Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 1067.5- Ruins



Chapter 1067.5- Ruins

“Sit. Little Liang, get some people to be the sentry. Don’t let those animals enter.”

Lin Yixun sat on the ground and drank some water from his waist. He then looked at the newcomers, who were nervously standing together.

“Sit; we are all unlucky people and must take care of each other.”

The other people spoke to calm the newcomers down before Lin Yixun continued, “I know you have many questions- Let me tell you.”

He sighed, “The people who lived the longest here have spent close to a year. The other mines are the same. It isn’t easy for the first batch of people to survive.”

“I spent more than half a year here, and as my evolution level is still okay, these kids pushed me to become their leader. If you are willing to follow me, you are a member of this big family. If not, you can work alone. But let me remind you, the mine is dangerous, and there are also mutated lifeforms. There aren’t many, but they are very strong. Also, those Black Dog members are all lethal.”

“What are stone pearls? What are their use?”

Ye Zhongming suddenly spoke up, and everyone focused on his face.

He didn’t want to waste time and listen to this old man recruit people. If not for there being too many people here, which made it hard to charge, he would have directly interrogated him.

The old man was surprised.

“This is the stone pearl.” He used his gaze to stop his subordinates who wanted to teach Ye Zhongming a lesson. He took out a grey pearl and tossed it to Ye Zhongming.

Ye Zhongming caught it and took a close look.

The pearl wasn’t very smooth; instead, it was very rough. Ye Zhongming was very strong, and when he held the pearl in his hand, he felt like he could crush it.

He looked around and walked beside a torch. Using the light, he observed some dark patterns that weren’t in order. There wasn’t any energy inside it, either, so it wasn’t a material.

Ye Zhongming was confused. If not for the patterns being special, these stone pearls didn’t have any attractive points. So why would Gong Shangming be interested in them? How could he trade this for something good from Deacon Water?

“Do you know what use this thing has?” Ye Zhongming asked his second question.

“If I knew that, maybe I wouldn’t be trapped here. If you want to live, you can only use this pearl to trade for food and water.”

Lin Yixun’s temper was good and he replied Ye Zhongming.

“Has this place been collecting these pearls since the start?”

“Yes.”

“All the pearls are the same?”

“Mostly, but their smoothness is different, and so are the patterns. If you can find those that are close to glass with orderly patterns, you can trade for more food and water. I think those should be pearls of higher quality.”

Ye Zhongming nodded and didn’t say anything. He had been looking at that guy’s eyes and saw that he was honest. He didn’t hesitate or stutter, and his heartbeat didn’t mess up. There was a 90% chance that he was telling the truth.

“But I heard some news when I was trading for food, just that I don’t know if it is true or not. If you are interested, we can have a chat.”

Ye Zhongming was stunned. He nodded and returned to his seat to look at the pearl. He didn’t look like he was going to return it.

The others looked at the two of them in shock.

Lin Yuxun adjusted his body and continued. He talked about the rules, such as the stone pearls that would be handed to him to trade for food. He explained that he had some power that could allow him to trade for more resources.

People survived not on just food and water. They needed fruits, vegetables, salt, and even things that could reduce their pressure.

Like cigarettes, wine, and even drugs.

The old man would naturally take some, but as payment, he would ensure their safety, providing them land to mine and more intel.

“Black Dog thinks I am like those outside who rip everyone off. I don’t deny that I get some benefits. I eat more and drink water than all of you, but I contribute to it. I can ensure that all of you live. One day, when we are strong enough, I will charge out with all of you. Please trust me, as we have the same goal. A good organization is the basis for everything.”

Ye Zhongming laughed coldly. He didn’t deny that this old man was logical, but he didn’t believe that this old man wasn’t selfish. Lin Yixun definitely had his plan for this.

“Okay, that is it; it is time for all of you to make your choice. Those who are willing to follow me can stay. Those who aren’t willing, please leave.”

It wasn’t easy to gain trust in the apocalypse. The old man said all of that, but a few dozen people still left. They wanted to believe in themselves.

Ye Zhongming didn’t move as he had his own plan.

The newcomers were arranged very quickly. Everyone had a few hours to rest, and then they would have to work.

Ye Zhongming sat close to the wall, and he stood up when there were some noises. He jumped across the people and entered a tunnel. It was Lin Yixun’s room.

“You are here!”

Ye Zhongming saw Lin Yixun smiling at him. He was waiting for him.

“How could you tell?”

“My job is a Seer.”

Ye Zhongming nodded and accepted that explanation. Seer was a support job that could scout and judge things. This old man had seen his evolution level. He was impressed with how calm this old man was.

“You want the stone pearls, right?”

“Don’t tell me that your news was a lie. If not, you will die a terrible death.”

“No, it is real, but I want you to promise me something.”

“Bring you out?”

“Alive. Bring me out alive.”

“Okay.”

Lin Yixun heaved a sigh of relief and adjusted himself, “This isn’t the real mine. It is just a tunnel. The real mine is below… Ruins!”
