Sha Sha’s expression was solemn when she heard those gunshots. The birthmark on her face looked like shadows of leaves as the light shone on her face, making it easy to overlook.
Ye Zhongming stood a step behind her. Looking at her side view, he felt he was back in the past.
“Your men did this?”
Sha Sha turned her head and looked towards this young man who suddenly appeared in her tent and said he wanted to discuss a deal.
“And also Hungry Tiger Cavalry, Big Kai should have mentioned them to you before.”
Ye Zhongming had a new thought when he saw Sha Sha and Big Kai. Although he knew her from his last life, her personality wouldn’t change. She cared about interests but followed the rules more than many other survivors. Moreover, Ye Zhongming also knew that her subordinates were strong. Although that was in their last life, they won’t be too bad now.
Ye Zhongming was at a moment in time when he needed help. He wasn’t confident in blocking this zombie horde. The consensus of the core members was that even if they wiped out the horde, they would suffer huge losses. After all, 20 thousand zombies weren’t a joke.
He didn’t have any faction he could trust, so that he couldn’t do anything else. But when he saw Sha Sha, he thought of a way to minimize their losses.
Big Kai’s appearance gave him the confidence to convince Sha Sha. As such, he stood here.
The killing shouts weakened. Sha Sha and her men looked at one another in confusion.
.
Tech City Team had moved together with them for several days. They had some conflicts as they were both trying to get benefits from the horde. Only by showing some strength could they get recognized by the other teams and benefit from the horde.
They probed each other. Big Kai’s team gained the respect of others. Her team might be below that of the Tech City Team in terms of strength.
But this guy suddenly appeared here to talk to their boss and even showed his sincerity by killing Big Kai, this…
Many people felt that it was unbelievable.
Gunshots weakened, and no one knew what happened on the other side. But from this guy’s calm expression, one knew the matter was settled.
The battle ended so quickly. Even if they worked with Hungry Tiger Cavalries, their combat strength was quite surprising.
Horse hooves could be heard, and the Hungry Tiger Cavalry and Cloud Peak’s team rushed over.
Ye Zhongming glanced at his men. He told his core members to hold back and try to give the other evolved and everyday warriors a chance to fight. The effect was great. Their faces lacked panic now and were more firm and cold. This was something that one had to have in the apocalypse.
“Boss Ye?”
A guy younger than Ye Zhongming walked over and reached his hand out.
“Young Master Yun.”
The two of them shook hands and smiled at each other.
Ye Zhongming’s mission for Xia Lei was to find Young Master Yun and suggest working together to kill Big Kai. He knew that as long as he wasn’t a fool, Young Master Yun would agree. The attack at the warehouse caused his strength to reduce significantly, and the path ahead was quite clear. Either he leaves this region to survive in another place or wait for Big Kai to kill him.
Now that he had such a chance to solve his problems, this kid naturally wouldn’t miss out.
The outcome proved that his choice was right. He saw Big Kai get killed by a woman from Cloud Peak. She stuck her mouth like a blade into his mouth and through his neck. This sent a chill down his spine. Her violent killing method terrified Young Master Yun.
“You want us to work together? What will I get in return?”
Sha Sha covered the shock in her eyes and asked Ye Zhongming.
Young Master Yun looked at them and didn’t know whether to leave or stay.
“If Young Master Yun wants, you can stay and listen.”
Ye Zhongming returned to Sha Sha, “My goal is this zombie horde. If we work together, you need to help me defend.”
Young Master Yun and Sha Sha both frowned.
They knew how strong the zombie horde was. Wouldn’t they be risking their lives? Both of them were hesitant.
“You don’t have to worry so much. Cloud Peak is mine, so I will lead my men to defend. All of you can see the situation. At most, you can leave. If you can fight, then fight; if not, then run. No matter how we think about you, all of you don’t have any burden, right?”
Ye Zhongming smiled, “Of course, there will be some risk. If we can’t defend Cloud Peak, my men and I will die, and you won’t benefit. So for your interests, you must try your best to fight before the situation gets out of hand.”
Young Master Yun and Sha Sha felt the negotiation was in his hands, and they couldn’t find a way to step in.
“If you help me, naturally, you will benefit. If you can ensure that no less than 30 people join in, then after the battle ends, I will give each of you ten one-star evolution potions. I will add one more potion for every ten evolved joining in. Thirty more guns, and I will add one more potion too.”
“Of course, the spoils of war would belong to us, and you won’t have the right to clear the battlefield. If you leave halfway, but we win, then sorry, I won’t give anything to you.”
Young Master Yun bit his teeth, “I can agree to such conditions, but I don’t want so many potions. Just five is enough. I want the weapon that Big Kai used, and I want it now.”
Ye Zhongming looked toward Xia Lei and the others. One of them took out the spear that Xia Bai was holding.
He glanced at it before tossing it to Young Master Yun.
This weapon had a passive toss skill that Ye Zhongming had no interest in.
Young Master Yun was delighted when he grabbed it. He didn’t care about the negotiation and just led his men aside to await instructions.
“How confident are you?” Sha Sha asked carefully, “If you have more than 50% confidence, I will take a gamble.”
“Then happy cooperation.” Ye Zhongming reached his hand out. Sha Sha hesitated, and when they shook hands, Ye Zhongming’s heart jumped due to the warmth from her palm.
“This is for you; you can consider it as a downpayment. A two-star evolved but not immune, that is very dangerous.”
Ye Zhongming smiled, leaving Sha Sha stunned as she looked at the immunity potion.
……………………………………………………………………
This morning was a heavy one for many people in Cloud Peak.
That was because they knew that they had to fight to the death.
The team gathered at the main gate. Twenty people stood at the front, and they seemed a little excited.
Ye Zhongming gave 20 of them one-star potions to thank them for their performance chasing away the two factions behind the horde.
Da Ding and Tong Hu lost their alliance with Big Kai and Sha Sha and weren’t a threat to Cloud Peak. Tong Hu left right away. Da Ding wanted to see the situation but was sneak attacked by Little Tiger and Xia Bai. He left after suffering huge losses.
Today, a pure human versus zombie battle would arrive.
Twenty people evolved in front of everyone, which helped to raise morale.
“I hope that after today’s battle, more of you will evolve because of how courageous and determined you are today. You will become the core of Cloud Peak.” Ye Zhongming waved. Liang Chuyin and Park Xiuying both walked forwards with plates.
“These are 50 immunity potions that will be given to those who fight close up with the zombies today. When the battle ends, you will get an evolution potion.”
Many people were tempted. Although they knew it was dangerous and there was a high chance that they would die, the opportunity to evolve was before them, and they could reach it.
Many people choose to gamble. If they injected the potion, they must be at the front.
“Kill them all.”
Cloud Peak’s battle squad followed the plan and entered their fixed positions.
When the sun rose into the sky, Mo Ye, the commander of the first defense line, fired the first gun. The battle between zombies and humans exploded at that moment!
