The eight ability user teams had finally been formed. Each team leader was a top-ranking master in the base and had extensive operational experience. The result was very satisfactory to the military.
The ability users were precious existence and naturally, the military was unwilling to see the separation of strong and weak people. Only when the forces were balanced, the strong and weak working together, could the ability user grow safely and smoothly. This was also the main reason why Father Gong didn't let Gong Lixin, Lin Wenbo, and Song Haoran team up.
The team leaders of each group didn't rush to take a task, but had their team members do special training. During this special training period, a group of people named by other groups, 'Wastewood Alliance', became better at the speed of sound. Even Da Liu and Ling Yun, who were ordinary people, together could defeat some of the stronger ability users on the base. Once again, everyone witnessed that miracles existed.
One day, the military issued the first task which was to clear the zombies in the towns and villages around National Road 306, collect agricultural products left in the township, and bring them back to base.

On both sides of National Road 306, there were large sections of vegetable gardens and orchards. It was the largest agricultural base in the province. There were hundreds of large and small villages and towns with a population totalling nearly 200000. It was very difficult to annihilate the zombies in these towns and villages, but at the same time, the agricultural products seized would enrich their lives. These were very important supplies, for the extreme lack of fresh fruits and vegetables could lead to people suffering from scurvy.
Due to the task being voluntary in nature, no team was willing to take care of it for three days, and the military didn't urge them either. They all just waited quietly. On a certain day, Gong Lixin and Wang Tao walked into the military department without hesitation. When they came out, they took back a map with them. Shortly after they left, Song Haoran and Lin Wenbo also went to the military department to receive the task.
The other teams didn't move and were willing to wait until those three groups came back to see the situation.
The heads of the three teams gathered to inspect the map. After more than an hour of discussion, Yangjia Village, which was the closest to the base, was the village selected for clearing. It was said that the three team leaders discussed it together. However, in reality, Lin Wenbo and Song Haoran came up with this idea. Gong Lixin just stared at the map and finally agreed with the two.
In order to save on gasoline, the army sent only one military truck which carried 30 people to the National Road 306.
The truck was big enough and, even if thirty people were already sitting or crouching, it still wasn't too crowded. The members of Song Haoran and Gong Lixin's team were very calm. They either chatted together or played with the weapons in their hands. The most relaxed ones were Gu Nan, Ma Jun, and Wang Tao. The three men took out a deck of cards and played landlord. The team members of Lin Wenbo, on the other hand, just looked straight ahead.
Lin Wenbo's team members were all Gong Xiangyi's picks. They had excellent talent and had powerful abilities, but most of them did not have practical experience so it was inevitable that they were highly tense. Gong Xiangyi saw the members' emotional changes and quickly tried to comfort everyone.

Lin Wenbo sat next to Gong Lixin, his lips raised up as he cleaned the blade for the other person, acting as if he was not the leader of the third group. Gong Xiangyi already did all the work of a team leader, so he didn't have to worry about it.
