Chapter 86 Committee Member Wang Tao (Asking for Monthly Votes at the End of the Month)

Although there are more than 500 survivors in the Shuize base, there are not many combat-capable people, barely 100.

Among these 100 people, there are only 18 security forces, including 3 committee members, which are also the strongest 18 people in the base.

The soldier who died today is a security soldier.

Whether from a personal perspective or from the overall strength of the base, the sacrifice of a security soldier is unacceptable. Especially this sacrifice could have been avoided...

The lobby of the comprehensive building.

Xiang Hongbin and his party and Wang Tao and others are all there, and Wei Zhenguo and several other committee members have also come.

Guo Chao and other staff members are silently packing up the spoils, and Xiang Hongbin is standing by the window, smoking a blood-stained cigarette fiercely.

"Can silence solve the problem?"

Wei Zhenguo sat on a makeshift wheelchair with a very ugly face.

The soldiers lowered their heads in silence.

Wei Zhenguo raised his head, looked at Xiang Hongbin, and said sternly.

"Xiang Hongbin, what happened? Why is Xiao Wu gone?"

Xiang Hongbin punched the wall hard, then turned back and glared at Wei Zhenguo.

"Gone is gone, why are there so many whys!"

Wei Zhenguo was so angry that his chest rose and fell violently.

"Xiang Hongbin! What's your attitude? You are a member of the base committee and the captain of your team. You are responsible for the death of your team members! You are not only responsible for your team members, but also for the base!"

Facing Wei Zhenguo's roar, Xiang Hongbin looked at him without showing any weakness.

"It was me, I killed him. Are you satisfied with this answer? Ah!"

Bang!

Xiang Hongbin kicked the wall hard again.

Wei Zhenguo took a deep breath and tried to control his anger.

"The specific situation, I want to know the specific situation!"

Xiang Hongbin glared at Wei Zhenguo again, then pointed at one of his team members and said:

"You, tell him!"

The soldier hesitated a little, but still told the specific situation loudly.

…

This morning, Xiang Hongbin and his team finally found a chance to return—they were trapped before.

The way back was safe and there were no accidents. But when they were about to reach the Shuize base, they suddenly saw a special zombie with exposed organs.

This kind of zombie was the first time they had seen it, and they didn't know what abilities it had. But it was a special zombie at first glance, and special zombies would explode zombie crystal cores!

Xiang Hongbin had fused several zombie crystal cores, and he had also seen the superpower Wei Zhenguo mentioned. Although there was no definite evidence, Xiang Hongbin knew that fusing zombie crystal cores must be the key to obtaining superpowers!

So when he met a special zombie on the road, he had no reason to let it go!

Especially when some of them had guns and were quite powerful.

However, this special zombie was in the middle of a large group of zombies. Xiang Hongbin had been out for so long, and his ammunition was almost used up, so it was unlikely that he would attack hard. Moreover, a large number of gunshots would attract more zombies, and they only had a few bullets, so it would definitely not work.

So Xiang Hongbin decided to wait. These zombies were always moving around. He wanted to wait for a chance for a special zombie to be left alone.

As long as the special zombie was left alone, they would rush forward, quickly deal with it, and then retreat. Perhaps they didn't even need to use guns. There were six of them in total. They could sneak attack the zombies when it was raining heavily and the zombies' senses were reduced. If each of them chopped a few times, would the zombie still be dead?

After waiting for a while, Xiang Hongbin was pleasantly surprised to find that this special zombie had indeed left the team and was walking slowly towards an alley.

Xiang Hongbin knew that his chance had come.

So he asked everyone to get ready and attack at his command. Among them, the soldier named Xiao Wu was closest to the self-destructing zombie.

After receiving Xiang Hongbin's order to attack, Xiao Wu rushed over first with a rifle with a bayonet.

He stabbed the zombie hard from behind, but the blow did not penetrate, only half of it. The bayonet was almost stuck.

Xiao Wu was amazed at the opponent's defense, but he didn't panic. They had encountered special zombies with strong defense before, but they still died under their watch.

