Humans adapted to the doomsday faster than they imagined.
They had gained sufficient understanding of the dangers.
Those Zombie Kings or advanced mutants were very dangerous.
But they also brought huge benefits.
However, Zombie Kings were very rare, and one just appeared in Donghuashi.
Once, a level 1 evolver, relying on his talent, tried to challenge the Zombie King alone.
He was torn to pieces in one second.
The stronger the Zombie King, the purer its energy core.
Blood Bear's sudden aggressive annexation of other shelters also suggested he aimed to consolidate Donghuashi's forces to hunt the Zombie King.
Wang Hai wanted to use this information as a gift to the Dongdu Qin Family
to exchange for a chance to enter Dongdu.
...
After two or three hours, a majestic city gradually appeared before them.
"Is this Dongdu?"
Wang Zhi's eyes widened, amazed at the scene.
As a Donghuashi native, she had visited Dongdu a few times in the old era.
But this was the most shocking time.
The gray-white steel and concrete city walls enclosed the city solemnly, like a city of miracles.
Countless high-powered searchlights illuminated a kilometer around the walls, making it as bright as day.
Armed helicopters constantly patrolled.
The dense firepower points on the walls made one's scalp tingle.
Calling this city a fortress of bitterness and gold was no exaggeration.
After the catastrophe, seeing the city's collapse made Dongdu's grandeur more apparent!
The searchlights on the walls all turned toward the off-road vehicle.
Wang Hai and Wang Zhi quickly got out, raising their hands to show no hostility.
But they knew Dongdu already knew of their arrival.
Along the way, some shelters stopped them and questioned their intentions.
That was when Wang Hai learned those shelters had become Dongdu's satellite outposts...
Their movements had naturally been reported to Dongdu.
They slowly approached a heavily guarded entrance.
Hundreds of fully armed soldiers were stationed at firepower points, with over a dozen rapid-fire machine guns and artillery.
Wang Hai also noticed several men in black military uniforms, radiating intense danger, coldly watching them.
These men were probably evolvers...
An officer approached, arrogantly looking at Wang Hai and said calmly, "Name, identity, and purpose."
This officer had no awakened talent and was an ordinary person, but his gaze was like looking down on ants.
There was no reverence ordinary people normally showed to evolvers.
Yet this attitude did not anger Wang Hai.
Instead, it made him feel fear—like commoners facing nobles in the old era, cautious and timid.
Because Wang Hai knew, though the officer was ordinary, behind him stood the colossal Qin Family.
He, a lone evolver wandering the wilderness, could not provoke them!
"My name is Wang Hai. I am a level 1 evolver with a D-tier flame control talent.
This is my niece Wang Zhi, also a level 1 evolver with a B-tier shadow disguise talent.
We have important intelligence to report!"
Wang Hai honestly disclosed everything. Wang Zhi dared not utter a word beside him.
The pressure these people gave her was immense!
The officer scrutinized them, then nodded and said coldly, "Fill out a form first."
Fill out a form...
Wang Hai felt speechless, as if time had turned back to the old era when forms were needed for everything...
But he nodded and quickly filled it out.
They were then led by the officer through the high walls into Dongdu City.
Upon entering, Wang Hai and Wang Zhi showed expressions of great shock.
The streets on both sides were brightly lit, with neon lights flickering in a colorful cyberpunk style.
Though this nightlife was far less prosperous than the old era, it moved them to tears and deeply impressed them.
This Dongdu was truly a utopia in the doomsday era!
No wonder so many evolvers wanted to enter Dongdu to serve the Qin Family as dogs.
Their shelters compared to Dongdu were mere dog kennels!
Wang Zhi thought to herself how magnificent this doomsday city was, yet it was owned and operated by one family.
And that Qin Family—everyone there had awakened talents, truly the "chosen family" as people said.
If gods really existed, this family had been favored too much...
...
At the Qin Family Mansion, Qin Jun was in the conference room listening to reports from subordinates.
"Young master, all zombie groups near Dongdu have basically been cleared, and all shelters have submitted to us.
However, the surface changes are too great. The new survey team is mapping, and the first version should be ready in three days."
"Also, we received news from other regions. In the former Qingjiang Province, there is an organization called 'Dawn of Hope.'
This group has recruited some former military, with about a hundred evolvers and hundreds of thousands of ordinary people.
Additionally, there is the 'Northern Army,' originally the Second Northern Army Group, which survived the catastrophe and seems to have many talent-awakened members."
Qin Jun nodded, unsurprised.
With time, not only would shelters appear one by one, but large organizations like these would certainly emerge.
This was the social structure best suited for this era—warlordism amid danger.
But these groups posed no threat to the Qin Family yet.
Firstly, because the surface had expanded, these groups were far from Dongdu.
Secondly, even combined, they were no match.
Qin Jun's current concern was his own strength.
At that moment, Xie Han entered and interrupted the meeting.
The generals and officials showed no displeasure, instead greeting Xie Han kindly.
Although Xie Han was just a personal bodyguard, he was Qin Jun's confidant and even his partner.
They dared not offend him.
Xie Han approached Qin Jun and whispered, "Young master, we just received news. Two evolvers from Donghuashi claim to have information about a Zombie King."
