Chapter 176 - Cleaning Mission, Being Looked Down by Mercenaries

There were many types of city cleaning missions. One was that the city had already fallen. For example, the S-rank mission that Lin Tian had received to clear out the invading magical beasts from Immortal Forest. The city had already fallen and was very dangerous, only after accepting the mission could they clear out the city.

There was another type of mission, the city did not fall, but the surroundings had already started to become chaotic. As for whether it was the beast tides or the strange movements in the magical zone, there was no definite answer for the time being. They would only be able to clear the magical zone after they reached the city and went to the mission point to accept the mission. For example, the North City was the same. There were strange movements in the magical zone, but there were not too many beast tides, so they only needed to clear the magical zone.

After Lin Tian and the rest arrived at the Armored Envoy Association, they registered their personal information and accepted the mission. The missions in Harbor City were clearly much more than when they were in the university. There were all kinds of missions, cleaning missions and intelligence mission were both available. Lin Tian glanced at the highest reward, which was the mission to clear the sea defense line.

Although the other mission rewards were okay, they were far from being as good as the mission to clear the sea defense line. Of course, the difficulty also increased exponentially.

“There shouldn’t be any sirens here, right? Even if there are, I can just run away when the time comes!”

Lin Tian didn’t intend to do the cleaning mission at first. After all, if he wanted to do it, he would have already accepted it in school. However, he didn’t expect that he wouldn’t be able to escape the cleaning mission of the sea defense line in the end. But on second thought, there was still a long distance from the Hex City Base. The sirens shouldn’t appear here.

Moreover, he hadn’t seen any sirens in Immortal Forest City before. There were only the mermen. This proved that the magical beasts of the Sea Monster Empire weren’t distributed in all the sea areas, the reason why Lin Tian did not want to take on the mission of cleaning up the sea defense line was because he was worried that he would be assigned to the place where the sirens were.

“We will take on the mission of cleaning up the sea defense line. After we complete it, we will be able to gain a lot of academic points!” Lin Tian said. In the end, he still chose to take on the mission of cleaning up the sea defense line. Bi Linyu and the others were more worried about Lin Tian’s curse. After all, they did not have a curse, so they were not worried. However, there was determination in Lin Tian’s eyes, they couldn’t say too much.

“These students dare to come to Harbor City to accept missions? They don’t know what’s going on!”

“What’s wrong with these kids? They’re only teenagers, yet they still accept missions. They’re really not afraid of death!”

“Do they think they’re so great because they’re from the Hex City University?”

“I’m afraid they haven’t even seen blood. Don’t they know how dangerous the sea is?”

When Lin Tian and the rest took over the cleaning mission, they were thinking about the details of the mission when another group of people entered. This group of people didn’t seem to be from the Armored Envoy Association, but a group of mercenaries. There were even some people from the military districts. When they saw Lin Tian, they couldn’t help but mock him loudly.

People like them had seen too many fearless students come to Harbor City to take on missions. The students all thought that the missions in Harbor City were easy to do, but they didn’t know that the ones who died the most every year were the students. They were annoyed by the students just by looking at them, they felt that it was a burden.

Yet, they accepted the cleaning mission, which was the most dangerous mission. This time, the cleaning mission was sent out by several associations, mercenary groups, and military districts. There were almost several thousand people in total, and most of them were mercenaries, soldiers and members of the association who had been struggling in society for many years.

In addition, the sea defense line had become more and more chaotic in recent years. They danced on the tip of their knives every day. The intense battlefield and the increasing number of deaths caused their tempers to flare up. They had gathered this time because they were also members of the cleaning mission. They had originally thought that there would be many experts from other cities. However, there were only a bunch of students.

After hearing their words, Lin Tian frowned slightly. Although he did not deny that the students were inexperienced, their words were still too harsh. After all, they had gone through life and death in many magical zones, and had also experienced life and death, killing a group of people in one shot was completely unnecessary.

“Who do you think you are? What right do you have to question?”

At this moment, Zhang Wei walked out. His body was filled with a thick murderous aura. At the same time, his eyes slowly turned red. The thing that he disliked the most was people questioning him. However, when Zhang Wei scolded them, these old mercenaries became even more arrogant.

“I have been here for more than half a year. Do I have the right to criticize you now?”

One of the old mercenaries said coldly. One of his eyes was already blind, and there was a very deep scar. However, he didn’t think much of it. He even felt that this was his mark of honor. Although he was a mercenary who tried to earn money, this scar was proof that he was risking his life at the sea defense line.

He still had many injuries on his body. These were all his medals. It was true that he was doing it for the money, but it didn’t affect him at all.

“I’ve stayed much longer than you. Who do you think you are?”
