Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 801 - 425 Ambition

When Fang Yuxin and the other two were outside tirelessly hunting zombies, Qiu Yiming and Zhao Qiankun, although spending most of their time at Beishi Base, were not relaxed at all.

Since being plotted against by his subordinates last time, Zhao Qiankun had a suspect in mind, but all those people were his trusted subordinates and held significant positions within the Mercenary Corps, with many others loyal to them below. Without sufficient evidence, it was impossible to easily act against them.

After much investigation, he eventually pulled out one person and personally dealt with them, but Zhao Qiankun still felt uneasy, always had a feeling that things weren’t over, that danger was still looming. The remaining people, however, no matter how he investigated, he couldn’t find anything amiss. Added to this, a powerful Level 4 superpower user like Qiu Yiming appeared at the base and allied with the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, which gave him a headache. He could only temporarily put aside his previous suspicions and focus all efforts on dealing with Qiu Yiming.

Compared to him, Qiu Yiming had it even tougher. Although he had met with the higher-ups of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps and used his strength to intimidate them, it wasn’t an easy feat to completely take over such a large organization.

All those high-level members were shrewd and clearly understood his intentions, so they were very much on guard. Qiu Yiming knew exactly what they were scheming; they simply wanted to use him to solve the current troubles and then find a way to get rid of him later.

Qiu Yiming wasn’t about to let them succeed. After a series of open and covert battles, he was quite mentally exhausted, yet the greatest trouble remained Zhao Qiankun. Only by calming him down could he truly resolve the issue of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps.

Because of this, Qiu Yiming was so busy he barely had time to sleep, working late into the night each day and then absorbing Crystal Cores to cultivate his superpower. After spending more than a month, he finally managed to clean up the troubles Bai Zhengyi had caused before, successfully silenced the higher-ups of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, and changed it into the Thunder Mercenary Corps, solidifying his position as squad leader.

What he didn’t expect was that Fang Mengyao, who had been relatively low-profile in the Market, had become high-profile after arriving at Beishi Base, even going out with the Corpse Hunting Team to hunt zombies, showcasing absolute strength.

It was at this time that Qiu Yiming learned Fang Mengyao possessed such methods! Upon discovering this, an idea within his mind began to stir once more.

Initially, he kept Fang Mengyao by his side because he valued her mysterious trump card, but after the incident with Fang Yuxin, in his anger, he grew tired of Fang Mengyao. Their relationship then became more and more distant, and once Fang Mengyao somehow got involved with Shen Xi, Qiu Yiming almost never saw her, and the ambiguous relationship they had faded away.

Back then, he was busy cultivating his superpower and enhancing his strength, still thinking about Fang Mengyao’s mysterious trump card, though due to the increasing distance, he suppressed the thought and stopped thinking about it. However, now, upon seeing Fang Mengyao’s demonstrated strength, he could no longer suppress it.

After becoming a Level 4 superpower user, he had almost no rivals at the Market Base, once believing he had reached a height others couldn’t attain, where no one could pose a threat to him, where no one could stop him from reclaiming what was his. However, upon arriving at Beishi Base, he discovered Zhao Qiankun’s strength actually surpassed his!

Although both sides had only made exploratory moves without getting serious or using their full strength, he felt an immense threat from Zhao Qiankun! It forced him to truly face his current strength.

Coincidentally, Fang Yuxin, whom Qiu Yiming wanted to find, had left Beishi and went missing, leaving him with no choice but to focus his attention elsewhere. Discovering the threat posed by Zhao Qiankun, he once again plunged into frenzied cultivation. Yet, after superpower reached Level 4, it seemed to hit a bottleneck, with no sign of improvement regardless of how many Crystal Cores he absorbed or how much he cultivated.

If there weren’t a threat like Zhao Qiankun, it would be fine, but Zhao Qiankun’s existence was like a sword hanging over his head, and the reality that his superpower couldn’t improve left him in a panic, forcing him to rack his brains for another solution.
