Chapter 103: Development
After killing the spider monster, Leon is also in trouble.
The Fort Benning Military Base is definitely a perfect camp, with a large area and a wide area, with commercial streets, residential areas, hospitals, and an amazingly defended military fortress that once lived here with more than 200,000 residents.
But precisely because of its size, it will require a considerable number of men and guards to fully occupy the fortress.
And because of the last battle, the number of elite soldiers under Leon has been halved, and they are still lying in the hospital, which makes him quite anxious.
I thought about it and thought about it for a night, and the only thing I thought of was a way to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall.
He first connected to Kevira's communication, told the red-haired girl the truth about the military base, and gave her the right to form her own combat unit, hoping that she would break away from the work of the prison stronghold within a month and send her back to the military base.
Kevira was a little dissatisfied on the surface, and agreed with great embarrassment, and put forward many conditions for compensation, but Leon knew this woman and was able to form a force of her own, this elite girl's heart must be very excited, and Leon also believed that she had this ability.
After recovering some of the military power, Leon answered little Amy's phone again, and this time the two talked for a long time, and he was going to downgrade the Umbrella base in Atlanta to a sub-base, with only two to three hundred people in size.
And the Fort Benning military base will operate as the main center of the umbrella company.
Even, he has already thought about it, when the number of people in the umbrella company exceeds 5,000, it will be too small to continue to operate as a company.
At that time, the umbrella company will usher in a major reform and face this end of the world with a new look.
On the fourth day after the battle with the spider monsters, little Amy also rushed from the Umbrella Base to the Fort Benning Military Base, which was the second time she had stepped out of the range of the Umbrella Base since the end of the world.
After numerous high-level discussions, the Atlanta base will officially begin the transfer to the Fort Benning military base.
The only thing that makes it difficult for everyone is that the underground research institute under the CDC cannot be transferred, and all the high-precision research on the zombie virus must be completed there.
That means that Lyon must detach a group of fighters to protect the CDC.
Fortunately, as the world's top virus research center, the Atlanta CDC has a strong defense when there is sufficient energy, and it is almost impossible to break into the underground research institute from the outside.
Only a small number of soldiers need to be sent for early warning and defense, and even if they encounter danger, they will have enough time to send a large army to come to the rescue.
Soon, all the work was going on in an orderly manner, and as the news of the battle gradually spread throughout the company, some contradictory emotions began to spread within the company.
On the fifth day after the end of the battle in the Vault, a strange thing happened, Peggy, who had been in a state of suspended animation, suddenly woke up, as if she had a long dream, and after waking up, there was nothing abnormal in her body, and she was very healthy.
This surprised researchers such as Dr. Mephala and Professor Jacob, but no matter how they were tested, they couldn't analyze the difference between Peggy and others, and only Leon, who knew his own special situation, had a relevant guess.
Everyone in the base thought that he was not directly involved in the battle but was conducting remote command, so he escaped this danger, and did not wonder that he was not unconscious.
Soon, when the test was inconclusive, the matter gradually faded away.
But Leon is still quite happy to regain Peggy's right-hand man, and with this girl, it is equivalent to regaining the ability of drone reconnaissance and bait.
Whether in battle or in various other things, the abilities of this girl with a broken arm are irreplaceable.
On top of that, the maiden has an unparalleled loyalty to him, and it is basically impossible to betray him.
A few more days later, Andrea sent another communication, the Trojan Mutual Aid had been waiting for a week, and they wanted to meet with Leon again.
Moreover, Andrea also said that the recruitment team they were stationed in the exchange had already recruited about fifty survivors, and they were willing to come to the Umbrella Company to give it a try, and asked Leon what they would do with them.
However, at this time, Leon still had the leisure to care about the Trojan Mutual Aid Society, so he asked Andrea to send these survivors to the Fort Benning military base and inform the Trojan Mutual Aid people.
He couldn't spare time to go to the village of Durham to meet them, and if they were really in a hurry, he could send someone to meet them at the Fort Benning military base.
With the continuous transfer of personnel and materials from the Atlanta base, the number of people at the Fort Benning military base soon reached nearly 1,600 people, although half of them were unconscious patients and prisoners, but the scale of such a number was beyond the imagination of many people.
After the arrival of the staff, especially after the arrival of the intimate assistant Amy, Leon was finally able to arrange everyone's work more easily.
He first arranged for Colonel William and his team to lead the captives in repairing the damaged walls of the base.
Logistics personnel were also arranged to clean up and maintain the entire base, and restore this place infected by war and death to its original state.
Leon himself took a few squad leaders and members of the combat squad to deal with the last two hidden dangers in the base.
