Zhang Mu felt that he had overdosed himself this time. Originally, he planned to arrange the identities of two first-level evolvers for himself and Yuan Rui, which should not attract any attention. In this way, he could easily approach the Epoch Store in Shanxi City, successfully complete the Epoch Merchant Mission, and then leave here quietly.
But the problem lies in the awakened ability he chose. For some reason, the evolvers with the ability to tame are now crucial in Long Qi's plan to retake Jinzhong City, so they are qualified to be received and talked to by the leader of this gathering place.
However, the most ridiculous thing is that the leader of Shanxi City that Zhang Mu met this time was not the ice girl who could freeze all life in a person with one glance in his original memory, but the bald fat man Long Qi whom he met when the end of the world was about to come.
Because of his own actions, his entire destiny changed. Originally, Long Qi, who was supposed to be one of the zombies, escaped the trajectory of fate. Coupled with some adventures that he did not reveal, he advanced to the second level and reached his current status and strength.
However, Zhang Mu quickly adjusted his mindset. Although he was anxious to complete the Epoch Merchant mission and leave, Long Qi would definitely not let him go. What's more, he himself was also very interested in retaking the city. Originally, he was just a cannon fodder, but now it seemed that he could participate in some of the most advanced decisions and complete essential links.
Thinking of this, Zhang Mu slowly became excited, with crazy flames flashing in his eyes.
Less than two months after the apocalypse began, are you going to retake the prefecture-level cities? How bold! I like it!
Moreover, this Epoch Merchant Mission was not very attractive to Zhang Mu, because the profits he could earn from this trip were limited, and most importantly, even if he completed this order, he would not be promoted to the status of a junior agent merchant all at once. It would only be an ordinary Epoch Merchant Mission.
The reward for the trainee agent was not very attractive to Zhang Mu, who was at the first level at that time. However, Zhang Mu, who is now a second-level evolver, completely despised those universal goods of the era that were regarded as treasures by the current evolvers.
Now, he was obviously more interested in Long Qi's plan. He believed that if the plan was well planned, he could gain a huge profit from it. He stared at Long Qi and said, "You have to tell me first how you want me to help you?"
Long Qi had been waiting for Zhang Mu's decision.
In fact, he also knew that the three thousand yuan taken away by Zhang Mu was at most a favor of some size, and it still depended on whether Zhang Mu would acknowledge it or not.
However, if he wants to successfully implement his plan this time, he cannot afford any mistakes. He needs powerful and tamable evolvers of those mutant beasts to serve as his scouts. Moreover, as a descendant of the Thieves' Sect, Zhang Mu's physical skills are naturally much better than those of ordinary people. This is also the key reason why Long Qi values Zhang Mu.
Indeed, it can be seen from his master and Zhang Mu that their training mainly focuses on the hands, and strength and stability of the lower body are not given much attention, but the reaction speed must be beyond ordinary people.
He had previously heard from his civil servants that Zhang Mu's mutant beast was a mutant wolfhound comparable to Lei Zi. His plan this time required the part with keen senses: smell, vision, hearing, he wanted them all.
However, in his own gathering place, there are too few evolvers with this ability tendency.
Including Li Hu with Lei Zi, there are only three people in total, and the others are relatively weaker.
Long Qi looked at Zhang Mu with burning eyes. Seeing that Zhang Mu also agreed, he smiled and said, "I will tell you the specific plan when the time comes. It's not that it's confidential, but I haven't come up with a reliable plan based on the strength of the gathering place yet."
Afraid that Zhang Mu would misunderstand that he was just acting on impulse, Long Qi immediately added, "It's not that I'm still preparing, but I want to try my best to come up with a perfect plan to reduce losses. After all, if one less human being is lost, there will be no more.
My group of civil servants are now doing statistics on the strength of the gathering place, but we have only found a small part of the outermost information about the strength of Jinzhong City, and there is no way to make an accurate estimate. This is what I need you to do, and the subsequent plans will also be made and changed based on your data feedback."
He seemed to be feeling a little emotional. "In the past, people always complained about the overpopulation. Now, there are only so few people left. I always have a sense of crisis. This is why I am so eager to retake the city. We are evolving. Who knows whether these zombies and those creatures that have mutated from animals will continue to evolve."
Zhang Mu nodded in agreement. In fact, Long Qi already had a strategic vision, which was the most important point that he admired about Long Qi. Now, after the debugging period, it was indeed a period of time when human strength was relatively strong.
But most of the leaders of the gathering places are thinking about how to protect themselves.
If they really encounter some irresistible danger, it is normal for them to abandon their own territory.
Zhang Mu said solemnly, "Even Lei Zi can't enter the real core of Jinzhong City?"
Long Qi's expression was also extremely serious at this time. He looked at Zhang Mu who was thinking and said, "Yes, I asked Li Hu to try it once. Lei Zi could not advance even a single step after he broke through the first two lines of defense formed by the zombies.
According to what Li Hu learned from Lei Zi, the zombies and mutants coexisted inside, and Lei Zi was forced out by the mutants from this direction as soon as he entered. We approached from the outside once, and they seemed to have reached some agreement to jointly stop us. The zombies were responsible for defense, and the mutants were responsible for attack. We paid a heavy price to evacuate. "
"Are you looking for a hole that can lead us into Jinzhong City?" Zhang Mu's face was still solemn as he continued to ask, "Even if we find a weak hole where the zombies or small mutant beasts are, and we go straight into the deepest center, what if we get surrounded?"
The corners of Long Qi's mouth slowly rose. "I have my own way to deal with it later. Besides, those mutant beasts stopped chasing us when they drove us three kilometers away from Jinzhong City."
At this time, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he said in an affirmative tone, "So I feel that this city is not simple. There must be something in the center of the city that makes them fear or desire something, and they are unwilling to leave.
Then the key to recapture Jinzhong City lies in the very center of this city!
Therefore, I need you and your girlfriend to cooperate with my three evolvers and use mutant beasts to go as deep as possible from five directions. Only with mutant beasts, the reaction of the zombies outside will not be too intense because they may have an agreement with each other, thus notifying the mutant beasts nearby. Then, only when your mutant beasts encounter those in the city will they reveal their flaws. "
From the information revealed by Long Qi, Zhang Mu confirmed a fact.
There must be intelligent zombies in this Jinzhong city. If they can reach an agreement with the mutant beasts, there must be something wrong!
Zhang Mu felt that he had made some money this time.
Scout? I haven't done it for a long time!
It's still a little exciting when I think about it now. He stared at Long Qi with burning eyes and said something.
"Okay, I, Zhang Mu, will pay back this debt."
