Chapter 554: Ocean King Mark

Ye Zhongming understood what happened from Xia Bai’s description.

In his impression, after humans go through the golden light, they should gain a second evolution like those mutated lifeforms.

The Copper Ink Ocean Sunflower lying in the test tube proved the strength of a second evolution.

Ye Zhongming was looking forward to it.

Once Xia Bai and he evolved a second time, their overall strength would increase. Xia Bai would even get eight-star evolved strength because of it.

Eight stars was a really strong grade, even ten years into the apocalypse.

Ye Zhongming stood under the golden light with such anticipation, but the truth disappointed him.

He even thought that humans couldn’t get stronger from the golden light.

But Xia Bai’s situation told him the golden light was still useful.

Typically speaking, humans couldn’t use lower-level evolution potions as they were a waste and ineffective.

Ye Zhongming was an exception. He could inject potions to increase his strength. So did the other warriors who had grasped the secret realm techniques.

Of course, there was a limit. For Ye Zhongming, potions of the first two levels were useless.

Xia Bai’s changes were similar to Ye Zhongming and Ah Yang's, but there was some slight difference as she obtained the Ocean King Mark.

The apocalypse was just so miraculous. Survivors under mysterious control chose to forget about it as they obtained strength.

When the golden light shone on Xia Bai, she received the Ocean King mental mark and obtained the right to gain nine types of Ocean King abilities.

Right, not a second evolution or a direct increase in strength, but she obtained the mark’s ability. The key to activating the abilities was the evolution potions.

This was a strength increase but different from Ye Zhongming’s impression; this increase only gave the person abilities.

Killing an ocean beast or having an ally die couldn’t cause much effect. In these 30 hours, death became the only rhythm around them.

If not for them knowing that they would die if the city got broken into, the humans wouldn’t have been able to hold on. Even then, the despair each second increased, and no one knew when it would explode.

Numerous parts of the wall were broken into. Although the survivors took them back quickly, the situation wasn’t good. Even the Ying City Alliance suffered the fewest losses and was in a bad state.

They had used up the crystal grenades, and even the reserve parts of the crystal guns were damaged. The only thing that could be used were the lightning turrets. After all, demon crystals could be found everywhere. But this thing had a cooldown time. Like cannons, it would still be damaged if you used it too many times. To prevent that, Cloud Peak didn’t dare to use it too often.

Under such a situation, losses appeared in the alliance army. The ocean beast wave stopped being afraid of the killing weapons. They launched their strong attacks.

Liang Chuyin used the V1 Rocket Launcher to replace the lightning turret. She wiped the sweat off her forehead and looked towards Mo Ye, whose face turned white.

To protect the wall, Mo Ye used her job skills several times. Her mental energy had dropped below the warning line, and she was about to break down.

“Sister Mo, everyone is finding it hard to hold on.”

Liang Chuyin said.

Ying City Alliance and Cloud Peak wouldn’t be in despair if they followed other faction standards.

But Cloud Peak members knew that each Cloud Peak warrior was precious, and they spent a lot of money. Be it strength or loyalty, they were no weaker than those super factions.

Ye Zhongming demonstrated that he wouldn’t let warriors sacrifice in vain even if he wasted many resources.

If this situation continued, the two core squads here would suffer losses.

If that happened, how would they answer Ye Zhongming?

Mo Ye turned her head to look at other spots. The walls were drowned in beasts. The human defense line had to retreat, and maybe some places would be lost.

Cloud Peak didn’t have the energy to bother about that.

“Take that thing.” Mo Ye slapped the wall that was dyed in blood and made a decision.