All he needed to do now was to wait for his teammates to attack together.

But what he and other teammates didn't expect was that after being stabbed, this special zombie did not make any attacking moves, but the exposed organs on its chest rose and fell violently, as if it was angry, and its chest was getting bigger and bigger.

Then... with a bang, the zombie exploded!

Everyone was stunned. Not to mention the loud explosion, Xiao Wu was still next to the zombie!

When everyone looked again, the special zombie and Xiao Wu were gone, only a pile of rotten meat and a rifle with a bayonet.

Without giving everyone a chance to be sad, the sound of the special zombie's self-explosion instantly attracted the attention of the surrounding zombies, and those crazy zombies with fast speeds also appeared after hearing the sound.

Xiang Hongbin asked people to put away the weapons and equipment left by Xiao Wu and the zombie crystal core that was shining in a pile of rotten meat.

In fact, if they run at this time, they still have a great chance, after all, they are all driving cars.

But Xiang Hongbin looked at these zombies, he did not run directly, but took out three homemade bombs. He wanted to kill all these zombies and bury Xiao Wu with them!

The power of homemade bombs is much greater than that of grenades. After adjusting the countdown of more than ten seconds, the soldiers threw them at the zombies.

As a result, only two of the three bombs exploded, and the other one did not. The damage caused was much smaller.

There was no choice but to shoot the remaining zombies. Fortunately, they still had some bullets, and they quickly cleared all the zombies on the road. Xiang Hongbin asked the driver to rush over.

At this time, the bomb that had not exploded before exploded! Coincidentally, the bomb was next to everyone's car.

The three cars were almost overturned.

If these three cars were not explosion-proof military vehicles and were still some distance away from the bombs, it is estimated that their team would have to be explained here...

The explosion of the bomb will naturally attract zombies, but the zombies around have been cleared by them. It takes some time for the zombies in the distance to come over. Xiang Hongbin and others resisted the dizziness and retreated quickly.

Finally, before more zombies arrived, they returned to the vicinity of the base. There were only more than a dozen crazy zombies chasing them, and the soldiers in the base provided fire support and quickly solved them.

…

“…This is the specific situation.”

The soldier’s tone was a little sad.

After hearing this, Wei Zhenguo pointed at Xiang Hongbin and trembled with anger.

“You, you——”

This is a tragedy that can be avoided. They have already returned to their doorstep. Why don’t they just hold on a little longer? They have to go and get themselves into trouble!

Not only did they kill Xiao Wu, they almost killed the entire team!

If it weren’t for the fact that there were so many people around, he would have scolded them.

Member Liu He beside Wei Zhenguo was sad and embarrassed at the same time. Because these custom bombs were made by him, although he said that he didn’t guarantee that there would be no problem 100%, but one of the three had a problem, and this probability was somewhat unreasonable.

Members Ren Jie and Feng Mingan didn’t say much. Although this was the base’s business, it was also their internal affairs of the security army, and it was not easy for them to intervene. However, both of them looked very sad. Every soldier who has survived the apocalypse is a treasure...

"Captain Xiang, the items have been counted..."

Guo Chao carefully handed a list to Xiang Hongbin.

Xiang Hongbin took a quick look, quickly signed his name, and walked into the rain without looking back.

"You all, go and have a good rest!"

Wei Zhenguo looked at the other four soldiers and sighed.

"Yes!"

The soldiers immediately saluted Wei Zhenguo, and one of them took out something wrapped in a cloth bag from his backpack and handed it to Wei Zhenguo.

"Captain Wei, this is the zombie crystal core..."

Wei Zhenguo took it, and he felt that this zombie crystal core was heavy, heavier than any zombie crystal core he had seen before.

"Let's all go!"

Wei Zhenguo waved his hand, and the other onlookers left quickly.

Wang Tao was also about to leave, but was stopped by Wei Zhenguo.

"Wang Tao, wait a minute."

Wei Zhenguo gave him a look.

Wang Tao stopped.

Han Rui nodded to Wang Tao, and then left with Sun Weiguang and Ou Yingying.

