Doomsday: I Can Get a Hint

Chapter 471 - 284: Battle at Xuanwu Lake

"I used to underestimate him, but he really is someone worth noting. Compared to him, Yan Feng falls short."

Di Wushuang’s lips curled into a smile:

"Let them fight. To become an emperor, one needs a rival. Otherwise, it would be too lonely."

"Your Majesty, aren’t you going?"

The white-haired elder looked at Di Wushuang.

With Di Wushuang’s abilities, it’s possible to go to Su Jing.

Though they were labeled as north and south, they aren’t actually that far apart.

Before the apocalypse, a high-speed train took just over three hours.

With Di Wushuang’s power, suppressing Wang Hao now would be easy and enjoyable.

"Of course not."

Di Wushuang glanced at him and said casually:

"The south is currently a scattering of sand; it’s best if someone brings it together. I’ll stabilize the north first and wait for the right time to make decisive moves."

"But..."

"Are you worried about raising a tiger only to create future troubles?"

Di Wushuang shook his head with a smile: "If he truly proves stronger than me, then there’s no harm in letting him have the throne."

The white-haired elder was momentarily taken aback, then bowed: "Your Majesty’s great righteousness."

"Still, it wouldn’t hurt to test if he qualifies to be my opponent."

Di Wushuang looked in the direction of Su Jing, his lips curling slightly upward.

Inside the villa’s secret room

Wang Hao stared at the pulsating heart in his hand, frowning slightly.

This heart came from a secret base he retrieved it from.

It has been beating continuously.

This has completely overturned conventional beliefs.

Even in the post-apocalyptic world, this is quite explosive.

"Could it be created by someone with surgical superpowers?"

Wang Hao speculated whimsically.

"Brother, this heart is so amazing. If it’s transplanted into someone, could it make them immortal?"

Xiaoyueyue asked fancifully as well.

"Death would still happen. After all, it keeps beating, but other organs will age."

Wang Hao patted her head gently and suddenly paused with a thought.

Xiaoyueyue’s words had reminded him.

Although this heart couldn’t grant immortality, this miraculous heart must be extraordinary.

If it were transplanted into someone, it might cause some unique changes.

"Should I give it a try?"

Wang Hao hesitated for a moment.

Heart transplantation, something unimaginable in ancient times, is now possible.

But it requires compatibility and avoiding rejection reactions.

However, what if the transplant succeeds and the recipient gains immense power, even greater than his, and rebels?

Have someone he trusts undergo the transplant?

But if they die from rejection, he would be unwilling to lose them.

The idea of transplanting it into himself never crossed Wang Hao’s mind.

"Forget it, let it be for now. I’ll find someone knowledgeable to look at it later."

Wang Hao handed the heart to Xiaoxue, asking her to store it in the safe.

Then he began to focus on practicing spells.

Xiaoxue and Xiaoyue quietly left the secret room without disturbing him.

...

In the shelter

Chen Lingxue and Xu Xiang sat facing each other.

They had also received the news of Wang Hao’s challenge.

"Lingxue, how about it? Going together?"

Xu Xiang asked with a smile.

He planned to go watch the fight.

And also make a stop at the Su Jing First Settlement Camp to buy some Crystal Stone-related items.

"I..."

Chen Lingxue hesitated.

Unlike Xu Xiang, she had quite a few things to attend to.

"It’s only a matter of days, really. We were planning to go to Su Jing to purchase some items anyway. You don’t often get to witness a battle like this."

Xu Xiang said lightly.

"Alright! I’ll go!"

Chen Lingxue finally nodded in agreement.

She was very confident in Wang Hao’s strength.

But this time, he had openly challenged others; she didn’t know what kind of experts might appear.

She owed Wang Hao a lot, a great deal.

Now that Wang Hao faced danger, emotionally and logically, she had to be there to support him.

...

At Xuanwu Lake, the day after the challenge was issued.

Wang Hao appeared in the control room.

The time for the prompt to appear had come again.

This time, the prompt was quite important for Wang Hao.

It could help him gauge the situation of the battle at Xuanwu Lake.

If there were any issues, the prompt should indicate them.

Lying in bed, Wang Hao slowly closed his eyes.

With his current strength, there were few who he needed to fear.

As long as those bug-like characters don’t appear, he’s protected by his Vajra Indestructible Body and is unfazed by anyone.

This battle, he intended to resolve all issues and teach everyone with blood that he, Wang Hao, isn’t to be trifled with.

The next morning,

Wang Hao suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the back of his hand immediately.

The prompt came right on time.

[Purple Gold Flame Scorpion, weakness: fear of fire]

Wang Hao: ???

What on earth?

What is this Purple Gold Flame Scorpion?

I’m asking for information about the battle at Xuanwu Lake!

Wang Hao was flabbergasted.

But on second thought, since the prompt didn’t mention the Xuanwu Lake battle, it proved that this trip won’t be too dangerous.

After washing up, Wang Hao left the control room.

"Brother!"

He immediately ran into Chen Tingting.

"Yeah!"

Wang Hao smiled and patted her head: "How is it? All cleared up? Not everything needs to be done personally. There are plenty of capable people in the villa area. Didn’t I bring back that Yang Lu earlier on?"

"Yes! Sister Yang Lu is really impressive."

Chen Tingting nodded firmly:

"And her brother, the one called Yang Long, commands the wolf pack really well, greatly enhancing our settlement’s defensive capabilities.

Giving the guard team these capabilities, searching for supplies outside will be much safer and greatly reduce the chances of zombie ambushes."
