Gao Yi, Zhao Xiangxue, and the others relaxed when Ye Zhongming returned.
When Ye Zhongming wasn’t by their side, as the two higher-ups of Chameleon, they were used to making decisions. They were used to being calm and facing life and death.
Before their subordinates, they were cold and cruel. They were fighting machines with no fear. They were monsters produced by the apocalypse.
They used seemingly impossible operations and assassintations to solidify their position in Cloud Peak.
Those strong battle squads had to place them on equal footing.
Before this, Gao Yi and Zhao Xiangxue even felt that this would be their state forever.
When it was late at night, they would think about many things- maybe they could become a symbol of Cloud Peak... To surpass the guy at the peak.
But after being with Ye Zhongming, when the gap was enough to fill them with despair, those thoughts were crushed, and there were no traces of them.
Thus, the coldness turned into respect, worship, and reliance.
The two of them knew that when this ended, they would revert to their roles. But now, they were used to following this guy and standing behind him. They didn’t need to think about anything; they just had to follow instructions.
“No Man’s Zone attacked, but it wasn’t intense, and then they retreated. The monster didn’t chase; it seems like it has a good temper.”
Zhao Xiangxue reported and gave her guess, “I think they are testing their firepower to prepare for the future.”
Ye Zhongming nodded and agreed.
Since Wen Huan was here and didn’t want to trade with Cloud Peak, they would fight the 50/50. Probing their strength would give them a more accurate grasp of the final hit.
This alone showed that although No Man’s Zone rose in the recent year, they had a mature fighting system.
She knew Ye Zhongming had a goal that was directly related to them.
Although Wen Huan couldn’t speak in that form and also had to maintain less movement to reduce the consumption of his body, he still felt pressure. That fellow had the best equipment in the country. Even if he didn’t have many people, he still led the sixth-strongest faction. What did he head out to do?
No Man’s Zone wanted to attack after probing, but Ye Zhongming’s return stopped everything.
No Man’s Zone decided to wait and watch. Fortunately, Wen Huan’s plants were resting, and the energy consumption was low. He was able to maintain the transformation state for some time.
Then, they saw the ‘answer’ that they wanted.
Ye Zhongming crafted some equipment. While resting, he would use some potions. Many materials and blueprints appeared around him. Some people would chat with him and then take a potion and those crafted items.
With No Man’s Zone’s familiarity with potions, they knew that they were recovery potions.
Ye Zhongming went out to purchase materials and potions.
This could explain why he left. He knew that No Man’s Zone wouldn’t dare attack, so he took the chance to purchase these things. He wanted his team to recover, so he crafted equipment to make them stronger.
That was a good and effective idea.
No Man’s Zone did consider it, but they didn’t have a good smith who could craft equipment quickly.
Wen Huan and his sister looked at each other and relaxed.
If Ye Zhongming thought this could give him the advantage, he was wrong.
Wen Huan moved. He decided to let the Cloud Peak boss see No Man’s Zone’s strength. Who knew if the young guy would just back out in despair after seeing it?
