Chapter 80 - Blood Sacrifice
n
n
nYun Yan shook her head.
"We don't know the exact situation, but we do know that the Dark Gods probably have their eyes on your sister because of her physique. It seems that they want to use her for a blood sacrifice. However, that's only if your sister's strength reaches a certain level.
"
nZhang Yi almost broke down when he heard about the blood sacrifice, but his eyes widened after hearing the rest.
n
"Yun Yan, you… you mean that until my sister matures and meets the requirements of the blood sacrifice, she will be safe, right?
"
nXu Ling and the other students nodded and said in unison,
"Yes!
"
nZhou Hao asked,
"Do you know where Zhang Ying was taken to?
"
n
"It's the Dark Gods headquarters!
" A voice suddenly sounded from the entrance of the medical office.
nThe students automatically opened a path and Shen Jing walked over.
nZhang Yi and Zhou Hao hurriedly got up.
nShen Jing waved his hand.
"You don't have to move. Zhang Yi, according to our understanding, other people from different cities have also been taken away by the Dark Gods. The blood sacrifice held by the Dark Gods is very mysterious. They have to bring those people to the headquarters to train them until they meet the requirements.
"
n
"Therefore, your sister is safe until she meets the requirements for the blood sacrifice.
"
nHearing Instructor Shen say this, Zhang Yi immediately relaxed.
nZhou Hao asked,
"Instructor, may I ask how long it will take for the Dark Gods to nurture Zhang Ying and the others who have been captured?
"
nZhang Yi was stunned for a moment before looking at Instructor Shen nervously.
nInstructor Shen shook his head.
"We're not too sure about that either. We only know that the requirements for the blood sacrifice are very strict. Even if the Dark Gods are able to obtain a lot of resources, they will still need at least a year to prepare!
"
nZhou Hao and Zhang Yi looked at each other.
n
"In other words, we only have a year!
" Zhang Yi clenched his fists tightly.
nInstructor Shen nodded.
"That's right. If you want to save your sister, you have to advance to the master level within this year.
"
nZhang Yi gritted his teeth and said firmly,
"I will!
"
nInstructor Shen sighed in his heart. Actually, he was only giving Zhang Yi hope. After all, the Dark Gods were too powerful. If there was already a grandmaster holding down the fort at the residential area stronghold, then just what kind of expert awaited them at the headquarters?
nTurning around, Shen Jing swept his gaze over the other students and said slowly,
"All of you have done well in this Dark Gods Operation. The school and commander Zhao have unanimously decided to hold an award ceremony for all of you the day after tomorrow. At that time, Commander Zhao and the other grandmaster experts will personally give you the medal.
"
n
"What? An award ceremony?
"
n
"That's great. A grandmaster-level expert will even be there to personally give us the medal!
"
n
"Ahhh, I can't wait!
"
nThe students were pleasantly surprised.
nEven Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the other Yanjing geniuses couldn't help but be excited. It was a supreme honor to receive a medal of honor from a grandmaster.
nShen Jing waved his hand, and everyone instantly fell silent.
n
"Don't be happy yet!
" Instructor Shen's expression suddenly turned unsightly, and his tone became solemn.
"By removing the Dark Gods' stronghold this time, we have also attracted the attention of the experts from the Dark Gods headquarters. Now, even the foreign races will place their attention on our Huadong City.
"
n
"Therefore, our Huadong City might start facing some great pressure.
"
nXu Ling and the other students' hearts skipped a beat when they heard this, and their hearts instantly became heavy.
nInstructor Shen continued,
"After the award ceremony, I will train you guys even more strictly and forcefully!
"
nUpon hearing this, many students immediately complained.
nEven Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the others had bitter expressions. They knew very well how abnormal Instructor Shen's strict training was.
nIt was simply hellish.
n…
nAt night.
nIn the cool moonlight…
nZhou Hao returned to the entrance of the Yang Garden Residence.
nLooking at the warm lights inside, he collected his emotions and walked in.
n
"Little Hao, you're back. Quickly wash your hands. The food will be ready soon. Today is your favorite braised carp and tofu with bamboo shoots!
"
nAs soon as Zhou Hao entered, he heard his mom's laughter in the kitchen.
nHis father, who was reading the newspaper, also smiled and looked at Zhou Hao.
"Son, are you tired from the training camp?
"
nThe two of them knew that Zhou Hao had entered the focused training class.
nThis was something they had coincidentally heard when Zhou Hao was on the phone with Xu Ling. At that time, they were so happy that their mouths were wide open. Even the dinner that night was much more sumptuous.
n
"I'm not tired. It's pretty fulfilling.
" Zhou Hao washed his hands and said,
"The instructor said that I'll reach the second level of blood essence soon!
"
nZhou Xueguo immediately put down the newspaper and said in surprise,
"Really?
"
nZhou Hao said casually,
"How could it be a lie? The instructor said so himself!
"
n
"Good, good!
" Zhou Xueguo became excited.
"Son, work hard and break through to the second level of blood essence. You have a chance to become a martial artist in the future!
"
nAt this moment, Wang Shuyuan walked out with two plates of food and placed them on the dining table. Seeing that Zhou Xueguo was so excited, she could not help but ask him a few questions.
nZhou Xueguo repeated Zhou Hao's words.
nWang Shuyun was immediately excited. She planted a few kisses on Zhou Hao's forehead.
"Son, you're really something. Haha, our family is going to have a martial artist too!
"
nZhou Hao was speechless.
"Dad, Mom, why are you so happy just because your son is a martial artist?!
"
nZhou Xueguo stared at him.
"Son, do you know how many people dream of becoming a martial artist? Once you become a martial artist, you can kill foreign races and work for the city!
"
n
"Your father's dream back then was to become a martial artist!
"
nZhou Hao hurriedly said,
"Yes, yes, Dad. I'll work hard to become a martial artist!
"
nAs he spoke, he couldn't help but ridicule in his heart. If they knew that his son had already easily killed a high king-level demon beast, they would probably be so excited that they wouldn't be able to sleep for a month.
n
"Alright, I'm happy today. Son, drink with me!
"
nAfter eating for more than half an hour, Zhou Xueguo pulled Zhou Hao to drink and chat until 9: 30 before letting him sleep.
nLying in bed, Zhou Hao looked at the starlight shining in from the window and gradually calmed down.
nThe biggest reason why Zhou Hao had cleaned the wilderness area and uprooted the Dark Gods was still to protect his family.
nOpening the virtual screen, he habitually glanced at the luck points.
nLuck Points: 893,100 (Current level: overwhelming luck)
nZhou Hao was shocked.
"More than 50,000 luck points? Could it be…
"
nHe could not help but think of the bronze-masked man he had killed today. It seemed that he was able to drop luck points after transforming into a hideous creature.
n
"The Dark Gods are really an evil organization. Even their luck point system considers them to be a foreign race!
" Sighing, he subconsciously clicked on the shop section and arrived at the mystery box interface.
nLarge amounts of boxes flashed past as they were opened. Most of them still contained roses, Heaven Dao coins, and other trash.
n
"890,000. I'm almost at 1 million!
" Anticipation flashed in his eyes.
nAt the Dark Gods headquarters.
nIn the incomparably spacious hall, roars sounded.
"Damn it, Damn it. A mere Huadong City actually destroyed a stronghold of my Dark Gods!
"
n
"Shadow.
"
nA ball of black gas surged out from the darkness.
"Yes, sir.
"
n
"Go, inform the Cloud Mink Royal Family outside the Huadong City that our Dark Gods are willing to cooperate with them. Together, we will make Huadong City disappear from this land!
"
