Makino was very uneasy.

Although our organization is of a decent size, whether it will succeed is another matter.

What if they just don't like it?

What if you happen to see someone using an axe and don't like it?

"Do you Axe Gang members all like using axes?" Zhang Hao asked with interest.

"Yeah, the axe is easier to use, and it looks cool."

"Right, I think so too. I agree to your joining."

Zhang Hao smiled slightly.

Whoever they are, just bring them in first.

Anyway, Hu Xiaonan can do divination, so whether there is any danger or not can be known by flipping a coin. There is no need to worry about anything.

"Uh, don't we need any kind of pledge of allegiance or anything? Isn't that too casual?" Makino was stunned.

"That's exactly what we want—to be so casual. Everyone who's willing to join the Dawn Society is one of our own. Judging from your expression... have you prepared something?" Zhang Hao asked curiously.

"Yes, Chairman."

Makino stated bluntly, "That group, led by the Brotherhood, is trying to blackmail you! I'm here to expose these idiots, including Shachigo, hoping they'll face the organization's righteous punishment!"

"Sachigo? It's him again?"

Zhang Hao said indifferently, "I didn't even bother to make a fuss about his escape last time, but he's courting death again? Then I'll grant his wish this time and send him and his brother Sachima to reunite in hell."

"Two brothers, of course they'd rather die together."

Shachigo had made some disrespectful remarks last time.

But after being betrayed by his brother, he couldn't be bothered to hold the fraternity's mistakes against him.

But this guy still won't give up?

Then let's just kill them all.

A bunch of worthless scoundrels, incompetent yet trying to cause trouble—aren't they courting death?

Want us to come and fix it right now?

Wouldn't that be like using a cannon to kill a fly?

Wait for them to come to us, then catch them all in one fell swoop.

Of course, we can't kill them all, since there are too few Awakened Ones, and too many deaths would be a loss for humanity.

Those who are pragmatic will be recruited, which will allow the Dawn Society to expand.

An hour passed.

Zhang Hao cleared the zombies from the main road.

After collecting the crystal cores and nearby supplies, they saw Shachigo arrive with his men.

There are quite a few.

There were nearly a thousand people.

There are a total of fifteen organizations, ranging in size from about fifty people to a maximum of one hundred people.

Shachigo of the Brotherhood stood at the front, smiling as he said, "Chairman Zhang, it's been a long time. Only three days... You've really changed your tune. The Dawn Society is growing stronger and stronger."

"..."

Zhang Hao couldn't be bothered to waste his breath on this clown.

Fang Ping stepped forward and shouted, "Spit it out if you have something to say, stop wasting everyone's time."

“Fine, then I’ll be blunt. You entered our North Fourth Ring Road without paying tolls, and then you slaughtered zombies on our territory. These zombies belong to us… and you dared to lay a finger on them,” Shachigo declared righteously.

"The zombies are yours? You're hilarious. Why don't you kill them?" Fang Ping mocked.

"This has nothing to do with your Dawn Society. We don't want to have too much of a conflict with you. After all, you all worked hard to kill the zombies, so we have no reason to take the crystal cores."

Shachigo said patiently, "I've thought of a compromise. How about we each take a step back? You give us some supplies, and we won't stop you from continuing to kill zombies. Consider this your compensation for staying in the North Fourth Ring Road. What do you think?"

"How much supplies do you need?" Fang Ping asked.

"Not much, just a thousand tons of supplies for each organization would be fine, preferably food, and the kind with a long shelf life. We don't need anything else..."

He wasn't finished yet.

Zhang Hao grew impatient: "Enough with the nonsense, just kill him."

At a command.

Just as Fang Ping was about to take action.

Sudden.

With a hissing sound!

A masked woman emerged from a puddle on the ground.

Holding a dagger, he attacked Fang Ping, the blade aimed directly at his throat.

"You coward, we've already spotted you!"

But Fang Ping wasn't someone you could just easily manipulate; he could crush someone with a single hand.

He grabbed the other person's wrist.

The immense force snapped the opponent's wrist.

"Damn it, the employer gave us the wrong information, we need to pay three times the amount in compensation, and the target's strength was misjudged. We need to retreat for now!"

The masked woman let out a muffled groan.

If the first attack fails, it must dive into the water and leave.

However, the next second...

Her body stiffened.

Honglian, standing to the side, twitched her index finger slightly.

They controlled the blood from the other person's body to forcibly imprison the masked woman.

"Go to hell!"

Just as Honglian was about to make her move.

Zhang Hao stopped him: "Wait, just control her."

"oh oh."

Honglian nodded obediently.

The masked woman stared at her, inwardly horrified: "Level four? A level four Awakened? Why didn't we detect this information? Was this mission a trap? That bastard Shachigo, he deliberately tricked our Shadow Alliance?"

"Employer? Who commissioned you?" Zhang Hao asked.

"Not betraying our employer is our professional ethics."

"Alright, tell me who your employer is, and I'll spare your life."

"I'm a member of the Shadow Alliance, you can't..."

He wasn't finished yet.

Zhang Hao coldly interrupted: "I don't care whose side you're on. So what if it's the Shadow Alliance? So what if it's the Skywalker Society? My Dawn Society has never been afraid. You really think you can assassinate my people without paying any price?"

"If you don't tell me who your employer is, you're dead now."

"It's Shachigo."

The masked woman backed down.

She wasn't actually afraid of dying; she was just tricked this time.

The mission information clearly stated that Fang Ping was only a regular level three, but the other party broke her wrist in one move.

This is what you call a normal Level 3?

Are you kidding me?

Moreover, she didn't even have time to evacuate.

He was forcibly controlled in place by an outrageous Level 4 Awakener.

Is this what Shachigo meant by the organization's average strength?

Generally, it's your mom.

If this weren't a public place, she would have already started cursing.

"It really was him. What did he hire you for?" Zhang Hao wasn't surprised.

"Kill Fang Ping to make you wary of their strength, then sue for peace and give them supplies," the woman explained.

"Why not just kill me?"

"He wouldn't dare."

Now I have a clear idea of ​​what's going on.

This guy was trying to extort supplies.

However, lacking sufficient strength, he spent money to hire members of the Shadow Alliance, hoping to kill his trusted confidant Fang Ping and make Zhang Hao wary.

As a result, their attempt to steal a chicken backfired and they lost more than they gained.

With the Shadow Alliance members captured alive, Shachigo and his group are also in trouble.

In the crowd.

Shachigo was embarrassed: "Would you believe me if I said it was a misunderstanding?"
