Chapter 300 - 300 Undercover
The Missouri had already been refueled, and supplies had been piled up as much as possible.
“Do come often in the future!
“You too, Mr. Tang!”
!!
Hua sent everyone off at the pier.
There are a few human camps in Hong Kong.
“Do as you see fit. If you don’t like something, just get rid of it.”
Wang Ran reminded her.
“Don’t worry, all the zombies in Hong Kong are under my control now. If somebody gets on my nerves, I’ll kill them on the spot.
“I’ll also get the logistics and storage work done as soon as possible. The next time you come, you can ship your supplies,” Hua said with a smile.
Wang Ran nodded.
Not only did he save Tang Tang’s father, but he also took over Hong Kong, a port city. It was a fruitful trip.
After saying their goodbyes, the Missouri set sail in the direction of Ningbo-Zhoushan…
On a road not far from N-City, four Asian men jumped out of a car.
They took out their casual clothes from their backpacks and changed out of their mercenary camouflage uniforms.
“We’re only a few kilometers away from N-City. Everyone, stay alert!”
The leader of the team, Wu Liang, reminded them.
“Captain, will we be able to sneak in successfully?” one of the team members asked.
“Remember, from now on, you’re not allowed to call me Captain!
“I’m Wu, and you’re Zhou, Li, and Wang. Do you understand?”
Wu Liang asked sternly.
“Understood!”
The three team members responded in unison.
“This time, the company has sent us to find out more about N-City.
“If possible, we’re to assassinate their leader.”
“From the information the company has, that guy’s strength may be above rank-six, so we don’t have any chance to fight him head-on.
“We need to hide, lay low, and slowly look for an opportunity,” Wu Liang briefed his team.
They had all seen the video of Wang Ran’s raid on Branches One and Three.
Although the video was from 20 days ago, Wang Ran was already at least at rank-six at that time.
Wu Liang deduced that the current Wang Ran might already have the strength of a rank-seven.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to destroy the entire Hawaii base.
“I heard that N-City is has been walled up. Can we sneak in?” Wang asked.
“I’ve asked around. They’ve been building a lot of buildings recently and are in urgent need of manpower.
“If Awakened Ones like us go, we will definitely be put in an important position. We might even be able to become small leaders.
“That’s right. We have to keep a low profile. Otherwise, we’ll be easily exposed.
“We are all rank-four Awakened Ones. Why don’t we just lower our ranks by two? that way, we won’t attract any attention, and we can also gain some ground.”
“Can a rank-two Awakened One even get any recognition?” Wang asked.
“You think it’s our company?
“This is just an ordinary city. How could it have a high proportion of Awakened Ones like our company?
“I’ve done some research. In general, it is already considered pretty good for a camp to have over ten Awakened Ones.”
“We’re four rank-two Awakened Ones. It’s impossible for them to not take us seriously,” Wu Liang said confidently.
The group changed their clothes and left their cars and equipment behind, heading towards N-City.
They were professional agents and paid attention to details.
They had not eaten or drunk anything since yesterday, so their lips were dry and their faces were pale.
After changing into the old clothes, the four of them looked like refugees.
After more than an hour, they finally saw the city walls of N-City.
“F*ck, Captain… Wu, this wall is even more spectacular than the Great Wall!
“We can’t blast through this without modern weapons!”
Wang sighed.
“Indeed…
“This level of defense is almost the same as the headquarters of the company.
“But the walls of the company headquarters aren’t that long…”
Wu Liang could not help but sigh.
“Wu, I think they’re still working on it!
...
“Why don’t we contact the company and call them directly before they finish the construction?
“When they’re done, there won’t be such an opportunity anymore,” Li suggested.
“Don’t be rash!
“Our mission is to lay low. We can’t jeopardize our positions.
“Let’s go and greet them.”
Wu Liang took the lead and walked toward the city wall that was under construction.
“Stop! Who are you?”
Zhu Ming, who was supervising the work, stopped Wu Liang and the other three.
Wu Liang adjusted his state of mind and walked forward.
“Big brother! We are refugees from the West.
“All the cities along the way have been wiped out. We really have nowhere to go.
...
“Do you take in survivors here?
“The four of us are Awakened Ones!”
Wu Liang’s sincerity, coupled with his weather-beaten face, was very convincing.
“Awakened Ones?
“What rank?” Zhu Ming asked indifferently.
During this period of time, the mutant fruits and vegetables had been harvested on a large scale, and 80% of the residents in N-City had become Awakened Ones.
Although most of them were rank-one Awakened Ones, their sheer numbers had greatly improved the strength of N city. Even the construction speed had drastically increased.
Currently, N-City had no lack of Awakened Ones.
“The four of us are rank-two!
“We’ll do anything you ask of us, as long as you’re willing to take us in and give us food to eat.”
Wu Liang pretended to plead.
“Second rank? Alright then.
“I’m lacking a few strong brick-moving workers.
“You guys can stay here and move bricks. Food and accommodation are provided, and you’ll work for 12 hours a day,” Zhu Ming said after some thought.
Bricks?!
Wu Liang and the three underlings behind him were stunned.
They were rank-four Awakened Ones! Although they had deliberately lowered their ranks to avoid getting attention, they did not deserve to be mere bricklayers!
How could Awakened Ones end up doing such menial work?
‘This guy must be playing with us!
“Moving bricks is the simplest of chores out there. If you know how to operate an excavator, that’s fine too. There’s technical work for you to do.
“How is it? Do you want to do it? Feel free to leave,” Zhu Ming said indifferently.
Many people had been filing into N-City. If they were willing to work, Zhu Ming would be happy to take them in.
Otherwise… Wang Ran had said that they were not the kind to take in idle folk, so they should just scram back to where they came from.
“F*ck!
“We’ll do it!” Wu Liang said, suppressing his anger.
Their goal was to sneak into N-City, so they couldn’t retreat just because they encountered a little difficulty.
‘It’s just moving bricks! It wasn’t anything difficult!’
“Alright, you guys must be thirsty and hungry. Go get some food over there and get to work immediately after you’re done.”
After Zhu Ming finished speaking, he went back to supervise the work, not giving them a second thought…
