Apocalypse Gacha Chapter 136- Stat Stone

This thing could be eaten.

Speaking of which, the fact that the Stat Stone could be eaten was something that was figured out by total accident in his last life.

A soldier fought using a weapon with a Stat Stone. The gun was destroyed as it was too intense, and the stone shattered, dropping onto the battlefield.

A survivor about to starve couldn't find any food, and it treated the small shattered Stat Stone as food. Who knew that he would survive and his body would change?

He became much stronger.

The stat he got was based on what stats the Stat Stone he ate had.

This news slowly spread to the world. Not only could the Stat Stone raise weapon stats, but it also allowed humans to have abilities related to the stone itself after eating it.

In the last life, this finding shocked the world. The prices were stable in the beginning, and only Smiths used them. But now its prices soared. Until Ye Zhongming's rebirth, the price had reached an unbelievable level; even a six-star expert like Ye Zhongming couldn't afford it.

But now, the other use of this stone had not been found. If things proceeded as planned, it would be useless for another 4-5 years, and people wouldn't know its value.

Ye Zhongming felt more excited the more he thought about it. He felt like this was a chance for him. He could make use of this opportunity to stock up on Stat Stones.

Of course, that was just an idea. After all, even before people learned about its use, the price of a Stat Stone wasn't too low, and there weren't many of them. Although the wheels dropped, the chance of bumping into one was low. Whether or not they could get one depended on luck.

The stat stone was powerful, but it was restrictive, and it depended on evolution.

After this body-strengthening effect was found, people started to study the stone. Survivors then found that the Stat Stones had different levels, which had to do with the gachapons you got from.

This meant that all gachapon wheels dropped Stat Stones; the difference was that the level one wheel dropped a level one stone, and the level nine one dropped a level nine stone with level nine stats.

The stones were useful for all humans but the most useful for ordinary people as they hadn't evolved yet, and all their stats were relatively low. Once one aspect was increased, it would be very apparent. As for their use on evolved, survivors realized that the effect was based on a negative one theorem.

The level of the stat stone deducting the current evolved's star level; if it is not negative, then the stat stone would be helpful too, and the bigger the number, the more significant the effect of the stone.

For example, if a level one evolved ate the stone from a level one wheel, the result would be zero, so the stone would still be helpful. If a level two evolved ate it, the stone would not have an effect. Another example would be if a level one evolved ate a stone from a level two wheel; the outcome would be positive, so his impact would be much better than if he ate a level one stat stone.

This theory wasn't too difficult to understand, and it was relevant in many other areas, just that it was most apparent to describe the effect of the stat stone.

But although it was like that in theory, for example, if a level one evolved ate a level nine stone, he would have the most significant effect; it was not like that in truth as it affected the balance of their body.

Think about it: if a one-star evolved with the strength of a nine-star on one aspect, for example, getting a nine-star evolved's power, could he use it? The toughness of his bone, the firmness of his skin, and the reaction of his brain would not be able to keep up. If he had that kind of strength, there would only be one outcome-- Death.

So typically speaking, people won't eat a stat stone that was two levels above their current level as it would be a waste and it was also really dangerous.

Apart from that, consumption also had some restrictions. The same stat stones could only be eaten once. If an evolved ate one that added speed, he couldn't use anything else that added speed, even if he found a better stone in the future.

This also stopped the possibility of people using infinite stones to strengthen themselves.

Thoughts flashed across his mind regarding the stones, which made him smile. He was one-star evolved now and could use a three-star stone at most. This level two wheel stone was also decent for him. One had to say that he was pretty lucky.

The most valuable thing on this wheel was the potion, after which was this unassuming stat stone. With the number of crystals he had, he could spin seven times. But as he had to make the puppet, he needed to keep at least five crystals so he could, at most, spin six times. It would be fortunate if he got one of the two during those six tries.

He suppressed his nervousness and looked around warily. After noticing that there was nothing suspicious, he took out the level two crystals that he got from Gu Pan and started to spin.

With the energy, the level two-wheel started to buzz and started its first spin since descending.

Ye Zhongming stared at it and hoped to get the potion or the stat stone.

Unfortunately, even with the Elimination Technique, the needle landed on a useless bucket of oil.

He pouted, and he continued…

In the night sky, the level two wheel started to shine.

In the east district water tunnel, two people headed up. If Ye Zhongming were here, he would realize that these two were the ones that dragged that woman away, Yue Chao and Yang Shilong.

"Damn, that girl was so weak, I didn't have enough, and she died; waste our effort to head out late at night to throw her body."

Yang Shilong slapped off the dirt on his shirt and was unhappy.

"No choice; the weather isn't cold now. If we tossed it in the base, it might spread diseases, and the spell might be so bad. If we toss it over the walls, the zombies might go mad, so we have no choice."

Yang Shilong agreed; he was just complaining about it. He scratched his lower body and wanted to suggest finding another person to have fun with. But the moment he was about to say that, his gaze was attracted by the light in the nearby building. He was stunned for five seconds before reacting. Thus one could hear his shouts ringing across the base.

"Someone is spinning the level two wheel!"
