Apocalypse Gachapon

Li Qiang shook his head. “That ship was filled with items that aren’t from Earth. Honestly, I am not knowledgeable and didn’t receive much advanced education, so I can only guess. I only know that most of that stuff can be remotely controlled, as when those equipment was testing on us, no other lifeform appeared. Until...”

He sucked in a deep breath. It was as if thinking back at those scenes would make someone like him, who wouldn’t even panic when facing a few dozen lifeforms of his level, tremble.

“Until that place was attacked. The ship was shattered, and I saw a bunch of weird-looking corpses.”

He looked at Ye Zhongming and said softly, “You know that when evolved reach a certain level, they can sense the strength of other lifeforms. Although I don’t know your evolution level, I can sense that you are stronger than me. It's the same for those corpses. Even if they had died, I could still sense the energy in their bodies. They were stronger than you, even much stronger.”

Ye Zhongming knew that because Li Qiang was a professional athlete, he was even a sensitive shooting athlete, so when Ye Zhongming forgot to hide his aura due to the shock of the news, Li Qiang sensed the strength of his energy.

Much stronger than him?

Ye Zhongming guessed that if those dead corpses gave him such a feeling, how strong were they when they were alive? However, they were even killed!

Li Qiang described the corpses to Ye Zhongming and made him sure that these weren’t humans from Earth.

“I am not sure why they are testing on us, but one thing is for certain: They have very strong enemies.”

“After returning to Earth, I felt that… Earth and lifeforms on Earth are all just experiments of these things. We were like their toys.”

Ye Zhongming didn’t reply, as he often felt that way.

He wasn’t strong enough to touch and consider these things in his last life. It was already good that he was alive. But in this life, when he was one of the strongest humans, he was forced to consider this.

He was about to reach the peak. Those lifeforms could be seen with a lift of his head.

Moreover, Ye Zhongming hated the feeling of being played. He would try all ways to break free from this fate.

He didn’t tell Li Qiang that because this person was not strong enough to split the burden with him.

“Then how did you survive?”

Li Qiang was a little shocked. “I don’t remember too clearly. Someone attacked that place and did something to us. When it was my turn, the ships’ reinforcements arrived, so they were hurried in what they did to me, so I kept some of my memory.”

“But my memory is still a little blur. A ray of light sent me back to Earth, and I was separated from those from the new base. I don’t know where they went, but I was in some ice plains when I woke up. After walking for half a day, I bumped into someone from Five Ring Money, and they captured me.”

Ye Zhongming thought about it, “How long has passed since then?”

“Three months.”

“Which means that you spent over half a year in space?”

“That should be it.”

The two of them were silent. This news was a little heavy for them.

“You have spent three months here; what do you know?” Ye Zhongming changed the topic and decided to stop talking about it. With his current ability, he knew that there was nothing he could do. He could only touch such things when he reached nine stars; if not, everything else was just talk.

“I don’t know much.” Li Qiang coughed. His injuries still made him feel bad, “I only know that Five Ring Money captured many evolved like me and trained us. They threaten those with families, and they poison those who are alone, like myself. If we don’t listen to them, they will activate the toxin. This is multiple times more cruel than just killing us directly.”

“I know what you want to understand, but I know nothing about the Bright Water World. I only heard some news, and I don’t know if it's real or not.”

Ye Zhongming raised his brow, “Tell me about it.”

“I heard a slightly powerful manager speak to that healer, and they said there is a monument deep in Bright Water World. There is something or a reward on that monument. They were very muffled and didn’t reveal much.”

What monument?

Ye Zhongming searched his memories and confirmed that he hadn’t heard of something similar. Seemed like he would have to spend more time here to get an answer.

“Right.” Li Qiang suddenly said, “The ice plain I was left in should be near their headquarters. I think Bright Water World appeared there first, too.”

Ye Zhongming’s eyes lit up. This news was much more valuable. This meant that Bright Water World might be related to those lifeforms above.

But would the Slave Race be the people who experimented on Li Qiang or the attackers after?

“I am going to spend some time here, so I can’t save you.” Ye Zhongming knew that time was up and tapped Li Qiang’s shoulder.

He nodded. If Ye Zhongming released him, he would draw attention from Five Ring Money. Not only would he be unable to flee, Ye Zhongming would also be in trouble.

“But don’t worry, I will bring you out of this place.”

Ye Zhongming passed a five-star potion to Li Qiang.

“Evolve during these two days. Once we get out, follow me back to Cloud Peak.”

Li Qiang was stunned and nodded his head heavily.

He knew how important this potion was.

Li Qiang looked at his leaving back view and stopped him.

“When I was on the ships, they were afraid they would kill me, so they increased my level. I also learned the skills and job from them, but… I didn’t use any potion or job scroll. Even I don’t know what is going on. Anyways, I just suddenly grasped them.”

Ye Zhongming was stunned for half a day and left the cell after nodding.

On the way back, Ye Zhongming was still shocked by the news he got. Only when he sat in his seat did he realize that Bo Ge, Mo Qi, and Brother Yuan were there. They sat beside him. The latter were pridefully gloating to Bo Ge about something.
