Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

Master Mao and Priest Yang could not believe their ears as they stared dumbfoundedly at this highly delusional and narcissistic man.

“Is this apostle a nutcase? Can he just go and take a look at the god d*mn mirror! Which part of him even resembles Daniel Wu? I will be Louis Koo or Nick Cheung f he is Daniel Wu!”

Zhao Yao’s absurd claims had somehow fanned the flaming anger in the two of them as their body locked with fury.

Sonia, who stood beside him during his introduction, took a few steps backward when she heard those preposterous words. She just wanted to cut off any links that could possibly connect her with him.

However, she felt a strong arm grabbed onto her wrist the moment she took her first step. This armed belong to none other than Zhao Yao. He started laughing and continued, “It is all thanks to this lady for bringing me here! If not for her, I would not have had this opportunity to meet all you heroes.”

An awkward smile found its way up Sonia’s face as she replied, “Actually, we are not that close.”

Master Mao had no intentions to allow Zhao Yao to continue his stupid antics. It would simply taint the sanctity of this very meeting if he condoned this ludicrous behavior.

Master Mao distracted the crowd with a timely cough before announcing, “We will continue to rot if we stay here with our arms folded. However, it is not a wise move to charge into the place without a proper plan.”

Immediately, one person jumped to his feet and asked, “Master Mao, what do you suggest?”

“Based on my thirty years of experience ruling this savage world …”

Just when the atmosphere was about to reach the climax, beams of excitement shot out of Zhao Yao’s eyes as he exclaimed, “Is everyone intending to destroy the fraud organization in Chuan Xiao District?”

Only one thing could get Zhao Yao so excited. Tens of apostles and cats stood in front of him with his favorite golden exclamation mark floating above their heads. This was as good as striking lottery!

This meant that everyone needed help with something related to supercats. What kind of mission could possibly await Zhao Yao? Obviously, it was to destroy those scammers.

Based on the experience point gathered from the annihilation of Muscle Society, Zhao Yao extrapolated those data and multiplied it by the people surrounding him. Endless streams of points awaited him to harvest.

One of the apostles stood up with his brows tightly knitted together as he roared, “You don’t say? Do you think all of us came here for a holiday? Obviously, all of us are gathered here to take down those crooks!”

Sonia knew that things were about to go south as she flusteredly tugged on the corner of his shirt, urging him to keep his mouth shut.

“There is only one thing which I, Daniel Wu, absolutely abhor in this world and that is unreasonable people wreaking havoc in ordinary people’s lives.” Zhao Yao’s temple throbbed with rage as he continued, “I cannot walk away from this mission! I will take them down!”

Everyone’s jaw dropped to the ground when they heard Zhao Yao’s words. What was wrong with this lunatic? Furthermore, Zhao Yao just introduced himself as Adrian moments ago. Now, he had turned into Daniel Wu in a matter of seconds.

Mission: Annihilate the fraud organization

Objective: Destroy the vast network in the organization and capture the leader amongst them

Reward: 500 experience points and a bag of royal catmint

Punishment: Nil

“Royal catmint?” Zhao Yao’s right eyebrow shot upwards the moment he noticed it. This was the first time a physical reward was up for grabs. Just the name itself made it sound like something special. Furthermore, the 500 experience points paled in comparison relative to the experience earned from taking down Muscle Society. Evidently, this royal catmint was something very unique.

Zhao Yao muttered, “I didn’t expect to find catmint in this part of the world. I guess it’s harvest time.”

Meanwhile, Master Mao was perplexed by Zhao Yao’s sudden change in behavior as he acted all righteous and ethical. However, he shook these distracting thoughts out of his head before continuing, “This place is flooded with people, evil people with evil plans. Even though it is imperative that we enter, but we must go in prepared. We might not know their power but we should at least understand the geographical terrain, number of people, etc.”

“I’ll go!” Zhao Yao jumped to his feet, “I hate them and cannot stand the fact that they are continuing their atrocities! Let me do it!”

Master Mao and Priest Yang slid each other a doubtful glance. Maybe they were wrong about this man. Maybe, he wasn’t a nutcase but the righteous hero they had been waiting for.

At this moment, Priest Yang stepped forward and offered some words of caution, “My brother, Chuan Xiao District has been completely corroded by these vile people. Based on our intel, everyone there is a scammer, with no morals. This reconnaissance job will be tough and dangerous …”

“I’m not afraid of death! Who has managed to escape the fate of death in history? I am honored to have this opportunity to die in the name of justice!”

The surrounding apostles never expected these words to come out of Zhao Yao’s mouth, but they also admired him for his strong character.

“I never knew that Daniel Wu was such a person.”

“I’m so ashamed to think that he was a lunatic at the beginning.”

Roly Poly, who was resting in the cat bag, could hear the chatters amongst the crowd and rolled his eyes in response, “This bunch of fools. All of you have been blinded by the devil. This man is far more dangerous than your stupid fraud organization.”

His uncompromising determination to uphold justice caught Master Mao and Priest Yang by surprise. They could not imagine such a righteous man to exist in this world.

However, Master Mao shook his head d and said, “Brother, I appreciate your effort but the job of reconnaissance requires someone with superb hiding and infiltration skills …”

Zhao Yao answered immediately, “I can try to be less handsome and pretend to be an ordinary man.”

Those words caused Master Mao to quiver with anger. This son of a bitch was the quintessential ordinary man!

However, it seemed impossible to turn down his offer, especially after witnessing his termination. Finally, Master Mao relented and said, “Alright, we will have two groups of people infiltrating the place. The firsts group will go in openly while the second group will sneak in. Brother, you will belong to the first group.”

Mission: Collect intel

Objective: Collect information about Chuan Xiao District

Reward: The reward was dependent on the quantity and quality of intel collected. The experience point ranged from 10 to 1000 points.

Punishment: Nil

Joy bubbled up in Zhao Yao when he noticed another mission appearing in his BOOK. He thought, “Alright, I will simply find out every single thing about these people before I destroy them!”

While Master Mao and Priest Yang were busy selecting their finest men for the mission, Zhao Yao was already distracted by the remaining exclamation marks.

Firstly, he walked towards Sonia with a giant grin, “Young lady, you seem rather unhappy. Is something bothering you? Is there anything I can do to alleviate your worries?”

Sonia thought that he was a righteous and virtuous man after hearing his proclamations and had a change of opinion of him. She decided to tell him the truth, “Actually, my reason for coming here is to save my sister from those crooks …”

In a blink of an eye, Zhao Yao had earned another mission with a few simple words. The grin stretched further as he tapped on her shoulders and said, “If your sister is inside, I can simply bring her along when I’m making my way out and bring her to you.”

However, the exclamation mark remained in that exact spot, causing Zhao Yao’s heart to pound with excitement as he asked, “Is there someone else caught in that place? Do not be shy, just tell me. I guarantee you that I will bring them back in one piece.”

Sonia’s face collapsed with despair. She was right. This man was crazy.
