Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1460: Destiny Cannot Be Defied

After hearing Zhang Yi's plan, Babu was scared pale as death.

He hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Don't! Don't kill me, I'm actually very obedient, I can follow you from now on! Big brother, give me a chance!"

Zhang Yi shook his head. "Forget it, I'm not that close to you. You'd better just go die!"

Then, ignoring Babu's miserable wails, he personally gave him a shot to shut him up.

To ensure nothing went wrong in the middle, Zhang Yi called Uncle Yu over to help keep watch and assist Zhou Ke'er in completing the surgery.

Less than half a day later, Zhou Ke'er brought the living dead—who was now nothing but a mere shell of a body—before him.

Babu was dead, but his body was still alive. At this moment, he had become a true and genuine vegetable.

Zhou Ke'er smiled at Zhang Yi and said, "We just need to control his brain nerves through electric currents, and his body can still react like a normal person. The downside is that he needs to defecate, but that can also be solved by injecting nutrient fluids."

Although his brain was already dead, he still couldn't be stored in the alternate space. Zhang Yi had vaguely figured out a bit of the rule behind this judgment.

The factor determining whether something could be actively stored probably had something to do with supernatural powers, or human body energy.

After that, there was another very important matter that needed to be handled.

Everyone knew that Zhang Yi had obtained multiple portions of God's Essence from the Nash Kingdom.

Although no one said it out loud, everyone wanted to get it.

After all, the power akin to that of a god obtained upon advancing to Epsilon-class had long since deeply captivated them!

But not a single person spoke up first. Everyone understood in their hearts that Zhang Yi knew who was most suitable to receive it.

Based on the current situation, without a doubt, Liang Yue, as the second combat powerhouse under Zhang Yi's command, was the most qualified to receive the God's Essence.

And that was indeed what Zhang Yi thought.

After pondering for a long time, he ultimately chose Liang Yue between her and Lu Keran.

Lu Keran's current ability index hadn't even reached 9,900 points yet. Even if he gave her the God's Essence, it would still be a very long time before she slowly broke through.

Liang Yue was different. She was currently in a state of her limit, coupled with her already extremely high level of development.

As long as she was given an opportunity, her speed in breaking through to Epsilon-class would be extremely fast.

This way, before long, Zhang Yi's personal team would have three Epsilon-class Transcendents!

This was an absolutely outrageous number. If it got out, probably no one in the entire world wouldn't be green with envy.

Although for now, quantitative change couldn't trigger qualitative change—the newly advanced Huahua plus the quasi-Epsilon-class Liang Yue still couldn't compare to a single White Chariot with 18,000+ in strength.

But the most critical thing was the future!

As long as they lived, as long as they kept fighting, they could keep getting stronger!

As for the remaining third, he didn't waste it either. He gave it to Lu Keran.

The two of them received the God's Essence from Zhang Yi, their eyes brimming with excitement.

Liang Yue didn't say much; she simply left with a determined gaze to absorb the energy of the God's Essence and quickly break through the limitations of the genetic lock.

Lu Keran, on the other hand, was too excited and burst into tears, unable to speak clearly.

"Brother, this thing is too precious! I... I'm so afraid I don't deserve it."

Zhang Yi said to Lu Keran, "Although you haven't directly participated in battles, none of us can do without you. The weapons you make, the armor you forge, the smart devices you develop—they've all been a tremendous help to us along the way."

"So everyone hopes you can become even stronger. This benefits all of us."

Lu Keran clenched the God's Essence Shard in her hand and nodded firmly at Zhang Yi.

"Brother, I will definitely not let you down!"

Watching the backs of the girl and the woman as they left, Zhang Yi thought of something. But after mulling it over briefly, he ultimately didn't say it out loud.

"Maybe not everyone has the same situation as me."

He turned around, looking at the heavy snow still falling outside the window, and subconsciously reached up to rub his temples vigorously.

He had grown stronger. After advancing to Black Chariot, Lie's Essence power was also being slowly absorbed by him.

According to his calculations, once he completely absorbed all of Lie's power, his ability index would probably reach 22,000 points.

This was a number that excited him immensely.

But accompanying this was the increasingly clear murmuring in his dreams.

He was slowly beginning to accept this bizarre situation. He couldn't understand the voice in his sleep, but he found it extraordinarily intimate. It was as if a close relative was gently telling ancient stories in his ear.

...

【Shengjing】.

This was an extremely dark place. It seemed to be a cold and dry cave, with no wind, but from time to time, a low, rumbling breath could be heard coming from the depths, like rolling thunder.

Lights suddenly flickered on in the distance, and two figures slowly walked toward this direction.

In the darkness, a giant, sharp claw slowly retracted. With just that momentary flash, one could feel the cold and solid texture of black iron.

The monster opened its eyes, revealing a pair of blood-red pupils. Surprisingly, there wasn't much murderous intent in them, but rather a hint of boredom, as if it was impatient with the arrivals.

The two people slowly approached, but the light seemed unable to penetrate the darkness enveloping the monster, blocked by some kind of barrier, as if it didn't want to be spied upon.

The two stood there, a man and a woman, one tall and one short.

The man held a lantern in his hand, standing to the side. The woman, draped in a black cloak, looked into the darkness and spoke slowly.

"The signs from underground are becoming more and more apparent. How much time do we have left?"

The monster looked at her lazily. After a while, it slowly spoke, and surprisingly, it was in human language.

"There isn't much time left. This is a cycle. It will soon be the turn of your generation."

The woman furrowed her brow and continued to press relentlessly, "Is there no possibility of avoiding it?"

A sneer escaped from the monster's mouth.

"For endless ages, how many generations of 'humans' have tried to do this? But in the end, without exception, they all failed."

"You must remember that the enemy you are about to face is an existence beyond imagination."

"You don't even have the qualifications to see his face, so how can you talk about resisting him?"

This time, the woman was silent for a long time. Although she had long guessed this answer in her heart, she still refused to accept this cruel reality.

She suddenly lifted her head, staring straight into the darkness.

"Even the most powerful 'God' among your race has never seen him?"

"The one you speak of... Kagayo!"

...
