Post-apocalyptic World: Stockpile Ten Billion Supplies at the Beginning - Chapter 138
After completing their daily tasks, the members returned early today because it was time for a barbecue. They all prepared for the barbecue, skewering meat and getting everything ready.
In the afternoon, Zhao Hai also arrived with his seven core subordinates. Originally, there were eight of them, but one was killed by zombies. Including Zhao Hai, when they learned it was a barbecue, they all eagerly swallowed their saliva.
Chen Luo smiled and said, “Before you leave, take 200 pounds of beef with you.” There was still a lot of beef, and Zhao Hai had been a big help, so Chen Luo wasn’t being stingy.
If they didn’t use it up soon, it might expire.
Chen Luo gathered all the people together because he had an important announcement to make.
“Recently, a member has shown exceptional performance and has earned 1500 points, meeting the requirements to become an elder. Now, we will officially appoint him as an elder.”
Instantly, the members below couldn’t help but whisper to each other. Someone became an elder so quickly?
“That’s 1500 points! Although I’ve been working hard, I only earn three points a day and can’t bear to spend them. Saving up 1500 points would take me a year and a half.”
“I’m not even close to becoming an elite member.”
“It’s probably Xia Haoran, he kills a lot of zombies every day, he’s really strong.”
“It might also be Mi Ling.”
“Could it be Shu Yun?”
“Could it be that someone obtained a very high-level crystal and contributed it to the leader, making a big leap?”
Chen Luo coughed and said, “Please, let this member come forward and show themselves to everyone.”
Inside the room, the Thunderbolt King felt quite nervous. He had never been this nervous, not even when he killed a fourth-level zombie. No, even when my owner came to rescue me from the dog meat restaurant, I wasn’t this nervous.
Especially in this outfit, my owner carefully prepared it for me. Will it blind the eyes of those people?
When the time came for the grand entrance, the Thunderbolt King wasn’t nervous at all.
The Dog Elder made a grand entrance.
All the people saw was a furry fellow, dressed in a black windbreaker that covered most of his body.
The fur on his forehead was slicked back, shining brightly in the sunlight – it was styled with hair gel.
He had relatively large black sunglasses on his face.
In his hand, he held a long piece of wood, using it as a cane to walk upright.
Well, the Thunderbolt King wanted to walk upright, but it felt awkward, not that it would fall, but it kept leaning. Chen Luo made a walking stick for it to practice with.
The Thunderbolt King appeared with a cool and flashy look.
A real-life model of a dog.
Everyone who wasn’t in the know was left with their jaws on the floor. Could it be that the first Elder was the Thunderbolt King?
Unbelievable! Even it can become a member and an Elder?
This was beyond everyone’s expectations. However, if it was the Thunderbolt King, it made sense. Everyone knew the Thunderbolt King’s strength, and except for Chen Luo, there was truly no one who had the confidence to defeat it.
No, not even with a group effort.
When the leader wasn’t around, it was usually the Law King who guarded the base.
No, not even cooperation.
When the leader was absent, it was usually the Thunderbolt King who guarded the base.
Everyone could clearly see a smug smile on the Law King’s lips.
Hahaha, even a dog has its day! After so many days of hard work, he had finally achieved something.
The Thunderbolt King raised his paw and waved it.
“Hey there, everyone,” he greeted.
The people stared dumbfounded, not knowing how to react.
Chen Luo shouted, “What are you all standing there for? Call him Dog Elde! From now on, the Thunderbolt King is an Elder.”
The members woke up as if from a dream and called out, “Hello, Dog Elder.”
If it were anyone else, there might have been feelings of jealousy and envy among the members. However, when the Thunderbolt King became an Elder, everyone found it amusing and entertaining.
Even Mi Ling and Mi Li couldn’t help but burst into laughter, calling him Dog Elder.
As for Xia Haoran and Su Dazhu, it goes without saying.
Zhao Hai team looked baffled, as if this was some kind of play. It seemed like playing house, but what Law King’s strength was well understood by Zhao Hai and his group. It was exceptionally fierce. Even Ye Gaofei, who was also at the fourth level, had no chance to fight back and was taken down by it in an instant.
