Some people are still alive, but in fact they are already dead.
A castle lord in name only, nothing!
Lin Yan was in a daze: "I seem to be wrong."
When he first started working with Zhang Guangmu, Lin Yan was very confident and felt that he had an absolute advantage in the power struggle.
Even just relying on experience can make up for the gap in strength between the two sides.
As long as Zhang Guangmu can taste the taste of power, he can gradually make him inseparable from him.
But as time passed, Lin Yan suddenly realized...
Zhang Guangmu didn't want to play with him within the existing rules of the game!
"What exactly does he want?"
Lin Yan couldn't understand.
What did Zhang Guangmu do after he took office?
Open the supply warehouse and distribute free money and food to all residents of Flame Wolf Castle every day.
Distribute all the flame wolves in the wolf den to those of the right age to form bonds, catalyzing the creation of a large number of new wolf masters.
Using the power of the deputy fort master, he forcibly promoted the status and treatment of craftsmen to no less than that of wolf masters, and seemed to intend to teach the methods of making fire artifacts...
"This approach..."
"He has never thought about taking the position of deputy castle master!"
Lin Yan couldn't understand and was furious: "That guy Tianguang is no different from a lunatic!"
In addition, Lin Yan's scalp feels numb just thinking about all kinds of trivial things, and he is too lazy to pay more attention to them.
On the surface, everything Zhang Guangmu did seems to be able to explain his truth.
It's normal for a newcomer to want to support his own power, and Lin Yan can understand it.
But these three major events alone are enough to overturn the entire situation of Flame Wolf Castle for hundreds of years!
Let the mud-legged people down there be fed and clothed, and if they do nothing every day, they will get enough food and money...
It's okay for a short time, but after a long time, who would be willing to work?
With no one farming or hunting, what do the noble wolf masters eat and drink?
Shouldn't the wolf master be allowed to go to the fields to dig for food by himself?
It is also very logical to cultivate your own team of direct wolf masters.
However, directly pulling out all the flame wolves in the wolf den is simply fishing for nothing, short-sighted, and makes no sense at all!
This is digging into the roots of Flame Wolf Castle!
On the contrary, Lin Yan didn't take the matter of improving the status of a craftsman very seriously. He only felt that Zhang Guangmu's young mind and his actions were all based on personal preferences, which would definitely cause counterattacks from the wolf masters in the future, and even the direct wolf masters he had trained personally.
They may not be on his side.
Lin Yan doesn’t understand fighting, but he understands people’s hearts and humanity!
On this day, Lin Yan finally couldn't suppress his anger and asked Zhang Guangmu: "What on earth are you going to do?"
"In my opinion, if you continue to do this, you are digging your own grave!"
"If you don't correct the chaos in time, if things go on like this, the entire Flame Wolf Castle will be destroyed in your hands!"
Lin Yan even had some suspicions that the young man in front of him wanted the position of deputy castle master simply to make it easier to lift the table.
He will smash the entire Flame Wolf Castle to pieces!
When he said this, the Lord of the fort said "carelessness" in his heart, and became increasingly wary of Zhang Guangmu, but on the surface he acted anxious and worried for Zhang Guangmu.
Zhang Guangmu heard Lin Yan's speech and looked at him up and down.
Too tender.
Although they are experienced seniors, subconscious actors rarely train their own [acting skills] specifically.
After all, as long as your subconscious mind and abilities are strong enough, you can carve out a way through recklessness.
As a veteran professional villain, Lin Yan's acting skills are pretty good compared to most other subliminal actors.
From Zhang Guangmu's perspective, the other party should only have the ability of [Acting 1] in the evaluation system of "The Book of Interpretation".
But……
In front of Zhang Guangmu in [Acting 2], Lin Yan's false feelings could not cover up the situation at all.
Zhang Guangmu also didn't like to make excuses with others, so he immediately grinned and said with a smile: "Don't think too much."
"You think I'm destroying Flame Wolf Castle, but I don't think so."
As he spoke, Zhang Guangmu raised his right hand high and slowly closed his fingers: "I want to lift it higher and reach a position that symbolizes peace."
"If you want to do this, you must smash the existing order and rebuild the world!"
"Only by absorbing enough nutrients from the rotting corpses can the new Flame Wolf Castle thrive and turn into a truly behemoth!"
"As long as you and I join hands and work together, we will be able to clean up the universe, restore peace, and completely calm this troubled world!"
Lin Yan is quite old, but when he heard Zhang Guangmu's words, he still had some troubles in his heart.
But he soon realized something was wrong.
Lin Yan became angry: "These are all empty words and clichés! They sound beautiful, but in fact they have no content!"
"Stop treating me like an idiot!"
"I'm not a mediocre person who will be treated like a hawk or a dog if I'm fooled by just a few words!"
"You have to remember that I am the nominal master of Yanlang Castle!"
Hearing this, Zhang Guangmu's eyes widened and he looked him up and down with surprise: "Ah~ I underestimated you."
"Originally, I thought that guys who can send people to assassinate their outstanding sons should be the kind of short-sighted fools..."
Seeing Lin Yan's face gradually turn red, Zhang Guangmu waved his hand: "I'm not mocking you. What I just said is true."
As he spoke, Zhang Guangmu spread his left hand in front of Lin Yan: "If I said that things like the 'Flame Artifact' can be mass-produced and everyone in Yanlang Fort can have one, do you think those problems will still be problems?"
