Lin Mo felt a dryness in his throat.

Leader level.

Three more, please.

Judging from the current situation, those guys would have a hard time dealing with even an elite-level monster.

"Are you trying to kill me?"

Lin Mo stared at the ball of light.

This is a monthly performance review and cannot be modified.

The system's response was devoid of emotion.

Lin Mo fell silent.

Silence spread through the empty shop.

A deathly silence.

Lin Mo leaned against the newly upgraded metal countertop, his fingers unconsciously tapping the cold surface.

Da, da, da.

The rapid pace revealed his inner anxiety at that moment.

Thirty days.

Three leader-level, five hundred elite-level, and countless servant-level.

It's extremely difficult.

The only solution now is to call in reinforcements.

A large number of people.

Moreover, they must be ruthless individuals with innate combat skills, capable of fighting with a gun or slashing with a knife.

Lin Mo suddenly sat up straight.

"system."

"Help me contact Chi Zhengyang."

The ball of light swayed in the air.

[Initiating cross-temporal communication request...]

[Note: Real-time cross-dimensional communication consumes a lot of resources.]

[Pricing: 500 revenue per minute.]

[Any time less than one minute will be charged as one minute.]

Lin Mo's fingers, which were tapping the table, froze.

"Take away the young master?"

"You mean Duo Shao?!"

He almost thought he had misheard.

"Five hundred in sales?! That's outrageous! Why don't you just rob someone?"

The system is really feeling wronged.

【I'm really wronged. Time-traveling calls consume a lot of energy, and if you really think it's expensive, you don't have to use this feature.】

"..."

Lin Mo was so angry that his teeth ached.

But he had no choice.

Because this call had to be made.

After all, it concerns his life.

"Connect me right away!"

【receive. 】

[Connecting...]

Besides, I'm truly innocent...

Lin Mo: "..."

......

the other side.

Chi Zhengyang was buried in a pile of documents.

The intelligence brought back by Chen Feng and his group was astonishing. The variety of monsters and their terrifying strength always shocked him!

Just then.

The phone, which was placed in the most conspicuous position, suddenly vibrated.

There is no caller ID.

Only a garbled symbol was jumping around on the screen.

Chi Zhengyang's heart skipped a beat.

This level of encrypted gibberish only exists in that one place.

He grabbed the receiver.

"Feed?"

Lin Mo's urgent voice came through the receiver, accompanied by a crackling sound of electricity in the background.

"Elder Chi, it's me, Lin Mo."

It's really him.

Chi Zhengyang was about to exchange a few polite words and ask about his recent situation.

Lin Mo didn't give him a chance at all, speaking as fast as a machine gun.

"To make a long story short, this phone call was ridiculously expensive."

"I'm in a real hurry."

"My general store just reached level 2, and the system has put me through a monthly assessment."

"A month from now, a beast horde will attack the city."

"Extremely difficult; failure means instant elimination."

Chi Zhengyang tightened his grip on the receiver, his expression instantly becoming serious.

"What do you need me to do?"

"people!"

Lin Mo said firmly.

"I need manpower."

"The population cap for a level 2 general store has been increased to 1000 people."

"After removing the existing 10, I have 990 more slots."

Chi Zhengyang suddenly stood up.

The chair scraped against the floor with a harsh sound.

"A thousand people?"

Happiness came too suddenly.

I originally thought there were only ten spots available, but the number suddenly increased a hundredfold.

This means that more people can be sent, and the efficiency of resource acquisition will increase exponentially.

"no problem!"

Chi Zhengyang agreed quickly.

"We have staff available anytime, as many as you need."

"Listen to my thoughts first," Lin Mo interrupted his excitement.

Time is money, and now he finally understands what it means to have an inch of time worth an inch of gold.

"I hope to divide these 990 places into three batches."

"Among them, 970 are elites."

"Ideally, they should be elite soldiers, with strong combat capabilities, who can immediately contribute upon arrival."

"The remaining 20 spots."

"Find me 10 popular game streamers."

"Find 10 more interested casual players."

Chi Zhengyang was stunned for a moment.

"I understand that the King of Soldiers is here to deal with the beast tide."

"But what's the point of this, streamers and casual viewers?"

In his view, this was a complete waste of precious spots.

"For the sake of the market," Lin Mo quickly said.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Wasteland Era will be available to the public soon."

"The grocery store will be upgraded in the future, and then it will need tens of thousands of people."

"Relying solely on our official personnel is definitely not enough."

"Let's take advantage of the time we still have and build up the buzz."

"I will grant those ten streamers special streaming privileges to kick off the pre-release promotion for 'Wasteland Era'."

"Of course, these 10 game streamers should ideally be skilled, and they can't be male. As for the reason, those who know, know."

"After this monthly assessment, I should have enough sales to upgrade my general store to level 3, and then I'll have more openings."

As for why it's a month later...

Because Lin Mo was afraid that the difficulty of the monthly assessment would suddenly increase, the most important thing was to save his own life!

"As for those 10 casual players, they can be used to see the real reactions of ordinary people to Wasteland Era."

Chi Zhengyang nodded, finding it feasible.

"Okay, I will get it done as soon as possible."

Chi Zhengyang glanced at the clock on the wall.

"It will take a little time to assemble the personnel. Give me two hours, and I guarantee I can get the first batch of personnel in place for you."

"As for the streamer and the 10 individual participants, it may take some time, but I can assure you, it will be by tonight at the latest."

The business is over.

Chi Zhengyang hesitated for a moment, but still spoke.

"Um... Comrade Lin Mo..."

"There's something else."

"It's basic life-saving potions. Do you think it's possible to... send a batch back first?"

Lin Mo nodded in agreement: "Okay, but it will take a while, the store doesn't have much stock left."

"I understand." Chi Zhengyang breathed a sigh of relief.

He could wait that long.

Lin Mo: "Is there anything else? After all, phone calls are quite expensive, 500 yuan for one minute, and any less than one minute is charged as one minute. It's about to exceed one minute, so if there's nothing else, let's leave it at that."

"That's all, Comrade Lin Mo. I hope you are well."

Chi Zhengyang had just finished speaking.

Beep—beep—beep—!

A busy signal came through.

Chi Zhengyang held the receiver and gave a wry smile.

That kid.

Without a second's hesitation.

but.

Can understand.

Chi Zhengyang put down the phone, his wry smile vanishing instantly, replaced by a stern and decisive demeanor.

He pressed the communicator on the table.

"Pass the word down."

"Land of Spread" Plan.

"I need 970 of the top special operations soldiers drawn from the major military regions."

"Also, contact the publicity department and find ten of the most popular game streamers."

"Then ten lucky winners will be randomly selected."

"I need to see these people's detailed information within ten minutes!"
