138: Chapter 138 The Siege and Kill of Zhang Jian!

In a pitch-black hall.

Ming Kong leaned back with his legs crossed, resting comfortably in his chair.

He looked at Li Zhihai and Wang Hongming, who were kneeling on the ground, weeping bitterly after being tortured.

He did not expect that a spur-of-the-moment investigation would actually catch two big fish.

The Dean of the Ta City Trainee Professionals Academy, and a high-level executive of the Tacheng Professionals Association.

Although according to these two, their escape meant they had essentially lost these identities.

But their understanding of the Professionals within Ta City was solid.

Especially...

Hearing their description of a recently rising Professional named Zhang Jian made Ming Kong very interested.

He got up, walked in front of them, squatted down, and asked gently.

"According to your speculation, is it possible for this Zhang Jian to completely clear the Hell-level Dungeon and obtain an ultimate-grade evaluation?"

"There is a chance!"

"Impossible!"

The two spoke in unison, but their opinions were not quite unified.

Ming Kong frowned.

The two felt an irresistible and terrifying Aura, making them unable to breathe.

It was not until Ming Kong stood up and withdrew his Aura that the two gasped for air, feeling like they had survived a disaster.

Before Ming Kong could continue to question them, Wang Hongming hurriedly explained first.

"The Professional system has been out for nearly a hundred years, and it has been over fifty years since the first Third-Rank powerhouse appeared."

"Five years ago, a powerhouse activated the Hell-level Dungeon."

"Three years ago, someone cleared it and achieved a perfect-grade evaluation."

"But to this day, no team has been able to achieve an ultimate-grade evaluation."

"With so many powerhouses cooperating, countless resources, and the unremitting efforts of Saints who have reached the Rank limit, it is still out of reach."

"How could Zhang Jian, a mere Swordman Professional, possibly be the first to achieve this feat?"

Wang Hongming spoke eloquently, as if counting family treasures.

He just wanted the other party to believe these words so he would be let go.

Li Zhihai beside him looked disdainful.

"Look at your narrow knowledge."

"Just because something hasn't been done for over a hundred years, does it mean a newcomer can't do it?"

"When I first knew about Zhang Jian, he didn't even dare to try the difficulty level of the Trial Dungeon."

"In just a few days, he used his Rank 9 strength to lead a few Rank 10+ brats to clear a 10-person Rank 25 Dungeon."

"And in just three times, he broke the record twice and achieved a perfect-grade Hell-level difficulty."

"Is this speed of progress something you can measure with these old stories?"

"Maybe he will get an ultimate-grade evaluation in a few days!"

Wang Hongming was already holding a fire in his heart because he was forced to flee.

Being accidentally caught by this group of mysterious people made him even more terrified.

Now, seeing Li Zhihai actually praising Zhang Jian made him even angrier.

He really wanted to see if Li Zhihai's brain was muddled.

"Zhang Jian is the culprit who caused us to end up like this, and you are still praising him?"

But after he met Li Zhihai's gaze, he suddenly understood.

The other party's interrogation of them just now seemed to indicate that they didn't know much about the situation in Ta City, China, or even the entire Water Blue Planet.

In their words, they seemed wary of someone completely clearing the Hell-level Dungeon and breaking the Professional Rank limit.

Whether it was hostile forces of Professionals or extraterrestrial visitors outside the Water Blue Planet.

In any case, they would definitely not sit idly by and watch someone like Zhang Jian grow smoothly.

The more Wang Hongming thought, the more he understood, and finally realized.

Li Zhihai is trying to kill him with praise!

He immediately changed his expression and changed his words.

"But this kid is indeed a bit weird."

"He was in the academy for a few years, and although his performance was okay, there was nothing special."

"After Awakening the most trashy profession, I thought he was finished and didn't pay much attention."

"As a result, the strength he gradually displayed is stronger than top-tier professions, and he even cleared the Dungeon solo, breaking the original record."

"Nowadays, he repeatedly does things that others cannot imagine, it's completely incomprehensible!"

"At this rate of development, he really is the hope for our Professionals to break through the limit!"

The two's statements suddenly became unified. Ming Kong was not a fool and immediately thought of the key point.

"Does this Zhang Jian have a grudge against you two?"

Li Zhihai and Wang Hongming stopped talking immediately.

Ming Kong chuckled.

"I can take revenge for you, and I can even help you break through your own talent limits and improve your strength."

His words made both of them tempted.

But Li Zhihai was a bit skeptical.

"We are all top-tier Professionals. Things that can have an effect on talent are at least epic-grade items."

"To completely break through the limit, it might require mythical level items. There aren't many things of this level in all of China."

