I, the leader of the esoteric sect, am doing great things in the infinite world!

"My God, that's... the head manager!"

Andrei, who was beside Li Lin, did not notice the change in him. Instead, he was extremely excited: "Master, that is... that is Abraham, the chief manager of the entire mine. He actually came in person!"

Without a doubt, this was Li Lin's immediate superior.

"Master, hurry and go greet them!"

As the procession of attendants approached, a large group of people on Li Lin's side knelt down in a rush, leaving Li Lin alone standing in the middle of the road in the blink of an eye.

A faint commotion suddenly arose from the line of attendants opposite.

A moment later, the crowd dispersed and formed two rows, and a huge grizzly bear strode out from the center of the crowd.

The grizzly bear strode up to Li Lin with an arrogant air, looking down at him.

Li Lin raised his head, undaunted and fearless.

"You are... Abraham, the manager of the Twelfth Mine?"

“It’s Abraham Lilin,” Lilin corrected.

"Hahahaha!" A deafening laugh erupted from the grizzly bear's chest. "Don't you know that my name is also Abraham?"

Li Lin replied expressionlessly, "I know."

Grizzly stopped laughing and looked at Li Lin curiously: "Then why didn't you bow to me, little Abraham?"

“Do you really need these meaningless things?” Li Lin replied with dead fish eyes. “It’s like you’re the big manager of the mine, and your surname benefits from it too. When people talk about Abraham, they always think of you first, not me.”

Andrei, who was kneeling on the ground, was immediately astonished and then realized what was going on.

No wonder Li Lin was able to accomplish great things at such a young age and rise through the ranks so quickly; it turns out he has a knack for flattering people so skillfully that it shakes the heavens!

The grizzly bear laughed heartily, seemingly quite pleased.

Li Lin's unconventional flattery struck a chord with him.

A bear paw rose high and then gently landed on Li Lin's shoulder: "Come on, take me to see your mining area."

The procession restarted, with most of Li Lin's attendants running ahead to clear the way, leaving a trail of dust behind them.

Mining facilities have been erected throughout the mine. In the middle of the crisscrossing gullies, a temporary shed has been built for holding quarterly summary meetings.

The arrival of the supervisor prompted the miners to resume work. Moments later, three sides of the shed were removed, leaving only the side with the curtain hanging on it.

The Grizzlies unceremoniously took the spot originally meant for Li Lin, so another table had to be added to the left, relegating Li Lin to a supporting role.

At this moment, small groups of miners began to gather around the greenhouse.

"These people are..."

Grizzly Abraham glanced around at the infected people with displeasure, then abruptly slammed his hand on the table.

The tables and chairs immediately began to groan under the strain.

"Why hasn't work started yet?!"

The grizzly bear roared.

As soon as the head supervisor gave the order, the servants rushed out like tigers and wolves, taking out their weapons to drive the miners away.

A miner who couldn't dodge in time was struck on the back of the head by a long stick and fell to the ground. The servants paid no attention to this scene and their large feet, clad in thick-soled boots, rolled over the miners' torsos.

Grizzly Bear glared angrily at Li Lin: "This is your mining area? Don't these lowly people know that their presence will pollute the land of Ursus and defile the clean air?"

The enormous bear paw was curled up in anger, looking as if it might smash into Li Lin's head at any moment.

Andrei's body trembled with fear.

This was not only because he realized that everything Li Lin had promised might no longer exist, but also because he might be implicated by Li Lin.

Li Lin scoffed, tilting his mouth to the left in disdain.

“If you don’t want to be sent by the Duke of Kosiché to dig potatoes in the Northwest Tundra in the future, you’d better stop.”

Li Lin's words shocked everyone present.

Black Snake's tiger skin is still quite useful, but if Kosichek himself knew that Li Lin was using his name to put on airs, he might be so angry that he would come back to life.

Andrei and the other servants were astonished by Li Lin's words, while Grizzly Bear recalled the letter of recommendation that Baron Ivan had handed him a few months earlier.

At the time, I was still wondering who could make a baron take this so seriously... It turns out that the man's background was actually the Duke of Kosice?!

He was a duke!

Grizzly's expression changed several times in an instant, and he quickly got up.

The massive dome of the greenhouse was teetering on the verge of collapse. Li Lin took a step back, and Grizzly Bear's expression immediately turned awkward, and he became restless.

"So, the person Baron Ivan was referring to was you?"

"He spoke ill of me?" Li Lin retorted, turning hostile.

“No. Absolutely not!” Grizzly Bear Abraham gasped for breath, waving his hands repeatedly while signaling his servants to stop immediately.

However, by this time, many miners had already been seriously injured, and there were many others with minor injuries.

Li Lin squinted.

16 Their numbers are as numerous as the sands of the sea.

"Do you want to take action?"

The kingslayer's deliberately lowered voice rang in his ears, like the clanging of metal.

The grizzly bear in the distance was restless, completely lacking the composure and demeanor of its former superior.

Li Lin did not respond to anyone, but went to the miner who was most seriously injured and took off his protective mask.

Andrei moved closer anxiously: "Master..."

"What's your name?"

Li Lin lowered his head and asked.

no respond.

The miner's eyes were already cloudy, and his breathing was gradually weakening. In the chaos just now, he was unable to dodge in time and was hit on the head with a stick. After falling down, he was trampled on the ground countless times by many people.

His ribs were broken, his spine was fractured, and his nose was sunken.

Terrans are much stronger than pure humans, and some special races can even withstand bullets, but this is something that has nothing to do with the infected who were thrown into the mine.

Li Lin didn't know his name. Perhaps he left home this morning full of joy, or perhaps he promised his wife that he would definitely come back with his wages.

What will he say? Will he say that the master is a good person this time? Will he say that we can finally have a full meal?

Suddenly the miner began to breathe heavily, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something.

Li Lin leaned closer, his face calm: "Go ahead."

The kingslayer's voice rang out at just the right moment: "Don't do anything foolish!"

Li Lin ignored her and moved his face close to the miner's chest.

Breathing stopped.

Then the body temperature gradually cooled, like the embers of an extinguished lamp.

“Master, master.” Andrei, panting, found the roster lying on the ground. There was a footprint on the cover of the book. “Found it… his name is Richard.”

Li Lin released Richard, who was no longer breathing, and stared calmly at Andrei.

"He's the model worker for this quarter, right?"

Just as Andrei was about to say no, he saw Li Lin's abyss-like eyes and instinctively shuddered.

Yes! It is he!

Even if it isn't, it has to be.

As soon as Andrei spoke, he suddenly realized: Richard is already dead, so wouldn't that money be saved?

For a moment, the servant's gaze toward Li Lin grew increasingly horrified.

Li Lin paid no attention to Andrei's thoughts. He picked up the roster and got up to walk towards Abraham the Grizzly.

“Abel…no, Mr. Li Lin…”

Now it's the Grizzlies' turn to feel uneasy.

Li Lin threw the roster on the table: "I don't care about the life or death of one or two miners."

As soon as he said that, Grizzly Bear's face visibly relaxed, and the attendants who had been on high alert around him also began to relax.

As expected, no matter how much of a show he puts on, Li Lin is still a staunch member of the bourgeois aristocracy. Would a capitalist care about the life or death of one or two people?

A smile spread across the grizzly bear's face.

"It doesn't matter whether these lowly people, or you and me, live or die. But you, you idiot, almost ruined the Duke's plans," Li Lin said nonchalantly.

Grizzly Bear, forcing a smile, asked, "What's the plan...?"

"What is the plan?" the King Killer asked in Li Lin's ear.

"I do not know."
