Chapter 414: Chapter 259: Reunion

In a nameless village

A team of soldiers wielding semi-automatic rifles wildly fired away.

They relied on the village houses as cover, executing crossfire with impeccable teamwork.

Two Heart-Eating Ghosts attempted to ambush from behind, moving swiftly, but unexpectedly stepped into traps set by the soldiers, getting hoisted up by ropes.

Before they could break free, two soldiers drew their Crystal Energy Swords and cleanly decapitated them.

Their flawless movements, seamless coordination, and precise techniques were the marks of seasoned veterans.

They were constantly protecting a particular house.

Wang Hao speculated that this must be some kind of rescue team.

Undoubtedly, there were some important figures inside the house.

These men fought impressively, and at this rate, they would soon eliminate this small group of monsters.

Unexpectedly, an event occurred.

A powerful Heart-Eating Ghost broke through the defenses, charging at someone dressed as the captain.

This Heart-Eating Ghost was quite formidable, already on the brink of mutation.

Its claws gleamed coldly in the moonlight, aimed directly at the captain’s heart.

The captain swung his Crystal Energy Sword to block, but it turned out to be a feint, as the ghost suddenly halted, slipping around to strike at the captain’s back with its sharp claws.

The captain’s eyes widened, but it was too late to react.

“Captain!”

His team members wanted to help, but they were also too late.

“Bang!”

In a split second, a gunshot rang out.

An energy bullet shot at the Ghoul from the left.

The Ghoul’s head exploded, the powerful impact sending its body flying.

“It’s a Crystal Energy Gun.”

A team member exclaimed in surprise.

Unlike the Crystal Energy Sword, the Crystal Energy Gun was extremely rare and precious.

Not everyone was equipped with one.

“Continue fighting!”

The captain shouted sternly.

The team snapped back into action, realizing the monsters had not been completely cleared out.

“Bang, bang, bang.”

Three more gunshots were heard, taking down the remaining three Heart-Eating Ghosts.

This relieved the rescue team of a huge problem.

Without the Level 2 monsters, those Level 1 monsters were nothing more than trash in their eyes.

The Ghouls posed some challenge, yet if they were mere zombies, they could easily be dealt with using cold weapons such as daggers without guns.

Half an hour later, the battle ended.

People began to clean the battlefield.

“Whoever assisted us, would you kindly show yourself?”

The captain clasped his hands towards the air.

Wang Hao, carrying a travel bag, emerged from the side of the wall.

“Not anyone important, just a refugee on the run.”

Wang Hao said with a smile as he approached.

“A refugee? Where did you come from?”

The captain observed Wang Hao’s handsome, clean face, his vigilance slightly abating.

Appearance is justice.

Good-looking individuals naturally arouse goodwill, making others instinctively think they aren’t bad people.

Conversely, those with unattractive appearances, no matter how kind-hearted, tend to initially be perceived as bad by others.

“I fled from Su Jing, our private Settlement Camp was overrun by a wave of zombies, so I headed this way.”

Wang Hao said with a feigned sigh,

“Su Jing has too many people, the zombie swarm is terrifying, but it’s better here, with wide-open spaces and abundant resources.”

“Haha, indeed it is.”

The captain laughed heartily, walking towards Wang Hao,

“What do you say, brother? Want to join our gathering place? With your skills, you’ll surely be put to good use.”

Traveling from Su Jing to S City is no easy feat!

Wang Hao’s journey here showcased his capabilities.

His exquisite marksmanship indicated he was quite formidable.

The gathering place was currently in dire need of people; bringing Wang Hao back could earn a valuable reward.

“That would be great, I’ve been looking for a gathering place along the way, but I haven’t seen anyone.

If I hadn’t heard your gunfire, I wouldn’t know how long I’d be wandering.”

Wang Hao seemed genuinely happy, as if he had found his tribe.

“Haha, nice to meet you, I’m Wu Xiang.”

Wu Xiang extended his hand to Wang Hao.

“Wang Hao!”

Wang Hao extended his hand and shook it,

“I also have a younger sister; I’ll go get her.”

“Okay! We also need to clean up the battlefield; we’ll set off again in the daylight.”

Wu Xiang nodded in agreement.

He was even more astonished internally.

Traversing here alone was impressive, but bringing someone with him?

That was even harder!

When Wang Hao returned with Xiaoyueyue, Wu Xiang’s eyes widened.

Such a small child?

Wu Xiang could not comprehend how they had managed the journey.

His estimation of Wang Hao’s capabilities grew even higher.

This was definitely a skilled individual!

“It’s nothing, we didn’t encounter many monsters; with just the two of us, we weren’t as conspicuous.”

Wang Hao seemed to read Wu Xiang’s thoughts, explaining with a smile.

“It’s cold outside, let’s talk indoors.”

Wu Xiang invited the two inside.

A fire burned inside the house.

Inside were not only rescue team members but also civilians.

There were elderly people, young folks, and even children.

A pot was simmering on the fire, boiling water bubbling away inside.

Xiaoyueyue lay drowsily in Wang Hao’s arms.

It was already past midnight; she was half-asleep.

Wang Hao initially intended to leave her in the motorhome.

However, he wasn’t sure how long he’d be gone.

Leaving Xiaoyueyue in the care of a pervert and a member of the Demon Race, he felt uneasy.
