The Zerg Emperor of the End of the World - Chapter 516

c516 Enclosure and reform

The visit of Daqin Base and Solo Republic Base did not bring any adverse effects to Lishan Base. Instead, Wang Jin took advantage of this momentum to thoroughly spread the name of Lishan Base. With the deliberate spread of spies, everyone knew how powerful Lishan Base was. Even Daqin Base and Solo Republic Base had to come to visit and establish friendship.

After the two bases left, Lishan Base was free of external threats. Wang Jin concentrated on developing the Zerg. This was Wang Jin’s trump card. A strong Zerg swarm was the foundation for Wang Jin to settle down.

One after another, mother nests began to rise in the territory controlled by Lishan Base, and the fungal mats near the mother nests spread rapidly, swallowing up large tracts of land.

Under the unknown underground of the fungal mat, countless slender fleshy rhizomes similar to plants grew. After going thousands of meters underground, they absorbed geothermal energy and converted it into silicon ore required for the production of Zerg.

The fungal blankets that spread over more and more land harvested a lot of silicon ore, and then hatched into insect swarms. The insect swarms on the fungal blankets turned to hunt mutant beasts. The worker bees collected vegetation and transported it back for the fungal blankets to absorb and digest, allowing the fungal blankets to expand faster and swallow more land, forming a perfect cycle between the two sides.

The mutant beasts in the territory of the Lishan base are now in trouble. After dealing with the corpses in the city, Wang Jin did not intend to let them go. Teams of insect swarms entered the lush primeval forest one after another, and the worker bees began to saw off the low shrubs. Those towering trees that were hundreds of meters high, Wang Jin did not hesitate to command the thunder beasts to enter the field, and let the thunder beasts, the overlords of the ground, act as lumberjacks.

Wang Jin used the thunder beasts to cut down trees, and their efficiency was incredible. The towering trees were like small bean sprouts in front of the thunder beasts. With two ten-meter-long bone giant blades, any towering tree would be cut down. The logging efficiency was extremely high. Almost as the thunder beasts walked, the towering trees in front of them broke and fell to the ground.

The rest of the fighting insect swarms killed a lot in the forest. Whether it was herbivorous mutant beasts or carnivorous mutant beasts, they could not escape the insect swarm’s poisonous hands. They were killed one by one and dragged back to the mother nest to become nutrients and fertilizers for the fungal carpet.

Under the massive invasion of the insect swarm, the original forests in the territory of the Lishan base were gradually reduced. Every day, large areas of forests were destructively mined by worker bee thunder beasts, turning into bare land. It would not take long for these bare ground to be covered by fungal carpets, allowing the fungal carpets to absorb more heat energy and convert it into silicon ore.

The habitats of the mutants were destroyed and reduced, and they also faced the ruthless slaughter of the insect swarm. Many virgin forests have disappeared and turned into insect blankets.

During this process, Wang Jin’s insect swarm also encountered two level 5 mutants one after another, but Wang Jin is no longer the same as before. The two level 5 mutants did not have much effort. The insect swarm strangled them, and the two level 5 mutants, together with their younger brothers, all went to hell.

No one can stop the expansion and spread of the blanket. In Ludong Province, the black and purple blanket occupies one-third of the land, and large areas of virgin forests are destroyed every day. The spread of the blanket is still increasing.

In Jiujiang Province, Huzhi Province, Andong Province, Fuzhou Province, Japan, South Korea, North Korea and other regions, the blanket is also like a malignant tumor, quickly devouring the originally lush vegetation land. Except for agricultural land, other land is within the expansion of the blanket.

With the number of humans after the apocalypse, large tracts of land are of little use to humans. Instead of leaving them for mutant beasts to live on, it is better to cover them with fungal mats, which can also be used to develop a large amount of silicon mines for the Zerg.

When the Zerg launched a vigorous enclosure movement, the merchants in the Lishan Base Business Department also took advantage of the developed host high-altitude transportation industry to do business in all bases radiating from the Lishan Base.

In the north, the merchants of the Lishan Base reached as far as Siberia, and in the south, they reached as far as Hainan and Taiwan.

Under the deterrence of the Lishan Base, not many of these bases that traded with the merchants dared to cheat. The fearless Zerg did not mind letting them understand what killing was. Although Wang Jin temporarily stopped expanding, it was still easy to send troops to solve a few bases.

With the protection of the Lishan Base, the merchants were undoubtedly much more confident and bold. They sold the goods given to them by the base continuously. From small daily necessities such as food and clothes to large guns and tanks, they were all included in the goods sold by the Lishan Base. They became popular goods that many bases competed to buy, earning Wang Jin a lot of resource profits.

The merchants sold goods and also bought local specialty products. Many of them were transported back to the Lishan Base for consumption. The Lishan Base with nearly 100 million people was a super market where all kinds of goods could be consumed.

The development of commerce further promoted the economic prosperity of the Lishan Base. Wang Jin also gradually relaxed the policy of managing the survivors. Except for requiring the survivors to contribute their mental power to the mental nest every day, other restrictions were relaxed a lot, and the survivors had more rights.

In terms of living materials, the food given to the survivors by the Lishan Base every day was enough to satisfy them so that they would not be hungry again. Every household would have various electrical appliances distributed. Many of the materials seized from the zombie city were given to the survivors, greatly enriching their lives.

At the same time, the Lishan Base established an expert team directly under the City Lord’s Mansion to improve the laws, taxes, urban construction, courts, etc. of the Lishan Base. The well-planned Lishan Base policy is more open and transparent, and it looks like a small country. The Lishan Base has been working hard to develop in that direction.

The original Public Security Department of the Lishan Base was abolished, and the military department began to be established to meet the requirements of managing three million troops.

Chen Dong, He Youxi, Lin Shibin, Lu Yuanhuai and other veterans took over the army and each controlled a part of the army. The final right to send troops was in Wang Jin’s hands, which ensured that this army could work for Wang Jin to the greatest extent. Otherwise, if there was any rebellion and clearing the court, Wang Jin would be embarrassed.

Other logistics departments, production departments, commercial departments, and mutant management departments have also expanded reforms to improve the government organization and coordination of the Lishan Base. When it is running, it is a precision machine to ensure the efficient operation of the Lishan Base.

After rectification and development, the personnel composition of the Lishan Base has been basically clarified.

The lowest level is slaves. Most of them are Japanese or people who have committed serious crimes. They are driven like pigs and sheep, doing the hardest work and going to the most dangerous places to open up wasteland. The monthly mortality rate is extremely high.

Above them are civilians. This is the largest class in Lishan Base and the main driving force for the development of production materials in Lishan Base.

The next level is big businessmen, soldiers, mutants, government workers and other people. They enjoy better welfare, but they still have to abide by the rules and laws of Lishan Base. One of them is that civilians must not be killed without reason, which will be severely punished.

The more special one is the Zerg. Although the Zerg in Lishan Base are not human, no one dares to provoke them because of their status. Lishan Base clearly writes the Zerg into the constitution. The Zerg is the highest guard army of the base. Even if a worker bee is hurt, the minimum trial waiting is death penalty, and there is no possibility of forgiveness.

Wang Jin implements a dictatorial rule over the Lishan base. The Zerg are Wang Jin’s most important force, and that is the bottom line that cannot be touched. Anyone in the base who dares to take action against the Zerg will be subjected to Wang Jin’s most severe suppression.
