The night was bitterly cold, and when the soldiers from the first settlement returned, all the residents thought they had returned victorious.

But seeing the rows of people with their heads down and mournful faces, they realized in disbelief that the first settlement had failed!

How could the Guardian Group be so terrifying?

Everyone was deeply shocked!

"boom"

The entire first settlement was in an uproar. Although it was late, everyone was still discussing it.

Many people are wavering. Perhaps it's no longer safe to stay here. Guardian Group is safer. Let's move!

In the days that followed, the Guardian Group experienced a massive influx of immigrants, not only from the primary settlement but also from other settlements.

The Guardian Group was bustling with people, as Weren did not hinder its expansion.

As for the 5 million zombie cores, the First Gathering Place obediently delivered them as well.

At this moment, the Guardian Group has reached its peak!

For many people in the surrounding area, joining the Guardian Group is their biggest dream, and there are even rumors that the Guardian Group contains missiles.

After this news came out, the number of immigrants increased even more!

Fu Xixi is in charge of the administrative management of the entire Guardian Group.

The recent population surge is causing her great concern. Although the newcomers have brought wealth and resources, the Guardian Group is, after all, only so big.

A region with a population of 5,000 was forced to recruit 10,000 people; this was simply unsustainable.

Finally, Fu Xixi arrived at headquarters.

"Boss, this population has completely exceeded the capacity of our Guardian Group to receive it!"

"Moreover, people are still coming in droves, and housing prices have been driven up to very high levels! This has already caused a lot of dissatisfaction!"

Fu Xixi reported to Wei Lun, looking extremely anxious.

Wei Lun, however, was playing with a small robot designed by Du Kun, which looked like a toy.

"Fu Xixi, don't worry. How about this, we don't need to stop the people who come."

"Now expand the Guardian Group, begin construction in the wild, and double the area!"

Wei Lun looked up, smiled, and said to Fu Xixi,

Clearly, this is a massive project that requires a lot of money. The reason it hasn't been mentioned before is that the Guardian Group doesn't have that much capital.

Now that we have 5 million zombie cores, plus the funds from the Guardian Group, it's more than enough.

"Allocating 10 million zombie crystals, is that feasible?"

With a faint hint of confidence on his lips, Wei Lun asked.

"Hmm, ten million should be enough!"

After receiving the boss's reply, Fu Xixi immediately went back and began gathering manpower to expand the business.

Thus, the Guardian Group embarked on a massive expansion campaign.

Initially, many unemployed people enthusiastically signed up; this project was so large that over a thousand people were recruited to start work.

At this moment, the primary gathering place is constantly lamenting to the four southern city-states.

In the central urban area of ​​Changhan City

Among the high-ranking officials of the four southern city-states, Jiang Tian is the highest-ranking leader.

Suddenly, a cup was smashed.

"This stupid First Gathering Place provoked us on its own initiative, got beaten up so badly, and still complains to us!"

"Hmph, it would have been better if they had won, but they actually lost. A bunch of useless trash."

"Send a batch of mutated meat to the first settlement as a token of our appreciation. That's all!"

As Jiang Tian spoke, he ordered his subordinates to send over a token of sympathy. In reality, what use could such a small amount of mutated meat possibly be?

However, the four southern city-states could not directly send troops to the Guardian Group because of this matter.

After all, the Guardians were not the instigators of this war, and they were the ultimate victors.

Jiang Tian learned about the guards' equipment and felt deeply worried.

It's important to understand that even the four southern city-states only possessed a limited number of laser weapons.

There was no armor at all; these things should have been mostly destroyed during a disaster. It's a mystery how the Guardians Group obtained them.

Jiang Tian sat on a leather armchair.

He lit a cigarette; it was from the Guardian Group.

"From now on, I'm afraid our city-state is about to undergo a major upheaval!"

Jiang Tian stared at the light on the ceiling, unable to fall asleep even late at night, all because of this matter.

Although the mediation was successful, the First Settlement suffered a crushing defeat based on the battle results!

What does this mean? The entire settlement of the four southern city-states is no match for the Guardian Group!

In other words, the Guardian Group is already number one in the true sense!

"Boss, this Guardian Group is too arrogant, we can't let this go!"

"That's right, boss! This is the Southern Four City-States, not just Wei Lun's territory!"

"In my opinion, the Guardian Group has already become quite powerful! We can't afford to offend them easily!"

"Hmph, they've actually denied the previous agreement. What advantage do we have left now?"

"Can't we find a way to trip them up?"

...

Inside Jiang Tian's office, the management team was in a noisy scramble; everyone was furious with the Guardian Group.

Jiang Tian looked at everyone and slowly began to speak.

"Did you know they also have missiles?"

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, utterly shocked.

In other words, if the Guardians wanted to attack any region of the four southern city-states, it would be as easy as child's play.

If a conflict were to actually occur, they would face utter annihilation.

Even if the entire assembly and the various settlements are guaranteed to win, what's the point if they're all ultimately destroyed?

Is this damned apocalypse going to be attacked by missiles again?

Everyone was disheartened. The Guardian Group cannot be humiliated!

...

Wei Lun was currently inspecting the wounded in the medical ward, offering his condolences and comfort to each of them.

Because it was getting late, after chatting with the wounded, Wei Lun prepared to leave the apocalypse.

After this stop, the nearby settlements will quiet down, and no one will dare to provoke the Guardians Group again.

Wei Lun was relieved and said goodbye to Qin Mutong.

After activating the black jade pendant, Wei Lun returned to the modern manor.

Upon opening the room door, Wei Lun found that everyone in the manor was already resting, so he didn't disturb them.

After washing up, I lay comfortably on my super king-size bed.

Wei Lun turned on his tablet and looked at some news about Jue Lun Technology Group, as well as some files in his email, which he then processed.

Now, the apocalypse has subsided, and modern corporations have become giants.

Wei Lun had never felt so relaxed; he seemed incredibly happy.

At night, because he was hungry, Wei Lun ordered takeout on his phone.

A large batch of kebabs and other barbecued items were delivered, so Wei Lun simply ordered a few bottles of beer and ate and drank alone in his room.

Very enjoyable, and because he was quite tipsy, Wei Lun fell asleep.

The next day, as the morning light shone in,

Wei Lun looked at himself lying on the bedside table, shook his head, and chuckled self-deprecatingly. He figured he'd probably drunk too much afterward.

After tidying up the room, Wei Lun washed up and went downstairs.

Xue Qingshan, Tang Jiao, Wei Ruoqing, Zhao Xiang, and Xiao Xiannv were all there. Wei Lun arrived on the first floor with a confident smile on his face.

Happy Lunar New Year's Eve! Wishing everyone a joyous and happy new year and a happy family reunion! Thank you for your continued support!
