I am grinding experience in another world

```

The night at Dingyou Camp.

Inside the Logistics Army's tent, the snores were thunderous.

Chen Mu stared at the tent ceiling, unable to sleep with worry.

"How did things get to this point?" Chen Mu couldn't figure it out.

I only threw a pebble, so why did it trigger a landslide?

"Don't panic, it's not that bad yet," Chen Mu tried to remain calm.

"Even in a three-way melee, the first targets should be each side's elite forces."

"There's no need for them to trouble us laborers, right?" Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

Moreover, night raids are different from frontal assaults. To maintain secrecy, the number of troops can't be large, and all must be elites.

"Decapitation strikes are the best option," Chen Mu's eyes lit up.

"And the most detailed part of the map I gave them is of the Tangshan Army's camp."

"It's like throwing a bone right next to a dog. They can't not bite," he said.

"That's a relief, that's a relief..." Chen Mu sighed with relief.

"Even if someone does come, they'd probably just start a fire, create a little chaos," Chen Mu finally put his mind at ease.

...

"Let me tell you. I chose to attack the Laborer Camp for good reason," Zhang Ye said with a self-satisfied face.

He was the gang leader again!

"The Tangshan Army's elites are well-trained; we ragtag bunch can't handle them."

"But the Laborer Camp is just a group of suffering laborers."

"What are we? Ruffians, hoodlums, gang leaders."

"Bullying these laborers is our main business," Zhang Ye chattered away happily to Kui Tuo.

"We don't even have to fight. Just set a couple of fires, brandish our big knives and shout loudly, scatter the people, and they'll collapse on their own."

"Then we grab a few examples, beat them up badly, and we'll easily control that group of laborers," Zhang Ye was very familiar with this kind of procedure.

"Is it really that simple?" Kui Tuo was skeptical.

He used to run errands. How could he understand the operations of a gang leader?

"Believe me, I used to be the boss of a gang," Zhang Ye said confidently.

"But your gang is gone," Kui Tuo said dimly.

Zhang Ye: "..."

"How are you talking to me! Am I not your leader anymore!" Zhang Ye fumed.

"Fine then," Kui Tuo smacked his lips, not arguing further.

"Let me tell you, this mission is a piece of cake. For us, it's as easy as reaching into a bag and taking what we want," Zhang Ye laughed heartily.

Kui Tuo: "..."

Reaching into a bag for it again?

This is asking for trouble!

...

Boom!

In the dead of night, a thunderous explosion awoke Chen Mu in an instant.

The two little paper figures lying atop the tent immediately flew into the sky. From afar, they saw flames rising high into the sky from the direction of the Tangshan Army camp.

"They've come!" Chen Mu exhaled in relief.

Having been on tenterhooks the whole time, he was no longer tense now that the attack had started.

"I guessed right; the Startling Swan Gang is attacking the Tangshan Army camp first."

Only then did he truly feel relieved.

But in the next moment, a great fire suddenly erupted in the Laborer Camp marked with the letter 'A', and cries and shouts of killing could be heard.

"This... This isn't right, is it?"

Before he could make sense of it, a group of men clad in black stormed into the Dingyou Laborer Camp.

They carried bundles of torches, throwing them as they ran.

In their hands they held big knives, chopping down any laborer they saw running about.

In less than thirty breaths, every laborer camp was plunged into chaos.

Chen Mu: "..."

This isn't what I expected at all!

Has the Startling Swan Gang gone mad, ignoring the Tangshan Army camp to attack the Laborer Camp?!

Watching the chaos unfold through the little paper figures' feedback, Chen Mu was dumbfounded.

...

"Who is attacking us?!" Short and stocky Zheng Yuan got up, his small eyes filled with panic: "Shall we run for it?"

"In this time of war and chaos, running out will only get you killed faster," Sun Enqi said worryingly.

```

"Being blocked in here is death anyway!" Zheng Yuan's small eyes bulged out roundly.

