Star City Concert Hall.
Nearly a hundred players gathered here.
As the end times suddenly arrived and the noon bells rang, they were rehearsing, preparing for the evening's events.
Unlike other crowded museums and libraries, the atmosphere inside the concert hall was rather quiet.
However, it was in such a place, and in such a group of people, that they escaped from the concert hall after going through countless life-and-death battles.
He then used this place as a base to lead the other survivors in clearing out the surrounding zombies.
And all of this is thanks to one person.
Liu Tianlong, the band's conductor, has always been a die-hard fan of post-apocalyptic novels.
He has read at least a thousand, if not a thousand, post-apocalyptic novels.
When the end times truly arrived, he demonstrated astonishing leadership as a visionary and thoughtful individual.
In leading everyone to safety, he not only demonstrated outstanding organizational skills, but also showed decisiveness at crucial moments.
He first led the survivors of the orchestra to successfully rescue the trapped dance troupe and some other survivors scattered throughout the concert hall.
He not only planned a meticulous escape route, but also led his team to successfully wipe out several small zombie hordes.
In the end, he successfully led everyone to break through the encirclement and fight their way out of the concert hall.
This made the concert hall the only safe haven in the river delta.
Liu Tianlong named the concert hall "Never-Sleeping Star City," which was the name of a bar he frequented when he attended the concert.
Liu Tianlong not only far surpassed others in equipment and level, but also became the true leader of this group.
But when people feel helpless, they tend to follow the crowd.
Because once you leave this large group and choose to survive alone, your chances of survival will be greatly reduced.
These people gathered together because they believed that it was good to take shelter under a big tree.
So when Liu Tianlong raised his arms and shouted, most people chose to follow, and only a few chose to leave.
In the process of hunting zombies, they not only obtained supplies to survive, but also acquired some equipment.
The thrill of killing and leveling up excites everyone.
Despite having gone through such difficulties, they should have been more cautious and avoided taking risks again, but instead they began to become arrogant.
But at that moment, Liu Tianlong made a decision that he would later deeply regret.
He allowed the survivors to join his "Never-Sleeping Star City" without careful consideration.
Within just two days, numerous survivors gathered from all directions and joined the effort.
They joined for different reasons; some joined to survive, while others hoped to try their luck.
With more people, morale drops, and the team becomes harder to manage!
As the number of people continued to grow, the team gradually split into two opposing forces.
These two forces are evenly matched in terms of both numbers and the quality of their troops, and neither is willing to give way to the other.
One group was led by Liu Tianlong; they were artists from out of town who had fought their way up from the concert hall.
The other team, led by Huang Ding, consisted of a group of newly joined opportunists, most of whom were locals from Xingcheng.
When the two sides are evenly matched, opposing the other side becomes politically correct.
Those who joined "Never-Sleeping Star City" early on deeply admired Liu Tianlong's leadership and capabilities.
They clamored to storm into the museum and show off their skills.
After all, they came from out of town and were originally alone and helpless.
Therefore, they all understand that in order to survive in this dangerous world, they must constantly improve their own strength.
The newly joined teams, however, had never received Liu Tianlong's protection.
Their goal, under the protection of the team, is to infiltrate concert halls or basements and hunt down lone zombies, seeking only temporary safety.
Liu Tianlong knew that it was better to finish the fight quickly than to waste energy on verbal disputes.
To ensure the continued existence of "Never-Sleeping Star City," he had to establish absolute authority.
After in-depth discussions with several followers, Liu Tianlong reached a consensus with them.
Regardless of whether the other party joins or not, there are a large number of zombies in the museum.
They can provide them with a great deal of experience, supplies, and equipment, so an offensive operation must be launched.
However, breaking through the square was impossible, as it was teeming with tens of thousands of zombies.
If they are angered, the entire "Never-Sleeping Star City" will face annihilation.
"Stop arguing! It'll be dark in a few hours. You can explore the concert hall and basement on your own. We'll leave for the museum at 8 a.m. tomorrow," Liu Tianlong announced decisively.
His followers, upon hearing this, excitedly whistled in agreement.
However, Huang Ding immediately objected. "The museum? There are too many zombies there! Shouldn't we wait another day until we have more people to join the 'Never-Sleeping Star City' operation?"
According to his plan, more people would join "Never-Sleeping Star City" the next day.
Leveraging his connections and influence in the old Star City, he knew that it wouldn't be difficult to bring these new members under his wing through coercion and enticement.
In this way, he will have an overwhelming advantage in numbers over Liu Tianlong and other outsiders.
At that time, he will raise his arm and call to action, officially bringing "Never-Sleeping Star City" under his jurisdiction.
In a way, they managed to leave their mark in the apocalypse.
"Don't worry, although it's very difficult to break through from the front of the square, attacking from the basement should be feasible," Liu Tianlong explained patiently.
"Is it feasible? There are only a little over 100 of us in total. If we go in now, how can you guarantee that we will all come back alive?" Huang Ding questioned loudly.
"This...it's settled then! I announce it as the leader! I said it!" Liu Tianlong hesitated for a moment, but ultimately made the decision firmly.
Huang Ding and his supporters exchanged smiles; they had made up their minds.
We'll hold back tomorrow and wait to see Liu Tianlong make a fool of himself.
The crowd suddenly erupted into a commotion, surging like boiling water.
Fortunately, the concert hall has good soundproofing, otherwise it might have attracted zombies.
Liu Tianlong knew in his heart that no matter how he explained, those who decided not to listen would not change their minds.
At that moment, he felt a pang of regret.
In exchange for a brief period of power, he took in so many uncontrollable people.
At the same time, he was reluctant to give up the empire he had worked so hard to build.
Ultimately, Liu Tianlong was addicted to the feeling of being admired by the masses and wielding a certain amount of power.
However, when a more ambitious person appeared, he began to worry about whether he would be replaced.
...
At this moment, Su Yue and Lu Wei had changed into ordinary clothes, without the slightest ostentation.
Their personal information is hidden under the guise of a disguise.
From a distance, he looks only slightly better than the average person.
Nobody noticed.
As a kind-looking man slowly walked down the stairs, no one noticed his arrival.
Behind him followed a petite and adorable little girl wearing a disguise mask.
