Chapter 214: Blood Dawn
Jennings did look down on this country even though his country was earning a lot of money from this land.
He felt these people were cowards, greedy, stupid, and had no human rights.
As for him, he had a noble bloodline, and even in the most advanced country, his background allowed him to gain respect.
But now, he ended up in this damn country and was together with these damn yellow-skinned monkeys.
He didn't insult this country. All of these were just what he felt in his heart.
Fortunately, there were gachapons.
Jennings felt like it was the only way the heavens cared for him. After he spent a few days in the apocalypse, they started to kill zombies. After a month, not only did he evolve, but he also had a bunch of decent helpers.
Thus, Jennings thought about becoming a king, ruling these lowly races, and returning to Europe. He would become a family branch that struck back and took over the crown.
But his dream took a small blow on this night. A few of his loyal friends and helpers were killed by those lying Chinese. He wanted revenge.
Such a thought rose in his mind several times until it reached an unstoppable stage, but he still managed to stop himself.
Jennings felt that he was rational and brilliant. He was far smarter than his opponents. He placed himself in a high position, like he was superior to everyone, and made the final choice.
Forget it.
Once he became a two-star evolved, he would take his revenge; he wanted to tell them that people like them couldn't taint his noble blood!
He took out a pistol that he got from the wheel, and Jennings waved. He wanted to bring his men away. Lu Yi, facing off against them, heaved a sigh of relief.
Pa… Gulu…
A ball-shaped thing was tossed over. At night, rough torches were lit up, and the light wasn't very stable. But that light was enough to see the ball on the ground.
It was a head.
A head that was still dripping blood. Its eyes that were not closed were filled with fear.
“This… Wei Xiaoyong?”
Lu Yi and Jennings' eyes constricted. They knew this person; a while ago, he even brought his men over to take a look.
Cries spread out, which broke the silence. They looked toward the sound and saw some people falling to the ground. They were the 'eyes' that Wei Xiaoyong had left here.
A few of them walked over slowly. Jennings and Lu Yi recognized them under Xiao Dong, a girl called Sister Rong.
Although they evolved, Jennings and Lu Yi didn't think this woman had the right to speak to them. In the apocalypse, status was more important than during peacetime.
They looked behind Sister Rong at the person who was killed.
Under the light, her half-human and half-ghost face was seen by all of them.
Many of them were shocked.
.
It was late at night, and a woman with a terrifying face had appeared; no one could maintain calmness.
Sister Rong saw their expression and knew that Xia Bai was there. She sighed and calmed herself, "I am here on behalf of someone; when the sun rises tomorrow, either leave or prepare to get conscripted."
"Not overbearing at all."
A voice muttered. It was Little Tiger who had rushed over to help Sister Rong.
Sister Rong rolled her eyes and was speechless at this young teen.
Lu Yi and Jennings looked at one another and didn't react.
They weren't young kids and wouldn't think Sister Rong had gone mad. Moreover, Wei Xiaoyong's head was under their feet, which was a real threat.
Sister Rong was not used to this situation. She shook her head and led her people away.
She hoped that these two leaders would make the right choice. If not, it would be another day dyed in blood when the sun rose.
…………………………………………………………………………………………
When the first streak of light shone in, Ye Zhongming, Mo Ye, Xia Lei, Little Tiger, Shengyuan, Liang Chuyin, Park Xiuying, Le Dayuan, Candy, Tang Tian, and Le Dayuan's four helpers. Along with Sister Rong, Mo Mo, and Jia Yi, they gathered on the villa's second floor and called for the first meeting since they entered the base.
Xia Lei, Little Tiger, etc., were trusted core members. Candy and Tang Tian had spent some time with them, so their relationship got better. After all, one was a kind girl, and the other cared about his sister. In this team, that was peaceful unless one bullied a member, their sense of safety was pushed to its peak, and they started to rely on this group.
