Chapter 303 [Ring of Destiny]

Lin Mu never touched the villages and towns outside the city, because it was a taboo. If discovered by some aborigines with ulterior motives, they would be executed for treason.

Even if it was Zhang Jue's Taiping Dao, he did not dare to recruit soldiers in the villages and towns openly, and could only buy the hearts of the people in secret.

Now that Lin Mu has obtained the Sima of the Junbie Department, he can ignore this restriction and recruit soldiers wherever he wants! This is the function that Lin Mu wants most.

The [Dragon Court Soft Position] in the system announcement is a system for officials of the Yun Dynasty to share the country's fortune! The basis is the size of the official position.

According to real history, the official positions of the Han Dynasty are from high to low, first grade, second grade, third grade..., eighth grade, and ninth grade.

For example, [Three Dukes] are first-grade soft-rank officials; for example, the county magistrate is an eighth-grade soft-rank official!

And the county lieutenant is the lowest soft-rank official, a ninth-grade sesame official!

Lin Mu's other department Sima, whether at the county or county level, has not entered the Dragon Court soft position.

Lin Mu has a plan for official positions. It is not that the sooner you enter the soft position, the better, but the one that suits your own development path is the kingly way!

After seeing the system announcement, the only thing that Lin Mu was interested in was the special building blueprint that the system rewarded to Ye Nantian. He ignored everything else.

"My lord, I didn't expect that this county's other department Sima would be so easy to get. Then can the second legion of the territory, the Qinghu Legion, be expanded to 200,000?" Yu Jin sat next to Lin Mu and recalled this trip with emotion.

"Yes, it can be drawn from the first legion [True Dragon Legion]. Anyway, the first legion will be an auxiliary legion in the future. If there is a legion order to establish a formal legion, the choice is also a training and auxiliary type legion." Lin Mu smiled slightly.

"Then my lord, can I go back to my hometown to recruit brave men with Taishan spearman qualifications?" Zang Ba next to him was also very concerned about Lin Mu's promise to the third legion.

"Xuan Gao, it's too early! Wait until Xu Zhao's rebellion is quelled before recruiting soldiers. This battle needs your high-end combat power." Lin Mu could understand Zang Ba's feelings, but he didn't agree.

"According to the strategies of Cao Sima, Sun Sima and others in this meeting, Xu Zhao must have reached the end of his road." Yun Wu said happily.

"It may not be the end of his road. I always feel that Xu Zhao will not fail so easily." Lin Mu frowned and said thoughtfully.

"If we look at Xu Zhao's current military strength, Zhuji City and Yuyao City must be lost, so that there will be two armies threatening Shanyin City. As for Wushang City, to be honest, I can't see the final result!" Yu Jin said softly.

"And, as a kingdom with an orthodox way of casting, Xu Zhao must have a lot of hidden power."

"Huh?... My lord, someone is following us!" Yu Jin felt that someone was secretly following them while he was talking, and frowned and said.

In the carriage, Yu Jin had the strongest sense, and no one else felt it.

Cui Wu, who was standing next to him, heard Yu Jin's words and immediately stuck his head out of the carriage without any doubt, looking at the crowd on the street behind, wanting to see who was staring at the carriage.

However, they were disappointed. The busy streets were so lively that it was hard to tell clearly.

"Haha, this was expected! No need to look, let them follow!" After Lin Mu met Dian Wei and was targeted by Zhou Cang, he already knew that these tails would appear.

"Do you want them?" Zang Ba wiped his neck with his right hand, with a murderous look on his face.

Although these followers did not have the right to speak at the meeting, they were stared at fiercely by Zhou Cang behind Lin Mu, which made them very impatient.

The tails now must have been sent by Zhou Cang.

"This may be Zhou Cang's method. That fierce general Dian Wei should not do this." These days, Lin Mu is also somewhat "familiar" with Dian Wei. He knows that he is hostile to them, but he is very generous and calm, unlike Zhou Cang, who shows hostility on his face, as if he is afraid that others don't know.

Dian Wei is also a generous man. If they were not serving different masters, they would have been able to drink and talk happily!

"Maybe they are from the secret army of Taiping Dao! Do you think they will attack us?" Lin Mu asked with a smile without any tension.

"These assassins hiding in the dark will definitely attack if they have the chance!" Yu Jin said firmly.

"If they attack, let me do it. I haven't been active for a long time! Hehe..." The rough Zang Ba laughed confidently.

Everyone around him chuckled, not worried about the attack at all.

"Let's not give them a chance. Now we are a little afraid of Dian Wei. Don't force him to take action." Lin Mu said.

Dian Wei is a god general. Lin Mu is very clear about his cruelty. Others may just think he is powerful, but they don't think he is almost invincible in single combat.

Lin Mu is not afraid of death, but he doesn't want to die so cowardly.

"My lord, is this Dian Wei the super general who was shining in the world before the Seven Killing Stars?" Hearing Lin Mu's words of fear, He Yuan, an earlier member of the territory, asked in a serious tone.

"That's right. I divined before the tenth day that the Taiping Sect has a super general. It must be him!"

"No wonder!" He Yuan then told Yu Jin and other later comers about the situation. They probably simply thought it was a star phenomenon and did not think of the birth of a god.

