Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 994 - 395: Attending the Party_4
"I forgot about modern firepower..."
Wang Tao slapped his forehead. It was not only the high walls that allowed the base to exist for so long but also firepower!
However, this also eased Wang Tao's mind. As long as the Giant Eagle didn't dare to attack the base, it was fine. This was considered a safe zone for humans, otherwise, it would be troublesome.
"Mr. Wang, happy new year!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a suit, sporting a big belly, and a face brimming with a smile like Maitreya Buddha approached him. It was Zhou Long from the Loyalty Guild.
Just that Zhou Long's suit seemed a bit ill-fitting, which looked somewhat comical.
"Happy new year!"
Wang Tao smiled and greeted him.
"If only I knew, I would have dressed casual too! It's all because of my spouse, insisting that I dress up. Even in a post-apocalyptic world, we still have to be so particular..."
Seeing Wang Tao dressed in casual clothes, Zhou Long immediately had something to complain about.
"Haha!"
Wang Tao laughed heartily.
His relationship with Duan Xuchang was relatively close, but with Zhou Long, it was quite ordinary. After drinking tea and chatting nonchalantly for a while, Zhou Long got up and left. Then, Cui Sheng came over.
"Mr. Wang, the party is about to start soon, please make your way to the entrance..."
"Eh? Just us?"
Wang Tao was a bit surprised, as there weren't many people in the tea room.
"There are many more, but some arrived late and went directly to the venue," Cui Sheng explained.
"I see."
Wang Tao nodded and then joined the others en route to the party.
"There really are a lot of people!"
The venue was bustling with people everywhere.
As soon as Wang Tao and his group entered, they instantly attracted a lot of attention. Just like before, all eyes were on Xiang Hongbin and the five Black Snakes.
"Mr. Wang, Madam Lan, you've arrived!"
Gu Yun approached them laughing heartily, aware of Xiang Hongbin's presence, and therefore, not as surprised as the others.
Seeing Wang Tao accompanied by Lightning and the Black Snakes, Gu Yun's smile grew deeper, and he came over to whisper:
"Mr. Wang, it's like this, the party will be broadcast live to all the city's residents, and there will be shots of the audience. We need to showcase our strength in front of the public, so... you know!"
"..."
With that explanation, Wang Tao understood.
Plainly put, creatures like Blacky and Lightning were props the City Hall planned to use to show off in front of the citizens.

If they could control even Fourth-Level Organisms, what else couldn't they do?
"Mr. Wang, this way, please! I have arranged for the Starfire Society to sit here. If there's anything you're not satisfied with, you can contact me at any time..."
Head Secretary Gu personally led Wang Tao and his companions to a section in the front row.
"This spot is quite good, don't trouble yourself Head Secretary Gu, go ahead with your duties."
"Great! If there is anything, you can directly instruct Cui Sheng, or call for me. I'll be off to take care of things!"
After Wang Tao and his group sat down, they noticed some snacks and a program list on a small table next to them. Wang Tao opened it and immediately exclaimed in admiration.
He had previously mentioned that parties during the apocalypse should differ from those in peaceful times, and the program list confirmed this.
Besides a small fraction of performances being singing and dancing, the rest were all sorts of things like pair sparring, combat drills, ability demonstrations, new weapon debuts, and even live monster hunting!
"This seems quite interesting!"
Wang Tao said, rubbing his chin.
"Mr. Wang, hello..."
Just then, Wang Tao heard someone calling him.
Looking up, he saw a slender middle-aged man dressed in a Zhongshan suit, who appeared to be around sixty years old.
"Hello, and you are...?"
Wang Tao did not recognize him.
The man smiled and said:
"My name is Yao Guodong, the mayor of our Changhe City Base..."
