Seeing that everyone wanted to tag along and earn Points, Lin Xinghai offered a slight smile, nodded at Qin Wenbo, and said, "Alright! No problem."

Just when everyone thought this was merely a polite remark, Lin Xinghai continued, "In that case, let’s set it for tomorrow. Are you all free?"

"Huh?" After a moment of surprise, Qin Wenbo quickly came to his senses and said, "Yes, of course we’re free."

And it wasn’t just him; the eyes of the Mercenary Corps Leaders gathered around instantly lit up with eagerness.

"Captain Lin, take our Blue Water Mercenary Corps with you! We’re also a Third Level Mercenary Corps and can fully cooperate with your Heaven-Sundering Mercenary Corps."

"Captain Lin, while our Fierce Leopard Mercenary Corps is a Second Level Mercenary Corps, we have four Mechas. We absolutely won’t drag you down."

"Captain Lin, our Barbaric Mercenary Corps..."

One after another, the Mercenary Corps Leaders clamored to speak, afraid that if they were a step too slow, they would miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Looking at the eager crowd, Lin Xinghai smiled slightly and unhurriedly said something that stunned everyone.

"There’s no need to rush, everyone. There’s enough to go around. Anyone here today who wants to go can join the Heaven-Sundering Mercenary Corps’ operation tomorrow to earn Points."

The moment Lin Xinghai spoke, nearly everyone present froze. But after the initial shock wore off, they all had a nagging feeling that this wasn’t as simple as they thought.

Noticing the shift in everyone’s expressions, Lin Xinghai remained unhurried and asked calmly, "Does anyone know where we’re going that allows us to hunt so many Mutated Zombies?"

Everyone shook their heads in unison. They had long wanted to ask this question but had held back, fearing it was a taboo subject. Now that Lin Xinghai had brought it up himself, their faces filled with curiosity and anticipation.

"Guanghan City!" Lin Xinghai slowly uttered the two words.

Instantly, the sound of sharp, collective gasps filled the air.

What kind of place was Guanghan City? The three words, "Mercenary Restricted Area," said it all.

This was a place that even Third Level Mercenary Corps did their best to avoid. They never expected the Heaven-Sundering Mercenary Corps would actually dare to go.

They were even more surprised that not only had the corps gone there, but they had also returned safely with such a massive haul.

But with a little more thought, it all made sense. Only a terrifying place like Guanghan City could possibly have enough Mutated Zombies for a demon like Lin Xinghai to hunt.

"Brother Lin, you’re not planning to take us to Guanghan City, are you?" Qin Wenbo finally asked.

"That’s right!" Lin Xinghai nodded.

In an instant, the once-eager expressions on the captains’ faces turned grim.

They wanted to ride the Heaven-Sundering Mercenary Corps’ coattails for some easy profit, not follow them to their deaths.

For a place like Guanghan City, even if Lin Xinghai was willing to take them, which Mercenary Corps would dare to follow?

"Brother Lin, you really have a way of doing the unexpected! But I really don’t dare follow you to a place like that." Qin Wenbo shook his head with a wry smile.

Although Lin Xinghai was powerful, he couldn’t possibly protect everyone. ’He’ll probably have his hands full just protecting the Heaven-Sundering Mercenary Corps.’ After a moment of consideration, Qin Wenbo had no choice but to give up on the idea.

’There are plenty of other opportunities to earn Points. There’s no need to take a risk like this.’

"Everyone, I know you have reservations about Guanghan City. But since I said you could come along, how could I not have considered everyone’s strength?"

"Let me be frank with you all. When we go to Guanghan City, you’ll only have to deal with Ordinary Zombies. The military will take care of the Mutated Zombies."

Hearing Lin Xinghai mention the military, everyone’s expressions shifted once more. They immediately realized this was most likely another large-scale operation organized by the Shelter.

At the same time, the captains all relaxed. With the military involved, the pressure on them was reduced by more than half. Even if they ran into danger, there would be others at the front to take the brunt of it.

"Haha, excellent! In that case, we’ll be counting on you to look after us in Guanghan City tomorrow, Brother Lin." Qin Wenbo declared without much hesitation.

At the same time, the other Third Level Mercenary Corps Leaders also voiced their agreement. Even some Second Level Mercenary Corps that considered themselves capable decided, after a moment’s hesitation, that they wanted to go to Guanghan City as well.

"I said it before, everyone is welcome to come. In fact, even First Level Mercenary Corps can come along, no problem," Lin Xinghai continued after everyone had stated their intentions.

The various captains were shocked once again. This was especially true for the First Level Mercenary Corps Leaders, who had been standing on the sidelines thinking this had nothing to do with them. Their gazes toward Lin Xinghai were now filled with a mixture of apprehension and anticipation.

"Brother Lin, what do you mean by that?" Qin Wenbo voiced the question on everyone’s mind.

"Because this trip to Guanghan City is a large-scale zombie cleanup. But Guanghan City is special, so we can make some changes to our usual cleanup plan."

"For example, we can use Hand Cannons as the main offensive weapon, with Tearing Rifles and Mechas only responsible for mopping up." Lin Xinghai’s words were once again astonishing.

However, facing Lin Xinghai, no one dared to question or refute him. Instead, Qin Wenbo spoke up and asked Lin Xinghai for a detailed explanation.

Immediately, Lin Xinghai activated the projection function of his wrist-mounted computer, selecting some combat footage to show everyone the density of the zombies in Guanghan City.

Then he repeated the content of his previous conversation with Jiang Rui.

"In summary, using Hand Cannons to attack means you basically can’t lose. Plus, clearing out zombies will be more efficient and safer."

"On top of that, I’ve already coordinated with Supervisor Jiang, who’s in charge of Guild missions. A mission to clear out the zombies in Guanghan City will be posted tomorrow. At that time, you’ll get 10 Points for every Ordinary Zombie killed, 15 Points for an Intermediate Zombie, and 20 Points for a High Level Zombie."

The Mercenary Corps Leaders, who were already very tempted, couldn’t help but cry out in astonishment when they heard the mission rewards Lin Xinghai described.

A quick mental calculation was all it took for them to realize this was an absolutely golden opportunity. Even the First Level Mercenary Corps could probably earn six to seven thousand Points from a single trip.

While the vast majority of Mercenary Corps Leaders were ecstatic, captains like Qin Wenbo, who calmed down quickly, looked at Lin Xinghai with an incredibly complex expression.

It was a mix of envy, admiration, and a certain degree of awe.

They weren’t stupid. There hadn’t been so much as a whisper about any of this, yet Lin Xinghai already knew all the details, right down to the specific mission rewards.

What did this mean?

It was obvious that Lin Xinghai was on a completely different level from them.

They were just Mercenary Corps Leaders, but Lin Xinghai was probably about to enter the decision-making echelons of the Mercenary Guild.

No one would even be surprised if, in a little while, Lin Xinghai was parachuted in as a department supervisor, directly managing all their Mercenary Corps.
