Divine Seal: A Bao was born, and the delicate beauty was snatched away

Chapter 197 Seclusion, Emergency Mission

Since returning from the Demon Realm, Feng Haochen and his team have had quite a few things going on lately.

Besides being sent to Electrolux and the Tower of Eternity by his father, Feng Haochen also brought the Light Elemental Spirit with him, which was also placed inside the Tower of Eternity.

In the end, that little family recognized Feng Haochen as their master.

As for the existence of the Aion and Electrolux, Feng Haochen eventually told his teammates.

When Lin Xin learned that Feng Haochen's father had become a ninth-level expert, he almost jumped up.

"You actually kept this from us?!"

"My father is certainly powerful, but the title of 'necromancer' is even more terrifying, isn't it?"

"But your father did it for your mother..."

Cai'er held Feng Haochen's hand, knowing what he was worried about. While comforting Feng Haochen, she also conveyed the same message to the other teammates.

His father also cared about these things, so over the years he had always acted as an ordinary person when traveling among humans, and he was extremely discreet when doing things for them.

Ayalina told Feng Haochen all of this through Electrolux.

"It's alright, we're all on the same side. Your father didn't do anything to harm humanity. Haochen, as our leader, you almost risked your life to save us several times. We won't tell anyone about these things, so don't take it too hard."

Lin Xin patted Feng Haochen on the shoulder, having already decided not to tell his father and grandfather about this.

When Aunt Yue'er had her accident, Lin Xin was still very young. Later, whenever the matter was mentioned, Lin Xin saw that his father and the others were always filled with self-blame.

Although Aunt Yue'er later came back to life, this incident was indeed a scar on the hearts of the Lin family.

If his grandfather and father knew all this, wouldn't they be heartbroken?

"However, I discovered that the Tower of Eternity that my father left me has other uses."

Feng Haochen excitedly told everyone that the cultivation speed inside the Eternal Tower was different from that outside, which surprised and delighted everyone.

Like Hao Chen's father, the Temple cannot be told, and neither can the Tower of Eternity.

While helping Feng Haochen keep the secret, everyone also decided to go into seclusion.

Although their first general-level mission was narrowly successful, it made everyone realize how insignificant their strength was. If something went wrong, they wouldn't even have a chance to fight back.

With the Eternal Tower in hand, Feng Haochen decided that everyone should go into seclusion to break through to the sixth rank.

As a result, Leng Xiao could only postpone telling her parents about Feng Jing's details, and before going into seclusion, she only sent back a brief message: "The contract has been successfully formed. We will discuss the details when we meet in the future."

When Ayalina and Fengxiu found out what their precious child and Fengjing had said, they almost vomited.

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed.

The members of the Demon Hunter Team No. 21, who had been in seclusion, emerged one after another, and all of them had broken through to the sixth rank.

Feng Haochen was the first to break through. Unlike in the original book, this time Feng Haochen learned the necromancy shared by Electrox after entering the Tower of Eternity.

Although he still refused to become Electrolux's last disciple, calling Electrolux "Grandmaster," Electrolux's eyelids twitched.

That makes him sound very old.

Feng Haochen was even more talented than his father in learning necromancy, but he preferred to study knight skills rather than become a necromancer.

Therefore, it is understandable that Feng Haochen is a little slower in practicing necromancy.

However, because Leng Xiao and Feng Jing formed a bond, Feng Jing also entered the Tower of Eternity.

With Feng Jing's strength, while everyone else was cultivating, he was the only one causing chaos. Electrolux and Feng Jing would also argue every now and then.

Although the two are from different planes and even different species, their insults are remarkably similar, both being extremely offensive.

Electrolux continued cursing, "Anyone with the surname Feng is a bad person!" Feng Haochen had overheard this once before, but before he could ask, Electrolux retorted, "Don't ask, or I'll tell you about your whole family!"

Feng Haochen: ???

It's fair to say that not only Feng Haochen, but also Leng Xiao, have been through a lot these past few months.

Because of Feng Jing, Leng Xiao was also disliked by Electrolux.

Unlike Feng Haochen, Leng Xiao is Ayalina's daughter, a fact that Electrolux is also aware of.

Therefore, Leng Xiao's training was always more difficult than others, and because of this, Feng Jing couldn't stand it anymore.

He stood up for Leng Xiao, but Leng Xiao was blamed and suffered misfortune again. Feng Jing continued to stand up for her, and Leng Xiao suffered misfortune once more, creating a vicious cycle.

Although it sounds unlucky, it's not all bad.

Leng Xiao's cultivation level improved extremely quickly. Although she wasn't the first to break through to the sixth rank, she was the highest-level member of the team after her three-month seclusion.

Sixth rank, eighth level.

Their seclusion was originally not supposed to be for more than three months, but then the Demon Hunter Mission Tower sent an urgent message, mandating a war mission.

All demon hunter groups remaining in the Holy City were ordered to participate.

If a member of a high-ranking demon hunter team does not participate, each member will have 10,000 merit points deducted as punishment. The higher the rank of the demon hunter team, the more merit points will be deducted.

Such emergency war missions are rare, only issued by the Mission Tower when the Alliance faces a major crisis. However, they are also highly mandatory, and the consequences of not participating are extremely severe.

Although Feng Haochen and his group have enough funds to pay the fine, it would cost them 60,000 merit points. Even excluding the squire Han Yu, it was still something they were absolutely unwilling to accept.

After discussing it with his partners, Feng Haochen went to the quest tower to accept the quest. The quest tower gave all the demon hunter teams three days to rest.

Taking advantage of this time, thinking about the unknown and urgent war missions to come, everyone spent a lot of money to change their equipment.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Early in the morning, forty-two carriages were waiting quietly outside the Demon Hunter Group's villa area, most of them with a number on their carriages.

Among them were four sergeant-level, nine general-level, twenty-two marshal-level, four king-level, and three carriages without numbers, which were at the very front of all the carriages.

Forty-two demon-hunting teams set off together on a mission, which is quite rare in the Temple Alliance.

More than two hundred elite members of the alliance.

Moreover, they were all powerful individuals who had risked their lives in battles against the demons. They quietly boarded the train according to their assigned numbers, and even now, they still did not know what their mission was.

All I know is that the destination is Zhennanguan, where the priest's temple is located.

Alongside the forty-two demon-hunting squads, a group of elite troops directly under the Temple Alliance were also on board.

Among them, the reinforcements sent by the Knights Temple were the most powerful, consisting of a Knights Temple order of one hundred men directly commanded by Knight Commander Han Qian.

It was composed entirely of seventh-tier Templar Knights.

Even more terrifying is that all the Templar Knights in this order are Mithril-based Knights. They are the true core elite of the Knights' Temple.

This also shows how huge a crisis Zhennanguan was facing.

Han Qian, the Grand Master of the Knights Temple, was also the overall commander of this operation. All 42 demon-hunting squads and more than 5,000 elite reinforcements from the six major temples were under his command.

Feng Haochen and his companions boarded the carriage marked with the rank of General No. 21. Their mission was simple: follow the main force to Zhennanguan. Specific war missions would be assigned upon arrival at Zhennanguan.

For some reason, Leng Xiao felt her eyelids twitching, as if something bad was about to happen...

The plot of the Battle of Zhennanguan will likely be significantly altered, with some later scenes needing to be moved to earlier ones.

After Zhennanguan, you'll reach Dream Paradise!
