"Everything will be alright." Luo Chen was unusually gentle; to Jiang Xian'er, he was like a complete stranger.

"Thank you."

After a few quiet minutes, Jiang Xian'er nestled into Luo Chen's arms and whispered.

"Don't worry, I will definitely become the savior of this world. From now on, you won't have to live a life of misery every day, and you won't have to worry about losing your life one day."

The girl's temperament came and went quickly, and she was completely unaffected.

Perhaps it's just that over the years, Jiang Xian'er has long since gotten used to it.

She was like a teenage girl with delusions of grandeur, talking about her greatest dream.

Regardless of how it's resolved, at least she's willing to move forward.

Having dreams is good, but remember, you can't hold me back next time.

Luo Chen muttered to himself, which Jiang Xian'er overheard.

Her face instantly turned as red as the sunset. Fortunately, it was nighttime and the basement was not very bright, so Luo Chen did not notice this unique beauty.

"Don't worry, it won't happen," Jiang Xian'er replied shyly.

"Huh?" Luo Chen was completely bewildered. This girl was really clever; she would blurt out something that left you scratching your head.

"By the way, is everything you said today true?" Jiang Xian'er asked curiously, recalling Luo Chen's speech at the meeting this afternoon.

Luo Chen asked in confusion, "You mean my speech this afternoon?"

Jiang Xian'er nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

"It's true, of course. The two countries are at war and have already used missiles, so they've really shown their skills. There will inevitably be another big battle afterward. Right now, we've been conscripted, which means we're going to the front lines as cannon fodder."

"We mercenaries live to earn money. If we are really conscripted, do we even have a chance to survive?"

Luo Chen pondered all this; the current situation undoubtedly made his mission much more difficult.

No wonder the system said that passing this second level would be very difficult.

“That’s true. If we were conscripted, not only would we not receive any reward, but we would also risk our lives. Of course, we can’t agree to that.” Jiang Xian’er had been around Jiang Tao since she was a child and was well-informed. She could see through many things.

Of course, what's even more important is her strong sense of adolescent delusions.

Luo Chen shrugged and leaned against a pillar, saying, "So forming an alliance is necessary. At least we won't be a disorganized mess like before, but a huge force that even countries won't dare to offend easily. In that case, we'll have more cards to play."

"Jiang Tao is quite capable. The reason he was able to make it happen is that several large mercenary groups are aware of the current situation, which is why everyone was able to participate so smoothly and agree to it."

Jiang Xian'er was delighted by Luo Chen's praise of her father; she felt as if a little person was dancing inside her, and her affection for Luo Chen soared.

"Yes, I hope that the town has achieved remarkable results under Jiang Tao's leadership over the years. The current situation is the best for everyone." Jiang Xian'er suppressed her joy and expressed her opinion.

Luo Chen chuckled softly, regarding Jiang Xian'er's behavior as if a beautiful young woman had appeared on a battlefield.

This is a huge contrast.

However, when viewed in reality, Jiang Xian'er's dream may be related to her childhood experiences or the fact that she was well protected from a young age.

Unlike us, who have experienced too much and lost the impulsiveness of our youth.

It was precisely for this reason that Luo Chen was willing to talk to Jiang Xian'er a little more.

In any case, he was never a part of this world. Even if he wished he was, that "innate" barrier was an insurmountable obstacle between them.

"That's good. What do you think is the most important thing for me right now, and how can I help them?"

A pair of sincere eyes stared at Luo Chen, causing him to involuntarily flinch.

Perhaps this is the aftereffect of being mistaken for a ghost by the stones thrown at me that afternoon.

[Damn, that scared me to death!]

"What did you say?" Jiang Xian'er asked, full of curiosity. She always felt that Luo Chen was different from others. Having lived in the town for so many years, she had seen many strange mercenaries.

But he was never the same as Luo Chen; he always had an air of mystery about him.

He also always says some strange things.

"Nothing. By the way, during your meeting this afternoon, did you notice anything moving behind me?" Luo Chen thought that Jiang Xian'er was sitting behind him and should have noticed something.

Jiang Xian'er's heart skipped a beat, and after thinking for a while, she slowly shook her head.

"No?" Luo Chen thought to himself, "This is bad. Could it really be something fishy?" He then continued, "Did you notice anyone throwing stones at me?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xian'er appeared quite embarrassed, her head lowered, her two slender hands hidden behind her back trembling.

He seemed quite hesitant.

Luo Chen noticed Jiang Xian'er's strange expression and asked uncertainly, "You didn't throw it, did you?"

The atmosphere instantly plummeted to zero.

Jiang Xian'er nodded hesitantly, "You're not angry, are you?"

[Damn, it was you! You scared me half to death, I thought it was the system playing tricks on me, you made me worry for ages.]

[You're not even angry yet, you have that green tea vibe. Oh well, seeing how adorable you are, even if I was angry, it'll all melt away.]

"It's nothing. I originally thought I had offended someone, but it's fine once I've explained myself." Luo Chen forced a smile.

Jiang Xian'er was filled with curiosity, and she could hear Luo Chen's thoughts clearly.

What exactly is this system?

Could it be another mysterious organization trying to assassinate Luo Chen?

By the way, what does "green tea" mean?

Jiang Xian'er ultimately didn't continue speaking. Everyone has their own little secrets, and she didn't want to ask any further.

However, she seemed quite happy that Luo Chen wasn't angry, since she didn't have many friends and was glad to meet Luo Chen today and make some friends.

This was very lucky for Jiang Xian'er, and she cherished it all the more.

In the small town, there were few children her age, and the few who were there felt that Jiang Xian'er was out of place with them.

This resulted in Jiang Xian'er having almost no friends, but it was only because she believed this that she had those strange ideas in her mind.

I'm obsessed with mercenary stories every day, dreaming of becoming someone who saves the world.

"Are you really not angry? I will reflect on my actions in the future." Jiang Xian'er was very happy about this, and stomped her little feet around with some pleasure.

"It's good that you met me and not someone else. Don't do that again. If you mess with mercenaries, they don't care if you're a man or a woman," Luo Chen said with a knowing smile, trying to comfort you.

Being by Jiang Xian'er's side always gives me a very comfortable feeling.

It was so comfortable that it felt like it was all an illusion.
