The 500 crossbowmen training at No. 1 Academy received orders from their Superhuman instructors,
to assemble in the villa's backyard immediately.
The 500 men stood at attention in five neat ranks outside the Tinkers' Construct Research Institute.
Pang Guang called them inside one by one.
Shen Jin, Yang Ao, and Lu Daizhen, who wore a hat, sat inside.
A small table and a chair had been set up in front of them.
"Sit!"
"Yes, sir!"
After their captain Dou Bei's persuasion, these soldiers had committed themselves wholeheartedly to Home No. 1.
Dou Bei had led by example. Despite being a Tier 2 Superhuman, he had taken the position of deputy captain on Li Zhe's team, becoming a core member of Home No. 1's Superhuman Brigade.
Naturally, the soldiers under him fully accepted Shen Jin's arrangements too.
They simply had not been put to use before, so Shen Jin had them train under the instructors for the time being,
while also teaching the students of No. 1 Academy how to use bows and crossbows.
Shen Jin covered their living expenses.
Shen Jin had never been stingy when providing for his troops. It was only another 500 mouths to feed.
There was no shortage of grain, vegetables, or meat.
Incidentally, the first batch of vegetable greenhouses overseen by Old Wang had begun producing steady harvests.
The pigs in D City had begun having piglets, and the pheasants were incubating their eggs.
Life on the farming front was gradually improving.
Fortunately, the zombie virus only affected humans, not Blue Star's plants or animals.
The old seeds were still usable, and animals could reproduce normally.
The greenhouses produced fresh vegetables every day, enough not only for Shen Jin's own needs, but also to put some into storage and sell some in the general store.
