Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 190: Vine Whip and Ginseng Melon

Red Hair didn’t have emotions in the past as she was a puppet and would only listen to orders.

But since she woke up from the dirt, she was in a stunned state. She still knew how to fight and how to absorb energy as that was her instinct.

But even she didn’t notice that she had gained something that she had lost- emotions.

Seeing that something that was in her mouth was about to get stolen, she was filled with rage.

Although she didn’t have as much intellect as when she was a human, but she knew that the white fellow would be of great use to her.

Red Hair bent over to the side. The moment the human-shaped figure touched the white octopus, her body was knocked aside. After spinning a few rounds, she knelt there and looked at Red Hair who stumbled a few steps before standing still.

A small cat jumped onto that person’s shoulder and bared its sharp fangs at Red Hair.

It was that Talking Lady that had clashed with Ye Zhongming!

Things were just like that. When you were very sure about something and felt like it would proceed as planned, things might change. Things wouldn’t be exactly as you thought and even if it was, it was just a coincidence.

For example, when Ye Zhongming was in the new district base, he guessed that there was a Brain Bug. Thus he created his own plan and completed it in the end, getting him what he wanted.

But the truth was that there wasn’t only one brain bug but two. The reason why he only saw one was that the other had brought another level three mutated lifeform and left.

If not, the outcome would not be the same.

The Brain Bug that left did so because it sniffed the special lifeforce of the Talking Lady and thus went hunting it.

But now it seemed like this Brain Bug failed. Not only did it fail, the Talking Lady and her pet were chasing it. After so many days, maybe it was tracking Ye Zhongming who had eaten the other Brain Bug which was why it came here.

The Talking Lady evolved again and was now level three. Her cat was also at the same level but after the Talking Lady badly injured the guy that the Brain Bug controlled, she wasn’t in a good state.

She had dozens of wounds on her and there were a few caved-in portions on the rib. Who knew if it was caused by the Brain Bug or by the level three mutated vine?

Moreover, the Talking Lady looked really exhausted and so did the pet on her shoulder.

There were a few bald patches on the black cat and one could see black burns on its skin. Although it had evolved to level three, but it squatted on its master’s shoulder. When it panted, one could hear other sounds mixed into it, its body was probably badly injured.

Seemed like although the two of them won the Brain Bug but they had paid a heavy price.

Red Hair wasn’t in a good state too. Her wound had just healed and the energy the soul pearl absorbed from the three monsters was just enough for her to regain some vitality.

Both sides weren’t in a good situation but they weren’t willing to give up on the Brain Bug that was really attractive for both of them. After a short standoff, they started to fight once again.

The battle between mutated lifeforms wasn’t as ordered as those between evolved. It was more direct and bloody.

After a short dozen seconds, when both sides split up once more, neither could straighten their backs. They could only hold the ground with one hand and look at the enemy with a vicious gaze.

Red Hair’s body had several more wounds. Some were scratches, some were bites and some were bloody holes. Many parts of her flesh were ripped out to reveal the red and white structure beneath. The most serious was her left chest. There were dozens of black hair stuck to her heart that were totally pierced into her organ. If she was evolved, this alone would be enough to kill her.

Talking Lady was naturally not much better. Red Hair’s hands were the most powerful weapon. As long as she touched you, there would be a hole or a part of your body that was caved in. Talking Lady’s perfect body was badly injured and it twisted like it had been hit by a truck.

The mutated cat was in a bad state too. It dragged its back leg that was nearly ripped out by Red Hair. Half of its face caved in and that was because it was head-butted by the Red Hair.

Both sides looked at one another and tried to gauge their chances of winning.

A moment later, they both looked at the Brain Bug again.

Red Hair and the Talking Lady moved at the same time, both of them attacked with their strongest moves! One of them actually shot out a grey vine from their fingernails!

This wasn’t the first time the Talking Lady used Spirit Stab, she had used it once to prevent Red Hair from swallowing the Brain Bug.

