Chapter 279: Chapter 156: Concealment and Breaking the Deadlock, Giant Enterprise Alliance, King’s Alliance

"Thank you for the guidance, I’ve learned a lot!"

Next, Lin Feng inquired about the composition of the wasteland factions, aside from the Holy Spring Sect and other large forces.

Even though Zong Shiyue had been trapped in the Relic Forbidden Area for a thousand years, during these days, the Evolvers he had assimilated were in the thousands, if not tens of thousands.

On average, tens of people each year, including mid and high-level members of large factions, as well as many Guild Hunters.

By reading their memories, Zong Shiyue could keep abreast of the external situation changes in real-time.

Through his narrative, Lin Feng gained a rough understanding of the current wasteland situation:

The Taishan Ruins fall under the flight path of the Holy Spring Sect, so nearby, there are only the Holy Spring Sect and the Hunting Wilderness Guild, along with some nomadic Wanrdering Forces.

The territory ruled by the Holy Spring Sect extends between 30 to 40 degrees north latitude. Considering the current expanded land surface, it’s a vast theocracy that stretches 40,000 kilometers from east to west and spans nearly 1,500 kilometers north to south.

As Lin Feng mentioned, the Holy City ahead is actually not just one city; the migrating team also includes the only largest Holy Spring City, which is the sacred site where the Master of the Holy Spring and the Undying Saint are worshiped.

All Tier Three Bishops must be birthed through it.

In addition, to the north of the church, between 40 to 50 degrees north latitude, there exists a powerful force called the Giant Enterprise Alliance.

This is also the main enemy of the Holy Spring Sect. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Their allegiance is to a great being revered as the Final Producer.

Zong Shiyue is quite familiar with this because the Giant Enterprise Alliance was born during the Old Earth Era.

It is essentially a joint company formed by the union of several multinational conglomerates.

Through exceptionally high efficiency, they completed the research of Life Source Material and the development of the Evolution Agent, becoming the strongest Evolver force at the time and quickly controlling the situation in the Western regions.

Later, they also became a significant power in the Evolution Alliance, holding more than thirty positions in the top hundred rankings, and they constructed more than half of the planet engines.

The Giant Enterprise Alliance has survived to this day, becoming the strongest force in the Northern Hemisphere, consistently overshadowing the Holy Spring Sect.

Below the territory of the Holy Spring Sect, there is another formidable force called the King’s Alliance.

Its domain is between 20 to 30 degrees north latitude.

When Lin Feng heard the name of this force, the corners of his mouth twitched. He wanted to laugh but held back.

The King’s Alliance, true to its name, is a force composed of Tier Three Kings, once boasting hundreds of Kings at its peak.

The entire alliance is made up of five Late Tier Three Celestial Kings and twenty Mid-stage Kings.

Though there are no beings beyond Tier Three, no divine protection, they are exceptionally powerful.

United in warmth, even the Holy Spring Sect and the Giant Enterprise Alliance are helpless against them.

As for further south, below 20 degrees north latitude, it belongs to the Barbaric Lands, with almost no water, and has never formed any significant power worth mentioning.

Between 10 degrees north latitude to the Equator, and from the Equator down to 10 degrees south latitude, it’s considered an Equatorial Forbidden Area, where life activities are scarce due to the proximity to the Scorching Sun.

As for the force situation in the Southern Hemisphere, even Zong Shiyue knows little, estimated to be heard only by some veteran Tier Three Kings.

Lin Feng recalled that Father Su An mentioned that the church had a Bishop who once went to the Equator, seeking planet engine relics, but unfortunately, it ended in vain.

Tier Three Kings can withstand the direct rays of the Scorching Sun from afar and endure a journey of five to six thousand kilometers, crossing Barbaric Lands and Equatorial Forbidden Areas to reach the Southern Hemisphere.

So likely the church or the King’s Alliance should understand the power structure of the Southern Hemisphere.

Both sides are isolated by the Equatorial Forbidden Area without much impact.

And when Lin Feng asked about the Giant Enterprise Alliance going further up, beyond 50 degrees north latitude...

