Chapter 311 - There is Something to this Task (2/2)

After they got on the bus, Wu Ji noticed Meng Fan’s hand. He frowned and asked, “Is all the blood from others?”

Meng Fan looked at Wu Ji sideways and at his own hands. He wanted to cry!

During the group fight and all the throw-downs, Meng Fan had to use his fists somewhat. He was strong, and his bones were tough as well, but his hands were still soft. Unlike most fighters, whose hands were toughened from years of fighting, his weren’t. Furthermore, his targets were also thick-skinned. Meng Fan’s hands were really busted after all the fighting.

It’s like using hands used to drawing on a punching bag without any protection. After the fighting, Meng Fan’s hands ended up this way.

Seeing Meng Fan’s expression, Wu Ji laughed out loud. He stopped when Meng Fan glared at him.

Meng Fan, “What did I do?”

Wu Ji hurriedly asked a teammate to treat and bandage Meng Fan’s hand. He also asked, “Where are you staying? In our hotel?”

Meng Fan firmly shook his head. “No way. You guys will be busy tonight, I better not make more work for you. Don’t worry, I’m at the Aman Kyoto. It’ll be safer than your hotel.”

“Aman? You really are rich.”

Wu Ji didn’t comment further.

Meng Fan thought and said, “I’m going back tomorrow. Would the fight bring any trouble?”

Smiling, Wu Ji shook his head. “This time, the matter is quite serious, so there will be a lot of punishment for discipline. But it has nothing to do with you. You aren’t in this circle, so any discipline doesn’t matter. Plus, you were hit first. The host wouldn’t make it a legal matter though. Even if it was, they’d make it go away.”

Meng Fan couldn’t help asking after hearing about the discipline. “How serious is the discipline?”

Wu Ji shrugged. “Probably being banned or suspended from games or fined, but it may be severe.”

Meng Fan asked like the outsider he was, “Maybe it’s good being banned or suspended. The fighting is too brutal.”

Now, it was Wu Ji who looked at Meng Fan sideways, “Hah, how dare you say that? Was anyone more brutal than you?”

Meng Fan disagreed. “Bastard, how could you say that? I didn’t even fight back when I was kicked. I was protecting you the whole time! I was worried you’d be hurt. And you say I’m brutal?”

Wu Ji laughed. “For Tongtong, that’s who! You didn’t want her to be mad if something happened to me.”

Meng Fan stuck out his middle finger at him. “You’re lucky your sister is so awesome.”

“Right, right, I should feel lucky my brother-in-law is awesome, right? I better thank him!” Wu Ji pretended to look around. “Where is he?”

Meng Fan smiled brilliantly. “Seventh Bro, I’m right here!”

The teammates on the bus weren’t aware of the two men’s connection before. After hearing their conversation, they understood. This set of brothers-in-law was quite a pair: they were both brutal and shameless.

The bus took Meng Fan to the Aman Kyoto hotel in Chiyoda City before going to the team’s hotel. After Meng Fan got off the bus, the teammates — who were excited about winning the group fight and advancing as a team — became nervous. Just like Wu Ji said, the consequences for the fight would be serious and carry severe discipline.

It didn’t matter who started the fight. Even if the host confirmed the Japanese team started the fight, anyone involved in the fight would be disciplined.

When Meng Fan returned to the hotel, the first thing he did was strip and look in the mirror. After seeing the bruises from being kicked or hit and realizing nothing was too serious, Meng Fan relaxed. Then, he crawled into the jacuzzi and soaked with his hands in the air.

His hands were so broken up, he couldn’t even take a shower. He could only soak for a while.

Right!

He just remembered how he triggered a task in the melee. He checked, and it was a task. But the title of the task was… either amazing or f*cked up. He had to describe it as “there’s something to it.”

“Ding! You have triggered the task [Thousand-People Slayer].”

This task requires you to defeat 1,000 fighters.”

“Upon completion, you will receive the title [Thousand-People Slayer] (Killing Power +3, Breeding Power +1).”

1

The task had three Phases: ten people would get him +100, a hundred would get him +1,000, and a thousand would get him +10,000. Plus, an extra award of Killing Power +1.

He had already finished Task Phase 1 and received its award. He’d defeated forty people so far.

“I’ve already defeated fighters like Lao Hei before, why didn’t I trigger this task then?”

“Why would defeating fighters mean a reward of Breeding Power?”
