#141 - Defend the city, act cool as the wind!

Chapter 141: City Defense Operation, Posing Like the Wind!

Zhao Zheng emerged from the principal's office with a helpless expression.

The principal had persuaded him to move back to the school temporarily.

Zhao Zheng hadn't resisted without a fight.

He had made various excuses, even saying he enjoyed sunbathing and had bought a sunbathing machine that wouldn't fit in a dormitory.

Unexpectedly, the principal waved his hand and granted him the same treatment as Song Haitang.

An independent dormitory!

The so-called independent dormitory was actually a teacher's residence, just like a normal house, with plenty of space.

Even the largest sunbathing machine could fit.

So, in the end, Zhao Zheng could only agree.

Moreover, to avoid any complications, the principal wanted him to move into the school today.

Zhao Zheng had lunch in the cafeteria at noon.

In the afternoon, he started moving.

...

When Zhao Zheng returned to his apartment.

He found Qin Muyin's door across the hall open.

Inside, Qin Muyin was also packing her things.

"Maybe the front lines? I'm not sure exactly; I'll have to return to headquarters to find out."

Zhao Zheng nodded and then said politely, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time, Sister Qin."

Qin Muyin shook her head with a smile, "I should be thanking you. Although I was stuck here during this time, it was the most relaxed period I've had since joining the Zodiac Bureau. Not to mention, I benefited from you in the fifth level Spirit Realm and received a reward of 20 spirit energy points."

After exchanging a few polite words, they each returned to their rooms to pack.

Although the sunbathing machine was large and heavy, it could be disassembled into several pieces. As for the weight... with Zhao Zheng's current strength, what weight could he not lift?

Not to mention a few hundred pounds of sunbathing equipment, he could even move a large heavy truck!

Zhao Zheng packed the things he wanted to take, and moved everything in two trips.

As for this apartment, he didn't sell it but kept it.

When Zhao Zheng finished moving and was preparing to tidy up his dormitory.

Jiang Hebin, Wang Fei, and others came to his door one after another.

"Brother Zhao, we heard you moved back to the school, so we came to see you."

"Yes! And see if you need any help."

Next.

These guys all scrambled to help Zhao Zheng clean and tidy up his dormitory.

Later, Song Haitang also came to take a look.

That night, Zhao Zheng treated these classmates to a simple meal in the cafeteria.

After eating.

Zhao Zheng had just returned to his dormitory when he received a call from the old man.

"Grandpa? It's so late, aren't you asleep yet?"

"Haha, Grandpa is happy and can't sleep."

Hearing the old man's hearty laughter, Zhao Zheng immediately knew that his eldest cousin must have told the old man about today's events.

"Grandpa, even if you're happy, you should rest early. You must take care of your health and watch me grow. In the future, I will bring the Zhao family to unprecedented heights. You must witness this day with your own eyes!"

These words made the old man very happy.

"Good, good, good, Grandpa will listen to you and go to sleep now! Good grandson, work hard, and tell the family if you need anything."

"I know."

Hanging up the old man's call.

Zhao Zheng suddenly noticed that Chen Kai had sent him a message a few minutes ago, reminding him that a bounty had been placed on him on the dark web, and the bounty exceeded 100 million!

Seeing this message, Zhao Zheng was not surprised.

Fat Principal had already told him that after his performance today spread, it would definitely attract the attention of interested people.

It was normal for a bounty to appear.

Zhao Zheng opened the internet.

The news of their championship had naturally spread throughout the entire network.

Moreover, the online perception of Zhao Zheng himself had also changed greatly!

"I heard that the Zhenwu University team was able to win the championship entirely due to Zhao Zheng's command?"

"Yes, the news has already spread."

"It is said that Zhao Zheng has a special talent in the Spirit Realm, with amazing insight, able to discover crises that ordinary people cannot."

"I also heard that Zhao Zheng actually deserves credit for Song Haitang's ability to get SSS-level mission evaluations every time."

"If that's the case, then he's not just a gold-digging pretty boy!"

"Hehe, where did so many internet trolls come from, trying to whitewash the Zhao guy? It seems the Zhao family is very rich!"

"Your mom is the troll, are you blind or brain-dead! Don't you know to go look at the official reports?"

Regarding the news on the internet.

Zhao Zheng only glanced at it and didn't look anymore.

Every time after the Spirit Realm, he and Song Haitang were bound to be on the trending searches list. At first, it was very novel, but after doing it many times, it became boring...

