The young red-haired man felt a little uneasy and regretted his impulsive decision to come.
He was the leader of the Red Sun settlement, and his name was Red Steed.
Before the apocalypse, he worked in a steel factory. Shortly after the apocalypse, he awakened his fire-based superpowers.
His superpower had an extremely high temperature. The first time he used his superpower to kill a zombie, he used too much force and burned the zombie to ashes.
A zero-level energy crystal landed on the ground and caught his attention, thus beginning his path to a comeback.
He single-handedly eliminated all the zombies in the steel plant and rescued many of his fellow workers.
Relying on the steel plant's materials and good protection, the steel plant was transformed into a good gathering place.
Afterwards, they absorbed crystals to enhance their strength, searched for supplies, rescued survivors, and their settlement gradually grew stronger.
Their gathering place was not far from Dawn City; in the area closer to the city's outskirts, the number of zombies was not large.
They learned of Dawn City's existence from a survivor who attended the Dawn City banquet.
Knowing that Dawn City has abundant resources, so much so that it can provide food to strangers for free, with banquets as lavish as those in a pre-apocalyptic five-star hotel.
Upon hearing this information, Chiju was so excited that he wanted to come and check it out immediately.
Relying on his superior skills and daring, he personally came to test the strength of Dawn City.
If Dawn City weren't strong, it wouldn't deserve so many resources.
If he is truly powerful, he won't back down; forming a friendly relationship and watching over each other wouldn't be bad either.
But looking at what was in front of them, the number of these guards alone already accounted for half of the population of their settlement.
These are just the people the enemy uses to guard the city walls; there are definitely many more who go out of the city to hunt zombies and collect supplies.
He thought to himself that it was good that they were just here to pay a visit and not to cause trouble, otherwise Dawn City could have overwhelmed them with sheer numbers.
He also knew from the survivors how powerful the city lord of Dawn City was, but Red Steed was also very confident in his own strength.
Since the end of the world began, almost no one has been able to withstand a single blow from him.
Thinking of this, Chiju's mood immediately lightened.
Chiju stepped forward, stopping about 20 meters away from Qin Yi, and answered loudly:
“That’s right, I am Chiju, the leader of the Chiyang settlement, about 20 kilometers south of Dawn City.”
"Are you the one who came to Dawn City to see the city lord?"
The Qin Yi before him possessed explosive power in Chiju's perception, yet he showed little fear.
He must be a brute who has awakened his physical strength; he's already dealt with countless others.
Even the powerful, nearly three-meter-tall, muscular zombie couldn't withstand his flames and was killed by him.
Qin Yi shook his head and took an alloy hammer from the Porsche behind him.
It slammed heavily into the ground, instantly creating a small crater in the hard cement floor.
"I am Qin Yi, the captain of the Dawn City Guard."
"Explain your purpose, otherwise I will never allow you to disturb the city lord."
Akako's lips twitched. This hammer must weigh several tons.
At that moment, he realized that the brute in front of him might be different from the ones he had dealt with before.
His confidence in defeating Qin Yi halved, and he even felt a slight urge to retreat and get away from Qin Yi.
After all, he knew how fast a superhuman with awakened physical strength could go, and he actually considered himself a mage.
However, under the watchful eyes of his subordinates, he couldn't bring himself to show weakness, and forced himself to remain calm as he replied:
"Thinking that we are all humans who have barely survived this apocalypse, we intend to stand together with Dawn City, helping and supporting each other..."
As he spoke, Chiju's momentum waned further.
He arrived full of confidence, thinking that the city lord of Dawn City was probably no different from him.
They simply had a good location and were lucky enough to gather a large number of survivors.
But once he arrived, he discovered that things weren't as simple as he had imagined.
Qin Yi did not show any dissatisfaction upon hearing what the other party said.
On the contrary, he felt somewhat relieved by his actions, as he hoped there would be less fighting and killing among the survivors.
Upon hearing Chiju's words, Qin Yi asked the other party to wait a moment.
He raised his left hand and contacted Huang Zhao, who was on a mission outside, via the terminal.
Huang Zhao had already informed Qin Yi before going out that he did not need to accompany him on this trip.
If you need anything, try contacting Chen Run using your mobile device first. If he is within range, he will reply immediately.
If you are in an emergency and cannot be contacted, you can go to the shelter to contact his main body.
The call connected instantly, and Huang Zhao asked with some confusion:
"Brother Yi, is there something you need?"
Huang Zhao was currently placing oil storage tanks around the perimeter of Dawn City, which was about ten kilometers away.
There are probably five more to go before it's done, but Chen Run's spatial abilities are already running low.
He is currently resting in a building, recovering his supernatural abilities.
Simultaneously use mental perception to search the area for any noteworthy targets.
Specialized ability users, zombies, advanced mutants in resource warehouses, and the like.
Outside the city walls, Qin Yi turned the screen on his wristwatch toward Chi Ju and his group, and said:
"They said they were from the Chiyang settlement and came to us to cooperate."
"The Red Sun Gathering Place?"
Huang Zhao felt something was familiar, and it took him a while to find a fragment in Chen Run's memory.
It was about eight years ago, which was the second year of the apocalypse in Chen Run's previous life.
At that time, the layout around Shanghai had basically been fixed.
There are three large survivor settlements in Shanghai, each with a population of nearly 10,000.
At that time, both the zombies and the vast majority of survivors had already reached level three.
There are still plenty of supplies needed by the survivors in the city, so the main theme remains the struggle between the survivors and the zombies.
Among the three major settlements, there is the Chiyang settlement.
The leader of the settlement seems to be named Red Horse?
Her real name is unknown; she has always been known by this name.
He awakened fire-type abilities, but he is different from ordinary fire-type survivors.
Although all of them awaken fire-type abilities, a thousand fire-type ability users will have a thousand different ability effects.
The degree of development of superpowers varies, and even superpowers of the same type can have some special manifestations.
The Red Steed awakens a very special type of fire element, with extremely high flame temperature and a strong explosive effect.
Because of this characteristic, his combat power is extremely strong.
Even an ordinary fireball can cause an effect comparable to a bomb explosion.
Upon hearing that the other party had actually taken the initiative to come to him, Huang Zhao immediately became quite interested.
"I can't explain it inside the watch," Huang Zhao said. "I'll be there right away."
He then manipulated Chen Run to teleport towards Dawn City.
Five teleports, and the ten-kilometer distance is covered in the blink of an eye.
Almost a minute after Huang Zhao hung up the phone with Qin Yi, Chen Run appeared in front of Qin Yi.
