Apocalypse Gachapon

Simply put, the treant’s transformation… Deepened.

While the wound healed instantly, tree branches similar to its body appeared higher than his skin. There was a brown color on it. As Ye Zhongming stopped injecting mental energy, the branch didn’t grow too much but was enough to terrify the treant.

“Oh, sorry, sorry!”

Ye Zhongming raised his hands to express his apology.

The treant was afraid of two things. One was his death, and the second was turning into a plant and losing his human consciousness.

A casual touch from Ye Zhongming caused a part of his body to transform. It was also so quick that it would have taken months to occur. Obviously, the treant panicked.

He feared Ye Zhongming because he was a strong, evolved being who could easily defeat him. But now, that fear was bone deep, as the treant didn’t know that Ye Zhongming had such a skill!

In Ye Zhongming’s heart, the treant was a talent.

Cloud Peak’s crystal weapon project had taken shape. Le Dayuan, aided by his few subordinates, started to perfect the theory. The moment they completed that step, he just needed one helper, and he could complete the research and creation of one type of crystal weapon, such as grenades or guns.

During the Cloud Port trip, the crystal weapons showed off their might and were of great help to Cloud Peak. Everyone witnessed how strong they were and was interested in them.

However, the gene project, seen as the second pillar of their technology tree, had resulted in the gene warrior’s genes growing old quickly, and their strength was reducing. They could only remain in a nutrient fluid to slow the aging process and could not be used on the battlefield.

One could say that their research had suffered a huge blow, and Liu Zhenghong’s team was in a valley.

But Ye Zhongming had seen her strength in his last life and didn’t lose confidence in her. Instead, he tried many ways to help her complete her problem. That was because he knew how strong the gene warriors were and how useful they would be.

Cloud Peak would have a strong and stable force if the gene lifeforms could be a fixed unit on the battlefield with the crystal weapons. They could even deal with any faction and mutated lifeform horde.

This was why Ye Zhongming was willing to take the risk and come to Linhai. Liu Zhenghong needed the lab equipment, and her research had a huge meaning to Cloud Peak.

There was also a point that Ye Zhongming didn’t think much about, but he knew. That was the problem of talent.

Le Dayuan’s research on crystal weapons was smooth, not only because of Ye Zhongming’s technical support but also because he had a few helpers. He didn’t have to handle the unimportant steps personally, which gave him more time for the core research, which is why the crystal weapons reached their current level.

On Liu Zhenghong's side, her best helper was a doctor; the others were hand-picked from inexperienced people. Liu Zhenghong had to do most things herself. Along with gene research, which demanded experiments, Cloud Peak couldn’t satisfy the need for both soft and hard parts. Honestly, her ability to create two warriors already showed her skills.

Now that he found the machine she required, he solved part of the problem. But Ye Zhongming didn’t have any way to deal with the helpers, and Liu Zhenghong would have to develop them herself.

But the treant’s appearance gave Ye Zhongming a new idea. He could guess why the treant wanted to find Liu Zhenghong. It was because he felt like the teacher who gave a lecture in his school could devise a way to stop the tree transformation.

This was a great helper that was giving himself up to him. Although he was ugly, his heart was beautiful. He was also a professional, a prodigy, and had completed some research here.

Even if the treant didn’t ask, Ye Zhongming would find a way to get him to Cloud Peak.

Ye Zhongming felt a little uneasy because he had done something bad. He looked at the tree transformation area and blinked before touching it again.

The treant retreated. He was afraid. He couldn’t defeat him, and this person could even speed up his transformation. This person was his counter.

Now that the person was about to touch his body again, the fear made him react, and he shouted.

Okay, Ye Zhongming had to admit that his hand was itchy.

So after he saw the branch that he had created, he used… Activate!

The two skills of the Gardener job were used on the treat.

Activate was very dangerous.Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

This was the conclusion that Ye Zhongming reached in the year he had it. As it was uncertain, the activated plant would have unknown effects.

When his mental energy was reduced by a third, the branch that Ye Zhongming nurtured had shocking changes.

This change caused the treant’s scream to soften.

That branch rose from that part of his body; one part was connected, but another sharp end pointed out.

The connected part didn’t grow directly to his body but formed an oval root connected to a similar petiole.

The treant’s mouth opened wide. Looking at Ye Zhongming in shock, he lowered his head to look at that spike.

That thing was on his body. He tried it out, and it moved along with his consciousness.

Er?

He was stunned. He tried it out and realized that he could control it. He pulled and was able to pull the spike out.

“This… This…” The treant was astonished.

But the spike changed after he pulled it out; it merged with his arm, and it looked like he was holding a wooden dagger!

What was going on?

The two of them didn’t understand. The treant tried moving it and tested it for a long while before managing to pull it out from his hand, and he placed it back in its original position.

When he held the spike again and waved it, it stabbed into the thick cement wall on the side. He walked beside Ye Zhongming.

“Can you, give me a long one?”