...

Time passed quickly.

In the blink of an eye.

A month passed.

Since Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang had been living in the school this month and hadn't gone out, nothing happened this month.

Today is already November 1st.

Early morning.

Zhao Zheng opened his eyes from the sunbathing machine.

Race: Human.

Constitution: 1920

Spirit: 560

Strength: 1920

Agility: 1920

Talent: Kryptonian Bloodline [Steel Body ③, Super Strength ③].

Skills: Fist Bone · Impact, Armament Haki (Grandmaster).

Spirit Energy Points: 345.

...

This was Zhao Zheng's current stats.

Originally, including the championship reward from the fifth level Spirit Realm, Zhao Zheng already had 1145 spirit energy points.

However, during this period, he used 800 spirit energy points to upgrade his Armament Haki level to Grandmaster level.

I have to say.

Grandmaster-level Armament Haki is just different.

Not only is the amplified defense and attack power stronger, but most importantly, releasing Haki can cover the entire body and extend to weapons.

Increasing the weapon's sturdiness, and even its attack power.

Very practical!

Zhao Zheng hadn't tested his current strength.

Anyway, he felt that if he used Fist Bone Impact, no one in Zhenwu University besides Fat Principal should be able to stop him...

After getting up and washing up.

Zhao Zheng first went to the cafeteria for breakfast.

This was the convenience of living in the school, he didn't have to buy breakfast outside.

After all, the breakfast outside wasn't very clean.

Although with Zhao Zheng's body and stomach, even the dirtiest food wouldn't affect him, it was always good to eat something cleaner.

After breakfast, Zhao Zheng went back to his dormitory to rest for a while. It wasn't until ten in the morning that he walked towards the playground.

Today was also the Spirit Realm opening day.

He was going to participate in the adventure of the sixth level Spirit Realm.

By the way.

The sixth level Spirit Realm was an amnesiac Spirit Realm.

The school only knew that the team size was ten people, and nothing else.

As for how they knew the team size of the amnesiac Spirit Realm?

It was very simple!

First, let more people shake hands to form a team and travel through. After coming out, see how many people in each group are still holding hands, and you'll know...

If they weren't teammates, they wouldn't be able to hold hands after returning.

This time, Zhao Zheng's team was almost identical to the one from the fifth level Spirit Realm.

When Zhao Zheng arrived at the training ground, all his teammates were already there except for Song Haitang.

"Brother Zhao, I'm so happy to be fighting alongside you again," Wang Fei said excitedly.

Hearing this, Jiang Hebin laughed from the side, "Stop trying to flatter yourself. It's clearly Brother Zhao carrying us to victory, okay?"

Everyone laughed.

In the distance, the gazes of the other students were full of envy and jealousy.

It is now nationally recognized that teaming up with Zhao Zheng and Song Haitang is equivalent to being carried to victory…

Being carried to victory!

And there's a high probability of getting an SSS-level mission rating. Who wouldn't want that?

Everyone wants to be a "lucky one" like Jiang Hebin and Wang Fei.

It wasn't until 11:00 AM that Song Haitang finally appeared.

Naturally, no one would object to Song Haitang's lateness.

After all, Song Haitang is a special individual, and her safety is more important.

Soon.

11:10 AM arrived.

The school leader in charge of the scene immediately said loudly, "Last minute, everyone get ready!"

Upon hearing this, everyone joined hands.

Ten people per group!

Quickly.

Time's up.

All the freshmen on the training ground disappeared.

…

A flash of white light passed.

When Zhao Zheng and the others regained their sight, they had already arrived in a desolate wilderness.

The sky was gloomy and very oppressive.

It felt like it could rain at any moment.

As for the surroundings, there was nothing but weeds.

"What kind of hellhole is this?"

Wang Fei had just said this.

When a prompt popped up in everyone's left eye:

[Please arrive at any checkpoint before dark.]

In addition to this prompt.

Everyone also discovered that several red arrows had appeared in their left eyes.

Each arrow pointed to a different location and direction.

"Oh my, a red arrow mark has appeared in my left eye," Wang Fei exclaimed exaggeratedly.

Song Haitang said, "It should be an instruction from the Spirit Realm. These marked directions represent the locations of different checkpoints. We need to choose one of them as our destination and get there before dark."

"Or, we can also split up and go to different beacon locations…"

Hearing this.

