Chapter 290: Ignition
Intel was reported to Ye Zhongming so that he could decide what to do next.
Ye Zhongming was impressed by these small factions. They might not have as many evolved as those large factions; they might not have the ability to kill level-three mutated lifeforms and even get stolen and bullied by those large factions.
But they had their own style.
For example, in terms of scouting. The methods they used were unheard of by Ye Zhongming. They could use buildings, tools, and geography. Some small teams even used frequencies to scout. Some had university students on their team.
This intel allowed Ye Zhongming to understand what was happening near the wheel. Moreover, he drew clear boundaries on the map.
This was the edge of the three factions.
“Boss Ye, these groups are very active, and I think they are about to try things out. Should we wait and then enjoy the spoils?”
Since Ye Zhongming suppressed Tong Hu, he was respectful towards him. The people he mentioned were the alliance comprised of the top 50 factions in Ying City.
Those small faction members were excited since he learned that the large factions were working together and planning to spin the wheel.
Usually, they were all suppressed by those large factions. Small factions even had their living spaces taken away from them. They were forced out of their familiar homes and made to find other places.
In the apocalypse, a foreign environment might mean death.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSmall factions might even get their items stolen and destroyed by those proud fellows. They relied on their faction to attack the small factions and even steal the crystals that they had. If they were unhappy, they would just kill them.
When they wanted to spin the wheels occupied by the large factions, those factions would extort them.
Such a thing often happened. Anyways, the small factions didn’t like the big factions at all.
Now that everyone was working together, although their goal wasn’t to attack those big factions, their final goal was the same. Everyone knew that this was a competition. It would be fantastic if they could do what those big factions couldn’t. This proved that they weren’t weaker than those people. The reason why there was a gap was because they weren’t as lucky.
Thus, the small faction alliance was pumped up and wanted to prove themselves.
Their confidence had reached a whole new level, especially after gaining those evolution potions and shining weapons.
Morale grew higher in this situation, which was better than expected.
“No.” he shook his head, “We will take the initiative.”
Take initiative? Ye Zhongming was everyone’s focus. The faction bosses sat next to Ye Zhongming. They were shocked after hearing what he said.
The best way was to kill and steal, so why did they want to stand out?
Ye Zhongming knew that he had to rely on these people. At the same time, these people had to adapt to the apocalypse. The apocalypse felt like a battle to the death, but judgment was critical.
“These mutated lifeforms are waiting for the evolution blood. They can’t get it themselves and need help.”
Many people nodded. That was true. The faction alliance had done such a thing before, but the outcome wasn’t good, and mutated lifeforms killed them.
“They won’t let people in to spin. It is the same as how we won’t give up even though we know it is dangerous.”
“But this doesn’t mean they will stop people from spinning the wheel.”
Ye Zhongming pointed out the critical problem.
“In other words, the real danger isn’t spinning the wheel but how to retreat after the evolution blood appears.”
Everyone was shocked. They ignored this problem. They saw the hordes and felt it would be dangerous to get close to them. But they forgot that those mutated lifeforms were controlled by their kings. Their final goal was to get the blood. They needed humans to spin the wheel, so the real problem was how to leave safely.
Those monsters didn’t mind eating humans after they consumed the blood.
After all, without the evolution blood, humans were their best source of energy.
Mutated lifeforms were already really intelligent after reaching such a level. They knew that humans craved the wheel, so they would wait for you to come over and not stop you.
“But Boss Ye…” A small faction leader wanted to speak, but he stopped. He thought about it before saying, “Even if we go, how will we retreat? The group of us don’t look like we can stop so many mutated lifeforms.”
Ye Zhongming smiled, “Even if all the factions join our team and we gather all the survivors of Ying City, we are still not their match.”
“But I won’t joke with my life. I want to spin the wheel. That is the most dangerous thing. Do I look like someone that wants to die?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEveryone laughed. Everyone knew that only Ye Zhongming was rich enough to spin the wheel. He was indeed in the most danger.
“If things go smoothly, things might be much simpler than we think.”

Old Li, Zhao Xingmei, Zhang Dalong, Lei Dongbao, Old Yuan, etc. Ying City faction heads were gathered in that mall. Their men gathered here over the days; there were over three thousand. All of them were evolved.
As for the regular members, they didn’t come. If there were too many humans, they would draw attention. Another reason was that this wasn’t a place to rely on numbers to win.
“The plan is set, so does anyone have anything to say?” Old Li looked around and sighed. They quarreled and fought with each other, but they couldn’t think of a good plan. Even Star Beauty Company and Ying City Jail fought. They barely agreed for the sake of the wheel, but they were still unhappy with each other, and everyone felt like they were right.
After discussing it for a few days, he devised a plan similar to the first. Old Li felt like the chance of success wasn’t high.
But the wheel was too attractive. Old Li didn’t want to give up on the chance to try his luck. What if they succeeded, they would become much stronger.
As for how to split it, that would be another bloody battle.
This was the first time he missed Bai Feng. If he was here and Renxing Battle Squad was here, someone with prestige could balance all the factions. The situation would be much better then.
But his status was unknown; some even said that Renxing Battle Squad had a coup…
“Boss, Boss!”
A subordinate ran in in a panic. His face was filled with disbelief.
“What happened? Stay calm.” This person was Lei Dongbao’s subordinate. He frowned and scolded him.
“Someone, a bunch of people, went to spin the wheel!”
Lei Dongbai jumped up instantly.
