this seemingly flamboyant guy in front of him was anything but simple!
When the members of the Yama Legion heard Black Fang's heartfelt praise and recalled the hardships they had endured in clearing out zombies, it seemed as if they had finally found a kindred spirit who understood how hard-won this peace was!

"Brother Su, Black Tooth is absolutely right. The reason we were able to sing so passionately is entirely due to the effective governance of Tianma Island. That's a truly remarkable achievement!"

Zhang Xiangqian was already close to the street corner, and he arrived when Hei Ya came to greet Zhang Su, but Hei Ya took away his chance to speak first.

Now that we've spoken, let's make good use of the resources Black Tooth provided earlier.

The scene included not only people from the Liao Peninsula, but also stragglers who had just arrived at Tianma Island, as well as some of the forces that had previously joined the camp.

Looking back at how I felt when I first arrived at Tianma Island, compared to these two, I was utterly pathetic.

If people's inner voices could be amplified, then we could hear many people sighing in secret.

Listening to the compliments from Hei Ya and Zhang Xiangqian, Zhang Su smiled and gestured to the crowd with his palms, saying, "Today is a welcome dinner for all of you brothers who have traveled from afar, and also a welcome to our small group struggling to survive in Qincheng."

Seeing the smiles on everyone's faces makes all our efforts worthwhile!

As he spoke, Zhang Su patted Hei Ya and Zhang Xiangqian on the shoulders.

The grand welcome banquet officially began with the arrival of the key figures.

Chen Hanzhou and Pan Guoliang, who were on duty at the port, have returned. The port staff on duty are Ju Wuying, who doesn't like crowds, and Pang Dakun, who likes crowds but was drawn by lot to go to the port!

The moment Pang Dakun pulled out the shortest cotton swab, it felt like his hands had been chopped off...

There was no way around it; it was an unshakeable order. Since they had participated in the lottery, they had to carry it out. Even if he offered an astonishingly high price, no one was willing to exchange positions with him. The only one who was willing to exchange was Chen Hanzhou, but since consecutive bids were not allowed, he had to give up.

As they drove to the port, Tachibana Mai Sakura sensed a tremendous amount of resentment. She thought to herself, "If Pang Dakun were to die at this moment, he would probably become a vengeful spirit!"

"New friends, it's not just fate that we met here and now. We'll share joys and sorrows together from now on. Enough with the chit-chat, let's get started!"
However, I must state one thing beforehand: I absolutely despise all the formalities at drinking parties. No one is allowed to offer a toast! Let's eat!

At the banquet, Zhang Su gave the first speech. This time he was smarter and made things clear in advance, otherwise he would definitely not have a good time and everyone would be in trouble.

There aren't many people who genuinely enjoy toasting each other with a glass of wine. If it weren't for social niceties, who wouldn't want to have a proper meal in this terrible apocalypse?

"Okay, let's eat."

"The leader is wise!"

Feeling the leader's thoughtfulness, everyone supported the declaration!

The entire welcome banquet was lively and cheerful. This spiritual nourishment was a benefit bestowed upon the survivors by the camp's leadership. From the administrators' perspective, this banquet was more than just a simple meal!

Yu Wen did not forget his very important task. Taking advantage of everyone's happy mood, he announced a series of policies for Tianma Island, including ten ironclad rules, a special calendar for Tianma Island, the overall management framework, and the jurisdiction of the appointed personnel, etc.

Take advantage of this grand gathering to introduce the management team of Tianma Island to the new members, so that they know clearly what their responsibilities are, what their needs are, who to contact if problems arise, and so on.

Not a single word wasted; everything was relevant to their future lives. The new survivors listened attentively, and some even took out their phones to record the conversation, leaving audio recordings for future review.

"The development of the camp is inseparable from everyone's contributions. Next, we will..."

After announcing a series of policies, Yu Wen then announced various selection tasks, including combat personnel, civilian personnel, and special talents. This was in response to Zhang Su's call for accelerated development, which could not be as slow as before!
Everything was designed to serve the development of the camp, and the survivors could feel a strong sense of optimism and prosperity. Everyone strongly supported the policy arrangements!

Chang Qingsheng also participated in the welcome banquet. As a trainee member of the Yama Legion, he sat in a central position, listening quietly to each measure, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

Each camp has its own development trajectory, but they all lead to the same goal: safety, prosperity, and longevity.

