Lin Xian and Zhou Jin’s special forces team parked in a relatively secluded alley far away, then went to a high-rise building to observe. Around several key surveillance points, Zhou Jin arranged for the team mbers to spread out and maintain contact. Beside him at the ti were three team mbers: a nimble Superpower Female Scout nad Xiao Yan, a Heavy Machine Gunner clad in Iron Hunter Power Armor nad Tong Silei, and a stern Information Expert with glasses nad Li Su.
"It really is the Silver Star." Lin Xian took out binoculars and looked at the silver train head, unable to help but say, "They actually used an All-Terrain System to tow a segnt of the Eternal Power Core Locomotive here, what an arrangent they’ve set up."
"Quite a few large caravans have also co along." Jiang Yun glanced over the square filled with a sea of people, as well as the various gigantic doomsday vehicles on the surrounding streets, and said
"Common Alliance, Steel Barrier, Wind Speaker, All-tal Frenzy, Grey Falcon, even the Dawn Watcher Alliance is here."
"You recognize quite a few people." Zhou Jin was surprised to see Jiang Yun recognize several team mbers at a glance and said, "You must not be new in Dawn City."
"Not exactly, I’ve been around for a while. They are familiar faces, and I’ve dealt with them before." Jiang Yun replied.
Ning Jing stepped forward, looking surprised: "Are these teams here to participate in the recruitnt as well?"
Jiang Yun shook his head: "Probably not. These caravans or alliances are all entities of ten thousand people. Their system configurations are very adequate. The Dawn Watcher Alliance has 120,000 people. I heard they might rge with Han Jun’s Arctic Wind Alliance in the north, a power that even the Phoenix Society and the Federation cannot underestimate."
"The other caravans have no fewer than 20,000 people. The area we just visited in the Dali Travel Association is partly controlled by the Grey Falcon caravan."
"Han Jun?" Lin Xian rembered: "I know this person."
Jiang Yun smiled and said, "There’s another person you definitely know, Shen Yao of the Beifeng Alliance. He allied with Han Jun after Xilan City, and since the second team of Arctic Wind Alliance rged in Jin River, their numbers have exceeded 200,000. They are now one of the officially supported major alliances of the Phoenix Society."
"Wow, you sure have your ear to the ground." KIKI chid in at this mont.
"In the human crisis, chaos reigns everywhere. The more friends, the more information, the better the chances of survival." Jiang Yun looked at Lin Xian, introducing him.
"The Dawn Watcher Alliance, 120,000 people, their leader shares your surna, Lin Qingyu. He’s a formidable person with a core team of over 20 experts and strategists. The entire alliance is managed with a military structure, with very large logistics and resource teams. They achieve partial resource recycling through road, rail, flight, and even planting and generation convoys. Of course, the water resource issue remains unsolvable, but they allocate differently leveled infected water using the Spirit Vibration Value of Superpower Users to control the mutation rate well. Now many caravans are using this model, originally devised by Lin Qingyu, who was supposedly an environntalist."
Lin Xian pondered upon hearing this: "You an, those with stronger superpowers drink the lower purified water, while the weaker ones in the caravan drink the highly purified water processed by the Superpower Users?"
"That’s the idea."
"Risk hedging, quite smart." Monica’s eyes lit up, arms crossed, and said: "But this balance also has significant drawbacks."
"Of course, but it is indeed the best solution available." Qian Deli acknowledged.
Jiang Yun continued pointing southeast of the square, where a row of heavy base trucks was parked, with many survivors swarming there in line: "Common Alliance, official numbers say 80,000, but it’s actually much more. The alliance leader Lei Zhen was previously imprisoned, just a truck driver. The alliance has 40% elderly, children, and won, many belonging to families. Despite this, the alliance has terrifying combat strength, with experts aplenty on the front lines. In battles, everyone fights fearlessly, and their logistics are solid. Internally, they emphasize unity and have a good reputation among many survivors, but joining is not easy."
"You need to et at least one of the requirents: resources, combat strength, or logistics." Lin Xian said.
Jiang Yun nodded noncommittally and continued, "The Wind Talker Team, led by Luo Heng, a reconnaissance soldier with the sa Wind Elent superpower as . I’ve dealt with him before. This person is calm and decisive, and although his team is not large, with just over 9,000 people, they all travel light, with hardly any large vehicles. Their mobility and marching speed are very fast. The superpower users and single-unit combat strength are strong, so despite their small numbers, their survival rate in Dawn City’s caravans is very high."
"9,000 people is considered not many." Lin Xian chuckled silently. His Infinity, after refurbishing, had fewer than two hundred people, and even including the Joint Train, they barely exceeded 5,000. Of course, combining with Jian Xuwei and Jiang Yun’s Windwalker Alliance, their team of over 60,000 is quite large.
"It’s different. The small caravans here quickly rge into larger ones. To obtain resources, you need Blood Essence. To get Blood Essence, you have to encircle the Abnormal Bodies. Without a large battle team and firepower, it can’t be done, and you also have to develop production, planting, and scavenging. All these require people." Jiang Yun said, "So, caravans with hundreds or thousands of people are considered small here, and most are forced to band together for survival because they can’t join the big caravans."
