Chapter 291: Far Thoughts
Zhang Mu didn’t know how to help the mutated wolfhound. Accumulating energy was not a problem, but this kind of insight was really beyond his reach.
Comforting the sad wolfdog, Zhang Mu and Yuan Rui went inside to discuss his future plans.
“What, uncle, you’re going to Inner Mongolia City? The area it covers is too big, which specific outpost city are you going to?”
Looking at Yuan Rui’s surprised face, Zhang Mu said slowly, “There is a reason for going there. I think there’s no challenge in running through nearby provinces. I want to see if we can meet new survivors and help expand human territory if possible.
As for the Era Merchant mission, I’ll accompany you back to Xi An City to deliver the task at number thirty-six, then we’ll head to Yulin City, bordering Ordos City.
Finally, straight to the final destination, Hohhot City!”
Sparkling with excitement in his eyes, Zhang Mu saw Inner Mongolia City as the largest territory, with the most opportunities and risks, which was exactly what he desired.
Yuan Rui obediently nodded. She had been to some of the cities she had traveled to with Zhang Mu before, so she had some impressions.
However, now in this apocalyptic world, having to go to a strange city all of a sudden made the young girl a little anxious.
Looking at Zhang Mu’s sparkling eyes under the lights, this man gave her a sense of security. Yuan Rui had completely forgotten that she was now an awakened evolver with second-rank abilities.
Her awakening ability, not to mention healing, even the quality of her soul flame surpassed Zhang Mu, who began his journey later. The true meaning of the fire phoenix lay in her mental power, ready to unleash at any moment.
Yet, in front of Zhang Mu, she was still a helpless little girl, losing her strength and unable to open a bottle cap.
With admiration overflowing, this must be the girl who can’t help but fall in love.
Feeling Yuan Rui’s gaze, Zhang Mu gently stroked her hair and kissed her on the forehead as she watched him with an adorable look.
Locking eyes, both feeling secure, not just Yuan Rui, but Zhang Mu’s heart, too, was content.
Seeing Yuan Rui feeling sleepy, Zhang Mu embraced her as they fell asleep together for the night.
Yuan Rui slept soundly in Zhang Mu’s arms, but Zhang Mu couldn’t calm his mind to fall asleep the whole night.
Zhang Mu and Yuan Rui were thinking on different levels, Yuan Rui thought Zhang Mu was just going on a long trip, maybe even considering it a honeymoon vacation.
But Zhang Mu had a lot on his mind, the special mission that No. 37 told him about, which could lead to a promotion to Senior Era Sub-merchant, had deeply impressed and absorbed all his attention.
This mission, if left to the very end, would be even less likely to be completed.
The only chance is now!
Zhang Mu’s current advantage is slowly fading away. After the first quarter, a large number of high-quality Era Sub-merchants will quickly emerge like mushrooms after the rain.
Moreover, these future Era Sub-merchants not only have a high level of sensitivity to business opportunities after understanding the rules of Era Store, but also their own awakening abilities are extraordinary.
Zhang Mu’s temporary lead may soon be reduced to only a 20% discount advantage for first-ranked transactions as his prophetic information weakens.
The 20% discount advantage, seen by those who may already have a strong sense of smell for business or have a significant advantage in trading due to their awakening abilities in various locations, can be easily matched or even surpassed in minutes.
Because of the memories during this period, Zhang Mu is beginning to forget.
He is starting to forget!
What Zhang Mu has always feared is about to happen soon.
As his prophetic abilities weaken to nothing, his real advantage in epoch trading is simply not enough compared to those professional talents.
Once he becomes mediocre, the resources of No. 37 will be shared, making it very difficult to achieve Zhang Mu’s goals.
As time passed, he knew that if he didn’t become a Senior Era Sub-merchant soon, a critical moment would come when humans were left far behind by mutant beasts and zombies.
By then, it would be too late to turn back. Besides, Zhang Mu alone couldn’t bear the burden of an entire race.
He kept thinking about finding rare treasures and legendary resources to become a peak figure among human evolvers.
However, he believed it would take a long time before he completed the Senior Era Sub-merchant task, and becoming stronger was inevitable to surpass other groups at that crucial moment.
Now he had found a perfect opportunity to strengthen his influence and arm his people to the teeth.
That opportunity was to unlock the Senior Era Sub-merchant’s powers.
By utilizing its vast resources, he could narrow the gap in combat abilities between human ordinary evolvers and mutant beasts.
The strength of an individual could never compare to the strength of a whole group.
The outcome was truly crucial.
In the future, humans lost the great Earth dominance and ended up like this.
Before Zhang Mu’s choice to become strong was out of necessity, but now his goal is to complete this special promotion task before the time arrives.
Either get promoted and gain a large amount of resources!
Or if he can’t complete it, he will settle for improving his strength further, but the possibility of humans losing is still high, that’s an overall assessment.
This time, the outcome is determined in one game! Zhang Mu wants to change history!
Humans can’t lose anymore.
So, just like that, because of holding Yuan Rui in his arms emitting a healing gentle aura, surrounded by a precious peaceful atmosphere, Zhang Mu spent a whole night thinking on the surface.
