Chapter 376: Volunteer

“What is this?”

Ah Tao picked up the translucent tube and asked in surprise.

Ye Zhongming tried to form the sentence before saying, “It is a potion that came from my home. Only by consuming this could someone from my home enter a new realm.”

Ah Tao listened on intently. Especially when Ye Zhongming mentioned his home, his body leaned forward like he was afraid he missed anything.

“I have been thinking about whether or not it is useful for Posthumous people. But I couldn’t test it on your lives, so it was just a thought until recently…”

Ye Zhongming didn’t continue, but Ah Tao understood what he meant. This old man sounded happy and complicated. Ah Tao was happy to see the young man cherish his tribe, but the Dabu tribe was still a part of the Posthumous race.

Things weren’t as simple as black or white. Ah Tao sighed to himself.

“Although the end of the experiment hasn’t been reached, it is nearly three days, and it looks good. The people who used the potion seem stronger. This one-star potion can raise their strength by 25% in two days.”

Ah Tao’s eyes lit up. 25%?

Ah Tao naturally knew the person Ye Zhongming experimented on. He was level two to around level three. Wasn’t it too exaggerated for his strength to increase by 25% in just two days?

“This is a one-star potion. This is two-star. I don’t have too many, and my highest level is two-star, so I don’t want to waste it on others.”

Ah Tao understood. Ye Zhongming didn’t have many of these left. If he continued to experiment with it, the moment they fully understood its effects, not many would remain. Even if they proved that there weren’t any side effects, it wouldn’t help them much.

But this thing wasn’t fully tested, if there were side effects…

Ah Tao frowned and didn’t dare to decide. This concerned life and death. Even if he was the leader, he couldn’t be rash.

Ye Zhongming looked at Ah Tao and gave a suggestion.

“Maybe you can ask who is willing. Tell them the effects and the possible side effects to search for someone willing. We can control the number. This can help us reduce the risk. We won’t waste much of these if there are no side effects.”

“But…” He was still unable to decide. Death was a huge matter to the entire tribe.

“High risk comes with high rewards. If we continue developing like this, it will take a long time for us. Since there is a shortcut, we need to take a gamble. Moreover, I am 80% sure it is harmless. There is only a 20% chance of failure. This probability is worth us taking a gamble.”

The old man stood up and walked around the tent. He bit his teeth, “Okay, but you can only select those level-two and below. After confirming that it is okay, you can only use it at scale!”

Ye Zhongming smiled, “That was what I wanted.”

……………………………………………………………………

News spread quickly throughout the tribe. The excitement, along with terror, was something they didn’t feel even when they conquered Dabu’s tribe.

A thing that could increase your strength the moment you drank it without needing you to train. That thing would not only attract their tribe, but it would also attract the Kings in the imperial cities.

Everyone talked about it for a whole day.

The harmonious Ah Tao tribe started to quarrel for the first time because of the potion.

Guys naturally craved power. They didn’t want to give up on a chance to get stronger, even if they had to take a significant risk.

But guys had parents, wives, kids. These people often wanted them to be safe. Strength could increase through cultivation, but if they lost their lives, everything was over.

Disagreements happened because of their differing viewpoints.

Ah Tao tribe all gathered beside the bonfires a day later. They stood before Ye Zhongming and Ah Tao. The complicated emotions were at a maximum.

“We have explained the potion very clearly yesterday. This time, we need five volunteers to take the risk. Kids, I hope all of you consider clearly before you make your choice.”

Ah Tao looked at his race and described the outcomes that might occur. He pointed at the five bottles, “30 breaths later, those willing to use it can walk to the front.”

The quiet area got noisy once more. Many families debated for the last time. Some succeeded, and some failed.

Thirty breaths later, 20 of them stood up.

Ah Tao glanced, and his expression wasn’t good.

Ye Zhongming shook his head.

Half of those people were old and weak. Either they had irrecoverable injuries from previous fights and could not step up. Or they were old and felt they should take the risk of leaving some seeds for the people. If it was really good, then the kids could eat it.

Apart from those who took up over half, the remaining were why Ah Tao and Ye Zhongming shook their heads. These were the strongest and most core people of the tribe.

The two hunting captains, Di Nuo and Kai Nuo, the two most respected elders, and also… Miya.

Ah Tao allowed things to happen to others, but not these few. They were the core and hope of the entire tribe, and they couldn’t take the risk.

“They few of you, scram back!” Ah Tao scolded them coldly.

“Leader, we can do it; if it is useful, then we…”

“Scram!”

Ah Tao, who rarely got angry, hollered and terrified them. The two captains and elders gritted their teeth and backed down. Only Miya raised her face and looked at Ah Tao.

“Tribe Leader Grandfather, we have no way back. If we can’t get stronger, it would be the race meeting after winter. Do you think the kings will let us off for killing our race? No, they won’t let us off. The only way we can leave is to become so strong that they fear us. Since that is the case, what is there to be afraid of? Even if I will die because of this, I am willing to try for the tribe!”

Those words were firm, making Ye Zhongming look at her differently.

This weak, introverted, primitive tribe had such foresight. This girl was good.

Ye Zhongming knew that at least two people now saw his real goal. One was Ah Tao, and the other was Miya.

They knew that he was doing this to make them stronger. But he was also tying them to the same car and making them a part of his plan.

But this helped both sides. Ah Tao didn’t say it but Miya did.

“I heard that there are two types; I want the better one.”
