Apocalypse Gachapon Chapter 2189: Situation (2)

If the Star-Eye Clan had known that the Huo'er Star people had arrived at the foot of the Overlapping Water Dead Zone within two days, they would certainly have been very surprised.

Because they lacked such capabilities.

But that did not mean the Su Clan lacked such means. At the foot of the Black Book Absolute Peak, Huozhi and the one hundred and twenty formation masters behind him had also arrived here.

"Elder, once we begin, we will have no other choice ever again."

A formation master looked at Elder Huozhi, who was gazing up at the absolute peak above, and said.

They regarded Huozhi as their idol; that was true. They all wanted to become people like Huozhi; that was true as well. Because of this, they had sided with the clan leader, which was also true.

But that did not mean they had no thoughts of their own, nor did it mean they could view Jie Su from the same height as the clan leader and Huozhi.

Yaohan Su and Huozhi regarded Jie Su as their successor, as the hope of the future Su Clan. But many people lacked such foresight.

What they saw in Jie Su was merely a promising newcomer. There were many such people in the Su Clan, and quite a few among the direct lineage as well. In their view, it was not worth taking such a great risk for someone who was not unique.

The Su Clan did not currently have such strength.

Even now, as Huozhi said, only by eliminating the Huo'er Star people here could they possibly avoid implicating the clan. But how could that be... impossible!

Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of warriors here, just that peak expert alone was beyond their ability to deal with.

No, Elder Huozhi said that there was a way to deal with it, a formation they had never heard of before. Each person only held one formation diagram, and it was incomplete.

To be honest, they did not really believe it.

In the history of the Su Clan, there had never been any formation with such a vast range, not even the one at Su City!

They had no confidence.

But as members of the Su Clan, as followers of the clan leader and Huozhi, they still chose to come here. They would express differing opinions but obey Huozhi's orders.

Huozhi had been silent. The mountain wind blew against the light armor on these one hundred and twenty outstanding formation masters, making a faint sound.

"The cosmic races are about to enter an era of chaos."

Huozhi's words reached everyone's ears, making them all focus on his back.

"Some changes have already occurred in this universe. The nutrient wave is just one of them, and not even the one with the greatest impact."

The others were somewhat moved, but none asked questions.

"For so many years, although we have been constantly migrating, facing the Slave Race without any victory, as in many, many years ago, at the same time, there have been no major losses either. Every large clan and super-large clan has been preparing."

"What we have lived through are many relatively peaceful years."

"As for the Slave Race, at some point, everyone has become accustomed to them. At some point, there is no longer any fear. It is not that people are no longer afraid, but that they have forgotten, or rather, become habits."

The emotion in Huozhi's tone was very complex.

"When external pressure is no longer great enough, many races develop new ideas. Even if the so-called insufficient pressure is merely a habituation to and neglect of pressure, rather than the disappearance of pressure."

Huozhi turned around and looked at the one hundred and twenty outstanding formation masters behind him.

"You are the backbone of the clan leader's lineage. There are some things that can be told to you without harm."

"The other super-large clans now, especially the leader races of the two camps, have amassed enough strength. Perhaps within a few years, they will change the power structure of all the cosmic races. There is no evidence for this, but I, the clan leader, and some others firmly believe it. More people do not believe it, including the majority of our Su Clan."

"We cannot convince those who do not trust us, nor can we wake those who pretend to be asleep. Then we have no choice but to act on our own."

"You do not understand why I am so persistent in saving Jie Su. It is because he is the hope of our Su Clan."

"Where do you think our clan leader ranks in solo strength among all the cosmic races? Where do I rank? With the recently published formation, the clan leader's ranking may rise, but certainly he will not enter the top five, nor is it likely he will enter the top ten, because there are too many old monsters."

"But the clan leader is already our number one expert."

"Among the top one hundred experts, our Su Clan has only a few people. If any situation arises, our ability to withstand risk is too weak. Su City is indeed the strongest city, never to fall. But if we are left with only one city at that time, how is that different from extinction?"

"As for Jie Su, his talent and his mind destined him to become the leader most suited for the Su Clan. Only under his leadership can the Su Clan move toward brightness and ensure the continuation of the race in the future chaotic era."

"To lose him is to lose the hope of the race."

"You may think I am exaggerating, you may find it unbelievable. That is fine. You can maintain this mindset, but please follow me, follow the clan leader, and see whether what we have foreseen will become reality."

Huozhi swept his gaze around, then slowly and firmly said, "I repeat again: the goal this time is to enclose all the Huo'er Star people within our formation. The setup time is 5 days. Five days from now... we attack Black Book Absolute Peak!"

………………

"It feels so good to have armor." White Robe looked at the body armor on him and praised it thus.

Ye Zhongming had completed repairs to everyone's equipment. He and Jie Su had basically restored their full sets to Raini Grade, while White Robe was at Red Condensation Grade.

There was no helping it. White Robe's equipment had all turned to powder when killing Zi Mu, and there was no way to repair it.

The reverse decomposition of other equipment to repair these pieces cost a total of 161 points.

Among these, the White Dragon Horse contributed 45 points, White Robe contributed 15 points, and Ye Zhongming contributed the remaining 101 points. Adding the 150 points spent earlier to familiarize himself with reverse decomposition, the reward points Ye Zhongming had put out came to exactly 251.

Even so, he still had 268 points left, only lower than Jie Su's 417 points.

Because they had exchanged enough 'Full Recovery Time-Release Potions' last time, there was no need to exchange for more this time. After some discussion, the White Dragon Horse exchanged for one piece of equipment, a dragon armor, costing 35 points, leaving the White Dragon Horse with only 6 points.

White Robe had originally had 141 points. He also complete the rest of his equipment, all of it Red Condensation Grade, of course, spending a full 120 points, leaving 21 points as backup.

In his words, this was an investment. Although all of it would certainly be destroyed after the next trial, with Ye Zhongming's repair ability, it would basically cost less than 30 points to repair it all.

After completing all their selections, the three people and one dragon entered the second round of the second stage of trials.
