Chapter 471: Final choice
Ye Zhongming gave up on fighting Chou Zisong. He used the fastest speed to get to that hole. He glanced and saw that it was pitch black. He frowned before retreating.
Many people were charging.
They didn’t want to get trapped here. If they found a way to escape, then naturally, they should leave. The chances of surviving here weren’t high.
To fight for this area would be a way out; the few factions had the most intense battle since the start. Broken limbs and blood covered the area in front of the hole.
Ye Zhongming retreated, but he continued to frown.
HE tried so hard to set all this up to kill most of the factions and obtain the final reward.
It wasn’t as if he didn’t think that people could find ways to escape. After all, the protector beasts of the wheel might have some magical items. Ye Zhongming couldn’t predict it all.
People could use this equipment to flee.
But Ye Zhongming didn’t think that the people were so lucky.
But the truth gave him a blow. Professor He had a way to leave.
But Ye Zhongming could accept that. He was happy to see if his leaving opened an escape tunnel.
“They can’t flee. That earthworm had undergone some changes and had weak space ability, which is why it could leave. The others… Can’t.”
Most of the other fights stopped, and everyone surged towards the hole. Cloud Peak members also surrounded Ye Zhongming.
The brain child walked over too and told Ye Zhongming what he felt with its young voice.
Ye Zhongming relaxed; if not, he wanted to order them to attack.
Someone charged into the hole and jumped down. Then, many people entered like moths to a flame.
Of course, some people were calm. Glory Army and Sosul Merchant members didn’t jump in. After all, they didn’t know how Professor He got out, so entering the hole was risky.
As expected, moments later, there were screams from inside.
Those who charged in wanted to run out like something was chasing them. A moment later, the others saw that the hole was healing quickly. Those people who didn’t escape were buried alive.
They looked at the hole that was back to normal. The entire platform was silent like the night.
Di di!
This dripping sound broke the silence from hope being destroyed. Everyone looked and saw that a countdown appeared on the leaderboard.
There were only 40 minutes left!
Cloud Peak was still on top. Glory Army was close behind, while Soul Merchant had fallen slightly further behind.
The space dimmed a little. The barrier-covered Cloud Peak disappeared. The space quickly absorbed the barrier’s energy when the hole was sealed. Cloud Peak lost its protection when it finally absorbed all the energy in the gem.
Cheng Tianji and Chou Zisong looked at each other and were tempted.
Unicorn Freedom Army was already wiped out. God Hall had collapsed after Professor He fled. As they were closest to the hole and most people entered, many were buried alive. They had lost the chance to fight and could only wait for death.
It was a three-way fight. Soul Merchant wasn’t in a good state either and would die if this continued.
“Deputy Chou, let’s kill Cloud Peak first?” Then we will decide who lives.”
Cheng Tianji suggested to Chou Zisong. To Glory Army, they had to do one thing: drag Cloud Peak down. After which, they could choose to attack or defend.
Aside from Cloud Peak, Soul Merchant was the best partner.
But that didn’t mean Soul Merchant felt the same way. They wanted to catch up but were much weaker after losing Abnormal Blood Relatives and Bei Zi. They couldn’t challenge Cloud Peak or Glory Army.
In such a situation, they had the toughest choice.
Cloud Peak was the most relaxed. They were top and had the choice.
Chou Zisong lowered his head. Others couldn’t see his expression. But a moment later, this beautiful deputy smiled.
“Soul Merchant will back out; let us die here today.” He retreated to a corner with his men.
Cheng Tianji and Ye Zhongming were stunned, but they understood.
Chou Zisong wanted Cloud Peak and Glory Army to fight. If they risked it all, they would have a chance.
“Deputy Chou, your choice is wise.” Cheng Tianji was still in Fire Elf Form. It seemed like his bloodline transformation lasted a long time.
“Seems.”
This sudden change caused Chou Zisong to raise his head.
“Seems smart, but it is stupid!”
Cheng Tianji turned towards Ye Zhongming.
“Boss Ye, since someone wants to take advantage of us, let’s solve this problem. Then we can fight to the death.”
Ye Zhongming smiled, “We are top of the charts, so why should I risk my life?”
“If you disagree, then I won’t move. When the time is about to be up, we can try our luck.”
Glory Army and Cloud Peak had similar points. If Cheng Tianji did what he did and started fighting near the end, it wasn’t easy to say who would be first.
Ye Zhongming hesitated and chose to work together.
He didn’t want to gamble with Cloud Peak’s fate. If they dragged the battle to the end, there would be many uncertainties.
“Okay, I take one, you take one. We can split the rest.”
“Deal!”
Ye Zhongming and Cheng Tianji looked at each other’s eyes to confirm their sincerity. They then waved. Cloud Peak and Glory Army moved towards Soul Merchant.
