Chapter 418: Chapter 190 Zijing City Power Distribution_2

They quickly formed a power called Zijin Prison. Using the original prison as their base, considering its defenses were quite good, zombies couldn’t get in at all.

And those felons, they became the rulers of the prison.

After gaining strength and authority, one could imagine what it was like for those under their rule; nearly all of them met a terrible end. Being killed was the least of it – most were tortured to death!

Even the ordinary criminals who had initially released them didn’t end up faring well.

However, with the diminishing number of people, those felons realized they couldn’t act recklessly anymore. After all, if they killed everyone, who would do their work?

But their reputation had already spread, and no survivors dared to approach the prison, they couldn’t recruit anyone.

So, they started to use some special methods. Such as capturing survivors from outside to toil for them, or buying survivors from other factions…

Nie Siyan had said before that Wang Tao and the other outside survivors could be sold for a high price, referring to being sold to the prison.

…

The third-ranked force was a relatively latecomer with a more loosely managed structure, named “Ability User’s Alliance.” The name was quite grand.

And the reason for this name was because this faction only accepted Ability Users.

Their base was within a small stadium, not many people, but collectively they were very strong – after all, they were all Ability Users.

However, their reputation… wasn’t too good either.

Because they were very arrogant, they looked down on ordinary people, unwilling to stay with them, and even considered themselves as “the new humankind.”

Maybe this group didn’t enslave or torture ordinary people, but if they saw ordinary people in crisis, they definitely wouldn’t lend a hand, no matter how easy it would be to help.

In some ways, their mental state was somewhat problematic…

…

The fourth-ranked force was called “Vast,” and sure enough, it was the name of a club. Their base was also in this club, so survivors generally referred to them as “the Club.”

This faction was slightly special because it was comprised entirely of women – they didn’t recruit any men.

The initial form of this force was said to be a group of women from Vast Club.

They came from humble beginnings, and their identities were not entirely dignified, but their hearts were in the right place, wanting to unite survivors to resist the disaster collectively.

But who would have thought that their leader was deceived by a scumbag. The scumbag ran off with the Crystal Core, causing their leader’s death, and he even tried to deceive them further to take the leader’s position for himself.

Eventually, the others discovered his ploy in time and stopped him, but from then on, they never trusted men again.

When they formally established the faction, they only recruited women.

But women were generally physically weaker than men, a disadvantage in a post-apocalyptic world. Their confidence in not needing men stemmed from their new leader being a very strong Ability User!

Without this new leader, their faction might have been just ordinary, and because they were all women, they might have been quickly swallowed up by other factions to the point of obliteration.

However, there were rumors of unrest within the Club recently…

…

These were the current four major forces of Zijing City – the Base, the Prison, the Alliance, and the Club.

Aside from these four major forces and some smaller factions too insignificant to mention, there were also some medium-sized factions with a degree of renown. Their might wasn’t equivalent to the larger factions, but they weren’t weak either, considered the second tier. There were about a dozen such factions.

Nie Siyan was from one such medium-sized faction known as the Skull Club. More precisely, she was the wife of the Skull Club leader.

The Skull Club could be considered one of the most notorious forces in Zijing City. This wasn’t Wang Tao’s opinion, but rather, the words directly from Nie Siyan herself.

Because this faction specialized in all manner of deceit! They used to deceive the survivors of Zijing City, and when word spread, they couldn’t trick them anymore, they began deceiving outside survivors.

Although they claimed “they only wanted money, not lives,” no one knew how many had indirectly died because of them. Especially those who were sold to the Prison, where once you enter, there was basically no hope of coming out alive…

Actually, Wang Tao only needed a rough idea about these factions; he wasn’t particularly interested. What truly interested him was the military base.

But Nie Siyan didn’t know much about the military base. She knew that some people went there, but since no one ever sent back any news, it was unclear whether they were dead or alive.

As for the neighboring Wuyang City, Nie Siyan had some information.

Survivors who had fled from Wuyang City said that there were extremely terrifying gigantic zombie monsters. Even a Level 2 Ability User, if they encountered these zombie creatures, would be crushed to death. Survivors had no chance of living; many strong survivors had fled…

This news made Wang Tao frown. The military base was located in Wuyang City. If Wuyang City was so dangerous, how would he get there?

And yet, the military base seemed fine, regularly air-dropping supplies, not appearing to be in great danger.

Shaking his head, Wang Tao stopped contemplating. It was useless to think – he could only know for sure by going there himself.

Originally, Wang Tao planned to gather information in Zijing City before making minor preparations to head to the military base in Wuyang City.
