Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 967: What a scam

He could only eliminate one option on the second spin.

Ye Zhongming had the urge to shatter this wheel.

He had not seen such a scam.

Be it ordinary wheels, colorful wheels, even the demon gambling wheels, competition death wheel, ocean king wheel, etc. The Elimination Technique could work on all of them, and they followed the same rules.

But when it reached the One Step Wheel, he could only eliminate two options, he could only eliminate one now.

Won’t he have to face two punishments again?

Ye Zhongming had used his second life. If another fatal danger appeared, he wouldn’t die, but the price would be that the Earth Elf would disappear forever.

As compared to the Earth Elf, the prizes might be less valuable. Should he risk the Earth Elf for them?

He calmed himself down and thought about it. He could only eliminate one option, which was the reward explosion, as that punishment would definitely kill.

Of the remaining two, the level eight lifeform was still okay. With the people they had, they were prepared for it. But the mental energy curse…

Ye Zhongming didn’t want anything to do with it. Now that the situation had changed and he could only eliminate one punishment, he had to consider if he could take the punishment.

Finally, he decided to take the risk.

If he gave up just like that, he would feel reluctant. He wasted the second life that took more than a year to refresh, and all he could do was run away?

Ye Zhognming told everyone to retreat, and he was about to begin the second spin.

Some people said that when you wished for luck, it wouldn’t come. And when you didn’t care, it would appear.

Ye Zhongming was prepared to get hit by the mental energy curse. He was betting on himself.

Of course, he knew that if he was unlucky and received another punishment, he would feel the curse was just a curse. It would absorb some of his mental energy but not fully make it disappear.

With his recovery speed, he was confident he could resist the curse.

The needle continued to spin and showed no signs of stopping. Ye Zhongming retreated a distance away and waited patiently.

After a few seconds, the needle stopped and pointed to…

Reward!

Ye Zhongming and the few who had been paying attention heaved a sigh of relief.

Spinning the wheel nearly caused everyone to get mental illnesses.

Fortunately, the outcome was a good one.

Four rewards. Seven-star potion, two purple defensive equipment, a shining scroll… And one which was what they got this time- a golden book.

Ye Zhongming took the book but didn’t open it. He tried to eliminate more options, but the notification he got was… Unable to use the Elimination technique!

Ye Zhongming wanted to curse again.

The One Step Wheel was just going against him.

He couldn't eliminate any of the six options, three rewards and three punishments. How could he even spin? What if he got the reward explosion?

Ye Zhongming looked at the golden book. If he opened it, it would mean that the reward would belong to him. If he really got the reward explosion, he would blow up along with the reward. So, should he open it?

When Ye Zhongming was stunned, someone came to find him and told him about what had happened to Red Hair.

Ye Zhongming kept the wheel and the book and decided to wait for the future.

He returned to Cloud Peak and saw that Red Hair and her subordinates were in a standoff against Cloud Peak. They didn’t fight because Red Hair didn’t attack. She was silent. The black lines on her face didn’t disappear. Their separate genes affected her hair and spikes and showed each other's unique points.

“What happened?”

Ye Zhongming walked beside Liu Zhenghong and asked the only person who could give her an answer.

“I am unsure what happened, but it should be her gene.” She shook her head, “You mentioned that Red Hair should have died and was buried somewhere. But then she suddenly appeared and had this spike ability. Her evolution level also increased.”

No one knew how Red Hair survived. Even Red Hair herself didn’t know what happened during the period that she was unconscious.

Her revival became a mystery. Her evolution and even how she had mental energy and spikes were things that she had no idea how they came about.

“This time, that level eight lifeform’s mental energy attack was very special, but it hit Red Hair. It should have invaded her genes and caused her to lose control of her abilities. It even caused her to lose control of her mind.”

Liu Zhenghong looked at Red Hair and paused. “Although she is calm, look at her face. The black lines are still there. I think she is battling the genes or souls in her body. No one knows what will eventually happen.”

“What if she loses.” Ye Zhongming had a solemn expression.

“She would totally lose control and become a mutated lifeform that only wants blood.”

“What can I do?”

Liu Zhenghong frowned and was unsure, “You said that when you buried her, you placed a soul gem into her body. Maybe you can find some soul gems for her to see if it works.”

“Okay, I will get some.” Ye Zhongming nodded. He then left Xia Bai, Hong Xiang, and Ling Kun here.

“If she gets out of control before I return, then… Kill her.”

Ye Zhongming left immediately and headed to Blue Secret Realm. He sat in the Exquisite Floating Ball and flew towards Undead Hill.

This was the place with the most soul gems.

The imperial city wasn’t too near that place, and the Saint Light Hall army was between them. Ye Zhongming didn’t want to cause trouble, so he made a huge round to avoid them. To hide his tracks, he even flew at a height that their airforce couldn’t reach. As a result, he bumped into many strong lifeforms and was nearly shot down.

Fortunately, its speed and seclusion were decent, and he was able to get free.

Ye Zhongming used his fastest speed to kill thousands of undead lifeforms. He didn’t care about their level and returned with the soul gems. He smashed through the defenses of Saint Light Hall’s airforce to get back, and then he handed the soul gems to Liu Zhenghong.
