Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1881: All chaos (2)

When the battlefield was filled only with novices, they didnʼt think much of it and could even agree to Ye Zhongmingʼs ʼI Winʼ plan.

They could mature here, formally beginning to step onto a development path similar to those of countless Cosmic races.

Afterward, in their hearts, they would strive for this plan.

This wasnʼt betraying their races; it was what Ye Zhongming had agreed with them beforehand.

But now the situation changed suddenly. Their alliance did not mean the races behind them would agree to an alliance. The grievances between these races were complicated.

When the news came down that each race could dispatch three warriors, Jie Kui and Helsky decided to go find Ye Zhongming immediately.

These two: one was from the Star-Eye Clan, like Ye Zhongming; the other was originally from Earth. The ʼI Winʼ plan was the ʼEarth Winsʼ plan; he couldnʼt not know and naturally agreed the most.

Neither of them had any conflict with Ye Zhongming; in fact, to some extent, they were a community of interest.

Their perspective on the problem was entirely from Ye Zhongmingʼs side.

Without external forces, even if many people had thoughts in their hearts, they would suppress them, at least keeping a wait-and-see attitude.
But when the aura warriorʼs clansmen appeared before them, they realized that many things were already beyond their control.

It was like dominoes. Constantly, warriors who had descended from above found their clansmen and were led away.

There was no other way; everyone was red-named.

In the end, only Jie Kui, Helsky, and one other warrior remained.

A warrior from the Luther Race who had descended.

Yes, that very race that had once tried to recruit Ye Zhongming during the Bright Water Realm trial to become their spokesperson.

Helsky was actually still their spokesperson. This guy had been deceiving everyone before, but it was considered a white lie. Keeping some things back was also a form of self-protection.

This warrior found Helsky, but Helsky didnʼt want to go back. This nearly open defiance made the warrior very dissatisfied; he even wanted to take this guy away directly at one point.

But Helskyʼs words made him hesitate.

Helsky said: ”Taking me away is undoubtedly to get more points and a better ranking. But is our Luther Race truly powerful? Can we really compete with those major races? Even you, or the other two descended warriors, how confident are you of defeating warriors from major races?”

”The reason youʼre so anxious to take me is just because my ranking gives you hope. You can continue striving from a good foundation. That way, even if the final ranking drops somewhat from my current one, youʼll have completed the task.”

”But what does that prove? It proves we are still the same as before: mediocre, accomplishing nothing!”

”Let me ask bluntly, what level is my performance among past novices?”

”Very good? Thatʼs right. It shows that my potential is very good. But do you know how I achieved this potential?”

”Right, it was by gambling alongside the person currently ranked first.”

”I want to go find him now. The more people gather around him, the safer he is, and his potential will gradually be unleashed until it shakes the entire universe.”

”Letʼs gamble. Even if we lose in the end, itʼs just me dying. At worst, you and the other two warriors die. It wonʼt significantly impact the clan. But if we win? Then what will happen to me? To you? To the Luther Race? Using a not-too-large stake to gamble for great benefits—I think we must place this bet.”

”What do you think?”

So the warrior was persuaded. He decided to follow Helsky and see.

Perhaps before they found that guy named Ye Zhongming, he would already be dead?

………………………………

He took out some water and fed a little to Ye Zhongming.

Yes, the current Cloud Peak King was powerless, too lazy to even move a finger.

”No need to be so wary. Do you really think I would attack you?” After feeding Ye Zhongming water, He patted him somewhat angrily.

She could sense that the man beside her was far from as weak as he appeared. Perhaps he had been earlier, but not now.

She was utterly amazed at this personʼs recovery ability.

He was such a monster!

That ability earlier must have exceeded his physical limits, causing great damage, or at least a heavy burden, to his body. But after just a short while, he had recovered considerably. He felt that Ye Zhongming should still have some fighting power left.

”Not really. The benefits gained from following me are much better than what youʼd get from killing me.” Ye Zhongming smiled awkwardly.

He had indeed been guarding against He just now. His points and the equipment on him were really quite tempting. If He killed him, it would be enough for her to securely sit in first place, difficult for others to surpass.

He was somewhat sure He wouldnʼt have other thoughts, but the world was not certain. Ye Zhongming had to be a little cautious. Who would have thought this womanʼs senses were so sharp?

The ability Ye Zhongming used earlier was called ʼRing Mountain Curse.ʼ

This was the fourth ability granted to him by the Mountain King Crown. The first three were:

Shrinking the Earth to an Inch (teleportation ability);

Feedback Force (providing power storage);

Mountain Press Shadow (that mountain giant shadow).

This ability had been unlocked the moment Ye Zhongming obtained the Mountain King Crown. Unfortunately, he was unable to use it.

After evolving to level nine, his physique could be considered one of the top on Earth. But even so, the energy it contained didnʼt meet this abilityʼs requirements.

If used, Ye Zhongming would lose his life.

But Ye Zhongming had to use this ability in the situation earlier. He was gambling, betting that since arriving here, his strength had increased, coincidentally reaching the ʼpassing line.ʼ

Although it was a gamble, Ye Zhongming actually had some confidence. He knew better how his strength had changed. Moreover, he had taken the medicine He made—the Advancement Pill—which compensated for his physical shortcomings.

Even if he failed, because the element spirits were his safety net, Ye Zhongming wouldnʼt die, but the losses would certainly be severe.

Fortunately, he won the gamble. ʼRing Mountain Curseʼ succeeded. He wasnʼt in too bad shape, just extremely weak. For a few minutes, he truly had no combat power. Luckily, his bad luck seemed to have disappeared after being found by that half-beast. Until now, they hadnʼt encountered any other enemies.

After resting briefly, the two stood up again. The time for the next red-name refresh was approaching; soon, someone would know they were here.

But they had only taken a few steps when both stopped together because they discovered that all the descended warriors now had their positions displayed!

And among them, three green dots representing their own side were located less than a hundred meters away in a straight line!
