Meng Chao smiled coldly and said, "Are you saying that we should apologize to you?"
Qin Hu pretended not to hear the mockery in Meng Chao's words. He swung his hand and said, "Forget it. I'm a magnanimous person, and I won't stoop to the same level as a junior. The past is already in the past. Whoever brings it up again is a bastard. Right now, the most important thing is to escape from this stupid place!"
Once he finished eating the last mouthful of high-calorie compressed food, he patted his stomach, feeling like he had not had enough. He thought about it and waved at Meng Chao. "Brat, come here."
Meng Chao instantly put on a wary expression.
His chain sabers slithered about silently like venomous snakes.
Qin Hu's lips curled up, and he mumbled, "Brat, you're pretty wary!"
He decided to take off his tactical watch and tossed it at Meng Chao. "This contains the surveying data we obtained while we were moving. It also includes a few cracks in the rock stratum that I discovered that lead to the surface. If we climb up through these cracks, we'll be able to escape.
"Put the data into your tactical watch. If something happens, you'll have a few more ways to escape."
Tactical watches were the most loyal assistants of superhumans in the wild.
Not only could they display the time, temperature, pressure, altitude, depth, the density of spirit energy, the intensity of spirit energy ripples, and other information, there were dozens of them.
They could also store a large amount of data, including the monsters' weaknesses and fighting methods.
They were also made of the sturdiest crystals and superbeast materials. They could resist powerful tremors, corrosion, and spirit energy magnetic field interference. It could be said that they were the most valuable equipment a superhuman had.
Both Lu Siya and Shen Yulong had poured a lot of money into the mine exploration mission and prepared the most advanced tactical watches for their team members.
Both of them had fought a bloody battle just now, but their tactical watches were not damaged.
Meng Chao brought out the data cable from Qin Hu's tactical watch and connected it to his own. He brought up the surveying data and looked at it. His eyebrows quirked up a little. "So, you didn't come here from the underground river!"
"Yeah. This area has just gone through a major geological change. The Red Radiance Jade mine rose up from the depths of the ground. The powerful spirit energy impact tore apart the sturdy rock stratum and created countless cracks. There's definitely more than one path underground."
Qin Hu told Meng Chao that Shen Yulong's mine exploration team had a geologist. He brought them to the edge of Raging Waves and used a secret technique to find a cave that led straight to the mine.
Unfortunately, there were a large number of superbeasts infected by Blood Flowers in the depths of the cave.
After a fierce battle, a large number of superbeasts turned into undead.
They retreated as they fought. They fled underground and blew up the rock wall behind them, blocking the entire cave and blocking the undead creatures outside.
Naturally, he could not go back the way he came. Even if he found the Red Radiance Jade mine, he had to search for another exit.
Therefore, Shen Yulong's team spent an extra twenty-four hours exploring the gaps in the rock wall above their heads. They used ultrasonic feedback and air flow to explore several escape routes.
"However, unless it's absolutely necessary, it's better not to go through those cracks. I'd rather go through the underground river you mentioned and face the raging Lion Dragon Fish," Qin Hu said.
"Why?" Meng Chao did not understand.
"Because right now, we have already arrived at the underground of the Raging Waves Mountain Range. Following the cracks in the rock strata above our heads, we will climb upwards. Even if we manage to climb to the surface, we will still be within the Raging Waves Mountain Range."
"What is Raging Waves? It's the nest of Apocalyptic Beasts! The Deity Realm elites and Apocalyptic Beasts might be engaged in a destructive battle there right now. We're just two puny Earth Realm elites. If we go up there, won't we just be asking for death? The Apocalyptic Beasts can stomp us to death with just one foot! "
Meng Chao thought about it and agreed with him.
Even if they managed to climb to Raging Waves Mountain Range, they would just be climbing from the eighteenth level of hell to the seventeenth level of hell. There would be no difference.
But when he thought about it again, he found that it was not right!
He realized that he had overlooked something very important.
Qin Hu was still alive.
In his previous life, Qin Hu had been the boss of Prosperous for at least five years. His father had been injured, he had fought a lawsuit against Prosperous, and after he won the lawsuit, he had gone to ask Qin Hu for money.
Heavens … This meant that without Meng Chao as a variable, Qin Hu had managed to escape with his life.
Meng Chao's eyes instantly lit up.
He was glad that he did not just watch Qin Hu die.
This idiot was actually very lucky. He was one of the few survivors in this strange and unfathomable scheme. In fact, he might even be the only survivor!
But …
Meng Chao narrowed his eyes. He endured the pain in his head and remembered more things.
In his previous life, after he became a harvester with his father, he seemed to have met Qin Hu once.
At that time, Qin Hu was temperamental and ruthless. Every single one of his pores exuded a thick stench of blood, and he looked like a monster in human skin. He left a very bad impression on Meng Chao.
After he returned to the past, Meng Chao had met him a few times. He felt that while Mr. Hu was domineering, he was not as ruthless as he was in his previous life.
Was it because of the experience underground that caused his temperament to change so much?
Right, Qin Hu was currently the vice captain of Frenzied Saber.
However, the Qin Hu in his previous life's memory fragments was a lone hunter.
