Chapter 347: Followers of the Snow God

She tapped the enter key and moved on to information about the next faction.

“Followers of the Snow God, a religious organization formed after the apocalypse.”

“The group evolved from a small sect known as Shenli Church in Tianhai City.”

“Its leader, Yuan Kongye, is a mixed-blood of Hua and Japan, who awakened superhuman abilities after the apocalypse. It’s preliminarily believed her ability is called Blessing, which can help other Superhumans awaken abilities without any cost.”

A sudden “boom” echoed in Zhang Yi’s mind!

Memories from the past suddenly surfaced.

Back then, Uncle You had mentioned the existence of the Followers of the Snow God to him.

Uncle You’s face also grew serious; he had personally encountered members of this group.

Moreover, they had even witnessed a live example of an awakened blessing—Li Jian!

“Is there really an ability this powerful in the world?”

Liang Yue\'s face showed clear surprise.

She remembered her own near-death experience when she first grasped her superhuman ability.

Everyone else in the room had also awakened their abilities only on the verge of death.

But this person named Yuan Kongye could actually awaken others’ abilities at will.

Just with that, she could amass countless powerful Superhumans as followers.

Zhang Yi\'s expression became serious.

If that’s the case, then the strength of the Followers of the Snow God is terrifying.

Moreover, as a religious group offering the chance to awaken abilities, it’s bound to attract many Superhumans to its side.

In other words, the Followers of the Snow God have infinite potential for growth!

Everyone recognized the gravity of the situation, their expressions turning somber.

Yang Xinxin continued reading aloud:

“After the apocalypse, Shenli Church was renamed the Followers of the Snow God, honoring Yuan Kongye as their leader. She claims to be the earthly form of the Snow God and declares that this snowstorm is a cleansing from the Snow God, and only devout followers of the group will be spared.”

“Their influence is concentrated in the Tianfeng and Changlan Districts, with a large, though unspecified, number of Superhumans under their command.”

“They’re marked as particularly troublesome enemies in West Hill Base’s intelligence reports.”

Zhang Yi crossed his hands, supporting his chin, and said seriously, “Tianfeng and Changlan are the most densely populated areas in Tianhai City.”

“Preaching there could quickly expand their reach, especially in the apocalypse when religion spreads fast—people are desperate for spiritual support.”

“But aside from the population, those areas lack core resources. Judging by that, it’s also where the most deaths happen.”

Puzzled, Zhang Yi asked, “How are they even surviving?”

Food and heating are essential for staying alive.

The Shelter has years of stored supplies, and Zhang Yi had planned for this long ago.

What’s their plan?

Yang Xinxin shook her head. “This is all the information we have. Every faction has its secrets.”

“Maybe they’re eating meat!”

Zhang Yi nodded, chuckling, “Oh, right. How could I forget such a crucial food source?”

Having lived a rather comfortable life, he occasionally lost touch with the harsh realities others face.

“These foreign cults always have ways to brainwash their followers, like claiming the meat is some holy sacrament or something!”

Zhang Yi’s joke sent chills through everyone.

“Wow, that joke was so dark!”

“What a morbid sense of humor!”

The tense atmosphere in the room relaxed a little.

Zhang Yi thought back to the two groups they encountered outside West Hill Base.

One was from Chaoyu Base, and the other, the ones without uniforms, were probably the Followers of the Snow God.

But at the time, they hadn’t shown any hostility toward Zhang Yi.

So, Zhang Yi didn’t harbor any negative feelings towards them either.

Live and let live.

As long as they didn’t disturb his peaceful life, he had no issues with what they did.

With that, Yang Xinxin wrapped up the briefing on the major factions in Tianhai City.

Although information was sparse and piecemeal, it gave everyone a basic understanding of Tianhai City’s situation.

Zhang Yi, seated on the couch, glanced at everyone lost in thought and said, “That’s the gist of it. Anyone have thoughts to share?”

The group exchanged glances, each with their own opinions to express.

Zhang Yi turned to Uncle You, saying, “Uncle You, you’re the oldest here. Why don’t you go first?”

Uncle You didn’t hold back, crossing his arms thoughtfully as he replied, “No matter how many factions there are in Tianhai City, it’s definitely wise to be prepared for conflict!”

“The most urgent task now is building our defenses!”

“We’ve brought a lot of weapons from West Hill Base; not using them would be a waste, right?”

Zhang Yi nodded. They needed to speed up fortifying the base—there was no telling when these factions might clash with them.

After all, Zhang Yi had already taken down some people from Chaoyu Base, and even a Superhuman!

If they discovered the truth, a conflict would be inevitable.

After Uncle You spoke, Fatty Xu, sitting beside him, chimed in with a worried tone, “I think the situation looks grim!”

The chubby pessimist immediately injected some negative energy into the discussion.

“We encountered two factions outside West Hill Base. If they find out the base was destroyed, they might come to take over the territory.”

“That could turn the surrounding area into a battlefield. If we get caught in the crossfire, we’ll be in serious trouble.”

Zhang Yi looked at him and asked, “Do you have any good suggestions?”

Fatty Xu furrowed his brows, deep in thought, though his pudgy face looked a bit forced with such a serious expression.

“I think we should just barricade ourselves in! Avoid going out as much as possible.”

Zhang Yi nodded; if nothing else, Fatty Xu had an unmatched sense for survival, aligning perfectly with his own thoughts.

Lu Keran chimed in, “The problem is, even if we keep to ourselves, they might still come after us!”

Zhang Yi rested his chin on his hand. “Then we still need to build up our defenses and be thoroughly prepared. We can’t control what others do, can we?”

“True enough.”

Lu Keran hesitated, her expression a bit troubled as if unsure how to proceed.

Noticing this, Zhang Yi smiled and said, “Just say what’s on your mind. We’re here to brainstorm—sharing your ideas might spark something for all of us.”

Encouraged, Lu Keran finally spoke, “Actually, I was wondering if we should make another trip out to gather more materials to repair the Shelter?”
