Chen Luo covered his face. Divine Mutt, is it really okay to pee in public like this?

He was losing face.

Out in broad daylight, this was indecent.

Divine Mutt peed, and Jin Tao also peed.

He was scared into it.

Beaten into a complete rout by a dog.

His subordinates fled for their lives. Jin Tao had a pretty good idea of what his fate would be after this defeat.

He collapsed to the ground, his pants wet.

When he was in control of other people's lives, Jin Tao felt great. Now, he only felt a chill all over, his heart trembling. His legs were weak and disobedient, and he couldn't even manage to get up.

The only part of him that was still functioning was his mouth.

Jin Tao howled and cried to Chen Luo, "Big brother, spare my life. I'll do anything you want."

Zhao Hai shook his head as he watched. What difference was there between this and those guys who couldn't pay up, who were captured by his own subordinates?

At the same time, Zhao Hai was secretly rejoicing that he had made a wise choice and hadn't offended Chen Luo too much.

Otherwise, that black dog's hit-and-run tactics alone would have given him a massive headache.

Zhao Hai was still a little uneasy, wondering how Chen Luo would treat him.

Chen Luo glanced at Jin Tao. "Don't worry, I won't kill you."

Chen Luo was planning to exploit a bug. The undead creatures summoned by Jin Tao could also provide crystals, but undead creatures below Level 3 didn't have any.

Only Level 4 undead creatures would have them.

Once he leveled Jin Tao up to Level 3, he should be able to barely summon a Level 4 undead creature.

This was the advantage of summoners. At low levels, they could easily have subordinates stronger than themselves. It was much harder to do at higher levels, like the king level. Unless you were at the peak of the king level, it was impossible to summon subordinates beyond that.

The disadvantage was also obvious. After summoning, their special ability power was basically empty. Summoners were much weaker physically than elemental users of the same level.

If you killed the summoner, the summoned creatures would naturally disappear as well.

Usually, summoners would summon several subordinates, mostly for combat, keeping one or two to protect themselves.

In a one-on-one situation, it was difficult for enemies to get close to the summoner. In a group fight, they would naturally have teammates to protect them.

It was very difficult to assassinate a summoner.

But was that a problem for Chen Luo, who possessed Void Walk?

Chen Luo was every summoner's daddy.

If Jin Tao summoned a Level 4 undead creature, Chen Luo would get a Level 4 crystal.

But this bug couldn't be exploited indefinitely. There were quantity and time limits. No matter how much you cheated, it was useless.

Once you exploited this bug, the summoner would die suddenly when the quantity or time limit was reached.

It seemed there was some kind of rule in the dark.

In his previous life, a Level 10 summoner didn't believe it and exploited the bug with a friend. Well, he passed away peacefully.

But what did that have to do with Chen Luo? The one who died then would only be Jin Tao.

Hearing Chen Luo's words—that he wouldn't kill him—Jin Tao was stunned for a moment, then kowtowed.

"Thank you, big brother. Thank you, big brother. You look like a man of your word. I will listen to you obediently."

Chen Luo instructed the people around him, "Find a room for him and lock him up, with the treatment given to new members."

Chen Luo warned Jin Tao, "Young man, I have high hopes for you. The summoner talent is awesome. I won't kill you. You'll be a big help to me in the future. But if you dare to make any small moves or try to escape, I'll break all five of your limbs."

Young man?

Jin Tao, who was in his thirties, looked at Chen Luo, who was in his early twenties, and dared not be angry or speak.

Mi Ling curled her lip when she heard "five limbs." A pervert.

Chen Luo thought about it and decided to break both his legs first to prevent him from escaping. Otherwise, he wouldn't feel secure. Anyway, a summoner tool didn't need legs to perform. It wouldn't affect his strength.

Dare to resist or disobey?

He'd continue to break his third leg.

Chen Luo told Chen Guang a few things, and Chen Guang nodded.

The others began to collect the crystals.

Zhao Hai was uneasy, but he didn't show it on his face. "Brother Chen is really capable. I've offended you a lot before. I'm here to apologize."

As he spoke, Zhao Hai took out a delicate silver pistol from behind his waist.

Fang Yu and the other three thought their chance to perform had come again and tried to stand in front of Chen Luo, but Chen Luo waved them back.

Zhao Hai offered the gun with both hands. "A small gift, nothing much."

Chen Luo chuckled. What use was this thing? It posed no threat to him at all.

Chen Luo was Level 5. Level 1 spells couldn't even pose any threat to him anymore.

Chen Luo took the gun and, in full view of everyone, pointed it at his chest and fired.

Zhao Hai was terrified beyond words. What was happening? Was he trying to end it all?

The others were also dumbfounded as they watched Chen Luo.

But what happened next shocked Zhao Hai into falling to the ground.

The bullet couldn't even penetrate Chen Luo's body. It lodged outside his skin and then fell weakly to the ground.

It was summer, and he wasn't wearing many clothes. Zhao Hai could confirm that Chen Luo was only wearing a shirt. There was no way he could have been wearing any bulletproof vest underneath.

Was this still a human?

The bullet didn't pose the slightest threat?

The whole place was silent as they looked at Chen Luo as if he were a ghost.

Chen Luo had done it on purpose to intimidate Zhao Hai. He had originally wanted to aim at his temple, but then he thought better of it.

There was a one in ten thousand chance that it would hurt his head.

