Volume 1_Chapter 70: Desperate



Zhang Mu rubbed his ear which was hurt by the black obsidian worm. With the help of Yuan Rui's life energy, he felt better. However, he was helpless and could only put away the blood vine lotus and walked out of the yard, thinking that he was unlucky.

But just as he walked out of the courtyard gate, Zhang Mu looked up and was almost frightened. A dark crowd of people was standing outside his courtyard gate, surrounding his courtyard. Everyone was holding a variety of weapons in their hands, and many people were standing on tiptoe to look into the courtyard.

But Wang Liang, who was at the front, did not take a single step, and the others did not dare to act rashly either.

"What's going on? What's happening?" Zhang Mu said to Wang Liang in confusion.

Seeing Zhang Mu coming out, Wang Liang finally breathed a sigh of relief. His serious expression finally relaxed. He answered Zhang Mu, "The roar just now came from your courtyard, Brother Mu. Almost the entire gathering place heard it. Everyone thought a mutant beast had broken in, but I remembered your instructions, Brother Mu, so I didn't get close."

"So that's how it is. It's okay, it's just a little pet of mine." Zhang Mu waved his hand to reassure Wang Liang.

"This way I can give them an explanation. The appearance of the mutant beasts last time left a shadow in many people's hearts, so Brother Mu, don't blame them."

Although Wang Liang said this, his assessment of Zhang Mu's strength had risen to a higher level. He was the leader of a gathering place, so he naturally knew the strength and function of each of his evolvers.

He used to think that Zhang Mu's awakened ability was just the ability to tame an evolver, and all the evolvers under his command who had this ability had already reported to him. Now they can only tame one mutant beast at most, and strong mutant beasts are difficult to tame.

But now, as far as he knew, Zhang Mu had at least a wolfdog or a mutant wild wolf, and Wang Liang was sure that the sound he heard just now could not be a wolf's howl.

Therefore, there is only one very scary possibility, that is, Zhang Mu has a second mutant beast.

This fact made Wang Liang increasingly unable to see through Zhang Mu. His wealth, methods, and courage. Now even his personal evolutionary ability, which Wang Liang originally thought was Zhang Mu's biggest shortcoming, seemed not to be that simple.

Every time Zhang Mu reveals his true self

Wang Liang felt that the gap between him and Zhang Mu was getting bigger and bigger. He also had a hunch that Zhang Mu definitely had more than just these few cards in his hand, and those cards he hadn't revealed must be much more terrifying than what they were now.

This feeling of being unable to catch up is really a headache, but fortunately Zhang Mu is not an enemy, and he has a cooperative relationship with him. There is no conflict of interest between the two parties. On the contrary, Zhang Mu is now the biggest springboard for Wang Liang to realize his ambitions.

Thinking of this, Wang Liang felt relieved. Since Zhang Mu was not his enemy, he had no way to change him. He might as well actively cooperate with Zhang Mu to gain greater benefits.

Interests are the best guarantee for maintaining friendship.

Wang Liang turned around and looked at the people who were whispering. He glanced around and said nothing.

These ordinary people and ordinary evolvers instantly became quiet after seeing Wang Liang's gaze, waiting for Wang Liang to speak.

"Don't worry. Brother Zhang Mu said that the roar just now was caused by his mutant beast accidentally. He feels sorry for disturbing everyone, so let's go back first."

Wang Liang's tone gradually took on a bit of the majesty of a superior, making people feel they had to believe him.

"So that's how it is. The beast roar that was so powerful was actually the mutant beast that the man tamed. Doesn't that mean that this man is very powerful?"

"Yes, yes, this sound is more powerful than any I've heard before, otherwise I wouldn't have been so scared to run over to see what was going on. Now everything is fine, that's good."

"Well, it's good that we have more powerful evolvers in the gathering place. Since everything is fine, we are relieved."

"Well, let's go, get back to work, don't just stand there like an idiot."

"How could you be so stupid as to hold your weapon so tightly."

.......The crowd, which was originally shrouded in a serious atmosphere, suddenly felt relieved of the pressure after being disturbed by these people who were making jokes. Many people nodded to each other and returned to their original residences or jobs. The roar of the beast just now only became a topic of conversation for them after dinner.

Seeing the crowd disperse, Wang Liang turned to look at Zhang Mu, wanting to hear what his future plans were.

"Brother Mu, what are your plans for the future? Do you want to come with me to clean up the zombies?

"If you can help me, I think my efficiency will be greatly improved. I will give you 30% of the profits. What do you think?"

Thirty percent. Wang Liang’s contribution was not small. You know, Zhang Mu had not yet revealed the existence of the Blood Vine Lotus in front of him. He alone gave thirty percent of the benefits, while Wang Liang and his evolvers took seventy percent.

Zhang Mu smiled and shook his head. "Although the commission you give me is quite high, do you want to treat me as a laborer? I am not exaggerating. Even if you give me 100%, I will not be tempted now. What I want now is not Yuan Jing."

That's right, how could Zhang Mu be interested in these Yuanjing? Even if it was a large zombie swarm with four figures, it would probably not satisfy Zhang Mu's appetite.

If Wang Liang knew that Zhang Mu could easily deal with a large group of zombies by himself, and that the time he spent was only faster than theirs, his gold-rimmed glasses would probably fall to the ground.

Wang Liang shook his head bitterly. Sure enough, he had thought too much. He wanted to tie Zhang Mu deeper into his chariot, but he didn't expect that the huge profit he thought he had paid was not worth mentioning in Zhang Mu's eyes.

He was now very curious about what Zhang Mu wanted to do, so he looked at Zhang Mu with an inquiring look.

Zhang Mu naturally knew what he wanted to ask, but there was nothing to hide.

He looked towards the distant sky and said slowly, "I need all the mutant beasts that escaped. I need all their beast cores."

This time, Wang Liang was completely shocked by Zhang Mu's crazy idea. They were still worried that the mutant beasts that were driven out of Luoyang City would make a comeback, but now Zhang Mu actually wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop.

This idea was so outrageous that Wang Liang suddenly decided not to continue playing with Zhang Mu. He thought, would Zhang Mu need his help?

Zhang Mu seemed to have seen through Wang Liang's thoughts and said with a smile, "You don't need to send anyone. I can hunt mutant beasts by myself. You just need to find someone to help me find out the location and general situation of the mutant beasts. As for the reward, food, and standard weapons, I will give them to you according to the situation."

“There is no upper limit.”

These four words made Wang Liang, who originally wanted to quit, eyes turn red.
