The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1150 The Unlucky Duo

Zhang Su was fully aware of Li Zongkai's abilities, and because of the "Loyalty Mark," Li Zongkai was the member he trusted most.

It doesn't matter where you put him in the camp, the only thing you can't let is charge into battle, it would be such a waste if he were to sacrifice himself!
To outsiders, Li Zongkai's failure to enter the core group might be due to his lack of combat strength. But no one could have imagined that it was precisely because the leader trusted this member too much that he was not allowed to live on the mountain...

However, as an official, Li Zongkai's living conditions were quite good, significantly better than those of ordinary members.

Zhang Xin is a brother I've known for a long time. Our initial acquaintance wasn't very pleasant; we had a conflict in the Phoenix International Community. It was about the issue, not the person. After recognizing the problem, we made corrections and even fought side by side.

He was very aware that after realizing he was not capable enough to lead the team, he immediately changed his mindset, knew when to advance and when to retreat, and joined the Survivors Alliance, where he secured a captain position that was more suitable for him.

During the clashes between Tianma Island and the Survivors Alliance, Zhang Xin provided assistance on several occasions and played a certain role. His loyalty is guaranteed, but his abilities are not yet comprehensive and are in the process of improvement, with room for development.

Shen Linrui, who came from the Dragon Head Camp, is half of Lightning's master. Zhang Su had gone on missions with him and knew him to some extent.

He has the ability, but also the problems. Similar to Duan Wuhu, he is a bit sentimental and may act on emotion. Other than that, he is good. His combat strength is average among the elite legions.

Meng Changwei and Zhang Su from Daqiaobao Township are even more familiar with each other. From the day they met, Tianma Island and Daqiaobao Township have had a harmonious relationship and have never quarreled over materials or other matters. After the people from Daqiaobao Township came to Tianma Island, they worked diligently under Meng Changwei's leadership.

The only problem, as Yu Wen said, is that Meng Changwei takes better care of his own brothers, making him one of the slower groups to fully integrate into Tianma Island. This also shows that the team he leads has strong cohesion.

Zhang Su agreed with the first four people, but the last one...

"Old Yu, I know Xie Guangfa. He came with Meng Changwei and the others. He was in the north of Qing County before. He seems to be an old hunter with a leg ailment. In my memory, he's a very quiet person, but his fighting ability is not bad. Are you sure you can trust him?"

Although Zhang Su was wearing sunglasses, he didn't like to judge people based on prejudice. He genuinely didn't know anything about Xie Guangfa and couldn't recall any of his deeds even after trying hard to remember. He could only describe him as "unknown and obscure."

"Xie Guangfa is a very solitary person, but he is very good at executing orders and has a high success rate in completing tasks, which may be related to his previous profession."

Because he disliked interacting with people, living like a ghost in the camp, and also because he was extremely rule-abiding. In your young people's terms, Xie Guangfa was like an NPC in a game, strictly following orders, never overstepping boundaries, law-abiding, and dutiful.

After noticing Xie Guangfa's strengths, Yu Wen paid special attention to him for a period of time. While his strengths could be found individually in each person, combining them was not easy.

Zhang Su stroked his chin, listened to Yu Wen finish speaking, and slowly nodded, saying, "This person can be used to carry out missions, but I'm afraid he won't be able to integrate into the group. We can use him for now and observe him gradually. That's settled then..."

Qi Xiaoshuai, go with Meng Changwei to the armory later to check on his situation. Luezi, take Shen Linrui with you; as far as I know, he also knows some electronics.

"Xiao Chen, you guys go clear out the zombies, take Zhang Xin with you. That guy's got a lot of energy. Give him some tasks, and maybe create a little trouble for him too, see how he handles it."

The members who were assigned tasks all agreed that if they wanted to be given important responsibilities, they had to pass the assessment.

Everyone keenly noticed that of the five people Yu Wen mentioned, only Li Zongkai and Xie Guangfa hadn't been assigned tasks, so it was highly likely that the cleaning work would fall to them...

Those two guys are so unlucky.

