Apocalypse Gachapon
Chapter 1017: Ye Zhongming's idea

“With the wheel as the center, the monsters are gathered around it. Although we drew many of them away, they were from one direction, and many desert monsters remain.”

Since sharing a bath with Ye Zhongming, Xia Bai and her men were closer to him. It wasn’t that they weren’t willing to get close to him in the past; they didn’t dare to, or rather, they respected him more.

Now, he was more like an older brother, someone they spent much time with, family, a loved one. This was the case, although many of them were older than him.

Daizhi said these. She disagreed with Ye Zhongming taking the risk. Many agreed. Their suggestion was for them to clear these monsters bit by bit, and only after it was safe would Ye Zhongming enter the wheel.

They couldn’t do anything about the dangers inside the wheel, but they could control them outside. They hoped to create conditions that would keep Ye Zhongming safer.

Apart from the majority's view, Xia Bai had her own thoughts. She wanted to head into the wheel instead of Ye Zhongming.

No one else would give that suggestion, not even Xia Bai. This meant that if Xia Bai succeeded, the Star Elf would belong to her. Even if you trusted someone, facing such a treasure, this sentence would draw suspicion.

Xia Lei and the others had high EQ and naturally wouldn’t touch this topic. But Xia Bai didn’t care. Her heart was never on the Star Elf but Ye Zhongming’s safety.

She wanted to take the risk for Ye Zhongming. After all, she was also a seven-star evolved. Even if she was slightly weaker than Ye Zhongming, it wasn’t a big gap. If even she couldn’t survive, then it would be a signal to Ye Zhongming not to enter.

As for getting the Star Elf. To Xia Bai, this was no different from Ye Zhongming getting it. She would still listen to him to use it as she felt like even she was Ye Zhongming’s, much less an elemental spirit.

Ye Zhongming could understand, so he rejected it.

It wasn’t because he was jealous that Xia Bai might get something good. He knew that if Xia Bai entered, there was an 80% chance she would die.

It wasn’t him overthinking, but it was the actual situation.

Why were the West Asians only able to get temporary control of the Star Elf and not full control? They also had seven-star evolved and due to their special situation, these people would hog most of the interests. This extreme was something that China couldn’t imagine.

In China, the leader gets the bone, and his subordinates get soup. But here, the royal family or the religion doesn’t even give them soup.

This meant that the top evolved wouldn’t be weak. Along with region-specific products like Sandman, Ye Zhongming didn’t think they would be weaker than China.

So why were they still able to only get temporary control? Why did they allow the Mother Wheel to reproduce and move their base?

Apart from Sheikha Saeed's reasons, Ye Zhongming was sure of one point: This Mother Wheel wasn’t easy to clear. The West Asians tried and didn’t succeed.

To Ye Zhongming, Xia Bai was at most on their level. With her personality, she wouldn’t head out if she didn’t succeed. So it would be too dangerous if she entered, and there was a high chance that she would die.

Ye Zhongming naturally wouldn’t let that happen.

Although he didn’t reject them outright, his silence expressed his attitude.

After seeing that the Saint City army was forced away to the distance he wanted, he gave a series of orders.

Cloud Peak spread in small teams and drew desert monsters over to reduce the density around the Mother Wheel.

Xia Bai led one of them and led the monsters near the turrets to use them to destroy them and obtain the companion crystals.

Ye Zhongming also attacked, and he went to deal with some higher-level sand monsters.

This process was very boring and dangerous. If they didn’t draw the monsters properly, it would cause a large amount of them to move. This was very dangerous for the few hundred Cloud Peak warriors.

Fortunately, Xia Bai’s squad was experienced at this. Their equipment was good, too, and everything proceeded smoothly.

Crystal weapons had a huge effect on this special battle.

They gave out a small sound and wouldn’t alert monsters. This also ensured that they could successfully draw- clear- draw- clear the monsters.

The crystal grenades also increased the killing efficiency. In just that short while, they obtained more companion crystals than the entire journey before.

Of course, this was because Cloud Peak was rich. If not, the crystal weapons consumption was enough to bankrupt organizations.

Apart from level six crystals, Ye Zhongming would split them into two. One portion was used as their ammo.

Two hours later, Saint City’s army was at a safe enough distance, and Ye Zhongming began his plan.

He merged the companion crystals, and finally, a level nine companion crystal appeared in his hands.

This could ensure that he could spin the wheel once.

Moreover, he thought about it. Why could you spin the Mother Wheel? Wasn’t that the ability of an ordinary wheel?

Finally, he thought of one possibility, which was the only one. One that Sheikha Saeed didn’t tell him.

It wasn’t a simple spin, but… A key.

Or rather, a pass to enter the Star Mother Wheel space!

With this level-nine companion crystal, it was time to prove his conjecture.

He told Xia Bai and the others to continue killing desert monsters. He recalled the Exquisite Floating Ball and entered it. It flew above the Star Mother Wheel and then jumped down!
