Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 943: Ying City rat problem

If not for the surrounding buildings being damaged, Mu Xinfei might have thought that this wasn’t the apocalypse when she arrived on the streets of Ying City.

There were so few zombies in Ying City.

The 200 thousand Posthumous City warriors had focused on clearing the zombies in Ying City.

Talking Lady was missing, Red Hair was resting in Cloud Peak. This reduced the number of Ying City zombies to an extremely low level.

“Without zombies, the survivors here…”

Mu Xinfei turned and looked at Ye Zhongming, who was welcoming her.

If the number of zombies here dropped, the people who lived here would lose their biggest source of demon crystals, and their evolution speed would slow. The apocalypse was a river, and one was riding against the current. This meant that one would slowly be eliminated.

Ye Zhongming smiled, “There are zombies in other places.”

When Talking Lady and Red Hair were here, the zombies wouldn’t cause a huge war among themselves. They also wouldn’t have an over ten thousand people-scale conflict with humans. Then what did the zombies feed on?

Mutated animals.

Ying City had many mutated animals, no fewer than zombies, especially with the Rat King, who controlled many subordinates. Mutated rats also reproduced exceptionally quickly. Although it wasn’t as terrifying as during peacetime, they could reproduce at least seven to eight times a year.

This reproduction speed barely allowed them to survive the attacks of humans and zombies.

As these rats were underground, not many of them went to attack Cloud Peak. After fleeing back, they went into their caves, so Cloud Peak ignored them so they wouldn’t suffer many losses.

In the few days after the siege, these mutated rats became more active. They even started to head out to search for food openly. They had begun attacking human camps. Those small-scale zombie hordes also turned into their top targets.

Although the humans also started to hunt them, but they didn’t kill many. That wasn’t much compared to the overall number of rats in Ying City.

“Others?” Mu Xinfei was stunned. She wanted to ask, but suddenly, the people at the front gave a warning. She took a look and saw that there was a patch of broken limbs on the side of the road. A group of around a hundred zombies had died there. Half the street was covered by purple flesh and blood. From the freshness of the flesh, those zombies should have been killed just a while ago.

Due to the caravan, the murderers were scared off and nowhere to be seen.

This was just the appearance. The killers were still here. If not, those at the front wouldn’t give the warning. Mu Xinfei took a close look and saw that in the dark corners of the abandoned buildings, there were figures the size of small dogs to the size of boars. They were staring at the caravan with their green eyes. There were a few hundred, just from what they could see.

“Them.”

Ye Zhongming raised his chin and said he was referring to these mutated rats.

“These mutated rats have turned into Ying City’s boss. They will come out to feed in groups, and their numbers are growing.”

Mu Xinfei nodded. These unassuming lifeforms of peacetime had evolved into terrifying things in the apocalypse. Especially those huge groups that reproduced quickly.

As a person from the resistance zone, she received a lot of news. Based on what she knew, mutated rats, flies, mosquitoes, ants, etc., they used their group advantage to turn into groups as scary as zombie hordes; when they went out as a group to hunt, the millions of them terrified survivors.

“You are not going to clear them?”

Mu Xinfei saw that the mutated rats didn’t dare to attack the caravan. She ordered them to proceed while asking Ye Zhongming.

“There aren’t any zombies in Ying City, so we should have something for survivors to kill. Moreover, they aren’t fat enough.” Ye Zhongming smiled.

Mu Xinfei nodded and knew that Ye Zhongming wanted to nurture these rats for some time before dealing with them.

When they arrived at Cloud Peak, Mu Xinfei wanted to let her subordinates set up camp outside, but Ye Zhongming told them to just drive in.

Cloud Peak shocked Mu Xinfei.

The walls here were high and thick. The gates were firm. But this wasn’t much to her after she saw Sharp Peak Mountain. What shocked her were those defensive weapons on the walls.

The giant crossbows with grey arrows that were two meters long. Each crossbow even had a few white arrows!

Between those crossbows were giant cannons. Mu Xinfei even saw that some Cloud Peak tech members were adjusting cannons she had never seen before.

She couldn’t imagine that crystal weapons could be so massive if she hadn't seen it herself. How many crystals did they have to use to fire one shot? How many crystals would be spent after one fight?

They were burning money.

Apart from that, she even some a patch of gilded cannibal flowers. The corrosive earth had spread hundreds of meters. Apart from Cannibal Flowers, there were two mutated plants she had never seen before. There were actually crystals on them.

Cloud Peak was actually farming mutated plants?

Looking at the scale, their technique should be very mature, which meant that they didn’t lack low-level crystals.

After which, something that shocked her even more happened.

She thought that the team that followed Ye Zhongming to welcome her was Cloud Peak’s strongest. But when she entered and took a look, she saw many squads in their training. From their aura to their equipment, they were as strong as the team beside him.

Actually, Xia Lei’s monitoring squad was the one that followed Ye Zhongming out. Xia Bai and her squad were outside on a mission.

When Mu Xinfei entered the guest villa, she had only one thought.

Cloud Peak had improved again in a short time. Moreover, it was a huge improvement!

Xia Lei and Guang Yao were here, too.

Mu Xinfei had many thoughts when she saw Guang Yao. They were both the hope of a new generation for the resistance zone. Now, she had to ask people for help. Guang Yao also ended up as that person’s subordinate.

The world was truly uncertain.

“Although there aren’t any signs, I think something good will happen today.” Ye Zhongming smiled.

Mu Xinfei nodded, “if you don’t look down on our gun production line, that should be a good thing.”

Ye Zhongming and Xia Lei looked at each other and smiled.
