Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1138: Time is of the essence

There was no cold wind or snow; all there was was a chill that headed deep into your bones.

This was Ye Zhongming’s first thought when he landed. With his current strength, he shivered when he faced such a cold.

He felt the struggle in his arms before he released it.

Gan Lan’s head was a little giddy.

No one knew how much she had done in the past dozens of hours. Even her good sister Mei Na didn’t.

Mei Na saw only that she had used her stamina and mental energy. She saw only the wounds on her body but didn’t see her persistence.

People who didn’t go through this cold wouldn’t know.

It was as if the cold wanted to freeze your soul. It would numb your body and freeze your mind.

Even after returning to the surface, it felt like thousands of blades sliced each inch of your skin. Gan Lan’s body shivered not only because of the cold but also because of the pain.

She recalled a phrase that she only saw in movies- Bone Poison.
She felt that as long as you spent time here, you would suffer from this poison. It would disappear as time went on, but before recovering, you had to suffer the pain every second.

But she held on. She wanted to tell Mei Na about it, but she knew that it would only cause her to worry. She came down time after time, not because she thought she could succeed. She just didn’t want failure to come so easily.

She wanted to try her best and hoped that luck would bless her so that she could find a way to solve the problem here.

This was the same as praying. When someone had no solution, they searched for a way to console themselves and keep some hope that a miracle could happen.

But the reality was cruel and crushed her dreams.

She knew that no matter how many times she came down, even if she brought everyone from Nalan Battle Squad in, it wouldn’t do anything.

It just didn’t work.

Ye Zhongming’s appearance gave her some hope, but this hope was as slim as before. It was as if this person didn’t know her, and he didn’t say anything when those people insulted her. This guy acted like he didn’t hear anything.

It didn’t seem like he wanted to help.

So when he carried her down, she was caught off guard.

Until the familiar cold hit her body, she finally came back ‘alive’.

“Did I agree? Why did you bring me down? You bosses don’t care about the thoughts of others. Should we people be your toys?”

Gan Lan exploded and pushed Ye Zhongming aside. Because she was emotional, her hair scattered, and the blanket on her fell to the ground to reveal a green armor.

But it was filled with cracks. There were a few dozen spots, and it would probably be destroyed soon.

Green armor was a really good item now. For Nalan Battle Squad, if this was not the only one, it was probably just one of a few.

Her explosion felt desperate; it was as if she was giving up. Although Gan Lan heard that Ye Zhongming would give them 10%, she wasn’t a kid and believed him.

To her, he was just using that method to get more for himself. Even if others agree, he would still take their portion. Bringing her down without her permission was proof of her guess.

She could even imagine what method he would use. He would let her die here and then kill Mei Na and the others. After that, he would be able to swallow the reward.

Since she would die sooner or later, then she wanted a good one. To scold the 10th-ranked expert in the country made it worth it.

After shouting, Gan Lan thought to herself.

Ye Zhongming looked coldly at her. He opened his palm, and two potions appeared.

“Drink it, and then take off your armor.”

Gan Lan opened her mouth and pointed at Ye Zhongming. Her face flushed red, and the cold didn’t chase her rage away.

“You, want to do it here?”

Ye Zhongming was stunned and burst into laughter, “Can we do it outside?”

“No!” Her expression twisted. She couldn’t understand his thoughts. Her previous good feelings for him disappeared.

“You think too much.” He looked past her at the snowland. He saw a corridor covered in thick ice. At least from where they were, he couldn’t see the end, but it shouldn’t be a straight line.

There were many holes of different sizes above and on the sides. The small ones were the size of a finger, and the large ones were the size of a washing basin. A pale blue mist told them that they would explode at any time.

At the entrance, 2 meters of land wasn’t sealed in ice. It was for survivors to have a place to lay their feet.

“Drink it. Don’t make me force it down your throat. My time is precious.”

Ye Zhongming tossed the potion to her. She struggled to grab it. Only when she grabbed it, did she come to her senses. She saw that the two potions were a healing potion and a mental energy recovery potion.

Although they were basic grades, they were precious enough. No one would use such a thing unless they were risking their lives.

Gan Lan realised that if this person wanted to do anything, he didn’t need to give her the potions unless he had a special fetish.

“What do you want to do?”

She held the potion. Although she calmed down, she was still suspicious.

Ye Zhongming finally lost patience with her. He charged at her, and she realized she had lost control. She was lying on his knee when she realized what was going on. Her armor was then removed!

Gan Lan screamed. The holes in the corridor spat because of that and scattered the mist on the corridor.

As if he wasn’t the one to take off her armor, Ye Zhongming tossed her aside and walked closer to the mist. He touched it and retracted his hand after a few seconds. He looked at his finger seriously as if he was looking like a beautiful lady.

A half-naked woman was covering her chest and looking at his back in anger.