Commercial and residential areas that have been fenced off.
The number of zombies in these two areas is also quite terrifying, and the combined number of zombies has exceeded sixty thousand.
However, after the welders urgently brought in by Lyon to reinforce and weld all the fences, these zombies became turtles in the urn.
Leon and the others didn't need to go in and engage in close combat with the zombies at all, and if it weren't for the various equipment and resources in the shopping street and residential areas, he might even gather an artillery regiment and bomb the place to the ground.
When almost all the employees of the Umbrella Company were assembled here, Lyon issued two new decrees based on the situation.
The first decree is a compensation agreement, in order to compensate for the loss of these more than 200 stunned elite fighters, the company will fully bear the medical expenses of these fighters, their salaries will be paid normally, and their relatives will be distributed, and the company's internal researchers will do their best to study the antidote to treat them, so that these capable fighters will not be left in this state for a long time.
The second order is the recruitment order, which will temporarily relax the recruitment requirements for 400 recruits and conduct a three-month training period due to the rapid expansion of the company.
The more than 60,000 zombies in residential and commercial areas will become the training targets of these recruits, allowing them to train in firearms.
These two emerging policies have eased tensions within the company to a certain extent, and the expansion of the military force has also provided residents with a greater sense of security.
For half a month, Lyon did not go out, and was in an extremely busy state, mediating the contradictions within the company, eliminating the estrangement between the old and new members, suppressing the rebellion of the captives, and providing medical care, education, work, housing, and other miscellaneous chores for more old and weak women and children.
This made him deeply appreciate the difficulties of being a leader, as well as the merits and hard work of little Amy in the past.
He decided to add more administrative staff after this period had passed, so that the whole organization could run more smoothly.
However, there is also a lot of good news in this hectic process.
As the top leader in the engineering department, Professor Thomas agreed with Leon very much after conducting various tests on the spider silk provided by Leon.
After many days of discussions with other experienced blacksmiths, tailors, and engineers in the engineering department, he teamed up to create a composite armor called the Guardian Armor.
This is a light composite armor, the main body is made of, some alloy armor pieces and special spider silk stitched, although the weight is only about 6 kilograms, but its defense is very amazing, not only to slash and stab have quite amazing defense, even if it is continuously attacked by light firearms, it will not cause fatal damage to the wearer.
When you wear it, you are almost immune to attacks from normal zombies and ordinary pillagers.
But due to the physical properties of special spider silk, this armor also has two drawbacks.
The first disadvantage is that its defense against blunt weapon damage is relatively weak, if it is a blunt weapon such as a club, hitting the spider silk defense outside the armor piece, it will cause relatively large damage to the flesh, so in the same way, in the face of damage such as explosions and shockwaves, the defense of this armor is not outstanding.
The second disadvantage is that once this armor is worn, it cannot be used in rainy or underwater environments, and once this armor absorbs excess water, it is likely to overswell in size, and even hinder the wearer's combat.
But even so, this set of Guardian armor is undoubtedly a very powerful piece of equipment, and the main equipment of the special operations team that he has been thinking about for a long time has finally been found.
Unfortunately, due to the limitation of the number of special spider silks, the number of Guardian armor can only be maintained at about 20 sets unless one more mutant spider of this model is found.
The second piece of good news is that after the research of Dr. Mepharah and Professor Jacob, the reason for the mutation of this particular spider monster has also been found.
It turned out that this monster was born in a warehouse where nuclear materials were stored, and it devoured a large amount of zombie flesh and blood under the condition of severe nuclear radiation, so that the nuclear radiation and the loss virus in the body formed a special symbiotic relationship, greatly strengthening its original size and strength, and changing its basic genes.
Not only that, but in the course of these ten months, it even swallowed quite a lot of nuclear materials and a large number of zombie viruses.
What is surprising is that the nuclear material was actually broken down in his body, forming a very special synthetic substance, which diffused in his body, and those super anesthetic factors in his blood were also mutated because of these wonderful reactions.
At present, Dr. Melfa and Professor Jacob are also unable to analyze what that very particular synthetic substance does, and how it is produced.
However, they can use the blood of mutant spiders to create a special super anesthetic that requires only a dose the size of a fingernail to put an elephant into suspended animation in less than 30 seconds.
As for the antidote to this super anesthetic, they also have an idea, and it is expected that the antidote to this super anesthetic will be researched within a few months.
By then, it should be possible to wake up the more than 700 patients who had fainted in the hospital.
These two pieces of news relieved Leon's anxiety and made him focus his work back on government affairs.
