Apocalypse Gachapon
Chapter 1487: Limitless Aerial Mines and Royal Water Ghost VineYe Zhongming symbolically waved his hand in response to his subordinates.
The results of the battle were indeed significant. In an extremely short amount of time, they had managed to kill two level-eight monsters and hundreds of level-seven ones. If this achievement were brought to the national stage, it would undoubtedly leave people stunned.
However, Ye Zhongming knew that this wasn’t due to his ability to kill so many powerful enemies quickly. Instead, it was largely due to the advantage of their equipment.
Two gold-grade bullets and hundreds of blue and green-grade bullets represented a considerable fortune. Working with Ye Zhongming, the micro-engraver had spent a year and consumed countless precious materials and potions to produce just eight gold-grade bullets. If these were sold on the market, they would be exorbitantly expensive.
Thus, this battle was more a testament to the power of their equipment.
With Ye Zhongming quickly clearing out the descendants of the Nine-Winged Crow within a kilometer, the battle entered a brief lull. Apart from the tens of thousands of monsters still entangled with the zombie army, the gravel ground was now devoid of life.
The ground was littered with layers of monster corpses, occasionally interspersed with the remains of Cannibal Flowers and traces of Cloud Peak’s traps.
Even though the apocalypse had been ongoing for over five years, and many of Cloud Peak’s warriors had experienced brutal battles like the zombie siege and the defense of the Imperial City, the scene before them was still deeply shocking.
The thick scent of blood made the battle beasts within the Cloud Peak formation restless and stirred a bloodthirsty mood among the evolved.
This, perhaps, was the nature of war in the apocalypse. Once it became inevitable, it could only be described as brutal and relentless.The voices of core members occasionally rang out, using their own methods to calm or motivate their subordinates, preparing for the upcoming battle.
Ye Zhongming took the opportunity to recover his stamina and mental energy. The real battle had yet to begin.
Occasionally, Ye Zhongming would glance toward the mountain. The churning black clouds told him that the battle there was still ongoing. Due to the energy fluctuations, the Battle Contribution Badge couldn’t contact Guang Yao, but given the current situation, it seemed that Shadow had succeeded.
This also meant that the loyal warrior who had been severely injured and disabled for Cloud Peak, who had willingly become an experimental subject, had already sacrificed himself.
Ye Zhongming just didn’t know how many more such warriors would die before this battle was over.
With the help of Li Qiang’s shooting squad, the monsters entangled with the zombie army were quickly wiped out. Only about ten thousand zombies remained, all of them high-level. From what Ye Zhongming could see, they were mostly level five and above, with some level six and seven and even a level eight Zombie Ape protecting the Brain Child.
Although the Brain Child could control zombies, it wasn’t abused. The number it could control was limited. If too many were lost, as was the case now, it would be unable to replenish them quickly, significantly reducing its self-protection capabilities.
Watching its subordinates die one after another, the Brain Child was heartbroken, but it had no choice. It had to obey orders because Red Hair and Ye Zhongming could kill it.
After this batch of monsters was eliminated, many people emerged from the Cloud Peak battle formation, carrying buckets of glass containers. They rushed toward the large pit and poured the contents inside.
These were strong acids crafted by Candy. Once poured in, they immediately began corroding the monster corpses, leaving the magic crystals unharmed.
The pit, which had been nearly filled with corpses, was now transformed into an acid lake several meters deep.
But that wasn’t all. Ye Zhongming scattered some specially treated seeds into the acid. Upon contact, they began to grow madly, quickly turning into dense, dark green plants.
Li Qiang and the others looked over and saw that these plants had only stems and leaves covered with sharp thorns. Each stem and leaf was very long and densely packed, growing on top of the strong acid.
A pungent smell caused Li Qiang and his men to retreat. Although evolved had strong resistance to poison, this stuff looked dangerous.
“Ye Zhongming, what about me? What about me?” The Brain Child immediately understood that Ye Zhongming planned to abandon the zombie army.
“Jump over yourself or die over there,” Ye Zhongming replied irritably. He knew the Brain Child was just putting on an act—many of its subordinates had exceptional jumping abilities.
“You said it!” The Brain Child issued an order, and the zombie army immediately turned and began leaping toward Cloud Peak’s position. Li Qiang and Ye Zhongming retreated slightly, and in the blink of an eye, nearly ten thousand zombies had jumped over. On the other side, several thousand zombies without jumping abilities were left behind, unwillingly trying to circle around. However, that would take some time.
As they dispersed, the field of view opened up, revealing the largest group of monsters, which had already crossed the swamp and entered the gravel ground.
“Keep your subordinates in check,” Ye Zhongming said as he approached the Brain Child, leaping onto the shoulder of the Zombie Ape. The level-eight monster instinctively threw a punch at him.
Ye Zhongming didn’t dodge. Instead, he met the punch with one of his own.
Although Ye Zhongming was tall for a human male, his fist was still relatively small. On the other hand, the Zombie Ape’s fist was the size of several Ye Zhongmings. The two fists collided like a pencil tip hitting the bottom of a soda bottle.
The result was that the Zombie Ape let out a pained grunt, its fist and arm being knocked aside, while Ye Zhongming only swayed slightly.
In terms of strength, Ye Zhongming was a human-shaped monster.
Of course, he was a monster in other aspects as well.
“Stop, stop, stop! Are you trying to kill my Big A?” the Brain Child shouted from the side, urgently commanding the Zombie Ape and its other subordinates to cease their foolish actions.
Earlier, while perched on the Zombie Ape’s shoulder, the Brain Child witnessed Ye Zhongming single-handedly killing many high-level monsters. Although it didn’t show it on the outside, it was astonished.
It had always known that Ye Zhongming could kill it, but it hadn’t realized how easily he could do so. To be honest, with Ye Zhongming’s job, high-level sniper rifle, and gold-grade bullets, it wouldn’t even be able to dodge such an attack. For the Brain Child, whose main body was fragile, failing to dodge meant certain death.
Thus, its fear of Ye Zhongming had now reached unprecedented levels.
“Those tall ones will serve as our shooting platforms. The rest will block the front of the pit,” Ye Zhongming ordered the Brain Child.
The Brain Child didn’t dare disobey and immediately instructed its subordinates to comply. Zombies over three meters tall moved to the rear, standing about a hundred meters behind the pit, while the rest remained at the edge, ready to intercept any monsters that tried to jump over.
