Need to Keep a Handle on Recruitment Standards

Chen Wang and his team were fully armed as they marched forward.

Chen Wang possessed extremely keen Divine Sense and reacted very quickly. Having him in the team was like having an extra detector. They avoided many Zombies along the way and did not have any direct conflicts with them.

Chen Wang's skillful movement and awareness greatly surprised his teammates.

The group temporarily settled down near a building.

Yang Jun, with his shifty eyes, exclaimed, "Captain, I previously thought you were just a powerful expert, but now it seems you are indeed a good leader. Your vision and awareness are beyond what ordinary people can match!"

Chen Wang was smoking at the moment. He had just taken a puff of his cigarette, which was held between his fingers, when his hand suddenly trembled.

He gave Yang Jun a deep look. "It's a waste of your talents to be Gene Warrior."

Yang Jun was flattered. "Captain, what profession do you think I should pursue?"

Chen Wang took another drag of his cigarette and exhaled a smoke ring. "You should be a poet; fighting and killing don't suit your temperament."

Yang Jun exclaimed in surprise, "Me?"

"I never knew I had this talent before. Captain, your words are like a guiding light in a sea of suffering, illuminating my path. I will study them carefully!"

Chen Wang: "..."

No way, is this guy crazy?! Chen Wang gave Yan Zhi a resentful look. What kind of person did she hire?

The beautiful and mature female instructor was paying attention to her surroundings. When she felt Chen Wang's gaze, she turned her head and met his eyes.

Yan Zhi smiled slightly, "Yang Jun is an excellent reconnaissance soldier."

She said it casually.

Chen Wang took a deep drag of his cigarette, looked at the weasel-faced man again, and then looked away.

"In wartime, he would probably be the best candidate to be a traitor."

He shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

He was smoking to himself. Dou Wu, a thin, wiry man who looked extremely fierce, walked over and asked, "Captain, are you Tier 4 Soldier now?"

Chen Wang was taken aback. "Why do you ask that?"

Dou Wu said, "Seeing the momentum you showed when you tore those Zombies apart, and how strong you were, I felt that you had already exceeded the limit of the third level."

"Therefore, I was somewhat curious."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.

Dou Wu's question was somewhat offensive.

Miao De, who was more composed, immediately stepped forward and pulled him aside, scolding, "Don't pry into the captain's privacy! Why do you have so many questions!"

Dou Wu was scolded by him, but he didn't take it to heart. He scratched his head and smiled at Chen Wang, "I didn't mean anything by it, Captain. I was just a little curious."

Chen Wang smiled faintly, "It's nothing."

This matter could have ended there, but Dou Wu still inappropriately asked, "Captain, how can I become as strong as you?"

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow as he looked at the extremely capable man, who resembled a venomous snake.

How can you become as strong as me?

He smiled.

Why is this guy talking so much nonsense? Am I supposed to tell you to cultivate Cultivation Method and then practice body cultivation? "Train hard," Chen Wang said calmly, taking a drag of his cigarette.

"Captain, could you teach me your training methods?" Dou Wu asked expectantly.

Upon hearing this, even Yan Zhi turned to look at Dou Wu, frowning as she said, "Dou Wu, how can you talk to the captain like that!"

Chen Wang glanced into Dou Wu's eyes.

This guy's eyes were very clear, filled with fanaticism and an obsession with becoming stronger.

"Push-ups, squats, running, sit-ups—do each one to your limit, no matter how many sets," Chen Wang said.

Dou Wu's eyes lit up. "It's that simple?"

"Will I be as powerful as you that way?"

He was somewhat excited and couldn't help but clench his fist.

What's with all this chuunibyou vibes...? Chen Wang couldn't help but glance at Yan Zhi again, his gaze somewhat resentful.

He then said, "Strength comes not only from the outside world, but also from your heart, and most importantly, from a core standard."

Apart from Dou Wu, everyone else probably realized that Chen Wang was joking.

However, Chen Wang spoke so seriously that even the usually composed Miao De turned his gaze over with some curiosity.

After all, Chen Wang's combat strength is astonishing. The rumors before were that he was extremely terrifying, and today's firsthand experience of tearing apart Zombies with his bare hands is even more incredible!

Chen Wang took another drag of his cigarette and said calmly, "You've gone bald, which means you've become stronger."

