In the courtyard.
The wind howled!
Zhang Mo's figure was like a swimming dragon, every move was grand and sweeping.
Although he wasn't using any martial arts, he exuded a sense of immense power.
“Huh, is it time to eat again?”
He glanced at the sky, retracted his fist, inhaled deeply, and grinned slightly.
Having cultivated numerous external martial arts, his blood and qi had increased, and his appetite had doubled.
He was about to head out to a restaurant.
Ding-ding-ding...
But at that moment, his phone rang.
“Hmm, Chairman Bai?”
Zhang Mo pulled out his phone, checked the caller ID, and answered the call.
“Chairman, anything?”
Bai Cangshan's voice came from the phone: “Yes, there’s progress on the beast issue.”
Zhang Mo’s expression tightened, and he asked earnestly: "What is it?"
“It’s the Zhou family, they’ve been colluding with the beasts.”
Bai Cangshan continued.
“Such a thing?”
Zhang Mo raised his eyebrows slightly.
The Zhou family, they were one of the top families in Tianfeng City, why would they collude with beasts?
Bai Cangshan’s voice continued: “The Zhou family are in the business of medicinal herbs, and recently their material supply has been disrupted…”
At this point.
Zhang Mo understood completely.
Beasts, compared to humans, were much easier to obtain rare resources from the deep wilderness.
In that case, the Zhou family's collaboration with the beasts made sense.
After all, throughout history, as long as the profit was large enough, these merchants could trample on everything.
“Will you be taking action against the Zhou family?” Zhang Mo asked.
Bai Cangshan on the other end of the phone said: “This is what I was going to say next. Colluding with beasts is an unforgivable crime, and you need to come to the Beast Hunter Association, we’ll be taking action against the Zhou family soon.”
Zhang Mo replied, then hung up the phone.
“Looks like I won’t be able to enjoy my meal.”
Zhang Mo quickly packed his things, ordered a large amount of takeout, and ate on the way to the Beast Hunter Association.
During this time!
He noticed that his Hunter’s License also had a summons for Beast Hunters.
Obviously.
This was definitely a major operation.
......
Beast Hunter Association Hall.
Zhang Mo had arrived here.
Other Beast Hunters were already waiting there.
As time passed, almost all the Hunters in Tianfeng City had gathered.
At this moment, Bai Cangshan walked in.
And next to him was a middle-aged man.
He was wearing a military uniform, with a very imposing face.
“Tang Shou?”
Zhang Mo looked at the man, recognizing him at first glance.
He was the Defense Minister of Tianfeng City, in charge of the entire city’s defense army.
Bai Cangshan stood before everyone and said: "I’m glad you all came."
“I’m sure you’re all aware, you will be assisting the Defense Army in eradicating the Zhou family.”
“This mission is very dangerous, but as long as you accept it, regardless of the outcome, everyone will receive a reward of thirty merit points.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of all the Beast Hunters became filled with excitement.
Just for participating in the action, the rewards were not meager.
Bai Cangshan continued: “In addition to this, you will also receive a third-grade Qi Condensation Pill, a second-grade martial art, and a year’s salary.”
“As for other merit points, they will be calculated separately.”
Hearing this, even Zhang Mo’s eyes lit up.
This was truly a generous offer.
Combined, the value of all these things was probably no less than five million.
“To express our gratitude for your assistance, our military will also give you each one million in compensation.”
Tang Shou looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "But I have one requirement, whoever accepts this mission must not shirk their duties during the operation."
“Anyone who wants to quit can do so now.”
Hearing this, no one actually left.
They were Beast Hunters, they wanted to get better resources and martial arts.
With such a good opportunity right in front of them, no one would back down.
Next!
Tang Shou began to assign tasks.
Almost everyone was assigned to an action team from the Defense Army.
Soon!
Zhang Mo followed the instructions and found the third team waiting behind the Association.
There were only a dozen or so people, but without exception, they were all skilled martial artists.
“You’re Zhang Mo, right? Thanks for your help.”
The leading Major saluted Zhang Mo and introduced himself: “I am Captain Wang Sheng of the third team, my cultivation is at the late third-grade, I specialize in swordsmanship.”
The others also introduced themselves in turn.
Since they were going to work together, they needed to know each other to cooperate better.
Zhang Mo also said, “My cultivation is at the peak second-grade, I specialize in external martial arts.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.
They were all true elites of the Defense Army, they naturally knew what it meant for someone like Zhang Mo, at his age, to reach the peak second-grade.
Any contempt that some may have harbored due to Zhang Mo’s age was now gone.
“So you’re a prodigy.”
A smile appeared on Wang Sheng’s lips, but he quickly suppressed it, saying: "Now that everyone knows each other, let’s get to work."
“Our task is to seal off Thirty-sixth Street, to prevent any beasts or Zhou family members from escaping.”
“Okay!”
Zhang Mo nodded, he was very decisive in joining the team.
Even though he was only assisting, since he chose to accept the mission, he wouldn't go against the other party.
After all, even if it wasn’t anyone else, he had to consider that one million.
Seeing Zhang Mo’s straightforwardness, Wang Sheng’s impression of him was even better.
He had worked with other Beast Hunters before.
But those guys were generally arrogant.
If he encountered any troublemakers, it would be a real headache.
Soon!
The various teams here boarded the secret vehicles that had been prepared long ago, and headed towards the heart of the city, the Zhou family mansion.
At this moment!
Tianfeng City, which seemed peaceful and harmonious, was actually full of undercurrents.
