Chapter 955: Focusfire (1)
Occasionally, one could hear engines moving across the street. When they hesitated and came out to take a look, that sound disappeared into the wilderness.
No one knew what Cloud Peak would do, but they guessed it was something huge.
They thought back to Cloud Peak’s bounty, and many felt like they were about to attack a super faction or a large horde.
The bounty was naturally not so easy to accept; after all, it meant that many people would die. But it was high risk, high reward. Would they regret ignoring this bounty?
Two years were about to pass, and many of their mentalities had changed. They couldn’t avoid dangers like peacetime and would choose to face it head-on. After all, humans were in danger at any moment. Each fight might be their last.
If you wanted to live longer and better, you had to work harder to get stronger. To get stronger, you could only risk your life.
Actually, people still avoid dangers, but they have to use other methods to do so.
Cloud Peak’s reputation was important. The stronger they got, the stronger the warriors inside were, and the better the rewards of those who followed them would get.Many people were tempted when they saw the bounty. Before this, few signed up because they were careful about risking their lives. Another reason was that there was some time before the deadline, so they weren’t in a rush.
But recently, Cloud Peak’s operation made them anxious. Many factions accepted the bounty.
This was surprising to Ye Zhongming, who wasn’t at Cloud Peak.
The current Ye Zhongming was in a valley.
The wilderness in the apocalypse was not friendly. During these two days, Ye Zhongming led his men and fought many battles with the various lifeforms here. During the most intense moment, he fought a pack of wolves. There were over 1500 wolves, and this caused many problems for them.
There were also mutated plants, some zombies, mutated bugs…
Even now, after they modified the value, they are still being disturbed by various life forms.
But this valley that was empty for a long time had changed.
“Boss, the Chain Prisoner is getting close. Based on this speed, it would arrive in the valley within one and a half hours.”
Little Tiger’s voice spread through the battle contribution badge, causing Ye Zhongming and the others with the badge to slow down. After that, they sped up.
They knew that they didn’t have much time left.
An hour later, one could see the giant figure of the Chain Prisoner from the peaks on the two sides of the valley.
Little Tiger was back and had taken some photos for Ye Zhongming.
“We snatched this fellow’s Blood Wood, and now he found a piece of wood that isn’t smaller than that piece of bloodwood.”
Little Tiger felt like he couldn’t understand the Chain Prisoner if he used the human way of thinking. It ate everything it met, and just like that, not only were its injuries healed, but it was slowly evolving. Its crystal was showing some silver specks which was a sign that it was advancing towards level nine.
“It would be much simpler if Death King Tree came. Level eight against level eight, perfect.”
Guang Yao looked at the figure get close and was filled with some regret.
Death King Tree had entered Cloud Peak’s gene lab and was being experimented on by Liu Zhenghong.
When Ye Zhongming went to find it a few days ago, it was actually very weak. This was something people couldn’t understand. How did Liu Zhenghong convince this fellow to go through the experiments?
Ye Zhongming felt like the Liu Zhenghong probably allowed the Death King Tree to do things to her. But she didn’t say anything, so he didn’t ask. He warned the Death King Tree. What he got in return was it rolling its eye.
He ordered Chameleon to keep a close look on the lab and asked King Ling Kun to defend there before coming out to hunt.
“Using Death King Tree on this fellow isn\'t too efficient. Our real enemy isn’t this giant but those people from Saint Light Hall. Level nine. That is so exciting.”
Ye Zhongming replied before asking those who weren’t needed to retreat.
Compared to the level nine old man beside the Gate of Blessing, the level eight Chain Prisoner wasn’t much of a threat.
If other factions heard that, they would be speechless. Level eight wasn’t strong? But for Cloud Peak, that was the truth. They were stronger, and their enemies were, too.
“Let’s begin!”
The Cloud Peak warriors hid their auras and tried not to alert the Chain Prisoner.
The ground started to shake, and that became more intense.
The level eight lifeform didn’t cover its terrifying aura. Mutated lifeforms fled from it wherever it went.
But when it suddenly stopped when it arrived at the valley\'s entrance.
It sensed that there were many signs of life.
Ye Zhongming gave the order to attack.
Two golden light balls dove from above and tossed many small missiles at it. They then fired lasers at it.
Right, two exquisite floating balls. The other was the one Guang Yao brought. After Mu Xinfei came, she brought some materials. Ye Zhongming repaired that Exquisite Floating Ball and did some modifications, which turned it golden, too.
They announced the start of this battle.
Chain Prisoner looked at the sky and gulped. Its voice was tender, like a baby\'s. It waved the giant piece of wood, which caused explosions and ignited several missiles.
The flames and smoke from the explosion blocked some of their sights.
The Exquisite Floating Balls flew upwards after their first attack so that the Chain Prisoner couldn’t attack them.
