Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 453: Competition Death Wheelʼs 4th trick

“B Grade Treasure Box (Small).”

When those few words appeared, Ye Zhongming thought back to the boxes he got from the Gate of Sacrifice. Most of these loot boxes seemed differentiated by A, B, C, and D.

He opened it, and the box disappeared. A white jade appeared in Ye Zhongming’s hand.

“Spirit Qilin Pendant. Ability 1: Space Forcefield, form a magnetic field to cause metal ranged attacks to divert.”

“Ability 2: Space charge. The pendant will charge when it is unused. The longer the time, the higher the defense.”

Defensive equipment?

Ye Zhongming’s eyes lit up. His depressed mood from the previous broken equipment was improved.

It was much harder to get defensive equipment than attack ones. Better defensive equipment was even rarer. Although this pendant was only silver grade, its two abilities were decent. The first was blocking, which was important in the future. Five years later, each person would have a piece of defensive equipment that helped to avoid easy deaths. Sometimes, it wasn’t the stronger person that lived longer. A low-level sniper with a good weapon could often kill a high-level evolved.

Ability 2 was the reason why Ye Zhongming liked this equipment. This equipment could block a fatal ranged attack if the charging time was long enough!

Of course, Ye Zhongming saw its weakness. One couldn’t suffer from many attacks. If not, the defensive ability would be consumed until it was useless.

But thinking about it, without that weakness, these two abilities would mean that this equipment was green or even blue grade. It wouldn’t be silver.

He wanted to give it to Park Xiuying, but she declined. Most of Cloud Peak’s resources leaned towards her, so she felt embarrassed. Moreover, the others felt like the person in Cloud Peak who needed defensive equipment the most was Ye Zhongming.

Ye Zhongming had no choice but to wear it. But he gave that ring to Park Xiuying; at least it gave her the ability to protect herself.

Ye Zhongming picked up the third piece of equipment excitedly.

Stable Statue?

“Stable Statue: Steek King: Form a Steel King statue after use. One can activate it and revive the Steel King to battle. One needs demon crystals to activate and maintain it.”

Ye Zhongming understood the rough use of this thing, but he didn’t know the number of crystals needed or if there were level restrictions. All of this would be solved when he used it in the future.

This challenge ended after they got the three rewards. Before returning to the wheel mountain, Brainchild and Yelow Ball sniffed the level-seven corpse. Yellow Ball ignored it after, but the Brainchild didn’t care and started to eat.

It was hungry when Red Hair came to Cloud Peak to help. The defense battle slightly helped his hunger, but now this fellow could fill his stomach up… Although, the meat was sour.

Cloud Peak members couldn’t adapt to such scenes. Fortunately, the time was up, and they were teleported.

Ye Zhongming looked around and saw that the other factions had completed the challenge. But their situation was much worse than Cloud Peak; fewer people left.

There was a past experience, so they weren’t fools and chose the highest difficulty. It wasn’t a surprise that this was the outcome.

But obviously, they looked at Ye Zhongming with bad expressions.

After passing the test, everyone didn’t know if they would get rewards like the last time, so they waited with baited breaths.

The wheel didn’t let them wait for long, and it started to spin.

Six wheels rose.

Job wheel, which was the colorful wheel. What gave them a headache was that this wheel was special. There were only two regions: the colored Region and the black Region.

Everyone knew that the black Region was the Region of death, so the twin-colored wheel depressed everyone.

When they faced the colored wheel, it was a hard choice to select who to spin it. Many debates and scams occurred because of that decision. So it was no wonder that they felt depressed looking at this wheel.

“Reward time, job.”

“Each faction has ten times to spin; you can’t give it up. The number of people spinning must be the same as the round of spins you are on. It is a failure if you don’t have enough energy to spin.”

Your sister!

Many people cursed when they heard that notification! Was this a rewarding time? This was a time of death! This was a time to play with people! They were going to play them to death.

Ten spins meant that five times would hit the black Region. If the people changed, they needed to send 55 people. This meant 20 deaths; if they weren’t lucky, it was normal to get 30-40.

Also, they had to spin ten times; it would be a failure if they didn’t have enough crystals…

Think about it: if people brought many crystals to spin and died, they would all disappear. What would happen to those behind? This forced them to split the crystals.

Everyone may know the number of crystals needed for one spin after the first time, but what would happen to the first person if they did that? Who would take this risk?

This meant that the leader would force someone to sacrifice. Under such a circumstance, when they didn’t know when a battle would start again, how would they solve the problem of unity?

The few faction leaders were in deep thought.

Ye Zhongming was expressionless, but he was delighted deep down. He had the Basic Elimination Technique, so he loved this reward. This meant ten free job scrolls for Cloud Peak.

“Who without a job is willing to spin it? The person will get scrolls in advance. Those who didn’t get allocated would also get a good reward.”

Xia Lei thought about it. She spoke up before Ye Zhongming could.

The Cloud Peak members were stunned, and then they were in silence. After all, this concerned their lives, and they couldn’t be rash.

Ye Zhongming didn’t understand, but he immediately understood. His gaze towards her became more gentle.

Xia Lei did that to avoid the problem of unfair distribution of rewards and also to make them more courageous. But the repercussions would be that if the ten times all succeeded, everyone would guess something was up. People would ask questions and be unhappy. Xia Lei took the lead in protecting Ye Zhongming’s perfect image.

This woman showed her skill and her loyalty to Ye Zhongming through that.

The core members were also impressed by her sacrifice.

Under such emotions, the first faction chosen received a notification.
