Chapter 107 The Mastermind

Wei Gang obviously did not expect that Lin You would suddenly appear behind him.

After being stunned for a moment, he immediately rushed forward, and even the momentum he had just shown disappeared.

"I have something to talk to you about, and I'd like to take a look at the soldiers' training." Lin You glanced at the playground and said with a smile.

"If the Lord is looking for me, just send someone to tell me. Why would I bother you to come here in person?" Wei Gang said hurriedly.

"It's okay." Lin You waved his hand to interrupt him, "I just happened to have something to give you, so I came over by chance."

"Do you have something to give to your subordinates?" Wei Gang looked puzzled.

Lin You didn't say much and directly took out the sixth-level equipment he had just made from his personal space.

"This is level six equipment!"

At just one glance, Wei Gang recognized the equipment in Lin You's hand and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"What? Do you recognize this equipment?" Lin You asked in surprise.

"Of course I recognize it." Wei Gang nodded seriously. "Equipment of this level requires a sixth-level blacksmith to forge it. Even a sixth-level cultivator may not have one. Lord, is this... is this really for me?"

At the end of his speech, Wei Gang couldn't help swallowing, with an undisguised desire in his eyes.

Even the soldiers who were training on the playground gathered together.

When he saw the weapons and armor in Lin You's hands, he was shocked and exclaimed continuously.

It seems that this sixth-level equipment is still very rare for them.

But think about it, this thing cost Lin You a full 6,000 mana. If it can't even compare to ordinary weapons, wouldn't that be a joke?

Thinking of this, Lin You handed the two pieces of equipment to Wei Gang and said, "Take them. This is a reward for your contribution in stopping the troublemakers yesterday. It can also be regarded as a gift for your appointment as the commander of the guards, although it is a little late."

"Thank you for the reward, Lord!"

Faced with the temptation of the sixth-level equipment, Wei Gang was unable to resist after all. He knelt in front of Lin You with excitement and joy, and took the steel knife and armor from his hands.

"Get up. From now on, the security of Huangsha City will be handed over to you."

"I will do my best to live up to your high expectations!"

Wei Gang responded loudly, then slowly stood up and admired the equipment in his hand with great interest.

Then, he swung the steel knife and slashed at the wooden stake next to him. With a "crack", the wooden stake, which was as big as two people hugging together, broke instantly and was split into two sections, even bringing up a sharp blade light and splitting a huge hole in the ground.

"So strong!" Wei Gang looked at the steel knife in his hand in surprise.

The soldiers standing by were full of envy.

They had just been recruited by Wei Gang, and were still using the most common equipment, not even the first-level. How could they have seen such powerful weapons? They were all so shocked that they were speechless.

However, what shocked them even more was yet to come.

Lin You took out another set of equipment and handed it to Wei Gang: "I have another set of level 3 equipment here. You can give it to your subordinates who have performed well. I will get more when there are more resources in the future."

"Level 3 equipment!"

The soldiers' eyes widened instantly and their breathing became rapid.

This set of third-level equipment was actually a reward for them! Even Wei Gang was extremely surprised.

He looked at the equipment in Lin You's hand and said, "Lord, do you really want me to distribute this?"

"Yes, from now on, I will reward anyone who has made contributions to the territory with a set of equipment above level three. As for the rest, I will also get them some new equipment to wear. Otherwise, what will it look like to wear such tattered equipment?"

Lin You is quite clear about rewards and punishments when it comes to the people of Huangsha City. After all, there is no order without rules.

Since we want to develop the territory into a large city, we naturally have to start from the basics and make them feel more belonging to Huangsha City so that they can devote their heart and soul to the subsequent territory construction.

Territory construction is not just about building houses, it also includes building people's hearts!

This is also the reason why he is willing to spend so much magic energy.

Wei Gang didn't know the ins and outs of this, but seeing that Lin You valued them so much, he was naturally very excited.

"Don't worry, Lord! I will make sure it's properly arranged!"

Having said that, he took the equipment and kept it well.

Then, under the eager gazes of the soldiers, Lin You called him aside and began to ask him other questions.

"How's the investigation going on for the matter I asked you to send someone to investigate yesterday?" Lin You said straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, Wei Gang's expression instantly changed, and he whispered, "My Lord, the investigation is almost complete."

"According to the reports from those who came from Moyuan City, Moyuan City is now controlled by an insect lord. Like the lord, he arrived more than half a month ago."

"More than half a month? So he also came back alive from the battlefield of all worlds?" Lin You was very surprised.

"Yes, it is said that the lord's summoned creature is an insect similar to a worm queen, which can reproduce a large number of insects. It is quite powerful, and he has quite a few sixth-level practitioners under him. Conservative estimates suggest that there should be around forty-five."

"Forty-five?" Lin You frowned slightly.

Forty-five sixth-level practitioners, plus the insect queen that can reproduce insects, this is indeed a very powerful force. No wonder the other party would set their sights on them.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Oh, there's one more thing."

At this time, Wei Gang's voice came again.

"I heard from the merchants passing by that the old city lord forces that failed to seize power in Shuangye City also fled to Moyuan City later, so the relationship between Shuangye City and Moyuan City is very bad now."

"Five-leaf Castle? Did that lord come back alive as well?"

"Yes, but it seems that the losses are huge. We can basically rule out the suspicion that they sent people here to cause trouble and then framed Mo Yuan City. Moreover, I received news that someone said that he had seen the leader of those troublemakers in Mo Yuan City, and he was the subordinate of the Lord of Mo Yuan City!"

"Are you sure?" Lin You's eyes turned cold.

Wei Gang trembled when he saw this: "Confirmed! I have sent someone to confirm it, it cannot be wrong."

"Okay, go back first, I know what to do."

"Then I will take my leave first."

Feeling the murderous intent from Lin You, Wei Gang didn't dare to stay any longer. He said goodbye and turned back to the playground.

As for Lin You, he stood there motionless, lost in deep thought.

It has now been basically confirmed that the cultivators’ trouble was caused by Mo Yuan City.

As the ruler of Moyuan City, the insect lord must be involved.

Since the other party dared to blatantly injure his people, destroy his affiliated territories, and attempt to stir up conflicts between him and Xuanyang City, there was nothing for him to worry about.

He glanced at the sky and saw that it was just past noon, so he immediately mounted the Mu Ran Lion and headed back towards the territory.

What Lin You didn't expect was that just as he was rushing back, two reminders suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Congratulations, the Wood Shadow Dragon meets the conditions for upgrading to level 7. Upgrading requires consuming a level 6 territory essence. Do you want to upgrade? ]

[Congratulations, Mu Ranshi meets the conditions for upgrading to level 7. Upgrading requires consuming a level 6 territory essence. Would you like to upgrade? ]

"Upgraded?"

Lin You looked towards the territory in surprise. He didn't expect that two more types of soldiers had successfully been upgraded to level seven.

But if you think about it carefully, when he first arrived at the primitive continent, the first people he recruited seemed to be the Wood Shadow Dragon and the Wood Ran Lion.

Calculating the time, it's time to upgrade.

Without hesitation, he chose to upgrade and then quickly rushed back to the territory.