He handed the daily operations of Prosperous Resource Recovery Company to his brother-in-law, Shen Rongfa.
He stayed in the wild all the time and seemed to be chasing after some powerful monster.
After the Meng family won the lawsuit, they tried to ask Qin Hu for money a few times, but they never saw him. He was either in isolated training or hunting in the wild.
In his previous life, the Meng siblings thought that Qin Hu did not want to give them money and was intentionally avoiding them.
Now that they thought about it, with Qin Hu's power, there was no need for him to avoid two normal people.
This matter was an important trigger for Bai Jiacao to turn into the Dark Witch in his previous life.
Even now, Meng Chao still remembered the indignant words Bai Jiacao had said at that time.
"He went to the wild to chase after the White Spirit again? What a joke! Qin Hu was just a five-star superhuman. He hadn't even reached the peak of Heaven Realm! The White Spirit was one of the Nine Great Supernatural Entities. Even Deity Realm elites might not be able to handle it, so how could he possibly kill it?!
"Excuses! What a lousy excuse! How could he use such a ludicrous lie to dismiss us?
"The law will only protect powerful people like Qin Hu, rich people, and people who stand at the top. It won't be able to protect our interests! I swear that from this moment on, I won't believe in the law anymore! I'll rely on my own strength to snatch back what belongs to us! "
Meng Chao widened his eyes.
He was shocked by the memories from his previous life that suddenly surfaced in his mind.
Then, he sank into an even deeper state of confusion.
What was the White Spirit?
What were the Nine Great Supernatural Entities? Even Deity Realm elites might not be able to handle them? They were even stronger than Apocalyptic Beasts!
Why did Qin Hu want to chase after the Nine Great Supernatural Entities, who were even stronger than Apocalyptic Beasts?
Also, Qin Hu was just a three-star superhuman at the peak of Earth Realm. He was already decades old, and he had been fighting in the wild for years. Hidden injuries had accumulated in his body, and his spirit meridians were blocked. His cultivation realm had long since stopped improving.
How did he manage to reach Heaven Realm in just a few short years and reach Spirit Vision Realm?
Could it be that he ran into a fortuitous encounter as well?
Meng Chao's mind raced, and his mind went into chaos.
"Brat, what's wrong with you?" Qin Hu asked in puzzlement.
"It's nothing."
Meng Chao sucked in a deep breath and decided to stake everything on this. He tossed the entire backpack at Qin Hu and said, "You shouldn't be full yet. Your stamina and spirit energy haven't recovered to their peak. There's still some food and medicine here. Do as you see fit!"
"You're giving them all to me?"
Qin Hu widened his eyes. "Then, what about yourself?"
"I … can't."
Meng Chao had placed all his bets on Qin Hu, but he was also worried that Qin Hu would turn against him, so he was prepared to test him again.
Hence, he used Walking Corpse again and largely reduced his bodily functions. He reduced his heartbeat, breathing, and the squirming of his organs. His face turned stark pale, and he became incredibly weak.
"I'm suffering from internal injuries. My organs must have ruptured when the Slit-mouthed Anacondas rammed into me just now, and I'm bleeding internally," Meng Chao said weakly.
"I'll give all these to you. You're a superhuman at the peak of Earth Realm, so you have to recover your strength as soon as possible so that you can save me."
At the same time, he quietly circulated his spirit energy and created a spirit energy magnetic field in secret to adjust his muscle fibers.
If Qin Hu got the backpack and revealed his savage side, Meng Chao could attack at any moment and deliver a fatal blow.
Qin Hu did not turn against him.
But he did not take the backpack either.
Instead, he scratched his beard for a long time before he pursed his lips and said, "Your acting skills are too bad."
"Huh?"
"Brat, you fell from such a high cliff just now, but you're still alive and kicking. You were just rammed into a few times by the Slit-mouthed Anacondas, and your organs are bleeding? Who would believe that?! "
"Um …" Meng Chao was speechless.
"Besides, don't you practice the Ultimate Style? It's said that you have cleared 1,024 branch meridians, can provide great protection to your organs, and can last for a long time, right?"
"That's …" Meng Chao was speechless.
"Also, I read an article on the official website of Agricultural University's martial arts course called The Birth of the Ultimate Style. It says that you're talented and have great healing abilities. That's why you were able to endure the severe injuries caused by the wrong medicine formula during the early stages of the Ultimate Style's experiments. You often went through more than ten incredibly painful experiments every day, and after one night of sleep, all your pain disappeared. You're a monster, and that's why you became the greatest contributor to the birth of the Ultimate Style. I think the article was written by your tutor, Gu Jianbo. He wasn't lying, right?"
"Yeah …" Meng Chao was speechless.
"Also, you used your pinky to hook a chain saber, and I saw it."
"Sigh …" Meng Chao sighed.
"So, what's the meaning of this? You don't trust me, so you're testing me? If you don't trust me, just say it. We can go our separate ways right now. There's no need for you to beat around the bush. You can't even play it right, and I can see through you with just one glance. Even I feel embarrassed for you! "
"Mr. Hu, I know my mistake. I was too sinister, and I wronged a good man like you who values relationships and righteousness. From this moment onwards, I will definitely trust you. Let's work together and break this scheme together so that we can get out of this damn place!"
