Chapter 41: Metal Shield
Ye Zhongming recognised this light colored liquid, it was the immunity potion. Or rather, it wasn’t a total immunity.
After using the potion, normal zombie virus wouldn’t infect the human. But if one wasn’t lucky and too much virus entered his body within a short time, he would also lose the immunity effect.
In level two and above gachapons, there was a totally pink liquid which was the full immunity potion.
This thing was a really good thing in the initial stages. Even in the next few years, it was one of the essential items.
What Ye Zhongming was interested in was the two pieces of equipment on the gachapon. The metal shield and also the jade green necklace.
Especially the latter. The green necklace gave off a white light.
Basic white colored equipment?
Wasn’t that on the same level as the blade?
Ye Zhongming’s Glory Smith job was what gave him the white colored weapon. To get such a strong weapon after just ten hours of the apocalypse, although he didn’t dare say he was the only one but he was definitely the rare few.
Ye Zhongming spent a lot of mental energy to obtain such a weapon.
There was actually another white equipment placed in front of him so obviously he was tempted.
As compared to this green necklace, that shield was much worse. It looked like a grey grade weapon.
He took out all of his crystals as well as those scattered around the gachapon. He counted and he had enough to spin twice. But there were at least four items that he wanted her so he didn’t have enough demon crystals. He had to return in the future.
With the energy to spin the wheel, the huge needle started to spin past the ten regions. After removing one option, the needle stopped at the rope.
Ye Zhongming didn’t even blink and continued to spin once more.
The spinning wheel depended on luck. If one was lucky, one could get the best items on it. If one was unlucky, you could spin dozens of times and not get what one wanted.
Once the gachapon activated once more, that metal shield dropped out in the item box.
Naturally, the green necklace was the best item from this wheel. Next was the one star strengthening potion and the partial immunity potion. This shield was the 4th best item.
He got this after two spins so he was quite okay with his gains.
The shield was greyish black and it was an arm shield that was similar to the size of a plate. On close look, one could see the greyish light. With Ye Zhongming’s experience, he could tell that its defence was not bad. At least it could block the tongue of a level two Iron Arm and also the tongue of the Blood Tongue Lizard.
After wearing the shield on his left hand, Ye Zhonging came to the window to take a look. The sky had a pale white color like that of the belly of a fish. The movement within the school had calmed down. At a few places were zombies chomping on corpses. Other zombies had split up and were searching for food.
He came back to the small window that he came in from and threw the rope down. He waved at the three girls to tell them to come up. As for Yellow Ball, he was left downstairs as a sentry.
The three of them took turns climbing up. Mo Ye was good at it. This height was easily cleared by her. What surprised Ye Zhongming was Liang Chuyin. She looked tired but that didn’t cover her devilish body. She was actually strong too. Although she didn’t do it as cleanly as Mo Ye, but she was able to come up smoothly. The only one who struggled was Teacher Park. She probably trained usually if not she wouldn’t have such a nice body but her arm strength was lacking. She was halfway through and she ran out of strength, needing Ye Zhongming to pull her up.
“Go find a suitcase and fill it up with food and water. We can also bring some daily items, leave the rest.”
A night passed and survivors started to worry about food and water. In the next few days, they would target supermarkets, fruit stores, department stores etc. The final outcome would be that many zombies would be drawn over and they would gather at these places.
This situation made food and water even more scarce. Ye Zhongming had to store up supplies before all that.
Although you could get them on the gachapon but the amount was too little. It was basically just one bag of bread or one bottle of water.
Ye Zhongming’s performance in the apocalypse filled Mo Ye with respect. Liang Chuyin who listened to him from the start followed and they got a bag to search. Teacher Park stood there for a moment before she started to make a move too.
On the first floor, they finally saw that wheel.
The three girls were stunned. They couldn’t imagine such a thing. They touched the wheel and all of them had complicated expressions.
Mo Ye looked at the things on it and also the shield on Ye Zhongming’s left hand. Along with the rope, no matter how dumb she was, she knew that they came from the wheel.
“The thing that gives strength is this potion right?”
She pointed at the light green and light pink potions and said out her conjunction. The other two girls also guessed that and they needed Ye Zhongming’s reply.
“More accurately, it is this light green one. The light pink one is an immunity potion so that you can be immune to the zombie infection and not turn into a zombie.”
Their eyes lit up. Different from Ye Zhongming was that they were more interested in the immunity potions than the one star strengthening potions.
Women…. Ye Zhongming shook his head.
“Kill zombies, spin the wheel, become strong…” Mo Ye looked at the gachapon and muttered, “Why does it feel like…”
“Like being controlled.” Ye Zhongming pulled up the zip of the bag.
“Right, you…”
Mo Ye’s determined gaze turned into shock, she was even hiding some terror. She had the same reaction toward the unknown as everyone.
Ye Zhongming stared viciously at the gachapon, “I will drag them out.”
The four of them each carried one big bag and climbed out from the supermarket. With Ye Zhongming’s lead, they left the school and at that moment, the sun was already rising. Everything was revealed and the three girls were shocked by what they saw.
Everything was covered in a layer of blood and broken arms were scattered all around. There were cars all around and the floor was covered in broken glass…
“You need to adapt, this world… Will be like this in the future, even worse than this.”
The atmosphere became silent. Ye Zhongming knew that these women were still trying to adapt. In the past, he was the same.
Back to Dingsheng Apartments, when he passed the seven story apartments, Liang Chuyin opened her mouth but didn’t say anything. She bought a house here. For her who grew up in a village, this was the fruit of her labor and she was very much attached to it.
But she also understood that the house was meaningless now.
When they came to Mu Xinfei’s villa, Ye Zhongming took a casual look but his expression changed straight away and he hid to a side.
Something had entered the villa previously!
