Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 2023: Sharing
Afterwards came the third pill, the fourth, and the fifth.
The values displayed on the machine also jumped increasingly alarmingly.
It should have been a joyous matter, but it made everyone feel increasingly unreal and even worried whether Ye Zhongming’s body could withstand it.
Ye Zhongming’s Furelai shot straight up to thirteen thousand!
Even Helsky and Jie Kui, who had extreme confidence in Ye Zhongming, were becoming somewhat anxious.
From over seven thousand to over thirteen thousand—this was simply not normal! Increasing six thousand Furelai in one day was probably exceedingly rare in history. Only a few super-geniuses from super races might achieve this under various coincidences and with medicinal catalysis.
But those people had various major experts for protection. And beside Ye Zhongming? Apart from several Changxu Water Race members with not-low Furelai but who weren’t combat professions, the others weren’t even as good as Ye Zhongming.
And he hadn’t taken that highest-grade Nine-Turn medicine yet…
Would there be problems after taking it?
Amid everyone’s worries, Ye Zhongming took that Nine-Turn medicine.
For the first minute, his Furelai didn’t change at all. Slowly, it began to rise, and the speed increased faster and faster.
This felt different from the sudden jumps. A large-range jump gave people a feeling of their hearts leaping suddenly. This felt like a large hand continuously plucking at the heart.
Thirteen thousand, fourteen thousand, fifteen thousand… When his Furelai increased by two thousand, the speed of increase showed no sign of slowing down at all!
Ye Zhongming’s whole body was sweating profusely; his skin was as red as boiled shrimp, clearly under tremendous pressure.
“Boss, will something go wrong?”
Helsky was already somewhat unable to bear this psychological pressure; his voice even began to tremble.
“Wait, boss… will be fine.” Although Jie Kui said this, his confidence was clearly lacking.
When his Furelai reached seventeen thousand, it finally slowed down, eventually stopping at seventeen thousand five hundred sixty.
In a short while, Ye Zhongming’s Furelai had increased by over ten thousand!
The people in the room no longer knew what to say.
They waited another full half-hour before Ye Zhongming slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with bloodshot lines.
“Let’s begin.”
Ye Zhongming’s voice was indescribably hoarse, completely unrecognizable as his own.
“Boss!”
“Zhongming, how about giving up!”
Helsky, He, and others were about to change their minds. They would rather abandon this operation than have anything happen to Ye Zhongming.
“It’s fine, I can endure it.” Ye Zhongming continued speaking with difficulty. “Quickly!”
After speaking, Ye Zhongming threw the ‘Common Bond Pill’ into his mouth.
Helsky and Jie Kui looked at each other, gritted their teeth, and directly placed their hands on Ye Zhongming’s left and right shoulders.
The dimly small room was immediately filled with energy.
About a minute later, Helsky and Jie Kui both collapsed weakly to the ground and were carried aside by the Changxu Water Race people to lie down.
The two were just physically exhausted; their minds were clear. They looked at Ye Zhongming, their eyes full of concern.
At this moment, the instrument displayed Ye Zhongming’s Furelai already approaching the twenty-five thousand mark.
“Common Bond Pill?” That Changxu Water Race person, who initially expressed dissatisfaction with Ye Zhongming, now muttered to himself.
They had only heard of such a thing but had never seen it, nor knew anyone who had used it.
Because the conditions for using this medicine were very strict, the prerequisite was having lives that had cultivated together a secret technique called ‘Flowing Sky Sharing.’ After taking this pill, the main life could ‘borrow’ the Furelai of others who had similarly cultivated for a short time, achieving the purpose of instantly greatly increasing strength.
If the Changxu Water Race people hadn’t lived relatively long, they might not even have known of the existence of this secret technique and its corresponding medicine.
He didn’t know how Ye Zhongming learned it, how he made two subordinates willingly learn it together, or how he obtained such rare medicine. But everything proved he had planned this long in advance.
When Ye Zhongming regained consciousness again, he differed greatly from his original appearance.
His skin was covered with a layer of blood-red color; his eyes were bloodshot. Even standing there, blood began continuously flowing from his feet.
When a person’s body bore too much power not belonging to himself, it was a form of harm and destruction.
Flowing Sky Sharing and Common Bond Pill had side effects.
After the effect ended, whether for the auxiliary lives or the main life, their Furelai would permanently decrease somewhat. How much depended on the situation, but a decrease was certain, and this decrease was irreversible.
Judging by the current situation, it might also cause some unpredictable harm to the body.
Ye Zhongming’s appearance was ferocious and terrifying, yet he still maintained his rationality.
He looked at He and the other Changxu Water Race people and said, “He stays here. The rest follow me. You only need to cast Water Chain on me.”
After speaking, Ye Zhongming walked out first. But before reaching the door, his body staggered. However, he quickly adapted to the changes in his body and adjusted accordingly.
This was a not-so-new building. Where Ye Zhongming and the others had just been was the building’s basement. Not far opposite here was a beautiful estate in the suburbs.
At that place now, lights were brilliant, as if some banquet or the like was still being held.
“Today, is it really a good opportunity to act?”
A Changxu Water Race person said, not without worry.
He knew that at this point, it was like an arrow on the bowstring that had to be released, but he still didn’t quite understand why Ye Zhongming chose to act today.
Because today, not only were there people from Huo’er Star here, but also many people from the eight influential families of Darkstrip City.
Yes, today Ye Zhongming’s target of attack was a team from Huo’er Star in Darkstrip City… a ‘Slave Trafficking’ squad!
After the Novice War, every life knew the Changxu Water Race had close relations with Ye Zhongming. Every life guessed that most of the Changxu Water Race were currently in Darkstrip City. But regarding this ill-fated race, they couldn’t openly do anything, yet they also wouldn’t give up.
Especially the people of Huo’er Star—their obsession with the Changxu Water Race was clear to every race. Many didn’t act against the Changxu Water Race simply because they were wary of this top-tier, powerful race and didn’t want to snatch meat from their bowl.
Previously, Huo’er Star people brought some Changxu Water Race slaves to Darkstrip City. Later, they even brought several more Changxu Water Race people, bringing the number imprisoned here to ten!
Their purpose was precisely to lure out other Changxu Water Race people, possibly hiding in Darkstrip City, making them walk into a trap!
For this, since the Novice battlefield ended, they had been incredibly high-profile in Darkstrip City.
Today was another performance of their ‘high-profile’ act.
“No one is innocent…” Ye Zhongming murmured a phrase popular in his previous life. “I want to act precisely today, so that more people die.”
After speaking, he placed the final pill into his mouth.
