Chapter 205: Chapter 178: Monkey Brew Obtained

It was only three minutes.

The Spiritual Apes left behind a dozen or so corpses before being driven out of the pile of rubble.

Everyone got a chance to catch their breath.

"Whew."

"Those damn sons-of-bitches Spiritual Apes aren’t so tough after all. I just killed two of ’em!"

"Heh, you’re amazing. I only managed to kill one."

"If we keep this up, we’ve got a great chance of making it out alive."

"Damn right!"

...

For a moment, the survivors were even in the mood to chat.

At first, watching their comrades fall one after another, they had felt death breathing down their necks. Fear had gripped them, and even the vicious thugs Second Sister-in-law had brought with her were dead silent.

Now, having been inside for over half an hour, they had seen more than their share of death.

They had grown somewhat accustomed to it, even numb.

Second Sister-in-law, Brother Dong, and the bald man found Hong She to discuss their plans.

"I have a feeling the Spiritual Apes are planning another large-scale attack."

"If we can hold off this next wave, things should get a lot easier."

"So... what do we do now?"

...

They all chimed in.

At a time like this, survival was all that mattered.

All their previous disagreements were cast aside.

"I know what you’re all thinking."

Hong She saw right through them and said, "Don’t worry. We’ll be using Hand Grenades next."

"That should help take the pressure off you."

"Let me throw the Hand Grenades."

Xie Shaokun volunteered, "My aim is terrible, but I’ve got plenty of strength."

Hong She nodded.

Below the giant boulder, Second Sister-in-law, Brother Dong, and the bald man all breathed a sigh of relief.

With Hand Grenades...

The Spiritual Apes would probably be stunned by the blasts.

Their casualties would be catastrophic.

It might even be enough to shatter their ranks completely, preventing them from mounting another effective attack.

"How many people are left?"

Hong She asked.

"Including the three of us, forty-three in total."

The bald man replied.

"Let’s split into three groups."

Hong She said.

Everyone nodded.

This would also allow them to maximize their Power.

"First group, fifteen people. Brother Dong, your fifth-batch people will form this group. You’re up first."

"Second group, fifteen people. Baldy, you’ll pick fourteen men to go with you. You’ll be right behind the first group."

"Third group, thirteen people. Second Sister-in-law, you’ll pick twelve people. And that guy who looks like a brown bear—he’s with you."

Hong She proposed.

The combat strength was distributed evenly.

The order of deployment was also fair.

No one objected; they all nodded in agreement, though Brother Dong was visibly nervous and afraid.

However, Hong She acted as if he hadn’t noticed.

He had already helped as much as he could; he wouldn’t compromise fairness now.

Doing so would only breed resentment, which would affect their overall combat performance and the entire battle—an outcome he clearly wanted to avoid.

"Go on."

He waved his hand dismissively, his gaze falling upon the female salesperson lying on the ground. He gave her shapely rear a kick and said, "You know how to kneel, right?"

"In a moment, I’m going to rest my gun on your shoulder. Your job is to hold the front of the gun and don’t let it slip off."

"Okay."

The saleswoman was no longer as panicked, terrified, and limp with fear as she had been at the start. She even had the presence of mind to deliberately try and seduce Hong She.

Too bad for her.

Hong She preferred women like Second Sister-in-law.

He had no interest in the saleswoman at all.

"Behave yourself."

He kicked her shapely rear again and said, "Be careful, or the gun might go off and blow your head off."

Unexpectedly,

the saleswoman grabbed the gun barrel, sliding her hand back and forth along it as she cooed, "A gun won’t go off that easily unless you’re polishing it, right?"

Hong She laughed.

If not for these circumstances, he would never in his life have been able to talk to such a beautiful saleswoman like this.

He was even starting to look forward to the Apocalypse.

Of course, before that, he still had to do everything he could to increase his strength and become more powerful.

"They’re coming again!"

"There are so many!"

"They’re so fast!"

Just then, Xie Shaokun’s voice rang out. He heaved up a case of Hand Grenades and quickly looked for a good throwing distance.

The moment he found his footing,

"ROAR."

"BANG."

the battle on Little Flower’s side erupted.

A large horde of Spiritual Apes also appeared in everyone’s line of sight.

In front of the rubble pile,

dozens of towering trees were densely packed with Spiritual Apes.

There were too many to count.

"This..."

Brother Dong and the others in the first group were all drained of color.

"Fire!"

Hong She roared, pulling the trigger without hesitation.

RAT-TAT-TAT.

Countless bullets poured out. He even took out another submachine gun, propped it on the saleswoman’s other shoulder, and fired wildly.

With so many Spiritual Apes, he could hit them even without aiming!

So, he wasn’t aiming for precision.

"Ah!"

The saleswoman felt like her ears were about to explode, but she didn’t dare move a muscle.