Everyone immediately fell into thought.

Zhao Zheng glanced at these burdens and said, "Let's not split up. Let's go to one point together!"

As soon as he said this, everyone nodded.

They didn't want to split up either.

After that.

Zhao Zheng casually chose a direction and led everyone to walk.

"It's probably going to get dark soon, everyone speed up."

Zhao Zheng said, looking at Song Haitang, "Haitang, let me carry you!"

This girl mainly adds points in the direction of mental attributes.

I guess her agility attribute is not very high.

That's why Zhao Zheng made such a suggestion.

Song Haitang blushed upon hearing this.

With so many classmates around, she was a little embarrassed to have Zhao Zheng carry her.

However, the girl also knew that the mission was important at the moment, so she didn't object and leaned on Zhao Zheng's back.

Instantly!

Zhao Zheng felt two soft dumplings pressing against his back…

He looked at the others and said, "Students with insufficient agility attributes, find students with faster speeds to help you. I estimate that arriving at the destination before dark should be the first test of the Spirit Realm!"

As soon as he said this, everyone's expression became serious.

Next.

Everyone hurried on their way with all their strength.

Although Zhao Zheng was carrying a Song Haitang, he was still extremely relaxed. In fact, he even needed to deliberately slow down to wait for the other students.

As for Zhao Zheng's speed, although everyone was surprised, they didn't think much about it.

After all, after coming down from the fifth level of the Spirit Realm, Zhao Zheng had obtained a lot of spirit energy points, and it was normal to add agility attributes.

Along the way.

It was very desolate.

I couldn't see any signs of human habitation.

It wasn't until half an hour later that everyone saw a city wall standing between two mountain peaks.

And the location of the city wall was also one of the many checkpoints indicated in the left eye.

From afar.

Zhao Zheng had already seen many city-guarding soldiers wearing ancient armor on the city wall, waiting in full battle array.

"Brother Zhao, the soldiers are wearing ancient armor!"

Jiang Hebin said breathlessly, "We are wearing modern clothes. Will we be caught as alien races when we get closer?"

"We still have to go over, just be careful."

Zhao Zheng said, turning his gaze to Jiang Hebin, and said, "It's your turn, you can undo the transformation, otherwise you will cause unnecessary misunderstandings if you rely on it like this."

At this moment, Jiang Hebin was still maintaining the werewolf transformation state.

He only transformed before in order to hurry.

Hearing Zhao Zheng's reminder, Jiang Hebin quickly returned to human form.

After that.

A group of people approached the city wall.

When they appeared at the edge of the city wall, they were immediately discovered by the soldiers guarding the city.

However, the soldiers did not take any initiative, they just stared at them as they approached.

When Zhao Zheng and others were less than a hundred steps away from the city wall.

The gate of the city wall opened.

A cavalryman riding a horse rushed out from it and shouted to everyone from a distance:

"Stop, who goes there!"

Everyone stopped and secretly prepared.

The cavalryman rushed to the front of the crowd, pulled on the reins, and stopped the horse.

"You alien races, are you reinforcements?" the cavalryman asked.

The Spirit Realm has its own translation system.

Everyone can understand the cavalryman's question.

Just when everyone felt inexplicable, a task prompt suddenly popped up in their left eye:

[Basic task: Help the border guards defend the checkpoint!]

[Main task: Kill the monsters!]

[Task time: 12 hours.]

[Hint: The more monsters you kill within the task time, the higher the task evaluation you get…]

Seeing the task prompt.

Everyone was shocked.

Then they all looked at Zhao Zheng.

Although Zhao Zheng didn't say anything this time, everyone was still used to following his command.

Because in the fifth level Spirit Realm, Zhao Zheng's command conquered them.

Seeing this, Zhao Zheng immediately said, "Yes, we are here to help you defend the checkpoint."

The cavalryman glanced at Zhao Zheng and the others upon hearing this, and seeing that there were only ten of them, his expression was a little disdainful, but he didn't say much.

"If that's the case, then come with me!"

After the words fell, the cavalryman drove his horse and turned back.

"We follow."

Zhao Zheng said, taking the first step and walking towards the city wall.

He was confident in his strength and was not afraid of the cavalryman playing tricks, nor was he afraid of any traps in the city wall.

The others followed suit.

And not long after they entered the city wall, more transcendents came here.

…

(PS: Pure pretending Spirit Realm, I hope everyone is satisfied!)
