The mayor looked at the expressionless Lin An and couldn't help but feel relieved when he realized that he didn't see any sullen expression.
It's exactly what I thought.
That's right.
His request was not excessive, especially since it was for everyone's benefit. Lin An would not dare to offend the public and reject him.
Big shots always take face into consideration. If he didn't get the mother seed, Lin An would not be able to explain it to his superiors.
Looking at the middle-aged woman who fantasized about becoming an awakened person, several awakened people behind the mayor suddenly nodded at him anxiously.
"Uncle! Us! Our officials!!"
Lowering his voice, a physique awakener swallowed dryly, thinking of the scene he had imagined when he and others were bragging.
Stand at the front.
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and waved his hand back vaguely, signaling to his nephew that there was no need to worry and he would mention whatever needed to be mentioned.
He simply pulled out a few awakened ones again and coughed twice:
"That, General Lin."
"There is another condition... Actually, it's not that big of a condition! That is, we fellow villagers can't fight monsters."
With a smile on his face, he patted his nephew's chest hard with an exaggerated expression:
"This young man is in great shape! He is also an Awakened One!"
"Look, everyone has a heart to serve the country. Why not arrange for this boy to be a battalion commander or company commander? Of course, it is best for a guard to follow you! He will not be worse than other awakened people! I think his physique
, it’s 12 o’clock!”
"Don't worry, he is definitely a good seedling. If you guide him carefully, he will definitely help you solve your problems!"
"Normal people, even four or five can't get close to him!"
As he spoke, he called out all of his own people. Anyone who was related by blood would praise them and spit:
"General Lin, I know it's very dangerous outside! But we people in Baishan Town are not afraid at all! You can let them be captains or company commanders or something like that, boldly let them fight monsters, even if they die on the battlefield, I will frown.
No wrinkles!"
Hearing his uncle praising himself in this way, the middle-aged man from the physique department was elated at first and grinned.
But when he heard that it was best to be a security guard, his face suddenly dropped.
Subconsciously, he blurted out:
"Uncle! I want to be a high official! Didn't we agree..."
Like him, several others were also anxious to speak.
What about dying in battle? What about fighting zombies? Are you kidding me? We have made such great achievements, why should we die!
The mayor's face froze, and he hurriedly grabbed his nephew and laughed with him. Looking at his group of relatives who couldn't hold their breath, a flash of anger flashed in his eyes.
These idiots!
Although the important officer is small, as long as he has soldiers, there will be no danger!
He thought very clearly that if he entered Long'an, the rewards he was about to receive would definitely not be enough. He must have the power in the hands of his own people, so as to ensure safety.
Even if he hasn't seen what's going on outside, he still knows the importance of military power.
Therefore, after thinking about it in various ways, he decided to cut it off and put down many conditions.
It's obviously unrealistic to be a high-ranking official, but it shouldn't be a big problem to be a company commander or battalion commander.
As for the awakened ones, the outside world is grabbing them everywhere.
Considering the importance of seeds, Lin An must have no choice but to agree.
After the farce was over, he felt certain after seeing that Lin An still had no expression.
Apparently, the first two items were normal requests, and it was difficult for this big shot to refuse.
After hesitating for a moment, thinking that he only had one chance, he licked his lips and touched the female seed again, intending to get some benefits for himself:
"General Lin, the previous conditions are actually because he wants to contribute to the country."
"Let's be honest, this country actually rewards individuals, right?"
During the pause, Lin An half-smiled, looking at the mayor as if watching a performance. He tilted his head slightly, indicating to the other party to continue speaking without beating around the bush.
He wanted to see what else these people wanted to do.
"Then I'll tell you straight."
The mayor's eyes flashed with deep greed, and even his heartbeat accelerated a little:
"I've heard that some awakened people are very strong, just like you."
"Everyone says that there is a kind of fruit called the psychic fruit, and you can gain certain attributes by eating it."
"You see, psychic fruits and psychic food are similar. We in Baishan Town also planted a lot of them before you came."
"It wouldn't be appropriate if all this was handed over to Long An, wouldn't it?"
"We won't take advantage of you. Why don't we exchange one pound of grain for one piece of fruit?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin An casually glanced at the psychic crops planted around Baishan Town. At a glance, they weighed no less than tens of thousands of kilograms.
With a chuckle, he looked into those eyes and said lightly:
"So, I need to supply you with thousands of psychic fruits?"
"ah!"
The middle-aged man was delighted when he heard this, but pretended to be scared and waved his hands repeatedly:
"Don't dare!"
"1000! 1000 is enough!"
Being carried away by the psychic fruit, the middle-aged man was breathing rapidly. He had never dealt with Lin An, so he only assumed that Lin An agreed with him.
However, thinking that if he wanted too much, it might not be good, he still felt heartbroken and only planned to ask for 1,000 pieces.
Divide one portion, and the rest is enough for yourself.
A brief pause.
Yuanfeng on the side sneered and subconsciously looked at Lin An Chuanyin:
"Master Lin An, did you see it? Haha..."
On the other side, Mo Ling looked at the group of people who were whispering together as if they were looking at a madman.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have imagined that someone could be so stupid.
Doesn’t anyone in this group of people know the value of spiritual fruits?
1,000 pieces? Even if you sell the Korean War Zone, it may not be worth this money!
In the strange atmosphere, before Lin An could speak, the survivors behind the mayor heard that the middle-aged man had begun to seek benefit for themselves, and the crowd suddenly became restless.
"There are still us! There are still us!"
"Mayor! Let's move to Long'an. Does Long'an have to compensate for it? This was how demolition was done before. One house was replaced with two, and cash was given back!"
