“Thank you to the little bird flying alone for the rewards, thank you to Sister Ten for the 1888 (the nickname I gave her, haha), thank you to hhbenqiu and Chai Na Football for the 588, and thanks to other book friends as well. Thank you all, I had to attend social events today, so I'm late. I'm sorry, but there will be another chapter later, although it will be very late.”
For Mingdong, every minute and second was a torment. He had no idea how Boss Ye would deal with him, and it was precisely this uncertainty that left him in extreme anxiety.
The corpse on the ground, with its crushed throat, constantly reminded Mingdong that this might be the fate he was about to face.
However, when Ye Zhongming and the others came down, even though Mingdong was already permeated with fear, he was still momentarily stunned by the four-star evolution elixirs held by several members of the Copper Kettle Team.
He had never seen so many elixirs displayed together; there were no one-star, no two-star, and not even three-star ones—everything was four-star.
More than a hundred of them!
“Everyone come over, each person gets one, courtesy of Boss Ye.”
Copper Kettle gestured to his subordinates. The previously expressionless group immediately brightened up and came over to collect the four-star evolution elixirs, eagerly starting the injections.
Just a few hours prior, most of them were merely two-star evolvers, and a few were even one-star evolvers. Yet just a few hours later, they had all become four-star evolvers.
The members of the Mingdong Battle Team watched in utter disbelief… they could hardly describe their feelings. If they were given another chance to choose, they would surely cling tightly to Copper Kettle’s leg and work hard like beasts.
Once these individuals finished injecting the elixirs, Ye Zhongming put away the remaining ones and said to Mingdong, “Bring all your warriors with you. As long as you obey, I won’t kill you, but whether or not you survive in the end depends on yourself.”
In a different environment, no one would want to hear such words, but when Mingdong heard them, he felt the excitement of a student who had made progress and received praise from his teacher. He quickly organized his team to follow Ye Zhongming.

Currently, the highest evolutionary level among the survivors of Ying City was five stars. Therefore, the five-star roulette, which had previously gone unnoticed, had now become extremely sought after. Compared to a large number of lower-level roulettes, the higher-level roulettes were fewer in number, meaning that the organizations capable of occupying high-level roulettes were all powerful factions.
For example, the Keer Knight Brigade.
Now, the Keer Knight Brigade was entirely different from what it was six months ago, even the leader had changed. But they hadn’t weakened; in fact, they had grown stronger and had now entered the top five of Ying City.
This was greatly related to their decision to side with the Radiant World Army during the precise exchange roulette battle.
Although it seemed like they had failed just like the Radiant World Army at that time, who would have thought that the victor would suddenly disappear? Even though there were rumors that the victor dealt a heavy blow to the Radiant World Army upon leaving, they ultimately vanished, while the losers rose again and became stronger, and the victor remained silent.
Inside the Keer Knight Brigade's base, the lights were bright. They occupied a sports arena in the city, and after closing the roof, it became a relatively enclosed space. Even with torches lit, they had no fear of attracting zombies or mutated creatures.
With light, certain inherent human natures were ignited. Under the immense pressure of the apocalypse, wild revelry became a natural occurrence.
The seats in the sports arena had long been removed, with tents haphazardly set up. For the now-thousand-member Keer Knight Brigade, this was their resting place. Under the bright firelight, laughter and noisy voices erupted from many tents, along with more lascivious sounds.
