“Wait!”
A voice spread from the party ahead, and a middle-aged guy in silver leather armor walked out.
He raised one hand, and the others lowered their barrels. They were 45 degrees lower but didn’t put their guns down.
Before coming here, Zhang Hengzhou planned to kill those who dared to steal things from them.
In the half year that C2 Resistance Zone had absorbed them, he climbed to the deputy leader position. He cherished it. For a person who joined midway, this promotion speed was something to be proud of.
What did he rely on to get to this position? It was a simple formula. Listen to your bosses like you were their grandson and care for your subordinates like a nanny.
The people following him were scattered into the other forces, and he was appointed captain. In half a month, he gained his team’s recognition and was then promoted. A month later, he gained more recognition and was then promoted to deputy leader.
Although the division had four deputies and the C2 Resistance Zone wasn’t as strong as C1, he had the most power in his division. He always left the good things to his subordinates. This seemingly foolish action made him more famous and helped him get more in the future.
Coming here for the meeting with the Resistance Zone heads was a recognition of his ability.
When he heard that someone had stolen things from his division, he did not get angry; he was silently happy. He knew that this was a chance.
Under his leadership, he wanted to forcefully obtain the prey and suppress the other evolved to benefit his team. This would help solidify his potion.
His reputation might even rise in the four reputation zones.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe reputation of a rising star will bring him unimaginable benefits.
But from far away, he saw the team his division was facing and was shocked.
He saw a bunch of silver.
This was not something a normal faction could have. When he got up close, he felt bitter deep down, and he knew that things weren’t easy today.
Half of this team was covered in full silver!
His division didn’t even have such luxurious equipment.
Zhang Hengzhou thought about it, but he had only heard of bodyguard squads having such equipment.
Who were these people? Why would they appear here?
Compared to the other survivors terrified of Cloud Peak’s silver equipment, Zhang Hengzhou was only shocked. After all, the resistance zones had many good items, and he had seen many of them. They could form a full silver squad of 500. If they gathered those core teams, it would be more than 500!
But to say that he would attack such a team was not possible. He didn’t have the confidence. If they had a conflict and his 2000 people suffered huge losses, he wouldn’t be able to answer to his commander.
Thus, after seeing the team becwary and bloodthirsty against his forces, Zhang Hengzhou decided to stop the situation from worsening.
“You… Who are you?”
Ye Zhongming looked at Zhang Hengzhou and the resistance zone warriors and said solemnly, “I am not used to people pointing guns at me.”
Zhang Hengzhou frowned and said, “If you experience enough, you will get used to it.”
“If you want others to get used to it, did you think whether or not you are strong enough?”
“I might not be, but the Resistance Zone is.”
“The group of cowards that knew the apocalypse was coming but chose to hide?”
“Mind your words.”
“I don’t need you to remindabout that.”
Their words were feisty, and both sides were a spark from exploding.
At this time, a guy whispered something to Zhang Hengzhou. The guy who was in a standstill against Ye Zhongming was shocked.
That guy used a special ability, so even with Ye Zhongming’s hearing ability, he didn’t hear what he said, but it had to do with him and his side. He felt like this six-star deputy commander was thinking about retreating.
What caused that? Ye Zhongming glanced around the enemy formation.
“Keep our spoils!”
Ye Zhongming searched while giving the order. He was not planning to give up on these items. If they wanted to fight, then so be it!
Their subordinates started to shift the deer bodies back, and smovement was made on the other side. But because Zhang Hengzhou didn’t give an order, so they didn’t do much.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing the bodies being kept, Zhang Hengzhou knew there was no need to fight. Unless he wanted to snatch those things back, he just stared viciously at Ye Zhongming before leading his team away.
“I thought they were strong, didn’t know they were cowards!”
The influencer scoffed and gave a mocking glance.
It might seem like her team was being suppressed, but it was because she didn’t know what Ye Zhongming planned and didn’t want to spoil things by having conflicts with the resistance zone.
But now that Ye Zhongming was here, he was in charge. Even if he told her to attack Sharp Peak, she would.
Zhao Xingmei frowned and didn’t understand why that team, which was similar in strength to hers, would leave.
“They are afraid of Xia Bai.”
Ye Zhongming explained.
He found the reason why they retreated. It was because of an equipment.
“There was a famous comic; there was an equipment called Combat Strength Tester that can record one’s combat strength’s value.”
Everyone knew about that comic.
“The wheel has similar equipment, but it isn’t exactly the same. But it could show the survivor’s evolution level and even average equipment level. That equipment is called-- White Mirror!”
Everyone was shocked, as they didn’t expect such a piece of equipment to exist. After learning about it, it wasn’t hard to understand why they would retreat. Xia Bai was level seven, which was rare even at the top of the apocalypse. All of them were overlords and true experts.
Although Xia Bai’s purple mask’s glow was hidden, the White Mirror could show her average equipment level. That was shocking, and that might have been another reason.
They had strong backing, but there was no reason to take on this initial loss.
Everyone returned to camp after learning about the situation. But everyone knew they had offended a division before arriving at the Sharp Peak. This simple meeting was going to have many changes.
