Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

"It feels like a dream..."

On the back of the Golden Eagle, Su Jie, her face somewhat frozen stiff, murmured to herself.

Not just her, but several others felt similarly and, despite the bitterly cold wind, were unwilling to close their eyes.

"If you're cold, you can lower your heads or sit back to back."

Wang Tao spoke up.

In this extreme weather, plus the high-speed flight of the Golden Eagle, ordinary people wouldn't be able to withstand the low temperatures. Fortunately, there were many of them, and everyone huddled together, with ability users on the outer edge blocking the wind, so there wasn't a big problem. It wouldn't take much time to arrive anyway.

"No, I want to watch this journey with my own eyes..."

Su Jie shook her head.

To them, this road represented hope; she wanted to witness the process of over a thousand people from Ocean Base moving from imminent destruction to rebirth.

Wang Tao shrugged his shoulders. He thought for a moment, then used the Splitting Cloak's splitting ability to shield them from some of the cold wind.

The journey back was generally smooth. They encountered a few flying zombies, which Wang Tao dispatched with two high-temperature rays. However, considering they were traveling with many ordinary people, Wang Tao didn't let the Golden Eagle fly too fast.

About two hours later, a giant city emerged from the snowy plains.

"We've arrived, that's Changhe Base."

Wang Tao's voice rose amongst the people.

Due to the large size of the Golden Eagle, many couldn't see Changhe Base from its back. Wang Tao, considering the rare opportunity for these people to observe from the sky, specifically ordered the Golden Eagle to fly lower so they could have a chance to see Changhe Base up close.

When everyone saw the tall and towering city walls, they were all struck silent with awe.

In the apocalypse... there really was such a Survivor Base!

"God..."

Even though Su Jie had already believed in Wang Tao, when she saw Changhe Base for the first time, she was still shocked beyond words.

At the same time, she was also filled with expectations for their future!

Tears fell from Su Jie's eyes and quickly froze on her face, but her smile was radiant. The survivors from Ocean Base had thought that they were on the path to extinction, but unexpectedly, they had truly found rebirth!

Wang Tao's radio had previously broken, but he used a Perception Ring to contact Ding Yuqin, and asked her to inform Gu Yun. Now, City Hall had already prepared to welcome the newcomers.

"Prepare for landing, and once we do, please disembark in an orderly fashion."

Wang Tao reminded them, and then the Golden Eagle began its descent towards City Hall plaza.

By this time, the area around City Hall plaza was already filled with people. In addition to City Hall staff, police maintaining order, and the City Defense Army, there were ability users from major powers and many ordinary people.

For those from Ocean Base like Su Jie, this was an event that could change their fates. For Changhe Base as well, this was also a significant event.

Changhe Base hadn't had an influx of new blood for a long time, especially after the sudden appearance of life-threatening snowstorm, many had felt that perhaps the rest of humanity had perished, and that they, Changhe Base, might be the last Survivor Base in the world.

This was a pessimistic thought, and while it might not be a problem in the short term, it could definitely affect people's mentalities in the long run.

But now, with Wang Tao bringing back the survivors from Ocean Base, even if it were only a thousand people, compared to the base's population of five hundred thousand, this knowledge that there were still human survivor bases out there, still persevering through the apocalypse, was invaluable! Human life energy was more tenacious than imagined!

Whooosh—

The Golden Eagle flapped its wings, slowly landing on the plaza of City Hall.

Clap Clap Clap!

"I am Gu Yun, the Mayor of Changhe Base. Welcome to all of you to Changhe Base! You've all come a long way, and we've prepared cotton clothes, hot water, food, and housing for you. However, before that, we need everyone to queue up for a health check and to receive identity tags..."

Gu Yun's voice rang out loud, accompanied by vigorous applause.

Many survivors were still in a state of incredulous shock, but seeing so many survivors around them clapping, and seeing many prepared with cotton clothes and hot porridge, they could no longer hold back, and tears instantly blurred their vision.

It was Su Jie who loudly reminded them, and then they began to disembark in an orderly manner.

Wang Tao jumped down from the Golden Eagle with Su Jie and approached Gu Yun and the others.

"This is one of the in-charges from Ocean Base—Su Jie. You two can talk amongst yourselves. I'll go back and bring the other group."

By now, it was already getting dark, but that bore no impact on Wang Tao.

"Thank you for your hard work!"

Gu Yun gave Wang Tao a firm handshake, and then turned to talk with Su Jie.

"There were no dangers on the trip, right?"

Ding Yuqin and the others asked somewhat concerned.

"It was okay; there weren't any dangers for me, although there were some unexpected events, of course, with substantial gains as well..."

Wang Tao briefly chatted with everyone.

Hearing that Wang Tao had killed a terrifying Fifth-Order Giant Zombie and then fought with a Sixth-Rank Night Demon Lord, everyone was somewhat astonished.

This might not be dangerous for Wang Tao, but for others, these were lethal threats!

Indeed, traveling long distances in the apocalypse was very dangerous...

After all the new arrivals disembarked from the Golden Eagle, Wang Tao said to Ding Yuqin and the others,

"I'll tell you more later, I'm going to make another trip now."