"If you are really that powerful, why would you be holed up in this mountain corner and not dare to go out?"

Wang Hongming also looked at him with suspicious eyes.

"Bold, how dare you question the Young Lord!"

The old man on the side was furious and was about to take action to end the two.

But he was stopped by Ming Kong's wave.

"No matter."

"Old Luo, didn't you convert some of our clan's treasures into things that can be used on this planet over the past few years? Take them out and let him see."

Being called that, the old man's eyes were extremely excited.

He hurriedly took out a scroll from his arms and placed it in front of them according to Ming Kong's instructions.

Li Zhihai and the other looked curiously.

[Demonic · Origin Soul Awakening Scroll]

Quality: mythical level

After use, it can activate three Origin talents for the current arbitrary profession. The talent level is randomly from excellence to epic-grade. It can also be merged into one, and the level will definitely be mythical level.

(This item is exclusive. It cannot be used with similar items after use. The effect of previously used items lower than this quality will be overwritten)

"mythical level item!"

Li Zhihai exclaimed.

"Three random talents or one mythical level talent?"

Wang Hongming also said with surprise in his eyes.

Both of them had greedy eyes.

They both reached out, wanting to grab the scroll.

Ming Kong reached out, and the scroll flew directly back into his hand.

"Snatching it directly is not right, oh."

Ming Kong's tone carried deep meaning.

Li Zhihai and Wang Hongming bowed deeply, "Young Lord, please forgive us."

Ming Kong smiled satisfactorily and reached out to help them up.

"Just for this attitude, I will give you a chance."

The two became serious all of a sudden.

Ming Kong said nonchalantly.

"You go and kill this Zhang Jian and the people in their team, and this scroll will be yours."

Seeing the two struggling, he added another sentence.

"The one who contributes more can take this one directly, and the other person will have an epic-grade one as a guarantee."

"If you perform well, it's not impossible for each person to get a mythical level one."

The two were immediately tempted.

Wang Hongming thought of a problem.

"These four are all students of Galaxy Academy, and the badges they wear cannot be easily killed. If they suffer fatal damage, they will be teleported away. Do you have any way?"

Ming Kong smiled contemptuously and waved his hand casually.

The old man surnamed Luo immediately took out an object.

This is a small cylinder emitting gray light.

[Law-Breaking Forbidden Light] (epic-grade)

After use, it can make the target's invincible-type effects, fatal damage protection effects, locked-blood effects, etc., which are not higher than epic-grade, disappear temporarily. Duration: 30 seconds.

Although this is a one-time item, the effect is unusually sharp.

It perfectly solved the problem Wang Hongming was worried about.

But when he saw the attributes, he hesitated, then shook his head.

"It is said that Zhang Jian's badge is epic-grade. I am afraid this thing will be ineffective against him."

Ming Kong raised his eyebrows.

"It seems Galaxy Academy values him very much."

Although he said so, his tone was still very relaxed.

The old man surnamed Luo, under his signal, took out another [Law-Breaking Forbidden Light].

However.

This one is mythical level!

Wang Hongming's heart jumped. The other party took out mythical level items one after another, which was shocking.

The strength is evident.

But thinking that such a mysterious and powerful person can help him deal with Zhang Jian and even improve his strength.

His heart was filled with excitement again.

He took the mythical level cylinder item and another deep red explosive item.

His hands were already trembling slightly.

"Zhang Jian, your death date is coming soon!"

Wang Hongming and Li Zhihai left happily.

Just after they walked out, two pitch-black rays of light flashed past and drilled into their bodies.

Back in the wild, breathing the air of nature, the two relaxed all of a sudden.

Just about to rest for a while.

"Are you going to disobey the Young Lord's orders?"

The sudden voice made the two shiver together.

Looking around in horror, they didn't find anyone.

Only then did they know it was the voice coming from their bodies.

Such magical means made them awe-struck, and they hurriedly got up and walked towards Ta City.

Being possessed by something they didn't know, they were both a little uncomfortable.

Thinking of finding Zhang Jian and the others quickly to complete the task, they moved very fast along the way.

Seeing that they were about to walk to the position of the Ta City wall.

But suddenly saw a few figures standing together chatting not far away.

Li Zhihai looked closely.

He knew all these people.

A Zhang Jian, a Wang Dong.

And two young people, who were his subordinates when he was at the Professionals Association.

Li Zhihai's eyes lit up, and Wang Hongming was also tempted.

The two looked at each other and decided to take action directly.

Since they had made the decision, they did not hesitate.

As soon as their figures started, they entered the combat state.

