Chapter 229 - Adam And Frank (2)
"You're correct, Victor. It seems one problem is solved. Adam, Frank, come over here and join our discussion. I'd like to listen to your opinion about the thing I want you guys to do." Zhang Qin Feng curled his finger at them to call them over.
The two excitedly came to where the four gathered and joined their conversation. Since the discussion was what the two were good at, the two newcomers got comfortable speaking to their boss instantly.
Their experience as a survivor in this zombie-infested surface also allowed them to notice a few parts that should be modified in the blueprint shown by Zhang Qin Feng. Based on their opinion, a few specific features should be taken out to reduce the manufacturing cost and make up for the restriction in manufacturing time.
At the end of their discussion, the gadget and signal tower they'll assemble and distribute will focus on one crucial point.
Long-range, accurate communication.
This will be their primary focus until a further upgrade is required. No one else except the member from the Wind Base will be using this feature right now.
After the two had left the conversation, Zhang Qin Feng continued with where they stopped a while earlier.
"Regarding the issue with Turbine Town and also the planning to take over a shelter, I'll leave them to your expertise. Let me know what you have in your mind while we're preparing for the attack," said Zhang Qin Feng. It seems that the longer he sat in the boss's position, the more opinion came across his mind.
His concern is no longer about the survivability of a few members but the entire base. Right now, he can be said to have more than what he can chew on his plate. Failure to consider the bigger picture would only drag the base down with him faster than before.
"Also, I have something in mind that Marvin might have to help me with. It's related to some older generation devices. You may need to start getting more manpower to help you with this." said Zhang Qin Feng.
"By the way, what's the current report with the Gene Modifier? How did it go?" Zhang Qin Feng move to the next concern in his mind. He remembered that before this, Stein installed a primary operation function into the Gene Modifier's Control Board.
By now, the AI software within the Controlling Board should have done at least half a thousand operations already. Although it's not enough to say that the AI has matured, it should be enough to function automatically.
"The Gene Modifier is working better than expected," said Satella. Her subordinates were the primary users of the Gene Modifier Chair, and right now, everyone is focusing on searching for another chair to add to the surgery room.
They can be somewhat described as addicted to the feeling of getting their body enhanced. Furthermore, the more enhancement, the longer the Blood Petrification Illness symptom can be delayed. It was a win-win condition for them.
And part of the motivation that made everyone rushing to join Satella's Armed Force was because of this. The availability of protective gear and top-notched weaponry also gives them insurance to execute their mission safely. To the clones, this was more than what they could ask for.
"Good. I think we have nothing else for now. Return to your station if you have nothing else for me." Zhang Qin Feng said.
"Then... We'll excuse ourselves, boss." Marvin and Victor sounded like they're in a hurry to somewhere else.
"Why the two is rushing back to their department?" Zhang Qin Feng curiously asked Satella. Although he was the boss of this base, he's not directly involved in their day-to-day operation. It was understandable that he had no idea what's going to happen.
"Oh... That's because Shaun and Alex was the one going out for scavenging today. Whenever it's their turn, there will be a mess here and there." Satella chuckled. From her tone, it seems that everyone had their task.
Satella and Queenie's team always focused on gathering survivors, surveying, and marking the Wind Base's territories.
As for Alex and Shaun, they're responsible for the bulk job of gathering raw materials, eliminating zombie hordes, and cleaning. They were assigned as so based on their personal expertise and also leadership traits.
"Since there's nothing else to do, I'll be going back first." Zhang Qin Feng said. He had quite a busy schedule lately. He finds that he hardly had time to rest from handling the matter in this post-apocalypse and the modern world.
Although he wasn't busy to the point he had to cram everything together into one, the stress still got him busy from day until the night.
"Alright. I'll walk you back to the residence." Satella held Zhang Qin Feng's arm as she savors the feeling of walking like a pair of lovers together back to the residence. But as someone that understands her from the inside out, Zhang Qin Feng made sure to 'Feed' Satella before activating the dimensional travel.
'Fei-Fei should be on her way back home now. Should I cook something simple for her tonight?' Zhang Qin Feng thought as he powered the smartphone that was off all the time when he was at the post-apocalypse.
Close to ten messages came instantly when the smartphone is connected with the tower's signal around him.
The few messages from Wang Yufei seem unimportant compared to the three recent text messages from Captain Hu. It was sent to him about ten minutes ago.
(Our Tianhe Special Squadron is ordered to keep the situation in control over the south-eastern district. Two local gangs, the Xuanwu and Black Ironhead, are fighting for control over a few territories around there.)
(Based on the intel we've received from the Internal Security Department, at least thirty wounded and two deaths are reported right now. The responsibility for this matter has been passed to our squadron. We're preparing for an all-out operation right now.)
(We've dispatched 70 Tianhe Members out to handle this matter. Please contact me if you're back in touch. I will assume leadership for now and control the situation.)
'Look's like I'll have to join this no matter what.' Zhang Qin Feng chuckled. Putting on the clothing Valerian gives him previously, he drove the car out after sending a text to inform Wang Yufei.
