283 Not Bad
“Follow Thirteen’s lead for now.”
Wang Ran nodded in satisfaction.
He had all the manpower needed to move the supplies.
Hank was shocked.
Did he just subdue those terrifying zombies without lifting a finger?
It was too easy!
The company had subdued zombies with the help of no short supply of powerful weapons and equipment.
Hank looked at Wang Ran with even more fear.
It was no wonder that this person could make the company suffer so many times in a row.
His strength was truly unfathomable…
Soon, Hank brought Wang ran and the others to the warehouse on the island.
The warehouse here was massive. It was as big as three or four football fields.
The first warehouse was filled with weapons and ammunition, as well as some explosive collars.
“Boss, look, this thing is very useful!
“See, I’m putting it on.”
Hank put on the explosive collar on his neck.
He knew that this was the only way he could survive.
“One remote control can control 10 collars.
“This is the detonation method. You must be careful not to mispress anything else,” Hank explained in detail how to use the explosive collar.
“Hmm, not bad.”
Wang Ran nodded in satisfaction.
With this explosive collar, he would be able to use it on people who may or may not be sincere in their surrender.
In addition to rifles and pistols, there were even Gatling guns and rocket launchers.
If he were to attack forcefully, he might have suffered heavy losses.
He had been quite fortunate to have met Hank on the beach.
Next was the food warehouse.
The food here was much better than the ones on the previous islands.
Although most of them were canned food, there was a lot more variety.
There were even some canned herring.
The hard workers in N-City would have a much happier life.
Unfortunately, the cargo ship’s carrying capacity was limited, and they could only take two-thirds of the food.
“Thirteen, get some people to move all the food to the cargo ship.
“Get the weapons to Tang Tang’s ship.
“If anything exceeds the load capacities, just leave it for now. We’ll cross that bridge when the time comes.”
Wang Ran gave orders.
“Yes, Boss!
“Brothers, let’s move!
“It’s time to earn a living!”
Thirteen started barking commands.
These Mutated Zombies were just only celebrating their newfound freedom. Such labor was nothing.
The canned food was transported to the freighter in boxes.
Wang Ran found a high place and looked at the zombies moving the goods like ants.
Suddenly, Wang Ran’s eyes lit up.
He spotted two battleships!
“Hank, come here!
“Are those two ships…”
Wang Ran remembered that such ships had been turned into museums after they were retired.
“Boss, that’s the Missouri!”
The Japanese signed the letter of surrender on board.
“The other one is the Arizona.
“We’ve already restored most of their functions. They are battle-worthy!” Hank said immediately.
He had almost forgotten about these two ancient ships.
“Battle, what battle?
“Move the rest of the food to the two battleships.
...
“Their displacement isn’t low, so they should be able to carry stuff.”
Wang Ran treated the battleship as a cargo ship.
With that, the entire island’s supplies could basically be moved.
Wang Ran arrived on the Missouri in high spirits.
A battleship was a marvelous construct. He almost felt like opening fire.
“Can all these main cannons be fired?” Wang Ran asked.
“Yes, yes, yes. We’ve fully restored it.
“We planned to escort cargo ships that usually transport supplies.
“Look at these three triple main cannons. They’re quite something aren’t they?
“We’ve also got 12 sub-cannons and 8 machine guns. We have sufficient ammunition.
“However, the anti-aircraft guns and the like were dismantled during the repair process. The cruise missiles were also dismantled because of the lack of maintenance.
...
“The ship was originally equipped with reconnaissance planes, but they were left in the museum for too long and could not be restored. We got rid of them.
“It’s not at 100%, but it’s still a force to be reckoned with.
“The Arizona has not been restored to such an extent, but it is seaworthy.”
Hank spoke with some pride.
He had been in charge of the repairs of the two battleships.
Wang Ran nodded.
They could use these two battleships.
Eastlake Island would have decent defenses.
Moreover, he would gain a significant boost in naval firepower.
This trip had been a good one.
Other than not encountering much resistance and having a lackluster battle, they had gained much.
“Boss, what do you plan to do with those scientists and researchers?
“Are you planning to kill them all?” Hank asked.
“Do they eat a lot?” Wang Ran asked.
“Eat? Not much, much less than Awakened Ones.”
Hank was a little confused. Why was he asking such a question?
“Since they don’t eat much, we’ll take them all back.
“The researchers and equipment here should be the best of what your company can offer,
“They’ll help Shiyao out.”
Wang Ran smiled.
Just like how some countries claimed the best and the brightest minds of the enemy during World War II, Wang Ran intended to take away all the scientists here.
According to Hank, they had already developed a way to safely mass-produce rank-three Awakened Ones.
This could greatly increase the strength of his underlings.
If he had 10,000 rank-three Awakened Ones by his side, they could reliably defend themselves against another massive horde in unarmed combat.
Wang Ran was led by Hank to the facilities.
Hundreds of researchers were busy inside and had no idea what was happening on the island.
“Manager Hank, I don’t have enough materials here. Could you please fetch me golden-eyed zombies?” the bald doctor asked when he saw Hank.
The guards had all been called off. The researchers were all weak and didn’t dare to catch zombies themselves.
As soon as the bald doctor finished speaking, he suddenly trembled.
He spotted Su Xiaoyu, who was behind Hank.
As a top researcher who had been studying zombies and viruses, he recognized Su Xiaoyu’s identity at a glance.
White hair… Black eyes…
This powerful presence…
“Ah… A Zombie Monarch?”
The bald doctor was excited.
This was his first time seeing one!
“What are you looking at?!
“She’s the boss’s woman!”
Hank’s palm landed on the bald doctor’s bald head.
The bald doctor was shocked. Boss’s woman?
He couldn’t have any ideas about her.
Originally, he had wanted to cut a few slices off for some research…
