    Chapter 51: A Major Decision


    While Zhang Mu was immersed in his joy, Little ck had wiped out the remaining walking dead ande to Zhang Mu to im its credit.


    “Did I do a good job?”


    A proud voice that echoed in Zhang Mu’s mind. Zhang Mu felt angry but also amused as he couldn’t criticize Little ck’s arrogance. This attack gave him a useful warning indeed.


    Therefore, Zhang Mu didn’t hit Little ck nor did he even refute it this time. He said whileughing, “It’s all thanks to you. I owe you this time. Tomorrow, you’ll get what you want.”


    Then Zhang Mu murmured, “Little ck learned nothing but bragging. I have never heard of a mutated animal that would take on its owner’s character after signing a blood contract. Oh, but, I’m not that kind of person anyway.”


    Since Zhang Mu refused to recognize that he was the same as Little ck, he just let it go and said, “You pick out the crystals from these bodies first and just put them in a pile, I’ll collect themter. It will take a lot of time to store them all out if they are still in the bodies.”


    Lured in by Zhang Mu’s promise, although Little ck knew there were over 1,500 bodies on the ground, it still worked hard without anyint as it flew to the end of the street and began to pick out crystals.


    After all, what Zhang Mu promised to Little ck was so great that it could help it reach the


    second rank. If Little ck depended on itself, it would take two months, maybe even longer, to reach the second rank and it would necessitate a lot of suitable top-ss beast cores. It would be difficult to evolve without Zhang Mu’s help.


    In fact, Zhang Mu knew there was no system that could allow him to exchange for cores of different nature in the Era stores. However, he didn’t lie, because after thinking twice, he decided to give Little ck something much better — a bottle of second-rank evolving potion!


    It was an evolving potion for first-ranked evolvers that could increase the sess rate of evolution, but it also worked on animals.


    The second-ranked potion Zhang Mu had bought from the Era merchant was desired by many evolvers because it was suitable for everyone! That was to say, all evolvers and even non-humans could use it to increase chances to evolve to the second-rank. Moreover, evolvers who possessed several abilities could still use this potion to promote their abilities, even though the effects would be divided amongst the different powers.


    The Era stores would open the beast core exchange function one yearter, but in most cases, evolvers during the early times of the new era that couldn’t find suitable cores would refine themselves using unsuitable ones despite the risks.


    Evolvers that do so run the risk of dying because their bodies are too weak, but they still had a try and seek that 30 percent sess rate in evolving as suitable cores were truly difficult to find.


    After all, a higher rank meant more powerful abilities, exalted power, and influence, all of which are


    are a great temptation in this dog-eat-dog world.


    In the first year of the new era, even in therge gathering ces, the number of top-ss beast cores that appeared could only meet the need of the top evolvers. Thatsted till Era stores started to sell beast cores to the sub-merchants.


    Once people found that sub-merchant had evolving potions, they started buying it at all costs and even tried to kill the merchants in order to steal it.


    Because of this, sub-merchants never dared to openly sell evolving potions unless they had the strength to protect themselves.


    In order to exchange for the evolving potion, Zhang Mu nearly spent all his savings. However, he will give this treasure to Little ck once he made sure that he could buy more potions from the Era store in Xi’an tonight.


    Zhang Mu thought that he could promote his strength and agility only if he dosed this potion because he didn’t have an awakening ability. It was the painful reality.


    But if Little ck, who had reached the peak of the first rank, drank this potion, along with the various beast cores it had eaten, it might be able to break through to the second rank.


    The was thing was, unlike human beings, the advancement period of mutated animals was uncertain. Zhang Mu needed Little ck to protect Yuan Rui and look for walking dead. If it started the process of evolution now, he didn’t know when it would seed.


    If he could make a deal with the Era merchant in Xi’an sessfully and get some new era goods that could boost his power, Little ck can advance without worrying


    without worrying about anything.


    There was no need to think any more, Zhang Mu led Yuan Rui by the arm and started to collect the crystals Little ck had put in a pile. All the crystals were absorbed into his Merchant’s Ring by the time he put his arm down.


    This was another advantage of enhancing the Merchant’s Ring. The opening time had been shortened by a lot.


    Little ck picked out crystals at the same speed as Zhang Mu collected them. It only took eight minutes for Zhang Mu to collect all the crystals. As for the walking dead’s bodies, Zhang Mu had no interest in them at all.


    Now, even Little ck had high demands when ites to food. It didn’t eat the first-ranked walking dead because it disliked the smell. Little ck hadpletely forgotten how happily it used to eat the walking dead’s flesh and blood. Zhang Mu’s Bloodvine Lotus was even pickier. It had not spared a nce at these bodies with low nutrition and insignificant energy.


    Zhang Mu looked back at the chaotic pedestrian mall and then at his well-stocked ring. Plus the two thousand crystals and one hundred mutated monkey’s cores he had collected before, Zhang Mu had confidence in making a deal with the Era merchant sessfully.


    “Era merchant of Xi’an? I’ll wait and see whether this deal can move you or not.”


    However, Zhang Mu didn’t know that in a far corner, a person had witnessed what his actions and fled with fear.


    In an unspectacr hotel, a group of people were smoking.


    It’s no one else but Lin Shui and his fellows. The strong man next to Lin Shui to Lin Shui dropped his cigarette and said impatiently, “Cousin, we asked Hao Zi to follow that guy. It has already been one hour, why hasn’t hee back yet?”


    He and Lin Shui were cousins, but they were very different in character.


    Lin Shui didn’t answer him and continued to smoke while leaning on the sofa.


    All of a sudden, Lin Shui raised his head and looked towards the door, which scared the other people as they aimed at the door with weapons in their hands.


    The small fellow who had peeped at Zhang Mu stumblingly ran towards Lin Shui. He ran so fast that he slid down murmuring, “All died, all died.”


    The strong man asked, “Hao Zi, what happened? What’s wrong with you? Why are you so scared?”


    The small fellow called Hao Zi kept murmuring as if he had lost his mind and didn’t hear what the man had said.


    Lin Shui’s cousin got angry. He pped at his face hard and shouted, “What’s wrong with you? Make yourself understandable.”


    The pain woke Hao Zi up. Staring at Lin Shui while a hand went to cover his face, he said with while trembling, “Brother Lin, thousands of walking dead had been wiped out by that man! Even the crazy man who liked to cut people’s heads had also been killed by him!”


    After hearing what Hao Zi said, the people present all gasped at the same time as they thought of the violent battlefield.


    That man wiped out thousands of walking deads in one and a half hours? He even killed that crazy beast in human skin?


    This time, even a steady man like Lin Shui got nervous.
