In front of the gate, a figure slowly walked over. His eyes were deep and his steps were steady.
"Zhou Yang!"
"How can it be? How can he still be alive?"
"Look, there's a head in his hand."
"Could it be that he successfully killed Blood Disciple …"
The crowd was in an uproar. Even Wan Bugui and He Lanshan looked at the scene in disbelief.
After a while, Zhou Yang walked in front of Xiao Lin and threw Blood Disciple's head next to Wan Bugui. "Zhou Yang did not fail his mission. Blood Disciple's head has been brought back."
"Impossible!"
Wan Bugui lifted the black cloth off the head and his face darkened.
"This is truly unimaginable, simply unimaginable."
"He doesn't look injured. How is this possible …"
The crowd was in a heated discussion. No one wanted to believe that this was true.
"Haha … Good. Zhou Yang, you've infiltrated deep into the enemy's city and killed the Blood Disciples. You've done a great service for our Dragonmartial Country. I'll definitely report this to the higher-ups when I return to the Imperial City." Xiao Lin said excitedly.
"We still need to investigate. It's too careless to believe him just like that," Wan Bugui said unhappily.
"General Wan's words make sense. I'll definitely consider it. However, before Zhou Yang left, General Wan said that as long as Zhou Yang brought back Blood Disciple's head, he would receive a fifth-grade military merit and become a Martial Warrior. There's no such thing as child's play in the military," Xiao Lin said with a smile.
Wan Bugui's expression was very ugly. After a long while, he waved his sleeve and left.
Xiao Lin could not help but laugh. "Zhou Yang has completed the mission or become a Martial Warrior with a fifth-grade military merit."
Hearing Xiao Lin's words, Zhou Yang could not help but heave a sigh of relief. His Martial Warrior status was ten times more difficult than others. Fortunately, he still succeeded.
"Alright, Zhou Yang, you've become a Martial Warrior. Now, follow us back to the prefecture city."
"General Xiao, the Martial Warrior assessment is over. I think I can settle my personal grudge now."
At this moment, He Lanshan suddenly stepped forward and said.
Xiao Lin's expression turned cold. "You attacked a Martial Warrior in your own city. Don't you want to be the governor?"
Hearing this, He Lanshan smiled coldly as if he had already expected this. "Fine, then I will wait for him to leave the city. Let's see how long General Xiao can protect him then."
He Lanshan was obviously ready to shed all pretense of cordiality. After he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"General Xiao, may I know where my brother Guo Dazhuang has gone?"
After He Lanshan left, Zhou Yang asked doubtfully. He had noticed that Guo Dazhuang was not here from the beginning, and Zhou Shaoyu, Song Tianzong and many others had disappeared.
"It's a long story. In short, something has happened in the county city. It seems like demons have appeared. When you return, you will naturally know. Let's go," Xiao Lin said with a worried expression.
"General Xiao, please go ahead. I'll be right behind you." Zhou Yang nodded and walked toward the quartermaster's office.
He had already obtained a Tier 5 Military Merit. According to the rules of the military, he could exchange it for resources. He hadn't done so before because Tier 4 Military Merit couldn't be exchanged for anything good.
After arriving at the quartermaster's office, Zhou Yang reported his name. When the wardens heard that it was Zhou Yang, they were shocked and quickly sent someone to inquire about the situation. Finally, they agreed to let Zhou Yang exchange for cultivation resources.
Looking at the densely packed exchange list on the walls of the office, Zhou Yang could not help but sigh. The resources in the military were indeed more complete than in the Institute of Martial Arts.
"Fortunately, I didn't use Tier 4 Military Merit to exchange for resources. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to get this Grade 1 Star Elixir."
Zhou Yang had a trace of joy on his face as his gaze stopped on a line of words.
"Grade 1 Star Elixir. 10,000 resource points required. Tier 5 Military Merit required!"
Resource points were actually military merits. Guo Dazhuang had already told him that.
A Tier 1 Military Merit was equivalent to 1 resource point. A Tier 2 Military Merit was equivalent to 10, and a Tier 3 Military Merit was equivalent to 100 …
A Tier 5 Military Merit was equivalent to 10,000.
The corresponding resource points for military merits were not accumulated. In other words, a Tier 5 Military Merit required 10,000 resource points. If he had used it before, he would not have 10,000 resource points today.
Fortunately, he did not use it.
"I want to exchange for a Grade 1 Star Elixir." Zhou Yang looked at the warden.
The warden seemed to have expected this and handed a box to Zhou Yang.
After Zhou Yang took it, he hurriedly opened it to take a look. It was a green pill with a mysterious pattern on it.
"One pattern."
One pattern meant that this Star Elixir was the most ordinary one and could only increase one's cultivation level by one level.
Although he was a little disappointed, he did not care too much. He had never thought of using this Star Elixir directly. The reason he exchanged for it was so that he could refine this valuable elixir faster in the future.
After all, the Star Elixir could only be used once in each realm. Even if he could not use the best one, he could not use the worst one.
After putting away the elixir, Zhou Yang did not leave through the South Gate with Xiao Lin. Instead, he took an Appearance Changing Elixir and changed his appearance before heading to the East Gate.
With his current strength, he had no chance of winning against Helan Shan. Therefore, he had to avoid him for the time being.
"I wonder when I can break through to the Mercury Realm."
Looking back at Border City, Zhou Yang could not help but sigh.
He had gained a lot from this trip to Border City, but at the same time, he had some regrets.
He had not killed the boss of the Bloodthirst Group.
Clearly, Helan Shan did not know that he had left. There were almost no obstructions along the way.
In the evening, he arrived outside the county city. However, he was not in a hurry to enter the city. Instead, he stopped outside the city.
Clearly, something had happened in the county city. His best choice was to sneak into the county city at night to find out what was going on before making a plan.
"Kid, there's a problem here."
Just as he was resting, the dragon spirit suddenly spoke with a hint of doubt in its tone.
"What's the problem?" Zhou Yang asked.
"I don't know. I sense a very strange power in the West. It's somewhat familiar, but I can't recall it. However, I'm sure that there's a treasure there," the dragon spirit said with certainty.
"The West? That's a mass grave … You can't be talking about Meteorite Tower, right?"
"Meteorite Tower … I don't know what you're talking about. Take me there now."
Zhou Yang thought for a moment and finally decided to go and take a look.
A moment later, he arrived outside the mass grave. In the distance was Meteorite Tower.
"That's right. It's under that tower. Good stuff, definitely good stuff. Kid, what are you waiting for?" the dragon spirit said excitedly.
"Under the tower …" Zhou Yang shook his head. He knew what the dragon spirit was talking about.
Back when he had obtained the Magma Giant God star soul, he had discovered that there was a third level in Meteorite Tower. However, the underground passageway gave him an extremely dangerous feeling.
Even now, he still felt that he would definitely die if he went in.
"I can bring you to the tower, but I definitely won't go down."
As he spoke, he stood up and slowly approached Meteorite Tower.
"Get down. Don't move."