Even if the bullet penetrated Chen Luo's head, his powerful vitality would prevent him from dying.

Chen Luo laughed. "Although this thing is a bit useless, it looks good and can be used as a toy."

Level 3 special ability users were something that Zhao Hai and the others had never encountered. They originally thought that Jin Tao's strength was already very strong, but they didn't expect that he wasn't even on the same level as Chen Luo.

That black dog wasn't Chen Luo's greatest strength. His own strength was unfathomable.

Zhao Hai was a man with good judgment, but a person who was used to being the boss probably wouldn't be willing to be subordinate to others.

Chen Luo didn't really care whether he could accept him or not.

What was the use of just having good judgment? Chen Luo didn't need him to steer the ship here.

It would be better to let him go back and help him gather some information.

Zhao Hai said with a wry smile, "Brother Chen's strength has really shattered my understanding."

Chen Luo said, "We didn't know each other until we fought, right? We also have areas where we can cooperate. If you hear about anything interesting or discover any talents, you can also recommend them to me and exchange them for supplies. I have quite a few supplies here."

Chen Luo wasn't afraid that Zhao Hai would secretly take in talents. As long as you wielded the hoe well, there was no talent you couldn't dig up.

Chen Luo walked past Zhao Hai and said loudly, "Are there any light-type, dark-type, earth-type, or nature-type users here? Other special auxiliary abilities are also welcome. The benefits here are good. If you want to join, you can consider it."

Light-type and dark-type users went without saying. Their abilities were rare. Learning auxiliary abilities could be very useful in many situations.

Nature-type users could grow vegetables. He couldn't do that yet until he reached Level 4, but it was always good to stock up in advance.

As for earth-type users, Chen Luo planned to reinforce his base. Although this wouldn't be his final base, he would be staying here for quite some time.

Currently, there were only nine earth-type users in the base, and their levels were also low. It would be difficult to reinforce the base with just them. He needed to recruit more people.

Chen Luo had deliberately shown his strength earlier to recruit some talent.

There were some things that Chen Luo couldn't say outright. He was a leader, after all. He had to maintain his image.

Xia Haoran was dull. Chen Guang wasn't here; he had gone to break Jin Tao's legs.

Leng Chen was very quick-witted and shouted, "We have three meals a day here, with meat occasionally. The conditions are excellent. Everyone has seen how strong we are. What are you hesitating for?"

Other things didn't matter. Strength was the most important thing, and everyone could see that.

Jin Tao and Zhao Hai combined weren't their opponents.

Dare you believe that he could take a bullet to the body?

And that dog, oh my god, it electrocuted a bunch of people. The lightning divine mutt.

Four people immediately ran out—three earth-type users and one nature-type user.

It wasn't that the others didn't want to run out; they just didn't meet the requirements.

A girl from Zhao Hai's group hesitated for a moment, bit her lip, and ran out as well. She was a nature-type user.

Zhao Hai was stunned when he saw this, but Chen Luo looked at him with a smile, and Zhao Hai didn't dare to say anything.

What could he do?

He didn't dare say no or try to stop her. He wasn't familiar with Chen Luo's personality and was afraid that Chen Luo would immediately turn hostile.

No wonder he had showed off his ability to take a bullet to the body earlier.

Including those from Jin Tao's side, there were a total of 16 people.

Unfortunately, there wasn't a single light-type or dark-type user.

Someone said unwillingly, "I'm brave and willing to fight. I'm currently at Level 2. Can you take me in?"

Chen Luo said, "Yes. Kill ten zombies and obtain ten crystals as proof. You can join as a new member."

This scared off some people, but others gritted their teeth and called on their friends to quickly search for zombies.

Zhao Hai watched with a wry smile. It seemed that all the elites had been absorbed by Chen Luo.

But weren't you afraid that some people had ill intentions?

The only thing that comforted Zhao Hai was that none of his eight core brothers had run away.

Chen Luo glanced at Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai was a smart man. Even if he was dissatisfied, he wouldn't dare to retaliate in the short term.

Even if he dared to retaliate, his subordinates wouldn't dare to retaliate.

Zhao Hai didn't dare to stay any longer. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that all his people would run away.

Zhao Hai said, "Brother Chen, if you need anything in the future, you can find me at Golden Dragon Garden. I live there. If I'm ever in trouble, I hope Brother Chen can help me out, considering we're friends."

Chen Luo laughed. "Easy to say."

This was a smart man. He knew that having more friends was better than having more enemies.

Divine Mutt returned, but it didn't look happy. It knew how many people it had killed. At 5 points each, it only had 160 points. Capturing Jin Tao alive was worth 100 points.

Adding it all up, it only had 260 points, which was far from the 1500 points needed to become an elder.

Divine Mutt narrowed its dog eyes as it looked at Zhao Hai's back.

There were quite a few people in this group. It could get two or three hundred points.

But Chen Luo didn't give the order.

According to its master's personality, it was very likely that he didn't want to take action in person.

He might secretly send out a dog assassin later.

But after waiting for half a minute, Divine Mutt didn't receive any signal.

Divine Mutt looked at Chen Luo in confusion.

Kick me! Why aren't you kicking me?

Or give me a look. I'll know it's time to move.

If you don't kick me soon, the dog won't be able to catch up.

…

I'm exhausted. I have things to do this afternoon. I'm short a thousand words.
