Doomsday Roulette

Chapter 538: Your refusal, then I’ll take hers.

Published: February 8, 2025

"My head hurts a bit, so there will only be one update today. I'll make it up tomorrow, sorry to all the brothers."

Is the heavenly phenomenon war department and commander Guangyao really that great?

Clearly not; in fact, they are quite smart. Whether in peaceful times or during the apocalypse, they exist as elites in human society.

Whether they had prior knowledge of the impending apocalypse or not cannot be denied; they have done well. The heavenly phenomenon war department's strength is limited compared to Cloud Summit Villa.

Perhaps they didn't have good methods to deal with the sea giant just now, but don't forget they only used one-third of their power. What if they used everything? Give them some time, and they could definitely kill the sea giant.

The magic crystal weapons of Cloud Summit Villa are indeed powerful, but what if the people of Cloud Summit fought against the heavenly phenomenon war department? Cloud Summit might win, but the losses would also be tremendous.

So although Ye Zhongming felt this was an opportunity for him to get rich, he didn't treat them as fools.

However, the divide remained serious.

"Mr. Ye, do you think this is appropriate?" Guangyao's eyes twitched, and his mood was extremely poor.

The situation they faced was still very serious; the retreat of the sea beast tide was only temporary and could come back at any time. What would they do then?

Like Ye Zhongming, Guangyao could sense several powerful auras. If these auras represented mutated life forms attacking together, could they hold the Inner City?

If the Inner City only had the heavenly phenomenon war department, Guangyao's answer was affirmative; he could not defend it.

However, the combat power displayed by Ye Zhongming and Cloud Summit Villa in killing the sea giant ignited a spark of hope in him because this was a force that could share half of his pressure.

With Ye Zhongming's appearance, the survival probability of the heavenly phenomenon war department and Guangyao increased by at least half.

This was the reason he didn't fight with Ye Zhongming over the sea giant's loot earlier; Guangyao also suppressed the other forces in Cloud Port, urging them to behave and not provoke the Ying City Coalition.

Now coming here was also Guangyao's way to seek further cooperation, enhancing their strength in a short time to withstand the impending sea beast tide.

Naturally, while Ye Zhongming thought Guangyao seemed quite anxious, Guangyao was also there to see if Ye Zhongming was indeed anxious; this mysterious emerging force had something that even Guangyao envied.

Those weapons embedded with magic crystals.

Guangyao could guarantee with his gender that this was a revolutionary weapon!

He was tempted, feeling this was a perfect opportunity to obtain such a weapon because facing the sea beast tide, the pressure of death was something not only he could feel. He believed Ye Zhongming must also be feeling it. In such circumstances, negotiations would definitely be much easier than usual.

But who would have thought, before he could say anything, that this somewhat overly young man from Cloud Summit Villa would immediately ask for the Rong Clan Holy Armor?

Suppressing his anger, Guangyao asked Ye Zhongming with a very unpleasant attitude.

Ye Zhongming didn't mind, shrugging his shoulders and saying, "It's pretty good."

Before Guangyao, whose face turned white from anger, could speak, Ye Zhongming continued, "You and I both understand that the sea beast tide outside could come at any moment; our hopes of holding it off are slim, even if we unite."

Guangyao's expression calmed, quietly listening.

"The only possible chance to overcome the crisis is the same as before."

"What do you mean?" Guangyao asked, looking at Ye Zhongming, who seemed completely unhurried.

"Kill their leaders."

After saying this, Ye Zhongming waited for a moment for Guangyao to digest his meaning, with a hint of hidden mockery in his gaze.

"As long as we kill their high-level mutated life forms, the sea beast tide will retreat."