"Old Yu, please inform Li Zongkai and Xie Guangfa to come up the mountain. That's the current arrangement. If you have any questions, please ask now."

After assigning the tasks, Zhang Su looked at everyone.

Those who had missions asked some detailed questions, and after receiving answers to each one, they all set off.

After Yu Wen informed Li Zongkai and Xie Guangfa, he arranged some internal affairs of the camp for the remaining personnel. No one was idle, and every cog in the machine was playing its part!
Chang Qingsheng was also in the restaurant. He was the only one who enjoyed the luncheon meat ration. He tasted the different flavor and looked at the unfamiliar faces. He was filled with mixed feelings. After everyone had left, he asked.

"Brother Su, what about me? What do I need to do?"

"I really forgot about you, the trainee member. There's not much work suitable for you at the camp. Come with me in a bit, I'll take you out for a look around."

Zhang Su hadn't forgotten; that was exactly what he planned. He intended to keep Chang Qingsheng by his side for a few days to observe him. The entire Tianma Valley was like a sophisticated machine; after the mountain guesthouse area "started up," the satellite villages at the foot of the mountain also sprang into action, filling the entire camp area with vitality!
Needless to say, it was a busy day for those who went out. Those who stayed at the camp were not idle either. The personnel-related work of Wild Dog Camp and Tongzhou Association gradually began. Since there were no advanced electronic devices to participate in the statistics, a lot of manpower was required.

Once everyone was focused on their work, the Tianma Island B&B area, the heart of the community, became the quietest place.

Li Zongkai and Xie Guangfa were summoned, and the two went up the mountain together. They watched as cars drove down the mountain, and carefully walked on the very edge...

Li Zongkai felt nothing was amiss and remained completely calm.

Xie Guangfa seemed very nervous. He had been living a law-abiding life and working diligently, so why was he suddenly summoned by the leader? This was very nerve-wracking!
Li Zongkai did not deliberately slow down, and Xie Guangfa could keep up. He had a leg problem, but with the improvement of his physical fitness, he had long since overcome the inconvenience in his life.

The two people know each other, but they are not familiar with each other at all. Since they met, they have exchanged no more than two sentences, and they don't greet each other when they meet. At most, they are just nodding acquaintances.

"Mr. Zhang."

"Chief Zhang..."

Pei Lan, the sentry, gave Li Zongkai and Xie Guangfa directions. The two arrived at Little Lucky Restaurant and saw the leader chatting with a stranger at the door.

Neither Li Zongkai nor Xie Guangfa participated in the towing of the aircraft carrier, so they did not know Chang Qingsheng at all.

"Old Li, Old Xie, come in quickly, there are cups and water over there, please help yourselves!"

Zhang Su waved very casually.

The two of them symbolically poured themselves a glass of water and sat down at the seats prepared for them.

"Mr. Zhang, what can I do for you?"

Li Zongkai smiled naturally, his eyes conveying no sense of distance.

"Chief Zhang."

Xie Guangfa's face was tense, his eyebrows were furrowed, and the word "nervous" was written all over his face.

"Go to the parking lot and wait for me."

After sending Chang Qingsheng away, Zhang Su turned to Li Zongkai and Xie Guangfa and said, "Don't be so nervous. First of all, I want to commend you both for your work recently. Your performance has been excellent, and we have seen it. Therefore, we have decided to assign you some more challenging tasks."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhang. Please feel free to give me any tasks you may have."

"Thank you for your recognition, Chief..."

"Have you heard the announcements from the camp these past few days?"

Zhang Su asked.

Both nodded. Xie Guangfa remained silent, while Li Zongkai summarized: "In short, we require the scattered survivors of Qincheng to immediately come to our camp. Those who are late will be cleared out."

“That’s right, the time has come. As mentioned in the previous broadcast, the investigation should begin no later than tomorrow. I’ve decided to assign this task to the two of you. You have six days to complete it. As for how many people you need, just tell me.”

Zhang Su is serious this time. Since Tianma Island has taken root in Qincheng, the surrounding wildflowers and grasses will either be used as decoration, fertilizer, or uprooted!
