Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1070: Two secrets

Ye Zhongming passed his dagger to him without any hesitation.

This shocked the three of them. After taking it with some uncertainty, their faces were filled with joy.

They didn’t know how this guy brought such a good thing in, but it wasn’t important. What was important was that this weapon belonged to them.

Their hunts would become safer and more efficient in the future. They would also get more food, and the benefits would be a chain reaction.

The guy with the two pieces of meat looked at the captain but saw him slightly shake his head.

Ye Zhongming saw their actions, but he didn’t care.

His strength would drop after he gave up his weapon. Now that it was three against one and they also had a weapon, that person was asking if they should kill Ye Zhongmingming.

Smart people cared more about their interests in the apocalypse than they did during peacetime.

This captain didn’t agree, not because he wasn’t a good person. Although Collectors had a reputation for being honest and having principles, it didn’t mean they weren’t greedy. The captain didn’t agree because Ye Zhongming had nothing valuable on him besides a stone pearl.

Moreover, Ye Zhongming had previously helped them, leaving them with a good impression.

“Speak.”

Ye Zhongming understood their thoughts, but he didn’t care. The three of them were like rabbits before a lion. They couldn’t do much to him even if he let them attack.

“Two methods.”

That captain’s body recovered quickly, which surprised Ye Zhongming. He probably had some body technique or was a related job user which had good healing.

“First is to excavate yourself. We know a place with a lot of stone pearls. If you could mine there, you can trade for enough food and water and even trade for other good things.”

“But many beasts occupy that place, and their levels are high. Until now, no one can mine there.”

The captain identified the path while saying. He looked at Ye Zhongming’s torch and was in thought, “You can also guess this method and it also proves that these beasts produce the stone pearl. After all, that is their base, so naturally, there will be more stone pearls. Many people know about that place, but no one headed there. After all, people in the mines live worse than pigs and dogs. Everyone wants to head out, but they have their own plans. They won’t clear that place as there are only two tunnels there. Each of them isn’t wide, and the only way is to use human life. Who would be willing to die?”

He smiled mockingly. No one knew if he was mocking himself or others.

Seeing that Ye Zhongming didn’t say anything, he continued, “The second way is the secret I was talking about. When you were tossed down, you should have come from the 4th hole, right?”

Ye Zhongming nodded; that was the truth.

“But we came from the third hole.”

“En?” Ye Zhongming was stunned and quickly reacted, “You are saying that the mines are connected?”

“Smart!” That person didn’t expect Ye Zhongming to get it instantly and praised, “The four mines were connected a few months ago, but only the Collectors know.”

“What does that have to do with the stone pearls?”

Ye Zhongming had a guess, but because he didn’t understand the situation, he didn’t say anything.

“Storage!”

The captain waved, “The mines existed for over a year and evolved, being tossed in every period of time, from one to two stars to three to five stars. Although people would die, those who live are enough to form a small society.”

“Lin Yixun and Black Dog are the superiors in these societies. Of course, Collectors have their own kings, but these kings move alone and rarely gather together.”

As expected.

He had guessed the captain’s words. These higher-ups had some stone pearls; if you added them together, they would be a sizeable amount.

“These people have many stone pearls. If they can give it to you, it is the fastest way to get stone pearls.“

That captain smiled, and so did the other two. They weren’t mocking Ye Zhongming; they just felt that either method was impossible.

They mentioned it was a secret. Apart from the four mines being connected, the other things were just fresh news but weren’t valuable information.

But Ye Zhongming was calm and didn’t mind their laughter. He was just thinking about something.

The few of them looked at each other and felt like this young man was weird.

But they didn’t think much as this young man was a newcomer. It was normal that he cared about living. He was probably lied to that stone pearls could be traded for freedom, so he believed them.

It was worth it to trade two pieces of news that Collectors all knew after living for some time in this place to get a white piece of weapon.

The three of them were having illusions about their wonderful futures.

Humans were like that. When they adapted to hell, a slight change would make them think that hell was good.

This was their adaptability.

“Do you know what the highest-level monster is in that cave?”

Ye Zhongming asked.

“Ah? Oh.” The captain was stunned and wondered if he wanted to kill them. But because of the white weapon, he still answered, “Someone saw a level-six monster enter, but I am not sure what the highest-level monster inside was.”

“Have you seen level seven or eight monsters?”

Ye Zhongming asked.

“You are joking. If we saw such a monster, would we still be alive?”

“That is true.” Ye Zhongming made his mind up, “Bring me there!”
