My neighborhood has time-traveled.

Chapter 36 This is what happens when you betray me!

Wang Hao looked Li Hao up and down and noticed that he also had quite a few wounds on his body. "This time, we really owe you a lot. Otherwise, I don't know how many more people would have been bitten to death."

Following Wang Hao's gaze, everyone looked at Li Hao's arms and thighs, which were covered in wounds from rat bites, stained with blood.

Not only Li Hao, but also Li Wen, Niu Dazhuang, Zhang Jinfeng and others, each had multiple wounds on their bodies.

When the rats attacked, no one was spared.

Niu Dazhuang pointed to the two mutated rats on the ground, stretched out his arm, and said, "These two were killed by me, Zhang Jingfeng, and Brother Li Wen. Look, my arm has been bitten so badly. These beasts have really sharp teeth."

The wound on his arm was particularly deep and bleeding profusely.

"It's been so difficult."

Wang Hao nodded, feeling a pang of sadness.

Unexpectedly, a rat king appeared this time and even launched a rat swarm.

His key members were almost wiped out.

It made him feel a wave of fear.

Who knows what kind of powerful mutated creature might suddenly appear next?

The world is far more dangerous than he imagined.

Li Hao glanced at Wang Hao and Zhou Mengting, "It's fortunate that you two arrived in time this time."

As the fight progressed, the Rat King became enraged, and all the mutated rats rushed towards him.

If the others don't come, he will have no choice but to escape with Li Wen and the others.

He glanced at the rat carcasses on the ground; the arrival of the group had given them dozens more spoils of war.

Wang Hao looked at Zhou Mengting and praised her, "Thanks to Mengting, it was because she saw you being surrounded from the air that we were able to provide timely support."

Li Hao nodded to Zhou Mengting, "You did a very good job with the air support."

Zhou Mengting blushed slightly and said shyly, "It's nothing. I'm happy to be able to help everyone."

Wang Hao looked at the pile of mutated rat corpses on the ground and said to Li Hao, "Li Hao, since you killed these mutated rats, they naturally belong to you. I believe no one else should have any objections." Wang Hao looked at the crowd.

No objections.

No objections.

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

Li Hao is so powerful, and he also saved his Dawn companions.

They admired him so much that they naturally wouldn't dare to covet the rat carcasses that Li Hao had worked so hard to kill.

The mice were divided into two groups.

One was from someone who was stabbed to death; this one belonged to Li Hao, Li Wen, and others.

The other victim was also killed by a petrol bomb and belonged to another Dawn member.

"Clang clang clang".

Li Hao and Li Wen used Damascus steel blades to slash and cut open the head of the mutated giant rat, retrieving the evolution stone.

The evolution stone is about the size of a little finger and is milky white.

Niu Dazhuang and Zhang Jingfeng took two evolution stones from the heads of two mutated rats the size of domestic pigs.

After discussing it with Zhang Jingfeng, Niu Dazhuang said to Li Wen, "Although the three of us killed these two mutated rats together, Li Wen, you were the main force."

So Li Wen took one of the two evolution stones, and Niu Dazhuang and Zhang Jinfeng used the other one for evaluation.

"Everyone, please lend a hand," Wang Hao called on the others, who also joined the head-chopping team.

To make sure no one had taken Li Hao's mutated rat carcasses, he even counted them, and had Zhou Mengting record how many each person was responsible for cutting.

Finally, they put them all into bags and handed the evolution stones to Li Hao.

Li Hao accepted the evolution stone.

It feels quite heavy when you lift it up lightly.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of joy, for this was the reward for all his hard work.

He felt a little regretful when he thought about the mutated rat king that had escaped.

Wang Hao pointed to the rat meat scattered on the ground and said to him...

"You can't possibly eat all this mutated rat meat. Why don't you exchange it for points?"

That's what he's really concerned about.

After all, evolution stones are rare, and he knew he couldn't let Li Hao hand them over.

Unlike mutated rat meat, Li Hao and Li Wen couldn't possibly keep all of it for themselves.

"Yes, that's the only way." Li Hao nodded, agreeing to exchange it for points.

He plans to keep some for himself and exchange the rest for points.

Wang Hao shouted to the crowd, "Everyone, help me carry all the mutated rat corpses back."

.........

riverside.

"Clang clang clang".

Zhao Meng, carrying a fire axe, forcefully chopped at the head of the large fish.

Sparks flew with every strike.

"Big brother, is it very tough?" Huang Mao asked, seeing that his older brother had chopped at the fish several times but hadn't even cut off a single scale.

"Damn, it's as hard as a metal block." Zhao Meng stopped, picked up the mineral water bottle next to him, and took a few sips of water.

The blond-haired man quickly handed him a lit cigarette.

With a cigarette dangling from his mouth, Zhao Meng swung his axe again, hacking wildly at the fish's head.

The scales finally fell off.

"clang."

When an axe strikes bone, it is equally hard.

