"Young Leader, times are different now. The Leader met with an accident. It's best you don't clash with the Wolf Head Mercenary Group anymore."
"These Gold Coins were pooled together by the brothers. Consider it repayment for the Leader's past care. Young Leader, please take them and recuperate."
"That's all I have to say. Young Leader, the brothers and the Iron Blood Mercenary Group's debt of gratitude is now settled. One last piece of advice, please don't act rashly!"
A middle-aged, burly man dressed as a mercenary placed a bag of Gold Coins on the table.
Looking at the young man half-reclining on the bed, lost in thought, he assumed the youth was simply dazed from the overwhelming blows he'd suffered in recent days and didn't disturb him further.
The burly man sighed softly, cupped his hands in a salute to the young man, and then turned to leave.
After the burly man departed, the young man took a deep breath.
Breaking through Womb Amnesia, awakening Awakened Wisdom!
The young man murmured inwardly, the confusion in his eyes gradually receding.
I didn't expect to transmigrate to the Dou Qi Continent...
The memories of my past life are vivid and real, and the experiences of this life over the past decade are equally real. From today onwards, I am Lin Ze!
Lin Ze sorted through the memories of both lives, rubbing his temples with his fingers.
He had grown up in a small mercenary group. His parents were the leaders of the mercenary group, and they made a living by Hunting Magical Beasts.
A few days ago, the mercenary group entered the Magical Beast Mountain Range for Hunting and unexpectedly encountered two Tier 2 Magical Beasts – Iron-Armed White Apes.
The mercenary group suffered heavy losses, and even Lin Ze's parents died as a result.
With the mercenary group Leader meeting an accidental death, the group suddenly lost its backbone.
With Lin Ze's current strength of Dou Disciple Rank 9, he couldn't command respect.
After all, mercenaries hunt Magical Beasts, living on the edge of a knife. A leader lacking strength would undoubtedly lead them to ruin.
When it rains, it pours.
At this moment, another mercenary group in Qingshan Town, the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, learned of this news.
They led their men to the Iron Blood Mercenary Group's stronghold, intending to recruit the Iron Blood Mercenary Group's members.
They even intended to seize the Iron Blood Mercenary Group's assets through underhanded means.
Lin Ze was furious and wanted to stop the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, but he was injured by their men.
His parents died in an accident, their inheritance was being plundered by others, and Lin Ze himself was injured.
Under such intense stimulation, Lin Ze finally broke through Womb Amnesia and awakened Awakened Wisdom.
His peripheral vision swept over the bag of Gold Coins on the table, and he sighed softly.
As for this bag of Gold Coins, it was left by mercenaries from the Iron Blood Mercenary Group who had once received favors from his parents.
However, as the burly mercenary had said when he left, from this moment on, all debts of gratitude were settled.
The help Lin Ze's parents had given them was completely offset by this bag of Gold Coins!
Lin Ze took a deep breath, then shook his head.
"Fine, then all debts of gratitude are settled."
"They are just ordinary mercenaries. It's unrealistic to expect them to confront one of the Three Great Mercenary Groups in Qingshan Town for past favors."
Lin Ze murmured.
Although his previous life was completely shattered and he had offended the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, Lin Ze was not too worried.
This was because along with his Awakening Wisdom, a Bronze Mirror had awakened from the depths of his soul!
Although the Bronze Mirror had been shimmering with light since its awakening, it had not displayed any power.
Just from the miraculous nature of this Bronze Mirror, Lin Ze felt much more at ease.
Just then, Lin Ze felt a tremor in his soul.
He quickly held his breath and concentrated his attention.
A Bronze Mirror with ancient patterns slowly appeared, shimmering with light.
As Lin Ze watched, the light on the Bronze Mirror gradually subsided.
Text that Lin Ze could understand appeared.
[Mirror Master: Lin Ze]
[Rank: Dou Disciple] (Current Rank, can project two White Common Death Soldiers daily. Can summon by consuming Flesh Essence. Absolute Loyalty.)
[Flesh Essence: 0/1 Unit] (Flesh Essence can be used to summon Death Soldiers, upgrade Death Soldiers, and unlock functions.)
[Function: Control (Mirror Master can absolutely control Death Soldiers through the Bronze Mirror.)]
Lin Ze carefully read the few lines of text on the Bronze Mirror.
Then he let out a long breath.
The gloom and worry in his heart were swept away.
A golden finger!
Daily summon Death Soldiers!
Absolute loyalty to oneself!
Lin Ze suppressed his excitement and looked at the Bronze Mirror.
The writing on the Bronze Mirror slowly shrank, and two white, blurry figures appeared on the mirror surface.
'Are these the Death Soldiers projected by the Ancient Bronze Mirror?'
Lin Ze murmured inwardly, his gaze fixed on the line of Flesh Essence on the mirror surface.
"Flesh Essence?"
Lin Ze looked at his palm, then immediately turned his head towards the kitchen.
He slowly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
Mercenaries hunt Magical Beasts, and Magical Beasts naturally have many valuable parts.
Bones and claws can be made into weapons, fur can be made into luxurious clothes and sturdy armor, and flesh can be refined into essence blood, sold to noble Alchemists...
And the flesh of a Magical Beast's corpse undoubtedly accounts for the largest proportion.
Even after refining the essence blood, the Magical Beast's flesh can still be used for consumption.
Therefore, the mercenary group's method of handling Magical Beast flesh is either to sell it or to divide it among the mercenary group members.
This is Lin Ze's home in Qingshan Town. When there are no missions, Lin Ze's family lives here.
Therefore, there is also some dried Magical Beast Meat in the kitchen.
'I hope Flesh Essence means what I think it means, and even more, I hope the dried Magical Beast Meat can be refined into Flesh Essence...'
Lin Ze thought to himself, taking out the storage box from the kitchen.
There were more than a dozen simple dried meat pieces of various sizes inside the box.
Although the Iron Blood Mercenary Group was named Iron Blood, the atmosphere within the mercenary group was still very good.
Lin Ze's parents would also buy Magical Beast Meat from mercenaries who didn't want it, using money.
After all, mercenaries preferred Gold Coins, which could be used for pleasure, over Magical Beast Meat, which could only fill their stomachs.
Because of this, there was so much dried meat at home.
Lin Ze picked up a piece of dried meat, weighed it in his hand, and tried saying in his heart.
"Absorb?"
The next moment, the jerky in his hand disappeared.
Lin Ze focused on the Bronze Mirror. The Flesh Essence column showed no change at all.
"Not enough to reach a quantitative change?"
Lin Ze tried again. This time, he paid close attention to the changes in the Bronze Mirror.
After he gave the command to absorb, the jerky in his hand instantly entered the Bronze Mirror and was immediately absorbed completely.
"So that's how it is."
He repeated this action until the seventh piece of jerky. The writing on the Mirror Surface finally changed.
[Flesh Essence: 1/1 Unit]
Lin Ze did not hesitate at all and immediately chose to summon!
Flesh Essence was consumed, and one blurry figure in the Mirror disappeared.
A robust figure then appeared before Lin Ze.
The Death Soldier had an ordinary appearance and a sturdy build, looking somewhat honest.
Lin Ze sized up the Death Soldier from head to toe, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
Relieved!
