Chapter 367: Chapter 367: Two Factions
“B city?”
Su Jin frowned and began to recall.
“Yes, these past few days a group from B City arrived, claiming they are from the National Control Center, here to inspect the various bases. However, rumors also suggest that this is a move by the higher-ups to implement unified management across the bases, hence they sent people to scout things out first,”
Mao Zhihang said. He had heard quite a few pieces of news in the store these past couple of days, but that was the gist of it.
“Exactly, exactly, those exact words, ‘National Control Center.’ The moment she mentioned it, I felt a thump in my heart, terrified that it would bring major trouble to our base,”
Huang Yunxiang recalled what those two people said before leaving and couldn’t help but worry.
Even Lin Yunguo and Liu Xiuying, who had just heard about the incident, couldn’t help feeling anxious.
If the store really disappeared, how would they sell the items from their space?
“Don’t worry, Liang Jiuhui knows what’s important. He would be truly foolish to touch our store,”
Lu Hao said.
Su Jin also nodded in agreement. She wasn’t worried about Liang Jiuhui; her concern was more about the group Mao Zhihang talked about. Since they could travel all the way from B City to S City, those people must possess some capabilities. If they really caused a disturbance at the store, she truly worried that Guo Yang and her family might get hurt.
“Daughter-in-law, don’t worry. We will all head down to the store and keep an eye on things these next few days. I refuse to believe they would dare to mess with us on our turf,” Lu Guanhai said.
“Exactly, exactly, we have many hands, and besides, our special abilities are not weak. There’s nothing to fear,”
Su Xiangzhe also offered words of comfort.
His hair had grown a bit during these days, so he was no longer wearing his hat every day. Though it was still just a light layer of hair, because everyone ate well and stayed active in the apocalypse, he now appeared much more lively.
“Alright, I understand. All of you also be careful,”
Comforted by the two fathers, her worries could no longer ferment.
But speaking of B City, could it be that they started causing trouble from this point on?
B City was indeed the central city of the whole country before the apocalypse, but it turned into one of several major power bases afterward.
Among them, the Han Family and the Wei Family were predominant. The Wei Family was okay, but the Han Family never stopped expanding their power. It was unknown what they relied on, but they had annexed various bases, large and small, placing their descendants and confidants in those bases, even making some of them base leaders.
But the Wei Family always maintained a silent posture, and because they never stirred up trouble, many bases were willing to support the Wei faction.
The upper echelons all understood that in the first few years of the apocalypse, and likely even longer afterward, it was natural for each base to develop independently. However, unifying these bases under one management was the trend. But for now, not only were communications broken down, even transportation was disrupted, so they were still in the early stages of individual development.
“So, is it time to start picking sides now?”
Lu Hao asked after listening to Su Jin’s words.
“Yes, it might not be very clear now, but soon, the Han and Wei families will form opposing sides, and that’s when the Han Family will start causing trouble,”
Su Jin sighed.
In her past life as well, she couldn’t understand why these rulers, perhaps too well-fed, couldn’t focus on killing more zombies to tackle the Zombie Virus instead.
Why must they always knock each other down?