Li Zhihai pressed the cylinder in his hand towards Zhang Jian.

A gray light shot out instantly, shrouding Zhang Jian.

Wang Hongming shouted and launched a skill directly at the four.

[Explosive Sound Wave]!

As a Spirit Reader, he didn't need the cooperation of weapons to release skills directly.

And with his average five-dimensional attributes, his casting speed and attack range were also outstanding among Professionals of the same Rank.

Just a thought.

The offensive composed of several green rays of light instantly enveloped Zhang Jian and the others!

...

After Zhang Jian received the news from Wang Dong, he went out without delay.

On the way, he was thinking that although he had only parted with the other party for a few days, he had experienced a lot of things.

I am afraid that Brother Dong would also be shocked after knowing his current achievements.

And not long after leaving the city, he met the other party.

Sure enough.

Wang Dong heard that he had already cleared [Protect the Abandoned Factory] as a daily Dungeon, and was admitted to Galaxy Academy with the first place in China.

He was stunned for a long time on the spot.

And knowing that he perfectly cleared the [Wild Grassland] Dungeon, he called him a pervert.

He knew that Dungeon very well.

When he was in the second half of his sophomore year at Long Province Weaponry Academy, he had tried it three times with a group of friends, all with Rank 25 strength.

Once easily cleared the difficulty level, once barely cleared the nightmare level.

When he wanted to make a good result in one go the third time.

Instead, because of anxiety, there was a mistake in cooperation, and a support Professional was accidentally seriously injured and almost died. In the end, the evaluation was not as good as the second time.

He swiped it three times in a week. He originally wanted to make a profit by relying on the Dungeon.

As a result, counting the money for hiring Third-Rank Professionals to treat teammates, not only did he not earn, but he also lost a lot of money.

In the end, everyone gave up that Dungeon directly.

So hearing that Zhang Jian could easily clear it with his own unpromising brother and two classmates, just four people, Wang Dong's shock was indescribable.

While sighing, the Zhang Jian opposite him suddenly changed his face, "Be careful!"

Wang Dong turned his head and saw the sound wave attack composed of green light, which had already appeared in front of him.

He couldn't care less, and in a hurry, he pushed Zhang Jian back, barely escaping the range of the sound wave attack.

And he himself was hit solidly.

The power of a Rank 39 Spirit Reader's sneak attack was not weak.

As a Swordman Professional, Wang Dong's own defense and Qi and blood were not high.

This blow made him spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground seriously injured.

Zhang Jian stabilized his footing and saw Wang Hongming, who had suddenly attacked him, and Li Zhihai beside him.

This blow just now also made him enter the combat state immediately.

Several Sword Qi floated up instantly and surrounded him.

[Sword Qi Field], complete!

And opposite him, Wang Hongming's expression was a little stunned.

He didn't expect that his carefully executed blow was fully taken by Wang Dong, but Zhang Jian luckily dodged it.

But it was just a slight stun, his hand movements were not slow.

Staring again.

An invisible mental fluctuation spread forward.

Zhang Jian and the other two young people with panicked expressions stiffened instantly.

It was a control-type skill!

Li Zhihai stepped forward and grinned.

"Didn't expect it, Zhang Jian, we meet again!"

He wanted to see Zhang Jian's panicked and scared expression, but only saw Zhang Jian's calm eyes.

Just about to mock again, suddenly startedle.

His body felt bursts of stinging pain.

The mysterious will in his body was exerting its power!

He didn't dare to nag anymore, but chanted in his mouth.

A blood-red spear appeared in the air and shot at Zhang Jian.

Bang!

The spear hit the Sword Qi and shattered violently.

Zhang Jian's body swayed, but his face did not change at all.

Li Zhihai didn't believe in evil, concentrated again, and released another single-target attack skill.

Poof!

This time his offensive was even more fierce, but Zhang Jian still firmly blocked it by relying on the effect of [Sword Qi Field].

It's just that the light of the first shield formed by Sword Qi had dimmed a lot, and the second shield was also crumbling.

Li Zhihai's face was a bit ugly.

As a Rank 39 top-tier Professional, he attacked twice in a row, but couldn't take down a Rank 9 Unified Examination freshman?

He gritted his teeth and took out the deep red bomb he got from Ming Kong.

Wang Hongming was taken aback and hurriedly retreated.

Li Zhihai's mind was moved, and he activated it, threw it towards the three who were still unable to move, and then fled wildly backwards.

Bang!

The ground shook, and the air was full of violent energy.

Countless dust rushed into the sky, directly forming a small mushroom cloud.

Until the explosion ended, Li Zhihai and the other two fixed their eyes and looked.