Without witnessing it with their own eyes, who would dare to believe it?
Before the apocalypse, this dog would have been worth billions. Zhao Hai would have sold everything he had to buy it, without any hesitation.
If there were a couple more dogs like this, they could just lie down, let the dogs carry them, and take off directly.
The crowd all hailed the Thunderbolt King as the elder, and Thunderbolt King excitedly called out a few times too.
Rice chuckled and translated, ” Thunderbolt King says that today, it will cover the cost of all the drinks for everyone. It’s treating everyone.”
The Thunderbolt King then called out to Chen Luo again.
Rice continued to translate, “I’ve run out of points, can I put it on credit?”
Chen Luo struggled to hold back his laughter, but it was impossible to resist. Thunderbolt King was being quite generous today, and the drinks were supposed to be unlimited with the barbecue.
How could he refuse this offer?
Chen Luo loudly announced, “The Dog Elder said that it will cover the cost of all the drinks for everyone today. Enjoy yourselves.”
The crowd erupted in cheers.
“Thank you, Dog Elder!”
“Dog Elder, I love you!”
“Dog Elder is the most handsome!”
Hear that? They’re calling me the Dog Elder. What do those points matter?
During lunch, Long Yu heard Chen Luo’s acts and was quite shocked. Killing both Ye Gaofei and Han Ya, with at least five or six at Level 4, and even higher-level ability users?
Still recruiting?
Long Yu thought about it and came over to take a look.
As he got closer to Chen Luo’s base, Long Yu was surprised to find that there were only a small number of wandering zombies nearby, clearly indicating that they had been cleared out. The area covered was quite large.
Even Ye Gaofei’s over 1,000 people couldn’t achieve this level of control. The closer he got, the fewer zombies there were.
When he reached Chen Luo’s base, Long Yu was first attracted by the notice board. The members guarding the base didn’t approach him, as they had seen this sort of thing happen often these days.
Long Yu approached, and the more he looked, the brighter his eyes became.
Only recruiting third-level individuals, very strict criteria, and at the current stage, there weren’t many who met these requirements.
Having to kill zombies every day?
This actually aligned with his philosophy of clearing zombies.
Killing at least two a day with rewards for killing more – Long Yu was very much in favor of this. People weren’t machines, and it was impossible to keep killing endlessly. Plus, it was dangerous. It made sense to do one’s best without risking people’s lives.
There was order within the base, and those who violated it would be severely punished. It was nothing like Ye Gaofei’s approach, where anyone was accepted.
There was no room for useless individuals here.
Long Yu looked at the base with mixed emotions. Even Ye Gaofei had been defeated so easily; this base was incredibly powerful, and he didn’t consider himself much in comparison.
Suddenly, a delicious aroma wafted in, causing Long Yu and his people to salivate uncontrollably.
Someone exclaimed, “It’s the smell of barbecue!”
Just mentioning it made everyone’s mouths water even more.
Someone couldn’t resist and asked, “If we join now, can we have some barbecue?”
The members on duty rolled their eyes, “What are you thinking? Wanting to eat barbecue without contributing? You need to be a full-fledged member at least.”
Everyone was disappointed, but they didn’t dare to be disrespectful.
Long Yu discreetly wiped his mouth. He really wished he could go in and enjoy some barbecue now. With his fourth-level abilities, he should get some special treatment, right?
Long Yu considered this base to be quite good. He lacked leadership skills and wasn’t suitable to be the leader.
He looked back at his people, realizing that half of them hadn’t reached the third level yet.
If he decided to join, they should join together; they had come this far together.
Long Yu walked away with a heavy heart, unable to enjoy the smell of the barbecue. He had decided to join once all his people reached the third level.
That night, unaware of Long Yu’s visit, Chen Luo called for Thunderbolt King, the Dog Elder.
“Come, take a look at the bill. Today, we consumed a total of 1,568 bottles of drinks. That means your points are now at -1,568. Work hard to pay it off, little dog,” Chen Luo said with a grin.
Thunderbolt King was left dumbfounded. Were they pigs? How could they consume so much? Law Wang regretted his earlier generosity.
He had inadvertently wiped out his entire Elder-level points with one extravagant gesture.
