Chapter 95: The True Intention

“I’m afraid that your mindset was no longer to satisfy your hunger . You were experiencing a change in your mental health . Even though you no longer require it, you need it to satisfy your desires . ”

Zhang Mu continued . He was challenging the leader’s bottom line, “this change came very quickly and because of that, you developed fear and suspicion, leading you to train these people . You lost your sense of belonging and was very lonely . ”

The silver-hair leader smiled, “you are right . However, what is the point? You talked so much but you are still under my control . What can you do?”

“I knew from the first evolver that I ate, which is the Era Merchant’s memory, that you are a very powerful person . The items in the Merchant store were all taken by you . You must be a very smart person too . Why are you trying so hard to provoke me?”

Zhang Mu didn’t seem frightened and said, “since you knew what I want to do, why are you still playing along? Do you find it interesting?”

“You are right, I find it very interesting . ” the leader ignored Zhang Mu’s gaze and continued himself, “I don’t know how your brain works but you have guessed correctly some of my thoughts . If I don’t already know that you are a plant-type evolver, I would have guessed that you are a psychology-type evolver like me . ”

“Yes, I am very lonely now . I actually feel a sense of intimacy when I see you . ”

“I was thinking that your brain must be very nice to eat too,” the leader suddenly said this and Zhang Mu immediately felt nervous . He couldn’t keep up with this powerful guy’s mind . One moment ago he was saying he felt lonely and now, he was thinking about eating Zhang Mu up .

Zhang Mu still couldn’t control his body . He felt that this guy’s spiritual power was on another level . A thought came into Zhang Mu’s mind .

Although the guy in front of him had not reached Level 2 yet, his spiritual power and strength were already on that level .

There were no other reasons why he could control him for so long . The last psychology-type evolver he met was the one outside the Xi’an Merchant store . That guy could only control a walking dead . He didn’t have the spiritual power to directly control evolvers like Zhang Mu and might even find difficulty controlling a normal person . Hence, he didn’t control Zhang Mu in the end and used Yuan Rui to threaten him instead .

However, this leader of the North city had controlled him for almost 15 minutes . This had nothing to do with a person’s willpower anymore . It was a battle of strength and spiritual power .

Zhang Mu used to think that he was ahead of the rest of the people in the world but he took a slap in the face in this small Luoyang city . He smiled wryly in his heart . He underestimated his opponent . He had thought that he just had to help Wang Liang destroyed a new base that was inhumane enough to kill their own race . Who knew that he would discover such a big secret and even got caught?

However, Zhang Mu knew one thing for certain . There was no such person in the future . He assumed that certain acts of his in this Luoyang city caused this big BOSS to survive when he should have died .

Zhang Mu didn’t know that he would get punished so quickly for changing the history . He didn’t know what to say . He gained many benefits but also dug a hole for himself .

The leader looked at Zhang Mu who was in a daze and his greedy eyes regained its composure . He turned back into a normal man and no one could spot any difference .

He looked at the ring on Zhang Mu’s hand and his eyes immediately lit up . He couldn’t hide the praises he had as he slowly said, “at the start, I don’t know anything about Era Merchants . I met an evolver who survived a mutated beast attack by faking death . I was so hungry then but I don’t want to eat anything else . ”

“I don’t know what was an evolver or what is an Era Merchant, but when I bite into his flesh, I knew that the taste was different . It was much better than that of a normal human . Within the stench, there was a stream of warmth that slowly integrated into my body . ”

“I didn’t realise it at the start that my body was getting stronger . Only after that did I felt that my body was longer so tired and flimsy . I felt like I was 20 years old again . ”

“The body of the person could no longer satisfy me . I slowly shifted my attention to his brain . By then, I was filled with power and just needed to use a bit of energy to break open the hardest bone in our body, the skull . I slowly sucked the brain juice and casually enjoyed it . ”

At this moment, the leader’s eyes were suddenly filled with regret and excitement, “the more I suck, the more understanding I had about this world . I seemed to have open a new door to the future . ”

He finished his sentence and shifted his gaze towards Zhang Mu, “I knew about the Merchant store and who the Era Merchants were . I knew about you, the first Era Merchant who wiped out all the Merchant stores in Luoyang city . ”

“However, the ring that he had on his hand, which looked the same yours, suddenly burst when I was eating halfway and I was shocked by it . ”

“I was engrossed in the taste of the brain and didn’t place too much importance in that issue . After I finished the brain, I regretted . The Merchant Ring was proof of your identity . ”

He finished and move towards Zhang Mu . He looked at Zhang Mu in the eyes and slowly took off his eye-patch, “tell me how to become an Era Merchant and I will not kill you . ”
