Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 223: Battle for grain

Sister Rong and Mo Mo, who were now proper one-star evolved, tossed meat off a pickup truck to attract the zombie horde. Beside them were Mo Ye and Tang Tian, who were standing up to prevent accidents from happening. As Jia Yi just did her surgery, she hadn't healed up and was left home.

Within the steel-covered car, windows were evolved that drove while looking back at the horde through the back mirror.

Gunshots could be heard.

"500 more meters, and then we will leave!"

Mo Ye slapped the roof to inform the driver.

Once they were there, their mission would be completed. The sound from the military storage would draw the zombies over, reducing the pressure on the grain storage.

It wasn't them conning others, and it wasn't them spoiling their plan to clear the Demon Monsters. If these people could kill those Demon Monsters, Ye Zhongming was happy to see that happen.

But the truth was, that bunch might not succeed!

Ye Zhongming was used to using all the resources that he could use. When he saw the position of Yingchun County Grain Storage, he decided to use this to attack the team attacking the Demon Monsters.

The team from Cloud Peak would try their best to draw the zombie horde to around two kilometers to the army warehouse. This distance in front of the vast wilderness was enough to draw the zombie horde to gunshots. As they didn't walk quickly, this distance was enough for them to walk for a long time. Moreover, as there were obstacles, the zombies might not even reach that place before their fight ended.

To Ye Zhongming, this was the only value of their fight destined to fail.

Without many zombies, they had a significant chance on this side.

Of course, it wasn't so simple to attract the zombie horde. They couldn't draw all of them away at once, so the fact that they drew a few thousand away was quite decent.

Xia Bai squatted on the corner of the pickup, her hands hugging her knees and her head buried into her legs.

She was not used to exposing herself to sunlight. To her, darkness was the best environment.

It sounded simple to draw the zombies but hard to execute. More high-level zombies appeared, so Ye Zhongming had to step in. He couldn't place too many of the main force here as that would affect those attacking the grain storage. He also couldn't ignore the high-level zombies, so he sent Xia Bai here.

Xia Bai was distant from them, but be it Mo Ye and the others she had just met or people like Sister Rong, who she had known for a long time. They didn't speak at all when they sat in the same vehicle.

Mo Ye and the others were okay; they had just met and weren't close. But Sister Rong felt terrible. They were sisters, and now things were like that. But there was no point in thinking so much; she could only sigh.

They traveled slowly for a while, and the gunshots became clearer. They tossed a few more pieces of meat and left quickly. They used the path they had scouted in advance to join the fight at the grain storage.

"Quick."

Xia Bai stood up and said those words. That stunned everyone, and they didn't know what happened.

Xia Bai jumped on the truck's roof and turned back towards where they just drove by. Killing intent surged from her body.

Mo Ye didn't sense anything, but as a cop, she still told the driver to speed up.

"Leave first." Xia Bai said that before she jumped off the car towards where they came from.

"Xia Bai." Sister Rong shouted, but Xia Bai disappeared. She wanted to care for her sister, who had changed but couldn't find a suitable way.

……………………………………………………………………………………

Little Tiger and Xiang Tao jumped from the grain storage. Each one of them had a rope. Four other evolved helped to clear the zombies around them.

The two of them hung the rope on lamps on the side of the street. They also entered the rooms on the sides before heading toward their next target.

Le Dayuan was nearby, leading a few people with pushcarts to push the sandbags to specific locations. They stacked them up before they retreated.

On the other side of the granary, Liang Chuyin and a few others were doing the same as Mo Ye. The difference was that they were on foot. They also weren't too far from Ye Zhongming's team. They led a few zombies away before turning back and repeating their actions. Shengyuan was with them. Although this big fellow was a defensive two-star evolved, he could still help them tank if they faced dangers. If they encountered higher-level mutated lifeforms, he could help cover them until they retreated to a safe place.

On the path from Yingchun County Grain Storage to Cloud Peak were many coolies digging holes. Dozens of large pits were dug out, two meters deep. On the surface was a meter-wide board for survivors to pass. Many strong coolies were at sitting at the side of the holes and waiting for their turn.

On the other side were heavy trucks; each had two soldiers with guns that looked around warily.

Cloud Peak sent nearly everyone out for this battle. There were only five evolved and a dozen soldiers back at the base. The other hundred were just weak or injured coolies.

Killing shouts spread from ahead. Candy and Lu Yi shouted at the coolies digging holes to ask them to speed up. That would help the people to retreat.

At this point, Ye Zhongming and his tea were like spikes stabbing in. Ye Zhongming was at the front. This was a siege, and they didn't have to defend, so the strongest would naturally lead the way. Behind him as LIttle Tiger and Yellow Ball. Further behind were the original evolved from Cloud Peak. They formed a sharp outer shell. The others who didn't evolve but had experienced the few battles over the past few days were in the inner shell. Each of them had metal spears that they used to attack mutated lifeforms.

Park Xiuying was in the middle. When needed, she would use Diamond Shield or Cleansing Dew.

With Ye Zhongming in the front, this team was unstoppable. They sliced into the zombie horde like they were tofu. Black blood and broken limbs scattered in the sky. In just a moment, stacks of zombies covered the path ahead.

Although he had many evolution potions, he only rewarded two good performers. That is because he had to give them a lesson. There was a sequence of rewards and punishments. Once this battle ended, he would increase the number of evolved at scale.

But Ye Zhongming gave the immunity potions out without restriction. As long as you fought for them, you would get the potion. Thus, the warriors didn't fear anything; they didn't have to worry about being infected when they fought.

Ye Zhongming charged a hundred meters before slowing down as those behind couldn't keep up. This made him feel a little unfortunate.

The battle would be easy initially as the zombie horde didn't gather. The moment it started, they would still draw mutated lifeforms around, even if he told them not to use guns. They would be under more pressure when the zombie horde gathered.

But they had no choice. He couldn't use his two-star evolved standards to require the others to do as well.

Since they slowed down, Ye Zhongming told Little Tiger to replace him. He started to move around to help out areas that were under pressure. He would help fight against the higher-level mutated lifeforms. Although this team didn't charge as quickly as before, they still pushed forwards easily.

As they were in the zombie horde, one evolved was suddenly pierced by a black spike. He cried out. Ye Zhongming immediately broke the spike, which caused the level-two zombie to scream and retreat into the horde.

Park Xiuying rushed over and used Gentle Chain. That spike only hit the shoulder and wasn't a fatal spot. With the evolved heal, the wound healed quickly, and there was just one small wound after three seconds.

"Are you okay?'

Ye Zhonging asked the person who pressed onto his shoulder and was about to switch the spear over to his other hand.

"No problem!"

He shouted and thrust his spear into the eye of a zombie.

He felt like he was being flung behind when he pulled it out. When he stood still, he noticed that Ye Zhongming was standing where he was, and a potion was in his hands.

"You have a minute to evolve!"

The guy was stunned for a moment before joy surged into his heart. The 40-year-old guy started to cry.

He tried hard to live in the apocalypse and knew what evolution meant. This small potion could mean that he would survive.

He stabbed it into his neck and injected it in. Power surged into his body that was previously injured and in pain.

This modified potion didn't need much time to consume, just that the process would hurt more. A few seconds later, the team had one more one-star evolved.

This made the others excited and tempted. The entire team fought even harder, and they were much quicker. In just a moment, they were 50 meters ahead.

"Boss, we see the gate!"

Little Tiger hollered, and Ye Zhongming looked over. A three-meter door gate could be seen.
