Apocalypse Gachapon - Chapter 966: Second Life
One Step Wheel stood tall in the dark Blue Secret Realm. The people around were very nervous.
There are eight choices, four rewards, and four punishments. The rewards were naturally good, but no one paid attention to them. They were all staring at the punishments.
Hong Xiang and Ling Kun also knew the punishments, as they had to prepare for accidents that might occur. They looked at Ye Zhongming with a complicated expression.
Even if Ye Zhongming didn’t say anything, they knew the reason why this young man wanted to spin this dangerous thing. It was so that they could face the level nine Saint Light Hall expert.
Although they didn’t know why Ye Zhongming was sure Saint Light Hall would send everything they had, they knew this partner wouldn’t lie to them. He took such a huge risk to spin the wheel because he wanted to help the Posthumous people.
But, the punishments scared them.
After the trip to Earth, they understood the wheel and knew the real use of demon crystals. Many Posthumous people even spun the wheels themselves.
But as they were of different species, they didn’t need potions as much as humans. Potions could increase their strength, but there was a limit. This meant that they didn’t care as much about the wheels.
Ye Zhongming could give them everything they needed, and they suited them better than those from the wheel.
But this was the first time they had seen such a terrifying wheel, so they had to pay close attention to it.
Ye Zhongming threw level seven crystals in and started his first spin.
He could only eliminate two punishments. One was naturally the reward explosion. That reward was too terrifying; you would die if you got it. The second choice was the mental energy curse.
Apart from the elimination technique, Ye Zhongming was able to get rich because of the Glory Smith job. His mental energy supported that job.
Not only did he have a large amount of mental energy, it recovered quickly, too.
Cloud Peak was fully dressed in silver. Xia Bai’s squad was full green. Each of the core members had at least one piece of blue equipment.
How did all this come about? It relied on his mental energy. If not, even if Ye Zhongming’s Smith level was high and he could craft one a day, he would only be able to have one full silver squad.
Not to mention the huge amount of grey and white equipment that he made for the Posthumous people.
So, comparing the mental energy curse and the two extremes, he chose the former.
The remaining two punishments were to challenge the level eight lifeform and also twin extreme invasion.
The wheel spun on the wheel, and it didn’t slow down. Ye Zhongming thought about it and told the others to retreat further. He silently activated his second life.
When he killed Zhang Dalong, he obtained a recipe- Alli Essence.
Ye Zhongming had already made and consumed the essence. The reason he was so strong had to do with the second life the potion had provided.
This second life had two states. The main body would obtain a 20-30% buff when it wasn’t activated. The exact amount would depend on the essence vein. When activated, the main body would have one more life, which would block a lethal attack.
Of course, the cooldown was really long, at 500 days.
As he wasn’t sure what he would meet, he activated the second life to be safe.
Anyway, if he didn’t use it now, he would use it in the future.
The moment he activated the second life, the needle stopped and pointed at the two extreme invasion!
Damn!
He retreated as he didn’t know what was going to happen. But moving around would definitely be the right idea.
But his thoughts were too simple.
Extreme cold covered him, which made him feel like his soul was frozen.
After evolving to five-star, people didn’t really care about the temperature. Even in winter, evolved could run outside naked.
But now, Ye Zhongming was actually freezing. The leather armor was useless, and his mind was blank from the cold.
He used all his strength to go up against the bone-chilling cold.
But it was still useless.
Ye Zhongming recalled that people discussed how much cold and hot temperatures nine-star evolved could resist in his last life. They could confirm that someone had seen the nine-star evolved tank a thousand-degree attack.
Probably only a nine-star evolved could block the two extreme invasion.
Ye Zhongming felt like a year had passed before the cold disappeared. But before he could think, a high temperature struck him. It was as if he was thrown into magma; he was being melted.
The last bit of consciousness started to break apart, and in the next second, he knew nothing.
To the others, Ye Zhongming started to lean back after the wheel stopped. A white mist spurted from the wheel, which froze him. Then, a white flame hit the ice statue, which then caused the statue to explode.
Xia Bai screamed before charging forward.
The others were shocked. Did Ye Zhongming die just like that?
The impression he gave others was that he couldn’t die. In the Secret Realm, even Flame Dove couldn’t kill him. Outside Cloud Peak, the mutated lifeforms failed to kill him. In the wilderness, the Chain Prisoner didn’t kill him. Now, two gas balls killed him?
Everyone charged with Xia Bai.
But they took two steps before the pieces of Ye Zhongming combined. Ye Zhongming reappeared once again.
“Damn, that was scary!”
Ye Zhongming’s words brought the others back to their senses. They asked, and after he gave a simple explanation, they relaxed. Xia Bai and Park Xiuying’s bodies were still shivering.
What a waste of the second life. Ye Zhongming calmed them down and knew that it was because of his bad luck. He hit the punishment after the first spin. But he knew that the toughest moments were gone. There were seven choices with three punishments. He could eliminate two of them, so there was one left. There was only a 20% chance of hitting it. He didn’t believe he could be so unlucky to hit two punishments in a row.
Thus, he tossed another level seven crystal and used the Elimination technique.
But he cursed right away.
