[When will I finally complete this mission? Am I really going to have to stay here forever?]
Luo Chen was just a damn music player in his mind; he shouldn't have continued the challenge back then.
Well, now he's really messed things up.
"Xiao, I understand how you feel." The guild leader patted Luo Chen on the shoulder and said calmly.
Luo Chen was dumbfounded. No, what do you understand? All you understand is... you're like a pig with a green onion stuck in its nose.
"I know you're also very upset to hear this news, but don't worry, I'm here, I'll take good care of you," the commander said solemnly, as if he were saying goodbye before his death.
"Commander, I'm fine." Luo Chen forced a smile and slowly removed the commander's hand from his shoulder.
Can we just make wild guesses these days? My expression shows I'm upset after hearing this news.
Hmm...that seems true, but this news is still upsetting.
"However, with your abilities, I believe you can still make a name for yourself. Once the alliance is successfully formed, your life will only get more and more carefree." The leader valued Luo Chen highly. Naturally, whoever has such a capable junior would like to have him.
Fortunately, the leader didn't like the golden cudgel against the golden cudgel, otherwise Luo Chen would have truly been walking into the lion's den.
"No way, I only have one thing on my mind, and that is the mission, the mission, the damn mission." Luo Chen forced a smile, but his heart was full of worry.
I wonder how things are over there. If I go back, more than ten years will have passed. What's the point of going back then?
We once again lodge a strong protest against the system.
System: "Protest invalid!"
Luo Chen never expected that the system, that old dog, would reply to him at this moment.
Sure enough, the way to deal with the sixth brother is to be even more of a sixth brother than him.
"Pfft!"
Laughter came from behind him, and without turning around, Luo Chen knew who was laughing.
After all, only Jiang Xian'er could utter such a gentle and shy voice from a young girl.
Luo Chen turned around sharply and glared at Jiang Xian'er, giving her a warning look.
As expected, after Luo Chen's careful instruction, Jiang Xian'er immediately became expressionless.
It must be said that Luo Chen's training was effective; at least he had such a strong deterrent effect on ordinary people.
However, Jiang Xian'er is not an ordinary person after all. Ugh, what is all this nonsense?
Luo Chen felt disgusted with the system.
"What do you think about this?" Jiang Xian'er gently patted Luo Chen's shoulder and asked softly.
Luo Chen glanced at the girl. Although she was still wearing a large hood, she wasn't wearing a mask this time. Her stunningly beautiful face was practically a nuclear weapon.
"What opinion could I possibly have?" Luo Chen shrugged.
The light that had been shining in Jiang Xian'er's eyes gradually faded.
"Sigh, women are such a hassle." Luo Chen glanced at Jiang Xian'er's expression and still said, "In the current situation, we can only accelerate the alliance process. Once the eight major mercenary groups unite with our small mercenary groups, they will naturally become a force to be reckoned with. So it's understandable that they are in such a hurry to send an envoy over. After all, no one would feel comfortable having such a powerful force on their side."
"Furthermore, if we can win them over, it might change the course of the war and make it easier to manage the mercenaries. It's a win-win situation. In my opinion, this is just a gimmick to speed up the alliance. As for whether they're actually coming, I don't know."
Luo Chen turned his head and whispered his analysis to Jiang Xian'er.
"Really? That's amazing!" Jiang Xian'er looked at Luo Chen with the aura of a male god.
This is similar to what her father said. Jiang Xian'er had also asked her father about it, and perhaps the reason for the alliance was here.
Whether this is actually the case remains to be investigated.
However, Luo Chen's ability to deduce this from such a small detail is truly extraordinary.
"No wonder he's the man who dared to touch my feet." Jiang Xian'er slapped herself. What was all this nonsense? Why was her mind filled with these thoughts?
But ever since her intimate encounter with Luo Chen last night, Jiang Xian'er has changed somewhat; she seems to quite like how Luo Chen treats her.
That domineering and handsome man was simply my dream lover.
Luo Chen was unaware that Jiang Xian had fallen into a state of infatuation and paid no attention to her.
Above, Jiang Tao clearly saw that Luo Chen actually spoke to his daughter, and his daughter even had that kind of expression.
"What, what kind of bewitching potion has this kid given Xian'er?" If he weren't presiding over the meeting, Jiang Tao would have already gone down and given Luo Chen a good beating.
This is his precious daughter; no one but him would dare touch her.
Luo Chen was unaware that from this moment on, he had officially entered Jiang Tao's sight, and he could hardly imagine that he had already offended him without even realizing it.
"You brat, just you wait, don't come near my daughter again," Jiang Tao thought fiercely. He knew exactly what his daughter looked like.
I've never seen her show that kind of expression towards a man before, not even when she was a child.
Jiang Tao now wished he could tear Luo Chen to shreds, squeeze him dry, and then dry him in the sun.
"Alright, everyone, I believe you all understand now, so I won't elaborate further. Now, I would like to ask all the leaders to vote and elect the alliance leader as soon as possible." Jiang Tao ultimately prevailed over his emotions, as business was of utmost importance.
Next, there is a voting box on the stage, and each group leader has one choice.
As each group leader cast their slip of paper, the meeting was nearing its end, and the final vote would take place.
"Commander, who did you choose?" Luo Chen was still a little curious about this.
The commander blinked and said dryly, "Who else could it be but the old man? I can't trust anyone else but him."
That's true, Luo Chen can understand. After all, he had followed the King of Mercenaries, and everyone had a certain degree of acceptance of this.
And the final result was exactly as everyone expected: old Tony became the leader.
"It's getting late. Now that the alliance leader has been decided, let's have Old Tony say a few words and discuss the alliance's issues further." Jiang Tao smiled slowly.
Old Tony stood up, bowed to everyone, slowly walked onto the stage, and said with a smile, "Thank you all for your kindness. I'm already quite old, yet I'm still receiving such support from you all."
Thunderous applause!
"Since you've chosen me, I won't keep you in suspense any longer. From now on, I will treat everyone equally, and I will only address the issue at hand, not the individual."
"Since those people over there want us to go up there as cannon fodder, then we'll show them whether we're capable of taking on this role. Even though we're cannon fodder, cannon fodder still makes a sound before it explodes, right?"
Luo Chen smiled; what he said was true.
Everyone has their own value, even ordinary people like you and me!
