Chapter 90 - 90: Winter Vacation Mercenaries
November 18th.
After having breakfast in the third-floor restaurant, Jack put on his battle armor, strapped on his long knife, and then took the elevator to the first floor with Justin Welan.
He then discovered that the layout of the first floor had changed a lot today.
A few more staff members had been added to the original reception area, with a sign on the counter that read Mission Location.
At the same time, a huge LCD screen was hung on the wall behind them, displaying a high-definition map of Lester City and the surrounding villages and towns.bender
Zac Lyons, White Veil Marcus Lee and the others were standing in front of the counter talking about something.
Jack walked over curiously, Mission location? What is that?
Jack, youre here.
We just asked, and it seems that the Federation has integrated data from all parties to preliminarily establish an intelligence department covering the entire Koroya, divided by city.
Starting today, we dont need to run around looking for the whereabouts of blood disciples ourselves, we just need to wait for missions in the hotel.
When the local department obtains information about blood disciples or rebels, they will release missions to us, which makes the process faster and more accurate.
As for the Contribution Points, they will be calculated based on the completion of the mission, including some non-slaying blood disciple missions, which will also be rewarded.
It does make things a lot more convenient. Jack nodded.
The situation in Lester City had struck him as a mess.
The official institutions were paralyzed, the law enforcement departments were being re-established, and the rebel cultists were infiltrating and fighting with the military from time to time.
But after more than ten days, the situation had finally stabilized.
However, looking at this mission release platform, Jack felt an inexplicable sense of incongruity. He felt like he was going abroad as a mercenary during the winter break.
At this time, White Veil called, Beauty, beauty, has the mission not been refreshed yet?
The female staff member behind the counter smiled politely and said, Im sorry, we are currently liaising with various departments, and there are no missions being refreshed in the background for the time being.
At this time, Sylvia Lyons came out of the elevator and waved her hand to disperse the crowd. Alright, dont surround here. Data sorting takes some time.
As everyone dispersed, Sylvia Lyons called out to Jack, Jack, hold on.
Whats the matter, maam? Jack paused.
Sylvia Lyons smiled, I just happen to have a mission for you.
In more than two hours, a group of freshmen will arrive in Lester City by plane. They come from two second-tier universities, totaling about thirty people.
Originally, Colonel Cameron Raven was supposed to greet them, but he and I have something urgent to attend to, so we plan to hand it over to you.
Take a few others with you later to greet them, and be their guides. Introduce them to the situation here and things they need to be aware of.
The reward will be five contribution points.
After finishing, Sylvia Lyons quickly left the lobby, as if she really had something urgent to deal with.
Jack, pick me.
Jack, arent we good brothers?
Jack, I want to go too
As soon as Sylvia Lyons left, Jack was surrounded by a group of classmates who were all eager to go with him to welcome the new students.
Without saying anything, there was one Contribution Point to be gained just by going around, like picking up freebies, and they could also show off in front of the new students. These guys were all excited.
Ahem!
Jack coughed dryly, Brothers, there are only 5 points of contribution for this mission. Its not enough to share.
Its okay, we dont want Contribution Points.
I dont want any either.
We mainly want to show off, ahem, explain our experiences of tracking and killing those blood disciples to the new students who have just arrived.
I want to show off my wings to the new beauties.
Whats so good about wings? Are they as handsome as my Golden Armor?
Seeing everyones enthusiasm, Jack naturally could not refuse. He could only accept all the rewards with a tearful smile and set off with ten enthusiastic classmates.
Among them were Justin Welan and Zac Lyons, as well as White Veil Marcus Lee and Mullen Weisz.
Of course, not all classmates were interested in welcoming new people. Some went back to practice, while others waited in the rest area.
Since they were all wearing battle armor, the use of cars and buses would be inconvenient, so Jack asked the base for three military transport trucks and drivers, and headed directly to the airport.
More than ten days had passed, and the destroyed road had been initially leveled and could be driven on directly.
However, when Jack passed through the small town, he looked around and found that everything was normal, with no discoveries.
It was still the same military airport, but the overall structure had been repaired, and the place looked less dilapidated. The stationed soldiers were still the same small team.
Standing by the runway, everyone leaned against the truck, bored. Zac Lyons said enviously, I heard that after Howard Lee absorbed the Demonic Beast Blood Essence, his strength skyrocketed like crazy.
Mullen Weisz nodded, Indeed, the day before yesterday, I was tracking a Second Layer Blood Disciple with him and the disciple tried to escape in an off-road vehicle.
Goodness, Howard directly smashed the person and the car with a single pillar, an absolute monster.
Wow, thats amazing. Marcus Lee exclaimed.
Mullen Weisz: I suspect he has already broken through the Third Layer Heaven.
Really? So soon? Zac Lyons wondered.
Its possible.
Justin Welan analyzed, He absorbed the blood essence of seven power-type Mutated Beasts, his own Cultivation Methods are a perfect fit, and he also exchanged resources with Contribution Points.
For the second-ranked genius in the school, its no surprise to break through to the Third Layer Heaven at this time, especially considering that Jane Aiken had broken through a few days ago.
Marcus Lee genuinely envied, These guys are freaks, one after another. Its only been a little more than a month since breaking through the Second Layer Heaven.
However, its true that coming to Koroya this time was a good choice. I originally estimated that if I had stayed in school to practice, it would take at least half a year to break through to the Third Layer Heaven.
But now, as long as the resources for cultivation can keep up, I feel that 1 have the chance to break through to the Third Layer within two months.
Zac Lyons nodded, Im about the same.
Especially after slaughtering those blood disciples or suppressing the rebels and returning, the efficiency of practicing and absorbing the energy of crystals is several times higher than usual.
I feel like my entire body and True Strength in my Dan-Tian is active, madly absorbing energy to become stronger.
Justin Welan nodded, Thats the purpose of the trial to bring us close to death, witness death, and stimulate our inherent genetic desire to pass on.
During the subsequent waiting, everyone shared their combat gains from this period, as well as stories about the cunning and treacherous blood disciples they had met.
Humm!!!
At this time, a hum came from the sky. In the distance, a huge transport plane slowly descended from the horizon, landing sharply at a low altitude, and sliding fiercely.
The large fuselage slid on the runway, rolling up a raging wind, and finally stopped slowly near everyone under the command of the Control Tower.
When the plane came to a stop, the prepared gangway was pushed close to it, and the hatch opened.
Two middle-aged individuals came out first, followed by a number of young people, their youthful faces filled with excitement, curiosity, and anticipation.
They looked exactly like Jack and his classmates when they first arrived in Koroya..
