Fang Lei was full of expectations. He hoped to meet He Qiang at the Hunter Association branch.
On the way to the Hunter Association branch, he opened the data terminal and easily looked up the flat map of Heyang City.
The Hunters Association branch is strategically located in the heart of the city.
Following the guidance of the map, Fang Lei successfully found his destination, a majestic high-rise building, which is the location of the Hunter Association branch.
After looking up to confirm the eye-catching characters "Hunter Association Branch" on the plaque, he walked in calmly.
However, the guard's stern scolding interrupted his pace. Faced with the guard's question, Fang Lei did not respond, but calmly took out his hunter's license to prove his identity.
After seeing the license, the guard's expression instantly became awe-inspiring. When he was released, he respectfully said: "Dear Mr. Hunter, please come in."
After entering the building of the Hunter Association branch, Fang Lei first came to the front desk. The receptionist at the front desk asked: "What can I do for you?"
Facing the receptionist's inquiry, Fang Lei responded politely: "Hello, I'm a newcomer here to register!"
After speaking, Fang Lei took out his hunter's license and asked the receptionist to check it.
The receptionist took one look and responded: "The hunter's license is genuine and it is impossible to forge it. Since you are a newcomer reporting, go to room 206 on the second floor and wait for arrangements!"
After hearing this, Fang Lei said thank you and went to room 206.
When he arrived at room 206, there was no one in the room, so Fang Lei sat on the sofa and practiced the "Qi Nourishing Breathing Method" and waited quietly for arrangements.
About ten minutes later, an old man with gray hair, a ruddy complexion, and a witty gleam in his eyes came to room 206.
He glanced at Fang Lei and said with a gentle smile on his face: "You are Fang Lei who Xiao He strongly recommended to join the Hunter Association, right?"
Then he introduced himself: "My name is Wang Zhentian, and I am the vice president of the Hunter Association branch."
"Dear Vice President, hello!" Fang Lei said hello to Wang Zhentian.
At the same time, he couldn't help but become curious about Wang Zhentian's strength and cultivation.
【Name】Wang Zhentian
[War Spirit Totem]? ? ?
[Cultivation] Level 2 Exploration Warrior
[Physical fitness] Twenty-three thousand five hundred and twenty degrees
After seeing this set of data, Fang Lei suddenly felt a storm in his heart.
"I didn't expect that the vice president of the Hunter Association branch would be at the exploration level!" Fang Lei was surprised inwardly.
Fang Lei asked: "Is instructor He Qiang here?"
Wang Zhentian replied seriously: "He Qiang is not back yet, he is on a mission."
“As a member of the Hunters Association, it is necessary to fulfill the association’s mission,” he added.
Fang Lei replied: "I know, instructor He Qiang has already told me."
"Then let me tell you, the missions of the Hunter Association are divided into D-level to S-level." Wang Zhentian explained.
"D-level corresponds to basic-level hunter apprentices, C-level corresponds to amateur hunters, B-level corresponds to professional hunters, A-level corresponds to professional hunters, and S-level corresponds to exploratory hunters!"
"Then what is my mission now?" Fang Lei asked.
Wang Zhentian responded: "Fang Lei, you don't have to worry. Usually tasks are carried out in teams of two."
"I will help you arrange a suitable partner tomorrow. Also, have you arranged your place to live? If not, the Hunter Association can also provide you with accommodation."
"Then I'll trouble you, Vice President." Fang Lei said politely.
"This is what I should do." Zhentian replied with a smile.
Later, Wang Zhentian led Fang Lei to his residence.
"The third floor of the Hunter Association branch is where hunter apprentices live, the fourth floor is where amateur hunters live, and the fifth floor is where professional hunters like you live."
"The sixth floor is the living area for professional hunters, and the seventh floor is the living area for exploration hunters."
"They are completely divided according to their strength!" Fang Lei said with emotion.
Wang Zhentian responded: "You are right, not only the Hunter Association, but also other major forces are divided according to strength."
Wang Zhentian took Fang Lei to room 503 on the fifth floor and left.
When Fang Lei stepped into Room 503, he was shocked by the sight in front of him.
This room covers an area of about 200 square meters and is filled with various items. There is even a test chamber for testing physical fitness.
Fang Lei began to clean the room carefully, and then went to the store to buy some food.
After returning to his room after shopping, he began to practice with concentration without being disturbed by the outside world.
When the sun went down, Fang Lei ended his training. Since he was alone, he chose to go out for a walk and get familiar with Heyang City.
Heyang City, a city with hundreds of millions of residents, is showing its unique charm.
People who have been working for a day gather together, adding a bustle and vitality to the city.
As night falls, the plaques of the shops on both sides of the street light up one after another, making them colorful.
Fang Lei stopped to watch the lively night market scene for a while, and did not return to the Hunter Association until ten o'clock in the evening.
At this time, the guards at the entrance of the Hunter Association changed shifts. One was the day shift and the other was the night shift.
After Fang Lei entered his room, he suddenly found Wang Zhentian and a strange man inside.
When Wang Zhentian saw Fang Lei, he pointed at the strange man and said, "Your partner has been determined, it's him, his name is Chu Chengzhao!"
When Fang Lei looked at Chu Chengzhao, he couldn't help but be a little stunned. This young man of similar age was 1.8 meters tall and wearing a black vest. At first glance, he gave people the illusion of being fat.
But if you look closely, you will see that he is not fat, but has strong muscles. His muscles are very thick and knotted.
If you want to compare, Fang Lei's muscles are as strong as a tiger, while Chu Chengzhao's muscles are more like a brown bear, appearing more ferocious and strong.
