BXBX NOVEL Chapter 234: The Mission Is Issued
Everyone knew that when the Xu family moved, the world paid attention, and this situation would be no different.
The first order of business was to publish the task notice across all the continents, as Xu Qianghua wanted the whole world to know what was happening.
Otherwise, this incident will repeat itself with the other continents, which is not something he wants to see.
So, using the extensive network set up by the Shadow members, the mission was quickly drafted and sent to the adventurer guild in the central cities of each continent.
As this will make the mission appear in every other adventurer branch across the continent.
Within hours, announcements began appearing on the mission boards of major cities in every continent.
Mission Announcement:
Mission: Hunt and capture poachers attempting to infiltrate the Southern Continent.
Objective: Kill all the poachers that plan to invade the Southern Continent and kidnap innocents.
Reward: Cultivation resources and corresponding weapons to the cultivation realm of the poacher killed.
Location: Southern Continent
Notes: This mission is open to cultivators and adventurers, but it is recommended to do this mission in teams as the poachers usually travel as a team.
The mission quickly caught the attention of adventurers worldwide. In the bustling cities of the Western, Northern, and Eastern Continents, groups of cultivators gathered around the mission boards, reading the newly posted notice.
The adventurer guilds buzzed with activity. Each one was surprised by the mission, as this was the first mission posted by the Xu family.
And it has something to do with taking the lives of humans, which is something that they had never expected.
This does not mean that they have not killed humans before; no, they have, but that was as collateral damage, and it was not the mission objective.
In the Western Continent, a group of experienced adventurers huddled around a board, talking in hushed voices.
"Poachers, huh? Never thought that the hunters would someday become the ones to be hunted," one adventurer said, rubbing his hands together.
"If we can catch them before they reach the Southern Continent, it\'ll be a piece of cake."
A more cautious adventurer shook his head. "This is the Xu family\'s first-ever mission, so we need to be careful.
You can tell from the mission location—there\'s more to this than meets the eye. We should be prepared for anything."
In the Northern Continent, a lone rogue adventurer smirked as he read the mission description. m|vlempyr your story source
"A whole continent as the mission location? This is the kind of chaos I thrive on," he muttered before disappearing into the night, already planning on what he needed to do next.
Meanwhile, the major sects and families across the continents received direct communication from their liaisons in the adventurer guilds, alerting them to the mission\'s appearance.
Some sect leaders and family heads saw it as an opportunity to strengthen their ties with the Xu family, while others viewed it as a potential danger.
But all understood one thing: if the Xu family was taking action, the world was about to change.
And while all of this was going on, far from the bustling cities, deep in the Southern Continent, in a valley that is obscured using a massive formation.
A huge military base was here without anyone knowing; this is the main base of one of the legions that the Xu family has built.
There are others, but they are situated in other parts of the continent.
Xu Cheng, the legion commander of this army, sat in his private command room, which was filled with maps and military reports.
A soft hum filled the air as his family sign token on his desk vibrated, signaling an incoming message from the Xu family\'s central command.
He reached out, touched the token, and listened carefully to the orders relayed directly from the family head.
The Southern Continent needed a military presence, but not in full force. A single branch from the legion would be dispatched to secure and patrol the region, preventing any large-scale incursions.
It was a simple mission as they were not the main fighting force—it was more of a deterrent, a show of strength to those who dared to use large-scale attacks.
Once the message ended, Xu Cheng stood up, his sharp eyes narrowing as he considered which branch to send.
He knew his legion well; they were some of the best-trained soldiers in the world, each one capable of handling situations most others would run from.
But this mission was unique—they were not to be the dominant force but rather a guardian in the background.
With a swift motion, he summoned his four branch commanders.
Each of them led a force of a million soldiers, and all were equally competent. But he would leave it to them to decide who would take this mission.
A few minutes later, the four branch commanders gathered in the command room.
Each one was a powerful cultivator in their own right, representing different specialties within the legion. They stood in a semi-circle, facing Xu Cheng, waiting for his command.
"Commander Wu, Commander Zhi, Commander Huang, and Commander Lin," Xu Cheng began, his voice strong and commanding, "We\'ve been tasked with sending a branch to the Southern Continent.
The mission is to patrol and secure the area, preventing any large-scale poaching or incursions.
This is a long-term assignment where we will not be the main force, but our presence will be vital. Who among you wishes to take this mission?"
The branch commanders exchanged glances. Commander Zhi, a towering woman with a fierce reputation for her strike first ask later, was the first to speak.
"Commander, leave this mission to my branch as we are the oldest," Commander Zhi said, her tone thoughtful.
"The soldiers under my command can handle this situation without any problems, as we have trained for these kinds of missions before."
Commander Wu, known for his tactical flexibility, shook his head. "No, the soldiers under you are just like you, who like to be the front-line force compared to the backup force, which is what the mission is about."
