Chapter 1109: Collapse
“Such a situation continued into the apocalypse. I realized that no one would care if you knew how to drink. No one cared about your wine knowledge. They cared about your evolution level.”
“So my goals changed, and I desired strength. Thinking back, everything is the same. It is the survival of the fittest. Many people have previously talked about this, and they don’t understand it very well. But the apocalypse enlightened them, which was why everyone chased strength even if they needed to risk their lives.”
“If you didn’t take risks, you would still lose your life.”
Deacon Tong looked at the guy opposite him and praised, “I am curious. The low-level dungeon reward tempts you so much? You don’t want to work with the most elite people in the world to get better benefits? Mr Ye Zhongming, can you give me a logical explanation?”
Ye Zhongming smiled, “The Lord’s Case rewards are quite decent.”
Deacon Tong’s expression changed, and he took a deep breath. “That is because you don’t know the rewards of the advanced regions. Do you know that in the past 40 hours, someone has obtained a six-star potion, and someone got a golden piece of equipment?”
Ye Zhongming shrugged and didn’t say anything. He took the half bottle of wine before Deacon Tong. He didn’t use a glass and just took a gulp.
Deacon Tong stared at him expressionlessly.“Not as nice as Sour Plum Juice.”
Ye Zhongming cleaned his mouth and placed the bottle back on the table.
“Do you know how much this bottle will cost in the apocalypse?” he asked, placing his hands on the table and leaning forward.
“I don’t know, I have never drank it before. But I know this thing isn’t worth a one-star potion to me.”
Deacon Tong kept silent and laughed suddenly.
“I want to use this bottle of wine to express my desire for Bright Water World. Mr Ye, what are you using such brutish methods to express?”
“I am expressing that I can pick it up, but I can also put it down.”
Ye Zhongming’s reply was really quick, but it caused Deacon Tong to become more and more solemn. He wasn’t as confident as before. He noticed that things were different from what he thought. This Cloud Peak boss seemed confident.
Deacon Tong didn’t know where that confidence came from. Was it because he knew the secrets of the Lord’s Case? Or did he know that the ownership of Bright Water World was not decided?
“I hope to get your points. You can give a price.”
Deacon Tong was annoyed by the calm Ye Zhongming. He decided to be frank.
Ye Zhongming leaned on the chair, “Deacon Tong, let me ask you something first.”
“What?”
“Does your arrogant behavior have to do with you acting like you know how to drink red wine in the past?”
Ye Zhongming turned the conversation as fast as you flipped a book and said, “I don’t know what gives you the confidence to ask me to name my price. Do you think that you can afford the price I say? When people thought that Bright Water World belonged to you, you might have the right to speak to me like that. But I really want to know what lets you have such an attitude. Deacon Tong, let me remind you, you are only a fifth of Five Ring Money. I represent an organization on the same level as Five Ring Money.”
Deacon Tong had never been lectured like this. He stood up and stared at Ye Zhongming, his body giving off a dangerous aura.
“Okay, stop faking it. If you could attack, would you still negotiate with me?” Ye Zhongming understood more about Bright Water World than Deacon Tong, and he had the advantage.
This might be unfair. Ye Zhongming seemed lucky to bump into that mysterious stall, but it seemed fair, too. If you judged that as luck, then wasn’t Deacon Tong even luckier? He got Bright Water World first!
So, in the wheel world, luck played a part. There were many lucky people. Not only was there Deacon Tong but there was also Ye Zhongming.
“You!”
There was nothing Deacon Tong could do to Ye Zhongming.
“We can’t fight here, but you will have to head out.” Deacon Water walked over and sat between them. For the first time, three noble leaders of the apocalypse sat together.
“To be honest… You aren’t my match.” Ye Zhongming’s reply negated Deacon Water’s threat.
Ye Zhongming didn’t lie. The only faction he feared was the God Hall’s chief. That person had high combat strength and also had a strong battle beast. He also had the mysterious God Hall behind him.
Ye Zhongming feared no one else. This was confidence that Blue Secret Realm gave him. Although the people there didn’t have as many abilities and equipment as those on Earth, they did have level seven or eight strength. Ye Zhongming killed many of such people.
In Bright Water World, he got the Proof of the Puppet and Gem Maze Formation. His strength had increased. More importantly, he increased his Scorching Flame Technique to the top level.
Also, would Five Ring Money have a chance outside under such a situation? Lu Yi’s merchant squad was nearby. If you talked about Chameleon, they were enough to deal with any battle squad.
Ye Zhongming wasn’t stubborn; he really wasn’t afraid.
Ye Zhongming stood up after saying that and looked at the two Deacons, “I don’t mind working together, but it isn’t the time. My value isn’t fully shown, so let’s discuss it in the future.”
The two deacons could see each other’s rage. At the same time, they were confused.
If it were someone else, they would think he was bragging. But Ye Zhongming was strong, and Cloud Peak was also a super faction. Since he showed such confidence, they had to believe him.
“This person… Is a mystery.”
Deacon Tong had a bad feeling. He pinched his forehead and felt a headache when he thought about how to deal with Ye Zhongming.
Deacon Water looked at the wine that Ye Zhongming drank out of and was deep in thought.
Ye Zhongming returned to his room and heard that Bright Water World’s dungeons would close for a day after the fourth stage. He knew that Five Ring Money did so to give people a chance to trade, and they also wanted to use Gory Red Arena to collect money.
He lay on the bed and looked at the clean ceiling. Many ideas to show his value appeared in his mind.
