Chapter 186 The Mentors’ Malice



Old man Zhongli has been guarding here all year round. This Huacheng is one of the garrison points of the Hua Kingdom. People greeted him all the way.

The old man lived with Zhongli Changqing. When Gao Han arrived at the destination, he found that it was actually very simple.

Knowing that the father and son must have something intimate to say, Gao Han was thinking about how to get out of this situation.

"What's wrong with your eyes? When did they start to turn red?" The old man asked the same opening question as the head of the Zhongli family as soon as he entered the door, and he didn't even care about Gao Han's presence.

Zhongli Tingzhou did not take off his hat, but his eyes underneath were redder than before.

Gao Han had actually discovered before that Zhongli in white and Zhongli in black both had red eyes, but the time when the color of their eyes darkened was different.

The process of Zhongli in black's eyes turning red, until they couldn't be any redder, was quite long.

As for Zhongli in white, he had become very famous in just a few days, which was less than half the time of Zhongli in black.

"It's nothing. If it turns red, I can't control it." Zhongli Tingzhou said coldly.

The old man sighed and said, "Well, I won't ask that."

"Grandpa, what's wrong with my uncle's eyes?" asked Zhongli Changqing, confused.

"None of your business." The old man waved his hand impatiently.

Zhongli Changqing was choked. "I am my uncle's nephew. How come I have nothing to do with him?"

The old man glared at him and said, "I'm still your uncle's father. Where's your grandfather?"

Zhongli Changqing couldn't argue with him, so he turned to Gao Han and said, "Aunt, I'm Zhongli Changqing, and my father is the head of the Zhongli family. You can call me Changqing."

Gao Han had a complicated expression, "...No need to call me aunt."

"It's okay. It's my duty." Zhongli Changqing waved his hand.

Gao Han changed her words, "Don't call me aunt, we are about the same age, just call me Gao Han."

Zhongli Changqing refused without hesitation, "No, it's rude to call me by my name. If I really dare to do that, my whole family will beat me up."

Gao Han glanced at the old man.

The old man nodded seriously, "We don't allow confusion of generations in our family."

Gao Han was seriously skeptical. He remembered that someone from the Zhongli family seemed to have said that the Zhongli family didn't care about the issue of seniority, and that the elders seemed unreliable. "Then just call me Brother Gao."

"Oh." Zhongli Changqing had an unwilling face.

Zhongli Tingzhou took Gao Han's hand and said to his father and nephew, "If there is nothing else, we will leave first."

"Yes!" they said in unison.

The old man said hurriedly, "I have an empty room here, you can stay here. The rooms arranged by Penglai are all crowded with several people, but here it's no problem for each of you to have a room."

"Yes, yes, grandpa is right. It's quiet here. Why don't my uncle and Brother Gao live here? You two can live in one room." Zhongli Changqing also nodded.

Zhongli Tingzhou, who was about to refuse, suddenly paused.

The old man and Zhongli Changqing caught this detail and their eyes lit up. When they were about to make further efforts, Gao Han flatly refused and the two of them looked at him instantly.

Gao Han withstood the pressure of the two people's gazes and remained calm, "We can just live with everyone else. Thank you for your kindness, old man."

Zhongli Tingzhou's brows twitched slightly.

Gao Han saw it and said, "If you want to stay, that's fine. I'll go live with everyone else, you can stay here."

"I'll go with you." Zhongli Tingzhou said without hesitation.

"Okay, let's go." Gao Han nodded, and said to the old man and Zhongli Changqing, "We'll leave first and come back next time."

Watching the two people leaving.

Zhongli Changqing immediately said to his grandfather: "Grandpa, I didn't expect that my aunt had such a great influence on my uncle. It seems that we have to change the target of our flattery in the future."

The old man patted his head and said, "I am your uncle's father."

"Will my uncle listen to you?" Zhongli Changqing asked back.

The old man was suddenly upset. After two seconds, he straightened his back and said, "See if there is anything you need and send it to your aunt and uncle."

Noticing that the old man had moved his uncle to the back of the list, Zhongli Changqing immediately smiled, "Got it, Grandpa."

When Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou returned, Long Zhan and Instructor Zhao had already made arrangements for the students and explained everything that needed to be said, and they had already left.

Zhongli Changze was waiting for them outside. When he saw them come back, he immediately trotted over to them.

"Brother Gao, uncle, your room is over here."

The school arranged rooms for them with eight people in each room, and there were no beds in the rooms, so they could only sleep on the floor. Students could arrange for themselves who they wanted to room with.

Zhongli Changze did not hesitate to pull himself and them into a room and also brought Su Zhouhe along.

When they arrived, it was already getting late. The main disaster area is always dark. Before the normal sunset time, the forest is pitch black, and Tucheng cannot light too many lights at night.