Dou Wu nodded vigorously, suddenly realizing, "So that's how it is!"

Yan Zhi:"..."

Miao De: "..."

Yang Jun: "..."

Seven or eight people were gathered together; they were a well-equipped and well-trained squad from the Church.

One of them was a long-haired man who casually tied his long hair into a ponytail at the back of his head and had an earring in his ear.

Everyone was on guard, but the young man was holding a book and reading it.

The woman on the cover has a very hot figure, completely naked, posing in various seductive positions, and the content inside is quite explosive! The young man with a ponytail is leaning against the wall, occasionally scratching his crotch and then smelling it.

This person is actually quite handsome, with a pair of captivating eyes, and his smile has a kind of allure that makes people swoon.

But his actions were extremely ungraceful, like those of a street thug.

A seemingly composed young man had bloodshot eyes; beneath his bulletproof vest was a faded short-sleeved shirt.

His attire was extremely simple, and the gun he was holding was a carbine with a stock that was worn shiny.

The two men were dressed rather strangely, but no one dared to underestimate them.

This squad is mostly composed of Tier 3 Soldier, all from the Adjudication Team, while these two are Tier 4 Soldier.

The young man with the Gao Ma and earring was named Xu Bo. He had an outstanding record, having once single-handedly killed a high-ranking member of Shengda and wiped out the enemy's security force.

It should be noted that the high-ranking official had a fourth-level expert by his side at the time, but despite this, he managed to wipe out the entire security force and the soldiers around him all by himself.

No one witnessed the process; they were simply very wary of this young man named Xu Bo.

This man is capricious; when he's happy, he'll invite a dozen or twenty women to a hotel for a wild party, but when he's unhappy, he can strip naked and run wildly through the streets.

Although Gene Warrior all have some personality flaws, this person's behavior doesn't seem to be caused by the Gene Serum, but rather as if he already has these flaws.

However, he is a sharp blade, so he will be released to perform some tasks when necessary.

The more composed young man was a captain of the Adjudication Team, but he didn't have any team members under him.

The Adjudication Team he once led had at least a dozen members, most of whom were third-tier experts and possessed formidable strength.

But now he is all alone, and this time he was specially recruited.

Before being recruited, he was washing dishes at a guesthouse in the Apocalypse Shelter.

Yes, it's just such an ordinary job.

His name is Li Weidong, a rather ordinary name.

Aside from his simpler clothes and older gun, this man was otherwise quite normal, much more so than the long-haired youth.

Moreover, he was once a captain-level figure, unlike that long-haired youth who always fought alone, Lone Wolf- like existence.

But at this moment, the members of the Church's ruthless Adjudication Team looked at him with even greater fear.

In contrast, they only felt a little creeped out by the long-haired youth.

But how many normal people are on the Adjudication Team? They're all lunatics!

Only those with the most severe mental illnesses can become members of the Adjudication Team.

They feared Li Weidong for only one reason: the squad Li Weidong previously led hadn't died at the hands of the Three Great Powers, nor at the hands of Zombies, but was killed by him! Overnight, they were all hanged in a ruin! This incident caused a sensation in the Church at the time. If it weren't for a senior member of the Church protecting Li Weidong, Li Weidong would probably have been dealt with.

That's absolutely inhuman! They even killed their own people!

His reason was simple. "They slaughtered civilians and deserved to die!"

Damn it! Judging from this reason, you can't tell at all that he's a captain of the Church's Adjudication Team.

This time, he was given strict orders not to kill his colleagues or his team members under any pretext when he went out on this mission.

But these people still looked at Li Weidong with some fear.

I haven't heard of the long-haired youth having any record of killing his own people, but Li Weidong is different. His record of wiping out the Church's Adjudication Team is verifiable!

At this moment, among the Tier 3 Soldier of these Church was a middle-aged man. He was burly, with extremely developed muscles on his arms that appeared to have a faint metallic sheen.

Before these two "living fathers" arrived, he was the nominal leader of this team.

His Qin Baoshan, and he is a third-tier Metal Man with extremely strong defensive capabilities.

Looking at the two men, one staring blankly and the other looking at a picture book, he twitched his lips, cleared his throat, and whispered, "Captain Xu, should we continue forward, or find a place to scout ahead first?"

The Captain Xu he mentioned was this long-haired young man Xu Bo.