As for Sister Rong, Ye Zhongming's attitude towards them was obvious. If they listened to orders and did things, they could stay here. He would even save them. If not, they could either leave or let the evolution fruit sprout. Then they would turn into new Fake Ghost Trees.
Of course, these were implied, and they didn't need to say it.
"Jennings has around 300 people, Lu Yi has slightly fewer, around two hundred, but people would die daily, so I am not sure exactly how many there are. We have 57, and 42 of them are women."
Sister Rong told the guy sitting in the middle and touching the golden dog this was one of her missions yesterday.
Ye Zhongming nodded. This number was much lesser than what he heard previously—it seemed like Cloud Peak didn't have a good time.
"Jennings is preparing to leave." Xia Bai jumped from the window. Sister Rong and the others saw that face many times, but their expressions twitched when she appeared again.
Xia Lei, Mo Ye, etc., were very interested in the woman Ye Zhongming attracted.
The core members had seen the four wheels. While shocked, they also knew that Ye Zhongming spinned the level two-wheel and got three level two potions.
As the strongest defense and support of the team, Park Xiuying and Shengyuan got one right away. The remaining one was given to the disfigured woman.
They weren't jealous as they knew this guy was really strong, and they would get one in the next few days. Moreover, everyone knew the sequence of getting the potions. A person that just joined had gotten one which made them all very curious. In their minds, they had questions like if this person was similar to Le Dayuan.
After all, only Le Dayuan was especially taken care of before Xia Bai.
"How many?"
"220." Xia Bai stood expressionlessly beside Ye Zhongming. She looked down and didn't even look at her sisters.
"Too many." Ye Zhongming muttered. Xia Bai turned around and jumped from the window.
"She…" Sister Rong stood up and saw the guy's gaze, which made her sit back down.
This isn't for you to care about.
This was the meaning of what he expressed from his gaze.
"Sister Rong." Ye Zhongming looked at this noble-looking woman, "I need you to do something today. Record information about your sisters and their colleagues; I want a detailed copy, including their basic information. More importantly, their past work experience, even what they did during school. What are they good at? What skills? I want to know them all."
This base seemed decent to others. It had a good environment; the facilities were there, a fruit garden, a golf course, farms, natural hot springs, and walls.
But to Ye Zhongming, there were many problems. Just the level two beings outside was a huge problem. Maybe today or tomorrow, they would charge in. After all, the level three life form they feared here was weak. If they stopped hesitating, these fellows who only cared about evolving would take a risk.
What they needed was to strengthen the defense here. To do that, they needed people, and they needed people who were good at something.
"Out of you three, who evolved the earliest?"
Ye Zhongming said a few more things before asking Sister Rong.
Sister Rong was slightly stunned.
"How long? How long since you evolved?"
"Half a month."
Ye Zhongming nodded and didn't say anything else.

Xiang Tao stood opposite Lu Yi, just like during peacetime. The difference was that he didn't understand.
"Uncle Lu, what are we waiting for? Why aren't we leaving?" Since Sister Rong came, Xiang Tao felt this was a good time to leave.
"Didn't we set a plan before? To leave this place and hunt? To find other wheels to be our base."
"If we stay here, we can't even be independent. Even Wei Xiaoyong was killed, we might not be able to go up against these people."
Xiang Tao described his reasoning and hoped to convince this old man.
"Wait a while more."
Lu Yi placed the book down and walked in front of the window. He looked outside, and that was the direction of the meeting area.
"Wait again?"
"Wait!" Lu Yi was firm, "Xiang Tao, you know I have lived for so long and done so much business. Do you know what I learned?"
Xiang Tao shook his head; how would he know?
"When unsure about something, either you give up or wait. Don't gamble on your luck."
"Uncle Lu… You mean?"
Cries and gunshots spread in the distance.
Lu Yi looked at the blood rising and sighed, "Let's go, follow me to meet. Cloud Peak's new king."
