Chapter 157: Dark Society

Ten-Thousand Wood Manor.

When he came here again, Su Hao discovered that… the whole forest looked the same.

Not much.

Not less either.

He found it very unreasonable.

“With the speed at which Senior Wu’s Goat Horn Immortal plants trees, it shouldn’t take long for the mountains and plains to turn green, but there are still so many trees here… Could it be that Senior Wu is also a part-time wood merchant?”

The wood produced by a monarch-level sprite should be… very high-class, very valuable, right?

He looked at Reverie Butterfly.

Reverie Butterfly was also looking at him.

Each of them seemed to have the same thought.

But then he remembered that the little rascal wasn’t good at expediting plant growth.

“Gurgle!”

…

When Su Hao saw Heavenly King Wu again, he seemed to be under an illusion.

His hair wasn’t that thick anymore.

“Senior.”

“Little Junior is here. Have a seat.”

Heavenly King Wu boiled water and made tea. There was a faint fatigue in his eyes.

“What’s the problem today?”

“Err, no, my three sprites are all at a bottleneck now. I’m going to take on some missions and bring them to train.”

Heavenly King Wu secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as he wasn’t asking a question.

Ever since that day, he had recommended a few unique skills and profound meanings to Su Hao.

He had originally thought that these difficult questions would be enough to keep Su Hao busy for the whole semester. Who would have thought…

“Senior, I don’t think one would have to leave an imprint with illusion for the ‘Spiritual Explosion’ skill. Movement, sound, and even spiritual force characteristics are all able to do so as well. I’ve modified it for your reference…”

“Senior, I don’t think the two profound meanings, Burning Flame and Flaming Flame, are suitable for Flaming Cloud Crow. According to my analysis… (omitted 1,000 words)… It’s best to have a profound meaning that can make its flames flow like water.”

“Senior, my Water Unicorn has already learned the profound meaning of Stacking Waves. Is there anything else that it can learn…”

“Senior, here’s what I think about Flaming Feather Form…”

“Senior…”

“Senior…”

“Senior…”

…

The series of questions made Heavenly King Wu a little breathless.

After so many years, he took out a book to revise again.

Several strands of his thick black hair fell off because of this.

Difficult! Difficult! Difficult!

How exactly did Little Su’s brain grow?

Heavenly King Wu sighed.

Upon hearing that his junior wasn’t here to ask a question, Heavenly King Wu’s back seemed to straighten a little.

“You want to do the mission of arresting wanted criminals, right?

“With your current strength, completing a Class B mission is enough, but most of the time, you aren’t fighting a wanted criminal, but assisting the local associations in chasing and intercepting them. Don’t act on your own, you have to know how to protect yourself.”

He paused and continued,

“In fact, there are also two types of arrest missions. The first is to pursue ordinary wanted criminals. These people usually don’t have any trump cards, so the level of danger is relatively low.”

“There’s another type. They are the pursuit of terrorists or sprite hunters.

“Then you have to be extremely careful. Even if the target is only an official Sprite Trainer, there’s a chance that an even stronger person will emerge from behind him… You’ve been attacked by terrorist organizations before, right?”

Su Hao nodded.

He thought about it and tried to ask again.

“Senior, how strong are terrorist organizations… exactly?”

“The terrorist organizations…” He sighed slightly. “The terrorist organizations are like a malignant tumor rooted on our planet. Although they can’t be compared to the Union, they caused quite a lot of trouble by hiding in the dark. ”

“These organizations can generally be divided into three.”

“Three?”

“The first is the Ten Thousand Grace Cult. This organization is very strict and controls the lower levels through brainwashing. The upper levels are also extremely mysterious…”

He shook his head.

“The second is God’s Hand. There are relatively fewer members in this organization. The top ten powerhouses are known as ‘Ten Fingers’. They are mainly active in the New World and seem to aim to capture some powerful sprites. There are relatively fewer conflicts between them and the Union.”

“But God’s Hand once attacked Laboratory No. 2 of the Golden Eagle Federation. The key was that it even succeeded and stole some information.”