"Let's do this, Xuan Gao, Cui Wu, you follow me and return to the Great Wilderness Territory. Wen Ze, you take He Yuan and Yun Wu to Juzhang City, prepare to command 200,000 troops, march from Juzhang, and attack Yuyao City. It may take five days to march from Juzhang to Yuyao. During this time, I will go back to the territory to deal with some things, and then rush over to meet you." Lin Mu instructed.

He returned to the territory because his reputation accumulated recently has reached 600,000, which can be used to buy the mysterious item!

He must accumulate a huge wave of reputation now, otherwise he will suffer when he subdues the gods. He doesn't want his reputation to become negative.

And Lin Mu has already thought of a way to accumulate huge reputation!

"Yes! Lord!" Yu Jin and others received the order.

"He Yuan, you must learn well when you follow Wen Ze. He is both civil and military, and his battlefield planning and layout are also extraordinary. It is worth learning from you." Lin Mu said to He Yuan gently, hoping that He Yuan can also grow slowly and not stand still.

"I will!" He Yuan nodded heavily.

"Okay! We've reached the teleportation array, let's get off!"

After that, the troops were divided into two groups based on the destination of the teleportation array.

Lin Mu chose Dongye County, and Yu Jin chose Juzhang County.

After Lin Mu and Zang Bayi teleported back to Dongye County, they summoned the tall and mighty dragon-scale horse without any scruples, and disappeared in the county like a gust of wind...

...

After returning to the Great Wilderness Territory, Lin Mu went straight to the True Dragon Pavilion, where Yuan Zhi, the fate merchant, was waiting for him.

The existence of the fate merchant did help Lin Mu a lot in the early stage, and also helped a lot in forging exclusive magic weapons and taming Wu Ba, but the price was a bit expensive!

As soon as the dusty Lin Mu and the other two entered the True Dragon Pavilion, they saw Yuan Zhi looking forward to it.

"Yuan Zhi, long time no see!" Lin Mu chuckled.

"My lord, you are really a dragon that can only be seen from the head but not the tail!" Yuan Zhi smiled bitterly and said helplessly.

The number of times he had met Lin Mu was really few and far between.

His journey as a merchant, in the early stage, must rely on Lin Mu. At present, he is only a destiny merchant of the Xuan level. If he reaches the level of the Earth level, he can leave the territory and go out to collect reputation!

But what makes him depressed is that this Earth-level merchant is really far away from him. The lord Lin Mu is surprisingly "stingy" and holds the reputation in his hands tightly.

"As soon as I saw you, I knew that my reputation would shrink! Of course I don't want to see you!" Lin Mu teased.

"Lord, you are joking. This time, the lord invited me here, I guess you have collected enough reputation of 500,000!" Yuan Zhi smiled.

A reputation transaction of 500,000 should increase a lot of merchant experience, but it is still a long way from the Earth-level destiny merchant.

"Yes, I have collected enough, plus the expenses you spent on us to subdue Wu Ba, a total of 550,000 destiny gold coins, and my 600,000 reputation is enough!"

"Okay!" Yuan Zhi flipped his hand lightly, and an ancient ring suddenly appeared in his hand.

Lin Mu gently took it from his hand and felt that the ring seemed quite cold. Looking at the ring carefully, there were some auspicious beasts engraved on it, including Pixiu, Xiezhi, Qilin, etc., which were lifelike.

Lin Mu took it in his hand and felt a vast and mysterious atmosphere in his heart, which made people feel awe.

Concentrating and calming down, Lin Mu used Tailong Wangqi Technique, and its properties came out immediately:

Name: [Fate Ring]

Level: Xuan Level

Features: Law Converter

Attributes: [Fate Ring] has the function of converting luck into specific items. The only item that can be converted by this ring is: reputation is converted into [Fate Coins], and the conversion rate is 80%!

Introduction: Mysterious item! You can use this ring to trade luck, but both parties must agree! At present, the level of this ring is Xuan Level, and it can only trade reputation. Reputation is a mysterious thing, and the fate coin is its concreteness.

"Law converter, another high-end term, there are so many secrets between heaven and earth!" Lin Mu muttered as he gently played with the fate ring in his hand.

But the conversion rate is so low, 80%. Doesn't that mean that if you trade 10,000 reputation points with someone, 2,000 of them have to be paid!

"Lord, I will charge 5% for this conversion rate, and the higher authorities will charge 15%. I hope you can understand!" Yuan Zhi said sincerely with an apologetic look on his face.

But his expression, in Lin Mu's eyes, felt like a foxy smile.

"Finally, I have a chance to make a killing. Of course, I can't let it go." Yuan Zhi said in his heart with joy.

Lin Mu seemed to know Yuan Zhi's thoughts. He smiled lightly and put the ring on his hand. He looked quite calm after equipping it.

"Hey, Lord, don't you complain that the conversion rate is too low?" Yuan Zhi was a little surprised. In the past, this Lord would always complain, but now he was so calm.

"What's there to complain about? You deserve it." Lin Mu said with a little smile on his face.

80%, still acceptable.

Lin Mu bought this fate ring because he wanted to trade reputation with players with ordinary items, so that their reputation could be converted into fate coins through this ring.

Doing so has all the benefits and no harm!

"If that's the case, I would have charged 5% more!" Hearing Lin Mu's words, Yuan Zhi couldn't help but mutter.

"Haha, I didn't know it earlier!" Lin Mu smiled heartily and turned away.

With this fate ring, he will start to harvest the reputation of players!
