What he couldn’t deny was that the moment he grabbed the Monster Baby, Ye Zhongming felt the most emotions he had since he revived.
He knew that he had grabbed a huge treasure trove.
The Monster Baby was like a bug in the apocalypse. Only people who had been through it would know that one had to pay a huge price to get it.
In the last life, Ye Zhongming joined the operation to kill it. Each time it would cause a war between organisations, teams, zombies, monsters etc. All the things that were wrapped up in it will end up killing one another.
A war that had over 60% casualties!
Yes, each Monster Baby battle was a meat grinder.
Use some tempting rewards to attract living beings to kill one another. This Monster Baby was a bug? It was there to mock people and start wars?
Maybe the final winner would think that it is cute.
Would he be the winner today?
This was a thought that flashed across his mind after he decided on this plan. The moment he grabbed the Monster Baby, he finally had a feeling that he would be the winner.
But that lasted for just a short second before he was covered by a sense of danger!
He tried to shift his body to the side. His eyes lit up and his hand felt light.
The Monster Baby fell to the ground and it struggled while crying out in pain.
Ye Zhongming was knocked to the side by the struggling Monster Baby and he was in cold sweat.
He saw that one arm of the Monster Baby was sliced off and it was bleeding profusely. Where it bled was right where Ye Zhongming grabbed.
This meant that if he didn’t dodge, the thing sliced wouldn’t be the monster’s hand but his!
What was that sharp light from the sky?
“Scram and I will let you live!”
A man with a thick and hoarse voice attracted Ye Zhongming’s gaze.
Three people got close. The leader was a muscular bear-like guy who was in a black vest. He had military pants and his black boots stepped on the ground.
Behind him was a guy and a girl. The guy was around the same age as the leader, around 27. He was holding a spear, its tip pointed at the ground as he stared at Ye Zhongming.
On the other side was a girl in a mechanic uniform. She wasn’t old and her hair was dyed red. It danced in the wind as she moved. The tight uniform wrapped her body. She held her right hand up and it was shining bright! The energy fluctuation was similar to the sharp light from before!
Ye Zhongming’s heart sank, he could sense that the three of them were evolved. The guy with the spear was a person with the job. That girl had a terrifying attack skill.
The leader was the strong guy and even his men were someone with a job and another with an attack skill. So could the boss be weak?
The three of them were vicious and it was obvious that they were well-adapted to the apocalypse.
Why did they suddenly pop up?
Ye Zhongming saw them get close. He didn’t bother about their warning and just grabbed, wanting to grab the golden bag.
But the three of them wouldn’t let Ye Zhongming get it. That girl waved and the light shone once more. It was really quick and it forced Ye Zhongming to retract his hand.
That delay meant that they got close. The guy with the spear shouted as he jumped, the spear turning into a silver dragon that stabbed Ye Zhongming. That move had a huge aura that sent fear into one’s heart.
The strong guy at the front, the spearman’s strike in the sky and the girl’s right hand storing up energy once more. Ye Zhongming had to retreat.
If his right hand was still okay, he might be able to deal with them but he only had one usable hand and his strength was greatly reduced. Apart from retreating, there was nothing he could do.
He retreated but he did something first.
He kicked the Monster Baby first before retreating!
The Monster Baby wasn’t tall and it was light. It had lost an arm so it flew far when Ye Zhongming kicked it.
The three of them were stunned and didn’t expect him to do such a thing even when he was under threat of getting badly injured or even killed.
But when they looked toward where the Monster Baby landed, they understood.
A bunch of soldiers were rushing over and the leading soldier had stepped into the square!
“Wang Ding, that is the monster, grab its bag!”
Li Shujun raised his head. He realised that three people had appeared from nowhere and the target they were chasing was flying towards Wang Ding so he just shouted.
.
“Your sister!” The leader of the three person group shouted at Ye Zhongming but all he saw in return was Ye Zhongming laughing.
Their goal was to snatch the treasure and not kill the strong Ye Zhongming. Although he hated Ye Zhongming for that kick but there was nothing he could do. He could only lead his men toward the Treasure Baby.
If they were slow then someone would snatch it.
Li Shujun raised his gun and wanted to stop them but he turned and looked at the square. He immediately told his men to put the gun down as he had an idea.
Wang Ding’s left hand was bleeding. Before heading here he didn’t know where the true treasure was so he chose the most eye catching Chain Prisoner. But right away his elite squad lost two evolved members.
This was a special team made specially by Captain Ye and they were in charge of the final hit for the treasure! For this, Captain Ye paid a huge price, risking lives to kill zombies and get the crystals. He focused all the gains on this team. When the Zombie Ape appeared, they thought that the treasure would be on it but then the Chain Prisoner made them shift their target.
Until he got Li Shujun’s report did they realise that the true treasure was on the back of a small monster?
Thus they gave up on the unstoppable Chain Prisoner. The price was that the 8-person team was left with four. That was four one star evolved, just thinking about it made Wang Ding’s heart bleed.
As he got a special card, Wang Ding reached level two in just a day. He thought that no one would be his match but his pride was smashed. He felt like he was a monkey being played. He was a fool that fought the strongest monster while others knew where the treasure was at.
Fortunately, he wasn’t late!
He shouted and sped up. He passed the Monster Baby and knocked the three-person team. He believed that his allies will get the treasure. He just had to create a chance for his allies.
