Apocalypse Meltdown

The crowd felt sad with Fu Jialiang's tragic state. They had never expected that such an arrogant and rare phase-2 evolutionary would be reduced to that.

Luo Zhehao thought about what Zhou Zhu told him before locking him and frowned. Then he said to Yang Tian, "Leader, Zhou Zhu confessed to me that the one who had given him the jar was Fu Jialiang. He is responsible for Brother Wu Fan's death too."

When Fu Jialiang heard those words, he was petrified. What he was most scared of actually happened.

Looking at Fu Jialiang's terrified face, everyone realized that it was the truth. At the same time, several evolutionaries retreated. They were astounded by Fu Jialiang's scheme.

Ever since the apocalypse's escalation, evolutionaries held a superior standing. Their soaring battle prowess made them pay less attention to civilized times' status quo. The competition between evolutionaries was fierce, especially after the monoliths' appearance. They wanted to prove that they were stronger than the others through their power.

Hence, Fu Jialiang's behavior was deemed shameless in the evolutionaries' circle!

Chu Han was dazed. Wu Fan was dead? Not even a few hours had passed. How could the phase-3 evolutionary die just like that?

Thinking about Wu Fan's promise to help him if he ever were in trouble, Chu Han could not help but sigh. Although he didn't know about Wu Fan's relationship with Yang Tian, his death should have made Yang Tian mad. 

In the next second, Yang Tian's eyes turned deathly cold, and a tyrannical aura burst out from his body. Without hesitating in the least, Yang Tian stomped on Fu Jialiang's head.

'Bang!'

The stomp carried so much power that Fu Jialiang could not even feel pain. As for reacting or begging for mercy? It was out of the question.

Yang Tian stomped so hard on Fu Jialiang's head that it turned into a bloody paste! 

"What a familiar scene," Wangcai said.

Chu Han was astonished too. It truly seemed familiar as he had also killed others like that. Even though Yang Tian had not seen how Chu Han handled matters such as this, they shared the same tyrannical methods. 

Yang Tian's way of killing left the crowd speechless, and the same time they couldn't control their bodies from trembling. Even Jiang Hongyu, who was Yang Tian's good friend, tried hard to reduce his sense of existence.

Chu Han was the only one who kept silent on purpose. Looking at Yang Tian's ferocious expression while he kept stomping on the bloody paste, Chu Han could not help but pat him on the shoulder. "Let's go. The ones who have died can't come back to life. We should get back."

The crowd was worried about Chu Han's well-being. They thought that nobody would escape from Yang Tian's wrath if he were to be disturbed.

Yang Tian suppressed his pain and anger. Chu Han's care and sincerity touched him. He forced a smile and said, "Okay. Let's go back. I have a lot to tell and share with you."

Back where? Of course, back to the base!

Although Yang Tian was the one who had created the base, in his mind Chu Han was his boss, and naturally he had to be the leader. Unfortunately, Chu Han would never agree to that.

The crowd held Chu Han in even greater esteem after they saw him persuading Yang Tian. From their point of view, their enraged leader was no different than devil incarnate, and there was no way he would be satisfied with only killing one person. The one who would try to persuade him to stop would also be the one to pay the price. However, not only Chu Han was unscathed, he even calmed down their leader.

Many evolutionary looked at each other. It seemed that Yang Tian was not calling Chu Han as his boss for no reason. The base may even change hands after that.

At the same time, in Shangjing base…

The base with the largest population in China was bustling with noise. All kinds of people surged out of the base excitedly while discussing.

"Hurry up! I heard that there was a change in the rankings!"

"I heard. Let's go out and check. It's said that Chu Han's score was S+."

"The top ranker in the phase-1 list?"

"Yes, that one. He is a phase-2 now, and he became the top ranker again. He dethroned Chen Shaoye and sent him in second place!"

"God! Unbelievable. The only one with S+ in China. Two times in a row."

"However, don't you think that Chu Han's evolution rate is too slow?"

"Ah? Slow? I am still a phase-1 evolutionary!"

"Don't try to compare yourself with him. Chu Han isn't a common evolutionary, but a super one. He should be stronger than anyone else, but he is still a phase-2 when even phase-4 evolutionaries have appeared."

Unlike the crowd rushing out to take a look at the list, several people were currently sitting in the base's highest building. It was where China's military figures gathered. 

The leader was Commander-in-Chief Mu, who wanted to appoint Chu Han as Lieutenant General when he was still in the phase-1 list's top ranker. And on his left was a white-haired but energetic old man. He was Luo Xiaoxiao's grandpa, Luo Ming. 

The huge conference room's two front rows were filled with people who looked at the Commander-in-Chief sitting quietly.

"The rankings changed. Although Chen Shaoye's score was S, he was forced to second place," Luo Ming said calmly. "All the soldiers and officials have low scores. As for Bai Yun'er, none of us can control her. Especially now that she's a phase-4." 

"In other words, we have to find Chu Han," someone from the group said. "However, we have been searching for him a long time now, but we're still clueless about his whereabouts. Without communication systems, it's like searching for a needle in a haystack."

"I think we don't need Chu Han," someone had a different opinion. "Although he is the top ranker in both lists with an S+ score, his evolution speed in slower. As you can see on the list, there are nearly 20 phase-4 evolutionaries and more than a thousand phase-3. But what about Chu Han? He is a phase-2 evolutionary. He is in no way similar to Chen Shaoye, who is an Enhanced but doesn't know how he'll evolve. An evolutionary should clearly the conditions to evolve."
