Apocalypse Gachapon

Ye Zhongming sighed slightly. Regarding the decline of the Changxu Water Race, he no longer felt the same complete sympathy as before.

The reason he mentioned the name ‘Bing Shengning’ was that this person was a member of the Changxu Water Race.

He was from the same era as the 101st generation Bronze Order Leader and was also a good friend.

Earlier, in the store, at the end of what Ye Zhongming learned from the mask’s inner layer, the Bronze Order Leader explained why he betrayed the Star-Eye Clan. After leaving these materials and legacy behind, he led the Bronze Team and started the path of rebellion.

The reason for rebelling against his own race, in Ye Zhongming’s current view, was that he had been misled by others. They painted a grand picture for the Bronze Order Leader, promising how things would be in the future, how the future would unfold, and highlighting the current state of affairs, which they claimed needed to change.

Of course, Ye Zhongming could not know what the Bronze Order Leader was thinking at the time—whether he already had rebellious intentions or was completely influenced by others. However, one undeniable point was that during this process, Bing Shengning played a role in fueling the flames.

It wasn’t just the Bronze Order Leader of the Star-Eye Clan alone; this member of the Changxu Water Race also persuaded many people from other races. They rebelled against their own races to establish a brand new alliance, hoping to seize power.

Among them included the people of Huo’er Star.

What happened later with the Huo’er Star people, Ye Zhongming did not know, but he estimated they probably failed as well. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the heavy-handed treatment the Changxu Water Race received from them ever since.

“How do you know Bing Shengning?”

He knew that Ye Zhongming was someone who had just arrived from his home planet and definitely wouldn’t know much about the history of the cosmic races, let alone this name, which was somewhat taboo even within the Changxu Water Race and other races.

Ye Zhongming sighed slightly. He’s expression had already given the answer; there really was such a person as Bing Shengning.

“Was he once the clan leader of the Changxu Water Race?”

He forced herself to suppress her fluctuating emotions and nodded, but the meaning in her eyes told Ye Zhongming that if he couldn’t answer He’s question, then this current clan leader of the Changxu Water Race would not consider speaking further.

“I need a definite answer, then I can tell you my purpose.”

Ye Zhongming was equally firm.

He clenched her fists and said: “Yes, he was a member of the Changxu Water Race, and he was the clan leader for a long time. However, he was a sinner of the Changxu Water Race. He bears half the responsibility for the clan’s situation today. He offended far too many people, turned far too many friends into enemies!”

These words essentially defined the nature of these matters.

Ye Zhongming chewed the food in his mouth and stopped speaking. He sat quietly to the side and waited.

After Ye Zhongming finished eating, he finally spoke: “In the past, your Sacred Sigils could perform combined attacks, right?”

He nodded in affirmation, waiting for Ye Zhongming to continue.

“But the method of energy circulation, and the related other techniques, have been lost by now, haven’t they?”

“No, not lost!”

He almost said this through gritted teeth. “He was a traitor! A power maniac! To prolong his rule, he killed all the clansmen who mastered this ability! Such a powerful ability of our Changxu Water Race could only be controlled by himself. Yes, this ability was very difficult, so difficult that those who mastered it needed very high talent and strength, but… it was also an important reason why we could gain a foothold among the cosmic races. Yet, because of his selfishness, this ability was lost with his disappearance!”

“He disappeared?”

“Yes, disappeared. After his crazy plan was exposed, he vanished without a trace, taking his pipe dream with him, disappeared!”

“Leaving us behind, to survive alone!”

He’s voice even changed a bit, showing the extent of her resentment, even hatred, towards this Bing Shengning.

Ye Zhongming reached out and patted He’s shoulder, comforting her to calm down. After all, things had passed for too many years; Bing Shengning couldn’t possibly still be alive, so what use was her hatred? The urgent matter now was to rebuild the Changxu Water Race.

“I know of a place where the legacy of your clan’s ability might be inside.”

Halfway through hearing this, He stood up, her face flushed red and her body trembling slightly as she looked at Ye Zhongming, extremely focused, trying to discern if Ye Zhongming was deceiving her.

But she immediately realized that the man she had sworn to follow would not deceive her. After all, that ability was rarely mentioned now, and Ye Zhongming shouldn’t know about it. Moreover, he wasn’t the type to speak irresponsibly.

“You, how could you possibly know about this, this matter?”

Ye Zhongming shook his head: “Don’t ask. I cannot say. And also, don’t be too happy too soon. I am not clear whether that place actually has your lost ability or not.”

“But it’s worth us going to look, isn’t it?” He’s voice trembled as she spoke.

“Yes, very much worth it.” Ye Zhongming stood up, picked up the tray, and as he walked out, he said: “When conditions permit, we will go there to search.”

“But…” He hesitated.

“Among the prizes I selected, there is a batch of high-grade specimen cultivation pods.”

Ye Zhongming went out the door, leaving behind these words, and He inside the room, her eyes reddening.

………………………………

After sending away the tray, Ye Zhongming knew that this time, He had likely truly given her allegiance.

That ability of combined Sacred Sigil attacks not only required the legacy, but also needed a very rare substance as a guide during cultivation and mastery. That thing was very scarce and hard to find now. It was only used in the manufacturing of some special equipment. Among the relatively easier items to buy that contained a bit of this substance were the high-grade specimen cultivation pods; their core components contained this substance.

It was just that once this substance was extracted, this expensive item would be completely ruined. For every Changxu Water Race member who wanted to master the combined Sacred Symbol attack ability, they needed at least the quantity contained in three high-grade specimen cultivation pods. It could be said that learning this ability required not only finding the legacy but also having money.

Ye Zhongming not only found them a clue to their lost unique skill but also indicated he would provide the necessary substance. How could such actions not make He give her allegiance?

He walked to the central part of the aircraft. Here, the front was the cockpit, and the back was the command room. Now, Cheng Liujin and the others had gathered here, even White Robe, whose injuries had mostly healed, was present.

Seeing Ye Zhongming walk in, these people collectively looked over. White Robe directly jumped over, put an arm around Ye Zhongming’s shoulder, and pulled him towards the large conference table.

“Kid, you quickly explain to me, why are there so many useless things among the rewards you selected? Cheng Liujin and I tallied it up; good grief, over a hundred thousand points! Even if you have money, you can’t waste it like this! If you don’t give me a reason today, when we get back to the clan, the two of us will fight! I’ll suppress my strength, and you are not allowed to transform.”

Cheng Liujin, Aslan, even Jie Kui, who performed well in the Novice battlefield, and Helsky, who had clearly aligned himself with Ye Zhongming, all stared intently at Ye Zhongming.

Their expression wasn’t that of looking at the Novice number one, but rather that of looking at a spendthrift.
