Have a private talk?

Lin Zichen was somewhat surprised, and so were the others.

Nobody knew why Lan Tianbai wanted to talk privately.

However, Lin Zichen didn't think too much about it and quickly followed Lan Tianbai to a deserted corner to see what he wanted to discuss.

Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Zichen also became a bit vigilant, preparing himself to make a move if necessary.

At this point, he trusted no one.

Lan Tianbai suddenly requesting a private chat, he feared Lan Tianbai was a traitor, looking for an opportunity to deal with him one-on-one.

Although he had overpowered Lan Tianbai without any difficulty during the last Tree Cage incident,

it didn't mean that Lan Tianbai truly wasn't a match for him.

If Lan Tianbai was a traitor, then it wasn't impossible for him to hide his real strength.

While Lin Zichen was pondering all this, Lan Tianbai finally spoke up.

Lan Tianbai said earnestly, "Zichen, there's something I want to ask you, and I hope you can agree."

"Go ahead, Coach Lan," Lin Zichen said.

Lin Zichen didn't immediately agree, thinking it better to hear what it was first.

Lan Tianbai didn't beat around the bush and straightforwardly said, "I believe that with your strength, you're the most suitable person to be the leader of this Alien Human Level team."

"I hope you will take the initiative to lead the team when they leave the city to face the battle."

"At that time, Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao might disagree, unwilling to hand over the leadership of the team to you."

"If that happens, directly suppress them and seize the speaking power of the team."

"Actually, if I spoke up, they would give you the speaking power of the team, but my relationship with them is too close, and it doesn't suit me to do so."

After saying so much, it was clear that Lan Tianbai didn't want to be the bad guy and was pushing the dirty work onto Lin Zichen.

Realizing this, Lin Zichen decisively refused without a second thought:

"Coach Lan, I'm still just a novice, unfamiliar with the people in the team, I can't lead them."

"The task of leading the team, I think it's better to continue to leave it to Zhao Qingxian and Zhang Tao."

"As for me, I'd rather just be a team member."

Why would he agree to be the villain without any benefits?

If Lan Tianbai had offered an Exotic Fruit or some other form of compensation, Lin Zichen might have agreed.

Seeing that Lin Zichen didn't agree, Lan Tianbai wanted to persuade him but didn't know how to start.

In the end, he had to drop the matter as if nothing had happened. Discover hidden content at empire

After the two returned to the team,

Shen Qinghan immediately asked curiously, "Lin Zi, what did the coach talk to you about?"

"Nothing much, he just wanted me to forcefully seize control of the team's speaking rights and lead the team in the big battle three days from now," Lin Zichen said without any concealment.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qinghan simply nodded his head and didn't inquire further.

...

Time flew.

Suddenly, it was three days later.

The day they were to leave the city for battle.

Dawn.

It was still dark.

The square in front of the city gate had gathered nearly ten thousand people.

Among these ten thousand people:

90% were High-Level Creatures.

9% were Rare-Level Creatures.

0.9999% were Epic-Level Creatures.

Only the remaining 0.0001% were Legendary-Level Creatures.

"Today!"

"Is the day we go out to face the enemies from Sun-Moon Sacred Land and the Land of Oblivion!"

"Does everyone have confidence?"

"Yes!!!"

On top of the high walls of the city gate.

As the City Lord, Qin Chuan was shouting, trying to boost morale in his own way.

The soldiers below responded with boiling enthusiasm.

Lin Zichen was also among those soldiers.

But he was different from the others.

At that moment, his heart was completely calm, focused only on killing more enemies to obtain Evolution Resources, nothing else.

He felt that maybe it was because he hadn't been in the Origin Land for long and hadn't fully integrated yet.

In simple terms, he lacked a sense of belonging.

Conversely, Shen Qinghan, who was also new, was moved by the invigorating shouts around her.

"City Lord Shangguan, you lead the team responsible for opposing the strong ones from Sun-Moon Sacred Land!"

"White City Lord, you lead the team responsible for opposing the strong ones from the Land of Oblivion, which is relatively unfamiliar, making this task potentially very challenging."

"Everyone else, all of you get to the frontline battlefield and drive out any invaders that have breached into the stable area!"

Qin Chuan yelled from the platform.

The moment his voice fell, the soldiers below immediately responded energetically.

In the center of these soldiers,

Lan Tianbai, standing upright as an instructor in front of the team, seriously advised the 28 Alien Human-Level Geniuses before him:

"Once the city gate opens later, you 28 will act as one unit, make sure to stay together, and don't overindulge in heroics."

"Also, if you encounter a powerful enemy and find you can't defeat them, flee immediately; don't try to resist stubbornly."

"Next, as soon as the gates open, follow the Rare-Level team led by General Lu, responsible for cleaning up whatever that team can't handle."

"..."

After hearing Lan Tianyun's words,

all the Alien Human-Level Geniuses nodded, indicating they understood what to do.

...

About half an hour later.

"Open the gates!"

With Qin Chuan's shout, the city gates made of special huge stones instantly swung open.

The moment the city gates opened, the soldiers on the square, all trained and disciplined, charged out.

Those who could fly took to the air, those who couldn't ran.

In an instant, thousands upon thousands of people streamed out towards the enemy, located dozens of miles away.
