Chapter 274: Hope

Zhao Tianji's death made Shen Hao frown, originally thinking that with his ability to seek good fortune and avoid evil, how could he support his return to China. Moreover, his sacrifice caused the domestic Nightmare Hunters to lose their most important "eyes", which was quite detrimental to the counterattack they would launch later.

"What about the True Martial Hall and the Ten Thousand Immortal Palace?" Shen Hao hesitated for a long time, and then asked.

"The few strongholds that the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall has finally re-established have been uprooted by the Nightmare Demons again, and this time it is more complete, including a few peripheral members of the Nightmare Hunters, who are also dead." Guo You smiled bitterly and shook his head, "The losses of the True Martial Hall are also very heavy, the five deputy hall masters have hung up four of them this time, and the rudders stationed in various places have almost been destroyed. I heard that now their Mo Hall Master is trying his best to shrink his power, including those who serve in the military, have also been recruited. ”

"Do you have a plan to fight back?" Shen Hao also sighed with him, he had long known that the situation in the country was very bad now, but he didn't expect it to be so bad. Even the most powerful organizations in the country have lost to this extent, and it is conceivable that the deaths and injuries of other small and medium-sized teams and ordinary people who are unaware must be even more staggering. Fortunately, the government has blocked all public opinion, blared all unnatural deaths on unknown diseases, and established quarantine areas for epidemic diseases in some areas, otherwise such a large-scale death event would have caused panic.

However, relying on public opinion to block alone is not a long-term solution, and now that it is the Internet era, many things cannot be blocked for a long time. Moreover, if there is no countermeasure, by the time the large-scale massacre of the demons begins, it may turn a city, a country, or even the entire earth into a desert of death overnight.

"Fight back? Alas, it's very difficult to protect yourself now......" Guo You looked out the window, "Maybe those powerful nightmare hunters might have some ideas, but like me, it's not an exaggeration to say that they are sitting and waiting for death." ”

Shen Hao and Guo You are actually only meeting for the second time, but in his impression, this is a positive, optimistic and energetic young man, but now he can't see a trace of hope for survival in his eyes, which makes Shen Hao's heart a wall for no reason.

He reached out and patted Guo You's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, those ghost things won't be around for long." I have good news for you, I have found a way to deal with them, and this time I have returned home to solve them once and for all. ”

"Really?!" Guo You's eyes lit up, and he wanted to get up excitedly, but he forgot that he was sitting in the car, snorting on the roof of the carriage, and he grinned in pain.

"Hehe, of course it's true, the situation in country M has stabilized, so I rushed back to clean up these guys in the country. You don't think I'm here to die, do you? Shen Hao smiled and patted the swollen head.

"I'm X, great! It is worthy of the legendary Brother Hao! Guo You's excited eyes were red, what is a desperate life? That's it. There was already a series of swear words popping out of his mouth uncontrollably, but it was not scolding, but he was simply expressing his excitement at the moment.

Huang Bo, who was driving, seemed to be much calmer, just congratulated him lightly, and scolded with a smile: "It's still Mr. Shen who has a way, this kid has been wilting like a rotten eggplant recently, I haven't been so excited for a long time......" Having said that, Shen Hao found that his driving hand was also trembling slightly, which shows that when he heard the news, his heart was not so calm on the surface.

"Hehe, 'Brother Hao in the Legend', what kind of name is this, it's too exaggerated, right?" Shen Hao took the cigarette that Guo You handed over, lit it for himself, and joked with a chuckle. However, this kid only thought of handing himself a cigarette at this time, obviously the blow to him from a large number of comrades-in-arms killed in battle some time ago had reached the limit.

"It's not an exaggeration at all, since I entered the industry, the old people in the five groups have been telling your old story, especially our Captain Chu......" At the mention of Chu Yunpeng, Guo You's voice suddenly lowered again, he was slightly silent, and said softly, "If only you could find a way to deal with those guys earlier......

If it had been earlier, there would not have been so many sacrifices. Of course, Shen Hao understood what Guo You's unfinished words were, maybe it was regret, maybe there was sadness, or maybe it was inevitable to have a trace of resentment against himself. Shen Hao suddenly sounded a line from a certain movie: "How much ability you have, how much responsibility you have." ”

Shen Hao didn't explain, just patted Guo You's shoulder again, and then leaned back into his seat. And Guo You and Huang Bo did not continue the brief excitement before, and the carriage fell silent.

To Shen Hao's surprise, Huang Bo and the others did not take Shen Hao to the station of the special fifth group, but turned to the door of a quaint courtyard near Houhai.

