Guessing, Another Rare One!

For the next two days, Lin Ze did not go to the Library to meet Xiao Yi Xian.

He merely sent a Death Soldier to keep watch at the Library's entrance.

Seeing that Xiao Yi Xian did indeed go to the Library to read every day, Lin Ze didn't think much of it.

In Lin Ze's opinion, his relationship with Xiao Yi Xian was, at most, that of ordinary friends.

The reason Xiao Yi Xian showed him kindness was twofold. Firstly, it was due to their friendship.

Secondly, Xiao Yi Xian believed that it was because of her that Lin Ze was targeted by Mu Li, suffered undeserved misfortune, and was forced to leave Qingshan Town.

Leaving the town where Lin Ze had lived for over a decade was akin to leaving his homeland.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Yi Xian also harbored some compensatory feelings towards Lin Ze.

However, regardless of the reasons, Xiao Yi Xian's kindness towards Lin Ze was genuine and sincere.

Lin Ze kept this in mind.

If Xiao Yi Xian encountered any insurmountable trouble in Fire Wolf Town, he would be willing to lend a hand.

"Give me a peach, and I'll return a plum."

Lin Ze didn't consider himself a good person, lacking the compassionate heart to save the world and its people.

But Lin Ze also strongly believed in repaying kindness with kindness and vengeance with vengeance.

Xiao Yi Xian had shown him kindness, and Lin Ze would reciprocate with kindness.

Besides leaving a Death Soldier to watch the Library, other Death Soldiers were also keeping an eye on Xiao Yi Xian's situation.

If she encountered any trouble, Lin Ze would be able to know about it quickly.

After dealing with Xiao Yi Xian's matters, Lin Ze shifted his attention to the Flame Mercenary Group.

The Flame Mercenary Group's movements over the past two days had been somewhat strange.

They neither united with other mercenary groups in Fire Wolf Town to demand an explanation from the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

Nor did they continue to take action against the Fire Wolf Pack.

"Something is wrong! Something must have happened. With Huo Lie's cunning and depth of character, he wouldn't just let this matter go."

"The Flame Mercenary Group invested a great deal of time, energy, and even resources, only to have it all disrupted by the Wolf Head Mercenary Group."

"If they could have obtained the Fire Wolf King Cub after all their efforts, then their previous sacrifices would have been worth it, but they didn't!"

"For Huo Lie to take no action against the Wolf Head Mercenary Group that disrupted their plans is simply unacceptable."

"Even within the Flame Mercenary Group, it wouldn't make sense. Without a proper reason, it would be difficult for Huo Lie to convince his subordinates."

"Unless there are greater benefits!"

Lin Ze's eyes flickered. Could the Wolf Head Mercenary Group offer greater benefits to sway the Flame Mercenary Group?

Lin Ze felt puzzled by this.

Because the strength of Mu She, the Leader of the Wolf Head Mercenary Group, was only that of a Two-Star Dou Master, roughly the same as Huo Lie's.

Under such circumstances, how could Mu She possibly offer greater benefits?

Lin Ze couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought.

"Ultimately, my intelligence is lacking. No matter how much I think, I can't come up with anything."

"Observing from outside the Flame Mercenary Group's stronghold, it's already difficult to obtain this much intelligence."

"Do I really need to find a way to infiltrate the Flame Mercenary Group with Death Soldiers?"

Lin Ze had considered this method over the past two days.

However, from the information gathered from various places in Fire Wolf Town, the Flame Mercenary Group followed an elite path.

At least compared to the Wolf Head Mercenary Group in Qingshan Town, which had hundreds of members, the Flame Mercenary Group's numbers were controlled at dozens, nearly a third less than the Wolf Head Mercenary Group.

The threshold for joining the mercenary group was not low; one had to be at least a Five-Star Dou Practitioner, or possess outstanding talent.

"Sigh, I'll try again tomorrow."

Lin Ze shook his head.

He had a feeling that the Fire Wolf King incident this time was an opportunity for him, an opportunity for revenge.

But he couldn't grasp the thread of it.

Just as Lin Ze was pondering, a subtle energy fluctuation in the room caught his attention.

"Hmm?"

Lin Ze cast his gaze towards the anomaly and saw a very faint white Dou Qi appearing on Ma Fugui.

Lin Ze was somewhat surprised and immediately stepped forward.

After a thorough examination, he confirmed that Ma Fugui had indeed reached Dou Disciple Stage 1.

"As expected, the information from the Bronze Mirror was not baseless. It specifically wrote that passage, and it was useful information."

"An Outstanding Talent, one in a hundred, represents even more exceptional Cultivation Talent!"

"In just a few days, he broke through from zero to Dou Disciple Stage 1, surpassing A-Er, who had been cultivating for the longest time!"

Lin Ze nodded with satisfaction.

Lin Ze immediately tested the current Proxy State.

After testing, Ma Fugui could enter the Proxy State for ten minutes.

This meant that for a low-level jump of one tier, he could maintain it for ten minutes, but for a jump of two tiers, he could only maintain it for three minutes.

As for higher tiers, the time would likely be further reduced.

After all, the higher the level in the Dou Skill cultivation system, the harder it was to cross tiers.

The same applied to the Proxy Function.

Lin Ze guessed that if he could reach the Dou Saint level in the future, even if the death soldier's strength reached the Dou Venerate level, it would be difficult to proxy his Dou Saint power.

Even for a very short period, the death soldier would likely have to pay an extremely heavy price.

However, even so, the power of the Proxy Function was still impeccable.

"It's Dawn."

"Bronze Mirror, Projection!"

Lin Ze seized the moment and immediately chose Projection. He hadn't projected a Blue Rare Death Soldier for the past two days, increasing the chance by 8%.

The chance of projecting a Blue Rare Death Soldier now was 13%!

Lin Ze had a premonition that he would definitely project a Blue Rare Death Soldier today.

Under Lin Ze's control, the Bronze Mirror's Projection was no longer completed in an instant but had a sequence.

This gave Lin Ze the feeling of pulling a miracle with a single draw.

The figure projected by the Bronze Mirror slowly emerged.

White.

White.

White.

Blue!

He got it!

Lin Ze's eyes lit up. This precious azure color made his breathing quicken.

What skills and talents would this rare death soldier have this time?

Lin Ze immediately consumed thirteen units of Flesh Essence to summon a death soldier.

Ordinary death soldiers were pure blanks, not worth looking at.

Lin Ze immediately focused his gaze on the rare death soldier.

[Rare Death Soldier: Unnamed]

[Skill: Hunting (Proficient Grade): Proficiently masters hunting techniques, understands the habits of most prey, and masters various trap-setting methods.]

[Talent: Decorative Trap (Blue): Traps set are more exquisite and difficult to detect.]

"A combination of hunting and traps? It's quite useful for me at the moment."

"It can speed up my acquisition of Flesh Essence."

"A good trap would be useful against those large beasts, and even some First Order Magical Beasts."

"The next time I unlock a function or upgrade a death soldier, I will need to reach one thousand units of Flesh Essence."

"With my current net income of Flesh Essence per day, it will take at least over a month to reach the one thousand standard."

"With the hunting skill of this blue rare death soldier, it should speed things up considerably."

Lin Ze calculated in his mind, hoping to unlock the next function before the Jia Nan Academy enrollment date.

Lin Ze had checked the Jia Nan Academy enrollment date a couple of days ago; it was about a month and a half away.

Moreover, Jia Nan Academy would not recruit in such a remote town, so Lin Ze would have to set off in advance and head to a nearby big city.

"I wonder if I'll have a chance to deal with the Wolf Head Mercenary Group before heading to Jia Nan Academy?"