Lin Yan's pupils shrank slightly and his breathing stagnated for a moment.
When he first recommended Zhang Guangmu to be the deputy castle master, there were many veteran wolf masters and Yanlang Guards in Yanlang Castle who complained about it, and Zhang Guangmu was very unhappy with him.
But Zhang Guangmu's method of dealing with opponents was extremely simple and crude - he would give a "fire artifact" to anyone who could win over him on the spot.
Wealth and silk are alluring. In the Flame Wolf Castle, apart from the ownerless Wolf King, what other benefit is greater than the Flame Divine Artifact?
I'm afraid there is no more.
No matter how stupid you are, you can see that the reason why Zhang Guangmu was able to successfully ascend to the position of deputy fort master was not because the fort master Lin Yan wanted to set up a target to distract conflicts, but because he had no choice but to do so.
In the final analysis, it is because Zhang Guangmu has mastered the great equipment called the "Fire Artifact"!
Once an ordinary civilian obtains a fire artifact, he will immediately have the power to rival the Fire Wolf...
This is simply a subversion!
No matter what the wolf masters think deep down, no one who takes advantage of Zhang Guangmu can openly oppose him.
Even when Zhang Guangmu occasionally issued some not-too-excessive orders, everyone would rush to do it in order to cater to this upstart, hoping to become a popular person around the deputy fortress "Tianguang".
After all, Lin Yan, the leader of Yanlang Castle, is now very old, and he is so jealous that he even wants to assassinate his own son. It is obvious that he will not be in that position for a long time.
Some people with a more sensitive sense of smell gradually realized that the fort master Lin Yan had actually become the puppet of the deputy fort advocate Guang Mu!
As the news of the death of the Golden Neck Wolf King "accidentally spread", Lin Yan lost all his prestige and completely lost the ability to compete with Zhang Guangmu on the same stage. The only person he could rely on was the empty "Lord of the Castle".
Famous.
"You...how can you let it go?!"
Lin Yan looked at Zhang Guangmu as if he were a madman: "Now everyone in Yanlang Castle knows that my other half has died in the battle, and I am no longer qualified to compete with you for power."
"Even if you do nothing, in a few years, the position of castle master will naturally fall on you."
"Why do you do such superfluous things?"
"If everyone has such power, how can you secure your position as the castle master?"
Zhang Guangmu responded calmly: "The news that the Golden Neck Flame Wolf King died in battle was spread by your son Lin Xuan."
"The drama about you two being a loving father and a filial son actually has nothing to do with me."
"I even arranged for someone to help you refute the rumors. Unfortunately, facts speak louder than words. In the face of the truth, no matter how vigorous the propaganda is, it is meaningless."
"As for whether I can secure my position as Lord of Flame Wolf Castle?"
Speaking of this, Zhang Guangmu chuckled: "I never thought about taking this position..."
"I made it very clear from the beginning."
"What I want is world peace."
"As long as we have peace in our hands, there will be no more orphans like me in this world."
"In order to achieve this ultimate goal, the first step I have to take is to make everyone in this world look like wolves!"
Lin Yan was dumbfounded when he heard this.
From the first time he met Zhang Guangmu, he felt that he and this young man were not on the same journey.
Now it seems that people's intuition is sometimes really accurate.
Everyone has completely different pursuits, how can we talk together?
If he had Zhang Guangmu's ability, he would never do such a thankless thing!
Although he never admitted it, Lin Yan was convinced of Zhang Guangmu's abilities and methods deep down.
"You can't get peace by doing this!"
Lin Yan didn't know that the thread in his mind was wrong, so he warned Zhang Guangmu earnestly: "That will only be counterproductive, causing endless chaos and endless disaster!"
"Listen to my advice, if you really want peace..."
"Then ban the 'Fire Artifact', and find a way to reduce the number of wolf masters, and then concentrate all the force in your own hands, and use your own power to coerce the world. Whoever dares to cause trouble, the whole clan will be killed! Time!
For a long time, the world will naturally be at peace!"
Zhang Guangmu was really surprised this time.
He could feel that Lin Yan's speech was indeed sincere and came from the bottom of his heart, without any hint of acting.
and……
What Lin Yan said does make sense!
Unfortunately, Zhang Guangmu decided to learn from Chu Fan's advanced experience and draw strength from his role model.
He looked at Lin Yan with cold eyes. Chu Ba was possessed by the drama spirit, his temperament was controlled, and he snorted coldly: "No one understands peace better than me!"
"Besides..."
"The advice of a loser has no weight at all!"
"In my fight with you, I have always been the winner."
"It turns out that I'm always on the right path."
"And, I will always be right!"
"Everyone living in this world should have the power to protect themselves."
Having said this, Zhang Guangmu's fingertips burst into a ball of bright golden flames. He held his hands upside down with a calm expression: "The weather is getting colder, and the era of wolf masters has passed."
Lin Yan was left speechless by this "I won't listen" and he wished he could just take a knife and stab the thug to death on the spot.
An idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought...
The word "sky light", in addition to referring to "natural light of wisdom", can also be used as a metaphor for "monarch".
Although Zhang Guangmu is young, he has gradually gained the aura of a monarch.
The path he has chosen cannot be easily changed by others!
Looking at Lin Yan, who was a bit autistic, Zhang Guangmu was about to say something when his heart suddenly moved.
