Chapter 509: Other reinforcements
The size of the Ying City team was bigger than when they first set off.
The size of this team naturally caused a huge commotion. Ye Zhongming used many methods, like moving in groups, wiping out the small groups of mutated lifeforms, and avoiding the big hordes.
It wasn’t effective, but it didn’t cause a large-scale battle.
However, the methods they used targeted mutated lifeforms. It was impossible that they didn’t meet any human survivors. No matter the reason, many survivors joined the various factions and became a member of this team.
Ye Zhongming didn’t care about them. It was normal for old members of a battle squad to die in battle and new members to join. Cloud Peak also chose some members to recruit.
But unlike the factions who chose the stronger and high-level evolved, Cloud Peak chose ordinary people or those whose evolution levels were low.
To the other Ying City factions, they felt like Boss Ye was a decent person. He was doing so because he had recruited those female warriors and thus gave others a chance. Ye Zhongming didn’t answer such rumors.
But reality was about trust. Ye Zhongming had many enemies, and he had to defend against those factions who wanted to take revenge. Spies were people that humans were wary of. Even normal people or low-level people might be spies, but they could form a sense of belonging with Cloud Peak as they evolve.
This was a long process. Cloud Peak had to recruit members and get stronger, so building stronger foundations wasn’t a bad decision.
There was a weird situation when this team arrived at Cloud Port Alliance. Cloud Peak’s team had many more low-level and unevolved survivors, which starkly contrasted with the rest of their forces.
Of course, the other Ying City teams gained much apart from recruiting survivors. Twenty days of traveling were filled with many fights of different scales. They collected many demon crystals and materials. As they were close, they were able to trade with Cloud Peak. Many materials and demon crystals entered Ye Zhongming’s bag, and he traded them for better equipment for the Ying City troops.
Smart people knew that Ye Zhongming was using them but also helping them. He was able to earn, but he could also increase their strength to increase the bargaining chips he had for the Cloud Port battle.
But all factions of Ying City didn’t mind that; they got physical things that were helping them.
The former was shocked when the Cloud Port team bumped into Ying City.
They couldn’t judge the reinforcements’ evolution level, but their equipment was too good.
The five core members looked at each other and saw the shock in their eyes. They didn’t pay much attention to those ordinary factions but to that core team called Cloud Peak.
A thousand men were in the team that was dressed in white equipment!
That was shocking!
Ying City reinforcements were also shocked. They were different from people they had seen before. There was a gap in aura and equipment, but there was one similarity: they weren’t weak.
Both sides were friendly. After all, Cloud Port Alliance was the one asking for help. The five core members respected Ye Zhongming and led the Ying City reinforcements into the city.
More zombies and mutated lifeforms gathered. Both sides were in charge of one side; they walked and cleared monsters simultaneously. This was them probing each other’s strength. Both sides were satisfied and showed well-trained and effective combat strength.
Ye Zhongming didn’t feel much about Cloud Port Alliance’s strength. After all, he had witnessed super factions like Glory Army and Soul Merchant. It wasn’t surprising that three of the five core leaders were six-star evolved.
What surprised Ye Zhongming was this city.
This was a stable castle that humans built with their strength. They used the high buildings over a few streets and connected them with steel and cement. With the highest building on the outside as the mark, they closed the gap and filled up areas that weren’t high enough.
This meant that the walls were 20 stories high and 15 meters thick!
Standing below it, one felt small.
After entering, the size of the city shocked Ying City. Their party grew from 15000 at the start to 20000, and it didn't feel compact when they were arranged in the city. Each one of them had a twin room!
They didn’t have to worry about zombies here or being sneak attacked by mutated lifeforms. There was even a giant steel net covering the skies above.
How much time did a faction need to build such a war castle?
Such a question appeared in Ye Zhongming’s mind.
He was strong, Cloud Peak was strong, but if they wanted to create such a city, it would take half a year or even longer!
Was there a mysterious Builder job user here?
Both sides didn’t meet right away. Cloud Peak’s leader was the one who communicated with both sides.
Such reinforcements weren’t for free; no one was willing to fight without getting paid.
Cloud Peak naturally accepted it as Ye Zhongming was their leader. But Cloud Port Alliance had disagreements.
“Rong Cheng, did you see this list? They want a five-star evolution potion! Do you know how serious the gap we have of five-star evolved? Okay, even if we can give them a five-star potion, but look at the number of three and four-star potions. The number that our few factions have can’t even meet this requirement, and you want to agree? I welcomed this big reinforcement, but now I am disappointed. That kid doesn’t know how to accept kindness and wants to extort us!”
A middle-aged man stapped the table, and he was emotional. However, his gaze was calm. People who could sit in this position wouldn’t get angry easily.
Rong Cheng was a 30-year-old man. He smiled, “Brother Yang, relax. The negotiations haven’t started, and this is just an initial indication. Moreover, I think we can satisfy the conditions. Cloud Port has many ocean beings and materials. We are defending this advantage as long as we defend this place.”
Yang Shi scoffed but looked at the oldest person of the five.
This old man was Meng Xiangjiang, a six-star evolved like Rong Cheng and Yang Shi.
“Many reinforcements are coming, and this Ying City team is the largest and the strongest.”
Meng Xiangjiang smiled, and his voice was very stable, calming one’s senses.
“How much we give depends on how important they are to us.”
The others thought about it, and Rong Cheng was uncertain, “Uncle Jiang, you mean we should agree?”
Meng Xiangjiang smiled and shook his head, “I received this, the details of another group of reinforcements.”
