These people want to build their own power and seize control of Star City.
Are there many of them?
If their numbers are large, they pose a significant threat to the authorities.
"According to our intelligence, tens of thousands of people have already gathered."
They called themselves the New Army, and their leader was a lightning-based ability user named Lu Honglin.
Zhao Liang sighed, noting that their Xingcheng military force currently only numbered 70,000.
If the new army continues to grow like this, its numbers could increase even further.
"Because Lu Honglin is a lightning-type, he is a strong person among superpowers."
We don't even have a single lightning-type monster here, but there is one over in the Birch District.
Therefore, most of the superhumans have been won over by them.
Those with superpowers who refuse to be won over will be cruelly killed.
Our military has encountered this situation several times and rescued several people.
Star City is now divided into 8 districts, named after trees, and governed by different divisions.
Jingxiu Xingcheng belongs to the Spruce District, while the headquarters of the new generation of soldiers are in the Sophora japonica District.
The garrison in the Chinese scholar tree district had to fight zombies and rescue survivors while also guarding against those who stole supplies and took lives.
At this point, those superhumans might still be somewhat wary, but once their abilities are upgraded, guns become completely ineffective.
Therefore, the leaders above have already held several meetings.
"Why not take advantage of their current weakness and strike first?"
Knowing they have ulterior motives, shouldn't we take the initiative?
"The main issue is that the government is now divided into two factions: 'war' and 'peace.' The two sides are deadlocked, which has led to the current situation."
The "peace faction" believes that those with superpowers can be recruited, and their future fighting power should not be underestimated.
As the zombies upgrade in the future, they may become the main fighting force, so it would be best to negotiate an agreement that satisfies both sides.
The "war faction" believes that human desires are insatiable, and giving in will only make them feel there's still room for maneuver, leading to ever-increasing demands and an insatiable appetite.
The main force of the "war faction" consists of people from the military.
Fang Xiyue seemed to be thinking about something, and said that it was true that the main force for killing zombies in the future would be people with superpowers.
The 'peace faction's' desire for amnesty is not wrong, but the 'war faction's' idea is also very likely to happen.
She doesn't know which side to support now. Isn't there a way to get them to willingly serve the country?
As long as the country's leaders are on the side of the people, Fang Xiyue is still willing to stand on this side.
"Alright, Xiyue, let the people above worry about the difficult problems."
"Let's focus on completing our mission first and making sure those superhumans don't steal our supplies."
Seeing that Fang Xiyue was worried, Zhao Liang quickly changed the subject.
Those people must have already seen what's happening here, so her existence will definitely be known to them over there.
What if they do something to Fang Xiyue? No, we absolutely cannot let them spread the news.
Just as Fang Xiyue was about to tell Zhao Liang that someone was watching them.
Zhao Liang's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he gestured to the other soldiers.
Oh? Looks like you've discovered it.
Zhao Liang is also a psychic ability user, and it seems that his training over the past two days has begun to show results.
Soon, five soldiers quietly withdrew from the scene. A moment later, the sounds of fighting were heard, and then three men were brought over; none of them escaped.
"Let us go! What right do you have to arrest us?"
"So what if you're soldiers? You think you can just arrest civilians like that?"
"We just happened to be passing by. What crime did we commit?"
The three people struggled and questioned each other.
"Whether you've committed a crime or not needs to be determined through interrogation. You've been sneaking into our jurisdiction. Arresting you is the right thing to do. Take you away!"
Zhao Liang had no intention of arguing with them; he left this kind of interrogation to the professionals.
The three people were gagged, stuffed into a car, and driven away.
Fang Xiyue and her group then collected all the remaining supplies.
"Xiyue, should we talk to the company commander about sending someone to protect your family?"
Although three people were caught, it doesn't mean there weren't other people watching nearby.
It is highly likely that there are other people outside their field of vision. Xi Yue should already be known to those people, and her family will also be exposed to them.
Zhao Liang made this suggestion so that Xi Yue could feel at ease coming out with them on missions, as Xi Yue is now a very important member to their military.
"Brother Liang, you forgot? My family members are all neighbors with you soldiers, so they are very safe."
Although you go out to do missions during the day, there are also many retired soldiers in the shop.
Don't worry, nothing will happen. But I'd feel even more at ease if you could send someone to protect me.
In fact, Fang Xiyue's greatest reliance was not the soldiers, but the system.
Her shop and building are absolutely safe places; nothing outside can harm her. As long as she doesn't go out, she'll be fine.
Moreover, Xi Yue arranged for ten retired soldiers to pick up the families and take them to the shop every morning, and that section of the road was relatively safe.
However, she would certainly feel more at ease if more people could protect her family.
"Okay, I'll report it to my superiors when I get back."
Zhao Liang nodded; he still thought it was better to send someone to protect him.
In particular, Jingxiu Star City has the most supplies, and he was worried that the new army would have their eyes on that place.
Besides their military supplies, the Newborn Army will certainly not let go of Xiyue's 20 shops either.
