The Meow Meow Legion's headquarters is located on the edge of the central base.

In the distance, the cicadas saw clumps of dead trees, with three or five kittens sitting on the treetops, their front paws together, sitting upright like sentries.

"Look over there, how cute!" Dongchan's eyes sparkled, and she felt all the resentment that had been building up in her chest for half a year dissipate.

Xia Chuhe glanced at it and gave it the same starry-eyed look: "Cute, I want to get it."

Dongchan glared at her and angrily retorted, "Pervert!"

Xia Chuhe smacked his lips, reminiscing about the carefree days of chasing kittens all over the house until their feet slipped.

Having encountered such a unique way of keeping watch, the two had undoubtedly come to the right place.

The wasteland environment is harsh; even kittens can only transplant dead trees on the surface to satisfy their natural instincts to look around. Their primary habitat is underground.

Xia Chuhe and his companion explained their purpose, and a kitten jumped into the ground to report it.

While waiting, Xia Chuhe couldn't resist trying to go behind the kitten and touch its ears, but Dong Chan slapped him away, earning him the title of "pervert" for the second time.

Under the watchful gaze of the kitten, the two waited until Su Ye personally greeted them.

"Although our legion's sacred object is a cat, most of the creatures within the legion are human."

As Su Ye walked through the crowds and the occasional kitten, she introduced the composition and history of the Meow Meow Legion to Xia Chuhe.

Initially, like most legions, the Meow Meow Legion was composed entirely of mercenaries.

Until a heroine rescued a litter of mutant cats during an adventure. The mutations of these cats were mainly manifested in their intelligence and mental state, with a few in their physical size.

The cat and the heroine accompany and help each other, overcoming difficulties together.

After everything was alright, the cat was grateful for the heroine's help, and also somewhat attached to the attentive service of the human servant, so it stayed by the heroine's side.

Later, the kitten probably thought life was pretty good with the heroine, and somehow it attracted another group of kittens.

Cats help humans guard their homes and fight alongside them, becoming sacred objects and mascots of the army, gradually forming the unique characteristics of the Meow Meow Army.

Xia Chuhe listened with great interest, wishing he could pluck a few cats into his arms and pet them vigorously.

The cats in the Meow Meow Legion seem to retain a lot of wildness and independence, and they don't easily let anyone touch them.

"However, some people are very hostile to our legion. When you first came here, you saw that there was only a small cat looking out from above, but in reality, there are many evolved beings hiding around, all of whom are voluntarily guarding our base."

As Su Ye spoke, she proudly puffed out her chest.

...

"Has Ah Bao returned yet?" Xia Chuhe chatted with Su Ye.

"Yes, I'm back. I arrived yesterday."

"The Corps came to me this time, could it be because A-Bao told on me? I didn't bully her, and I always paid her on time," Xia Chuhe joked.

Su Ye blinked and smiled, "It's something else, you'll find out soon enough... Ah, we're here, Mother."

Su Ye's mother, Su Cuisong, had a square face and straight lips. When she wasn't smiling, she looked slightly serious, giving the impression of being unsmiling at first glance.

However, she patted Su Ye's head and said, "Go play."

She exudes a strong sense of maternal love.

Su Cuisong smiled at Xia Chuhe and extended his right hand: "I've heard so much about you, Lord Xia."

Xia Chuhe hurriedly reached out to shake her hands, forcing himself to exchange pleasantries with her.

"Don't be nervous. The guild leader has been keeping an eye on Bru and the Temple of the Heavenly Gods. He heard a few days ago that you defeated the Temple of the Heavenly Gods, so he really wanted to meet you. That's why he asked Xiao Ye to invite you over."

...

Su Cuisong led the two through a maze of turns to a door. Pushing it open, they found themselves in a lush, green space under a clear blue sky, with towering artificial hills dotting the landscape.

Su Cuisong whispered, "This is an illusion set up by the commander; only the artificial mountain is real."

On the artificial hill, a large black and white cat lies, and an old man sits cross-legged beside it.

The old man had neatly braided pigtails and wore a wide white robe, exuding an air of otherworldly elegance.

She patted the gentler part of the artificial hill: "Young friends, please come up and sit down."

Xia Chuhe used both hands and feet to climb up in a few quick movements, his eyes unable to resist lingering on the big cat.

The old man stroked the big cat a few times and laughed, "It allows you to touch it."

The big cat's fur wasn't exactly smooth; it was rather rough, probably due to its age.

Xia Chuhe was too embarrassed to touch it for long. After experiencing the furry texture a few times, he let go.

She waited for the old man to talk about the Heavenly God Temple.

The old man brought up the topic of relocation—assuming the Meow Meow Legion would move to the Heavenly God Temple.

Not to mention that the members of the Meow Meow Legion are all mercenaries, each of them a formidable fighter.

Just look at how Ah Bao led the people to build the city; even when these mercenaries did the rough work, they were more hardworking and honest than others.

Not to mention, with the Meow Meow Legion here, how many cats will be missing?

He was planning to have mercenaries help him defend the city, do his work, and even pet cats when he was bored.

Just hearing the hypothetical scenario, Xia Chuhe was already overjoyed and his mind was filled with wild imagination.

The old woman was clearly not just hypothesizing; she was genuinely considering relocating half of her base to the vicinity of Taotie City and the Temple of the Heavenly God.

However, migration is conditional.

The area surrounding Taotie City and the Temple of the Heavenly God must be "clean," with nothing of Bru-related origin allowed. Manufacturing is forbidden, and even trading is prohibited.

The old man sighed, "I always thought only humans were addicted to drugs, but I never imagined cats..."

Xia Chuhe: "..."

Even if the old man didn't mention it, Xia Chuhe would still go to see Bru.

She had already given the person behind the Heavenly God Temple a good slap in the face.

In this world, very few people can touch a tiger's tail or pull its whiskers and escape unscathed. To escape unscathed, one must kill the tiger completely.

An elderly man and a young man reached an agreement on the relocation terms.

The old man slowly closed his eyes, and the big cat beside him also squinted wearily.

The surrounding blue sky and green grass slowly faded away, leaving only a bare artificial mountain in the room, with the ceiling just over two meters above it.

Xia Chuhe was startled and quickly waved his hand in front of the old man.

The old man remained motionless.

Xia Chuhe mustered his courage and touched the old man's neck, only to find that he had no pulse.

The cat next to him also left with the old man.

"Oh no, you don't have a grudge against these cat lovers, do you?" Dongchan said nervously. "The guild leader is dead, will this fall on your head?"

Xia Chuhe's heart pounded, but he said defiantly, "It's possible that you'll be the one to blame."
