Martial Research Master

Chapter 70



70 RETURN

Tamar-

Lin Bao was sitting in his room when Li Hao entered and reported to him. “What’s the matter for you to b in such a hurry?”. Lin Hao had a serious expression on his face. “The report from our spies came back. The Black-buck squad had returned and it is going to be bad for us.”. Lin Bao didn’t interrupt, indicating him to continue.” Apparently, they managed to complete all the missions that they undertook, perfectly. Also, according to the report, the very least all of them had already stepped into the Qi master realm. The ambush region, where we tried to disrupt and sell them out, were taken out by extreme ease, and multiple prisoners were captured. We fear that some of our people are among them, and those that know we were the one who gave up the information, are also within the group.”

“What do you suggest we do to prevent the worst.’. Lin Bao “The disciplinary hall can move in when they go in to report about the prisoners. From what I know until now, Long Tao is not within the group as of now. Hence, we can forcefully snatch the prisoners, saying that they are under our jurisdiction and kill them of torture after we interrogate about what happened in the last few days. We have to know about what they told to Black-bucks.”. Lin Bao thought about it for some time, and he had to agree that Lin Hao’s plan was actually efficient. They needed to work according to it, and snatch the prisoners.

The black-buck squad came within the boundaries of the city but decided to stay within the borders. They didn’t go directly to report their arrival and inform about the prisoners. The torture that the prisoners went through, had already given them the required information about who gave up on the information about the ambush. It was someone from Lin Bao’s camp. Long Tao told them not to act rashly and wait for his arrival at the camp. He will take up the case and decided what to do with it, once he returns.

The Black-buck squad had one of the members to scout the inner matter of the borders and collect information about the current proceedings of the camp. The spies were dispatched to make contact with Long Tao too. They needed to hold for the sometimes top have a successful appeal before the court. Su Menqi herself went in to apply for a court appeal on a public demonstration of the prisoners while questioning them. The court judge asked for some time to get it registered and accepted by the upper brass. Su Menqi knew that she didn’t have any backing except for Long Tao, and she needed to be patient for his arrival. The prisoners were secretly moved to another location on the outskirts, while the report said they were being held in one. This was the trap to catch anyone who wanted to threaten the public appeal.

Forest regions-

Long Tao was traveling fast now, while his avatars within were conversing with the keepers and verifying their gains this time. “How much has the artifact managed to recover this time.?”. The keeper showed a smile on his face and said” We were able to increase the time ratio to 1:6 of the original. This is a huge breakthrough, and also a huge barrier. Any further improvement will require a large number of resources. If I may say, the next point will require the whole mine to be absorbed. You need to find more resources like these if you want to heal the artifact. Also, the Qi density has changed and the crimson lord QI river has started to form now. The lake will get bigger and bigger every second until it is basically a river. It will help the cultivation of the Medicines you decide to grow in the crimson lord world. Also, there has been a change occurring in the hell-heaven QI area. The change and improvement in the artifact have led to a power increase in the formation. Qi absorption has increased by 50%. More amount of Qi will be available from now on. Also, around 20% of the mine is remaining. You can easily cultivate until the Qi general level with the help of these stones. “.

One had to know that, given the size of the mine, 20% would be able to help a Qi general of the first level to reach the pinnacle. But Long Tao was different. The amount of Qi he requires to rise up by one level was humongous. The estimation predicted that he would be able to train until the 2nd level of QI general at most. Long Tao was still thrilled by the gains. The risk undertaken was worth it. He decided that his two avatars were to concentrate whole-heartedly on training and the rise of the cultivation level. The next plan of his was to stay within the military camp for a month to improve the cultivation level by at least 2 stages. Only then would he undertake the next assignment. The beast bodies of the two-level 4 beasts would last him for a long time, at least for 8 rotations. He currently had the resource to cultivate the Weapon forging art and forge weapons for all of his present acupoints. But he decided to cultivate the Blood tempering art to its peak first.

As Long Tao was nearing the city of Tamar, the collapse of my region suddenly heard another blast, as a figure got out from the debris. It was none other than the Blood general. His body was badly riddled with injuries. The fight with the Slytherin was already exhausting, and the collapse of the mine in the consecutive time period resulted in the bad mutilation. His mind was filled with hatred for Long Tao. That bastard was able to trick him into this situation and even got away with the resource. “Who are you? Raise your hands and kneel on the ground” a voice was heard. These were te4h men of the Chu military who came up after the incident. When the man turned, the one who just spoke felt his soul escape its body. The Blood general. It was him.