Chang Qingsheng compared the rules and regulations of Tianma Island with those of Genesis, and clearly found differences in their philosophies. It was hard to say which was better or worse, only whether it was suitable or unsuitable. The banquet lasted for nearly two hours. Although the temperature was cold, no one felt cold thanks to the flames, the food, and the atmosphere.

When the excitement faded, all that remained was a mess in the streets. These mundane tasks were originally the responsibility of the menial and chores groups, but the survivors who had attended the dinner actively participated in cleaning up, extending the harmonious atmosphere until the campfire was extinguished and tranquility was restored.

“Honey, we’re getting better and better. Can you feel it? The survivors at Wild Dog Camp and the Fellowships don’t feel like strangers at all.”

In the leader's house of Little Lucky, Zheng Xinyu leaned on the windowsill, looking at the dark night sky and feeling sentimental. She was wearing pajamas, and since she wasn't afraid of the cold, she finally didn't have to wrap herself up like a ball!
Zhang Su sat opposite him, a cigarette between his fingers. Whenever he had a moment to spare, he couldn't help but ponder the silver-plated skin next to the energy bar. He came back to his senses after hearing Zheng Xinyu's words.

"I really didn't expect them to integrate into their new life so quickly. I'm very pleased, especially Black Fang and his gang of clowns, who brought a lot of joy to the camp..."

Killing zombies is a waste of Black Fang's comedic talent. Once our camp is more stable, we could form a small theater troupe, doing singing and performing to enrich our cultural and entertainment lives.

Zheng Xinyu's eyes lit up when she heard Zhang Su's words, and she nodded vigorously in agreement, saying, "A small theater troupe is great! I'm all for it! Singing, dancing, magic, acrobatics! When will it be formed? I want to help with the auditions!"

Seeing Zheng Xinyu's enthusiastic attitude, Zhang Su smiled and shook his head, saying, "Then we'll have to discuss it with Lao Yu. I'm too lazy to take charge of that part. Take a rest; we have a lot to do tomorrow."

Leave the internal affairs to Yu Wen. There are many tasks outside now, so Zhang Su needs to focus on this. Only by developing both internally and externally can the camp reach new heights.

"Time for bed!"

Lying back in my own bed, although the bed and bedding weren't particularly luxurious, it still gave me a comfortable feeling.

On this night in Tianma Island, many new members of the camp had difficulty falling asleep due to their complicated feelings. However, positive emotions dominated. As long as they were safe and had their former companions by their side, leaving the camp where they had lived for a while, it was home!

Zhang Su lay in bed, listening to Yu Wen and Liu Lingping's discussion about psychological testing and laws and regulations in the next room, secretly admiring the elderly couple.

They were more energetic than many young people and put a lot of effort into the construction of the camp. Having such a team to assist in internal affairs was indeed reassuring.

As he pondered, he gradually drifted into a drowsy state. Just as he was about to fall asleep, a thought jolted Zhang Su awake.

"Having strange dreams for three nights in a row, is it just a matter of time, or will it happen again..."

No one can answer this question except by trying it directly.

As he relaxed and drowsiness crept in, Zhang Su was about to fall asleep when reality revealed the answer: the strange dream, just like the previous few days, arrived as expected!

"Damn it... they really came!"

Zhang Su didn't know how long he had slept, but suddenly he appeared in a void, with an expression that said, "I knew it."

"Come on, let me see what new tricks you have up your sleeve today."

From initial confusion, he has gradually taken the initiative and begun to explore his dreams. Regardless of what these dreams are trying to tell him, he must first write down the contents of the dreams.

"Huh? What do you mean? How come..."

Zhang Su stood in a hazy gray space. Unlike the last time when black smoke swept past his eyes, this time the gray matter around him was motionless. When he reached out to touch it, a clear air wall blocked his exploration.

This feeling is very similar to when the challenge mission is announced, except that at that time, not only is there an invisible wall, but time and space are also frozen.

This unique environment made Zhang Su even more certain of one thing: the dream was definitely related to the mysterious power that gave him the challenge.

Thinking of this, my heart tightened. Last time, I had thought about it in that direction, and as a result, I broke free from the dream.

Focusing his mind, Zhang Su emptied his thoughts and continued exploring the dream.
