Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Lancelot turned and left without hesitation, but before departing, he said something to Zhang Yi with profound meaning.

”Don’t be too pleased too early. You’ll pay for what you’ve done.”

Zhang Yi furrowed his brows slightly, then smiled as he raised his gun toward him.

”Threatening me at a time like this? Are you an idiot?”

Lancelot’s expression immediately shifted, and he accelerated his escape without a second thought.

”Bang!”

A streak of black light pierced through the void, shooting straight at Lancelot.

”Shield of Guardians, Kangel!”

Lancelot instantly summoned his guardian shield to block in front of him.

Although he was sent flying back with brutal force, he used the momentum to flee.

Zhang Yi watched his retreating figure. ”This guy’s gotten stronger than before! Looks like the Essence he obtained gave him a significant power boost.”

With that, Zhang Yi turned his gaze to Gao Changkong in another direction.

Gao Changkong quickly raised both hands, grinning. ”Don’t misunderstand—I’m just here to watch the show!”

”Watching the show can get people killed.”

Zhang Yi’s eyelids drooped as he spoke in a cold tone.

”Better not be like this. Even if you kill me, it probably won’t do you much good. Don’t let someone else swoop in and take advantage.”

As Gao Changkong spoke, his eyes gestured toward the direction Lancelot had fled.

Though Zhang Yi had just been through a fierce battle, he was still more than capable of killing another person.

But doing so might indeed leave him open to a sneak attack from the other.

Not to mention that above the sky, the battle between the Burial Master and Prince Anrit was still far from over. He had to conserve enough strength to escape this place.

”Gao Changkong, I have one of your people here. How about a trade?”

Zhang Yi said calmly to Gao Changkong.

Hearing this, Gao Changkong’s eyes flickered with rare hesitation.

”Batu is in your hands?”

Zhang Yi nodded. ”That’s right. I was planning to kill him, but he said you’d offer a generous ransom for his life. Now it’s up to you to show your sincerity. Otherwise, he’ll still die.”

A sinister grin curled at the corner of Zhang Yi’s mouth.

”I’ll send him to Blizzard City. Guess how Old Zhu and his crew would treat him?”

Gao Changkong let out a bitter laugh.

”Let me see him first.”

Zhang Yi had Mu Yan open the Shadow Space without hesitation, bringing out Batu, who was bound tightly.

Confirming Batu was still alive, Gao Changkong breathed a massive sigh of relief.

Chen Xiaozheng was dead too. Now, only Gu Man and Batu remained from his old team.

He thought for a moment, then pulled out a transparent glass bottle from his person, inside which a yellow gem shimmered with light.

”I’ll trade this shard of God’s Essence for his life. How about it?”

Zhang Yi glanced at it. This God’s Essence shard was about one-third of a full piece. While it wasn’t enough to push a Transcendent from Delta-class to Epsilon-class, it could still greatly enhance their potential.

Combined with the full God’s Essence he already had, that meant his team could gain another Epsilon-class and one quasi-Epsilon-class Transcendent.

”This deal sounds reasonable.”

Zhang Yi had no reason to refuse. He didn’t think much of Batu’s Essence anyway, so he made the exchange with Gao Changkong without hesitation.

”So, next, we—”

Before Gao Changkong could finish, a deafening explosion rang in his ears.

Both of them looked up toward the sky. They couldn’t see anything, only sensing two terrifyingly immense forces locked in a deathmatch.

The battle grew more intense, and the two combatants could no longer control their power. The leaked energy began to devastate the Nash Kingdom. The cities on the upper two layers had already been blasted into ruins!

The overwhelming power and suffocating pressure filled Zhang Yi and the others with deep dread.

At their current level, they were absolute top-tier among humanity. But before these two, they seemed pathetically powerless.

Gao Changkong and Lancelot had already prepared to retreat.

If the Burial Master lost, they would leave this place without looking back.

Only Zhang Yi stared grimly at the sky above.

Gao Changkong and Lancelot could run, but he absolutely could not just walk away.

Because if the Burial Master fell, Prince Anrit would surely head to the surface.

And when that happened, what would Prince Anrit do to the human race that had destroyed his kingdom?

Without a doubt, a bloody massacre!

As things stood across the entire Huaxia Kingdom, there might not be anyone capable of matching Prince Anrit in power. Perhaps only that mysterious Houtu from Shengjing could stop him.

Zhang Yi didn’t dare gamble.

He couldn’t allow anything to disrupt his peaceful life.

With that thought, Zhang Yi pondered for a long time before making a decision in his heart.

”Shua!”

His figure flickered and vanished, teleporting straight toward the dome above.

His Spatial Shifting now had a range of 3,500 meters. After several consecutive shifts, he reached the surface.

Estimating by distance, the Nash Kingdom was located at least 30,000 meters below the surface. No wonder a special 【Gate】 was required to find it.

But for Zhang Yi, spatial issues were no problem at all.

A biting cold sensation hit him.

It wasn’t a physical feeling, but rather the excitement rising in his heart at the sight of the snow-covered earth once more.

Standing atop a great snowy mountain, Zhang Yi used his smart system to send a message from the Roof of the World to the Blizzard City headquarters in the Jiangnan Region.

”Hey, Old Zhu, it’s Zhang Yi!”

Zhu Zheng received Zhang Yi’s call and answered before the ringtone could sound a second time.

”Zhang Yi, this is Zhu Zheng. What’s the matter?”

Zhang Yi spoke with a grave expression. ”I want to deploy one Love of Death.”

He stated his request directly, and hearing this, Zhu Zheng’s face also turned serious.

The Love of Death was currently the ultimate trump card relied upon by the world’s major superpowers.

Without such weapons, their ability to restrain Epsilon-class Transcendents would be greatly diminished.

Even the world’s extraordinary Epsilon-class fighters would change color when faced with a superweapon like the Love of Death.

Except for a very few individuals with special abilities—like Zhang Yi, who could temporarily seal himself in another dimension—every other carbon-based lifeform would be reduced to ashes under that utterly terrifying explosion.

And that was the best method Zhang Yi could think of to deal with Prince Anrit!

Even with 30,000 ability index points, after a battle with the Burial Master, taking one Love of Death blast would definitely kill him!

”I need to know—what exactly is going on?”

Zhu Zheng’s expression was unusually grave. He rose from his chair and asked Zhang Yi word by word.

Even if it was Zhang Yi asking, deploying a Love of Death required Zhu Zheng to act with extreme caution.
