“Ah! I’m back.” This time, Shi Hao had prepared his heart before entering the portal, so even after undergoing the spinning pressure, he didn’t lose consciousness. He just vomited several times, which made the soldiers at one side look at him with a strange gaze. But they didn’t dare to say anything.
After all, Shi Hao was an official, a person with a rank. If they indiscriminately made any disrespectful remarks, then they might be punished. Therefore, these soldiers pretended to see nothing and quickly went to notify Huan Ji, and Huan Ji also arrived here quickly.
Huan Ji cupped his hands and said: “Lord Shi, congratulations on your smooth return journey, and your promotion! It’s truly worthy of celebration.”
Upon a closer look, Huan Ji’s eyes were filled with respect. The smaller portion of this respect was because Shi Hao’s return meant that the mission was complete, and Shi Hao’s rank would rise immediately, becoming a rank higher than his. The bigger portion was because the strength that Shi Hao had displayed before was truly extraordinary. Moreover, anyone who could return from a terrifying place like Seafloor World was worthy of respect.
Unfortunately, Huan Ji didn’t know that Shi Hao even had a village in the Seafloor World now! Moreover, it was a very valuable village. Not only that village had a portal that allows players to travel to and from the mainland, but it also had a mysterious treasury, and under a special circumstance, one could go to the place of Sea Manager. If Shi Hao hadn’t personally checked and learned that Striped Stone Village was a D grade village, he would have thought that Striped Stone Village was an SS grade village. However, even though it was a D grade village, it had many valuable resources, which was enough to make people content.
At this moment, Shi Hao had already stopped vomiting and returned to normal. He then followed Huan Ji to the military camp and celebrated with all soldiers until late at night.
The next day, Shi Hao gave the video he had recorded to Huan Ji, officially declaring the successful completion of the mission. Naturally, the video he handed over was carefully edited by him. He was not stupid. Shi Hao clearly knew what should be revealed and what shouldn’t be revealed. The higher-ups of Divine and Mighty Alliance were very unlikely to notice what Shi Hao had done after watching the video. They would be very satisfied with the mission Shi Hao had completed. Hahahaha!
Sure enough, just like Shi Hao had expected, in less than half a day, Huan Ji returned with good news, very big good news.
Huan Ji said in all smiles: “Lord Shi, congratulation! The Divine and Mighty Alliance highly appreciates the completion quality of your mission. Beyond our expectations, Lord Shi, you were actually able to reach out and communicate with the local residents. Lord Shi, your acting skill is indeed superb. I greatly admire you! Hereby, in addition to two previous rewards, the Divine and Mighty Alliance will give you a chance to choose a treasure. Lord Shi, please look…”
Heh heh. At this moment, Shi Hao had officially become the rank two official of Divine and Mighty Alliance! Shi Hao smiled. Now, his rank was exactly the same as Zhang Han. As for lower-ranked Wei Wentong? His broadsword seems very useful. What should he do? Shi Hao considered for three seconds. And after the hesitation, he came back to his senses.
At this moment, Shi Hao took two booklets from Huan Ji. Among them, one book recorded all legend grade treasures in the treasury of Divine and Mighty Alliance. And the other book recorded all epic-grade treasures in the treasury of Divine and Mighty Alliance. Obviously, the Divine and Mighty Alliance was allowing Shi Hao to choose a treasure each from those two booklets. In this way, it was indeed better than randomly choosing a treasure from the treasury as agreed before!
Shi Hao carefully browsed through the two booklets until the sky was gradually turning dark, and he finally made the decision. He then said to Huan JI: “These two!”
Huan Ji looked at Shi Hao’s choice and said nothing. He just quickly sent people to inform the Divine and Mighty Alliance of Shi Hao’s choice. And the Divine and Mighty Alliance also didn’t delay either. In the next morning, the two treasures chosen by Shi Hao were already in Shi Hao’s hands.
Shi Hao opened the inventory and looked at the first treasure, a legend-grade item! Black Robber Horse.
[Name: Black Robber Horse (legend)] [Level: 1] [Agility: +15] [HP: +15] [Attached Skill: Iron-Blooded War Hoof, CD: 1 day, inflicts ignore-defense 50 damage to enemies around]Black Robber Horse was much faster than Cloud Mist Beast, moreover, Cloud Mist Beast increased his MP, which was not that useful to him. Therefore, he chose Black Robber Horse to replace Cloud Mist Beast.
But Cloud Mist Beast wouldn’t be thrown aside. It was very useful to Feng Tianhao. Feng Tianhao’s new skill, Rage, consumed a lot of MP. Moreover, with Cloud Mist Beast, Feng Tianhao’s combat power would greatly increase, which would definitely frighten those archers and strategists. He would be in front of them in a flash, and they would die under his iron spear. Therefore, Cloud Mist Beast was set aside for Feng Tianhao.
Shi Hao then looked at the second treasure, epic-grade item! Disguise Attire.
[Name: Disguise Attire (epic)] [Level: 1] [Attached Skill: Disguise, no CD, can change into one fabricated person (you can fabricate it when you are using this skill for the first time. Once fabricated, it cannot be changed), possess corresponding looks and voce]Disguise Attire, this was a weird thing. Although it was an accessory item, speaking franking without being polite, it truly had no actual boost in combat power. However, being able to change one’s own appearance and voice, wasn’t that the disguise item Shi Hao yearned? Perhaps, it was not only Shi Hao who wanted this kind of item. If it weren’t the case, then how could such an accessory item that didn’t even have any boost in combat be an epic-grade item?
In addition, along with the rise in the level of this item, Shi Hao could change into more appearances. At that time, other than his close friends, no one would be able to distinguish which appearance of Shi Hao was real. Amazing! Truly amazing.
Okay! At this moment, all matters were already taken care of. The mission was completed and he had already gotten the rewards. Now, he wanted to set out on his wife-hunting operation. Merely, the agreed 100 people were missing.
Shi Hao closed his inventory and said: “Long Huan Ji, many thanks! Merely, I wonder if Lord Huan Ji still remembers the matter of 100 soldiers? And when will you honor that promise? If it is convenient, I’m ready to take action today. I hope Lord Huan Ji can forgive me and don’t blame me for my impatience. Haha!”
Eh! Shi Hao’s words weren’t truly genuine. Huan Ji naturally didn’t dare to blame Shi Hao. Moreover, Huan Ji, in fact, had already prepared 100 soldiers outside the military camp. Upon a careful look, those 100 soldiers were the ones Shi Hao had used to fight Huan Ji before. There was no difference other than their level had increased by 1, reaching level 13. Shi Hao was very satisfied with this!
Shi Hao then returned to his room, equipped level 1 Disguise Attire and fabricated a new appearance and voice. Heh heh, the current appearance of Shi Hao looked like Blowing Wind Left A Scar. But upon a closer look, there was still a clear difference. He was at least half a head shorter in stature. If someone looked at him, they might think that he was a fan of Blowing Wind Left A Scar.
Finally, everything was ready. Shi Hao’s ten days (time limit agreed with Huan Ji) journey to find his wife officially started…
