Chapter 198: Easiest Gains

Some of their legs were shivering when they were walking down the hill.

These were a few hundred level-two monsters. For these people who wanted to flee when they saw two level two monsters previously, the difference now was huge.

After two days of rest, Ye Zhongming’s injuries were much better. Eating level-two monster meat also helped him to recover. Although he still needed some time to recover fully, he didn’t need support to walk anymore. He even felt he could fight if it weren’t too intense.

When they were at the valley's edge, a gory and intensely smelly smell shot into their noses, causing them to frown.

The smell was horrible.

They chose a direction and entered the valley from it.

Only a few Cloud Hooves were standing in the valley. Most of them were lying on the ground and panting. Their red fur was covered in sweat or blood, and they snorted. White air came out from their noses, and their eyes were bloodshot.

Many Cloud Hooves were lying down; they either lost their lives or were too tired and died from a lack of energy.

Some noticed the humans and wanted to attack, but after struggling to get up, their limbs went soft, and they fell back to the ground. They tried their best to warn the humans, but to Ye Zhongming, that sounded like a weak neigh.

“Stay away from those alive and attack the dead ones; dig their crystals out.”

Ye Zhongming gave the order, but he didn’t move. He just stood behind to look. He glanced at their bodies, and he was warning them.

If he noticed some greedy people, he would kill them without hesitation. He would do the same, even if it were Candy or her brother.

He didn’t need those two-faced members, and there was no one here that he couldn’t bear to kill.

Level two crystals were a strategic resource at this stage, and Ye Zhongming didn’t allow people to be greedy for them.

Few were nervous when they first started, afraid that the Cloud Hooves would attack.

But they realized that the Fallen Red Juice was effective. They were out of energy and couldn’t fight back at all. They could only watch as their friends got killed and had their crystals dug out. They could only make sounds to show their rage.

Slowly, they got more and more bold. These Cloud Hooves were of no threat at all. They got more daring and thus got more efficient. They started to dig into the crystals excitedly. Although they knew that the thing didn’t belong to them, being able to do this themselves allowed them to experience happiness.

The feeling of gain was something that brought one happiness.

But sometimes, happiness leads to sadness.

One of them got excited and saw a dying Cloud Hooves; he wanted to kill it to dig the crystal.

But the moment he got close, that Cloud Hoof used its final bit of energy to use its skill- Jumping Strike, kicking him far out. When he fell to the ground, his chest had caved in, and he stopped breathing. The level two crystals he had in his hands scattered like when someone was tossing incense paper.

Candy and the others ran over, but they noticed he was dead.

The final hit of the level two beast showed that a one-star evolved was too weak.

“Don’t touch those that are still alive!”

Ye Zhongming said coldly, and his expression wasn’t good. There were only a few of them, and one death lowered their efficiency. He didn’t know if the movement here would attract other monsters, so it was best if they finished it quickly.

Candy wanted to say something, but Tang Tian’s eyes stopped her. He knew that her sister didn’t have high EQ and was soft-hearted, and she felt that Ye Zhongming was a little heartless to say such things now. But he understood that it wasn’t his fault. He clarified that they shouldn’t touch those alive and deal with the dead. The guy didn’t listen, which was why he died.

Moreover, everyone knew how the team treated Ye Zhongming when he was injured. It would be weird if Ye Zhongming even liked them. Since they weren’t close and it was the apocalypse, it was not practical to make him sad or show pity.

He tapped his dumb sister and gave Ye Zhongming a look of apology.

Ye Zhongming nodded and didn’t say anything. He joined in and started digging crystals. He summoned the Osmium Giant to punch those dying Cloud Hooves. It had high defense and durability, so it would stumble and lose some durability even if attacked.

The Osmium’s appearance shocked the others, and their evaluation of Ye Zhongming’s strength increased.

A few of them were busy for over an hour, and they dug most of the crystals in the valley. At this time, some stronger ones who ate lesser grass regained some strength and warned the group. There were even a few who prepared to attack.

But the valley was huge, and after Ye Zhongming and the others avoided them, those Cloud Hooves couldn’t do anything to them.

“Select some that die with complete corpses and place them at the entrance. Slice their veins and let their blood flow.”

Tang Tian and the others didn’t understand, but they just listened. After they did it, Ye Zhongming glanced at one of them. He flicked his Moon Edge to flick open his chest, and large amounts of blood spat.

“You...”

Candy stared at him in rage and was furious that he was killed.

Tang Tian sighed.

Ye Zhongming looked at her coldly. He reached for the guy’s clothes and took out three level-two crystals.

Candy was stunned and instantly understood. She lowered her head, and her rage disappeared.

This partner stole crystals.

“Go!”

Ye Zhongming brought the rest to retreat onto the hill, but they didn’t leave and just waited there.

A few of them didn’t understand, but Ye Zhongming was still filled with killing intent, and no one dared to speak.

Half an hour later, a giant figure appeared in the sky above the valley.n0velusb.c0m
