Zombie Sister Strategy-Chapter 1379: The Meeting in the Base
In the morning, Lin Qiao had a meeting with the base managers.
Lin Feng, Yuan Tianxing, Xie Dong, the Deputy Chiefs of the base; Du Yuanxing, Chen Yuting, Yun Meng, Qiu Lili the captains; Leng Xuantong, Lin Hao and the others who were responsible for special scientific projects, were all summoned to the meeting.
Last night, Lin Qiao wrote down the plan against Sea City Base that Si Kongchen and Professor Bai made, and had it copied. At the moment, a copy of the plan was put on the table before everyone’s seat. All Beings Base and Sea City Base weren’t Si Kongchen’s sole targets. He planned to destroy all the other bases, including Heilong Base, Green Mountain Base and Mongols Base. He wanted every other base but his own to suffer attacks from Underground creatures.
People wore uniforms for the formal meeting. Lin Hao and Leng Xuantong were in white coats, while the others were wearing military uniforms. The ones from Base Number One wore green, while the ones from Base Number Two wore black. The styles and colors of their uniforms were different.
People took seats and put their hats by their right hands as Lin Qiao said, “Before you is Si Kongchen’s whole plan and some drawings I read in his office. Luckily, he was reading these when I got into his office. He seemed to be eager to take the second step.”
While she was speaking, everyone started reading the materials in front of them.
“Today, I’m gonna talk about three things. First, I’m gonna talk about those underground creatures. I’ve already put what I’ve seen underground into the material that you’re now reading, including some specific information. Second, I’ll talk about Si Kongchen’s plan. We need to come up with some solutions to prepare ourselves for his plan in advance. The third thing I’m going to talk about is those research materials that I brought back this time. We need to read through them and find out the information hiding within as soon as possible.” Lin Qiao rested her forearms on the desk and held her hands together as she glanced at everyone in the room and started speaking.
“About the reason why such a great number of underground creatures suddenly showed up on the earth’s surface, I’ve let Li Zheng bring the message to you earlier,” she continued. “I am now telling you guys for sure that there’s a level-nine creature down underground. None of us, nor any other living creature on the earth’s surface, is strong enough to defeat it, not even Dong Xiaowei from Green Mountain Base. That creature ordered the other underground creatures to come up to the earth’s surface. We definitely don’t want it to come out itself.”
On hearing that, Lin Feng couldn’t help but knit his brows and ask, “Why did it send those creatures up to the earth’s surface? Is the underground world not suitable for them to survive anymore?”
The others all looked at Lin Qiao, waiting for her answer.
Lin Qiao thought for a moment and said, “Through observation, I found the natural environment underground to be very poor. Herbivores barely exist down there. All that live there are carnivores. They do not eat plants but feed on each other. That was fine for the high-leveled ones, but for the low-leveled ones, it’s not a good thing. It’s really hard for them to find food down there. If they also feed on each other, underground creatures would die out sooner or later. I’m not sure if that’s the reason why the level-nine creature cast all the low-leveled ones out.”
“No wonder all the underground creatures which have gathered together for upgrading are all above level-three. Is that the reason?” Lin Feng thought for a moment and said.
“Currently, those underground creatures aren’t our main problem. At least, we still have catmint and the kind of fruit I found underground. With those, we’ll be able to deal with one or two waves of attacks from those underground creatures. Also, I don’t think the level-nine creature will come out anytime soon, so we don’t need to worry about that for now. Our priority now is to figure out how Si Kongchen will lead those creatures to our base. And secondly, we’re going to talk about his entire plan. The answer to the question I just brought up might be found in his proposal.”
“The first step of Sea City Base’s plan was supposed to be initiated in about two weeks. However, I’m not sure if he’s gonna stick with that schedule, because I destroyed a very important weapon lab that belonged to him. Maybe he’ll decide to start carrying out his plan ahead of schedule out of anger. Maybe he’s infuriated enough to take action right now. The first step of his plan is targeting Sea City Base. He plans to do the same to the other bases too. I’ve already told Wu Chengyue about what’s been happening in his base, and he’ll deal with it when he gets back.” Lin Qiao opened the file before her and said seriously.
Meanwhile, everyone read the proposal as quickly as they could. Learning that Si Kongchen planned to sneakily use zombie virus as a bioweapon against Sea City Base, they couldn’t help but furrow their brows into deep frowns.
“Is he crazy? How can he hurt other bases like this only for his very own interest? Don’t the lives of the people from other bases mean anything to him?” Qiu Lili said out loud before the others.
“He doesn’t care about anyone who has no value for him. I wonder how he managed to become the leader of Huaxia Base. Does pure power make someone a leader?” Yun Meng joined the conversation.
Lin Qiao gave her a glance and said, “Mengmeng is right. Violence was indeed what Si Kongchen used to bring the entire Huaxia Base under control. That’s not a strange thing.”
One had to be strong enough to control two million people. He made those people follow his lead by threatening and tempting them. Threats were the most important means, and to do that, he needed strength. The temptation was only supplementary.
The others weren’t as surprised to know about what Si Kongchen had done as the two girls were. They had that guessed out long ago. What Lin Feng was worried about was if Sea City Base would be able to deal with the virus that Si Kongchen had planted in their base. After all, the sources of the virus were already inside.
“Wu Chengyue will be able to handle it, right?” He looked at Lin Qiao and asked.
Lin Qiao glanced at him and said, “I’ve given him a list of the names of all the people who are carrying the virus. If he still can’t solve the problem, I’d consider myself blind.”
“There’s a name list? In that case, it won’t be a problem.” Lin Feng shrugged and didn’t ask any other questions.
