Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1154: Not willing to accept being managed

Many people entered with Ye Zhongming. Apart from Zhao Xiangxue, Gao Yi, and Li Qiang, the Nalan Battle Squad did too.

Mei Na and Gan Lan followed Ye Zhongming because he requested it.

He wanted to come to the City of Color, a place with high fighting intensity. He hoped to have someone help him relieve some of the pressure.

He did not consider whether Nalan Battle Squad could handle this test. There would always be sacrifices, which were okay as long as they weren’t his own people.

Of course, he would definitely compensate them afterward.

But when he looked at their 150-person squad, he couldn’t help but have some respect for her. But most of it was him being speechless.

This group was too balanced.

The lowest evolved was four-star, and the highest was five-star…

Such a structure was similar to battle squads in Cloud Peak, where the leaders were higher and the warriors were lower. That was okay because this was a normal gap.

In terms of balance, Cloud Peak should be quite highly ranked out of super factions. But in Cloud Peak, there was still a clear gap. From the highest seven-star to one-star evolved, they had people of each level.

Even if everyone evolved in the future, the lowest level one and two would disappear, but the gap would still exist.

For example, due to the differences in rank, there was a clear path to promotion in the army. That gave people hope instead of thinking good things would fall from the sky.

If that were the case, then any organisation would collapse.

Although Ye Zhongming sacrificed a lot for his subordinates, his combat strength was still leading. Only Xia Bai was similar in strength to him a while ago, but special circumstances caused that. Moreover,e he had never doubted her loyalty.

But Nalan Battle Squad was an organisation. Maintaining such a close level gap might work in a short time. Gan Lan and Mei Na could still lead; the others would be grateful for their help and would still listen to them.

But what if time went on? Or if their evolution levels were the same or even exceeded Gan Lan and Mei Na?

Would they still be willing to listen to them? Moreover, Gan Lan and Mei Na looked so good, and it was easy for guys to have bad thoughts.

Things were okay now, but problems had already started. Apart from these two women, there were other five-star evolved in her squad. Even Ye Zhongming could see their arrogance. They only retracted it when they looked at him.

Ye Zhongming didn’t know if they had observed those signs, but this was a huge problem.

As for that bit of respect, it was because the two of them gave up their chance to evolve to strengthen their subordinates. This helped to increase their rankings, but they weren’t too strong personally.

It didn’t mean that they gave up on a six-star potion. They just used the crystals they gained, so they were unable to save anything.

Ye Zhongming treated this as a chance to help them clean their house.

“This is the City of Color. Everything around you might be an enemy. They would transform to attack us, so be careful.”

Ye Zhongming said what he knew. He didn’t care about their safety, but it didn’t mean he wanted them to die here. Living longer and helping him do some stuff was naturally better.

“There isn’t a good way to solve this place. We can only fight through it bit by bit. Destroy this city, and we can get the final reward.”

Mei Na and Gan Lan nodded and expressed that they understood. They had benefitted from Hundred Cave Swamp and knew that this guy wouldn’t mistreat people who helped him. The two women were wearing equipment that he had given them.

So they didn't bring up the 10% reward he had promised.

But even if they wanted to help Ye Zhongming clear Bright Water World, her subordinates might not.

“Boss Ye, we are helping you fight, so should you tell us how the rewards are distributed?”

A muscular guy spoke up. Ye Zhongming glanced. He was one of those arrogant five-star evolved.

Gan Lan’s expression changed, and chided, “Qing Yu, shut up!”

Mei Na also stared at him.

But the two bosses failed to keep him quiet, and he rolled his eyes, “Big sis, second sis, it is better to make such things clear. If not, things will be messy. What if this Boss Ye goes against his word? You don’t hope our work will go to waste, right? This isn’t a small thing; people will die.”

Qiang Yu wouldn’t dare to say this outside. He didn’t have the confidence against a seven-star evolved.

But Bright Water World was special; they couldn’t attack each other. Even if he offended someone, there was nothing they could do. At most, he would be more careful when he got out. Anyways, there were a few entrances. If he went far away, what could the expert do?

“Boss Ye, do you agree?”

Qiang Yu saw many people nodding in agreement and got even more confident. He even provocatively asked Ye Zhongming.

Ye Zhongming didn’t say anything.

“Boss Ye, you…”

“Who are you to speak to, my boss?” A gun appeared in Li Qiang’s hand. He arrived beside Qiang Yu in a blink and pointed it at his head. He gritted his teeth like he wanted to bite someone.

This was a great chance to perform. Li Qiang saw that Zhao Xiangxue and Gao Yi hadn’t said anything, so he was happy to step out.

Qiang Yu was not prepared because they couldn’t attack each other here. But it didn’t feel good for someone to point a gun at his head. He waved and knocked Li Qiang’s arm aside, shouting, “Who are you? You dare to point your gun at me?”

Even if some people couldn’t accept Qiang Yu being rude to Mei Na and Gan Lan, they belonged to the same battle squad. Seeing someone threaten their own people, a few warriors surrounded and looked fierce.

Gan Lan and Mei Na didn’t expect things to happen like this. They were even thinking about killing Qiang Yu. They wanted to speak, but Gao Yi was faster.

“I will kill you when I get out and feed your intestines to the Cannibal Flowers under Cloud Peak.”
