Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

”What?”

Zhang Su was a bit surprised as he took the note and opened it.

”First rule, no stealing. Second rule... ahem.”

Zhang Su understood; this was Yuwen taking advantage of the moment to announce some discipline rules.

Back in school days, he really disliked this kind of behavior. Just when he was happily watching the performances on stage, someone would come up, cough a couple of times, and start reading out all sorts of annoying rules.

He never thought he would become what he once despised.

Yes, again.

Because this wasn’t the first time he played the role of someone he once disliked.

”Ahem, ahem!”

Zhang Su rolled his eyes inwardly and cleared his throat, successfully grabbing everyone’s attention.

”What I said earlier was too vague and hard to manage. The camp’s main administrator on internal affairs, Teacher Yu, provided me with more detailed rules. These rules will be distributed to each of you; I’ll read them out now, and you must remember them!”

”First rule, no stealing. Second rule, no fighting. Third rule, no absenteeism. Fourth rule, no killing of comrades. Fifth rule, no rape... Tenth rule, no betrayal! Any violations will be judged by the leader, and the leader reserves the right of interpretation?”

After reading, Zhang Su gently closed the paper, feeling a bit concerned, worried people might find these rules uncomfortable.

Actually, this worry was unnecessary. Yuwen had considered it thoroughly, taking advantage of Zhang Su’s previous one-versus-nine dominance. Everyone’s acceptance was high now!

These concerns were trivial though. Zhang Su was mainly dissatisfied with ”judged by the leader”; isn’t this just giving himself more trouble?

Some serious issues definitely required his judgment, but minor ones didn’t. It seemed necessary to establish a department to handle these matters soon.

Zhang Su also secretly admired Teacher Yu’s summary; there weren’t many loopholes. For instance, in the rule about no rape, it would logically follow with specifying females, yet it cleverly didn’t, showing thorough consideration.

After listening, people didn’t react strongly, because these rules weren’t exaggerated. Perhaps the only domineering one was the last statement, the leader reserves the right of interpretation. Thinking of this statement, they looked at the person on the tank.

If the camp needed a judge of justice, it would undoubtedly be King Yama.

”Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang! I have a question, may I ask?”

As the crowd quieted, suddenly a young man in the corner bounced up and down as if he had springs on his feet.

Wang Guangjun looked puzzled at his son beside him, wondering why this little rascal was always so energetic!

”I see you, stop jumping...”

Zhang Su instantly noticed Wang Zhetao. Frankly, he didn’t really want to speak with this kid in such a setting, but he eventually raised his hand indicating, ”You can ask just one question, go ahead!”

Many people looked strangely at Wang Zhetao, thinking the young brain sometimes works well. Many in the crowd had questions, yet only Wang Zhetao thought to ask, and now King Yama had effectively shut this path down...

Getting the chance to ask, Wang Zhetao felt uplifted, even with his hands bound he appeared spirited.

”Hello, King Yama. I’d like to ask, how can we join the wise and mighty Yama Corps?”

This question was well-placed, it immediately relieved many who were annoyed with him before, as they were eager to know this as well.

”That’s a good question, since it’s brought up, I’ll address it!”

Zhang Su also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the guy finally asked something sensible, because even if Wang Zhetao hadn’t mentioned it, he would’ve talked about it later.

”The Yama Corps has a special status, enjoying more resources and privileges within the camp. I believe any capable brothers and sisters would want to join the Yama Corps. Rest assured, the path is open, not just for core old members. We welcome new members.

The method to join the Yama Corps is simple: pass the assessment. I’ll announce the details soon. I can clarify that the selection process is lengthy, with every aspect of life being assessed.

The Yama Corps isn’t merely a fighting team, it’s like a big family. Joining the Yama Corps means gaining many more family members!”

This answer partially addressed people’s doubts, but it was obviously vague. The smart ones could hear, Celestial Horse Island hadn’t established a complete selection mechanism yet. Just like before, who could predict the population would soar from a hundred to over seven hundred.

Many previously set systems needed time!

”Alright, then we will...”

”Leader, leader!”

Just as Zhang Su was about to continue, a well-dressed woman seductively raised her hand and called enticingly.

In her area stood several graceful women gazing at Zhang Su with longing eyes.

When the woman spoke up, it attracted a lot of attention. Nearly everyone knew these made-up women came from the Soul-Devouring Cave of the Survivor Alliance. They couldn’t figure out why they interrupted.

Zhang Su frowned at the speaking woman, ”Ma Huihui, what do you want?”

The speaking woman was Ma Huihui, one of Liao Youzhi’s wives, who had followed Zhang Su’s suggestion and fully joined the Soul-Devouring Cave, soon being elected as the top choice by her sisters.

”Uh... you gave a man a chance to ask a question, give the women a chance too, please.”

Ma Huihui coyly clasped her hands together, bowing repeatedly.

If it were just her, it would be fine, but five or six beauties beside her also pleaded.

Compared to ordinary survivors, these women were noticeably dressed cleaner and had makeup on, standing out in the crowd which made many men’s eyes light up.

Zhang Su knew what these women were about, he could even guess what Ma Huihui might ask, pointing: ”I’ll give you one sentence to speak, hurry up!”

Hearing Zhang Su’s consent, Ma Huihui’s eyes lit up; as the top choice, she felt obligated to seek benefits for her sisters.

She said loudly, ”I want to ask when the Soul-Devouring Cave can reopen, we’re eager to relieve heroes’ fatigue, just waiting for King Yama’s approval!”

Wang Zhetao’s question earned silent cheers, and Ma Huihui’s question equally stirred hearts, making many men’s hearts race, though they dared not openly cheer, they still eagerly looked at Zhang Su.
