Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 288: Small Factions working together
Tong Hu was brushing his teeth beside some sand. He had a problem with his teeth, but it was harder to find a dentist than a woman now, so he could only brush a few more times every day to reduce the pain.
“Damn, why does it still hurt after I evolve.” The short Tong Hu smashed his toothbrush in rage and then tossed it out.
His team and he used an incomplete apartment as their camp and tried to survive in Ying City.
As for the team’s name, he was too lazy to think, so he called it Tong Hu Team. If they grew successful, it would then become Tong Hu Battle Squad.
“Tong Hu!” A giant shout spread from behind him and shocked him.
A woman who was a head taller and more muscular than him held a rice basin and walked out.
“You only know how to brush your teeth. We have been out of rice for two days; go out to find some. So many people are following you and are hungry!”
“Look at how bad you look. After you fought the zombie horde, you were forced back and now can’t even get into the top 50 of the rankings. You can’t even find food now. Are you even useful?”
The woman, who was bigger than guys, placed her hands on her hip and scolded Tong Hu. Many people in the building looked out and gloated. Although such things would happen every day, seeing their boss get bullied made them happy.
He continued to smile.
This was his wife. During peacetime, he married into the family and was used to being shouted at. If his wife didn’t scold him daily, he would feel uncomfortable.
“Not easy. Wife, you also know that the zombies seemed to have gone mad, and many went towards the city center. The others are around the city, so it is too dangerous to head out.” Tong Hu smiled, “Also, can you be softer, softer? What if you draw those disgusting things over…”
“En?”
She stared, and that terrified Tong Hu.
“Boss, someone is here.”
Men panted as he ran over to report what happened.
“He didn’t pass by?” Tong Hu squinted his eyes. He was still afraid of his dangerous wife.
“No, he came here for us.”
“How many?”
“En, three.”
Tong Hu’s wife slapped the guy, “Only three, so why are you so nervous!”
That sentry smiled. He didn’t get mad and even felt honored.
“Scram, scram, scram!” Tong Hu kicked this sentry away and smiled towards his wife, “Little Li, let’s go take a look?”
“Go!” She kicked the basin and then walked outside. Tong Hu followed.
“Sha Sha?”
Tong Hu was stunned when he saw the person. Apart from benefiting from following the zombie horde from Ying City, the two didn’t communicate much.
“A girl?” Tong Hu’s wife looked at Sha Sha, who had a hot body, and then turned towards her husband. The danger in her eyes shot in all directions.
Tong Hu waved to express that this had nothing to do with him. He smiled towards Sha Sha, “Captain Sha Sha, congratulations on entering the top 20.”
Top twenty? Tong Hu’s wife’s eyes lit up. She looked at her like she was looking at many potions.
“All thanks to Boss Ye!” She greeted Tong Hu. She then made space for a young guy, “Let me introduce; this is Cloud Peak’s Boss Ye.”
What?”
Tong Hu stepped right before his wife and took out a blade. He looked like he was going to stab it right away.
The woman saw her husband’s expression and knew this person was here to take revenge. She clenched her fist and wanted to help. She even started to shout.
“Men, they are here to find trouble!”
Ye Zhongming frowned. Although he understood why they would think that way, this reaction was too much.
“You better make her shut up.”
He didn’t even move much, but he suddenly appeared before Tong Hu and pressed his hand onto his heart.
Tong Hu’s wife wanted to shout, but she stopped.
“That is more like it.”
Ye Zhongming’s finger didn’t move. He looked at the sweaty Tong Hu and said, “I heard that Sha Sha said that your character is still okay, which was why I am here. Don’t force me to kill all of you.”
Tong Hu nodded. He felt like he had no way to resist this young man. He was only two-star evolved, but this guy was at least three-star…
Ye Zhongming moved his finger away, which caused them to heave a sigh of relief. They then shouted for their men to retreat and not offend him./
Tong Hu smiled, “Boss Ye, what instructions do you have?”
“Not instructions, we… Will work together.”
……………………
Five days had passed since the Poppy Wheel appeared. Some time had passed since the humans spun it as they feared the three factions. But all signs showed that the humans didn’t give up. More and more humans appeared outside of the range of the three factions.
In an abandoned alcohol shop were many survivors. Unlike those gathered in that shopping mall, these people weren’t from the top 50 factions. The bigger groups had a few dozen, while the smaller groups were just a dozen.
But they had reached a considerable number and over a thousand of them.
“Burning Rage, Sha Sha Battle Squad. One was top 20, and one is top 20 now. Will they lead this operation?”
“I am not sure. But I heard that guy would lead. Do you see the guy standing alongside Brother Bao, Sha Sha, and Tong Hu?”
“Who?”
“He is the boss of that holiday village in the suburbs, Cloud Peak’s boss.”
“Oh, the faction that is ranked 40 who is quite strong. At least he is stronger than us.”
Those people discussed softly.
“Quieten down!” Brother Bao walked over. Although Burning Rage’s ranking fell, they were still an old faction, so people listened to him.
“I think everyone knows why you are here. Those who came agreed to join this operation. But we know how tough this is. Those top 50 factions have failed so far. We are weaker than them, so we must think of a way. At the same time, everyone has to listen to orders.”
Brother Bao looked at the people and said firmly.
“We will listen to you! Brother Bao!”
“What should we do?”
People replied.
Those small factions didn’t think about the wheel. When they saw the situation, all of them gave up.
There was no choice; they couldn’t even get a thousand meters close to the wheel.
Two days ago, someone found them to persuade them to join.
These survivors weren’t fools to be able to survive until now. They knew they had to have a good commander to get something good this time. That was why none of them tried to fight for control.
Brother Bao shook his head, “You don’t have to listen to me but Cloud Peak’s Boss Ye. You might not be familiar with his name, but you should know about the person who spun the wheel three times on the first day. That person is Boss Ye.”
Ye Zhongming walked over slowly.
