Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 1937: Move the flower to my room

Ka Lan Ka looked through the window at the training ground outside. There were very few people on it, and only a handful of those were serious.

These days, because of the matter of the Bronze Order Leader, the entire Bronze Camp was unsettled. This third-tier team of the Star-Eye Clan, already turbulent, seemed to have even lost its last bit of training enthusiasm.

Everyone felt somewhat lost about the future.

Including Ka Lan Ka himself.

Originally, he thought he was the most promising candidate to succeed the Bronze Order Leader position.

Some said this Bronze Order Leader position was cursed. Among the successive holders, most did not meet a good end; more than half died in battle, one-third were assassinated, and others left the position due to illness, disability, crime, or race betrayal.

But Ka Lan Ka didn’t care. He had been in contact with several previous Bronze Order Leaders; he knew very well how those people left their posts.

He felt that if he sat in that position, he would do better than any holder in the last twenty years.

Unfortunately, every time hope arrived, the clan’s final choice was not him. Especially this time, when there were no more strong competitors, and he had even temporarily managed the Bronze Camp for a while. The entire Star-Eye Clan thought he was only one official announcement away from that position.

He waited for the official announcement, and found it still wasn’t him.

His mindset completely collapsed.

He decided to resist, to fight for the benefits that rightfully belonged to him.

If it were any other race, Ka Lan Ka wouldn’t do this, because resisting one’s mother clan single-handedly is a very difficult thing to succeed at.

Look at the 101st generation Bronze Order Leader; he was so exceptionally talented, but what was the result? When he encountered the Star-Eye Clan, which had not yet declined, he still didn’t succeed.

But the current Star-Eye Clan was different. The clan was too weak to withstand turmoil, even if the turmoil was in the weakest of the three major teams, the Bronze Camp.

Also, the Bronze Camp’s support for him was one of Ka Lan Ka’s sources of confidence.

Speaking of this, Ka Lan Ka had to thank that Novice number one. It was that person’s prolonged delay in taking over that made the originally neutral Bronze Mask Warriors dissatisfied and led them to lean towards him. Suddenly, Ka Lan Ka gained the support of over seventy percent of the entire team. This was truly a case of a pillow arriving when one wanted to sleep.

As for today, he would let this Novice number one know that since you never came to take over, then don’t take over at all.

Ka Lan Ka suddenly felt very good, a feeling he hadn’t had for a long time. The last time… was it when he had a woman for the first time?

One of the few Bronze Mask Warriors on the training ground suddenly shouted and used a skill. In the eyes of Ka Lan Ka, a Deputy Order Leader whose furelai already exceeded ten thousand, it wasn’t much, but he just felt it was very good and quite excellent.

He even thought that when he officially ascended to the Order Leader position, he would properly reward this diligent subordinate.

The sound of footsteps came, many messy but light. This was characteristic of many Star-Eye Clan warriors walking together. Ka Lan Ka knew that the moment belonging to him had arrived.

First came the knocking sound, then Leng Jiao’s inquiring voice.

It seemed that the Novice number one, who had suddenly visited today, had been suppressed and recognized his own situation. Otherwise, he should have thrown a tantrum, then gotten angry and left in a huff.

Leng Jiao was the first to push the door open and enter, giving Ka Lan Ka a smug look. As he moved aside, Ka Lan Ka saw Ye Zhongming wearing the Bronze Order Leader mask.

In that instant, Ka Lan Ka knew his expression was one of displeasure. He knew he shouldn’t, but he couldn’t suppress it, because he felt that this mask should be his.

“Hello, I am Ye Zhongming.”

The King of Cloud Peak extended his hand towards Ka Lan Ka.

Ka Lan Ka looked at the outstretched hand, knowing it was a polite gesture from this Novice number one’s home planet, according to rumors. He sneered coldly, simply looked at Ye Zhongming for several seconds, and finally, as the other seemed awkward and unsure whether to withdraw his hand, he shook it.

“Long heard of your great name, but it seems you don’t look all… that…”

The Bronze Camp managers, following behind, regardless of their previous stance, showed contempt upon seeing Ye Zhongming’s expression at this moment.

Even if he couldn’t be the master here, he should have some dignity, right? But what was this?

However, their contempt lasted only a second before they saw a flash of blood.

Ka Lan Ka’s hand gripped Ye Zhongming’s hand. The moment the two hands touched, he instinctively exerted force, preparing to teach this little guy a lesson. He thought that by the time he finished his sentence, if this little guy hadn’t cried out in pain, he would crush his hand.

But when he said the word ‘that’, he felt his body grow heavy. When he said the word ‘…’, his spirit became a bit dazed. By the time the word ‘…’ left his mouth, he seemed to see the other party move, and then, the word ‘…’ never had a chance to be spoken.

A sharp dagger pierced through his throat, then cut horizontally, severing half of Ka Lan Ka’s neck.

Ye Zhongming withdrew his hand and pushed it casually. Ka Lan Ka’s corpse fell backward, hit the wall, and then knocked over a potted plant he had been very fond of during his life.

On the training ground, that diligent Bronze Mask Warrior let out another shout.

Ye Zhongming shook the blood off the dagger, turned his head to look at Leng Jiao, who was shocked and unable to extricate himself, and asked coldly: “Just now, was it you who told me to come see this dead person, right?”

“I, no, I wasn’t…”

The fear in Leng Jiao’s heart suddenly surged; he was unable to suppress it anymore.

Compared to Ka Lan Ka, his strength was inferior, and his status was inferior. Now that Ye Zhongming had killed even Ka Lan Ka so readily, killing him would be even easier.

However, his terror could not save his life. Ye Zhongming raised his hand, and the dagger seemed to be delivered very slowly.

Those behind wanted to block it, but suddenly found that time seemed to have slowed down, and it felt as if something was pressing on their heads, preventing them from reacting in time.

Leng Jiao was even more so. He watched helplessly as the dagger stabbed into his own eye socket, then twisted, pulled out, stabbed into the other eye socket, and twisted again.

When Leng Jiao’s corpse fell together with Ka Lan Ka’s corpse, Ye Zhongming didn’t even look at these Bronze Camp managers and walked out of the room on his own.

“Have all Bronze Camp personnel assemble on the training ground in twenty minutes. I don’t care where they are or what mission they are on; those who aren’t here in twenty minutes need never return.”

Ye Zhongming spoke as he walked. “Also, replant that potted plant from earlier and move it to my room. By the way, clean up the two corpses; the weather is hot now, they will stink if not dealt with.”

Behind him, the group of Bronze Camp managers looked at each other.
