Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1257: Try and you will know

That question caused the room to be silent.

Hong Xiang said, “Every period of time, demon monsters will invade our territory. This period differs. A long time has passed since they invaded. Now that they have all gone out, it should be similar. They want food.”

“You, I, and everyone outside are their food.”

In the long road of history, the Posthumous People and Saint Light Hall had been battling against the demon monsters.

Demon Monsters treated humans as their energy to evolve. Humans treated them as items to survive. They were each other’s food.

When humans were strong, they tried to conquer the demon monsters. Similarly, when the demon monsters were strong, they would attack the humans for food.

But recently, due to the poor Secret Realm situation, humans found adapting harder. Humans started to get weak, and they were in a downturn. They couldn’t gain an advantage in their battle against the demon monsters and could only defend themselves.

Now that they were attacking, the humans were sad and furious but weren’t surprised. Although they weren’t as intelligent as humans and didn’t have an organisational structure like humans, they were intelligent.

They would start a war when they sensed a chance.

Demon monsters weren’t humans. Levels were important; the stronger you became, the smarter you became. You had control over the weaker ones, and starting a war was much easier than being a human.
It had been long since the last invasion, so it wasn’t hard to imagine why they were attacking again.

“I think there are two possibilities.” The Saintess had considered this problem, so her thinking was clear.

“First, their numbers have exceeded what the Night Demon Plains can handle, so they are attacking humans to reduce their numbers. This is a way they reduce the problem of having too little living space. Or some of them need to evolve, and humans are their key to evolution, so they start this race war.”

This was something everyone could think about. This was also the main reason why they invaded in the past.

“Second one.” Her voice became unnatural, “Humans have no more level nine, and that level nine monster sensed it. It wants to conquer the humans.”

Lack of balance was the problem that humans were facing. They couldn’t restrict that level nine demon monster without a level nine presence. After it sensed that, it would naturally launch a war.

If possible, every race wanted to be the strongest in the space that they lived in and had no opposition.

“That monster won’t give up on such a good chance. Our Saint Hall had many records and guesses from previous Saint Fathers. They said that level nine might not be the limit. Lifeforms can continue to improve, but there isn’t a grade above nine, and they were all just called level nine. In truth, humans and demon monsters are working hard to get stronger. Especially after the space became unstable, everyone, including the Saint Father, was thinking of ways to break through the limit. To the Saint Father, that might mean getting out of the space and leaving this area.”

The room was really quiet. Everyone thought about what was above level nine, and they believed that there would be people stronger than level nine. After all, they had witnessed many magical things in the apocalypse.

Level nine represented the strongest, but it didn’t mean the end. Maybe it will turn into another type of lifeform when you reach a certain level. These were thoughts that were had during peacetime, but they weren’t proven.

But everyone was shocked by what the Saintess said.

Break through level nine, break through until you could leave this place.

Didn’t that mean… Shattering space?

Ye Zhongming and the others from Earth thought about it more in detail. Stronger than level nine, getting away from Earth and traveling the universe?

How strong would you be?

“Zhongming, are you thinking the same way as the Saintess?”

Ling Kun was the first to come back to his senses. He was level eight, and he only now had some understanding of space rules since he traveled from the Secret Realm to Earth. But to talk about getting to level nine, that would take a long time. Not to mention getting above level nine.

Ye Zhongming shook his head, “No, I don’t think it is fully that.”

En?

Everyone looked at him. Was there another reason?

Ye Zhongming pointed at the sky, “Saint Father knew this place was about to collapse. All of you knew; I also knew. There is no way that monster can’t sense it.”

“Since that is the case, will it think about starting a war to survive in this space?”

Hearing Ye Zhongming say that, the Saintess said, “You are saying…”

“En.” Ye Zhongming nodded, “I think one point you said is possible. It wants to break through and rely on its strength to break the restrictions and gain freedom.”

“Also, don’t forget that it has a simpler way to leave.”

Saint Light Hall and the Posthumous People looked at each other and understood what Ye Zhongming meant.

“But it can sense the space gate?” Xia Lei frowned. Saint Father knew because Ye Zhongming was noticed when his soul went to the Gate of Blessing. That made Saint Father pay attention to the Posthumous People.

But this level nine monster relied on his sense to confirm that the space gate existed.

“That is possible…”

Saintess came into contact with the Saint Father the most and she understood level nine people the most. Thinking about how lifeforms of that level has such an ability, she felt that Ye Zhongming was right.

“That is the reason I don’t agree to give up on the Secret Realm.” Ye Zhongming saw that everyone didn’t understand, “If they came for the space gate, then we might not need to give up on the Secret Realm. I might have a way for everyone to retreat to Earth in a better way, and we can still work around here.”

“How do we make sure?” Zai Li asked.

Ye Zhongming looked at his Secret Realm key. “We just need to try, and we will know.”
