I'm Hoarding for the Apocalypse

208 Where Are the Women?

“We have to go out and look for women every day. There’s not even a breathing animal in this city, let alone women!”

“Lower your voice! Do you not want to live? What are you shouting for?! He might have eyes all over this place. If he finds out, do you still have a chance to live?”

“I just think it’s unfair! Why do we have to obey him? He’s captured so many women, but he has never thought of sharing them with his brothers. He keeps them all to himself! I think he’s completely forgotten his promise to us! If he didn’t say that he would lead us to live a good life with him, who’d be willing to work for him? What do we look like now? We’re just dogs that work for him!”

“So what do you want to say? Are you going to leave the underground city?”

“No way! I’ve given up so much. I’m not leaving!”

“If you don’t want to leave, what’s the point of complaining so much?”

“I’m just feeling aggrieved. Can’t I just complain a little?”

The two of them gradually walked away, and their voices became softer and softer. After confirming that they had left, Du Yue and the other two walked out of the ruins.

Listening to their conversation, they should be the people living in the underground city. If they followed the direction they came from, would they be able to find the entrance to the underground city? The three of them looked at each other. No one spoke, but they knew what each other was thinking. They immediately walked in the direction where the two people came from.

Along the way, the three of them tried to keep their footsteps as light as possible so that they would not make any sound. As for speed, it was not something they should be considering right now. As they walked farther and farther away, the sound of footsteps around him gradually became louder. Even if they did not see anyone, they could tell that there were many people around just by listening to the movements.

The three of them walked as if they were walking on thin ice. After all, there were quite a few people around them. No one knew if they would bump into these people at the next turn. Fortunately, the three of them were careful and lucky enough. Those people gradually dispersed and did not bump into them.

Listening to the conversation of these people, Du Yue knew what they were going to do. They were going to search for survivors in the urban area and then bring them all back. The men would work for the king, and the women would fill his harem for him. After hearing a few words, Du Yue became angrier and angrier in her heart, wishing she could cut off that king’s head right now.

Du Yue thought that she was not someone who liked to solve problems by killing, but she could not think of a faster way to deal with such a person than to cut off his head. He Xing took out a device the size of a tablet from his backpack. After fiddling with it for a while, he asked in a low voice, “I’ve found the entrance. You guys follow me.”

Upon hearing this, Du Yue followed him without hesitation. Xiang Nan did the same. He followed them without saying a word. The three of them walked forward with their backs bowed. He Xing, who was leading the way, would adjust their direction from time to time. After walking for about ten minutes, the three of them could vaguely see an iron door through the thick fog.

There were two people standing on the left and right sides of the door respectively, each with a knife at their waist. It was almost impossible for them to enter without making a sound. However, Du Yue and He Xing had already anticipated this situation and were mentally prepared to fight with them. He Xing whispered to Xiang Nan, “Follow us later, and don’t make a sound no matter what happens.”

Xiang Nan nodded to show that he understood. Seeing that Xiang Nan had stopped talking, Du Yue looked at him with a hint of admiration. They did not expect Xiang Nan to be of much help. As long as he did not drag them down at the critical moment, they were fine with anything else. From the looks of it, Xiang Nan was quite cooperative.

He Xing took out the various parts of the submachine gun from his backpack and assembled it as quickly as possible. Du Yue, who was beside him, did the same, but she completed it a few seconds later than him. Xiang Nan looked at the two’s skillful movements in a daze. For a moment, he did not know how to react.

He did not dare to think about it. What kind of people would carry a submachine gun with them? They were so skilled in assembling them! Before Xiang Nan could figure it out, he suddenly heard the sound of a human body falling to the ground. Xiang Nan looked toward the source of the sound and saw that the four people who were guarding the iron gate had fallen into the fog without a sound.