"Then what do you suggest we do?" Sun Enqi slapped his huge belly, both scared and angry.

"Dawang, is the little path you use to sneak out of the camp safe?" Zheng Yuan's small eyes rolled around.

Chen Mu looked at the short stocky man in surprise. His brain is quite quick.

"That way is already blocked." Chen Mu said helplessly.

The little paper man had already inspected the entire camp.

The attack on the Laborer Camp was not by one or two people, but a large group of elite forces striking simultaneously.

Not only were there strong ruffians, but he also discovered two Wandering Soul experts?!

These people seemed to hold a grudge against the laborers, killing anyone they saw.

Chen Mu suddenly understood.

The Laborer Camp was a leek field for cultivating Netherworld Thread.

Although the details were unknown, it was certain that the Tangshan Army required Netherworld Thread to deal with Ghosts.

Destroying the leek field was the best way to weaken the Tangshan Army.

"I've made a miscalculation." Chen Mu sighed.

"Does that mean we have to wait here for death?!" Zheng Yuan's face was full of despair.

Chen Mu had a resigned look on his face; he truly was not the type for planning and strategy.

Nothing ever developed according to his expectations.

"We can only try to hide for now." He lifted the floor bedding helplessly and kicked open the bottom plank, revealing a dark, gaping hole.

"Let's go, let's hide down there for a bit."

Zheng Yuan stared at Chen Mu, dumbfounded.

"When did you dig this? I sleep right next to you, how come I didn't hear a thing?!"

"I've just dug it." Chen Mu said indifferently.

"You're lying to a ghost!" Zheng Yuan's face showed disbelief.

Chen Mu gave him a glance: "So, are you coming down or not?"

"Down, down, down..." The many Logistics Army soldiers immediately beamed with smiles.

"Dawang is quite capable." Sun Enqi said, full of emotion.

"Hurry up, otherwise, they'll be blocking our door soon." Chen Mu rolled his eyes.

With his current strength, he could escape easily. But wouldn't that be too conspicuous?

Better to hide in the hole. After tonight, he could continue being a member of the Logistics Army.

...

"See, isn't it just like I said, very simple." Zhang Ye held a torch in one hand and a large saber in the other, smugly triumphant.

"Once we get these laborers under control, can't we just make a fortune easily?!"

The numerous subordinates around him could not help but break into joyful laughter.

Zhang Ye bumped Kui Tuo with his shoulder: "You believe me now, right?"

"A hundred percent!" A gang member next to him shouted excitedly.

"I'm going in!"

"Go ahead." Zhang Ye waved his hand nonchalantly, looking very pleased with himself.

Dozens of men around him immediately rushed into the camp like a swarm of bees.

Then they were thrown back out at even greater speed.

A figure clad in a black cloak slowly emerged from a nearby tent.

He held an Incense Burner in his left hand and wore a White Jade Bracelet on his right.

Noticing the laborers around him who had been injured or killed by the great fire, the man in black said coldly, "Now that they're dead, you'll stay to replace them."

Suddenly, he lifted his right hand and made a grabbing motion towards the crowd.

Whoosh!

A gang member, as if held by an invisible hand, was instantly crushed into a spray of blood.

"What do we do now, boss?!" The gang members who were just excited became panic-stricken.

Zhang Ye kept his composure and looked at the crowd: "As they say, wealth is up to fate, life and death are predestined, take a chance..."

"Chance my ass! Run now!" Kui Tuo cut off Zhang Ye's rambling and, together with Zhen Fan, picked up Zhang Ye and ran.

While running, they couldn't help but curse bitterly.

"This is what you called picking up an easy win?"

Zhang Ye, held head and foot by the two men, had his face full of contemplation: "Perhaps my pockets are too deep to reach."

"Yeah, deep up to your neck!" Kui Tuo couldn't help but curse loudly.

"What kind of karma did you create?"

"Ever since I met you, I haven't had a single good day."

Zhang Ye looked resigned: "I wish I knew..."
