A Clever Bait Fish Hooks Itself.
"Are you really a pig?"
"We didn't do it, so why are you admitting it? Now, even if we didn't do it, it's become our doing."
Malken's face turned ashen from being choked, and he managed to ask with difficulty, "Could it be... that we didn't do it?"
"If we wanted to do it, we would have done it long ago. Why keep them around?"
"This one-time money-making method is fast, but it can't be used to reap the rewards later."
Harry released Malken just as he was about to die.
Although Malken is infuriating, now is not the time to kill him.
We must make him confess everything he saw and heard.
This way, he can analyze the strength of the Reunion Movement.
"Tell me, what did you hear while you were being tied up?"
Malken recounted everything he overheard while tied to the tree to Harry, including the final two threatening sentences.
Harry frowned slightly upon hearing this, then burst into laughter.
"Haha... that Reunion Movement is just bluffing."
"Bluster?" Malken didn't quite understand Harry's thought process, which was supposed to be quite clever.
The Reunion Movement has publicly declared its intention to eliminate them, and has even mobilized some villagers.
Why did Harry say that the Reunion Movement was just bluffing?
"That's right, if the Reunion Movement directly threatens to wipe us out..."
"Then we need to analyze their strength."
"But before they started making their clamor, did they encourage and mobilize the villagers to join them?"
Do you know why?
Malken didn't know.
But Harry understood perfectly. "This shows that the Reunion Movement is short-handed and urgently needs a reason to expand."
"If we are intimidated by him, we will have fallen right into his trap."
"While we still wield influence, we must launch a holy war against the Reunion Movement!"
Bounty summary.

Chapter 175 The Birth of the Yeti Enforcement Squad.
"Fight the Reunion Movement?"
"Aren't we falling into their trap?"
Malken couldn't understand why the Reunion Movement had released him specifically to issue a challenge.
Why doesn't Harry consider a way out, but instead accepts the provocations of the Reunion Movement?
"Because their goal is to make us think it's a trap."
Harry analyzed, "If the Reunion Movement really wanted to attack us, they could have followed us during the process of letting you return and wiped us out in one fell swoop."
But they didn't do that.
What does this mean?
"This shows that they never intended to fight us."
Although Harry had been arrested by the Empire, he was not stupid.
On the contrary, his ability to escape from the Imperial Mines and establish a cult precisely demonstrates that he is a master of understanding human nature.
Although he was unaware of the strength and origins of the Reunion Movement.
However, he is able to make judgments from the perspective of the Reunion Movement.
If you were the leader of the Reunion Movement.
To eradicate a cult that controls dozens of villages, the only way is to launch a fatal attack without exposing themselves.
Instead of doing so, the Reunion Movement launched a large-scale publicity campaign and sought help from nearby villages.
This can only mean two things: one is that the Reunion Movement deliberately lured them out.
Another issue is that the Reunion Movement is not strong enough to achieve this, so it needs to leverage its strengths and expand its ranks.
However, Malken's safe return negated the first possibility.
Unless the Reunion Movement wants him to gather followers and then attack the Reunion Movement.
Harry couldn't believe anyone would do something so pointless.
I can't understand what the point of doing this is for them.
At the same time.
Seeing that Luo Chen hadn't led anyone out to forcibly seize laborers in the past two days, but had only given speeches in a few nearby villages and built a small camp between them, he hadn't done anything outrageous.
Big Bear secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought that Chief Siluo, that monstrous figure, was going to capture villagers and enslave them.
If Luo Chen really did seize hundreds of villagers as laborers simply because of his sarcastic remark...
Then his conscience would completely explode.
However, Luo Chen's current inaction does not mean he won't in the future.
Still somewhat worried, Big Bear decided to ask FrostNova to accompany him to visit Luo Chen and beg him to spare the villagers.
At this moment, FrostNova lay on the ground in the wilderness, gazing at the sky with boredom, her long, soft, silver hair scattered irregularly on the ground.
Since Luo Chen halted the new village development plan the day before yesterday, FrostNova has found herself becoming a giant mascot.
Everyone else in the camp was busy as bees, but she couldn't do anything.
Let's move the supplies.
Because of my own body temperature, things often get damaged by the cold.
Go and help Luo Chen with his official duties.
As a result, Luo Chen couldn't even understand a simple table, causing his workload to increase dramatically.
Finally, Luo Chen somehow produced a workbook and tossed it to him.
He also said that if he really had nothing to do, he would do some elementary school homework.
Although I'm unwilling to accept it.
But FrostNova found herself only able to be a mascot, aside from fighting.
Just then, the Big Bear ran over:
"Big sister, would you come with me to see Chief Luo?"
"I'm not going. I've already embarrassed myself enough."
FrostNova initially refused decisively, but then suddenly remembered something and abruptly raised her head.
He stared intently at the Big Bear.
"What do you want to do with Luo Chen?"
"Didn't you say you weren't going?" Big Bear muttered speechlessly, but still voiced his request:
"I want you to come with me to persuade Chief Luo not to seize innocent villagers as laborers."
"If we indiscriminately arrest ordinary people, what difference is there between us and the empire?"
No sooner had Big Bear finished speaking than FrostNova stood up from the ground and started running.
"Let's go talk to him."
Chased by the Big Bear, the two arrived outside Luo Chen's tent.
This left Big Bear completely confused as to who was looking for Luo Chen.
"FrostNova, why are you here again? Have you finished the workbook I gave you?"
FrostNova remained silent, simply turning her head towards the Big Bear, indicating that he was the main character.
Luo Chen glanced at the Big Bear that emerged from behind FrostNova:
"You want the workbook too?"
"What do I need this for?" Big Bear was still a bit out of sync with the conversation. What exercise book?
"So what do you want to say?" Luo Chen asked softly.
"I actually came to apologize to Chief of Staff Luo. I shouldn't have been dissatisfied with your attitude yesterday. I'm sorry."
Even the usually hot-tempered Big Bear had to put on a long face.
