In this post-apocalyptic world, I unexpectedly became a star galaxy master.

Despite the extreme cold these past few days, Hongtang has been quite comfortable staying in the stone house.

The seven brothers in the infrastructure project built the stone house very well. The indoor heating inside is very effective, and only half a stove of coal is needed to keep it warm until dawn.

Hongtang was very reluctant to leave, having only stayed for a little over a month.

She took various photos of the inside and outside of the stone house as souvenirs, and only after archiving the photos along with the construction data did she pack away everything inside the house.

Actually, there's not much. If we're talking about valuable items, it's the generator, the coal stove, and the waste disposal system—those are the only three things we must take.

We left the doors and windows, just in case we come back someday.

Hongtang blocked the entrance with a large stone and prepared to leave.

The snow outside was very thick, almost up to her knees.

HaGe seemed to really enjoy playing in the snow, always burrowing into snowdrifts. So Hongtang collected a small snow mountain and put it in her space for HaGe to play with.

The custom-made winter coat for HaGe arrived, but it doesn't seem to like wearing it, and the temperature doesn't seem to be a problem for it. Hongtang just let it be.

As for Hongtang herself, she felt that the temperature was tolerable, perhaps because of the fire energy.

So she only wore a regular thick down jacket, the kind that reaches her ankles. But her snow boots, hat, and gloves were all high-tech items she bought from Xishir.

These are vulnerable parts of the body and need to be well protected. Especially the face; when cold air enters the lungs through the mouth and nose, it feels like being pricked with needles.

This extreme cold is no joke.

Fortunately, the hat covered his face, leaving only his eyes showing.

Before they had walked far, their hats and gloves were covered with a layer of frost, but Hongtang dried them off with her fire energy.

Therefore, people with fire-type abilities are truly fortunate in extreme cold.

Seeing that Ha Ge had played enough, Hong Tang picked him up, dried him with fire energy, put him in her backpack, and carried him on her back.

From now on, she'll have to carry a backpack whenever she goes out, so she can conceal taking things from her spatial storage. Although her current combat power is so strong that she has no rivals, there's absolutely no need for her to do this, but it's always better to be cautious.

"Brother Ha, you're so heavy! You need to lose weight!" This kitten must weigh 10 pounds already, almost like a piglet. Whose four-month-old kitten weighs this much?

"Meow~" Silly woman, I've already agreed to let you squat in my bag, and you're still nagging. You're so annoying.

Hongtang, in a good mood, tugged at the silk thread wrapped around her wrist to attach the bracelet, but it didn't budge.

"Oh my, Sisi has grown into Xiaoqing now, and she's even started hibernating."

Sisi: Mom, I drank too much energy water just now, I need to absorb it.

The vast expanse of white stretched out like a fine canvas waiting to be painted, quietly spread across the mountains and land.

Hongtang walked slowly, preparing to savor the scenery one last time. After all, she had no intention of returning this time.

After leaving the stone house and descending the mountain to the highway, a journey of about two hours, she planned to walk for the first hour and then teleport away afterwards.

In this way, most of the footprints would remain in the mountains and forests, unnoticed by anyone. In her opinion, in this day and age, especially in such cold weather, who would bother going up the mountain for no reason?

But her thinking was too one-sided. After all, people like her who have no shortage of food, clothing, or warmth in the apocalypse are still a minority.

So, barring any unforeseen circumstances, something unexpected is bound to happen.

Just as Hongtang was about to teleport out of the forest, she suddenly heard someone shouting and cursing not far away.

Judging from the sounds, two groups of people are fighting, both of them consisting of strong young men.

She wasn't going to get involved, but a loud shout made her abandon the idea.

"Ikeno, run back and get help! We can't beat them!" someone shouted.

Ikeno? That name sounds familiar.

By the way, isn't that rich kid who modified his own campervan named Chi Ye? Could it be him?

Just imagine, there's the Beishan Villas right down the mountain, a low-key yet luxurious area for the wealthy. Maybe it really is true.

Should I lend a hand this time, considering he helped me modify my car and fix my fuel needs?

Hongtang used her spiritual power to perceive the past and indeed "saw" Chi Ye.

He lay on the snow, his face bruised and swollen, having been beaten up by someone. The four young men with him were also in bad shape and were trying to stop a group of people.

There were six of them, one more than them, and they were also much more muscular.

The two groups of people included those carrying axes and knives, and those empty-handed. There was scattered wood on the ground, as well as two wild rabbits and several sparrows.

It seems they all went up the mountain to chop wood and hunt.

Oh, there are also superhumans among them. Ikeno and his group have two superhumans, while the other side has three, but their ranks are not high, all at level one.

All things considered, Ikeno and his group are still at a disadvantage. No wonder someone told him to hurry back and call for reinforcements.

"Trying to go back and call for backup? None of you are leaving today!" shouted a tall, burly man, brandishing his large machete.

"That's right. I was originally thinking that I would let you go as long as you handed over the game and firewood. But now, hehehe."

A sleazy-looking man with a scarred face chimed in, even wiping the face of the young man in front of him. This caused the other burly men to burst into laughter.

"No wonder they're rich kids. Look at these pretty boys, all with their smooth skin and delicate features, they're not much worse off than those old women. We haven't had 'that' in months, so today's the perfect time to break the ice."

"Fuck you!" The young man who was being touched had his hands bound, and could only spit at the scarred man.

However, the young man's accomplice, a ruthless man who didn't talk much, unleashed a burst of flames when no one was looking, burning off the lewd scarred man's eyebrows and hair.

This completely enraged the other party. "Fuck you, you dare to set your father on fire? I'll take it out on you first!"

Then the two sides began a chaotic battle, with all sorts of supernatural abilities flying everywhere.

Ikeno also got up from the snow and joined the battle. He is an earth-type ability user, his partner is a fire-type ability user, and they are fighting against the opponent's lightning, ice, and water-type abilities.

Those without superpowers used knives and axes to chop and axes to smash.

Because they were at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength, numbers, and special abilities, Ikeno's side quickly showed signs of defeat.

Seeing that a bolt of lightning was about to strike Chi Ye on the head, Hong Tang had no choice but to take action.

She transformed a wisp of spiritual energy into a needle and pierced the minds of the lewd scarred man and his gang. Instantly, the men covered their heads, rolled on the ground, and screamed incoherently.

Ikeno and his group were completely bewildered by this sudden turn of events, but they quickly recovered and gave the other side a good beating. After venting their anger, they hurriedly left with the spoils of both teams.

Hongtang didn't kill them; she only knocked them unconscious. If they could wake up before freezing to death, they might still have a chance to survive.

As for how Chino and the others would deal with them while they were unconscious—whether they would kill them or just give them a good beating—that was none of her business.

Hongtang, who had kept her merits and fame hidden, teleported out of the mountains and forests and arrived near the highway.

When no one was watching, she took out a minivan from her storage space and drove away.