As they left, Wang Tao faintly heard Sun Weiguang complain:

"Wife, did you go out to look for me? No? You...you don't care about me! I'm so worried about you..."

Wang Tao shook his head and looked at Wei Zhenguo.

"Let's go find Xiang Hongbin. We can't forget the business."

The business he was talking about was naturally Wang Tao becoming a committee member.

Liu He, Ren Jie and Feng Mingan, who were standing by, looked at Wang Tao with some curiosity. They had heard from Wei Zhenguo that Wang Tao was a superpower. They hadn't seen a superpower yet...

"Will it be..."

Wang Tao frowned.

Just now, Xiang Hongbin and Wei Zhenguo were at loggerheads. Xiang Hongbin was probably angry or sad now. It didn't feel good to find someone.

"Don't worry, he wants to see the superpower more than I do!"

Since Wei Zhenguo said it was okay, Wang Tao didn't care, but he looked at Wei Zhenguo and said with concern.

"Is your injury okay?"

"It's a minor injury, let's go!"

Liu He pushed Wei Zhenguo's wheelchair, and several people went to another building with Wang Tao. As soon as they entered, they saw Xiang Hongbin smoking in the corner.

"What are you doing here? Do you still want to continue to criticize me, or do you want to laugh at me?"

Xiang Hongbin's face was a little impatient.

Wei Zhenguo didn't answer his question directly, but pointed at Wang Tao and said:

"Superpower, do you have any objection to becoming the eighth member of our base?"

"Superpower?"

Xiang Hongbin was stunned for a moment, then immediately ran over with an excited look on his face, staring at Wang Tao.

"Are you really a superpower?"

Wang Tao didn't waste any words and directly demonstrated his superpowers.

Just like last time, with a snap of his fingers, a visible shock wave spread out from his fingertips. The range was not large, and it seemed that it had no power, but it was a real superpower.

Wang Tao had many ways to stimulate superpowers, but he thought this was the coolest.

But what he and others didn't expect was that Xiang Hongbin suddenly reached out and grabbed the shock wave that Wang Tao had stimulated.

"Don't--"

Before Wang Tao could shout, he saw Xiang Hongbin suddenly fall back as if he had caught something explosive.

Bang--

He sat on the ground with a look of shock on his face, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

【-115】

【606/815】

Wang Tao was speechless. This man is so reckless! You don't even ask, just use your hands to receive the superpower? His shock wave looks quite mini, but its power is real. After all, he is not too skilled. This is the weakest state he can control.

But even so, Xiang Hongbin was knocked out of more than a hundred blood and suffered internal injuries. Fortunately, he is a shock wave. If it were a cutting or other power, Xiang Hongbin's hand would probably be gone...

"Are you OK!"

Ren Jie quickly helped Xiang Hongbin up.

"It's okay...ahem...tui"

He spit out bloody phlegm to Hongbin, and then looked at Wang Tao with fiery eyes.

"You are really a superpower! Did you eat the zombie crystal core? What does it feel like to be a superpower? How do you know if you have superpowers?"

Xiang Hongbin asked with his mouth like a machine gun.

"..."

Wang Tao was speechless, but Wei Zhenguo came to the rescue for him.

"If you have any questions from now on, you can ask him. Now it's our common question - do you have any objections to Comrade Wang Tao becoming the eighth member of the base?"

"No objection, of course no objection! We agreed at the beginning that the superpower users in the base can be directly promoted to committee members!"

Xiang Hongbin nodded quickly.

"good."

Wei Zhenguo nodded, and then looked at Liu He, Ren Jie and Feng Ming'an beside him.

"We have no objection either!"

The three of them spoke one after another.

"very good!"

Wei Zhenguo looked at Wang Tao and said:

"According to the rules of our committee, when it comes to decisions on major matters, more than two-thirds can be decided. We now have a total of seven committee members, and five of them agree. The other two committee members are outside, and we only have five people here. But it's enough. Now the five of us agree that you will become a member of the base committee. Do you agree? Of course, don't rush to express your position. I have to explain the committee's responsibilities clearly to you..."

