Apocalypse Gachapon C.848: We meet again

“Join us? You have decided?”

Ye Zhongming spent the few days sitting in the Exquisite Floating Ball and crafting. When he heard that Candleroom was looking for him and discovered that he had made his choice, he wasn’t surprised.

“Right, I have decided to join Cloud Peak Alliance and serve your tribe and you.”

Candleroom thought he would feel humiliated when he said those words, but in truth, he felt slightly uncomfortable.

This shocked him, but when he thought about it, he understood.

As the leader, he knew the Candleroom tribe’s exact situation. Although the tribe wouldn’t die in a few years, they would definitely weaken.

Candleroom thought that such a situation wouldn’t happen to his tribe but after winters passed, everything started to change.

The reality brought him back to his senses.

He knew that he had to find a way out for his tribe. If not, all that would happen to them would be destruction.

He didn’t expect an opportunity to come so quickly in the past. Things were too sudden, such that he couldn’t accept it.

But now that he did, he decided to join this guy’s team, where the guy would provide food and drinks, top equipment, and constantly create miracles.

He knew that the guy would agree, and he didn’t hide his background during these few days of traveling.

Candleroom was smart and knew that he didn’t hide this because he was purposefully revealing information to him.

The goal was to tell him that he came from another world.

Right, another world. This was something that Candleroom couldn’t imagine in the past.

But he accepted it quickly. These people’s bodies showed many features that were different from those of Posthumous people.

“You know my relationship with the Imperial City is bad, right? Do you still want to join? If you nod, it means you are going against your faith. Think carefully. We treat friends and our own two people differently, and we will be stricter with our people.”

Ye Zhongming placed the armor in his hands down and said slowly.

Candleroom’s eyes were filled with hesitation, but that disappeared quickly. He said firmly, “I don’t regret it. My tribe understands my choice because I gave them a bright path forward.”

Ye Zhongming looked deeply at this leader and nodded, “Okay, then welcome.”

…………………………………………………………………………………

Hong Xiang tossed a corpse to the side and looked deep into the tunnel.

He didn’t expect the resistance to be so stubborn.

They had set off from the Imperial City before winter ended. They used the Crystal Burning Charcoal that they had saved over so many years and mobilized the Soaring Hunting Birds that they wouldn’t mobilize so quickly. But even then, a tenth of them had died due to the bad weather.

These were all his elites, and some were the Imperial City’s elites.

This was to catch the Cloud Peak Alliance off guard and catch Ye Zhongming alive. They wanted to bring him back to the Imperial City for judgment and punish him above the Saint Pool.

As the Posthumous people found it more challenging to survive, the Imperial City’s rule was under threat! No one mentioned it, but everyone could sense it.

These kings didn’t have a good solution. They had many things to care about and couldn’t solve the problem. They could only allow the Posthumous people to weaken slowly.

The Imperial City ruled each tribe for many years. This was a bloodline tradition that

wouldn’t be easily shaken.

But tradition was easily shaken when one’s life couldn’t be protected.

There were many loyal people, but there were also many who weren’t stupid. Especially these tribe leaders. They were able to get to their positions due to their intelligence. When they faced the threat of their tribe being wiped out, they would find a way out.

The Imperial City’s rule was stable in the past because if tribes fought back and won, the outcome would be the same. Everyone would struggle to survive.

But Ye Zhongming’s appearance, the appearance of Cloud Peak Alliance, gave them a feasible path.

Even if Posthumous people were closed off, news still spread. The kings knew that it would cause an uproar once others found out, shaking the foundations of their rule.

This was something they couldn’t allow to happen.

No!

Because the interests of the Imperial City were the interests of the kings!

So, even if they felt good about Ye Zhongming, they had to protect their interests. They had to destroy the sprouts of destruction.

So King Hong Xiang was sent along with five thousand troops to destroy Ye Zhongming and his alliance.

Destroy… The hopes of the other tribes.

Even if they had to pay a high price!

“Ah Tao, Grey Mountain, Mountain Bank. Kneel before me, and I can spare your people and pardon them for their sins. I will only kill all of you. If not, all of you will die today.”

His voice spread through the narrow tunnel into the mountain so the people inside could hear clearly.

Cloud Peak Alliance members had faces dead as ash.

They weren’t afraid of fighting, and when they faced the elite Imperial City forces, they could be on a similar level.

After the undead people stopped them, they battled in the mountain; although the undead were all wiped out and lost 200 warriors, the Imperial City army suffered heavy losses. Half of their forces were lost.

They should have been happy about this, but things changed when King Hong Xiang attacked them.

With this level eight king's addition, the defending troops were forced back. No one could stop this expert.

In just a short moment, over 40 people died to this king. Among them included Mountain Bank’s son.

The situation was really dangerous, and they were on the brink of death.
