Chapter 225 Heavenly Man
Abraham and Rosita felt very strange about Li's frankness. They asked, "Can you tell me all this?"
Li said as a matter of course: "Of course, everyone knows these things."
A worker carrying a plate passed by. He glanced at the unfamiliar faces of Abraham and Rosita and said casually:
"Don't be ridiculous, buddy. We are the survivors of destiny, the embodiment of order and justice. Those who dare to make us take action are bad guys who are against civilization and order."
Abraham put down his chopsticks and looked at the fried food coated with butter on the worker's plate.
"What is this? Can I taste it?" Abraham wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth.
"Sweet and sour pork. Pork is in short supply now, so this is rare. You need to have enough labor points to eat it.
But... since you are new, I am willing to share some with you."
The worker put one of the plates of sweet and sour pork on the table, and left without waiting for Abraham to stand up to thank him.
Abraham, who had half stood up, sat back in his chair. He looked back at the departing workers frequently, and then said to Li:
"You guys are so friendly here? Oh my god..."
Li smiled and was about to respond when the Scorpion Force intercom on his chest rang.
"Zi... Li, I received news that Chief Zhang went to your city of Savannah. It might be a surprise inspection. You should be careful."
Zhang Qiang once bought an unlimited-range walkie-talkie from a panel mall, and now each leader of a base is equipped with one.
The one who informed Li was Lily, the current mayor of Gran Town.
Li's expression straightened up and he replied thanking Lily for telling him.
Lily’s political abilities have improved a lot now, and she knows how to win over political friends.
"Your top leader is coming? Can I meet him? To be honest, I'm really curious about who he is."
Abraham heard Lee's entire conversation and expressed his thoughts straightforwardly.
"No problem, he's very easygoing. But don't be too rude."
Li did not reject Abraham. Zhang Qiang's style in the Tianming position was well known to everyone. He never engaged in bureaucracy.
Abraham nodded, and he and Rosita continued to concentrate on eating.
After a while, the noise of helicopters hovering could be heard in the sky over Savannah.
Li looked at his watch, gave a few instructions to a few staff members, then stood up and left the restaurant, preparing to go outside to greet his leader.
Abraham and Rosita's bellies were already round, and they were so bloated that they felt a little sleepy.
"Should we wait here for them?"
Abraham asked a staff member.
"As you wish." the staff member replied.
Abraham knocked on the table helplessly. He was a restless man, but when he thought about meeting the leader of the Destiny camp soon, Abraham could only calm down and wait for Li to come back while digesting his food.
After a while, Zhang Qiang, holding a stock of [Old Immortal Cigar] in his mouth, pushed open the door of the cafeteria and walked in with a swagger.
Some workers noticed Zhang Qiang's arrival and stood up immediately. Then everyone raised their heads and stood up, shouting to Zhang Qiang, who was walking vigorously:
"Hello, Commander Zhang!!"
“Long live the destiny!!”
The sound of everyone standing up in unison made Abraham, who was taking a nap in his chair, stand up in a hurry. At this moment, his mind was in a mess, and he had only one thought:
"Who am I? Where am I?"
"Eat, eat! It's time to take a rest!"
Zhang Qiang raised his hand slightly, signaling everyone not to be too serious.
Zhang Qiang's eyes casually swept over the chubby Abraham, who immediately tensed his muscles.
'Shit... he is the leader of the Destiny Front? It feels... very dangerous.'
Abraham had served in the military and had an excellent sixth sense. He felt that Zhang Qiang must have done a lot of bloody things.
This is different from the survivors who killed zombies outside. Abraham's sixth sense has pushed Zhang Qiang high to the top of the food chain pyramid. He even feels like he has been pushed to the sky. He feels that he and Zhang Qiang are not creatures from the same dimension.
Abraham could not help but stand up straight. Zhang Qiang was walking towards him. Abraham could not help but salute him and shouted "Hello, sir".
The effect of Zhang Qiang's training with the soldiers in Atlanta was evident, and he already had the temperament of an officer.
"Abraham, I've heard a lot about you. I heard you wanted to see me, what's the matter?"
Zhang Qiang extended his hand to Abraham, whose body was tense, and Abraham shook hands with him stiffly.
"I...you..."
Abraham hesitated and had difficulty speaking normally.
Rosita next to him was very quick and took the initiative to come over and shake hands with Zhang Qiang, then talked about the detailed information that Alan wanted to pass on to the Destiny Position.
Washington, the blue-armored giant zombie, these were news that Zhang Qiang had already heard, but Rosita also mentioned the Alexandria community and the Savior Army, which made Zhang Qiang's eyes light up.
The Salvation Army, with hundreds of members, is the leading force in the Washington area, but to the Destiny Front, the Salvation Army is insignificant.
Zhang Qiang could completely destroy the Salvation Hall by sending out an infantry company, but the Tianming position now has a heavy armored combined brigade, not to mention the air force configuration.
However, destroying the Salvation Church would require a huge amount of resources, and it was not cost-effective at all. It was more than a thousand kilometers from Atlanta to Washington, and even if an F15 fighter was sent there, it would be an overkill. Zhang Qiang had no intention of doing this unprofitable business.
Instead of destroying the Saviors, it would be better for Zhang Qiang to take some people to defeat Negan, incorporate the Saviors, and use this to radiate influence to the surrounding areas of Washington and open up the development of the Destiny position in Washington.
From the plot, the Salvation Army has about 300 to 400 people. Even if Zhang Qiang kills half of them, there will still be 100 to 200 people left. Zhang Qiang is very satisfied with the number of people in the Salvation Army.
"Lee has already entertained you, so I won't be too polite. When are you leaving? I will also lead people to Washington the day after tomorrow."
Zhang Qiang looked at Abraham and Rosita with satisfaction. The information they passed on was indeed very valuable.
"Tomorrow, we will rest for a night and then go back tomorrow. By the way, these are all what Alan asked us to do. I think you must be a great person in her heart. I have heard her mention you a lot."
Rosita said with a smile.
"Alan? This brat..." Zhang Qiang remembered the loophole in the new bill and his face was immediately filled with black lines.
"You said...what?" Rosita seemed to hear a swear word.
Zhang Qiang said indifferently: "It's okay, I will support you with a batch of equipment to take back, but it's my leftovers. I hope you don't mind."
Rosita and Abraham looked at each other, totally unaware of what Zhang Qiang was talking about.
Zhang Qiang had not finished his inspection yet. He politely said goodbye to the two men and turned to leave.
