Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1338: Represent

As the sky got darker, Xingzhou City slowly calmed down.

Cloud Peak’s troops retreated a few dozen miles away and set up camp on the few barren hills.

Campfires were lit. Along with a few equipment and pearls they got from the wheel to provide light, this place was bright as day.

The thick trees were used as fences around the camp. A simple fortress with a gate and watch towers was then built.

These weren’t much for evolved and they could build it in a few hours.

Behind the fences was Cloud Peak’s show of technology. Black crystal cannons or Violent Lightning Turrets stood there, giving off a dangerous aura. Many lifeforms didn’t dare to get close.

The Xingzhou City battle had come to an end with Cloud Peak’s total victory.

No level eight lifeform was left after Ye Zhongming killed the Nether Wolf with the Bone Shattering Staff. Xingzhou City also lost its leader, and the remaining half of the city was lost.

Facing Cloud Peak’s thick defense line, ranged weapons, and ranged forces, as well as Yangos, who had received some healing and was like a moving cannon. There was also Ye Zhongming in perfect form and Death King Tree; there was nothing other lifeforms could do.

The Xingzhou City natives couldn’t cause any actual damage to Cloud Peak’s formation.
Especially when Death King Tree, Ye Zhongming, and Red Hair started using their skills and ranged weapons to kill the level seven lifeforms, many others were terrified, and their last bit of hope collapsed.

This chaos started to spread. Ye Zhongming and the core members also organized a few raids, which accelerated the process.

Although the battle lasted long, and several mutated lifeform groups from around the area came over, their numbers weren’t a threat. Cloud Peak also had information on them, and when they saw signs of them, they sent battle squads to attack.

They didn’t seek to destroy them, just to chase them away.

The battle ended before night, and a few groups of mutated lifeforms were still disturbing Cloud Peak’s formation. But their goal was reached. After cleaning up the battlefield, they started to retreat.

In the past, this process wouldn’t be so quick, but as the number of people increased, along with the fact that they only wanted crystals and high-level materials, each person just had to be in charge of a few dozen corpses.

On a hill at the center was a giant bonfire. Ye Zhongming and the core members on duty sat here. Around them were the leaders of the Posthumous People and the other Ying City factions.

There was a huge pot on the bonfire. People knew that this was the Water and Fire Pot. A cooking tool that many people envied.

A bone broth boiled inside. After adding some vegetables and condiments, it gave off a fragrance that made the tense warriors drool.

Of course, the bone broth couldn’t attract the battle squad leaders who were used to good food. Their gazes were on the mountain of crystals and materials.

This was the first time many people saw so many crystals.

Many evolved knew that the value of the materials wasn’t any lesser than the crystal. Each lifeform only had one crystal, but they also had many usable materials. Each of them would be valuable to someone who needed them.

The broth was ready. The female guards warrior scooped it and gave each person a bowl.

Everyone gulped it down, but their gazes still glanced at the two valuable mountains.

“Thank you everyone for today. Tabulate the losses and record what compensation you need. Cloud Peak will hand it down based on needs and fairness.”

Ye Zhongming finished his soup and passed the bowl to the female warrior beside him.

His voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear.

On the side, Yellow Ball laid on the group and closed his eyes. His injuries were mostly okay. Its passive ability and Cloud Peak’s medical equipment helped heal Yangos and itself.

Many people said different things, but most were about how they knew that Boss Ye wouldn’t treat them badly.

Ye Zhongming nodded. He did treat the evolved that got injured or sacrificed for Cloud Peak well.

“Everyone knows that Cloud Peak came to hunt for demon crystals. Thanks to all of you. On top of the payment we agreed on, we will pay 10% more.”

This caused everyone to cheer.

Cloud Peak was very generous in this regard. The payment was high—with 10 extra percent, it was quite a lot. Moreover, a 10% increase for all the factions was also a sizeable amount.

“But we will pay it in the form of evolution potions and other things apart from crystals. I hope you don’t mind.”

Cloud Peak’s goal was to get demon crystals. So naturally, they wouldn’t hand these crystals out.

The other battle squads understood.

They needed everything, be it Cloud Peak’s equipment or other things like scrolls.

“There is also one more thing, which are these materials.” Cloud Peak pointed at the spoils.

“I have kept those I needed. I plan to do this with the remaining.”

Everyone listened attentively.

“If you have anything you want or need, I will sell it to you cheaply. Of course, it will be in terms of demon crystals.”

“I will let the rest of you help take charge of the rest.”

They looked at each other and didn’t know what he meant.

“You don’t have to pay me money, and you can take these materials to sell at any place. As for the amount you sell it for, I don’t care. After selling, you just need to pay me a fixed price. Don’t worry; the price I pay is lower than the market price.”

A simple sentence stunned everyone before all of them had a look of joy on their faces.
