I am the Zombie King of the Apocalyptic World
Chapter 1027 - 1024 Slavery

Chapter 1027: Chapter 1024 Slavery

After a short while, the Peace Party Army, which had come to support from afar, rapidly gathered. Upon Ah Fu’s command, they set off toward Cepuguo City in a formidable march.

"Once inside, show no mercy to any resisters! Pay close attention to the Jiuge child soldiers, show no mercy whatsoever, and don’t hold back against anyone suspicious!"

The support soldiers of the Peace Party, together with the soldiers originally stationed there, amounted to a total of ten thousand. They looked endless, each with a stern expression, resembling emotionless killing machines.

For Ah Fu, this command was also a reluctant decision. In their view, children should be innocent, naïve angels unaware of worldly affairs, but in Jiuge, this directly subverted the soldiers’ perception of children.

During the campaign against Jiuge, many had died on the battlefield, but unexpectedly, over half of these fallen comrades were killed by the Jiuge child soldiers!

The most severe incident even led to the annihilation of an entire battalion because they pitied the children who had been starving for days, only to be wiped out by Jiuge’s mechanical forces.

"Advance!"

Following Ah Fu’s command, a multitude of Peace Party soldiers swarmed into the city.

After the Zombie King had left, Jiuge residents cheered, dancing joyfully. Soon, they began to move toward their previous living areas, but it wasn’t long before they encountered fully armed Peace Party soldiers.

One by one, residents were forced to kneel on the ground, menaced by the fierce-looking soldiers pointing weapons at their heads.

The freshly obtained white powder was violently seized by the soldiers and thrown into a lava pit created by Ah Fu’s stomping. Some residents took up arms to resist, but against the overwhelming strength, those who had just risen were mercilessly pierced with blood holes by relentless lasers.

Their faces, which had been excited moments before, quickly lost their joy, realizing that although the Zombie King had indeed left, the Peace Party, just as vile, had arrived!

They were reaping the fruits sown by the Zombie King for them!

With Arkham’s ZRZ Group and Mo Army’s Shen Luo Group annihilated, the remaining residents and the remnants of the two major groups could not contend with the Peace Party. Their resistance was, for the Peace Party, merely a minor interlude during a scene change.

What awaited them was a future devoid of drugs, illusions, and false excitement. Many couldn’t accept this; many had attached all their hopes to the white powder. Without these escapes, they appeared pallid against the harsh reality!

But what could they do?

This was no longer the era of the two major groups; starting today, Jiuge would be dominated by the Peace Party!

The Seventh Year of the Apocalypse, May.

It took ten months for the Peace Party to completely extinguish all power hubs of Jiuge. Throughout this period, many of the high-ranking officials originally from Jiuge were completely purged, and the ruling powers under the regulation of the Peace Party were all replaced with Chinese people.

Due to the special control over the Jiuge region under its jurisdiction, the Peace Party’s regulatory actions carried out exceptionally smoothly. Consequently, Jiuge naturally became a part of the United District.

In February of the Seventh Year of the Apocalypse, when the United District began its Spring Festival celebrations, it attracted a great number of survivors from other regions. "Celebration" was a word so distant to people nowadays; except for the residents of United District, survivors from other areas never thought about celebrating.

In a world filled with dangers, people simply didn’t have the mood to celebrate any so-called holidays.

As the fame of the United District in China grew, the name Li Henian gradually came into people’s sight, and it was also known that, in the South China region, there existed a powerful figure named Li Henian, reputed to have extraordinary connections and influence.

The holding of the Spring Festival was clear evidence of the prosperity of the sanctuary zones under its management and also proved the abundance of resources in the United District. Therefore, on the eve of the Spring Festival, the population of the United District surged explosively. Powerhouses from various places began entering the United District to develop their lives there. In just half a month, the United District rose to become the third most populous area in China.

That same month, due to the Peace Party’s drug ban in Jiuge, the economic situation plummeted like a free fall because, during the two major groups’ era, the presence of addictive drugs had sustained the economy of Jiuge.

But once the Peace Party’s drug ban was in place, without the economic impact of drugs, Jiuge collapsed instantly. Did people ever consider uniting to resist together, to force the Peace Party to compromise? But the toughness and ruthlessness of the Peace Party exceeded everyone’s imagination.

With no ideal compromises to be made, what met them was a very sharp butcher’s knife!

In the end, as more people died, they became numb, and the thought of making the Peace Party compromise vanished because it was utterly useless! Using drugs was indeed a good method to escape reality, but in fleeing, it also eroded people’s willpower. The Peace Party did not need such things, because drugs served no purpose in the apocalypse aside from providing economic support.

People escaping from reality were even less needed by the Peace Party!

Thus, to drive the economy on Jiuge’s side, Tang Ye made a move similar to what Li Songhua did, aiming to make those survivors who didn’t want to go out, who were too lazy to go out, leave and search for resources in exchange for Yajin.

During the two major groups’ era, Arkham and Mo Army didn’t care about the lives of Jiuge residents. The economy was driven entirely by the drugs, which were highly addictive; the addicts’ cravings for drugs could even surpass a zombie’s craving for flesh.

Even if the two major groups didn’t force them, addicts, in order to get drugs, would risk their lives to go out and exchange resources for drugs and Yajin. But with the drug ban in place, without drugs, what was the point for the addicts to risk their lives outside just to get some food? Such a life had no meaning at all.

It was like smokers being forced to quit smoking without any mental preparation; it was extremely difficult.

Anyway, staying within the safe zone, according to the Peace Party’s control system, they would periodically distribute food to those who couldn’t survive anymore. By relying on this food, they could just scrape by for a lifetime.

Thus, Tang Ye, along with the Peace Party’s senior officials, devised an Eliminator Program. For the residents of Jiuge, they would not distribute food regularly; if they wanted to live, they would have to go outside to hunt evolutionary zombies, find resources, and exchange them for Yajin to survive.

Of course, to maintain balance, the Yajin that could be exchanged with the Evolution Crystal and Evolution Core held by Jiuge residents was twenty percent more than what could be obtained in the United District.

However, the Eliminator Program developed by the Peace Party for Jiuge only resulted in more people starving to death. Only a small portion of the population was willing to stand up again and start fighting for a future life.