“The last terrorist organization is called the Dark Society.

“In fact, it’s considered the collective body of countless small organizations. It has taken in many repeat-offence criminals. Its internal affairs are chaotic, and there are many members. There are also many fanatical lunatics. They are the main targets of the Union’s siege.

“On the mission platform of our school, there will occasionally be missions like assisting in destroying the Dark Society’s stronghold… Those are considered large-scale missions.”

“There are also hunters, but those Sprite Hunters are even more clever than terrorists. It’s very difficult to catch their traces.”

Heavenly King Wu gave his suggestion.

He would first take on two to three Class C missions to practice — the platform also needed to be upgraded to accept Class B missions anyway.

And take on more difficult missions.

“Remember, don’t hesitate when facing these wanted criminals. If you can’t capture them alive, kill them… decisively.”

…

Whale Island University, Mission Building.

Su Hao had already selected the mission on the Sprite Commandeering wristband, but he still needed to go to the mission building to receive it and swipe his student card.

Early in the morning, he rode the Water Unicorn Beast over.

He saw the grand mission building from afar.

And students coming and going.

Su Hao walked into the hall and looked up.

On the few walls of the mission hall, there were display screens, displaying some missions.

After observing for a while, he walked to one of the application windows and handed his student card over.

“Hello, I want to accept mission number 0125.”

The receptionist picked up his student card and tapped it.

Information appeared on the screen facing Su Hao.

[Student: Su Hao, first-year]

[Combat Ability Rating: Elite]

[Mission Record: None]

After some operation, he quickly received the mission.

Capture a criminal named Wang Erkun.

“Fengchuan Village?”

…

Including the time wasted on the road, Su Hao spent a total of four days on the first mission.

The criminal in the second mission was more cunning. He searched a forest for three days before he found traces of the culprit and caught him.

All in all, it had taken a week. After returning to school, he still had to fill in an application for leave of absence for a compulsory class.

The third mission…

“Die!”

The wanted criminal in front of him had a ferocious look on his face. His sprite had already fallen, but he suddenly took out a grenade from his pocket and pulled the trigger.

“Boom!”

Su Hao was shocked by the explosion.

But the Water Unicorn Beast, which was sitting down, had already retreated far away with a kick of its hooves.

A water screen appeared in front of itself, blocking the aftershock.

The wanted criminal whose protection ability had already been exhausted fell to the ground unwillingly, his face blurred from the explosion of the grenade.

…

After completing the three tasks, Su Hao was promoted to a two-star student.

He could receive Class B missions.

“I’ve seen blood…”

After all, in the final mission, the wanted criminal’s death was tragic.

He was about to accept a Class B mission when suddenly, a striking Class B++ mission appeared in the mission hall.

[Large-scale mission: Dark Society Stronghold]

[Mission Introduction: Traces of Dark Society criminals have been discovered in the suburbs of Linping City. Sprite Trainers above elite level are needed for assistance now]

[Mission Strength: Multiple which are above elite-level]

[Requirement: Elite-level student (0 / 20) (★★ certification)]

[Reward: 100-500 credits, one Class B resource exchange certificate]

[Remarks: Instructor leading the team, mission remaining time: 00: 59: 48]

Su Hao was stunned.

There was a piercing red light in the whole mission hall.

“An emergency mission?”

He recalled that Linping City seemed to be an ordinary city relatively close to Whale Island.

Su Hao was considering whether to accept the mission.

Without mentioning the credits, that Class B exchange certificate could be exchanged for some limited edition rare resources.

He was greedy for it.

But this mission is risky.

Should he take it?

The glaring red light in the hall seemed to indicate that the situation was urgent.

After standing for a while, he saw his seniors rushing over after hearing the news.

The number of people accepting missions kept increasing from time to time.

(1/20)!

(3/20)!

(7/20)!

In just ten minutes, the number of people who had received the mission had already reached half.

A boy in white ran quickly into the hall. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks and turned to look.

Ice Six Tails on his shoulder also turned its head.

They both looked at Su Hao.
