Apocalypse Gachapon

Ye Zhongming compromised on things such as payment time and details to calm these deacons down.

He was confident in the Cloud Peak delicacy and didn’t worry much about these details.

Although he said there was no bargaining, if it couldn’t tempt the three deacons, it was no different from him bragging.

They were happy to agree to that price because Cloud Peak delicacy broke some fixed thoughts.

That thing was called order.

Since the start of the apocalypse, the wheel has formed an order on Earth. Everything follows the wheel, and its rules replace all other rules.

From potions, scrolls, bloodlines, and skills to various equipment and battle beasts and then mutated lifeforms and beasts.

Everything was arranged for the wheels. Their familiar world was gone, and no one could change anything. All humans could do was follow the requirements of the wheel to evolve, learn, create, and live.

Slowly, everyone was used to such changes and rules.

However, the three deacons noticed some differences from what Ye Zhongming said and from their body’s changes.

This thing changed some recipes.

Like gene lifeform and crystal weapons, it changed the rules of the wheel!

One or two types might be luck, and maybe some of Earth\'s smartest people saw loopholes around the wheel.

But what about the third item? Would that be the same? Did Cloud Peak grasp some secret? A secret that could break the chains of the wheel?

This thought flashed in their hearts, but they didn’t confirm anything. But with this thought, the few of them were willing to spend money to invest and gamble. Anyway, they wouldn’t lose much.

Thus, the discussion on the price was so simple.

Finally, both sides talked about the control of Bright Water World. Ye Zhongming was firm and used his information about this place to agree with the three deacons.

In their agreement, Five Ring Money would help Ye Zhongming go where he wanted to. They would even pay a huge sum to purchase his completion rate and promise.

The promise was that Ye Zhonmging wouldn’t spoil Five Ring Money’s operation, and when needed, he would help them solve a few tough dungeons.

“Mr Ye, why do I feel we are signing an unequal agreement.”

Both sides agreed and formed a genuine connection; they were even closer when they talked. Deacon Ouyang shook his head while joking as Ye Zhongming walked out.

Ye Zhongming smiled and didn’t explain anything. He said, “In the future, you will know that many things have different meanings. If you look back, I might be the one losing out.”

Everyone laughed and walked out. They settled on the time to head to the dungeon before splitting up.

Looking at the backs of Ye Zhongming’s group, the smile on the faces of the three deacons disappeared. Deacon Ouyang and Deacon Water looked toward Deacon Tong.

This person nodded solemnly.

“This Cloud Peak boss knows Bright Water World more than we think. I signaled to all of you because I knew the things he said. But if he wanted to, he could cause huge problems for us. Rather than that, why not work with him? Although we will have some losses, it isn\'t much compared to losing control of this place.”

After explaining this, Deacon Tong continued, “Logically speaking, outsiders shouldn’t know so much. If we didn’t leak it, this means many things.”

He pointed at the sky and looked tired, “If we don’t need to fight with this faction, then let’s not. Things in the future are too complicated, and no one knows.”

The other two deacons nodded and didn’t say anything else.

“Boss, we might get more if we do it ourselves.”

Zhao Xiangxue accompanied Ye Zhongming. She didn’t understand why Ye Zhongming gave up on some dungeons. She felt like the boss could obtain many benefits.

Ye Zhongming looked ahead and heard the music from a bar. Although it was far away, he could still hear the strong tempo.

Many people were releasing stress there.

“It isn’t so simple. It looks like we are giving up on some stuff now, but what did we give up? We think we can get these things but have not obtained them. Even if we don’t give up, we might not get them. Moreover, think about it. The higher we go, the more dangerous the dungeons will be, and the more we will clash with Five Ring Money. Before we even trade with them, our relationship will crack. That isn’t good. We do have to earn money from them.”

Gao Yi and Zhao Xiangxue nodded. They understood that theory but weren’t willing to give things up.

“Also, we don’t have many people. We are under huge pressure in the Secret Realm, so we must conserve some strength. Who knows how many losses we will suffer if we take down all those resource points? Potions, puppets, and equipment are all cost. It is worth it to get some money to support us there.”

Ye Zhongming stopped explaining. He knew that he had another goal: to reveal some information to see what would happen in the future. The few deacons and him all looked into the sky.

After discussing all that, Ye Zhongming completed most of his goals here. Since there was some time until the dungeons opened, he found Li Qiang. He had already ‘bought’ him from Five Ring Money.

“Boss Ye, I recalled something else.”

“What?”

“I saw a lifeform on that ship!”
