My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Chapter 13 Fiancee

After driving around for two hours, they had yet to leave the city so Kisha decided to find a silent place to rest and eat.

She drove around but found none, Duke then told her to drive straight to the East district where the influential and powerful lived. That place was well protected.

Even if they have to deal with zombies, they will be able to handle the number and not be overwelmed. There was also a sturdy gate and walls protecting the whole district.

So Kisha obliged. "Do you also live there?" She asked.

Duke nodded and answered indifferently. "I own the whole district."

Kisha's lips twitch. "No wonder he seems confident." She thought.

Keith looked at Duke as if he were looking at a new continent, only then did he realize that the rich have different levels of richness that poor people like them would never fathom.

As they pulled over at the front gate of the Lakeside villa, Hawk from the convoy jogged straight onto the gate and did some climbing and jumping like he was doing an intense rock climbing. If it was just a normal human, they would not be able to do what he just did.

In just a few minutes, he opened the gate from the guard house, when Kisha and Eagle drove past the gate, Hawk closed it again and went inside the second car.

Duke told Kisha to go to the central part of the district where his villa is located. She drove around the silent road, noticing the fluttering curtains in some of the villa's windows, she guessed that the survivors of the district were probably hiding in their houses, they might have been waiting to be rescued.

She sneered in her heart. "As if there will be someone to rescue you. Even the government has already disbanded."

She remembered on her third rebirth, she was also like them. She always believed in the government and so, they did their best to persevere.

Zombies would crowd their hallway and they couldn't even fall asleep from the occasional banging of the door and loud growls.

When she closed her eyes, her mind would always subconciously think that their door would be crowded with zombies and eat them. She would see some survivors from time to time but they can't go past the residential area because zombies are everywhere.

But she still believed that the government was taking a little time to reorganize and help other places. Until they died from starvation, they did not hate them and believed that they must be lacking manpower to do the rescue in other places.

Not until she reached her 20th rebirth that she found out from a soldier that the higher-ups in the government used the soldiers as their own guards, securing their own families and wealth to a safe base and reorganized their position and lord over the people who came to them for refuge.

In the guise of protection, they would send the civilians to find supplies, sometimes they didn't even send soldiers and just let the civilians fend for themselves and they would very rarely send some soldiers to go with them while the majority of the forces was guarding the base.

And they even invoke heavy taxes in the base. Everything has tax. Going in the base would require an entry fee, and renting a place costs supplies but it also has additional tax and more.

The higher echelon didn't need to go outside to kill zombies or find supplies. They are well fed and protected inside, even the management was on someone else's shoulders.