The reason why Li Weidong was not appointed as the team leader was because of his past mistakes, and they were afraid that the team would repeat the same errors.

Hearing the title of "captain" made Li Weidong excited again, stirring up some memories.

Xu Bo, the long-haired youth, looked away from the brochure with its eye-catching cover and pursed his lips. "The picture quality is really bad, and the woman doesn't know how to pose. She's not seductive at all."

Qin Baoshan was taken aback.

He finally understands what it means to talk at cross purposes.

However, the long-haired youth Xu Bo continued, "Keep going in, don't stop here. The most core area has the highest value, don't even explore the rest."

His words carried weight, he acted decisively, and he was the top leader in charge of this operation.

Qin Baoshan nodded. "Okay, I understand!"

The long-haired youth put away the sketchbook he was holding and placed it in his backpack.

He stretched and said with a smile, "Actually, you don't have to ask me about everything. You can make your own decisions."

Qin Baoshan said seriously, "How can this be? Captain Xu, you are the person in charge. We brothers will all listen to you!"

The long-haired youth smiled slightly. He didn't seem so neurotic at the moment, and his gaze went into the depths.

"It is said that the predecessor of the Morning Star Research Institute is located here. As long as we find that research institute and take away the data inside, it will be a great achievement!"

Qin Baoshan's eyes lit up immediately.

The predecessor of Morning Star Research Institute was located here!

This news immediately caught the attention of the Adjudication Team.

The long-haired youth continued, "Why would the higher-ups send two fourth-tier soldiers and such an elite squad here? If there weren't enough benefits, no one would be willing to waste their manpower in a place like this!"

He spoke with utmost seriousness, but then he reached into his pants, sniffed it, and patted Qin Baoshan on the shoulder.

"You're a good guy, you've got the makings of a team leader. Keep up the good work. If you make it back alive this time, you'll definitely get a promotion."

The long-haired youth smiled, looking extremely sincere.

Even though he was patted on the shoulder with that hand, Qin Baoshan didn't dare to say anything, only smiled awkwardly, but he was very surprised in his heart, "The predecessor of Morning Star Research Institute? Did they start researching it before Winter? Is that why such a powerful Zombie Tide broke out here?"

Then his eyes lit up, "Could it be... there used to be a human specimen collection here!"

He had a vague idea in his mind; this news was indeed very explosive.

Once this gets out, Three Great Powers will likely be implicated in this matter!

Throughout the entire ordeal, Li Weidong, dressed simply and holding an old-fashioned carbine, simply stood there in a daze.

Seeing him like this, the long-haired youth walked over and smiled, "Weidong, why are you standing here alone in a daze? What are you thinking about?"

Li Weidong's voice was very magnetic, sounding like a deep bass. "I missed washing dishes for three days, so my wages for those days will be deducted again."

Even the long-haired youth's unconventional thinking was somewhat difficult to keep up with.

"Were you thinking about this just now?"

Li Weidong nodded.

The long-haired youth laughed, "That's easy, the Church will make up the difference for you."

He originally meant to say, "If all else fails, I'll get rid of your heartless boss."

But considering Li Weidong's character, he was unwilling to provoke this guy.

Upon hearing this, Li Weidong shook his head. "Earning this kind of money is not as reliable as earning money by washing dishes."

The long-haired youth shook his head, thinking to himself, "This person's mind is really not normal."

"I'm feeling better."

However, if others knew about his thoughts, it's hard to know what they would think.

Apart from the two of them, the rest of the members of the Adjudication Team were all captivated by the predecessor of the Morning Star Research Institute.

I was filled with curiosity about the secrets hidden within.

On the other side, Chen Wang and his group continued their journey after a short rest.

They moved extremely quickly and did not engage in direct combat with the Zombies, thus traveling very fast.

Looking at his team, Chen Wang wanted to tell Yan Zhi that he needed to control the recruitment standards in the future. There was a sycophant, a chuunibyou, and a taciturn person.

"If other people knew that everyone in my team was like this, wouldn't they think I'm abnormal too?"

Chen Wang thought to himself.

Just then, a burst of gunfire suddenly erupted from ahead! Bang bang bang bang!

The gunfire was extremely intense, accompanied by explosions.

A deafening roar! A steel rubble was blasted through! Thank you all for your support, thank you for your monthly tickets and recommendations!
