“A famous French author once said. He said that when a chance comes, it is like lightning; you don’t have time to think.”
Ye Zhongming picked up an item. He didn’t place it into the gate and just looked at Death King Tree and Talking Lady.
“I know your worries and also know that both of you want freedom. That is the basis of life.”
“But…”
Ye Zhongming’s voice became firm and hurried.
“Everything has a price in this world. If you want to absorb energy to evolve, you have to battle against strong enemies. Yangos is stronger. It went from level seven to level eight. It is happy, and all of you envy it. But why? Because it is my battle pet. It is one with me, so it doesn’t need to take any risk. I have taken his risk for him.”
These words stopped in their years. Although their expressions didn’t change, they were emotional.
They didn’t want to lose their freedom. To get stronger, they had to fight and face dangers to evolve.
During this process, they would fight and get injured. There was also a chance that they would die at any moment.
Although they didn’t make a final choice, Ye Zhongming’s words made sense.“You can consider it, and I can wait for both of you for a while.” Ye Zhongming smiled and played around with the items while waiting for them to reply.
He looked calm, but he wasn’t sure if the two would agree.
Although the Death King Tree had a good relationship with Cloud Peak and had a chance of agreeing, it didn’t mean that it would be willing to serve Cloud Peak forever. No matter how nice Ye Zhongming made it sound, those words relied on the Gate of Blessing. If they became his battle pet, would they not need to fight?
Of course not. They would still need to fight and would even face more dangers.
What they would get would be the upfront benefits.
Talking Lady was more so. Death King Tree and her were different. She was a mental energy type of lifeform and could control zombies. More importantly, she also had a helper of the same level: that black cat. She had a big reason for wanting freedom.
Because of the black cat, the Talking Lady’s evolution was much tougher. She needed two times more energy to do so. Similarly, her combat strength was pretty much twice stronger as those of the same level.
Did she like what Ye Zhongming suggested? Of course! But she would weigh the pros and cons.
Seeing the two level-eight lifeforms hesitate and then calm down, Ye Zhongming’s heart sank.
He knew that his plan failed. These two lifeforms at the peak of the food chain resisted the temptation and decided to be free.
Ye Zhongming shrugged.
This was the best chance to make the two lifeforms join Cloud Peak. Unfortunately, while having high intellect, they could think for themselves. They chose another path.
“Hey, Ye, don’t be like that. Our relationship isn’t something a scroll can show. We are friends. En, if you are willing to mate with me, I can still consider this problem.”
“You should turn into a human first.” Liang Chuyin rolled her eyes. She was unhappy with the Death King Tree, wanting to seduce Ye Zhongming.
“I… Just want to ask what happened to Red Hair.”
Talking Lady and Ye Zhongming’s relationship wasn’t as good as with Death King Tree, so she had a bigger reason to reject.
Ye Zhongming knew why Talking Lady found Red Hair. He nodded and didn’t say anything.
Since the attempt didn’t work, Ye Zhongming gave up. It was decent that he still planted a seed in their hearts.
He tossed the items into the gate.
“Time to wish, judging the sacrifice…”
“Sacrifice, Hell Nether Soul, level, good, will you sacrifice?”
“Sacrifice, Shocking Skeleton, level, good, will you sacrifice?”
“Sacrifice, Lazy Stone, level, good, will you sacrifice?”
…………
…………
Ye Zhongming tossed over 30 good items in.
Logically speaking, he shouldn’t do that. If the ability that appeared weren’t good, things would go to waste.
But he naturally wouldn’t make such a mistake. He took off all the equipment he didn’t want to upgrade. All that remained were things he liked.
Like the star Battle Armor, Nature Staff, Treasure Nurturing Gourd, Demon Nurturing Hive, etc.
When he felt it was enough, he stopped and upgraded.
“Start to upgrade Explosive Mechanic!”
It was actually that small thing?
Ye Zhongming obtained it early. When his level was slightly low, this thing made up for his lack of combat strength. Even when he entered the Secret Realm, the machine that unlocked four states terrified King Neal and protected Ye Zhongming, who wasn’t strong then.
But as his level increased and his weapons got better, his fellow wasn’t used.
But Ye Zhongming didn’t want to give up on it as its potential was huge. It was only weak now. There were four higher levels. If he got the blueprint, he could increase its strength. At that time, this thing would return as a killing weapon.
He kept it in his space, so naturally, he was ready to upgrade it.
“Starting to upgrade weak grade Explosive Mechanic, upgrade… Success, level increase by 15.”
“Energy remains, continue to upgrade… Success, level increase by 15.”
“Energy remains, continue to upgrade… Success, level increase by 15.”
……
Ye Zhongming didn’t know what the level was. It should be a way to judge the Explosive Mechanic. When he listened to thee notifications, he was excited.
But a sudden notification made him helpless.
“Energy remains, continue to upgrade… Upgrade fail, energy not enough. Continue to add sacrifices.”
Ye Zhongming could only continue. He was careful this time, placing one by one and controlling the energy range to avoid any wastage.
Finally, it succeeded.
“Energy remains, continue to upgrade… Upgrade success, upgraded to ordinary grade Explosive Mechanic!”
