Apocalypse Gacha Chapter 197- Potion's use

Ye Zhongming took out so many crystals before he killed Uncle Da and Tian Jia. A part of it was because he was acting.

This made the rest of them think that he was invincible.

To those few one-star evolved, Ye Zhongming was indeed invincible.

He needed to create a strong impression on Candy; if not, even if she joined his team, she would have other thoughts.

After all, jobs like Alchemists, Potion Makers, etc., crafting jobs used up many resources. People without strength and riches couldn’t nurture such a person. Candy didn’t understand now, but she would find out.

Of course, the effect was naturally great.

But when they saw him press a palm on the ground and the grass grew, everyone, including Candy, was stunned.

Although they had seen many magical things in the apocalypse, like Candy’s alchemist job, like the job directly giving her that green bottle.

But these were things in the realm of science. Alchemists grasped chemistry that humans understood.

But making plants grow instantly was something only found in legends, which was enough to shock them. Ye Zhongming was also a really strong two star evolved with many tricks on his sleeve.

Moreover, they realized something. He was still injured…

If he was healed, how strong would he be?

Those plants grew by several centimeters, and his forehead started to sweat.

Plants in the dungeon were different from that on Earth. Nurture or activate needs more mental energy. This grass patch wasn’t small. Just these alone consumed all the mental energy that he had saved up.

These weren’t enough. He relied on the green necklace’s Basic Meditation Exchange skill to absorb level one crystals to recover some mental energy.

Fortunately, he had enough level-one crystals. After consuming a few thousand, he fully recovered and used the Gardener skill.

Familiarity+1, familiarity +1…

He consumed mental energy to use Nurture, and his skill familiarity grew quickly. His Nurture skill reached max familiarity when this grass grew to a decent height. If the other skill reached 100, he could use the upgrade scroll to get to Intermediate Gardener. Then both skills would reach intermediate grade too.

Of course, Ye Zhongming had an upgrade scroll that he got from the Monster Baby, but he was not prepared to use it on this job.

He walked out of the grass patch, and there was the sound of hooves. The few of them retreated to the hill on the side and hid. Tang Tian also managed to get out. He saw Candy’s signal and hid.

It wasn’t too hard to draw them here. As long as you stepped into the valley, you invaded their territory. Although their attack wasn’t high, level two monsters would go mad, and their tramples and knocks would be enough to kill an invader.

Tang Tian was not stupid. He saw the group move, and he fled. He barely rushed back when those Cloud Hooves were staring at him.

Hundreds of them charged out of the valley, and it looked majestic. These beasts that were more muscular than horses ran together; those scenes pumped up the few hiding on the hill.

These scenes could only be recreated using special effects during peacetime.

The Cloud Hooves were originally chasing the invader. They even noticed his tracks, but their speed slowed down. A scent in the sky attracted them.

A moment later, some Cloud Hooves found the source of the smell. They scattered and ran over, lowering their heads to chew the grass.

More and more of them found this place. They rushed over to taste the delicious food.

Hundreds of them that were chasing the enemy ended up having a feast. They wolfed down the food and even fought one another because of it.

“Oh my god, what is the juice that you gave me? Why do they love to eat it?”

Candy didn’t believe her potion caused those beasts to love the grass.

Ye Zhongming didn’t say a word and didn’t answer her question.

The recipe wasn’t a secret in his last life. One reason was that it was simple, and the second reason was that its use wasn’t common, so there was no need to keep it a secret.

Although it was simple, the materials mostly came from level three wheels. Survivors would only get it a year or two after the apocalypse started. It started to spread around five years later.

At that time, mutated monsters were already at a high level, so the potion was not as effective against them. As such, its value didn’t increase, and one would occasionally use it.

But Ye Zhongming was different; this was the best time to use these potions.

Indeed, this needed the right conditions, like an Alchemist. If not, even if you knew the recipe, it was useless. Also, you needed a gardener; if not, they wouldn’t be able to use the potion that had to be consumed through plants. That might need months to grow the plants, and then, who would know whether such a thing would be useful?

So in the previous life, this useless potion was being used by him now.

As for its use…

The grass patch wasn’t small, but it wasn’t much to a few hundred of them. In just a while, they were eaten up. The Cloud Hooves walked around and didn’t find another grass patch. They strolled for a time and found other things to it. Then they retreated into the valley.

“Is it not poison?”

Maybe it was because he evolved, and Tang Tian started to talk more. He saw those Cloud Hooves still jumping around after eating the grass and asked Ye Zhongming what was happening. He thought it was poison, but if not, then weren’t they feeding them for no reason?

Ye Zhongming still didn’t explain. He told them to shift their formation to the hill by the valley.

At that place, Ye Zhongming instructed them to cook. He took out the red-eye deer meat he had previously barbecued and some food the team had stored up, and they started to cook.

But the others didn’t care much about the food; they looked at those Cloud Hooves playing or resting.

“One more hour. Eat, eat, and then you will have the energy to work.”

Ye Zhongming said calmly; he seemed like he was filled with confidence.

The few of them didn’t dare to say anything more. They tried to eat more when they thought about having to do things in a while.

Eating level two monster meat these days increased their body quality. This alone made those people grateful to Ye Zhongming.

After eating, they stared at the Cloud Hooves and counted the time.

After 50 minutes, there was some commotion.

Ye Zhongming, who closed his eyes to rest, opened them and looked toward the sounds.

A male Cloud Hoof pressed onto another Cloud Hoof, and they started to mate.

Success!

Ye Zhongming was delighted and knew that the juice was working.

At first, it was just individuals, but this quickly started to spread. In just half an hour, the entire valley became a mating ground.

Candy and the others were stunned.

Fallen Red Juice, this was its use?

The Cloud Hooves went mad. Whether male or female, their eyes were red and mated around. A stench spread out such that people far away could smell it.

This situation was only the main situation. Some fought one another as they fought for mates. Their giant bodies smashed into one another, biting and kicking each other. Many of them lost their minds and either got injured or died in the fights.

The entire valley was in chaos.

“This… This…” One of them was baffled. He had never seen someone use such a method. These level two mutated lifeforms that he felt were like a god of death were being played by a human. This changed his view of the apocalypse.

“Should we kill them now?”

Tang Tian looked at a few dozen of them die and was tempted.

“Wait, we still have to wait for some time.”

Ye Zhongming wasn’t anxious. The Cloud Hooves were in chaos now, so if you go down, won’t you die? These fellows would trample you into meat paste.

Ye Zhongming looked at what was happening at first but quickly lost interest. He closed his eyes. The others were still very interested and even discussed it.

Such a situation lasted for four hours before calming down. The valley was in a mess.

Ye Zhongming stood up and held Moon Edge in his hands. He looked at the Cloud Hooves. He knew that this was the time for the first harvest.