Zhao Meng pointed at the four mutants, "You four, come over here and chop them down together."

He was very strong, but chopping continuously exhausted him.

Having underlings around me means I should make good use of them.

He understood the principle that there is strength in numbers.

The four mutants took the axes handed to them by the others and joined in the chopping.

"Clang clang clang clang".

A rhythmic chopping sound rang out.

The fish bones were finally split open.

A milky-white evolution stone is revealed.

A hint of excitement appeared in the eyes of several mutants.

Zhao Meng took the evolution stone out of the fish's head.

His eyes lit up with surprise.

Killing this mutated fish was extremely difficult.

This evolution stone clearly felt different to him.

Upon closer inspection, a faint blue tinge appears within the milky white, though the blue is almost imperceptible.

Just as he was about to put the evolution stone into his mouth, a mutant next to him quickly reached out and snatched the evolution stone from his hand.

Grass!

Zhao Meng was furious.

After taking the evolution stone, the mutant turned and ran away.

While running, it would put the evolution stone into its mouth.

Such a powerful mutated fish must have incredibly valuable evolution stones.

Fortune favors the bold, and the mutant believed that by consuming this evolution stone, he would become even stronger.

After eating it, their strength increased greatly, so they naturally no longer needed to fear Zhao Meng.

This is also why he chose to rob it.

"puff!"

The mutant's body jolted violently, his eyes widened, and he leaned forward uncontrollably before spitting out blood.

Behind him, an axe was stuck.

In the distance, Zhao Meng maintained his throwing gesture and caught up in the blink of an eye.

The mutant fell heavily to the ground, the evolution stone in his hand falling to the side.

Zhao Meng picked up the evolution stone from the ground, threw it into his mouth, cracked it open, and swallowed it with a gulp.

He was enveloped in steam, his entire body was flushed red, but his eyes were icy cold.

He approached the mutant.

The mutant struggled to his feet and staggered forward.

Zhao Meng leaped over ten meters and landed on the back of the mutant.

"Bang!"

The mutants were trampled on the ground.

"Why did you betray me! Why!"

"What I hate most is betrayal!!"

Zhao Meng pulled out the axe from the mutant's back and chopped off his head with a "thud".

He held his head up, turned to look at his underlings who were running up, and especially glanced at the three mutated individuals. His eyes were icy as he gave a stern warning.

"This is what happens when you betray me!"

Those targeted remained silent in fear; some girls screamed in terror as they looked at the bloodied head.

Zhang Xiaonan felt a sudden tremor in her heart.

Everyone's expression changed.

A sense of fear welled up from the bottom of my heart.

Zhao Meng tossed his head into the air, sending it flying in an arc before it "plop" into the river.

The blood flowing from the head stained the river red, attracting numerous piranhas.

The piranhas were frantically eating.

His head sank into the water and disappeared.

…………

Let's go back to the morning.

Community.

basement.

A long queue formed inside the water storage room where the water tank was located, with men, women, and children carrying buckets to collect water.

A woman with curly hair said to the woman wearing glasses, who was Zhang Xiaonan's mother:

"I remember you've gotten water several times today."

Zhang Xiaonan's mother raised her voice and said bluntly, "What's it to you? Doesn't it need water for cooking? Doesn't it need water for washing clothes? One bucket of water isn't enough."

These words made the curly-haired woman frown slightly, and she couldn't help but reason with Zhang Xiaonan's mother, "There's no water to drink, and you're still using water to wash clothes."

Zhang Xiaonan's mother immediately retorted, "How can you not wash it? It'll smell bad if you leave it there."

The woman with curly hair said, "I wouldn't even dare to use it to wash clothes."

"That's because you're stupid," Zhang Xiaonan's mother mocked.

This immediately drew the ire of a man in the queue nearby, who said, "You have no manners at all. We would never use water meant for cooking to wash clothes. You're wasting everyone's water."

Water is scarce to begin with, so we can't afford to waste it like this.

Another woman chimed in, "Exactly, didn't you see we're all washing our clothes in the community pool?"

Zhang Xiaonan's mother said with a look of disgust, "The water in that pool is all green and smelly. How can you wash clothes in it? And you keep saying you didn't use it to wash clothes, but who knows if you did use it to wash clothes behind my back? Move aside, move aside."

Carrying a bucket of water, she pushed through the crowd and walked out of the basement.

in the afternoon.

I don't know where the news came from, but it's said that the green plants in the community will be cut down and replaced with vegetables and grains.

"This is mine! Didn't you see the sign here?" Zhang Xiaonan's mother said to the curly-haired woman, pointing to a piece of land.

The greenery on this plot of land has been removed, and a sign has been put up that says her building.

"Just because you put up a sign doesn't mean it's yours!" the curly-haired woman retorted.

Zhang Xiaonan's mother said matter-of-factly, "Of course, otherwise there wouldn't be enough land to go around. Whoever gets it first gets it."
