After hearing Lin Cong's words, someone immediately started to sarcastically say, "Why do you want to break us up and leave your own forces? How can we survive if you are the only one left?"

Lin Cong's eyes turned cold as he looked in the direction of the person who had spoken. He was still instigating the people around him. He scanned the person with a cold gaze and continued, "If you are not convinced, you can go down and talk to your former leader. In order to maintain a common language, you can also die in the same way."

After hearing Lin Cong's words, everyone present couldn't help but subconsciously look in the direction of the six mummies, and suddenly there was no sound. After the man before felt that Lin Cong had no intention of joking with him, he also hid in the crowd.

Lin Cong stopped looking in that direction and continued to organize his words according to the instructions Zhang Mu had just given him. "Second, abolish the slave agreement between ordinary people and the evolvers. Ordinary people will receive rewards through basic work, and the evolvers will be assigned tasks in a unified manner through the gathering place. The specific situation will be announced later.

The flesh trade can continue, but it cannot be forced. Once there is a report of coercion of ordinary people or Evolved, if the situation is true, heavy punishment will be imposed, and the reporter will be rewarded. "

No matter what was said now, no one would refute Lin Cong, because the six mummies had been hung high up, blown up and down in the air by the wind, and their empty eye sockets were staring at the people below.

"One last thing, the mutant beasts outside Luoyang City will be dealt with within three days."

After saying that, Lin Cong left where he was standing, leaving the crowd in an uproar.

"He doesn't want us to go out of the city and fight those beasts? He wants to forcibly recruit us? I don't want to die in vain. How can I be a match for those beasts in a one-on-one fight? Besides, I'm afraid our numbers are not enough."

"They should be able to solve it themselves. If they need our help, no one is willing to go out now."

Voices like these were heard one after another, but the protagonists of the incident, Zhang Mu and Lin Cong, had already left here quietly.

When Zhang Mu said this to Lin Cong, Lin Cong was also shocked. If Zhang Mu couldn't do it, it would have a great impact on Wang Liang's leadership.

And prestige will be devastating.

However, out of trust in Zhang Mu, Lin Cong did not consult Wang Liang and directly announced the news to all the evolvers.

This news is the best way to stabilize the morale of the troops and divert their attention.

As for how to achieve it specifically, Zhang Mu had to go back and think about it carefully.

Three days is enough time, and the words have been spoken. The arrow is on the string and must be shot.

When Zhang Mu returned to his own courtyard, Yuan Rui had already prepared the meal, which was the mutant beast meat that Zhang Mu had left for Lin Cong and the others, as well as some food that she had collected and urgently sent over.

He looked at Yuan Rui, who was sitting opposite him and eating slowly, and thought about what happened just now. He put down his chopsticks and thought about what to say.

Yuan Rui noticed his abnormality and stopped, looking at Zhang Mu and said, "What's wrong, uncle? Are you worried about something?"

Zhang Mu thought about it and told her, "First, the mutant beasts outside the city must be dealt with quickly. Second, we may have to separate for a while. You haven't completed your Epoch Merchant mission yet. It's time to go to Xi'an City to deliver it. There's no benefit in delaying it.

I will let the obsidian worm follow you to protect you. In these two months, you can try to complete two more Epoch Merchant missions. After completing them, we will head inland or to the south of the Yangtze River."

Yuan Rui didn't say anything for a while after hearing this. Instead, she asked Zhang Mu a question, "Uncle, what is the maximum duration of an Epoch Merchant Mission?"

"Half a year."

Yuan Rui seemed to be relieved all of a sudden. She picked up a piece of braised pork for Zhang Mu and said cheerfully, "Since it's half a year, it's still early. I can accompany you until the deadline and then hand in the task."

Zhang Mu smiled bitterly and said, "But if the amount exceeds the task amount and the time is too long, many Epoch Stores will refuse you entry. Wouldn't it be a wasted trip?"

Yuan Rui seemed to be indifferent. She put down her chopsticks and said angrily, "Uncle, I originally contacted this Jiyuan store as you said because I wanted to know what you were doing. As long as I can complete this task, it will be fine."

Anyway, I have already paid enough now, so when the deadline is approaching, you can go with me for a while, right?

My current ability has reached the second level. Although it was given by you, uncle, I can protect myself and heal your injuries. I can help you a lot by your side."

It’s over. So this is what Yuan Rui thought. She never took the mission of the Jiyuan merchant seriously.

Well, the identity of Jiyuan agent that others are vying for is not worth mentioning in her eyes.

"Uncle, you're not going to chase me away, are you?"

Provoked by this, Zhang Mu had no choice but to compromise, completely breaking his previous plan. He could only complete three Epoch Merchant missions first, then take on another one, first to Xi'an City, and then start his long journey.

After night fell, Zhang Mu came to the wall of Luoyang City. With his current night vision, he could see clearly that a large number of mutant beasts were still gathered in the distance and they did not disperse, even at night.

He stepped on the temporary outer city wall beneath his feet. It was only built by the first-level earth-type evolvers. If real mutant beasts came to attack the city, they might not be able to withstand a single attack.

"In Jiyuan City, a breath of air is enough to make one sleep peacefully. It is not unreasonable that everyone is fighting for its ownership."

“Whoever wins this city wins the hearts of the people, and whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world.”

Zhang Mu was thinking about how to deal with the white tiger. The tactic of capturing the leader first was not working now. Zhang Mu was not sure whether he could kill the white tiger after being trapped in the herd. The white tiger was not an ordinary second-order mutant beast.

However, if it is so spiritual, it cannot be the kind of vicious beast that would be blinded by hatred. Why would it waste so much time and energy to besiege a city that it dares not attack at all?

What does it want?

Really, is it just waiting for Zhang Mu, the murderer who wiped out half of its clan, to come back?

Why was it so sure that Zhang Mu would come back? If Zhang Mu didn't return to Luoyang City, wouldn't it be wasting its efforts here?

There were many doubts, but it was dark at night and Zhang Mu could not find any trace of the white tiger, so he had to give up.