After Wei Zhenguo said something about rights and obligations, everyone looked at Wang Tao.

"I agree."

Bang bang bang!

Several people clapped quickly.

"Congratulations to Comrade Wang Tao - oh no, I will call you Commissioner Wang Tao from now on!"

Ren Jie shook hands with Wang Tao warmly. He was originally the deputy county magistrate of Shuize County, but he was not used to this subtitle. He was more accustomed to the title of committee member. He believed Wang Tao would also like it.

Sure enough, Wang Tao suddenly said with a smile:

“I’ll have to trouble Commissioner Ren to take care of me in the future!”

After everyone was polite, they took Wang Tao to the top floor of the complex. This is the exclusive office space for these committee members, which overlooks the entire Shuize Base.

But usually, everyone rarely arrives. Because everyone is either searching for supplies outside, resting at home, or too tired to climb the stairs...

After all, this is the end of the world. There is no idle work like just sitting in an office. Everyone must play their role, including committee members.

There is a round table in the hall on the top floor. There are seven chairs in front of the table, representing the seven people with the highest status in the Mizusawa base.

Ren Jie brought a chair again and invited Wang Tao to sit down.

Don't tell me, sitting here, my whole person feels different.

However, Wang Tao has not forgotten that what he relies on for survival in the apocalypse is the power in his hands. This feeling of being a superior person is enough to feel it for a little bit, and cannot be addicted.

"Did the other two committee members never come back?"

Wang Tao asked curiously.

Shuize Base now has a total of eight committee members including him, namely Wei Zhenguo, Xiang Hongbin, and Lu Gang from the former security army, Feng Ming'an and Song Jinghong from the police department, former deputy county magistrate Ren Jie, and electronic technology expert Liu He , and Wang Tao himself.

Wang Tao has met five of them, leaving only Lu Gang and Song Jinghong.

I heard that Lu Gang is a young man about the same age as Wang Tao. Xiang Hongbin and Wei Zhenguo are both his superiors. His ability to become a committee member depends on his marksmanship, which is the strongest in the entire base.

Song Jinghong is an old policeman and Han Rui's old leader. Han Rui said that he is a very good person and loves to support the younger generations.

Wang Tao still wanted to get to know these two people.

"Gang Lu went out in the morning when you arrived. He went to hunt special zombies and hasn't been back for several days."

Wang Tao was a little surprised.

Hunting special zombies? He didn't even dare to say that he could hunt special zombies. He just saw if he could deal with them when he encountered them. The other party dares to hunt directly? This strength is incredible!

Wei Zhenguo seemed to know what Wang Tao was thinking. He smiled and shook his head.

"Hey, he said he was hunting special zombies, but it was actually just a matter of luck. When searching for supplies, he wanted to see if he could encounter one. He has good marksmanship and is the only sniper in our base, so when he encounters special zombies, he can Sniper from a distance. Most of our zombie crystal cores were brought by him..."

"That's pretty awesome!"

Wang Tao was a little envious. He also wanted a sniper rifle...

"As for Song Jinghong, he went to rescue the survivors. The survivors in Sunshine Community contacted us through the walkie-talkie. They were trapped. The danger there was not too great, so Song Jinghong took people there himself. But count the time , it’s time for him to come back..."

Wei Zhenguo was a little confused.

"Didn't you contact him?"

Wang Tao asked.

"Generally, the base will not take the initiative to contact people who go out. After all, their walkie-talkies cannot be turned on all the time..."

Wei Zhenguo explained.

"That's right."

At this time, Ren Jie smiled and said:

"Don't talk about others. When will Commissioner Wang show up in front of all the people in the base? The commissioner must let everyone know him."

"Anytime is fine."

"That's good, I'll check the time..."

Before Ren Jie finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.

"Report!"

"Come in."

A soldier trotted to Wei Zhenguo.

"Wei Squadron, the survivors of Sunshine Community have come to our base, but Commissioner Song Jinghong has not returned..."
