Apocalypse Gacha Chapter 1486- First time Cloud Peak boss attacked

Every Cloud Peak warrior was waiting for Ye Zhongming's command.

Due to the elevated position of the battle formation, they had a clear view of everything happening below. Seeing the monsters break through the gravel ground and enter the small grassland, everyone prepared to attack.

However, apart from the ten rows of attack weapons at the front being pulled back by specialized personnel, the attack order was delayed. In an instant, the monsters were already close to the Cloud Peak battle formation.

The towering monsters were so close that their ferocious expressions could be seen clearly.

"Boss?!"

Little Tiger, being impulsive, was the first to speak up through the Battle Contribution Badge’s communication system.

"Wait."

Ye Zhongming's response was curt. Little Tiger, realizing the situation, wisely kept quiet. Pushing further would only reveal his lack of emotional intelligence.

Watching the approaching monsters, Ye Zhongming silently calculated the distance.

"One thousand meters!"

Xia Lei suddenly spoke up. At the same time, Ye Zhongming issued a command to Red Hair through their mental link. Red Hair, who had been idly stroking the Undead Dragonfish within the formation, let out a silent roar.

Then, the Cloud Peak warriors saw a special unit within the monster horde.

"Too tired, too tired. Ye Zhongming, you're using me as a laborer. I'm going to eat you."

The unique and piercing voice gave many a sense of familiarity.

"Shut up, or I'll kill you." Red Hair's voice floated lightly across the battlefield, silencing the noisy creature.

The Brain Child shrunk its head, hiding behind the shoulder of a massive Zombie Ape. It needed to rest; the ability it had just used had drained most of its energy.

The Brain Child, which had been missing for a long time, reappeared in the sight of Cloud Peak's members.

Shortly after Cloud Peak's first reorganization, the Brain Child disappeared. During this time, rumors spread—some said it had died, others claimed it had broken free from Cloud Peak's control, and some even insisted it had left with the Talking Lady. There were even "eyewitness" accounts of its death, some convincing, others not.

The silence from Cloud Peak’s higher-ups and Ye Zhongming seemed to confirm these speculations.

The Brain Child was truly dead, and Cloud Peak no longer had a zombie army.

If you were to ask Deacon Water whether they had included the zombie army in Cloud Peak's strength when compiling the national power rankings, she would undoubtedly say no.

In their eyes, the zombie army no longer existed.

But did it not exist?

No, it had always been there.

The process had been fraught with difficulties. The Brain Child had secretly carried out several missions for Cloud Peak that humans couldn't openly undertake. Each time, it had narrowly escaped death. With its high intelligence, the Brain Child naturally harbored resentment toward Ye Zhongming. However, it stayed since it couldn't break free from Red Hair and had no desire to leave Cloud Pyed.

Cloud Peak assigned it dangerous missions, but the rewards were substantial as long as it survived. This allowed the Brain Child, a creature with no offensive or defensive capabilities, relying solely on controlling its kind, to evolve to level eight early on.

This time, Ye Zhongming assigned the Brain Child another perilous mission—one that bordered on suicide: teleport into the monster horde and snipe them.

The Brain Child's abilities mainly included mental control, mental attacks, ability insight, and more. One ability that had significantly improved after reaching level eight was spatial teleportation.

This ability wasn't like the Secret Realm Key, which could connect two different worlds. Instead, it allowed for medium-distance teleportation within the same space, similar to a space mage, and could transport many units.

As it was now, the Brain Child and its zombie army had been hiding in the forest some distance away. When Ye Zhongming needed them, they teleported en masse into the heart of the monster horde.

The reason for this was twofold. First, Ye Zhongming wanted to catch the monsters off guard and disrupt their charge momentum.

The undead lifeforms earlier had been a good example. Ten thousand of these summoned creatures gathered together could unleash considerable combat power. Although they were destined to lose to the monsters, the monsters couldn't defeat them in just one minute without the help of flying monsters.

Even encircling so many undead creatures would take considerable time.

But the reality was that the undead creatures only held out for a minute before being overwhelmed. This was because the monsters had a speed advantage in their mass charge, making them unstoppable.

Now, with tens of thousands of zombies suddenly appearing amid the monster horde, chaos ensued. The front lines continued to charge, while the rear had to stop to deal with these unexpected enemies.

Second, no matter how loyal the Brain Child was to Red Hair or how dependent it was on Cloud Peak, it ultimately led zombies—a large number of them. In the current situation, Ye Zhongming was concerned that the monsters' or humans' blood might stimulate the zombies, leading to unforeseen consequences that could undo all their efforts.

Fortunately, the Brain Child had this spatial teleportation ability, so Ye Zhongming stationed them on the periphery.

"The positioning is just right." Seeing where the zombie army had teleported, Ye Zhongming felt relieved. After saying this, he issued another command.

A large section of the grassland ahead suddenly collapsed.

The monsters at the front immediately fell into the pit.

The distance across the pit wasn't large, only about a hundred meters, but its width was extensive. Going around it would take considerable time, making them easy targets.

The pit itself had no traps. Cloud Peak had focused on the gravel ground and hadn't bothered with this area.

However, this pit was still well thought out because it was deep.

Given that the monsters ranged from a few meters to dozens of meters in height, Cloud Peak had prepared accordingly. The pit was over a hundred meters deep. Without modern tools, only evolved could have completed such a task quickly.

When the monsters fell into the pit, the height wasn't enough to kill them, but their own kind crushed many.

Li Qiang's shooting squad arrived at the edge of the pit. Each member threw a glass bottle of unknown contents into the pit. Though each bottle only held about two liters, over two thousand bottles added significantly.

The glass bottles were fragile, shattering upon impact with the struggling monsters. The liquid inside spilled out, coating the monsters but initially causing no visible effect.

However, thick green smoke began to rise as the liquid flowed downward and touched the monsters' wounds and blood. The monsters howled in pain, their bodies corroding.

This was another of Candy's creations— Liquid Poison! This poison wasn't inherently liquid but required contact with liquids to activate.

Moreover, this poison had contagious properties. When it came into contact with a liquid, it released its toxicity, turning the liquid into a new poison.

Although the toxicity would gradually weaken, the process was slow.

The monsters in the pit already had some wounds, and the fall caused further injuries and bleeding, providing the Liquid Poison with ample opportunity to take effect. The already chaotic monsters in the pit completely broke down.

Li Qiang and his squad stood at the pit's edge, shooting the monsters below and easily reaping lives.

After eliminating the upper layer, the shooting squad shifted their focus to the monsters within range on the other side of the pit.