But this was the first time Red Hair was using this skill that even Ye Zhongming didn’t know she had.

It was a skill she learned after she absorbed the mutated vine-- Vine Whip!

Red Hair took two steps back and confusion flashed in her eyes. She had a soul pearl in her mind so the mental energy wave that hit her brain wasn’t that effective.

But her vine whip was really sharp and instantly split the Talking Lady’s flesh, sending her flying backward.

This skill needed mental energy. After using that skill, the vines shrunk back into her body. She pounced at the brain bug. That long-haired woman couldn’t stop her anymore.

Red Hair grabbed the brain bug and joy appeared on her greyish face. But in the next moment, her expression changed.

That cat!

That cat had a broken leg which she had ignored.

When Red Hair nearly grabbed the Brain Bug, the black cat appeared beside the bug and hooked the bug with its claw. Neither gave in and just snatched the bug. This snatch actually ripped the bug into two!

Red Hair was stunned and so was the black cat. After this, they did a similar action.

Eat!

They shoved the brain bug into their mouths and started to chew before swallowing it.

Red Hair had some advantages. She was fierce and wanted to kill the two of them. But when it took a step forwards, a huge energy surged through her limbs.

Her body became numb and slow.

On the other side, after the black cat ate the brain bug, it gave a mocking smile. But two seconds later, it had the same exact signs as Red Hair. Moreover, due to the energy transfer with the Talking Lady, she was also in such a state.

Both sides turned around and fled in opposite directions but their actions looked like they were wooden dolls. They were stiff and amusing.

At that moment, both of them chose the safest action.

……………………………………………………………………………………

Ye Zhongming brought Yellow Ball back into the Upper River Dungeon.

This was the name that survivors gave this place. That was because there was a very famous village here called Upper River Village.

Ye ZHongming chose another path this time.

The dungeon was indeed filled with dangers but if one paid attention, there were treasures all over. Ye Zhongming’s two secondary jobs. One needed materials to craft and the other needed saplings to nurture. These needed him to pay attention and collect items.

The dungeon was a very suitable place.

When he headed out, he had already found a mutated melon. This thing could attack and if a lifeform got near to it, its sprouts or vines would launch attacks. It was fast and really powerful. If one didn’t pay attention one would get injured. If normal people bumped into it, they would lose their lives easily and become this mutated melon’s nutrient.

This plant also had its benefits. As long as you could tame it, it could bring you many benefits.

As it was a mutated plant, these melon saplings had crystals. Although they were level one crystals but in the future when such crystals were rare, they would become one of the sources.

Moreover, after the melons mature, they would bear fruit. It was a delicious fruit that could strengthen one’s body.

In his last life, many bases would plant this ginseng melon. But as it was dangerous, the evolved had to be two star or above to safely harvest it so the amount planted wasn’t huge.

Ye Zhongming had found a ginseng melon sapling. He was a Gardener and had thoughts regarding this thing. Once he had his own base, he was planning to study it. If he could plant it in a large scale, this would be a sizeable sum. Not only could he solve the problem of source of level one crystals, but he could also solve the problem of food.

When he appeared near the natural gem mine, Ye Zhongming didn’t find any other useful materials or seeds. This disappointed him slightly.

But there was good news. After a few hours nearby, he saw that monster.

Three Tailed Demon Frog!

Level 4!

Ye Zhongming expected that the monster that occupied the mine would have a high level. But when he saw the green crystal on the forehead of the monster whose body was like the size of a bus, he still couldn’t help but curse.

He revived and was now two star. He gained jobs and skills that he hadn’t had before. But he was sure that these elements made him strong and allowed him to fight things that were stronger than him. But that was against level three monsters. He was asking to die if he fought four star ones.

Moreover, the Three Tailed Demon Frog was not a normal monster. It had a strong water affinity and was one that was hard to deal with.

Give up like that?

This thought flashed in his mind before he tossed it aside.

It was tough to come in so how could he head back empty-handed?

A bold plan appeared in his mind.
