Mu Xinfei cursed but as she walked into the kitchen and saw the two meter tall giant spinning wheel, she stopped.
“This this this… What is it?”
Based on normal standards, she was a typical strong female.
This could be seen by how she didn’t hide or call the police right away when she saw Ye Zhongming.
Her confidence partially came from the training she got two months ago and one portion was from her trust in the security guards.
There was once a burglar who came in and was beaten up by the security guard.
Of course, Ye Zhongming’s outer appearance gave her a calming feeling too.
“Apocalypse Gachapon.”
Ye Zhongming touched the exquisite surface like how he touched Bai Sisi’s smooth skin.
To see such a thing in his new life, an indescribable feeling surged into his heart. There was joy, hope, rage, disgust, reliance… It was very complicated such that he didn’t know how to describe it.
Apocalypse Gachapon, was the foundation of human survival. In the previous apocalypse, those who had control were the group that got strong the quickest. Ten years later, a portion of them became experts and was in control of the tattered earth. They had absolute power that no country’s ruler had during civilisation times. They were lords that could kill anyone they wanted on their own land.
The reason why they had such huge power was due to the Apocalypse Gacha of different levels.
In the last life, three months after the apocalypse happened, only then did he find the first gachapon and found out that there was such a thing. Only then did he know the hope of becoming strong.
After three more months, he obtained five level-one demon crystals and wanted to spin the wheel but he noticed that most of them were occupied. Do you want to spin them? Sure, hand over demon crystals. Even then, if you got something good, there was a chance that you would get killed and your reward would end up in the hands of others.
Apocalypse, was far crueler than expected.
Until a year later did Ye Zhongming manage to join an organisation and obtain a chance to spin the wheel and begin his road to getting strong. In the end, he managed to become a six star expert.
But even then, it needed huge luck and sacrifices to find a safe wheel to spin.
One could say that the Apocalypse Gachapon was the most valuable resource in the apocalypse.
Pretty much each survival camp was built around an Apocalypse Gachapon.
Since he was alive, the first and biggest benefit was that Ye Zhongming recalled the position of many spinning wheels. The one in Dingcheng Apartments was the closest level 1 gachapon to him.
Looking at the gachapon ahead as well as the ten different zones above, Ye Zhongming calmed himself down. With this, he could become part of the group which had power first and then rely on his experience and memory to get strong quickly.
In the middle of the wheel was a teardrop-shaped grey stone. It was the symbol of a level one gachapon. Those with a white stone would be level two. Once it turned black would signify a level three one. Even ten years later, places with level three and above gachapons would be heavily contested.
He squinted his eyes and they landed on one of the ten rewards. It made his heart beat quickly.
Level 1 Strengthening Potion!
A potion that could give you five times the strength of normal humans.
It was pretty much the best item in the level one wheel.
In that apocalypse, Ye Zhongming got this as his first reward and then continued his process of becoming strong.
It was hard for him to imagine if it wasn’t for his luck to get it on the first try, how would his life be like? Maybe he would die really early.
“You know what this is right?”
Mu Xinfei finally woke up from all the shock and looked at Ye Zhongming calmly.
He tilted his head to glance at this woman with top class face and body. Ye Zhongming even looked forward to her turning into a zombie and him getting one level one demon crystal after killing her. Then, as long as he got four more, he could spin the wheel once more.
But thinking about it, Ye Zhongming felt like it wasn’t right. He looked at the half a meter tall metal platform that had holes for the crystals. Level 1 gachapon needed level 1 demon crystals. Usually, one wheel would need five level one demon crystals, but…
His eyes constricted. That is because this gachapon had seven grey holes!
Seven!
Two more than the usual five!
What this meant was something Ye Zhongming was clear about! There was something here that had more value than level 1!
Different level gachapons needed a different number of demon crystals but there was the smallest amount and largest amount. For example, level 1 gachapons, based on what he knew, the least was two and the most was 12. The rest needed five.
Those that needed just two level 1 crystals had a very low quality reward and were mostly some living goods, there would definitely not be any one star strengthening potions. Along with more demon crystals, the rewards would get better. It was said that the level 12 gachapon rewarded a basic item control technique which was something that would usually appear in the level 2 gachapons!
This level 1 gachapon needed seven crystals which meant that it had something that was better than usual level 1 rewards!
Zhongming looked at the ten rewards. Apart from the strengthening potion, there was a diagram of a gun, one of a crossbow, a medical case, a bag of four different flavors of fruit cans, a picture of six bottles of water, chewing gum, some tea leaves and a bottle of honey.
Finally, was a diagram that made him excited!
A card!
The back view of a card!
Lucky Skill Card!
The name of this card appeared in Ye Zhongming’s mind.
Lucky Skill Card, a card that would give some special skill like a vision card which would strengthen one’s sight, the sensory card which would strengthen your five senses. Like a pet card which would give you a beast pet.
In the Apocalypse Gachapon, a portion of them would have such a Skill Card. Higher level ones would give better skills. Before his death, Ye Zhongming’s captain got a Lucky Skill Card on a level four wheel and got Stone Skin Technique which caused his skin to be as strong as rock that protected his organs. His chances of surviving dangerous situations greatly increased. Moreover, he used this skill to kill many high level monsters and obtained many high level demon crystals.
Now with such a Lucky Skill Card in front of him, how would he not be tempted?
Looking at the time, Ye Zhongming knew that in just a few minutes, those people without natural immunity would turn into mutants and become zombies. This was the first phase of natural selection and there was no talk about fairness. One could say that this depended on one’s luck.
Ye Zhongming was undoubtedly lucky as his body had the resistance so he wouldn’t turn into a zombie.
Instinctively, Ye Zhongming looked at the beautiful girl beside the wheel, who knew if she was lucky or not.
Maybe because his gaze was a little sinister which made her wary, she ended up taking two steps back. She then wore her slippers and ran out of the gate. Ye Zhongming shook his head. If she wasn’t lucky, it would make no difference where one mutated. If you are lucky and didn’t mutate, at least you would survive a little longer inside. Head out? That place would turn into hell and heading out would be asking for death.
In the past, Ye Zhongming spent a month in his own rented apartment, relying on a little bit of food and water to live. In the end, he had no choice but to head out. At that time, the most chaotic moment was over but the outside was still filled with dangers. If one wasn’t careful, one would become food. Be it the food of zombies or that of other humans.
But after half a minute, she ran back and her face was ashen white. She probably saw something unbelievable.
“You, you knew what happened right? You have always been calm and you look unsurprised looking at this wheel. You drove right to my house. So you know what was going to happen right!”
Her voice was shaking when she said that. Her emotions were in a relatively unstable mode but what made Ye Zhongming impressed was that even in such a state, she still had a sharp sense of observation. Not everyone, especially girls could notice so many details.
“What is your name?”
Ye Zhongming smiled and was suddenly a little interested in this woman. Maybe once she mutated, he would bury her if he felt good and make a tomb for her.
“Mu Xinfei.”
“Cough cough!”
Ye Zhongming choked and looked at her like he was looking at a monster.
“What did you say your name was?”
