Until many years later when Ye Zhonming bumped into a Monster Baby did he experience how terrifying this little thing was.
It was the nightmare of any person.
But humans didn’t know anything about it now.
Ye Zhongming knew that many people would die today but he didn’t think about stopping them.
Humans have to understand the relationship between risk and reward. This was something that was still the same in the apocalypse. This relationship was something bathing in blood.
If one didn’t understand that, or rather couldn’t properly understand that, then one wouldn’t be able to live for long.
Ye Zhongming didn’t need to remind fellow humans because he also needed to face a huge risk. He even had to face even more dangers.
Moreover, people might not listen to him. He might even bring trouble to himself.
“Take the walkie talkie. After we begin, Liang Chuyin hide there. If you notice a meter-tall monster carrying a golden bag, inform me right away.”
“Teacher Park, you observe here and report the situation. Moreover, pay special attention to where that little monster is going.”
“I will be hiding near that bank. If Teacher Park can confirm where the monster is going then report it to me. Chuyin and I will gather in the direction you point us to.”
The two girls listened carefully to the mission that Ye Zhongming gave them and remember it in their hearts.
“In a while many never before seen monsters will appear along with numerous zombies so don’t be afraid. In comparison, Teacher Park will be safer but that is not absolute. So if you face dangers that you can’t handle you can retreat. If there is a chance, find another high point to report the battle situation and the location of the monster. If not then head over here.”
Ye Zhongming pointed at a skyscraper, “Wait there for Liang Chuyin and me.”
He said to Liang Chuyin, “Once you notice the target you have to inform me. Although that thing doesn’t have abilities but it is really cunning and can summon many mutated beings. Don’t act alone.”
“Finally, no matter the outcome, after I give the signal head there and meet up with Teacher Park.”
“Do you understand?”
Liang Chuyin nodded. Ye Zhongming didn’t worry much about this influencer as she was decisive and could notice the key points of a problem.
“This will be very dangerous so you all must be mentally prepared. If you want to back out there is still time.”
The two girls shook their heads and their expressions were really solemn. They didn’t have any intention of backing down.
Without any sign, a giant glow shone from the side of Pearl Lake which covered the sun such that the three of them couldn’t help but squint.
Shortly after, there were the rumblings of Crawlers. Along with this, a horn resounded and spread out from the sky such that half the district could hear it.
The Treasure Basin was activated and the Monster Baby officially appeared!
“Go!”
Ye Zhongming said that and charged out first.
…………………………………………………………………………
There were three regions in this city. Among them, the Peace Region that Pearl Lake was in wasn’t the largest. There was the school, the square, a park, it was the region with the best scenery.
When the apocalypse began, this place didn’t have the most zombies.
But the number of mutated monsters here was the most. After hearing that horn, many survivors saw a shocking scene.
Various weird looking monsters popped out from unimaginable places and headed toward earl lake, forming many black lines on the surface.
The most terrifying was still the zombie hoard.
These monsters that were separated across the streets started to gather towards the lake. Wherever they passed, apart from their own kind, any being would be attacked.
Survivors, and mutated beings all became their targets. Anything that blocked them would be ripped apart and then eaten.
Half the region was in chaos. In just a short moment, killing became the main theme. Thick blood scents spread in the air and stimulated the nerves of all living beings in the area.
………………………………………………………………………………
Qin Xiaobo was the first person to notice the Treasure Basin and the one who spun it. He was the leader of the survivor team who arrived here first.
Although the apocalypse just started but humans showed their strong ability to adapt. Especially those bold ones, they started to find ways to live on and even live better than in the past.
It was still that same sentence, life will find its own way out.
Undoubtedly, Qin Xiaobo was such a person. He was defending his shop when it began and used his knuckle duster to shatter the head of a customer that turned into a zombie. After shivering in the face of zombies for a few hours, he felt like he had changed.
He was no longer afraid.
When the sky lit up, he dug out the crystal that didn’t seem to fit in with the zombie and then ran back to where his house was at.
But what he got was despair.
His father and mother had turned into monsters and were biting on a corpse. That corpse was the son that he was raising after he divorced his wife.
After a moment of being stunned, he cried out and ran out of his home.
He was lucky that he wasn’t scratched during that time. When he calmed himself down, he met a few survivors and these homeless people banded together.
Those people traveling outside were all bold. They fought zombies and even killed them before. Qin Xiaobo was a businessman and he was muscular. His brain and body were his advantage. He also had nothing to hold him back. After two dangerous situations, he saved his teammates many times and was thus respected by them and they listened to him.
At the start of the apocalypse, it was a really vicious time. Whoever was vicious would have more power. Only a period of time after the apocalypse would it become comparable to peacetime. Whoever could give their subordinates more and whoever was smarter and had more brains would become the leaders.
Ten hours ago, Qin Xiaobo was searching for water but the supermarket and stores were mostly occupied by zombie hoards. Someone suggested to head to Pearl Lake. If there weren’t corpses there then the heated water could be drunk. If that method worked then they didn’t need to worry about water.
Thus they came to Pearl Lake and saw that majestic Treasure Basin. At the same time, they found out how to use the demon crystal.
Qin Xiaobo activated it and received a notification.
This was the first time he heard about evolution potions and job scrolls. This made him realise that not only was this world terrifying, but there was also hope.
He knew his skills and spread the news. He told a survivor he met outside the district who told others.
After this, he met the soldiers who came out to search for items.
Qin Xiaobo had a brain so he wanted to work with the army, support them and gain rewards which was the evolution potion.
The motivation of evolving pumped them up and they were the first to rush here.
They arrived here when ten hours were about to be up. Like many people, the sudden light made them temporarily blind.
Once they recovered, Qin Xiaobo saw a meter tall monster with one eye that looked at them with some interest.
Qin Xiaobo was stunned. Right when he was totally confused, he heard the monster mutter about something that he couldn’t understand.
The dumb looking monster looked unhappy and picked up the green horn by its waist to blow.
Only now did Qin Xiaobo notice that this monster was carrying a huge golden bag.
