Luo Chen felt as if he had been subjected to a dimensional attack by his buddy's words.
What's truly fascinating is that this mercenary, with over a decade of experience, possesses such a devastating ability to deliver devastating blows.
No wonder he and Luo Chen came to this meeting.
He has always been good at understanding things.
Faced with Luo Chen's two huge, bell-like eyes, Lao Tie was full of question marks.
"Did I say something wrong?"
Then he glanced at the mysterious man with the large hood, and the more he looked, the more he felt that something was wrong with this person.
Something eerie must be hiding something!
This is a truth, at least in the eyes of Lao Tie (a nickname for a person).
"Xiao, there's definitely something wrong with this guy." Lao Tie's tone was very firm, like the unwavering tone he would use when a woman asks him if he loves her, as if he's about to take off his pants in bed.
Luo Chen stretched out his hand.
If it weren't for the crowd here, I'd really like to dig your brain open and see what kind of mush is inside.
Just as Luo Chen was thinking of further criticizing Lao Tie, Lao Tie opened his mouth again: "Xiao, this person seems to be looking at me?"
Luo Chen took a deep breath, suppressing his volcanic rage, feeling like he was about to burst into tears.
"Dude, if you keep staring at people like that, even a pig would notice you."
Lao Tie quickly averted his gaze, then looked at Luo Chen and murmured, "Xiao, you seem to be right."
"Alright, just be careful." Luo Chen couldn't quite figure out Lao Tie for a moment; this guy probably messed up his brain from being a mercenary.
Normally, I don't do any of the things.
Naturally, Jiang Xian'er also noticed Lao Tie's eyes, and felt that there was a sinister aura in this guy's eyes.
Anyway, he's not a normal person.
This further solidified their belief that Luo Chen was a villain who wanted to disrupt world peace, and was even highly likely to sabotage the alliance.
She was certain because she always felt her intuition was very strong.
Yes, her intuition had always been right.
Therefore, Jiang Xian'er changed her mind and decided to find a way to get closer to this person to obtain more information.
Once he had solid evidence, he immediately told his father.
"Yes, first observe and get close to her, then tell Father all the information about this person." Jiang Xian'er cautiously glanced at Luo Chen through the brim of her hat, making plans in her mind: "I originally thought my life would not be eventful, but Heaven has given me such a great task. From now on, there will be a King of Mercenaries in the mercenary world?"
"No, we already have a King of Mercenaries. How about we call her the Mother of Mercenaries? Hmm, no, that sounds a bit awful?"
Jiang Xian'er was immediately troubled. It was really not easy to come up with a title for her future in such a short time.
The Queen Mother of Mercenaries?
Mercenary Saint?
"No, no, these are all too awful to hear."
Luo Chen, who was ahead, naturally paid some attention to Jiang Xian'er, but he didn't expect that this mysterious person wearing a big hood would shake his head to himself from time to time.
"The people in this dream are indeed extraordinary; they are truly terrifying."
This time, Luo Chen calmed himself down and gained a new understanding of dreams; they were truly terrifying.
Just as Jiang Xian'er was thinking about her future title, Jiang Tao returned to the podium once again.
As Jiang Tao returned to the stage, the noise below gradually subsided.
Everyone craned their necks to look at Jiang Tao, waiting for his next words.
Everyone understands that what came before was just an appetizer, and now the main course is just beginning.
As mentioned before, establishing a mercenary alliance here is not an easy task.
Secondly, and most importantly, is who can be the person in charge.
In Luo Chen's eyes, the world of dreams is nothing more than an upgraded version of the underworld.
What do underworld leaders rely on?
The logic is simple: in this world, you need real ability.
Three words that can convince everyone!
"Mayor Jiang, stop keeping me in suspense and just tell me already," Sangge said impatiently, exhaling a smoke ring from his mouth and holding a cigar.
The other regimental commanders also looked somewhat impatient.
You, Jiang Tao, are the town mayor, that's true, but it doesn't necessarily mean these large mercenary groups will be afraid of you.
You've given them face, but you can't take that face for granted and rub it away.
Jiang Tao coughed lightly, his expression somewhat serious, and said, "I apologize for keeping you all waiting. I just received a message."
He paused, then looked at everyone.
This pause naturally attracted the attention of the audience, especially since Jiang Tao's expression was serious as he spoke.
Immediately, a cacophony of voices rose from the audience, as if Jiang Tao's words had struck a nerve with everyone.
Even if it doesn't go inside, it can still make you feel very uncomfortable.
Even the expressions of the leaders in front were somewhat solemn, and even the usually indifferent Sangge was now smoking heavily with a serious expression.
"Xiao, something's really wrong." Lao Tie turned to look at Luo Chen.
【What? You don't need to tell me?】
"Xiao, based on my many years of experience, it seems that Jiang Tao is intentionally trying to escalate this matter?"
Luo Chen was somewhat surprised; his friend had finally returned to normal.
He nodded in agreement: "Look at those words. The moment they were spoken, everyone became alert. Although we don't know what they were saying, they are definitely not simple."
Lao Tie nodded, and Jiang Tao on stage spoke again.
"Gentlemen, we have just received a secret report. The two countries are at war, and the country has accelerated its conscription of us. The fighting is also getting more and more intense."
This time!
The crowd completely lost their composure; after all, it concerned their own lives, and they couldn't treat it lightly.
What does this mean? It means that the war has spread completely, and they now only have two choices.
One is to establish an alliance, and it needs to be established in a very short time.
Another simple point is that without forming an alliance, everyone is just waiting to die.
No matter how powerful a regiment is, it can't directly confront the power of a nation.
As the saying goes, with fewer people, the voice for fighting for rights naturally weakens.
At that point, who will care whether you live or die?
[The guess is correct. Regardless of whether the news is true or not, Jiang Tao has already grasped everyone's psychology very well.]
For mercenaries, what's most important? Life, of course. What's the point of playing if you're dead?
"Xiao, he's serious now." Old Tie reverted to his usual crazy self and said with a serious expression.
Luo Chen's expression turned serious. If that were really the case...
That had both advantages and disadvantages for him.
Good things come in chaos; once things are in chaos, even his mission can survive in the cracks.
Overall, however, the downsides outweigh the downsides; once things get chaotic, the mission becomes even more difficult.
Everyone wants to live, so who cares about you?
Right now, for Luo Chen, the key is to accelerate the improvement of his own strength; that's the only way forward.
