Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

“Those called, move out with me!”

Zhang Su was worried that time would bring unexpected changes, and he didn’t want to delay any further. What if Beita Camp’s people decided to move and hide during the night?

Besides, he had a significant advantage at night. To exaggerate a little, even if he went alone, he could potentially wipe out everyone at Beita Camp because the other side was basically blind!

“What?”

“Oh my… Brother Su, this is so sudden. Wasn’t it planned for tomorrow?”

“Hahaha, let’s do it!”

The people called thought Zhang Su was just planning ahead, never imagining they only had ten minutes to prepare. It was indeed rushed.

“Mr. Zhang, the celebration feast hasn’t even ended…”

Yuwen pointed at the food that was barely touched in front of them and said.

“Celebrate two victories at once, isn’t that efficient?”

Zhang Su stood up and looked at Yu Qing, “Do you have any new bombs you’ve been tinkering with? I want to repay them in kind!”

“There are… but I’m not too sure about the power.”

Yu Qing rubbed her hands nervously. She felt gratified that her weapons could be put to use but didn’t want any mistakes to spoil things.

“Not sure about the power? Are you worried it’s too powerful or not powerful enough?”

Zhang Su asked.

Yu Qing pursed her lips and said, “Before, the power was a bit too small, so this time… it might be quite large.”

“No problem with large power, just get it ready for me to take!”

After saying that, Zhang Su walked out of the dining area. When he reached the door, he turned back and said, “Oh, by the way, to avoid making you worry, I didn’t tell you, along with Liu Tianji, that today’s horde of zombies was led here by someone. Guess who!”

“What? Damn, it must be that bunch from Beita Camp!”

“I said it had to be them. Damn it, they’ll pay!”

Lu Yubo exploded instantly, putting down his bowl and chopsticks, saying, “I’ll eat even better when I get back!”

“Brother Su!”

Guo Dachao stood up, hesitantly saying, “I, I don’t have a gun, maybe I shouldn’t go.”

Among the ten people called, the most unexpected one was Guo Dachao. No one had thought Zhang Su would bring a newcomer from the camp for such an important task.

“No gun? That’s easy to handle, I’ll lend you a pistol to use.”

Zhang Su left these words and walked out of the dining area. Today, he had a good talk with Zheng Xinyu and Zhong Xiaoshan about Guo Dachao and Yang Wenjie’s performance in dealing with the zombie horde and felt they had no issues. He decided to leave Yang Wenjie at the camp and take Guo Dachao for further testing.

In an instant, the Celestial Horse Island safety camp was bustling with activity. Those named were preparing ammunition, checking weapons, and putting on gear…

“All my brothers and sisters who fought by my side know, though I have a dark heart, I’ve always disliked internal conflicts among humans. Even when meeting unreasonable people, I try to reason first. But everyone has seen what Beita Camp’s people did. Shouldn’t we eliminate such people quickly?”

Ten minutes later, in front of the parking lot, Zhang Su fully armed, was giving a pre-battle pep talk.

“Yes!”

“Absolutely, eliminate them quickly!”

“If people wrong me, I will surely retaliate!”

Everyone present knew that mercy had no value in the apocalypse. Even Yu Qing, usually known for her compassion, had no objections this time and even provided a Great Granade. Beita Camp’s people were truly malicious!

“You all following me are family. This is where family lives; it’s home. If family is bombed and home is assaulted by zombies, it’s intolerable. Get on the vehicles!”

With an order, the ten people besides Zhang Su stepped onto two RVs, started the engines, and slowly moved out.

“Come back soon, everyone, stay safe. I’ll wait for you to return for the feast, damn it!”

Zhao Dezhu stood in the crowd, waving his unharmed arm, grumbling. He felt like fate was playing tricks on him. Ever since setting up the camp on Celestial Horse Island, he had been continually injured, feeling safer when he was roaming outside.

He was extremely frustrated. The whole thing started with him getting shot. But when it was time to resolve the issue, he was left out…

The two vehicles drove away from the safety camp under the farewell of their companions. Along the mountain road, there were still unprocessed zombie corpses beside the road that, under the headlights, looked like Asura Hell, quite eerie.

“Guo Dachao!”

Zhang Su was driving and shouted towards the back, seeing three bubbles floating above Guo Dachao’s head in his eyes.

[Deep feeling][Reclusive][Strict with oneself and others]

He had used the Insight Label on Guo Dachao at the feast, and it was this quality of ‘deep feeling’ that made him think this guy was okay. There aren’t many who can maintain deep feelings in the apocalypse.

Be it for women, for brothers, or for the team, this personality trait was quite good.

The reclusiveness wasn’t a big issue, but the largest bubble made Zhang Su somewhat amused. Those who are strict with themselves and lenient with others are the most likable. But someone like Guo Dachao, who is strict with both himself and others, isn’t actually likable.

It’s like a leader at a company, who starts work at eight in the morning but arrives at six to clean up, requiring his subordinates to also start at six…

Perhaps because he hadn’t gained the camp’s full approval yet, Guo Dachao hadn’t exhibited this trait. But if displayed well, it could have a positive effect.

“Brother Su.”

Guo Dachao heard Zhang Su call him and quickly walked up. He didn’t know that Zhang Su had already seen through his personality traits. Holding onto the divider, he asked, “What’s up?”

“I heard from people that you and your wife performed bravely today and have been working hard these days. What do you think about the camp?”

Zhang Su asked.

Hearing Zhang Su speak, everyone in the cabin stopped their discussions and remained silent.

Guo Dachao squeezed out a smile and said, “It feels… cozy.”

“Right, feels like home, doesn’t it? Haha!”

Zheng Xinyu teased from the side.

“Yeah, it feels like home.” Guo Dachao nodded, not arguing, speaking from the heart.

Only after long periods of hardship and danger does one realize how blessed it is to have a stable place to sleep and eat.

Zhang Su glanced at Guo Dachao through the rearview mirror and said, “Considering the supplies you brought, your hard work these days, and your courage in killing zombies today, the previous grudge over the car theft is wiped clean. You and your wife are now official members of the safety camp!”

“Really? Thank you, thank you, Brother Su.”

Guo Dachao had been anxious following them, worried about being used as cannon fodder and his wife being threatened at the camp. Finally, he could put his mind at ease, believing that with Zhang Su’s status, he wouldn’t lie in front of so many people.

“Congratulations on becoming a partner of the black-hearted people.”

Zheng Xinyu slapped Guo Dachao on the shoulder in a friendly manner.

The rest also shook hands with Guo Dachao, expressing goodwill.

“No automatic rifle for you yet; you’re untrained, so it wouldn’t be effective. A pistol is more practical.”

While driving, Zhang Su pulled out a USP and asked Zheng Xinyu, sitting next to him, to pass it to the eager Guo Dachao.

“Don’t worry, I’ll be very cautious, really cautious!”

Holding the cold USP, Guo Dachao’s face showed a complex expression. This was the first time in his life he had touched a real gun, and it came more than a month after the apocalypse, handed over by someone he had previously wronged.

“Bozai, show Guo Dachao how to use a gun.”

“Sure, let the big brother teach you!”

Lu Yubo was always enthusiastic about teaching but seldom had the chance to show off.
