Chapter 720: Tense
Chapter 720: Tense
Three Horned Deer was a rare mutated animal. It was rare, not in amount, but because it was a herbivore.
The apocalypse was where even chickens and ducks ate humans. Finding a mutated plant or animal that didnt eat survivors was too rare.
What survivors craved was that the deers lived in groups. They didnt attack. With the apocalypse, mutated plants were everywhere, which was why such mutated lifeforms didnt lack food. This resulted in their evolution levels being very high.
Apart from providing demon crystals, their horns, skin, and bones were great materials. Their meat was famous for being tender and also provided much energy.
This lifeform was prepared for survivors.
In the ten years of his last life, the deer was probably the only lifeform hunted to extinction.
A year into the apocalypse, humans noticed these were moving demon crystal sources and started to hunt them.
Zhao Xingmei and Liang Chuyin led a Ying City team and found hundreds of them around ten kilometers away from the camp. Their average level was level four; a dozen had reached level five.
If one counted the demon crystals and materials, they were a sizeable fortune for any faction.,
The two beauties naturally wouldnt let them go and followed them closely.
But there were only 200 warriors from Ying City. Even if they didnt have strong attacks, it was tough to hunt them. They dashed and evolved at the same level couldnt keep up. If they attacked, they could, at most, kill a few dozen. Thus, Zhao Xingmei called the nearby teams.
While they waited, a foreign team appeared from the side and started to attack the deers. They shot guns throughout. With the sneak attack, dozens of deer were killed.
The others started to flee towards the Ying City squad.
The prey they noticed first was being stolen. They naturally wouldnt give up on this chance. Zhao Xingmei and Liang Chuyin led Ying City members and started to hunt these mutated animals.
They had spent half a month with Ye Zhongming. Ying City members gained many benefits. Each had at least a silver piece of equipment, and more than half had two. They also ate food from the Water and Fire Pot, and their bodies became stronger. Along with their skills and tactics improving after the few battles and the fact that they werent afraid of dying, another group of deers died.
Although they were herbivores, it didnt mean they wouldnt kill when anxious. These deers were being stopped, so they started to fight back against those from Ying City.
Those from Ying City werent the elites from Cloud Peak. Even if Ye Zhongming took care of them, they werent strong enough to kill these deers quickly, and the situation became anxious.
After picking up their spoils, the team that shot the deers moved to the side. They werent going to snatch, but they wouldnt help. They were just looking on the side.
Things were sudden, and Ying City was forced to fight. They might have collapsed if not for their good equipment and Liang Chuyin being a six-star evolved.
Fortunately, they managed to hold on. Ying Citys other 200-person squad rushed over and killed these few dozen deers.
If things ended like this, both sides would return safely with their gains.
But when clearing the battlefield, the other squad got close and even looked like they wanted to attack. They started to fight with the injured Ying City squad for items.
How could they take that?
Both sides clashed.
Fortunately, they were still rational. Both sides had similar numbers, and they could tell the other side wasnt weak. If they went all out, both teams might collapse.
So, after a few minutes of fighting, they stopped, and each side called out for help.
In such a short while, both sides had a few dozen corpses.
This grievance was huge.
Both sides were still tense when Ye Zhongming got here. If not for the 30 corpses on the ground reminding them to be calm, they would have already fought.
Ye Zhongming looked at the human corpses piled together with the mutated animal corpses and frowned. He touched his chin and said, Carry our members back and burn them.
A few dozen soldiers started to move the bodies of their allies.
The people on the other side saw and made the same choice.
Using the chance, Ye Zhongming looked at the other side. As Ah Yang said, they wore the same uniform and had the same equipment. They didnt panic. Such a style was unique to the resistance zone.
But, after a year of chaos, their aura was cruel and bloodthirsty. This was no different from other survivor squads.
There was the sound of engines. Ye Zhongming raised his head and saw 20 cars driving over. A thousand people jumped from above, and they were all holding guns. They surrounded Ye Zhongming and his thousand men in a semi-circle and aimed their weapons at them.
Ye Zhongming, who was thinking about how to solve the issue, frowned.
He came here for the meeting. He wanted to know things he couldnt discover in his last life. If the negotiations were good, he might even get things that Cloud Peak lackedfor example, their guns. In the next three years, these were better than cold weapons to deal with groups of mutated lifeforms and when defending.
So even when he saw his sides corpses, he controlled himself and didnt want to clash with them. He had many enemies, and there was no point in offending these people who looked like one of the biggest factions in the apocalypse. If not, he wouldnt have cared who these people were. In the past, he killed anyone ahead of him, be it Glory Army of Soul Merchant. These people were slightly stronger than those.
But what was the meaning of them pointing their guns? They wanted to fight? Nature Staff appeared in Ye Zhongmings hands.
Was he afraid of them with Water Bottle Protection?
Seeing the weapon suddenly appear, the warriors behind him received a clear signala strong killing aura spread in the sky.