..
"Yes! Let's go to Long'an where to live! General Lin, you have to make the decision for us. Each of us will be given one... no, two houses! Just add more equipment! Otherwise we won't move!"
..
"As long as you have a place to live! General Lin! I also grew food, so you have to give me the fruit too!"
"I watered the land, and that large piece of land belongs to me, General Lin! You can't just give it to the mayor! I want 100 too!"
The crowd was in chaos, raising their hands, you said something to me,
Driven by their emotions, everyone looked at the mayor angrily, and then moved closer to Lin An with some fanaticism, reaching out their hands frantically.
It was as if he was asking for help, arguing with each other about the reward he deserved.
"Out of 1,000, at least 200 are mine! General Lin! I don't want the fruits, just give me some of the best equipment! I want the legendary ones!"
"Are there 200 of you? Your land has taken over my house! General Lin, don't listen to his nonsense! I want fruit, so give it to me!"
"General, general! I don't want fruit, I want a high official!"
...
Fanaticism spread, and the mayor, who was squeezed behind the crowd, looked angrily at the crowd begging for rewards.
Don’t these idiots come one by one?
He still hasn’t finished raising the conditions!
Afraid that someone would take away the reward first, he was so frightened and angry that he desperately wanted to push away the crowd and get next to Lin An to say something.
However, the next second.
A cold voice resounded throughout the audience:
"The agreement you made with Long An was very clear."
"Take you out and give the seeds to Long An."
The chaotic crowd suddenly stopped after the sound was heard, but in an instant, the stunned expressions on everyone's faces were replaced by anger.
Didn’t you already agree to our conditions?
Is this big shot planning to go back on his word!?
Completely forgetting their original fear of the black mist, under long-term illusions, they had long regarded the mother seed as capital for prosperity and wealth after they left.
The mother's seed was exchanged, so they said. If Lin An hadn't come, they might really just want to rely on the mother's seed to ask the awakened people from the outside to save them.
However, when going out becomes "easy", how can they tolerate that they can't get anything?
With a startled look on his face, the mayor, who was frozen in the crowd, subconsciously raised his head and shouted:
"General Lin! That's not what you said!"
"The female seed belongs to all of us! We don't want anything!"
He touched the mother seed in his pocket and instinctively wanted to rely on his only capital to threaten.
Like a Pandora's box being opened, the middle-aged man who squeezed in front of Lin An and had imagined going out countless times could hear Lin An's tone of voice that seemed to disagree with their conditions.
His face was red, and he raised his fists angrily:
"You Long An want to go back on your word!? Want to rob!? The seeds are ours! If you don't give me anything, this is robbing! Either give me the fruit, or destroy the seeds and everyone will starve to death!"
"Yes! You are bandits! Promise to us!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the mayor, who had the same idea, was about to add something when he heard Lin An's cold voice again:
"Hand over the seeds and I will take you out. If you want to live a good life, work in Long'an!"
"Last chance, hand it over now!"
Frozen in place, listening to Lin An's cold tone, the mayor felt as if he had been given a slap in the face, and his whole body became cold.
The other party did not agree to his conditions!
However, he couldn't let go of the female seed in his pocket.
This is not only a seed, but also the hope that he will rely on in the future! To put it bluntly, he has thought very clearly from the beginning to the end. Even if Lin An agrees to the conditions, he will not hand over the mother seed. He will only
He would let his cronies farm the land, otherwise what would he do with so many people!?
No matter how stupid he is, he can still think that once he really hands over the mother's seed, he will have no value at all.
In an instant, the desire to escape arose, and he did not believe that Lin An dared to take action against him at the cost of destroying his mother's species.
At the same time, the physique town citizen who was causing the most fun looked at Lin An as if his illusion was shattered:
"Folks! This guy is a liar! Long An wants to steal our things!!! They won't supply us with anything!"
"Don't be afraid, guys! Let's make a fuss together! There are so many of us, he won't dare to take action!"
The crowd was so angry that the aroused crowd could no longer maintain their rationality and cursed loudly.
"Give me back the fruit you gave us as compensation!"
"Liar! You must have swallowed our reward! We are going to sue you!"
"Send it to the channel! Lin An is a liar! He is a robber!"
"Destroy the seeds! Let's all starve to death together! We are not afraid of him!"
...
Listening to the crowd roaring like zombies in his ears, Lin An's eyes were full of coldness.
Although he is not a good person, he will not kill people and seize seeds from the beginning.
But now it seems that the other party has "decided" on him.
The opportunity has been given.
In this case...
"Give me the fruit! Give it back to me!! I'm going to sue your superiors!"
With an angry face, he rushed through the crowd.
Looking at the middle-aged man who rushed in front of him in the crowd, Lin An raised his hand and pointed out expressionlessly:
"Okay, I'll give it to you."
"call out!!"
"boom!"
There was a flash of white light, and under the blessing of arcane energy, a psychic fruit burst out at super high speed and penetrated the man's head within 0.01 seconds.
The blood flowers are brought out like splashed ink.
In an instant, the forward body suddenly froze on the spot, and the tilted upper body still maintained a running posture.
"Plop"
A second later, the body, whose brain tissue was shattered, fell to the ground like a rag.
There was silence, and the world seemed to be quiet for a second.
The next moment, the crowd who came back to their senses looked at Lin An who put down his arms in horror, trembling all over.
As if being hit by cold water under the forest, one after another screams echoed throughout the town.
"boom!!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
...
In the town wrapped in black mist, streaks of red blood mist spread, bringing a long-lost bright color.
Standing behind Lin An, Xiao Mo Ling blinked in a daze.
