I'm just an assistant, I don't save people

Chapter 315 Fifty-Fifty

Zhang Jinglie walked side by side with her, walked down a slope, and his back gradually disappeared from the crowd.

Lu Li looked at the two of them and asked Mo Yu, "Who is next to Lin Yan?"

Mo Yu's gaze was also on Lin Yan and Zhang Jinglie. He replied, "His name is Zhang Jinglie. He's a pharmacist. He often goes to Qinghe College as an exchange student with Suan Tou."

"Zhang Jinglie..." Lu Li murmured, "Is he familiar with Lin Yan?"

Mo Yu turned around and asked in confusion: "Why are you asking so many questions?"

"I'm afraid he's a spy for the monster."

Mo Yu was speechless and sighed, "The Demon King is not that idle."

"I'm not talking about the Demon King. I suspect he was sent by Yan Lie. Look at the dire situation at the Shuizhou River camp. If he was a spy, there's no need to leave over a hundred people alive. It's unacceptable, so I'm asking about your background."

"He's in the same class as Lin Yan Suan Tou, and he's not some monster spy."

After saying this, Mo Yu turned around and went to patrol elsewhere.

Lu Li glanced at the direction where the two disappeared, turned around and quickly caught up with Mo Yu.

At the bottom of the slope, Lin Yan jumped onto a flying leaf and crossed an area where corpses were piled up.

Zhang Jinglie didn't care and stepped on it, and thick blood soaked the sole of his shoe.

As he walked, he said, "Have you been to the auction house?"

Lin Yan nodded: "Yeah."

Zhang Jinglie turned his head in surprise, somewhat surprised that Lin Yan didn't hide it. He quickly calmed down and said, "Monster beasts are very valuable. There's a large-scale hunt every two years, and then the auction house is at its most active."

Lin Yan thought of something and asked, "The area between the south gate of Tianluo City and the main battle zone needs to be cleaned up every two years to ensure the safety of the transportation route?"

"Smart! You figured it out even without me telling you." Zhang Jinglie snapped his fingers. "But the situation this year is different from the past. The main battle zone has been lost."

Lin Yan was shocked at how quickly he understood the situation. He didn't know if it was because he had been hanging out with Xiao Ye for too long or because he had met too many people like him.

Seeing her sudden silence, Zhang Jinglie asked, "Are you scared?"

Lin Yan shook his head and said seriously, "I think this is a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters."

Zhang Jinglie took a deep breath and asked doubtfully, "What do you mean by taking advantage of troubled waters? Have you ever thought about leading the human race to defeat the monsters? This is a great opportunity to make a name for yourself."

"Leading the human race?" Lin Yan asked in surprise, "Are you serious?"

She pointed at herself, a look of disbelief on her face, "Me? How do you know I have the ability in this area? If I lead them, there's no need to guess that everyone will die tomorrow."

Zhang Jinglie: “…”

"Let's be practical. I've only been in the Liguang Forest for a short time. Ignoring leadership and influence, let's just talk about handling emergencies. I have no idea what to do after the main battle zone is lost."

Hearing this, Zhang Jinglie began to reflect and vaguely felt that what Lin Yan said made some sense. At her age, she was simply unable to handle a complex situation.

Zhang Jinglie frowned, "Then how do you plan to fish in troubled waters?"

"While they're fighting, Voldemort can pick up as much as he can. After level 50, each level up costs a lot of money. Besides, I have four monsters to support, and they all need spirit stones for three meals. How can I survive with only spending and no income?"

"You tell me this..."

"Yes." Lin Yan narrowed her eyes and nodded heavily. She held up five fingers. "Suan Tou is not here, and I'm in need of a pharmacist. I sincerely invite you to come with me. We'll split the bill 50-50."

Zhang Jinglie's answer was about to come out, and he was about to agree, but reason woke him up, "Why not ask Pei Yunqi?"

"I'm not familiar with him, and he's not from Nanheng. He's my senior. If I were to work with him, the odds would be at least 40-60, which would be a loss."

Zhang Jinglie hesitated for a moment, "Just the two of us?"

"Ah."

"Where's You Mingli?"

"Let him stay in the camp. With his attributes, the camp won't let him go."

Zhang Jinglie thought carefully. Regardless of whether Lin Yan had ulterior motives or not, this was a good opportunity to observe her closely.

"I agreed."

Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally taken the first step and it would be just around the corner to bring Zhang Jinglue into the ranks of collectors.

The two came to the bank of Shuizhou River.

Lin Yan looked at the river in some surprise. The ground behind him was stained with blood. He thought the river water was dirty and bloody, with corpses of people or monsters floating everywhere.

But looking around, the river water was clean, forming a sharp contrast with the blood-stained land behind it.
