Chapter 209 A Shift..., The Dawn Of A New Era

All across the Red Zone, 4 gangs were recognized as the crème de la crème of the Red Zone, they were known as the big 4 Gangs.

The Axe Gang, the Kong Gang, the Godzilla Gang, and the Exquisite Gang, these were the big 4 Gangs that were recognized as the undisputed deadliest.

Not only did these 4 gangs have armies consisting of more than a hundred thousand mystic warriors, they were more renowned for their leaders.

All the Gang leaders of these 4 gangs were rumored to be above the 5th tier of the Advanced mystic grade already. They were already qualified to upgrade their gangs to the Snake territory but they refused due to a simple reason.

Like most humans believed, it was better to be a tenant living than to be a landlord of the dead. The gang leaders used this same psychology.

In their perspective, it was better to be the Lords of the Red Zone than to upgrade to the Snake territory and start all over as the underdogs.

Just like the Snake territory and the Black Zone, despite the prevalent chaos, the Red Zone was segmented into territories using the 4 cardinal points.

In the Red Zone, there was the East Region, the West Region, the North Region, the South Region, and one other region called the Blood Market Region or the Outskirts of the Red Zone.

The Exquisite Gang was the overlord of the South Region, the Godzilla Gang was the overlord of the East Region and were fierce rivals with the Kong Gang who were the overlords of the Western Region.

As for the last and most prosperous Northern Region, their overlord was no other gang than the notorious Axe Gang led by Max Fury the Dictator.

Despite these 4 gangs being the overlords of their various regions, it was just in name since none of the other gangs submitted to them, it was still a chaotic affair though they enjoyed a lot of privileges in their various regions.

One of these privileges was the Blood Market. The Bull Gang of the Southern Region was responsible for establishing the Blood Market after seeing its potential to make a lot of money in the outskirts of the Gundam Shelter.

Once the market kicked off and the money started rolling in, the greed of bigger gangs was attracted. The big 4 butted in and imposed themselves on the market, forcefully making themselves stakeholders of the Blood Market.

Their tentacles of authority and power were all over the Red Zone.

Despite all these, they were content with their gangs. Apparently, none of the big 4 gangs ever contemplated taking the smaller gangs around them in until a daring gang in the outskirts pulled this move off.

The actions of the Berserk Gang were not hidden from the other cardinal zones. It drew a lot of ire but none of the gangs took action to fight them.

None of them wanted to be the scape goat, so they just watched.

To the shock of the whole Red Zone though, the Berserk Gang was not the only gang who thought of this radical plan to unite gangs in the Red Zone.

While the Berserk Gang did theirs in the day, attracting all the news and diverting all the attention away, the Axe Gang took advantage of it and struck in the night. In one night, this powerful gang imposed themselves.

Unlike with the Berserk Gang where Rex used subtle and intimidation tactics to destroy his opponent's mentality to increase their chances of surrendering, the same did not work for the gangs of the powerful Northern Zone.

It was a bloodbath throughout the night in the North Zone.

Max Fury the dictator himself led the army as they went on a raid throughout the North Zone. After the death of over 20,000 mystic warriors in one night where some gangs got to escape from the North Zone, Max Fury finally won.

He succeeded just a few hours after Rex succeeded and united all the remaining gangs of the North Zone under his Axe Gang through force.

Just one region was not enough for him though, Max was extremely ambitious. That same night, he took all his new soldiers in and took them to war.

Max Fury took his gang to attack the nearby East Zone. Before morning, they were able to sweep over half of this large territory already and by morning, the Godzilla Gang became the sole gang leading other smaller gangs to resist them.

In one night, multiple shocking events occurred.

In one night, so much changed, Rex was shocked as soon as he heard the news. "What?"

He finally understood why the Axe Gang had such a muted reaction to him killing their 2nd in command. He now dreaded the type of personality that Max was.

For his ambition and the greater picture, this gang leader was able to ruthlessly abandon his 2nd in command who he was close with to die just to use the outcome of the Berserk Gang's victory as distraction to achieve his goals.

Probably, Max did not know about Rex's outrageous strength or he would have sent another mystic warrior to help Haman when he asked for help.

But the incredible ability to accept his close companion's death and improvise to take advantage of the situation instead shocked Rex, Max Fury was indeed a dangerous man.

Instantly after the news, all signs of exhaustion and sleep left his eyes. Rex was intelligent enough to already notice the shift that was caused by his actions to unite a part of this shelter that was known for its chaos.

If his intuition was right, then a new era was upon the Red Zone. A new era where the top gangs wanted to rule all the other gangs, a new era of order, and the catalyst that accelerated this new era was none other than himself.

"Sh*t!" Rex cursed as he rushed back to don his war gear.

Now was the time to delegate his army to properly secure, arm, and guard his newly owned territory or he feared that he would lose it all soon.

The tired Berserk Army was aroused by the Gang leader's urgency despite their exhaustion as they were all put to work.

Rex was on a time limit.
