Chapter 30: Cooperation
The knocking sound from behind filled Mo Ye with relief that she could escape.
Mo Ye was that female officer. She was following Ye Zhongming and climbing the ceiling towards the ventilation pipe outwards. The huge hole that she had climbed out of was now covered by so wooden boards.
.
She looked at the guy leading the way with a complicated expression and Mo Ye felt terror.
The world had changed. Although she didn’t want to admit it but that was the truth.
Humans had changed. She didn’t want to admit it but she had suffered from betrayal previously.
Mo Ye was born in an army family and after growing up, apart from learning she was training. She had just graduated from police school before she faced the apocalypse. She didn’t know what to do.
She wanted to save people and she tried but the outco was not good. If not for the guy climbing in front of her saving him, she would have already died.
She couldn’t head back to the station as human-eating monsters had occupied it. Ho? Her parents were in a secret departnt so she didn’t even know where they were. She was the only person at ho so why go back? Then now what?
Mo Ye was totally confused and she didn’t know where to go.
Lost, terror, pressure, fear, numbness. This was a negative ntal state that many people would suffer from when the apocalypse started. Many people wouldn’t be able to take it and they would kill themselves. They turned into human eating monsters or beca the food for the monsters.
These emotions couldn’t last long as very quickly humans would face the problem of survival. Food and water would very quickly beco a problem. But this was not everything. Next, there was the zombie flood, beast flood, monsters, mutants… Even humans. There were dangers everywhere.
All of this would turn into a battle for survival.
Mo Ye already had such emotions just that she hadn’t gone through all that yet.
From the pipe, they arrived at a small toilet on the first floor. Mo Ye saw that huge dog standing there and wagging its tail at the guy.
She slapped the dust off her body. She was not used to the dark environnt. Even if she was a police, she was still a girl who was afraid of the dark. This unease made her instinctively wrap her hands around herself.
“Why save ?”
The guy found a corner to sit down. That dog lay beside him and used his legs as its pillow.
Mo Ye didn’t understand and didn’t want to understand why this weird and even vicious dog would be so close to this guy.
Ye Zhongming patted its head and felt its body heat, “Work together.”
Mo Ye was stunned. This answer was unexpected.
Ye Zhongming knew that she would be surprised but he was saying the truth.
Ye Zhongming broke free from the second floor and wanted to activate the key but what surprised him was that the notification told him to be prepared for the dangers when the Secret Realm opened.
Ye Zhongming didn’t choose to open it right away but to just store it for the ti being.
He wasn’t confident in facing the dangers that might appear in the Secret Realm as it was too secretive even in the past. Moreover, Ye Zhongming was just a one star evolved, even if he had six star evolved strength in his last life, he had no confidence. After all, he knew nothing about the Secret Realm so who knew what was inside? What if there was a level seven or eight evolved zombie or a bunch of mutants, then Ye Zhongming would just die before he could do anything.
Thus, there was a problem in front of him. To open the Secret Realm and get the good things within, he had to raise his strength quickly.
As for what level, Ye Zhongming didn’t have a clear understanding. But since the key was on him, maybe studying it would give him a clear answer.
To raise his strength, the best way would be to get the strengthening potions or equipnt from the gachapon.
He was already one star evolved. Apart from function cards, level one gachapons weren’t of much use to him. To increase his strength, he had to spin level two wheels.
That ant that he needed white level two crystals and those only ca from level two mutated beings. There were three in front of him which ant three level two crystals. Ye Zhongming was thinking about getting them.
But after all, he was only one star evolved. Even if he had two decent secondary jobs, he could win against one, survive against two. If he faced three, he could only escape.
So he needed help. Soone normal that could fight against him like this female cop was a decent choice.
Apart from that, he planned to do sothing which was to get rich. But this idea needed help and planning.
Under such a situation, naturally, Ye Zhongming saved her.
After all, he revived and he was doing things based on apocalypse standards. Apart from people he trusted, everything was based on interests.
Since he needed her help, both of them would be working together. She would help him and he would give her paynt.
“Help
do two things and I will give you strength.”
This was Ye Zhongming’s promise.
Mo Ye touched her slightly uncomfortable neck and asked, “What do you need
to do? What is strength?”
“First thing is those three lizards. I need your help to clear them out. The second thing… Let’s talk after the first.”
Ye Zhongming was planning the future while explaining to her, “As for strength, keke, how do you think my strength is?”
She was stunned and recalled her battle with this guy. She recalled his extre resistance and strength and understood what he ant.
“You an, this strength… Can be given?”
This woman was smart and grasped the key of Ye Zhongming’s words.
He nodded, “If you help
kill those three lizards, I will give you a bottle of dicine that can give you five to six tis the strength of normal people.”
“There is such a thing?” Mo Ye was so shocked that she forgot about the unease that the darkness brought her.
Ye Zhongming nodded, “This world has changed and there is decomposition all around. Our only goal is to live. Of course, maybe as compensation, there is a lot of magical areas that could let humans gain strength and power that had only been seen in movies.”
“Does that include this strength?”
“Yes, it includes.” Ye Zhongming nodded, “To be honest with you, if you can live in the apocalypse, then you will slowly know how to get this strength. Now you still don’t know and need
to give it to you. Officer Mo, do you agree?”
