Furthermore, at certain moments, their words and actions represent the will of "Hong," and their authority is self-evident.
"Hey!"
With a slight sound, the fighter jet's hatch slowly opened, revealing a stepped passageway.
"Welcome, Your Excellency Special Envoy!"
Zhou Zhengyong was the first to react and quickly led the three supervisors to speak in unison.
A woman dressed in a purplish-red combat suit walked gracefully out of the hatch. She wore an exquisite gold mask, revealing only her eyes.
Her exposed eyes alone were like the most brilliant stars in the night sky, deep and bright. One glance was enough to tell that she was an absolute beauty.
The moment they saw who it was, the four bigwigs of Yangzhou immediately recognized that it was Yao Rao, one of Hong's three personal guards.
Yao Rao stood on the staircase, glanced indifferently at the four people below, and nodded slightly.
Then, looking at Zhou Zhengyong, she said in a cold voice, "The Master has taken notice of Lin Hao's situation. I am here on the Master's orders to review and confirm the relevant information. If there are no errors, Lin Hao will be given a spot in the elite training camp."
……
Jiangnan Base City, Extreme Clubhouse, large conference room.
"Lin Hao's talent for cultivation is astonishing. He succeeded in cultivating gene energy on his first attempt, and his punching power increased by 1800kg. It's just that there was a small accident during the practical assessment..."
As Zhou Zhengyong spoke, he recalled the practical assessment records he had reviewed at the time, realizing that such a brilliant talent had almost died before even achieving his goal.
"After becoming a martial artist, he refused the small team training arranged by the martial arts school and instead chose to go to the wilderness area alone a month later."
"As a result, in just over two months, by selling monster materials obtained in the wilderness, his martial arts certification had already reached the junior general level."
"After this detailed investigation, we have confirmed the authenticity of his combat strength. This kid's strength has probably reached the level of a mid-level warrior, and may even be comparable to a high-level warrior!"
As Chairman Zhou Zhengyong spoke, he picked up the relevant supporting documents that had been prepared in advance and handed them to Yao Rao, who was sitting in the main seat.
A brief silence fell over the meeting room. Zhuge Tao and Chairman Zhou Zhengyong exchanged a glance before turning their gaze to the special envoy, Yao Rao, who had been silent all along, quietly flipping through the documents.
"Where is he? I need to see him!"
After a long while, Yao Rao finally put down the documents in her hand and slowly spoke.
Just then, an emergency information broadcast from the Jiangnan Military Region rang out in the conference room.
"A level-three rat swarm has occurred near County 0201 and is about to attack the military supply base. More than 20,000 people are still inside the base and have not been evacuated. War God Lu Gang has already gone to stop the swarm, and the military aircraft will arrive in fifteen minutes..."
Zhuge Tao hurriedly said, "Your Excellency, at this time, Lin Hao is probably either in County 0201 or near the supply base!"
Chapter 8 Missed opportunity
At this moment, Lin Hao and Lu Gang were still struggling to hold on. Despite their relentless killing, the rat horde showed no signs of abating, surging towards them wave after wave, threatening to completely engulf them...
'What a drag... Why haven't the base city's fighter jets arrived yet!'
Lin Hao felt a little anxious. He was fine on his own, since the Rat King wasn't with him, and he could hold on for another half hour.
However, Lu Gang's movements in the distance were no longer as swift as they had been at the beginning.
Even though he is a war god, his recovery ability is completely shrouded by the 'Original Battle Body' under high-intensity combat!
'Is it really that hard to repay a life-saving debt?'
Was dying in the rat swarm his destiny? And to die right in front of him...?
……
"Shoot-"
Amidst the shrill whistling sound of the hatch tearing through the air, a fleeting figure leaped out from under the blood-red setting sun.
Her tight-fitting battle suit accentuated her peach-like curves, and her long, ink-black hair exploded into a thousand streaks of flowing clouds in the fierce wind.
The gilded mask covered most of her face, but her fox-like eyes were still visible, with a cinnabar mole at the corner of each eye. Every frown and glance seemed to scratch at the heart.
The snake-scale whip exploded with a sonic boom, and a three-foot-long arc of dark blue electricity shot out from the tip of the whip.
"You beast, how dare you act so wildly?"
His cool voice carried a hint of nonchalance, yet contained a chilling edge.
The rat king, which was three stories high, had its entire body covered in steel needle-like gray hairs that stood on end.
The beast pawed at the ground, sending up pebbles, and hundreds of gray hairs popped out of its back with a crackling sound. Foul-smelling saliva dripped from its fangs, corroding the ground and creating wisps of blue smoke.
Its massive body trembled slightly, a hint of stubbornness flashing in its eyes, as it let out a sharp roar at the enchanting creature in the sky.
"Snapped!"
The whip flashed like lightning!
The moment the beast swung its claws to block, the alluring woman flicked her wrist, and the snake-scale whip twisted into a tricky arc in mid-air.
With a muffled "rip" sound, flesh tore apart, and the Rat King's front paws were instantly ripped open, revealing the bare white bones.
Amidst the rain of blood, the rat swarm let out shrill cries like the wails of infants, and a black tide of rats surged with turbid waves ten feet high.
This lash thoroughly enraged it.
It opened its blood-red maw, revealing its incredibly sharp fangs, and pounced on Yao Rao, causing the surrounding swarm of rats to surge forward.
In an instant, the rat swarm surged towards the enchanting figure in the sky like a black tsunami.
