Chapter 671: Guide
Ye Zhongming moved through the tunnel, and in a short while, he bumped into a bunch of red-eyed humans.
These were humans who went crazy from hunting. When the situation got out of control, they destroyed the only foundation in the underground city that could support their survival.
If they didnt break out successfully this time, the survivors evolution level would stagnate, and they would slowly die here.
These people didnt think it was related to this guy who brushed past them.
Of course, some wanted to rob Ye Zhongming, but in the end, they would not only lose their lives, but their savings would end up in the Gate of Sacrifice.
Ye Zhongming wasnt quick. Although he knew the path, the tunnels in the underground city were too similar. He was able to bump into survivors and force them to answer him; if not, he would have lost his way.
Half a day had passed when he arrived at Vine Forest Squads base.
This place differed from the chaos of the other parts of the city. Although their base wasnt huge, it was really quiet.
When Ye Zhongming got close, an arrow flew towards him.
Ye Zhongming tilted his head and dodged without even moving his body. A few seconds later, a few people walked out warily.
If you want to take advantage, then scram. This is Vine Forest Squads territory!
Someone warned Ye Zhongming by pointing a bow and arrow at him.
I am looking for Gaye! Gan Lan introduced me.
Ye Zhongming raised his hands and said he had no bad intentions.
The few of them looked at each other. Gan Lans name reduced their hate, but they still pointed their weapons at Ye Zhongming.
Wait.
Someone spoke before running back. A moment later, he led a few more people out. One of them was 40 years old. His face had a terrifying scar. He sized up Ye Zhongming and said, I have never seen you.
His voice was weird. Through the bit of light, Ye ZHongming saw that the scar stretched to his neck. His vocal cords were probably damaged.
It was hard to imagine how such a person lived through his injuries. Probably only evolved could survive from that.
But Ye Zhongming was curious about the fact that even Sha Shas birthmark could be reduced through evolution. So why was that scar still so obvious?
What did Gan Lan say?
Gaye had a weird name and looked different from ordinary Chinese. He should be a mixed-blood.
I need a guide.
Gaye looked at Ye Zhongming coldly. He scoffed before leaving.
I can pay you a high price and keep you safe.
I wont go to that place, no matter what you give me.
Not even high-grade purification potions?
Guye turned around immediately and opened his eyes wide.
What did you say?
Ye Zhongming waved, I have high-grade purification potions.
Those people behind ruffled, and many of them walked outwards.
Ye Zhongming didnt care. He searched his pocket and pulled out a white potion.
This was one of the two things that Ye Zhongming told Yang Yixi to purchase.
Gayes breathing got heavier.
I have heard about your son. This advanced purification potion is for him. With this, the mutated nematodes in his body can be removed. Ye Zhongming smiled confidently.
A weird mutated bug entered the body of Gayes son, and they werent able to chase it out, which resulted in him being in a coma. His body got thinner every day, and he could only rely on nutrient liquid and basic purification potions to maintain his life. But this wasnt a long-term plan. This method could only slow the bug but couldnt solve the problem.
When the bugs amassed enough energy and evolved to the next level, that would be when his son died.
Moreover, they were expensive, be it basic nutrient liquids or basic purification potions. Gaye and his Vine Forest Squad were bankrupt and had to sell equipment to stay alive. Gan Lan met Gaye then. She didnt take the chance to rip him off but gave him a fair price, which is why they formed a friendship. When Gaye had other equipment to sell, he would find Gan Lan.
Gaye was excited when he saw the advanced purification potion but hesitated when he considered Ye Zhongmings request.
Ye Zhongming wasnt anxious, and he calmly took out three potions.
If you agree, then these will be for your son. Even if you fail to return, four-star evolved strength will ensure that he has a good life.
There were two stars, three-star, and four-star potions in his hands.
Gayes breathing was chaotic.
He was only a four-star evolved.
He was hesitating, but now he was tempted.
Right, if he agreed, these potions would be his. His one-star-evolved son would not only heal, but he would also become a four-star evolved. Even if he died, his son would have things to live.
Gaye nodded and agreed.
Ye Zhongming smiled and shoved these things into his hands, I will wait for you, but only two hours.
That is enough.
Gaye looked deeply at Ye Zhongming and entered the camp with the potions.
A moment later, there were cheers from inside, which then disappeared.
An hour later, Gaye changed his clothes and appeared before Ye Zhongming.
Okay, lets go.
Ye Zhongming saw a ten-year-old kid standing nearby. That should be Gayes son. He watched as his father disappeared and didnt know if he would return.
This was the apocalypse; you knew there was a low chance of surviving, but you could only move forward.
The two of them passed a tunnel that wasnt abandoned and reached a metal gate.
Although I dont know why you are going there, I want to remind you that once you enter, your fate is up to the heavens.
Gaye held the handle and looked toward Ye Zhongming with a solemn expression. Although he had survived this place, an ugly scar that couldnt be wiped away by evolving had appeared on his face.
I dont believe in fate. Ye Zhongming nodded.
Okay, lets go. If everything goes smoothly, you can see the Death King Tree in three hours.
He pulled the rusty gate open and headed in.
