Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 2069: I am not a top tier lifeform but

The green-skinned demon monster clearly understood its task: to kill the woman less than five meters away.

She was the commander of the entire Cloud Peak.

Killing her would cause the human offensive to collapse, and millions of evolved would become food in their mouths.

Out of the ten top-tier comrades who descended together, only it had reached here. It felt like this was a kind of glory.

A glory to demonstrate its ability in front of the boss…

It exerted almost all its strength, charging forcefully, attacking forcefully.

It could feel the difference in strength between itself and the human woman across from it. As long as the attack hit, then everything would end.

But dreams were good; realizing them was difficult.

A pillar of fire shot up, directly blasting the green-skinned demon monster into the air. The scorching temperature began to char its skin; intense pain made it roar with all its might.

The attack didn’t end there. Another pillar of fire surged from the ground, hitting the still airborne demon monster from another position.

Then a third!

After three fire pillars, everything seemed to vanish. The demon monster, already charred black, desperately twisted its body in mid-air so that upon landing, it could maintain a normal posture and launch a second attack.

But just as it finished this, it discovered an ocean of fire had appeared beneath its body… a true ocean of fire, with tides and waves.

Then, the green-skinned demon monster was slammed into the fiery sea by the flaming waves.

The demon monster struggled, using all its strength, appearing terrifying even to outside observers—claw shadows like wind, making the entire fiery sea churn.

But it couldn’t break free, trapped inside, enduring unknown high temperatures.

After several seconds, the fiery sea transformed, becoming a huge fireball with the demon monster at its center.

Initially not too large, the fireball suddenly expanded at a certain moment. Any demon monster touched, unless above level eight, would immediately ignite and turn to ashes. After growing to over dozens of meters in diameter, it rapidly shrank, finally becoming a faint, unremarkable layer of red light merely coating the demon monster’s skin.

The demon monster fell to the ground, charred. It looked around, lifted its arm to sniff, then began howling.

Its body started collapsing, turning into wisps of black ash—first skin and arms, then legs, finally the head.

A top-tier green-skinned demon monster was killed in a short time.

Only then did many people notice the… flame person appearing beside Xia Lei.

“Well done, Xiangxue.”

Xia Lei looked at the woman who had slowly withdrawn from the flame person state—the deputy team leader of the Chameleon Action Team, someone even Ye Zhongming envied, possessing the powerful profession of Flame Spirit, Zhao Xiangxue.

“Glad to be of service.” Zhao Xiangxue, wearing a strange mask, performed an ancient salute to Xia Lei, revealing her playful side.

The Talking Lady currently controlled two top-tier lifeforms. Though like them, she couldn’t move her body, her eyes and mouth could. She personally witnessed this woman named Xiangxue kill a top-tier lifeform.

In the sky, Yellow Ball indeed displayed formidable prowess, dealing with six green-skinned demon monsters alone. But it didn’t kill them, only drove them away, leaving as much time as possible for reinforcements to arrive.

The Talking Lady and Black Cat entangled the other three, also unable to kill them quickly. Who would have thought a relatively unknown human woman, unknown to many, would kill a top-tier green-skinned demon monster with one strike?

Only Xia Lei, who knew who Zhao Xiangxue was, wasn’t surprised at all.

Zhao Xiangxue’s job was Flame Spirit. When she and Ye Zhongming went to the Bright River Feast, she was still at the primary stage. Now, she was a top-tier job user with an evolution level of nine stars.

When she transformed into flame form, she possessed extremely high single-target attack power. In other words, in a gaming context, she was a long-range DPS mage. Having such a top-tier mage indiscriminately cast skills on you—no one could withstand it. Moreover, Zhao Xiangxue was now double top-tier in job and evolution level, wearing top-tier equipment left by Ye Zhongming before he left. Such a person suddenly erupting to kill a green-skinned demon monster was actually not hard to understand at all.

“I actually wanted you to deal with the one Zhongming mentioned. Too bad it hasn’t appeared up to now.” Xia Lei’s gaze turned to the countless green-skinned demon monsters ahead.

“It might be controlling this barrier.”

Zhao Xiangxue’s eyes swept the surroundings. The previous sky and scenery remained, but a layer of grayish substance could be seen separating them from the outside. Clearly, to kill the human headquarters members, that most powerful demon monster was presiding over this.

“You’ve been following me.”

The Talking Lady, not far from them, suddenly spoke.

Zhao Xiangxue looked at her, then at Xia Lei, smiled, and said nothing.

The Talking Lady also fell silent.

She hadn’t understood before, but now she did.

She recalled her confusion when Mo Ye suddenly appeared with her team beside the zombie horde she led because that area didn’t need the main Cloud Peak war team’s help.

She recalled feeling uncomfortable, as if someone was watching her from behind, also recalled Yellow Ball’s earlier hesitation and glance at her.

If she still didn’t understand, then she wouldn’t be the Talking Lady.

“Your yearning for freedom sometimes frightens me.” Xia Lei waved her hand. Zhao Xiangxue walked between the Talking Lady and the two green-skinned monsters, apparently about to take action, though the target wasn’t clear.

The Talking Lady remained silent.

“You know, Zhongming went to the Cosmic Races. At Cloud Peak, I’m walking on thin ice, afraid of ruining the foundation he built. What kind of treatment would a spendthrift woman receive? As fellow women, you should understand, right? So, I can only eliminate all unstable factors in their budding state. I know when Zhongming was here, you’d obediently stay. But I’m not sure if you still think that way now.”

Currently, Cloud Peak’s constraint over top-tier lifeforms; the most unstable was the Speechless Woman. She possessed Black Cat, her life companion. If two level nine beings caused trouble, it would definitely be a major incident.

“Since you already suspect, even if I make a promise, it’s useless, right?” The Talking Lady looked at Xia Lei seriously.

“Yes.” Xia Lei directly admitted.

She took out two items from her space, one in each hand.

“Please forgive me for using this opportunity against you. But believe me, once you truly become part of Cloud Peak, you will also gain more.”