Just then, the gray hairs standing on end on the Rat King's back suddenly burst out!
Hundreds of gray hairs transformed into a rain of arrows, but they mysteriously froze in mid-air when they touched the area within three meters of the enchanting figure—the snake-scale whip conjured nine afterimages, and wherever the whip shadows passed, all the gray hairs turned to ashes.
"Is that all the tricks you have?"
A seductive index finger brushed across the whip, and dark purple patterns lit up one after another.
Then the entire whip suddenly stretched to a hundred meters, its tip transforming into a ferocious snake head, with destructive energy vortexes spewing from its fangs.
"boom!"
With a seductive sneer, she spun and soared into the air, where purple lightning flashed and the Rat King's skull exploded in a burst of blood. His mountain-sized body flew backward for thirty feet, carving a deep trench into the reinforced concrete ground.
The foul wind, carrying fragments of entrails, scatters them, and the swarm of rats vanishes in an instant, like snow being poured over boiling water.
"Thank you so much for saving my life, brother! I'll have a good drink with you later! By the way, do you still know my name?"
Lu Gang quickly cleared away the rats and beasts around him that hadn't had time to escape, and then came over to meet up with Lin Hao.
"Lin Hao, War God Lu Gang is joking. If you hadn't stepped forward, I wouldn't have had the courage to face the rat horde."
Lin Hao explained with a smile.
As the two were chatting, Yao Rao walked over.
Looking at Yao Rao who had arrived, Lu Gang's eyes were filled with gratitude and lingering fear. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your help, Councilor. If you hadn't arrived in time, we would probably be dead here today."
Yao Rao nodded slightly to Lu Gang, then walked towards Lin Hao.
"Thank you for your help, Member of Parliament."
Lin Hao bowed slightly.
"Lin Hao, you're very good!"
Yao Rao nodded, her gaze falling on Lin Hao, especially lingering on his youthful face for a long time. "The Jiangnan branch has submitted your application to participate in the elite training camp, and headquarters has approved it."
"You have three days to prepare. Go to the global headquarters in three days."
"Let's go, I'll take you back to the base city now."
After Yao Rao finished speaking, she gently waved her arm, and a beam of light shot down from the fighter jet hovering in mid-air, enveloping Lin Hao and Yao Rao. With a gentle pulling force, the two were guided into the fighter jet by the beam of light.
Once inside the fighter jet, Yao Rao seemed to be rapidly processing something through the jet's built-in communication system, her fingertips leaving afterimages on the virtual screen, ignoring Lin Hao beside her.
Lin Hao's mind was now focused on only one thing—
'Useless simulator, why don't you take the initiative?'
The first activation was too coincidental. Unexpectedly, Dr. Wen, out of curiosity, insisted on giving him a full-body check-up, which allowed him to successfully exploit a bug.
Otherwise, he might not know when he can activate the emulator.
The simulator is completely silent. The most tempting opportunity on Earth is right in front of him, but he can't even get a bite.
How could a mere warrior like him possibly contend with a planetary-level powerhouse? He'd never even tried that before.
Although I know this person exists because I've read novels and watched anime, I don't even know their likes and interests. I can't just try to flirt with them.
Before Lin Hao could come up with any clever maneuvers, the fighter jet had already landed steadily in the plaza of the Extreme Club.
It's a rare opportunity to be alone in a room with such alluring single men and women; I've missed it...
It's not like I haven't flirted with rich women in my past life; it's just that this one is prettier and more capable in combat...
Why be a coward...
'Maybe I'm just too bad, that's why I was controlled for five minutes by that graceful and overwhelming display of power against the horde of rats.'
Lin Hao comforted himself in this way.
Yao Rao quickly parted ways with him. After receiving earnest instruction from the martial arts masters, Lin Hao went home.
Upon learning that Lin Hao was about to leave Jiangnan Base City to pursue further studies at the elite training camp, Dr. Wen became even more persistent.
I haven't left the house for the past three days except to attend an awards ceremony.
December 2, 2056, Jiangnan Base City Airport.
Supervisor Zhuge Tao, instructor Jiang Nian, and others arrived early to see Lin Hao off on his upcoming journey.
Zhuge Tao looked at Lin Hao with admiration and emotion in his eyes, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I didn't expect that in just a few months, you, who could faint during the practical assessment, have transformed so much and even dared to face the rat horde. Very good!"
After praising them, he changed the subject, "I won't say much more, but there's one thing I have to remind you. The Elite Training Camp is recognized globally as the number one training camp! Those who can be admitted are all geniuses among geniuses, each one with extraordinary talent and outstanding strength."
"The teachers there are all at least at the level of War God, and there are even 'Inspectors' who have great responsibilities and power, and even 'Patrol Officers' who are stronger than War Gods! Even the world's strongest person, 'Hong,' sometimes takes time to go to the training camp to give the students some pointers."
"That place gathers the world's most gifted students, is equipped with the world's best teachers, and has the most advanced training equipment. All kinds of rare cultivation resources are given priority there. It's no exaggeration to say that as long as you can persevere in that training camp, you will at least become a war god-level expert in the future!"
"Therefore, in such an environment, you must not be complacent or slack off. You must fully demonstrate your abilities. Only in this way can you earn the true respect of others. You must always keep this in mind!"
Lin Hao listened to this and nodded vigorously, saying, "Manager Zhuge, don't worry, I'm best at 'showcasing my abilities,' I guarantee I'll leave a deep impression on them!"