.....

Tamar-

Lin Hao once again entered Lin bao’s retreat. “What is the matter now?”. Lin Hao bowed in salute and then reported” The Black-buck squad just appealed for a public hearing and they are not registering the captured peoples. They have decided to hold them within a place near their own dwelling. They know about it” The situation was against them. ??What do you suggest then?”. “I suggest we send assassins to execute them, and if not possible, we can think of a way to forcibly take possession of the prisoners and kill them with torture.” Lin Bao “Sending assassin would be insufficient. You can’t contract an above Qi master grade assassin, not worth the risk and payment. As per those in Qi master, they will just get slaughtered. Think of another way.” Lin Hao was thrown into deep thought about the matter. What the general said was true. Although, no visual of Long Tao was present what if he is waiting in shadows. He was a scheming person.

The black-buck had successfully moved the prisoners and were celebrating their return in the nearby restaurant. The previous two months were filled with extreme peril and hard work. There were many near-death situation occurring and although they were dissatisfied with the method, the increase in strength was undeniable. The boost was something they never expected. Long Tao managed to convert the whole squad into that of Qi masters. All of the members were eligible to become squad leader now, but who would dare leave the squad. The benefits they obtain here were undeniable. Just the amount of resources they obtained from the compensation the lieutenants paid was enough for them to be mesmerized.

The dishes were being served when suddenly an unwanted guest arrived. It was none other than Lin Hao.” If it’s not the Black-buck squad. I heard of you guys returning. Congratulations on the finish of all the missions. The squad is officially the rank 1 as of now. The leader had done great work.” He looked at Su Menqi. The expression of the member was icy. They knew that the one trying to sabotage their mission was none other than Lin Hao and his accomplices. But Su Menqi still showed an unwavering expression” To what do I owe the pleasure of visit form Squadron leader Lin.” Lin Hao was surprised by the calmness and icy attitude of the whole squad. He knew that he had to snatch the prisoners.” I have come here on behalf of the Disciplinary hall master to take the prisoners of war.”

Su Menqi laughed” there are no prisoners of war with us “. Lin Hao’s expression changed. He knew that the Blackbuck hadn’t registered them. But how could he give up.” I already know of the appeal you submitted to the judicial hall this morning about a public hearing. May I know what the matter is about to be discussed. The disciplinary hall is responsible for the holding and interrogation of the prisoners.”. Su Menqi gave a thoughtful expression and said” That would be true officially, but I haven’t registered any prisoners in the judicial hall. So, nothing to take. Please leave with your subordinates. “Lin Hao’s patience was starting to reach its limit. Such disrespect from someone like Su Menqi was unacceptable.

“I would like to meet the vice-leader of yours for a talk then.”. Lin Hao was hell-bent on taking the prisoners, even if he had to brawl for it to happen. He couldn’t let them go into the public hearing the next morning. ” I am afraid the vice-leader is not present at the moment. We can talk once we reach the public hearing tomorrow. Something tells me you two will get lots of time to talk with each other after the public hearing.” Su Menqi said with a thoughtful smile. Lin Hao’s face was filled with popping veins. “Then I will have to search the compound personally and see whether there is no prisoners. You know just to be sure.” He had said that, and the whole Black-buck squad was in possession of their arms, facing them towards Lin Hao” Don’t overstep your boundaries Squadron leader”.

“I see that you have got something to hide. Guards”. Lin Hao signaled for the capture and forceful entrance, when suddenly the guards who stepped forward, were ripped apart. Blood flowed everywhere, and a figure came into view. It was like a devil incarnate had just appeared. Long Tao came forward and said with a sympathetic voice” I suppose, crippling the son of your general was not enough. I need to kill all his subordinates to teach him how to behave.” The guards were scared shitless. When Lin Hao took many steps back, by pure instinct. A feeling of death prevailed the atmosphere.” Vice-leader, this is not allowed according to the ethics of the army. You are committing a big amount of sins. Long Tao laughed” I suppose you forgot, why I crippled your brother. Trespassing into my territory is strictly prohibited.” Lin Hao knew that he couldn’t take the prisoners, now that Long Tao is here. Any further advances would result in the massacre of his people. “I would require you to submit half of this year’s earning for this disrespect. You have two days to submit it. Otherwise, I would pay a visit to you.”
