YM778.TV Chapter 127
On a small podium, Bing Shi, surrounded by the police, spoke to the microphone. Her heart was beating like a drum, she didn’t have social anxiety, but talking before so many people, was more than stressful.
“Ehm, this is going to be a long speech. I hope everyone brought water with them. I brought mine,” she showed her water bottle and took a sip, “Don’t get a stroke. We are short of doctors.”
*sound of chuckles*
Bing Shi raised a question, “Don’t you miss the internet? Because I’m going crazy without it.”
*everyone nodded their head in agreement.*
“I’m glad we are on the same wavelength,” she chuckled, “Now... To create a safe place for our future, we need a civilized society. Heck with those apocalypse movies. They say the most dangerous is the human heart. But can you imagine a world where you have to live in a stone age, where eating a child is normal?”
*Everyone shook their heads in disgust.*
“Can you imagine a world with supervillains and heroes?”
.....
*Everyone nodded their heads with bright eyes, especially the children.*
“My goal is to create a world with supervillains and heroes. Who is with me, raise your hand.”
*Everyone raised their hands with loud shouts, their hearts were pumped up.*
“There is no food left? We’ll grow our own. No freshwater? Lucky the ones with water and ice powers, you are going to strike it rich. But not now. Until you find a way how to operate a water factory, you’ll have to help each other out for free. Everyone is a little businessman by nature. I believe with this amount of people; you’ll work it out and create a new exchange system. Go to your previous working post, if you find out you are not needed, find a way how to be useful. Officer Ren Han’ll make sure that the police will function as before. For all the children out there, the school will be closed, except for those who can’t read or count. The rest will follow police officers and firefighters. Real-life will teach you a lot more than school. Practice your skills and get stronger to fight the bullies...”
*wohoo*
Bing Shi raised her hand to silence the kids, “After we finish clearing all the nearby cities, we will continue to move to the north, to continue with our mission. We will not stop until all of them are gone. But there is only so much we can do with only two hundred soldiers. In five days, we’re are going to recruit new members into our team...”
Everyone wanted to go back to their regular days and avoid any danger. As a new ruler, Bing Shi motivated them to strive for their future; she gave them hope, which they thought was lost.
All of Bing Shi’s care was pretty much unnecessary. She could swipe the city, recruit new members, and be gone. But what about the living people left behind? She didn’t want to be responsible, but knowing herself, she would regret it in the future.
As for Ren Han, he appointed one man and one female from the police department to take the reign of the city.
After the city was cleared out, citizens started to loot it in groups. In case they found a lost zombie. They could pinpoint it by simply making a loud noise, and the zombie would respond with a growl. Gold, designer clothes, anything which will have value in the future, was stolen. Some moved to the empty mansions to try to grow some food.
There were a few fights, but afraid of Bing Shi and police, they didn’t take it too far. As there were no prisons for people with superpowers, Bing Shi came up with a simple plan. She was currently the only one who had the most considerable amount of high-powered individuals on her side. Anyone who didn’t follow her rules would be automatically sent to her army, to be disciplined and used as a new workforce.
In the future, her troops would make sure that new ‘prisoners’ would piss their pants from sheer fear, while Kuro’d become a messenger of death.

It took soldiers two days to empty the military base. Fu Lian moved with them; she got her tent, which was next to Yi Zen’s. The soldiers didn’t protest. Having a beautiful woman walking around the base was such a feast to the eyes.
What made them truly happy was the recruitment notice, they couldn’t wait to meet their newly acquired girlfriends.

It was still early in the morning when heavy rain swept through the base. Small water droplets drummed steadily against the canvas tents.
There were two main tents for soldiers; each tent could accommodate up to 150 soldiers. Like a lullaby, the rain comforted the sleeping men inside; it ceased other’s snoring noise.

Besides those two main tents, there was a military command post tent, a hospital, and finally a kitchen with dining tables, which was also used as a conference room. Bing Shi was surprised when they brought their own portable field showers and toilets. As expected of Yi Zen, though he was forced to meet up a day sooner, he prepared everything ahead of time.

Compared to the pitiful soldiers, Ren Han’s teammates lived in a luxurious solar-paneled tent. No wonder Bing Shi choose to live outside in the open air. During nights, they could charge up their devices and power banks. Their beds were separated by curtains to provide at least some type of privacy.
Yi Zen lived in the military command post tent, while Ren Han had his separate tent.
As for Bing Shi, she had everything; she used any means to assure her comfort. Just for cases like rain and snow, she installed a toilet cabin used in the construction side inside her big tent. There was no way for her to share a toilet with two hundred men. With the solar panels, she could use the boiler to heat her water.