In the capital, there are many such courtyards, but the vast majority of them are not boxy, but they are all around, one in the east and one in the west, not too regular, not too neat. But the courtyard in front of me is not, this is the most regular courtyard, one main room in the north, two rooms in the west wing, two rooms in the east wing, and a very empty and bright courtyard in the middle, as well as a toon tree and a stone table and stone bench. Obviously, in the past, this must have been the residence of someone's dignitary.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, four or five men in Tang costumes walked towards the three of them, among them, the one who walked in the front, Shen Hao recognized it at a glance, that was the only remaining deputy hall master of the True Martial Hall, Ling Jiancheng.

"Junior, Ling Jiancheng, has seen Senior Shen." Ling Jiancheng looked to be in his thirties, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a dignified appearance, and a very tasteful mustache on his chin with a knife. Seeing Shen Hao's arrival, he bowed very politely, obviously he had been waiting for a long time.

"You're welcome." Shen Hao also arched his hand towards him, but his eyes swept around, and asked, "Is this the newly opened hall of the True Martial Arts Hall in the capital?" It seemed to be asking Ling Jiancheng on the other side, but his eyes fell on Huang Bo beside him intentionally or unintentionally.

"You can say that, but it's not comprehensive." Before Huang Bo could answer, Guo You, who was on the side, had already shrugged his shoulders and interjected.

"This time, the Demon Catastrophe is really beyond everyone's estimates, and all organizations have suffered heavy losses. Our hall in the capital has been destroyed, and it is the hunters who do it, so our remaining manpower can only be transferred immediately, and even the corpses of our comrades who died there do not dare to collect them with their own hands. Ling Jiancheng said with a wry smile, he made a gesture of invitation to Shen Hao, and led everyone towards the inner hall, "However, it is not only our True Martial Hall people who live here now, in fact, now in the capital, there are not a few people left in our True Martial Hall. Now in this courtyard, all the surviving Hunters from all over the capital are gathered, whether they are official or civil, so that if they encounter another sneak attack by the Rangers, they can take care of each other......"

While speaking, several people had already entered the inner hall, and in addition to the two main seats of the host and guest, the chairs on the other sides were full of people. At a glance, there were old and young, but in Shen Hao's eyes, he hardly found a familiar face, nor did he find a master with slightly better strength.

Shen Hao sighed secretly, and under the guidance of Ling Jiancheng, he walked to the main seat and sat down, and all the people below focused their eyes on the two of them, with frustration, fear, hesitation, and a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

"Senior Shen, I'm ashamed, in fact, I invite you to come over this time, we are cheeky and want to seek protection from your old man......" After a few words of greeting, Ling Jiancheng couldn't wait to change his words and say his intentions straight to the point. He had already sent a request for help to the main hall, and Hall Master Mo was now actively integrating forces, but it was not possible to support the capital in a day or two.

He had already learned from his own channels that Shen Hao had broken through the barrier of the king level and entered the legendary supreme realm, and at this moment, he could only survive this most difficult time by temporarily sheltering him.

Shen Hao picked up the tea bowl in front of him, gently blew open the tea powder, took a sip, and then slowly said in everyone's expectant eyes: "Don't worry, in fact, this time I returned to China to completely eliminate these few Demon Kings who brought havoc to our Shenzhou." Moreover, I already know how to deal with them, and if I succeed in the battle, I may be able to free everyone from the threat of the Nightmare from now on. ”

"Really? Did I hear ...... wrong?"

"Senior Shen is saying that let's get rid of the threat of nightmare from now on, not that we only need to solve the ...... of these few nightmare demons that have appeared recently."

"Can this really be the case? Doesn't it mean that the demon has been hunting us humans for thousands of years from ancient times to the present, and it can really prevent future troubles forever? ”

"Are you suspicious of Senior Shen......

Shen Hao's words immediately caused a big commotion, and the people under the seat turned their heads and ears one after another. They knew Shen Hao, although they hadn't seen his strength with their own eyes, they had all heard the legend of the 'King of Force' from their respective elder divisions.

And recently, Ling Tianwang of the True Martial Hall revealed that this senior, who had lived for nearly two hundred years, had broken through to the Supreme Realm, that is to say, in his hands, those high-level nightmares that made them frightened were some fleas, as long as Shen Hao was willing, he could pinch them to death.

Although it is a bit unbelievable to say that the threat of the demon has been completely removed, it may really come true if it comes from the mouth of the legendary supreme powerhouse.

"Is that true?" Ling Jiancheng on the side was also excited, and he couldn't help but ask the questions in everyone's hearts.

"It's not a small grasp." Shen Hao smiled and didn't say the truth that he was only fifty percent sure of. Because he knows that what these people in front of him need at this moment is hope, and human beings, if they want to continue to survive, the most indispensable thing is also hope.

"However, I still lack some strength alone, I have to make some preparations......" Putting down the tea bowl, Shen Hao was still smiling, but the words in his mouth were changing, "Take a break, I have to rush to your main hall, please help me inform the master of the Mo hall......"