Chu Chengzhao greeted Fang Lei with a simple and innocent smile and nodded gently.
Fang Lei also responded politely. He had never seen such a strong physique.
Wang Zhentian looked at the two of them and explained: "You two are new here. According to the regulations of the Hunter Association, you don't have to go out to perform tasks for the time being. You only have to perform tasks in Heyang City."
Fang Lei asked casually: "Where is the mission?"
"There is a place where missions are announced in the lobby on the first floor of the Hunter Association. You can check it out." After that, he left.
Chu Chengzhao cupped his fists and said, "Brother Fang, I'm not as strong as you. Please take care of me in the future."
Fang Lei found out that Chu Chengzhao's strength and cultivation was that of a first-class professional warrior, his physical fitness was 113 degrees, and his fighting spirit totem was the level 2 (infancy) of the Violent Demonic Bear.
"Don't take it seriously. Brother Chu's strength is no worse than mine. We need to take care of each other." Fang Lei said modestly.
Chu Chengzhao is a simple and honest person, giving people a feeling of spring breeze, and it is not difficult to get along with him.
Early the next morning, there was a "bang bang bang" knock on the door. Fang Lei opened the door and saw a staff member of the Hunter Association knocking on the door.
"Two Mr. Hunters, we have a mission." The staff said eagerly.
Fang Lei and Chu Chengzhao walked out of the Hunter Association and met a young man in his twenties.
The staff introduced: "This is Captain Li from the Heyang City Patrol Team."
Heyang City's protective force system mainly consists of three parts: the patrol team responsible for patrolling the city, the Warrior Alliance and the Hunter Association.
The patrol team mainly maintains public security and daily affairs in the city. Cases involving suspected monsters or that cannot be handled will usually be reported to the Warriors Alliance and Hunter Association.
After screening, if they feel suspicious, warriors from the Warrior Alliance and hunters from the Hunter Association will be invited to assist.
"Mr. Hunters, please follow me." Captain Li said succinctly.
Then, he led Fang Lei and the two into the main hall of the patrol team, and then came to a slightly dark small room.
There was a patrol member in his early twenties standing in front of the door. He shook his head, indicating that everything was normal.
Captain Li pushed open the door and entered, followed closely by Fang Lei.
There was a girl in the room, who looked about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was very frightened and trembling all over.
"These two are hunters from the Hunter Association. They will protect your safety." Captain Li reassured.
"Wu Yan, please repeat what you told me before."
Wu Yan hesitated and said: "My classmate Ji Yucheng...he is a monster!"
Wu Yan is a student at Tianfeng Academy in Heyang City.
Fang Lei and Chu Chengzhao naturally understood the meaning of Wu Yan's words. If that was the case, the situation would be very serious.
Heyang City is divided into five major areas: east, south, west, north, and middle. The Hunter Association is in the middle area, and Tianfeng Academy is in the north area.
The size of Tianfeng Academy is similar to that of Tyne Academy. The teaching staff is very strong. There are many warriors who come to study, and Wu Yan is one of them.
She is introverted and likes to observe everything around her, including people.
She had basically observed Wu Yan's classmates and teachers, but suddenly one day, she found that her classmate Ji Yucheng was different from before.
In the past, Ji Yucheng was not noticeable in the college's classes, and his grades were even worse than Wu Yan.
However, during class this morning, Ji Yucheng wore a mask and a hat, only exposing the part below his nose.
When the instructor asked why, Ji Yucheng said that his face was scratched, so he wore a mask to avoid scaring others.
After hearing this, the teacher didn't ask any questions and warned the students not to make fun of Ji Yucheng.
Wu Yan paid special attention to Ji Yucheng's changes because she usually observed every classmate very carefully.
She felt that Ji Yucheng gave people an uncomfortable feeling overall and was more silent than before.
Ji Yucheng would only answer when the instructor asked questions, and he would no longer talk to the classmates next to him during breaks.
When other students talked to him, he only spoke in a perfunctory manner.
Wu Yan suspected that Ji Yucheng's injury was faked. This was her sixth sense from women.
So Wu Yan decided to follow Ji Yucheng after school to see if he would take off his mask on the way.
After school, Wu Yan always paid attention to Ji Yucheng's position and followed him cautiously.
Wu Yan was afraid of being discovered by Ji Yucheng, so she didn't dare to get too close, and finally followed him into the alleyway of the North District.
During this process, Wu Yan was not afraid of being lost at all. Suddenly, Ji Yucheng walked into a dead alley and did not come out for a long time.
Wu Yan knew that if she walked to the alley, she would probably be discovered by Ji Yucheng, so she hurried to the adjacent alley.
She discovered that this alley turned out to be a complete dead end. Wu Yan approached the wall at the end of the alley and found a gap in the wall. Through this gap, she could see the entire dead alley.
Wu Yan quickly approached the gap and observed carefully. In this quiet alley, Wu Yan suddenly discovered that Ji Yucheng was holding the ground with his hands and his whole body was shaking.
Wu Yan was shocked. Just when she was at a loss, Ji Yucheng's hands made new movements. He stretched out his hands shaking and began to untie the mask.
Less than three seconds after the mask was removed, Wu Yan was horrified to find that Ji Yucheng turned into a two-meter-long python.
Wu Yan was so frightened that she almost screamed and quickly covered her mouth.
She never expected that her classmate Ji Yucheng would be a monster in disguise.
When Wu Yan saw this scene, her whole body trembled. She was so frightened that she took a step back and did not dare to continue watching.
She quietly turned around and left, never daring to look back, and ran quickly towards the patrol.
"After I ran away, I kept coming to the patrol team. That Ji Yucheng is a monster!" Wu Yan shouted.