Zong Shiyue shook his head:

"That place is over 4,000 kilometers away from here, and no explorers are understanding of that area have passed through yet; all that’s known is that above the Giant Enterprise Alliance, there’s a large power..."

"Named the Eternal Night Empire."

"Going further north on the route to less than twenty thousand kilometers, while the light intensity decreases, gaining less energy, plus the migration path becomes shorter, meaning more scarce resources along the way, making it hard for any major force to form, even if there is one, the population count wouldn’t be much."

Lin Feng nodded.

In this view, only the Holy Spring Sect and the Giant Enterprise Alliance occupy the best lands, where the balance of sunlight and migration distance can sustain tens of millions of people.

In the entire Northern Hemisphere, there exist three Gods implementing the Shepherd’s Method, namely the Master of the Holy Spring, the Final Producer, and the ruler of the Eternal Night Empire.

"If staying in the theocracy doesn’t work, how about going to the King’s Alliance?"

Lin Feng immediately asked, considering the south is a broad and scattered alliance, with no divine oppression or obstruction.

Zong Shiyue laughed slyly a couple of times:

"Broad and scattered means no order; every Royal City is under the control of dictators, only with royal clans and family powers. Do you think there’s a chance and resources for your evolution?"

"The forces in the King’s Alliance are those driven away by the Holy Spring Sect and the Giant Enterprise Alliance or unwilling to submit and bow, and had to flee there."

"There, whoever has the bigger fist speaks, akin to a more advanced Wandering Force Alliance, you could consider it a conglomerate of feudalism and slavery."

"Heh, without order restraint, what do you think it means for outsiders and ordinary Evolvers being there?"

"Many Wandering Forces have their shadows behind them, responsible for plundering Deserters to serve as slaves!"

Hearing Zong Shiyue’s sly laughter, Lin Feng shuddered, already imagining hundreds of Purgatory Demon Kingdoms.

The two conversed for quite a while until two hours later, the sound of two gunshots rang out inside the train station, followed by the sound of frantic running.

Lin Feng hurriedly got up and stepped forward, and Zong Shiyue on the side also gave accurate information:

"Don’t worry, they’ve already found the target, just startled the dormant Mutant Beast on their way out."

"It’s not an issue, wait for a moment, just go over to intimidate, unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t shoot."

"Firing near the tunnel could wake more Mutant Beasts and Tier Two Corpse Wolves, making it harder to handle."

Lin Feng nodded, quickly reaching the entrance of the train station, standing outside to receive the hurriedly running crowd.

Behind them, a herd of four-legged running long-haired mutant creatures was in pursuit.

Chen Shanshan, wearing Power Armor, used the Demon-Extinguishing Holy Flame at her waist to drive back the beast hordes, buying time for everyone to collect Source Material and escape.

She also, with the help of Power Armor, took charge of the rear, dealing with the Mutant Beasts that charged up to everyone.

A sharp Titanium Gun pierced straight through a Mutant Beast’s spine and skull, sweeping it aside, and repelling several more.

Once six people successfully evacuated, Lin Feng raised the dark muzzle, releasing his own aura to intimidate the mutant beast horde attacking from the station.

These Mid-Tier One Mutant Beasts and Werewolves were subdued by Lin Feng’s Tier Two Aura, coupled with Zheng Yan Ying sprinkling a large amount of Holy Spring Water, successfully halting these monsters from pursuing.

The task was already completed, there was no need to save resources anymore.

Everyone breathed a significant sigh of relief and returned to the surface.

Lin Feng signaled to Zong Shiyue to stay calm and wait till the Church Squad was sent off; he would return to meet with the Tier Two Corpse Wolves in the Wolf King’s Tomb.

Regarding the bounty and gain from the relic, the Life Source Material from the Tier Two Wasteland Wolf there.

Upon returning to the surface, the Salvation Army had cleared most of the cave, starting to move out the majority of it, as Bai Ye called out to the powerful, enigmatic man:

"You’ve found the Tier Two Desert Wolf Source Material, planning to go down again?"
