Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1869: Bloody region 50

”Those ranked between ten thousand and fifteen thousand could choose areas from Zone 21 to Zone 26. Those ranked between 5,000 and 10,000 could choose areas from Zone 27 to Zone 32. Those ranked between 3,000 and 5,000 could choose areas from Zone 33 to Zone 39. Those ranked between 1,000 and 3,000 could choose areas from Zone 40 to Zone 44. Those ranked between 500 and 1,000 could choose areas from Zone 45 to Zone 47. Those ranked between 100 and 500 could choose Zone 48. Those ranked between fifty and ninety-nine could choose Zone 49. Those ranked before fifty could choose Zone 50!”

Once this was announced, the newcomers below were completely polarized.

Those with lower rankings were overjoyed, as they had many more areas to move around in, and there were no experts to compete with them anymore—this referred to those top experts. As for those similar to themselves, they were not afraid of competition.

Those in the middle rankings felt somewhat indifferent. Although there were fewer areas to choose from, there was also less competition, so their points would not be significantly affected.

But those ranked at the top were not having it.

What did this mean? Only a few areas for them to choose? Everyone in the top hundred had fixed areas? Didn’t that mean they had to compete with each other?

They were all big consumers of points. How could the parasites or mutated lifeforms in the areas possibly meet the needs of all of them?

If they wanted to continue earning high points, they would inevitably have to kill each other! This was an indirect way of cleansing the top-ranked lives!

These individuals might not have been well-known before, but in the newcomer battlefield, they were absolutely the top-tier existences. They certainly did not want to end up with only a handful of survivors after such mutual slaughter.

Among the top-ranked were several from super races. At first, they were completely stunned because their races had never mentioned such a thing. They were not afraid of competition, but when it came to competing with others who had similar points, they were unwilling to bear the intensity and risks that came with it.
They had bright futures in their races and did not want to risk their lives here.

Faced with the tidal wave of opposition, Zizikabaʼs expression remained unmoved. He just said coldly, ”Silence! Additionally, each area will have an increased number of parasites and mutated lifeforms. In some of the newly added areas, the most powerful parasites we have found so far will appear. It is very dangerous. You’d better take care. Of course, their points are enough to make you forget the thrill of killing other newcomers.”

”Begin.”

For some reason, Ye Zhongming always felt that this time, Zizikaba seemed a bit off his game. His words lacked the sharpness they had before.

Numerous teleportation arrays appeared. Those ranked lower left first, heading joyfully to hunting grounds without experts. For them, this cycle was a brand new beginning.

Next were those in the middle rankings. They had more thoughts on their minds. With less external pressure, they began making various preparations. “

There was no other way. They were familiar with the methods of those previously ranked higher, so they just followed suit—either forming alliances or being ruthless.

When only about a thousand people remained, the pace noticeably slowed.

Everyone was very wary of each other.

There was no other way. Even though Zizikaba had mentioned that parasites offered high points, they would definitely be very dangerous. How could it compare to killing one of their own kind? They were all experts, true, but a sneak attack or something similar might not be all that difficult.

People left one after another. As if by agreement, only the top fifty remained, waiting for them in the brand new Zone 50.

”Don’t worry, everyone’s teleportation location is different,” said a person in charge of the teleportation array to these elite newcomers.

Ye Zhongming cursed inwardly. This rule was of no benefit to him at all.

In the team, only he and He were ranked in the top fifty. If the teleportation locations were the same, the two of them could look out for each other after teleporting one after the other.

But now it was impossible. They had to go one by one. Who knew how big Zone 50 was? How could the two of them reunite?

”Not leaving? Then proceed according to ranking!”

Zizikaba appeared. Seeing the caution and wariness of these last few people, he immediately scolded them and ordered them to leave, starting from the forty-ninth rank.

Everyone had no choice but to obey, leaving one by one.

Ye Zhongming and He were ranked next to each other. After discussing a way to find each other, He left first. When it was Ye Zhongming’s turn, he suddenly said to Zizikaba, who was beside the teleportation array, ”Did something happen?”

Zizikaba had not expected a newcomer to speak to him so suddenly. He knew well that these people had no fondness for him, the training camp director, and in fact, they even hated him. Given the chance, it wouldn’t be strange if they wanted to kill him.

Looking at this newcomer from Earth, he neither gave a definite answer nor a denial. He only said, ”Only by surviving can there be other things.”

This was the first time Ye Zhongming had seen this guy speak in a normal tone. Previously, his words had either been provocative and bizarre or cold and merciless. Ye Zhongming now had a completely new impression of him.

Entering the teleportation array, Ye Zhongming felt the world go dark, and then he arrived at a brand new scene.

Without a second thought, Ye Zhongming immediately activated his teleportation ability, moving away from his original location the instant he arrived. Before he could even see what was happening, he heard a series of sharp sounds behind him.

Along with a cold wind that followed him.

Ye Zhongming teleported again while simultaneously activating his Double Shadow skill, creating several shadow clones. Some blocked his body, while others landed in all directions before exploding, releasing mental shocks.

Under normal circumstances, Ye Zhongming’s actions would have been enough to break free from any entanglement. Even if it were the Aimusi team from before, a sudden move like this would have bought him at least a few seconds.

And a few seconds were enough for Ye Zhongming to do many things.

However, to his surprise, the attacks against him did not cease. Instead, they intensified!

A very faint buzzing sound came from the sky. Ye Zhongming immediately dove to the side, saving his teleportation ability for later.

An explosion occurred where he had just been. The sound and range were not large, but the intensity was high. The shockwave and heatwave made Ye Zhongming feel threatened.

His body was pushed further away. Before he even landed, two long swords stabbed from the side, perfectly aimed at his head and neck.

The Cloud Peak King did not panic. Without knowing what he had prepared, he simply slapped his leg with his hand, which was hanging by his side. A huge airflow was generated, instantly sending him more than ten meters away. Then, Ye Zhongming threw out some small black spheres with both hands. After landing on the ground, they immediately turned into black metal rods about a meter long, which began frantically shooting out cold light in all directions, trapping the attackers in place.

Once free, Ye Zhongming glanced back and, with a rough count, saw five or six people.

He knew that in this brand new Zone 50, the bloody slaughter had begun.
