Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1360: One fist

There were naturally nobles in Scarbi City and in the territory. This surprised Ye Zhongming.

Of course, they weren’t called nobles, but after Ye Zhongming understood what they were, they were the same as nobles.

Initially, when the city was built, the city committee controlled everything. Freedom Territory committee members managed upwards, and the city committee managed downwards.

Of course, the latter just gave themselves benefits.

The committee members had the highest status in the city. After a long time, they formed giant families.

Committees were lifelong membereships, but that would definitely lead to conflicts. Some committee members would be alienated, so the list of members would change after some period of time.

The alienated families were mostly swallowed, but some stubbornly survived and slowly formed their own factions.

For some reason, these people couldn’t be wiped out, and thus, they became special people in the city.

When they got strong, the committee members were forced to split some power to them. Thus, a new noble layer appeared.

Cooperation and conflict often had to do with interests. When both sides accepted the power split, they stopped competing and would mostly choose to work together. They would have disagreements, but they wouldn’t openly fight. They had to ensure the city was under their control and their territories wouldn’t be destroyed in such a fight.
The noble layer was thus accepted and slowly formed a unique group.

After many years, these people formed a layer of power in Freedom Territory.

The Xuancun Family the commander mentioned had an ancestor who was a committee member. He was even the head. In a power struggle, he was alienated, but as his family was huge and powerful, they became nobles.

Such a family with a long history was sometimes a living history.

So, when the commander said those words, Ye Zhongming believed him.

Of course, he didn’t go himself and brought the commander there, too.

With this person as a protecting talisman, the city guards would have no trouble with him. He would also be able to easily meet this noble family and see the dairy.

The commander held his broken arm and stumbled to the Xuancun Family along with Ye Zhongming. As the city guardʼs leader, he was a huge figure in Scarbi City. When the people saw him, they naturally went to inform their master.

In a short while, a spirited old man appeared before them. Both sides greeted each other, and the Xuancun family knew why they had come.

He looked at the commander’s arm suspiciously and had many questions. But he didn’t ask anything. The difference in identity meant that some things weren’t to be asked face up; if not, it would cause awkward misunderstandings.

“Look at the dairy, this…”

Xuancun found it hard. It wasn’t that the dairy was important but because nobles would hide some things and treat them as precious things. They would do so even if they didn’t know why it was valuable.

They wanted to have a sense of mystery and distance to make their family look more outstanding to others.

His hesitation wasn’t because he treated the dairy as a treasure but because he didn’t want to help for nothing.

The commander had a high position, but Xuancun’s position wasn’t low either. He had a giant family behind him, and if they were to compare, he would be much stronger.

Of course, that was if you didn’t count the city guards. The commander could only represent some of the guards and not all of them.

Some nobles and the city committee had their own spokespeople in the city guards.

“Head Xuancun, I know that dairy isn’t very important to you, so give me face and let us have a look. That would help all of us.”

The commander was anxious and lamented that this noble family really thought too highly of themselves. The situation was already so bad, and he couldn’t tell? There was an outsider who only used himself to come here. If the outsider got angry, he might rip his house apart!

The commander knew that Ye Zhongming had the ability. His subordinates and he worked together and didn’t even force this outsider to use all his strength. The guards of this noble family were, at best, weaker than him, so they weren’t his match.

Xuancun looked unhappy. It was obvious he wasn’t satisfied with the commander’s attitude.

Before the commander replied, Ye Zhongming slapped, and a hundred Red Scarf Fruits appeared on the table.

“These are for you. Let me read the diary.”

His words were clean and direct. Ye Zhongming was very anxious since he entered.

Xuancun’s eyes lit up. His family was rich, but a hundred fruits weren’t a small amount. He looked at Ye Zhongming and touched his chin. He wanted to extort more.

But Ye Zhongming didn’t give him the chance. He punched to the side, his fists with flames smashing into the wall to the side. The entire wall cracked and then shattered.

The commander and Xuancun were both strong. They saw the wall shatter while the corners were still intact. The ceiling, walls on the side, and the floor weren’t damaged at all.

What did this mean? Ye Zhongming’s control of strength had reached a terrifying level.

“Wait for a moment; I will go get the dairy for you.”

Xuancun was a decisive person. He saw the fist and knew that he couldn’t do that. He linked that with the commander’s current state and understood. He even guessed Ye Zhongming’s goal.

Like the outsiders in history, a strong outsider came here to find a way out.

In a short while, this noble carried an ancient leather diary and passed it to Ye Zhongming.

Ye Zhognming could speak the language but didn’t understand the words. But he didn’t fully believe the commander and this noble. He stood up and said to Xuancun, “I will hand this to the headquarters after I am done; get it from them.”

He gave the two of them a threatening gaze before leaving alone.
