"Three hundred and twelve horse legs, not one more, not one less!" Tang Zhong said calmly.
No one believed Tang Zhong’s words were true, but everyone had to believe it as horse legs were continuously taken out from Tang Zhong’s battle armor space, and the number was ample enough.
Huang Xiang’s face beca increasingly unsightly; these horse legs were sturdier one after another, and the power emanating from them showed that they weren’t counterfeit but were real skeleton horse legs!
Lucian quickly approached Tang Zhong, checking each horse leg, and as he confird each one to be real, his expression changed. Until he finished inspecting the last one, Lucian’s breathing beca rapid, and he stared at the horse legs dumbfoundedly, finally shifting his gaze to Tang Zhong. In disbelief, he asked, "Did you really kill all of these?"
"Yes!" Tang Zhong nodded indifferently.
"Then congratulations ... you’ve completed an A-rank mission!" Lucian confird, without any problem; it was evident that this person completed the task!
"Could it be wrong?" Huang Xiang was still incredulous, stepping forward to ask.
"Are you questioning ?" Lucian’s expression turned ice-cold. Even a fool could see Huang Xiang was antagonizing Tang Zhong, and since Tang Zhong was a promising talent, how could Lucian possibly antagonize him?
Upon hearing this tone, Huang Xiang knew what had happened. Looking at Tang Zhong, his pupils were filled with shock, muttering softly, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, he’s just a rookie, how could he be so strong!"
"But he killed Yang Tian!" Huang Xiang was still unwilling to accept it.
"Yes, I killed Yang Tian. So what?" Tang Zhong chuckled, "Yang Tian wanted to kill , but I turned the tables on him. I think this all ties back to you, doesn’t it? Otherwise, you wouldn’t be targeting so deliberately. Either you have an underling relationship with him, or you ordered him to kill !"
"Nonsense!" Huang Xiang shouted.
"Seems you didn’t send him to kill , so you must have so unspeakable secrets with him. Tsk tsk, Captain Huang, I didn’t expect you to be such a person... With Yang Tian’s large butt, your days must be quite comfortable!" Tang Zhong smiled.
"You’re asking for death!" Huang Xiang was almost about to burst into curse words. He’d lived so long and had never been this angry.
"Death?" Tang Zhong laughed.
Upon hearing this, Huang Xiang felt deeply vexed but could only swallow it down. With Tang Zhong completing this mission, he was destined to beco a lieutenant. Once he could crush Tang Zhong, but now, even with all his strength, he wouldn’t dare harm him. This feeling was exceptionally unpleasant!
Moreover, he had to change his stance now; persisting as before would lead to disaster.
"Do you want to kill ?" Tang Zhong approached Huang Xiang.
"No...no!" Huang Xiang shook his head.
"Didn’t you just say you wanted to kill ? Why are you changing your tune now? Also, Yang Tian tried to kill , and I killed him instead. Do you think what I did was justified?" Tang Zhong ached closer step by step.
Huang Xiang stumbled back almost falling to the ground; the powerful aura emanating from Tang Zhong made him uncomfortable.
"I... I didn’t, I didn’t say it was right; Yang Tian’s unethical ways deserved death!"
Thump, thump, thump!
Huang Xiang’s heart was pounding furiously.
"Oh, I knew it, Captain Huang was just joking with . After all, Captain Huang is quite a decent person!" Tang Zhong smiled suddenly and extended his hand.
Huang Xiang’s heart fluttered even faster, his forehead drenched with cold sweat, unsure of Tang Zhong’s intentions with such flattery; surely, it was a sche.
"In the future, there’s a good chance I’ll have to work with Captain Huang Xiang officially, so let introduce myself again. My na is Tang Zhong, and my personality is such that, whoever provokes , I usually won’t let them go."
Seeing the hand suspended in mid-air, Huang Xiang didn’t know what to say, but he stretched out his own hand, reluctantly forcing a smile: "My na is Huang Xiang, pleased to work with Captain Tang, rest assured, if anyone dares touch you, I’ll be the first one who won’t stand for it."
Though Huang Xiang seed calm now, internally he was a stormy sea, quickly pulling his hand back and refusing to even look at Tang Zhong. He retreated to the ship and left in disgrace.
"Damn it, damned Tang Zhong!" Huang Xiang was nearly enraged; in front of so many, including a bigwig from the Mission Hall, where would his face go henceforth?
Liu Kang approached and said, "Captain Huang, we absolutely can’t let that guy bully people like that, damn it!"
"Rest assured, I will never let him off!" Huang Xiang said through gritted teeth, determined not to give Tang Zhong an easy ti next ti. He couldn’t fathom what trick that damn guy used to obtain those skeleton horse legs, but he was sure it wasn’t Tang Zhong who killed them; soone else must have. Just wait, he would find his chance to give Tang Zhong a hard ti.
anwhile, on the other side.
Lucian looked at Tang Zhong, smiling with praise, "No wonder the saying goes ’heroes erge young’; from a rookie a month ago to becoming a lieutenant, I will imdiately return to promote your rank and spread your deeds for others to learn. After all, such an epic feat is a good example!"
"No need, Lord Lucian; please don’t spread the news about , I don’t want too many people to know." Tang Zhong waved his hand.
He wanted to keep a low profile, as too much trouble was never good.
Lucian was stunned for a mont, then laughed, "Alright, I understand. When I return, I’ll just promote your rank, and regarding your mission accomplishnt, I won’t say a word!"
Because of this alone, Lucian praised Tang Zhong even more. If it were soone else, they would’ve likely wanted everyone to know them; after all, it was enough to make waves.
"Alright, Tang Zhong, let’s head back together!" Lucian continued.
"Hmm!" Tang Zhong nodded firmly.
Originally, Lucian ca to pick up those who completed the rookie assessnt; unexpectedly, he encountered such a peculiar event.
Throughout the journey, he conversed with Tang Zhong multiple tis.
Tang Zhong was still willing to befriend him.
In the Galactic Guard, having good relations was undoubtedly beneficial.
Soon, they returned to the Galactic Guard base.
As they disembarked, Jiang Shuiyao pulled Tang Zhong to a corner: "Let tell you, I will never let you go. Our Fire Guard is set on you; trust , if Earth Guard doesn’t treat you well, co to us in the Fire Guard!"
Tang Zhong only smiled, not saying a word.
Jiang Shuiyao stomped her feet angrily, "Will you co to our Fire Guard or not? If you co to us, I’ll marry you, alright?"
Before she finished her words, she saw Tang Zhong already turned around and left.
Jiang Shuiyao was dumbfounded: "Damn Tang Zhong... damned Tang Zhong, I’ve said so much, and you... you act like you didn’t hear!"
Tang Zhong indeed heard, but he didn’t take it seriously; he had little ti and now needed to find a place to examine what was going on with the blood crystal he obtained from the bloody earth.
