42: Chapter 27: Sweep and Kill Tank Zombies (Part 1)
This time, in the mission to scour food and recapture the kitchen, everyone was participating.
While the men led the battles, the flight attendants were responsible for carrying ammunition and spoils of war.
No one dared to slack.
However, Qin Yan earned a spot as a combatant with her bravery and strength.
Li Xinlan was Tang Zheng’s exclusive auxiliary soldier.
Xu Lu spotted an opportunity and starred at Zhao Jingye.
She ran to him and helped carry his combat backpack filled with grenades.
All of this sparked jealousy among the other flight attendants.
“What about me?
I still need an auxiliary soldier.” The bald man was jealous of the other two men’s battlefield ‘romances.’ Despite his attempts to call out to the flight attendants, his lousy character repelled them.
“Little Tang, maybe you could distribute the flight attendants a little Evenly?
Everyone needs an assistant, and the division of labor can improve efficiency.” Kang Songde proposed, eyeing Pang Meiqin’s tightly clad buttocks.
He felt a surge of heat rushing through him and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
“That’s a good idea.” The bald man immediately agreed, his gaze filled with expectation as he turned to Tang Zheng.
“If you were a combatant, could you protect your auxiliary soldier?” Tang Zheng dismissed Kang Songde’s idea.
“Who would want to entrust their lives to you, looking the way you do now?”
“What’s wrong with me?” Kang Songde lost his temper for the first time.
He used to be a Director, after all, and he couldn’t accept being reprimanded in public.
“Alright, suppose you play the role of a bait and lure the kitchen zombies.
In that case, I’ll apologize to you.” Tang Zheng gave him a dismissive look and stopped paying attention to him.
As expected, Kang Songde quieted down, his body language conveying his defeat.
He indeed didn’t have the courage to serve as a bait.
Even the bald man, who had been shouting about protecting the auxiliary soldiers, shut up.
He didn’t want to hurl himself into the line of fire or become the bait.
The flight attendants’ fear subsided.
They wouldn’t mind being Tang Zheng’s auxiliary soldiers but kept their distance from the bald man and Kang Songde.
“Why has everyone gone quiet?
Don’t think that you can take advantage of Tang Zheng’s kindness.
Each man will have to act as bait, no one can escape.” Lin Weiguo’s tone was resolute.
“That’s too much to ask.” Kang Songde tried to signal the maintenance worker to argue, but the worker diverted his gaze and ignored him.
Turning to Zhao Jingye, he found that even the pilot was silent this time.
With no other option, he could only protest in his defense.
“You want me to die, knowing I’m the oldest and least agile among us.
You want me to lure the zombies?
You might as well kill me outright; it would be less trouble.” Kang Songde cranked up the volume, his face expressing grief.
He appeared to have suffered a great injustice.
“What can you do then?
Eat, sleep, and ogle at women?” The bald man jumped in to mock him.
He had long been fed up with Kang Songde.
“I…
I’m a strategist, a staff officer, I excel in brain work.” Kang Songde stammered out an excuse.
“You excel in eating, don’t you, with your big belly and waist thicker than a tire?” Bai Guo shook her head innocently, “If you went to lure the zombies, you’d definitely get killed.”
Kang Songde’s face reflected a mix of embarrassment and awkwardness.
He couldn’t decide whether to scold the busty but brainless flight attendant or thank her for speaking up for him.
“Lin Weiguo, you don’t get to make that decision.
Little Tang is our team leader.” After saying this, Kang Songde turned to Tang Zheng for support.
“Little Tang, I honestly can’t lure those zombies.
Can you find something else for me to do?
When we return, if someone in your family wants to work at the transportation bureau, I can arrange it.”
When everyone heard Director Kang’s promise, they instinctively turned to Tang Zheng, waiting for his response.
“I’ll say it again: each person has to act as bait once.
If not, get out of the team and find your own food,” Tang Zheng did not waver.
“Whether we can make it back is unclear, Director Kang.
We’ve got less than twelve days.
I don’t have high hopes for you,” the bald man threatened Kang Songde, clearly enjoying the misfortune of others.
“Tang Zheng, how do we determine the order of baiting the zombies?” After a long silence, the maintenance worker finally spoke up.
“As the group leader, I’ll go first.
The rest of you can decide amongst yourselves: draw straws or whatever,” Tang Zheng’s tone was rather mild.
He knew that honest people like maintenance workers won’t pass the buck.
They are patient but they also didn’t want to do extra work or suffer any hidden losses.
Clearing things up in advance would be best.
Hearing Tang Zheng say that he would be the first to bait the zombies, the bald man who was initially complaining fell silent.
The flight attendants began to covertly assess him while Cheng Chen and Zhou Zhou quietly argued over whether he was fearless. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“Once you have proven your value to the team, I will provide you with grenades for self-defense,” Tang Zheng also stated his terms.
There should be some rewards to motivate them, “The team will not abandon any of its members.”
Everyone had their own calculations.
Apart from the incessantly talking bald man, everyone else fell silent until they entered the security room on the second floor where the atmosphere warmed up a bit.
In the name of privacy and safety, there were no cameras installed in the suites, but the kitchen was different.
The monitor showed everything inside: a huge tank zombie and two hunter zombies represented the difficulty in this attack.
The remaining five were common ones, not worth worrying about.
Looking at the tank zombie roaring and ravaging the whole kitchen, swinging its massive arms, and the crushed refrigerator beside it, everyone breathed heavily.
Kang Songde’s eyes darted around, his face pale and unsightly.
He knew he couldn’t avoid this and had to come up with some plan before being the bait.
“Bai Guo, stay here and monitor the hotel.
Report any changes immediately through the walkie-talkie.
We’ll fight at the staircase.
Bald man and Lin Weiguo, you two will use the MG42 machine guns to mainly attack the tank zombie and hunter zombies.
The rest will deal with the common zombies.
Li Xinlan, Qin Yan, you two are responsible for throwing grenades.
Pang Meiqin, Zhou Zhou, you two will act as secondary shooters for the bald man and Lin Weiguo, replacing ammunition.
Flight attendants without duties will stay on the second floor.
Do not roam around without my orders.”
“Why do they get to rest?” Pang Meiqin grumbled in a low voice, her index fingers intertwined, clearly unwilling to go on.
“Nobody can rest.
There are still so many zombies in the lobby of the hotel.
The next wave will soon be their turn,” Tang Zheng explained, “Now, Lin Wei will brief you all on the role of a secondary shooter.
If anyone fails to learn and delay our mission, don’t blame me for ruthlessly kicking her out of the team.”
Before Xu Lu and Zeng Xue could secretly rejoice about being told to stay put instead of risking their lives, they were disappointed again.
Fear quickly replaced their joy, and they quickly went over to Lin Weiguo to listen to his instructions.
“Tang Zheng, we’re all civilized people.
Do you need to be so cruel?
Anyone would need time to adapt,” Director Kang played the good guy again.
“Zombies won’t take a halftime break to wait for you to adapt,” Tang Zheng stared at Director Kang, then turned his head to look at the flight attendants, “If you want to survive, you must first be ruthless to yourselves.
Here, nobody will spoil you.
Food, water, weapons, everything related to survival, you’ll have to find it yourselves, take it from places conquered by zombies.”
