Chapter 175: Chapter 171: Movement Underground

“Meow!”

Catwoman suddenly let out a meow, “I also heard some faint noises.”

She is a cat.

Cats have very keen hearing.

Wang Hao closed his eyes and used his spiritual power to enhance his hearing.

He tilted his ear and listened carefully.

Filtering out the low growls of the monsters, he indeed heard some faint noises.

At the same time, he also sensed a trace of spiritual power fluctuations.

Is there a treasure in this mountain?

“Then let’s wait.”

Liu Zhiquan looked very nonchalant.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do!

He sat down, put down his backpack, took out some food and water, and started eating and drinking.

The long journey had exhausted him.

He needed to replenish his strength quickly to face the upcoming battle.

Wang Hao also took out some jerky, shared some with Xiaoyueyue, and started eating and drinking.

Although his consumption wasn’t as large as Liu Zhiquan’s, it wasn’t small either. Being in a dangerous place, it’s essential to keep his strength at its peak.

While eating and drinking, his eyes glanced at Tang Rui and the others, and he said with a smile:

“Monsters are everywhere here. When fortune arrives later, why don’t we cooperate?”

This was addressed to Yang Tian and Zhao Meng, as well as to Catwoman.

Although his voice was very low, with their hearing, they could easily hear it.

“Meow!”

Catwoman meowed and nodded:

“You guys can charge your way up here, so your strength is decent. I can cooperate with you to a certain extent.”

Tang Rui looked at Yang Tian, then muttered a few words with him.

Yang Tian nodded and laughed, “Younger brother Wang, we were allies in the first place, naturally we should cooperate.

When we gain something, you take it first, and I’ll cover the rear.”

I don’t believe you for a second.

Wang Hao rolled his eyes inwardly.

Cover the rear?

You damn well want to stab me in the back, don’t you?

Of course, although he thought this in his heart, he had a smile on his face.

He nodded to the two and continued eating and drinking while watching the monsters below.

He didn’t intend to go to that best vantage point now.

This Yang Tian guy surely had some suspicions about him.

After all, his initial destination was Purple Gold Mountain, and at that time, the light beam hadn’t appeared yet.

Putting himself in Yang Tian’s shoes, even if it seemed impossible, he would be on guard.

If he went there now, it would immediately raise Yang Tian’s suspicion.

At that time, some unexpected incidents might happen.

After all, they had two people on their side.

And although he had Liu Zhiquan on his side, they were merely in a simple cooperative relationship.

Moreover, it was limited to climbing the mountain together.

When fortune arrives, Liu Zhiquan might rush to seize it rather than help him.

“Meow~”

Catwoman meowed, took a big leap, and jumped onto the roof where Wang Hao and his companions were.

“Can I have some of your fish snacks?”

She eyed the bag of spicy fish snacks in Wang Hao’s hand intently.

Cats love fish.

After acquiring superpower abilities, Catwoman was influenced to some extent.

However, in this apocalypse, as a superpower user, obtaining some food wasn’t a problem for her.

But finding fish was somewhat difficult.

After that round of the ice-sealed world, many fish had frozen to death.

The remaining ones were mostly polluted and mutated, making them inedible!

She hadn’t eaten a single fish until now.

So when she saw the fish snacks in Wang Hao’s hand, she couldn’t hold back.

“Take it.”

Wang Hao generously tossed the bag of fish snacks over.

Catwoman was overjoyed, crouching there and started eating.

Meowing softly from time to time, she sounded quite endearing.

“Sister Cat, have this too.”

Xiaoyueyue walked over with a sweet and innocent smile, taking out a packet of spicy fish fillet.

Instantly, Catwoman was charmed.

She took the fish fillet from Xiaoyueyue’s hand and patted her on the head:

“Such a good little one, sister will give you something nice too.”

Saying that, she took something out of her backpack.

Xiaoyueyue wasn’t too interested initially.

After all, her storage space was filled with a huge amount of food.

However, when she saw what was in Catwoman’s hand, she jumped up in surprise.

“It’s a big mango!”

Xiaoyueyue hugged the mango, hopping around joyfully.

It was currently the off-season; previous fruits had mostly rotted, and new ones hadn’t been grown yet.

Getting fresh fruit was extremely hard.

Who knows where Catwoman got this fresh mango?

Most women, when they see children, become maternal instincts.

With Xiaoyueyue being so sweet and cute, she quickly got familiar with Catwoman.

Her words were sugary, calling sister without stopping.

Catwoman adored her, even showing a few high-difficulty moves for her.

Wang Hao watched all this but didn’t intervene.

This Catwoman was a superpower user, with a cat-type ability, which was quite good too.

In a one-on-one fight, Yang Tian and Tang Rui might not be able to handle her.

Especially Yang Tian; in front of a cat, a snake is just a snack.

Being in danger, unexpected situations could arise.

When that time comes, perhaps this Catwoman could save Xiaoyueyue’s life.

Having read a lot of post-apocalyptic novels, he saw many people dying from small mistakes and oversights.

If someone could lend a hand at such moments, it could easily save a life.

Time ticked by second by second.

Dusk gradually arrived.

Nighttime is very dangerous.

The monsters below would become active.

Plus, night vision obstruction is also unfavorable for Wang Hao and the others.

Tang Rui and Yang Tian came over to Wang Hao’s place as well.

Everyone took a spot and started setting up defenses.

Among these monsters, there weren’t just zombies and ghouls.

Many Heart-Eating Ghosts were hiding too.

If they wanted to climb up, it would be a piece of cake.

The reason they hadn’t attacked yet was that Heart-Eating Ghosts are highly intelligent; they knew Wang Hao and his group were tough to deal with, strong in power.

However, not attacking now doesn’t mean they won’t attack ever.

They were waiting for an opportunity.

Once the opportunity presented itself, they would rush at them without hesitation.

And that opportunity might just be the night.

When night falls, there will surely be a bloody battle.

Wang Hao chatted briefly with Yang Tian, casually asking about Li Qian.

Li Qian was currently with Wang Han.

Tang Rui wasn’t a bad person; although Wang Han had gone with Yang Tian and been fooled by earlier cannon fodder.

He didn’t mind Wang Han.

He was also sleeping with her, and Li Qian joined in too.

Wang Hao was quite shocked to hear this.

He didn’t expect Tang Rui, such a sunny guy, to be so fancy in his pursuits.

Also, he marveled at these young people’s ways of thinking.

Indeed, people like Tang Rui live very clearly and freely.

Wang Hao admitted he couldn’t compare.

However, he didn’t want to change either; he couldn’t accept anything resembling a green hat.

Yang Tian hadn’t touched Li Qian; it seemed he wanted Li Qian to become Tang Rui’s girlfriend.

Whenever he was free, he’d mess around with Wang Han, Tang Rui didn’t mind.

The four were quite harmonious together.

As for Zhao Hu and Zhao Meng, Wang Hao didn’t ask, and Yang Tian didn’t mention them.

Everyone was very tacit; everything went unsaid.

Watching the smug Yang Tian, Wang Hao couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.

This Yang Tian had dealt with Zhao Hu, still dreaming of ruling the steel plant alone.

Yet he didn’t know right from the start; he was already Wang Hao’s prey.

He wouldn’t be returning to the steel plant.
