Apocalypse: Infinite Evolution Starts from Attribute Allocation

The next day, Wang Ye’s group continued to sweep westward along the lakeside.

The two ace rescue teams split up to ensure the largest search area and their own safety.

No matter which team was attacked, the other team could arrive at the fastest speed.

[Killed level 7 tree monster.]

[Potential Points: 925—1025.]

Light flashed before his eyes.

Wang Ye’s consciousness immediately fell to the “+”.

1000 potential points were consumed.

[Thirty-six Forms of the Advanced Saber Techniques, mastery — perfection.]

Chi!

Wang Ye waved his saber.

It was a natural feeling. He knew all the saber techniques by heart, as if they were carved into his bones and had become a part of his body.

With this, he could achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating other high-level saber techniques.

“You have a solid foundation in your saber techniques.” Song Shirui walked to his side and glanced at him. “Very few people place so much importance on the basics.”

“Well, I’m an honest person, so I’m used to playing it safe,” Wang Ye said seriously.

“But you’re still too weak.” Song Shirui nodded.

Heh. He had more energy than anyone else.

“I’ll let you know how powerful I am someday.” Wang Ye raised his biceps.

Song Shirui glanced at him and patted her bulging biceps. “Now?”

“We have to carry out the mission now. Captain, how can you not separate your work from your personal life?” Wang Ye said seriously.

“Fine then.” Song Shirui revealed a disappointed expression and looked at the pale red lake. “We’ve searched almost half of the area, but we haven’t seen a single demonic human. Could it be…”

Seeing Wang Ye’s expression, Song Shirui’s heart skipped a beat. She immediately said, “I believe you! I believe you!”

“Captain Zhao didn’t find anything either,” Wang Ye said. “Don’t be anxious. We’re looking for Stone Ocean’s encampment now. If it was that easy to find them, they would have been exposed long ago. The purpose of the search is to find more clues and further narrow down the area. If I was sure that Stone Ocean is within this small 100 km area, 1 would have gathered all the powerhouses from the Future Center and thoroughly searched the place to wipe out Stone Ocean.”

Song Shirui replied with an “oh”. She did not understand at all. “What should we do now?”

“Let’s search the entire target area first.” Wang Ye looked at the time. “If everything goes well, we should be able to complete it by tomorrow afternoon. We’ll meet up with Captain Zhao to decide on the next step then.”

“Alright, I’ll listen to you!” Song Shirui patted her chest.

It was a calm day.

The ones who suffered were the monsters by Li Lake. They were ruthlessly wiped out.

At night, the two ace rescue teams took turns to guard. This way, they could maintain their condition while increasing their energy.

If Stone Ocean wanted to launch a sneak attack, it would most likely happen at night.

“Demonic Awakening has appeared again?” Wang Ye browsed through the forum and was slightly surprised.

It had not been long since Demonic Awakening had been defeated in the last round. They had lost one of their five true demons, True Demon Amber, while True Demon Vajra had been heavily injured. True Demon Yinren had also been stabbed by Xia Wuguang after escaping. Logically speaking, Demonic Awakening should be playing it safe and recovering now.

“Aren’t they just bullying us, thinking that we have no powerhouses?!” Song Shirui ate her clay pot rice while saying indignantly. “When I break through and become a perfection Evolver, I’ll hammer them to death!”

He thought she was going to say that she would hammer them to death now.

“Where did you get the food?” Wang Ye glanced at her.

“Old Huo gave it to me.” Song Shirui pointed at Huo Zhenshi, who was smiling and waving in the distance.

“Oh.” Wang Ye very naturally took the clay pot rice from Song Shirui’s hands. “The spoon.”

Song Shirui didn’t feel that anything was wrong and simply handed the spoon to Wang Ye. “It’s very dry. Do you want some water?”

“Sure,” Wang Ye said as he ate. “Help me twist the lid.”

“Alright.”

Huo Zhenshi’s face turned green again.

“It’s not what you think. The demonic humans are selfish by nature. The three super demonic human organizations want to annex each other all the time.” Wang Ye patiently explained to her. “Now, Demonic Awakening only has four true demons left, and two of them are injured. They’re no stronger than the Evil Demon Cult and the Salvation Group.”

“Attacking Huaxia now will easily put Demonic Awakening in a situation where they’ll be attacked from both sides. Even if they win in the end, the Evil Demon Cult and the Salvation Group won’t just watch them grow. They’ll definitely fight for Demonic Awakening’s original territory. As for if they lose… There’s no need to explain further.”

“Then why?” Song Shirui took the water from Wang Ye and gulped down a few mouthfuls with curiosity written all over her face.

“There are three possibilities,” Wang Ye said. “First, Demonic Awakening has produced a new true demon, or they have grasped a method to break through to become a true demon, so they have great confidence in their strength. They’re thus not afraid of Evil Demon Cult and the Salvation Group.”

“Second, they are cooperating with the Evil Demon Cult and the Salvation Group. For example, they have given away some benefits, formed an alliance with any of the other two, or all three super demonic human organizations may even launch a joint attack. It’s all possible.”

“Third, benefits against risks. Maybe, Huaxia has something that Demonic Awakening wants very much, so they took the risk. Or perhaps some kind of power is driving Demonic Awakening and forcing them to do so, such as the situation, the external environment, internal disputes, and other unknown factors.”

“Uh… Why are you looking at me like that?”

Wang Ye turned his head and saw Song Shirui sitting on a rock while holding her chin in her hand and staring at him with her beautiful eyes.

“I think you’re amazing. You can analyze so much from a single piece of information,” Song Shirui said in admiration. “I can’t do the same. 1 feel sleepy when I use my brain.”

