Chapter 448: New Mission
Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
After dealing with the mutated beast and Zhang Bufan, Zhou Hao quietly walked out of the City Lord Hall.
Soon, the news in the city caused an uproar.
The City Lord, who was originally loved and supported by the people, had now become a hypocrite!
Everything he did had been instructed by the mutated beasts!
He had only done those things to gain the trust of the people so that he could help the mutated beasts in the future!
‘When the people learned of this news, they all instantly cursed!
Everyone simply felt abnormally furious!
They had not expected to be deceived like this. It was simply too much.
Zhang Bufan’s death was well deserved.
Zhou Hao walked out of Garden City and thought to himself that the person who assigned him the two missions would probably arrive soon. He wondered how many more missions he had to complete.
Just as this thought appeared in Zhou Hao’s mind, he saw a figure suddenly appear in front of him.
It was the mysterious person who had assigned him the missions.
Zhou Hao was already used to it. Therefore, he stood rooted to the ground and did not say anything. Instead, he waited quietly for the other party to assign him the next mission.
Indeed, he was once again assigned to kill someone in this next mission.
“The third mission is relatively dangerous. You have to enter the depths of the territory of the mutated beasts and kill the retired governor of South City, Liang Zhichao.”
“Liang Zhichao has already been proven to have colluded with the mutated beasts. His crimes are unforgivable. Now, he has escaped and is hiding on the Green Stone Mountain where the mutated beasts gather. This person is a first-grade supernatural expert and is sinister and cunning. Remember to be
careful.”
After hearing the mysterious man’s words, Zhou Hao immediately nodded and did not ask further. He turned around and prepared to leave.
‘The mysterious man looked indifferently at the distant Zhou Hao, and a strange expression suddenly appeared on his face.
“The assessment is already halfway through. I hope you can finish it without any problems. Don’t let us down.”
However, Zhou Hao had not heard this. He was busy checking the location of the Green Stone Mountain on his phone.
Soon, Zhou Hao found information regarding the Green Stone Mountain on his phone.
A lot of mutated beasts were gathered at the Green Stone Mountain, but most of them were low-level mutated beasts that could not transform. Someone like Zhou Hao would have no problem killing them.
However, in this case, the strength of the enemies was not as important as the number.
If he only had to face a few hundred ferocious beasts at the same time, Zhou Hao could still easily deal with them.
However, if there were thousands of them, it would be somewhat difficult for Zhou Hao to deal with them.
After all, if the number was too great, even he would find it somewhat troublesome to deal with.
Therefore, this time, he needed to be careful.
Zhou Hao knew that this test was a test of his strength.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been assigned this mission. While he was good at using his strength, he also had to think about how to avoid fighting these low-level ferocious beasts head-on.
Soon, Zhou Hao arrived at the entrance of the Green Stone Mountain.
This place was heavily guarded and all the guards were on high alert, staring fixedly at the Green Stone Mountain to prevent any ferocious beasts from suddenly charging down and disturbing the safety of the human world.
One of the guard’s expression immediately darkened when he saw Zhou Hao. He stepped forward and asked solemnly, “Who are you? This is a forbidden area for mutated beasts. No unrelated people are allowed to come here!”
‘When Zhou Hao heard this, he immediately explained, “Everyone, I’m here for a mission. This is my pass.”
The leader of the guards received Zhou Hao’s pass. After taking a look, he nodded and let him in. “You have to be careful.”
“Thank you.”
Zhou Hao took back his pass and walked into the mutated beast forest.
The few soldiers looked at Zhou Hao’s anxious figure as he walked up the mountain and could not help but shake their heads indifferently. They said helplessly, “This brat is probably done for.”
Zhou Hao did not care about the discussion behind him at all.
He looked around curiously and immediately searched for the most favorable observation spot. He planned to see where Liang Zhichao was most likely hiding.
On the peak of the Green Stone Mountain, the forest was lush with leaves. Moreover, there were many caves. Perhaps this was the most advantageous place for Liang Zhichao to hide.
Thinking of this, Zhou Hao immediately strode forward and rushed to the top of the Green Stone Mountain.
‘The journey up the mountain was relatively smooth. Zhou Hao used the terrain and easily dodged the spots where the ferocious beasts were gathered.
Then, he arrived in front of a cave.
Zhou Hao observed carefully and realized that the weeds at the entrance of the cave had been flattened. Moreover, there was a faint burning smell in the cave.
It was very likely that Liang Zhichao was hiding here.
Just as Zhou Hao was about to enter, a figure quickly rushed out of the cave!
The figure looked to be in his thirties. His clothes were dirty and tattered, making it impossible to tell what he originally looked like. The man also looked very pitiful.
He did not even turn around and ran forward with all his might!
Seeing this, Zhou Hao immediately frowned.
He did not hesitate and immediately strode forward to chase after the other party.
The further he chased, the more Zhou Hao discovered that this damn bastard was actually charging towards the place with the most mutated beasts!
Unexpectedly, this Liang Zhichao was actually so cautious. He knew that he had been discovered, so he actually used such a method to prepare for a life and death struggle!
Zhou Hao’s heart was filled with anger. He could not help but speed up and quickly chase after the other party.
Zhou Hao’s cultivation was originally much stronger than Liang Zhichao’s. After all, how much trouble could a mere first-grade supernatural expert cause him?
Not long after, Zhou Hao grabbed Liang Zhichao’s collar and shouted threateningly, “Run, go on. Keep running.”
Liang Zhichao’s breathing began to become incomparably anxious, and he panted nervously. He looked at Zhou Hao in front of him in panic and helplessness and said hesitantly, “You…”
“Who are you? How did you know I was here?”
“Tm the person who will be taking your life!”
‘As soon as Zhou Hao finished speaking, the dagger in his hand was instantly unsheathed. Just as he was about to end Liang Zhichao’s life with a single slash, he suddenly saw Liang Zhichao’s eyes turn red and blood flow from the corner of his mouth. He looked incomparably crazy!
This scene immediately made Zhou Hao’s expression sink.
He stared fixedly at Liang Zhichao in front of him and even wondered if he had seen wrongly.
However, when he looked at Liang Zhichao again, he could not suppress the anger in his heart.. He shouted back, “You actually modified your body and became a mutated human?”
