“Today, seventy-seven brothers of the Wu'an Army sacrificed their lives.”

Edward Carter’s sudden words brought the atmosphere to a standstill.

At this moment, Samuel Thompson didn’t know what to say either. It was Edward Carter who broke the silence and said, “I need to talk to you.”

“If you’re asking me about news of the Blood God Cult, I’m sorry, but I don’t have any more information.”

“I need your cooperation in wiping out the Blood God Cult!”

“Sorry, I’m just a young man who hasn’t even taken the unified assessment. Eliminating the Blood God Cult is the Wu'an Army’s job, I can’t help.”

Without even thinking, Samuel Thompson refused directly.

The Blood God Cult are all lunatics—if they can’t win, they just self-destruct. Who would dare mess with them!

He’s just a lowly Cracked Stone Realm; what help could he possibly be?

“If there’s nothing else, I’m going to rest now.”

Samuel Thompson was about to end the call.

“Wait!”

Edward Carter stared at Samuel Thompson, his voice low: “Seventy-seven brothers can’t die in vain. Today I saw their families…” He spoke slowly, enunciating every word.

“Sorry.”

“Samuel Thompson!”

Seeing Samuel Thompson about to hang up again, the previously low voice cracked.

“You can name your terms—demon beasts, merit points, vitality potions, minyuan, even a Demon Hunter Medal, I can apply for you.

With the Demon Hunter Medal and your true strength, you’ll have a great chance to enter top places like Longcheng or Hengdao Academy to cultivate. If there’s anything else you want, just say it.”

“Sorry, I really don’t know how I can help…” “Ding, 300,000 yuan has been deposited into your account.”

Chapter 2: Mutual Consent (Please add to your collection)

A dialog box suddenly popped up on the light screen, cutting off Samuel Thompson’s words.

Three hundred thousand!

Did nothing, just got money thrown at him.

So direct!

He pursed his lips. This…

In a flash, his mind spun quickly. At market price, 300,000 is enough to buy 300 demon rats like today’s.

At the very least, he could extract dozens of drops of demon beast essence blood.

Cracked Stone, Mountain Opening—half a year—no, two or three months, and he could reach Mountain Opening Realm.

August 1st, the unified cabinet assessment—if he has Mountain Opening Realm strength…

He remembered the last student at the peak of Cracked Stone Realm who joined Jiangbei Academy and got a 150,000 yuan scholarship.

For Mountain Opening Realm, asking for 300,000 isn’t too much, right?

Three hundred thousand!

Three hundred thousand!

Six hundred thousand!

So tempting.

……

“All three hundred thousand are yours.”

Seeing Samuel Thompson remain silent, Edward Carter continued, “Take a look at this first.”

Samuel Thompson then received a video file.

“What’s this?”

“Tomorrow’s Jiangbei City news.”

“Are you serious?”

Samuel Thompson didn’t open it, but instead looked at Edward Carter and said, “I’m just a Cracked Stone Realm. Even the weakest in the Wu'an Army are Cracked Stone Realm martial artists. What can I do?”

“Just watch!”

Samuel Thompson opened the video, and a projection frame appeared to the side.

“Jiangbei News Flash: Yesterday, the Wu'an Army uncovered a Blood God Cult gathering place and wiped out nearly a hundred people.”

On the light screen, two figures appeared. The woman wore a black business suit, the man was completely pixelated, but you could vaguely tell he was a person.

The woman, he recognized—Jiangbei’s little starlet Little Ray York, very pretty.

“Worth mentioning, the one who discovered the Blood God Cult’s plot this time and delivered the crucial message that allowed the Wu'an Army to destroy the totem board was Wu'an Army undercover agent, student Samuel Thompson.”

“Huh~” Samuel Thompson was stunned.

Him?

Undercover agent?

Delivered a message?

Don’t make stuff up.

He didn’t!

“Reportedly, the Wu'an Army has already nominated Samuel Thompson and is preparing to apply for a First-Class Medal for him.

Viewers must be wondering, can taking down a gathering really earn a First-Class Medal?

Who is this?

Who the hell is this!

!!

Unbelievable!

I’m speechless.

The pixelated figure spoke.

Samuel Thompson was left dumbfounded.

At this moment, he felt that the pixelation—no, his whole body—was radiating a sacred, solemn light.

“My parents are both retired Divine Archer Army warriors. Since I was young, my dream has been to set foot on the Martial Great Wall, slay the demon race, protect thousands of families’ lights. Joining the Wu'an Army is the first step in fulfilling my dream.

Though I am young, I am also a member of the Wu'an Army. ‘A bunch of vermin hiding in the shadows, all they’re good at is deceiving people. As for the leader, you’d better wash your neck and wait—I’ll take your head. The Wu'an Army has already…’” “Ah…

Didn’t expect Samuel Thompson to have such lofty ideals, truly admirable.”

Little York looked at the pixelated figure and asked again, “Before you set out, do you have anything else you’d like to say, Samuel Thompson?”

“Jiangbei is not a lawless place. Wait for me—I’ll take you down.”

From within the pixelation, a hand stretched out.

It raised a middle finger.

The image froze on the middle finger, and the atmosphere fell silent again.

“It’s a bit lacking, but with time so tight, this was the best we could do.”
