Chapter 309 How is Zhong Mu inferior to you?
Zhong Mu still kept smiling as if nothing had happened and took the red butterfly handed to him by Ling Feng.
The two butterflies seemed to be communicating with each other, but Zhong Mu had no free butterfly in his hand. The one he handed over was the one that Zhong Mu had not used for a long time to contact Boss Ye.
The red one in Ling Feng's hand is for contacting Yin Xiu.
But because Brother Xiu is in a special situation now, the communication butterfly cannot be contacted, so there is just no sound.
Zhong Mu silently put away the communication butterfly, and then planned to go back and discuss it with the people in the town later.
Just as he was about to get up and sneak back to find someone to pass on the message, Ling Feng grabbed his shoulder and said, "The people in the town are very hostile to us now. I'm worried that something might happen to you, so don't wander around the town for the time being. Stay at the base."
Zhong Mu looked at the hand on his shoulder, frowned, but still managed a smile and said, "I just want to go out and see if there are any clues, and observe the situation in the town."
Ling Feng shook his head. "People like you are very likely to be captured and held hostage. It's better for you to stay here. I'll let others investigate."
Zhong Mu gritted his teeth. This was silently restricting his personal freedom.
Not sure if Ling Feng had noticed anything, but for fear of arousing greater suspicion, Zhong Mu had no choice but to agree with a smile. After going through the entire process, the corners of his mouth almost froze.
He was not allowed to go out during the day, so he would sneak out at night. The town was so small that he would always have a chance!
While staying at the bus stop, Zhong Mu kept observing Ling Feng's attitude towards everyone in the entire small base. He didn't know whether this person was used to being the captain and couldn't change his habit of giving orders to others, and the aura of superiority that was hard to hide.
But the dungeon players are indeed leaderless now. They need a chief, and naturally they don’t have too many opinions about Ling Feng.
According to Zhong Mu's observation, Ling Feng should like being a leader and like to lead the weak. He will keep an eye on everyone who has a goal assigned to him to ensure that they complete their plan. He is extremely rigorous.
But in the entire small base, Zhong Mu was the only one who had nothing to do, like a vase. Ling Feng didn't assign him anything to do.
Even when Ling Feng was giving orders, he would take the time to come over and talk to Zhong Mu, as if he was afraid that he was bored.
Zhong Mu was speechless.
This person's eagerness towards him was completely different from his attitude towards other people, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Time passed quickly in the small town. Zhong Mu had not been in the small base for long when it gradually darkened. While Ling Feng was busy, he silently left the small base quietly as night fell.
His flashlight had been taken away, but he was already familiar with the town's structure and could tell the general direction even in the dark. He just needed to find the nearest player's residence in the town and pass on the message.
Zhong Mu walked in the town on tiptoe. After changing his appearance in a deserted place, he went into the town. After successfully exchanging information with people, he disguised himself and walked back at the speed of light.
He was afraid that if he left for too long, Ling Feng would become suspicious, so he simply exchanged some information and went back.
But as he walked back, a flashlight beam swept over in the darkness and fell directly on Zhong Mu.
Zhong Mu was very familiar with this light; it was his flashlight, and the owner behind the light was unsurprisingly Ling Feng.
The two met in the narrow corridor of the town, neither of them saying a word. Zhong Mu glanced around, his palms sweating. This road led to the town, but he didn't expect Ling Feng to find it. It was really bad luck.
"I noticed you weren't in the base. I thought something had happened to you, so I came out to look for you." Ling Feng stood in the darkness, his face outlined by the light, his eyes full of doubt. "Where have you been?"
Zhong Mu knew that lying at this moment would arouse greater suspicion, so he simply confessed, "I went to the small town."
"What are you going to do in the town? I clearly told you that there are other people to take care of the town's affairs, so why are you still going?" Ling Feng frowned and slowly took a step forward, pressing Zhong Mu. "Is there any reason you have to go?"
Zhong Mu was a little annoyed by the desire for control that he exuded silently. It was okay for other members to be commanded by him, but Zhong Mu didn't like being controlled by such a person, not to mention that Ling Feng's control over him was obviously stronger than that of others.
Zhong Mu simply went all out and looked up at Ling Feng seriously, "Let's go to the town to see the person I want to see."
"Who?" Ling Feng quickly became alert.
Zhong Mu said calmly, "Zhong Mu, he protected me when the black fog came before, and I have a good impression of him. I wanted to know if he was injured in the black fog this time, so I went to check."
Ling Feng's eyes were fixed on Zhong Mu, and he was about to say that he was looking at Zhong Mu who now looked like a doctor.
Using the appearance of a doctor, he said that he was close to Zhong Mu, which made Zhong Mu feel a little excited.
"You can't have a favorable impression of the town members! You're enemies!" Ling Feng now looked like he couldn't accept it. "Besides, Zhong Mu is just a newcomer! Not as good as the best, but better than the worst, just slightly better than the regular newcomers. You should trust me instead of him."
Zhong Mu immediately became furious. "How is Zhong Mu not as good as you? Even though he's a newcomer, he has a lot of potential!"
"Heh." Ling Feng sneered, "He's just a rookie who's sheltered by the town and protected by Yin Xiu. What potential does he have? His environment is just better than that of ordinary rookies."
Zhong Mu was so angry that his eyes turned black.
Although he did have a better environment than the average newcomer, he tried very hard not to hold the bosses back and tried very hard to help everyone. This person didn't know him at all and easily denied him, which made him very angry.
Zhong Mu stared at Ling Feng coldly with his doctor's face, not hiding his disgust at all, "Who do you think you are? You are not even as good as Zhong Mu, an ungrateful wolf who betrayed Yin Xiu."
As he said that, he stepped over Ling Feng, not wanting to have anything to do with him anymore.
But those words clearly stung Ling Feng. His expression twisted instantly, and he grabbed Zhong Mu as he passed by, glaring at him. "Yin Xiu is clearly the unstable and dangerous one. He's mutated and is hanging out with monsters. Why would you trust him?"
"In the final analysis, it's just that you admire the strong! You will choose someone stronger to protect you! I can obviously lead everyone, why should I be looked down upon by you! Why should I be rejected!"
