Luoyang was completely plundered by Dong Zhuo. The wealth and food in the imperial palace, government offices, aristocratic family residences and people's homes were all looted. The only remaining things were burned down by Dong Zhuo in a huge fire.

The fire burned for three days, and the former imperial city was reduced to ruins.

Lin Han stood on the top of the city wall, overlooking the ruined scene before him. The prosperous Kyoto was destroyed by a man-made disaster.

All kinds of emotions turned into sighs.

When returning to the camp, the spy brought back information.

Cao Cao led his troops in pursuit of the remnants of Dong Zhuo and Lü Bu's forces, passing through Hangu Pass and reaching Xin'an, where they were ambushed by Xu Rong, a reinforcement sent by Li Ru. Defeated and struck by a stray arrow, Cao Cao was rescued by his cousin Cao Hong, who escaped under cover of darkness and disappeared.

Cao Cao was defeated in his pursuit of Dong Zhuo and fled, his whereabouts unknown.

Sun Jian obtained the imperial seal and left Luoyang.

Yang Ji led his troops away.

Of the twenty vassal states, only Lin Han's was left. It was obviously impossible to march on Chang'an again because there was no logistical support.

Lin Han ordered the disbandment of the player army and prepared to return to Yangzhou.

As soon as the military order was issued, Bai Qi came over.

"Bai Qi, what's the matter?"

"My lord, do you want to disband the rebel army?" Bai Qi asked.

"Food is limited, and it is no longer possible to march west to attack Dong Zhuo. This place is far from Yangzhou, with high mountains and long roads, and it is difficult to supply logistical supplies." Lin Han said.

"I didn't come here for this one thing, but for another."

"What is it?"

"My lord, if you disband the rebel army, can you keep Zuo Xi?" Bai Qi asked.

"Why?"

"He is very talented. He has a great understanding of the generals' tactics. His [Blood Winch] is very powerful. He may be able to help the lord in the future." Bai Qi said, "I can accept him as my student."

Hearing this, Lin Han was surprised.

Zuo Xi's talent must be quite impressive, considering Bai Qi actively offered to accept him as a student. Even Gan Ning, despite his exceptional talent, had to beg Bai Qi to teach him some military leadership skills.

"Actually, there's something I need to tell you. Zuo Xi is a girl." Lin Han said, "Are you sure you want to accept her as your student?"

"Girls?"

Bai Qi was stunned and showed a rare surprise.

No wonder she occasionally behaves strangely and shyly during training. Since she is a girl, everything can be explained.

"Of course you can. It doesn't matter if you're a woman. As long as you have talent, it's fine."

Bai Qi didn't care at all that Madam Qin Liangyu often went to the training ground to train soldiers in Hanjiang City. In his opinion, there was no such thing as women being weak. As long as they were strong enough, it was fine.

"Let me think about it."

After getting Bai Qi's confirmation, Lin Han thought for a while before responding.

Zuo Xi is a gamer. Since the beginning of the game, Lin Han has rarely interacted with other players and plays it almost like a single-player game.

It does take some careful consideration to get him to accept a player.

After a moment, Lin Han decided to take that step and head to the Demon Guard Camp.

Zuo Xi was training with the Demon Guards. She had been learning from Bai Qi since she joined the camp. Seeing Lin Han coming over, Zuo Xi stopped and walked to Lin Han, breathless.

"How do you feel?" Lin Han asked casually.

"Very good." Zuo Xi nodded timidly.

Ever since she saw Lin Han’s terrifying strength, her heart was extremely shocked. Now Lin Han is almost her idol.

"Do you want to work under me and become a professional player?" Lin Han asked.

These words made Zuo Xi stunned, and he looked at Lin Han stupidly.

"If you don't want to, forget it."

"No, no." Zuo Xi reacted and said hurriedly: "I am already a professional player. I am currently a brush in a studio. I am afraid I can't go to your place."

"A brush in the studio? Just quit."

"Resigning requires destroying your account, and you also need to compensate for the loss of virtual reality equipment and financial losses." Zuo Xi whispered.

"Breaking the contract?"

"The work agreement is five years, and breaking the contract will cost three million in compensation."

Zuo Xi stretched out three fingers, lowered his head and chest, feeling a little inferior, and did not dare to look directly at Lin Han.

"I can't afford VR equipment, but I needed a job, so I joined the studio when it launched. This account was created using the equipment provided by the studio. I help the studio complete tasks and earn gold, earning 6,000 yuan a month. If I earn more, I get a share of the bonus. If I resign before the end of the work agreement, my account will be destroyed, and I will also have to compensate for the loss of the VR equipment. The penalty for breach of contract is 3 million yuan."

Zuo Xi was afraid that Lin Han would not believe him, so he showed the online work contract to Lin Han.

Lin Han understood.

Zuo Xi needed a job in reality, so he signed a long-term contract with a small studio.

If Dynasty had chosen to be a studio brush when it first started, it would probably have become a tool of the studio like Zuo Xi.

"I will help you pay the penalty for breach of contract, and the salary will be higher. Are you interested in following me?" Lin Han said.

"But... three million in liquidated damages." Zuo Xidun was surprised.

"The fact that I can say this means that you are worth three million to me. This is a decision I have carefully considered. If you think it over, I can help you break the contract, but we will sign a new contract. You may sell yourself to me, and the treatment will definitely be better than your current small studio. It's your choice."

"How much is the monthly salary?" Zuo Xi asked timidly.

"My monthly salary is ten times what you have now."

Hearing this, Zuo Xi's timid eyes brightened up, and he looked at Lin Han with courage.

Since the rise of the War General system, the value of War Generals has skyrocketed. The studio had previously told her that after this event, they would sell her contract to a large guild.

She works for a large guild.

Instead of working for a big guild, it’s better to follow the big guys.

"I'm willing to sell myself to you... No, no, I want to follow you." After saying that, Zuo Xi's eyes dodged and his ears turned red.

"Okay, I'll draw up two agreements for you."

A long-term employment agreement and a confidentiality agreement.