“You are also amazing. You are born with divine strength and have cultivated the Golden Rose Evolution Technique to the extreme. It’s just that you used your wisdom on combat strength.” Wang Ye praised.

Is that so?” Song Shirui’s eyes lit up, and she said happily. “I don’t think I’m stupid either. Now that you mention it, I understand. So my wisdom is all used in combat!”

Of course. You’ve always been very smart in my eyes.” Wang Ye laughed.

“Yes, yes!” Song Shirui nodded and smiled. “Talking to you makes me so happy, Xiao Ye. They always say that I’m stupid.”

“Who? Brother Xia and Brother Bao? The pot calling the kettle black?”

“What do you mean?”

“It means they are much dumber than you.”

“Yes, yes, yes!”

On the third day, at the lakeside.

Boom!

Song Shirui’s domineering hammer smashed the body of a powerful hell-level monster.

Scales flew in all directions, and the monster’s skin split open. Half of its body directly soared into the air, revealing its belly.

Chi!

Wang Ye cleanly delivered the last stab.

[Killed level 9 crocodile monster.]

[Potential Points: 2790—3590.)

The monster had been two levels higher than him, so he earned 800 potential points!

Wang Ye smiled at Song Shirui and opened his interface.

[Do you wish to spend 3000 potential points to limit break the Thirty-six Forms of the Advanced Saber Techniques?]

[Yes!]

Wang Ye instantly entered the space of consciousness and practiced the Thirty-six Forms of the Advanced Saber Techniques day and night.

The process was accelerated by ten million times as he familiarized himself with the basic saber technique over and over again, turning each move into his comprehension… Until he broke through and created a brand new saber move that belonged to him!

Limit-breaking Skill: All Around!

The pinnacle of basic saber techniques!

Wang Ye’s eyes lit up as he quickly used the MAX Moon Blade.

The saber light was like a net that appeared around him, airtight and flawless.

The squares and circles formed a defense, while the triangles formed attacks. With defense and attack in one move, it was as stable as a rock.

A great killing weapon on the battlefield!

The benefit of putting importance on his basic techniques was perfectly displayed!

Not only did it further strengthen his overall defense, but it also raised his group combat ability to a higher level.

“Good saber technique.” Song Shirui was full of praise.

“I think so too.” Wang Ye was very satisfied.

The new limit break skill was the same as the Comprehensive Saber Technique and the Triangle Saber Technique such that it could be used in many ways and could be used in conjunction with other sword moves!

“It’s just that it’s too weak,” Song Shirui said regretfully.

Wang Ye was speechless.

Search complete!

Although he didn’t find any clues, Wang Ye himself had gained a lot – a huge number of potential points.

After returning to the Evolution Camp’s headquarters, Wang Ye dealt with the materials of the hell-level monsters. Although he didn’t bring back much, the unit price was not bad. He estimated that he could earn tens of millions.

The efficiency of both groups was about the same.

At around four o’clock in the afternoon, the East Camp and the North Camp completed their search in the designated area and returned to the headquarters of the Evolution Camp as well.

The four ace rescue teams gathered again to exchange clues and information.

“What do you guys think?” Wang Ye looked at the four captains.

“Is it possible that they’re somewhere further away from Li Lake?” Zhao Chi looked at the map and gestured with his hand. “We can continue searching and widen the area.”

“The possibility is not high. Li Lake is safe enough for Stone Ocean,” Wang Ye said. “There’s no need for them to move the encampment too far away. It’ll cause unnecessary trouble and waste their time.”

“But we’ve already searched once, and we didn’t find anything.” Chen Zhicong shook his head.

“I still think that… They may be by the Blood Sea,” Huo Zhenshi said.

“Wang Ye said that they’re at Li Lake, so they must be!” Song Shirui glared at Huo Zhenshi. “Why do you have so many things to say? If you don’t believe him, go and investigate yourself!”

“…It’s only a small opinion.” Huo Zhenshi shrunk his neck and did not dare to look at Song Shirui.

“You’re so wishy-washy.” Song Shirui snorted coldly.

Wang Ye re-examined the map.

After a long time.

“My judgment remains unchanged. I still think Stone Ocean is at Li Lake.” Wang Ye’s eyes were bright. “But they are well hidden and are very careful. They haven’t given themselves away. I didn’t see a single hell-level monster that seemed to have been sucked dry by Li Lake.”

“I agree with Wang Ye,” Zhao Chi said. “With Aice, Stone Ocean isn’t that easy to deal with. The operation has just begun, and Stone Ocean can’t possibly be hidden forever. The demonic humans will definitely appear, and once they do, there will be clues.”

“Then what should we do next?” Chen Zhicong asked.

“Continue searching?” Huo Zhenshi said carefully.

“No need.” Wang Ye thought for a moment. “Aice is more composed than I expected. Although the four ace rescue teams have been regrouped into two, our strength is still below Stone Ocean. Yet, she didn’t ambush us. On one hand, it shows that she’s very confident in the concealment of the encampment and isn’t afraid of us finding them. On the other hand, it also shows her current plan. She wants to leave us in the lurch first and weaken our morale.”

“Then what should we do?” Chen Zhicong scratched his head.

“Wait too?” Zhao Chi looked at Wang Ye.

Wang Ye shook his head. “To wait it out is still putting the initiative in Stone Ocean’s hands. Since there’s no flaw, we’ll force them to reveal it. Let’s change our way of thinking. If we can’t solve the problem, we’ll solve the culprit who’s preventing us from solving the problem.”

The four captains were stunned.

“Yes, it’s Aice,” Wang Ye said with a smile..
