Chapter 756: Trapped
Chapter 756: Trapped
Each warrior was precious to Ye Zhongming. Moreover, the ones who entered the arena were Ah Yangs brothers.
Only seven of these people remained. That little girl and Big Milk didnt follow the team and were left in Cloud Peak. In the center city and Linhai battle, two of them were sacrificed.
Ah Yang and Big Milks 11-person team had witnessed how cruel the apocalypse was.
But these seven were raised as core members. They were all five-star evolved and also cultivated the Scorching Flame Technique. In Cloud Peak, they could battle the other core members without using job skills.
After two battles, these fellows, who were, on average, younger than 17, had compensated for their weaknesses. They had jobs, some skills, and also gained equipment. They were far stronger.
But the Resistance Zone wasnt weak either. Look at the three pieces of equipment they created and their battle squads strength. They werent weaker than Cloud Peak; they were stronger overall.
To be safe, Ye Zhongming led people to the arena.
This was a place where people in Sharp Peak Mountain settled their disputes.
If it was peacetime, there was no need for a place like this. But after the apocalypse started, people became like Superman: arrogant and hot-tempered. Even within the Resistance Zones, there were many conflicts. Each battle squad, each person, was fighting for their interests.
When they faced issues that they couldnt solve with normal methods, they chose the more direct method that was more suited for the apocalypse to solve the problem.
Fight!
People would show off their strength, and the winner would be in charge. It was simple and direct and saved time.
However, everyone evolved, so they used their jobs and skills when they fought. They would use strong equipment and even battle beasts.
Under such a situation, injuries and deaths were unavoidable.
Once someone died, things would become problematic, and hatred would amass. So, the resistance zone prohibited fighting here.
But when external factions entered Sharp Peak Mountain, the arena became boisterous. It was mostly conflicts between external forces. They didnt come from the same source as the resistance zone, and once there were conflicts, they didnt dare to solve them outside and were afraid of the enforcement forces, so they solved them in the arena.
Moreover, these factions were invited by the various battle squads. The resistance zones rules restricted the battle squads and could not assist, but they could allow the factions to challenge their enemies.
Under such a situation, the arena became popular, and many would enter to battle. Of course, most of the battles had deaths.
As reality was cruel, this place had a gambling aspect. Every time someone entered, people would place bets. Recently, this place looked like an ancient European arena.
Before he was even at the place, Ye Zhongming saw many people dashing there. They received news that there would be a life-and-death battle.
When Ye Zhongming and his group arrived, he was shocked. Based on what he knew, things only happened half an hour ago, but there were a few thousand here! Moreover, the numbers were increasing.
This place was like a football stadium. In the middle was a translucent barrier blocking the entrance. It was a piece of defensive equipment. Those who entered would place a giant stone at the entrance to inject some energy to strengthen this barrier.
Ye Zhongming was followed by Liang Chuyin and Zhao Xingmei, who were all beauties. Along with Xia Bai, who wore a mask, and Ah Yang, whose body gave off killing intent, a few of them attracted attention.
Cloud Peaks recent purchase activities also made them the focus of attention.
Boss! Brother Zhongming!
A few voices spread. Ah Yangs few brothers rang over. Their faces were dark, and killing intent was thick. But when they saw Ye Zhongming, they lowered their heads.
They knew it was wrong to accept the challenge and worried their boss would blame them.
What happened?
Ye Zhongming looked around and saw Zhang Hengzhou smiling coldly at him. He frowned.
They were baited.
After a few of them told him what happened, he understood.
Ye Zhongming gave each person from Cloud Peak ten three-star evolution potions as a reward for them to buy what they wanted. The Cloud Peak warriors were all very rich. Their income was very high as long as it wasnt a large-scale battle where they had to hand their spoils up.
There was a reward this time, so a few of them planned to see if they needed anything in the market.
The market here was higher-class than Ying City, and they quickly found what they wanted. When they were about to buy it, a group charged in to steal it.
They started raising the price. When the seller saw that people were willing to offer more, he broke his promise and planned to sell it to this group.
Cloud Peak members were naturally unhappy, but they suppressed themselves. They discussed and gave a higher price.
It was a bid, so they didnt mind bidding more.
However, the other side raised the bid, and both sides pushed the price twice as much as it had been before.
Finally, Cloud Peak members saw it wouldnt work and gave up.
Those following behind these people mocked them and said a bunch of nasty things. They called them broke and brats. Some even started to insult Liang Chuyin and the others. Even Xia Bais full female battle squad was insulted.
This annoyed the few teens. Their hot-tempered nature from Cloud Peak meant that they would attack those people.
But when they attacked, many resistance zone enforcement forces appeared and said they didnt know the rules. Ultimately, they were being baited and made to agree to fight in the arena.
The matter was obvious. People were targeting Cloud Peak. They targeted those few teens whose evolution levels were decent but very young.
As long as they killed these few five-star evolved, it would be a blow to Cloud Peak.
Ye Zhongming was expressionless, but coldness appeared on his body. Familiar people knew that he was furious.
Before Ye Zhongming could speak, a bunch of people walked over. Two of them were people that he recognized.
Zhang Hengzhou, Zhao Jingchen!