Because there are too many lights, it is easy to attract mutant birds and beasts nearby in the dark.

Gao Han entered the room and the others had already started to rest.

On the first night, everyone was more curious. As soon as night fell, the room was filled with the sound of several students whispering. The sounds gradually disappeared until they became sleepy.

The next morning, before dawn, everyone was awakened by the sound of people getting ready outside without the need for the instructors to call them.

When I looked at the time, it was not that it was still dark, but that the sunrise and sunset were not obvious in the main disaster area.

At daybreak, the main disaster area is still in darkness. It is not until the sun is at its highest point in the sky that the light becomes brighter, like daytime.

The crowd walked out one after another and saw that almost everyone in Huacheng had already gotten up. They were the last ones to get up, and finally felt a little embarrassed, so they lined up silently to wash.

A few veterans who were not so busy laughed when they saw this scene.

"I was like this when I first came here. I was so nervous that I couldn't tell which way was which."

"That's right, they are not very strong yet, and they still need to gain experience."

"When the mutants attack the city, there won't be time for you to do anything else."

When Long Zhan came over, there were still people by the pool, scolding: "Okay, why are you still washing? You are not ordinary people, can't you even endure for a few days? Then why are you going to the battlefield?"

Of course, those who habitually washed up were those who were slightly weaker, like Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou, who had already come out and were standing under the city wall, listening to Zhongli Tingzhou talk about the situation here.

"Gao Han? You are finally here." A man walked down from the city wall.

Gao Han looked up and saw Sima Ye standing with the light behind him, and Yu Mingyang standing behind him.

"Why are you here too?" He thought Sima Ye went to other disaster areas, but he didn't expect him to come here. No wonder some fourth graders came with the third graders this time, but he was the only one not seen.

Sima Ye pointed at Yu Mingyang beside him and said, "He came here without telling me, and no one else could persuade him to go back, so they had no choice but to let me come."

Yu Mingyang's clothes were clean, but his exposed skin was covered with scars.

"I'll send him back first and talk to you later." Sima Ye said.

"I don't want to go back. I want to kill more mutant creatures." Yu Mingyang retorted.

Sima Ye ignored him and dragged him away reluctantly.

On the other side, Long Zhan and several of his teachers also came with a group of students, preparing to climb the city wall.

Zhongli Tingzhou did not go up. He was not a freshman and did not need to go through it again. He was pulled away by the old man.

The city wall facing the main disaster area is higher, thicker and stronger than the other side. Because mutant creatures often attack the city, the traces left on the city wall are all testimonies of the past.

Gao Han noticed that this city wall was reinforced with the best alloy, layer by layer. It would be extremely expensive to coat the entire wall with the alloy.

But as long as we can resist the mutated creatures, this doesn’t matter.

It is called an earth city, but in fact it can also be called a steel city. A real earth city may not be able to withstand even an attack from mutant creatures. Not long ago, this place had just experienced a large-scale siege.

Afterwards, the mentors organized the students to visit those who were injured in the defense of the city.

There is a place in the city specifically for the injured. Those who are seriously injured or disabled are sent away. A group of people have been sent away before, but there are still many left.

It is conceivable how many people are killed and injured in every war. This is only a small part of them. More people died in the battle to defend the city, and even their bodies could not be found because they were eaten by mutated creatures.

Before I even entered, I could hear wailing and extremely strong negative emotions from inside.

Some students who have never experienced this have already backed off.

Noticing this situation, Long Zhan turned around and faced everyone.

"Why, are you scared already? The cruelty of war is far greater than what you have seen now. If you still have the same carefree attitude as before, you will be the ones lying in the water in the future."

"Now, everyone, cheer up and go in to take a good look at these heroes who have made contributions to mankind."

The mutant creatures' siege hasn't even begun yet, but everyone has already felt the mentors' strong malice.

People with minor injuries would not stay in there at all. Spirit refiners were actually not that fragile, so those lying in there mostly suffered serious, irrecoverable injuries, and broken limbs were the norm.

Gao Han was walking behind and was about to go in when he heard what a few people were saying.

"How about making a bet? Who will be the first one to run out after this bunch of idiots can't stand it?"

"Betting, of course I have to bet."

"I bet the girl with pigtails looked like she was about to cry and she couldn't hold it in for a few seconds."

"No one is betting on that fat pig? Then I'll bet that he'll be the first to lose control."

"I bet on that..."

Gao Han side-glanced at them. They were unfamiliar faces. It would have been fine if it was just a little joke, but their faces didn't just show that they were enjoying the show, they also had strong malice on them.

One of them noticed his gaze and cursed, "What are you looking at? I'm talking about you bunch of idiots."
