Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 1870: Bloody Region 50

“I wonder how the boss is doing over there?”

Jie Kui leaned against a tree, his eyes vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

Shi Kangbu, Helsky, Yang Tuo, and the others nearby remained silent. They couldn’t answer that question either.

Because these few had been following Ye Zhongming, their points were very high, and their rankings had all entered the top five hundred. However, in preparation for the next cycle, they had spent a considerable amount, even with the dividends from selling the equipment. But none of them fell below the thousandth rank.

This unexpectedly allowed them to stay together without being separated. Only that aura warrior, because he had slightly more points left, suddenly entered the top five hundred, so he wasn’t with the group.

Unknowingly, it seemed as if it had been deliberately arranged this way, singling out the only one who hadn’t agreed to participate in the plan with everyone.

Perhaps the previous battles had given them confidence, and since most of the team members were together, they chose Zone 47.

Although Zizikaba hadn’t explicitly said it, everyone knew that the further back the zone, the higher the difficulty.

“The captain is with He, so there should be no problem. The captain… is very strong.” The shield warrior from the Fengkan race, named Acha, paused as if recalling something, then emphasized, “Really strong.”

Everyone laughed. At first, they thought it made sense, but then they felt it was obvious.

Could the captain not be strong? If he weren’t strong, how could he be the captain? How could they take orders from someone weaker than themselves? Was that even worth mentioning?

Acha grew anxious: “I mean it! During that day’s battle, I used my shield to smash a guy back, but the captain punched him so hard he knelt down. I didn’t pay attention at first, but I remembered during rest. Right, it was the guy Fasikeda killed!”

Fasikeda was the magnetic Jin race aura warrior who wasn’t here.

Everyone knew he was straightforward and somewhat earnest. Seeing his anxious expression, they quickly nodded in agreement.

How could the captain’s strength only be about being physically stronger than you? The captain’s strength lay in his… versatility.

This was the consensus in everyone’s minds. Those who had seen Ye Zhongming fight had thought that, since he came from the Star-Eye Clan, he should be an assassin, killer, or striker. But in reality, whether it was long-range, close-range, physical, or illusory, he could do it all—and not just competently, but excellently in every aspect!

“Alright, let’s organize our equipment. Our prey should be here soon.”

Jie Kui clapped his hands and nodded at Helsky. The two of them jointly led the team in Ye Zhongming’s absence. Their current target was a parasite in this area, a very strong one—a unique insect of a powerful adult Slave Race. The recorder showed it was worth over five hundred points!

As for why this team, which had tasted the sweetness of killing, was now acting as hunters… never think they had changed their nature. They just felt that since everyone had spent a lot of points, killing now would be too low in cost-effectiveness. They were waiting for the final day.

Because the five hundred people ranked between five hundred and a thousand had three zones to choose from, most opted for the less difficult Zone 45. So, Zone 47, where they were now, was somewhat deserted. The team members smoothly completed the hunt and obtained the points.

While their points were increasing, Ye Zhongming’s situation was not so good.

He was still being pursued.

It wasn’t a vendetta; it was due to his points and his heavily red status.

No matter how justified his reasons for killing were, it couldn’t hide the fact that he had killed many people. Ye Zhongming was now the highest-ranked red-name in terms of points.

What would everyone think when they saw him? Even if he hadn’t killed the most people, he must have killed the highest-quality ones; otherwise, how could he have obtained so many points?

This question lingered like a curse in the minds of the top fifty experts. Coupled with their covetousness for Ye Zhongming’s points, some of them unconsciously ambushed the area, waiting for Ye Zhongming to teleport in.

This was despite the teleportation points not being fixed; these people could only scatter and roam nearby, constantly searching. Otherwise, Ye Zhongming would likely have been greeted by twenty or thirty powerful opponents.

While escaping, the Cloud Peak King worried about He and could only blame his bad luck. After all, the rules had changed so abruptly.

Alone, he really couldn’t handle so many people.

In the end, to shake off his pursuers, Ye Zhongming had no choice but to flee into the territory of a pair of parasites.

A male and female pair, True Color No. 3 parasites, Siha.

On the recorder, this pair of parasites was worth a total of over 1,400 points!

Siha were life forms somewhat resembling frogs in appearance, but they were not amphibians; they were genuine, land-dwelling creatures. Their massive bodies lay there like small airliners, covered in thick scales. On their backs were meter-high, tube-like, hollow protrusions constantly emitting black-purple smoke, reeking of a foul odor.

Sharp teeth, long tongues, tails at the rear, hypnotic vocal cords, toxic fog on their backs, and moving in pairs—these were the terrifying aspects of these parasites.

Not to mention newcomers, even powerful beings among the alien races would have to be extremely cautious when dealing with these creatures.

Among the most powerful parasites, Zizikaba mentioned Siha was one of them.

These things were extremely troublesome. Newcomers, even in large groups, were reluctant to provoke them. Seeing Ye Zhongming enter the Siha territory, they hesitated for only a few seconds before all retreating.

Of course, they didn’t go far; they just started hunting in the surrounding area. Although they didn’t think Ye Zhongming could come out alive, they still waited for the final outcome.

Once Ye Zhongming’s name disappeared from the rankings, they would end this spontaneous joint attack.

The Cloud Peak King watched the Siha leaping rapidly toward him from afar without a trace of fear. He calmly began taking things out from his spatial equipment to set up.

Now, he was no longer the inexperienced newcomer who had just entered the battlefield with nothing. He was a tycoon with over five thousand points to spend.

What were the most powerful parasites the alien races could capture? Ye Zhongming intended to see for himself.

………………………………………………

Just as the fourth cycle of the newcomer battlefield, which determined the fate of many, was in full swing, the alien races faced another challenge after barely weathering the shockwave brought by the Slave Race’s great reproduction.

Two consecutive, nearly back-to-back crises almost totally crushed the stable system the alien races had painstakingly built.

In the seven survivor fortresses, in every city of each fortress, every member of the alien races received a message within just a few hours.

The nutrient wave had erupted early!
