Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 632: Evil underground city

Ye Zhongming stopped injecting mental energy when he heard the name. In that short ten seconds, the Roselle Cedar had grown to 20cm and the thickness of a finger. But that had consumed a tenth of his total mental energy.

It didnt look like much, but that was terrifying because Ye Zhongming had a huge amount of mental energy. So much energy and the plant only grew 20cm. He estimated that if he used all his mental energy, the plant wouldnt be able to grow to maturity.

Moreover, the Roselle Cedar should be very tall. The bomb shelter was at most 5-6 meters tall and was not enough for this fellow to grow.

Ye Zhongming did learn something apart from its name. Plants he nurtured would have a connection with him. This connection wasnt as clear as his crafted equipment, but they could hear his thoughts and feel some things.

He confirmed that these seeds were from the plant that the Linhai City people call the Death King Tree, meaning that the tree should be the Roselle Cedar.

As for its ability, Ye Zhongming had no idea yet. He felt like this thing gave him a sense of danger, but he didnt know where it came from and didnt know what the strong thing Old Jia mentioned you could craft this into referred to.

Just when he was studying this sprout, there were footsteps outside. Ye Zhongming placed it into his space and saw the trio enter.

Brother Ye, have you been here the whole time?

Ye Zhongming waved, I went to take a walk.

The three of them sat down. Ah Hai found out about Ye Zhongmings promise to Yang Yixi, and his gaze towards him was very friendly and hopeful.

Brother Ye, I told the boss about you and guaranteed you. He agrees for you to remain in the camp, but

Yang Yixi looked troubled. He paused before saying, But, boss said that you have to Do some work.

Yang Yixi guessed that Ye Zhongming had a way to get him out, so he brought him here. Ye Zhongming also agreed to bring them out. But now that he had to make this person take a risk, he felt uneasy, and his words were hesitant.

Ye Zhongming acknowledged and wasnt too surprised.

If a stranger came to Cloud Peak, he would be wary and probably use this method. He would give his subordinate face while also testing this outsider.

Carefulness was always correct during the apocalypse.

Moreover, even if this boss didnt find Ye Zhongming, he would ask to meet him.

Our Linhai survivors lack food and water. We cant eat the tree zombies; they dont give crystals to spin the wheels. So to survive and evolve, we can only hunt the mutated lifeforms whose numbers were dropping or find food left in the city previously.

Yang Yixi started to describe what the boss wanted him to do, and he also slowly understood the bad situation in the underground city.

Although the ground was controlled by the tree zombies such that the survivors didnt dare to head up to land, at certain times, they had to go. For example, when they searched for food and water.

The city was closed, and there werent too many mutated lifeforms. This was fatal for survivors. Not only could they not get the food they provided, but they couldnt get crystals to spin the wheel to get food and water.

At the start, this situation only affected their evolution speed. But after a year, it affected their survivor.

So, in the recent two months, survivors went up more often to search for food. They even started to explore the dangerous regions where the Death King Trees main body was at.

This resulted in false prosperity in the underground world of Linhai City.

Too much food, water, crystals, and potions It was as if everything was good. But what about areas that they didnt pay much attention to? More people died and the resources available were reduced. The Death King Tree also absorbed more survivors and got stronger.

Now, the cons of what they did was being shown. People became more powerless when they headed to the surface. Many squads reduced their operations to maintain their strength and started to attack the weaker humans and factions.

Everyone realized this point. As the resources in the city are reduced, the underground world would be washed first.

Every faction had a nervous relationship with each other, and they were trying hard to survive. But in the end, there was only one way. To reduce the number of people enjoying the resources and extend the happiness of a few people to try to find a way to solve the problem of the death city.

Under such a situation, Yang Yixis current faction-- Surging Motion Battle Squad, was also fighting for survival.

This time, their goal was a level three wheel. They didnt want the three-star potion but another reward, a water purifier.

Their previous purifier was damaged, and the people here were about to run out and die of thirst.

But the wheels were on the surface, and the one with that reward was near the core region. There were many tree zombies there. Not only that, the underground was filled with evil. If news of the battle squad heading out was exposed, the other factions might add some drama and rob them. They might even draw tree zombies over to wipe you out.

This was the cruel fight for space, and there was no room for error.

Under such a context, Ye Zhongming was asked to fight with them.

Actually, what Yang Yixi didnt say that to prove Ye Zhongmings friendliness, Mao Ying, Ah Hai and he took out many things. Rather than say they were doing it to get out of the city, they had already tied themselves together with Ye Zhongming.

If not, the boss wouldnt trust a stranger who appeared out of nowhere.

It is midnight; we will head out in the morning. The tree zombies are affected in the light and their strength will reduce.

Seeing that Ye Zhongming agreed without hesitation, Ah Hai relaxed. Yang Yixi and Mao Ying also went to rest for the battle tomorrow.

After confirming that they were sleeping, Ye Zhongming headed out. He found an empty corner. There was a water tunnel from the ground but it was sealed and no one could enter from it.

Ye Zhongming planted the Roselle Cedar here and used the nurture skill to force it to grow. When it was around 30cm, Ye Zhongming left.
