With a strong tug!
In the next moment, an even stronger force stopped the Gray Werewolf’s momentum and dragged it back to Zhou Jing.
Before it could land on the ground, Zhou Jing let go of the chain. He held the saber with both hands and slashed directly at it.
A cold saber light flashed, cutting through the Gray Werewolf’s vision.
Its neck passed through the horizontal incoming blade.
Splat!
A huge wolf head spun and soared into the sky, and the blood shot up four to five meters into the air.
The headless corpse passed by Zhou Jing and staggered a few steps forward before falling to the ground behind him.
“Huuuuu….”
Zhou Jing exhaled the breath he had been holding in his body. He casually shook off the coagulating blood on the blade before sheathing it.
In front of Jason’s current physique, a medium-risk beast was like a quail. He did not even need to pull out all his cards and could kill it head-on.
Clap, clap, clap—applause came in waves from the stands.
Keriber looked impressed. “Good fight.”
The battle was very short, almost instantaneous. He could see Zhou Jing’s suppression of it. It was smooth and easy for him.
It looked easy, but only by crushing a Gray Werewolf in all aspects with strength and speed, as well as understanding the habits of the opponents, could one easily and quickly kill such a medium-risk beast.
Keriber had always loved capable hunters.
He jumped down from the stands and came in front of Zhou Jing. He raised his head and said, “From now on, you are a glorious Imperial Hunter.”
“Don’t I need to take an oath or apply for an identification…”?Zhou Jing wanted to scratch his head.
The Mutant World was more sloppy than the main world in this aspect.
At this moment, a new message popped up on the interface.
[Triggered achievement [Imperial Hunter]!]
[You have received 500 Astral Points!]
[Specific conditions have been met… Do you want to add a new [Life Objective] to the current Apostle?]
[Current Life Objectives: [Empty Slot] x3]
[Loadable Objectives: [Empire’s Chief Hunter], [Hunter Master], [Surpassing the Epics] ]
“Huh? A new Life Objective?”?Zhou Jing paused.
He thought that after completing an apostle’s life objective, this would be over.
It seemed that his guess was wrong. Life Objectives were renewable and could be replaced or added in some way. It was probably something like a career mission or career achievement.
And the initial number of Life Objectives the Astral Apostle had meant how many empty slots there would be after they were completed.
Zhou Jing quickly began to analyze.
One of the so-called “certain conditions” should be to participate in special events or join certain factions.
In this case, the situation was more favorable than he had expected. The Eternal Apostle still had this stable method to obtain Information State without a need to cause trouble everywhere.
Unlike creating a new apostle, the [Life Objective] that was automatically triggered was no longer mandatory. It could be discovered on its own, and it would be more flexible in choosing whether he wished to take up the objective… This was like how a normal person would establish a new goal after completing one.
Moreover, Zhou Jing discovered that the [Life Objective] he had discovered seemed to be similar to the Apostle’s original [Life Objectives]. Perhaps only a larger goal in a similar direction could be triggered.
That meant that a person who was determined to study medicine would not easily have a life objective like “becoming a literary master” unless encountered a special reason.
“If not only Eternal Apostles, but even those who have yet to clear the level can automatically trigger a new life objective, then this might be a long-term way to obtain a clear route to clearing the level for all future apostles. Completing one mission after another is more purposeful and stable than doing something illusory, but the prerequisite is that it can be triggered.”
Zhou Jing thought to himself and was extremely excited about this new prospect.
At this moment, the three targets that could be loaded were all based on his Mutant Beast Hunter route.
As the name suggested, the [Empire’s Chief Hunter] had to be conferred by the Empire. As for the [Hunter Master], he probably had to master a large number of hunter breathing techniques and combat techniques. He had to accumulate 100 mutant beast kills and become the publicly recognized “Master” of the hunters. The [Surpassing the Epics] stated that to perform more enhancements than the historical record of Raven, which was eight times.
Jason·Wood was currently a salted fish without a goal. Zhou Jing felt that these three goals were similar to his plan, so he did not hesitate and directly chose to load them all.
[Jason·Wood’s life objectives have been changed.]
[Current Life Objectives: [Empire’s Chief Hunter], [Hunter Master], [Surpassing the Epics]]
“I feel like my life has suddenly gained some meaning…”?Looking at his three new goals, Zhou Jing felt inexplicably motivated.
While he operated the panel, Keriber did not stop speaking.
“…As for your friend Rosen, I’ve learned about his situation. I can make an exception. There’s no need for a hunting test,” Keriber was explaining. “If you can successfully enhance three times, you’ll be the backbone of the Empire’s Hunters. You’ll then be qualified to lead a small team and recruit Rosen into your team.”
“Okay.” Zhou Jing came back to his senses.
Keriber nodded and raised his hand high, patting Zhou Jing on the shoulder. He encouraged him with the expectations of a leader for a potential employee.
“I have high hopes for you. You can look for me to chat when you have time.”
With that, he did not stay there any longer. After bidding farewell to the two of them, he leaped out of the entire arena, not even bothering to take the entrance out of place.
Zhou Jing watched as Keriber jumped out of the Bestial Battle Arena. Then, he turned to look at Cole. “He’s quite a good person.”
“Of course. Commander Keriber is like the big brother of our Imperial Hunters. He remembers the names of every hunter and apprentice.” Cole shrugged.
While the two of them were chatting, the medical team from the Bestial Battle Arena had already entered the arena to see if the Gray Werewolf could still be saved.
After discovering that it was completely dead, the medical team immediately became an autopsy team. They gathered materials on the spot and squeezed the value of it.
Zhou Jing and Cole did not stay long. After bidding farewell to the person in charge of the Bestial Battle Arena, they set off.
Not long after, the two of them returned to the Imperial Hunter Base. Zhou Jing did not delay and went straight to the workshop.
Upon hearing that he had officially become an Imperial Hunter, the workshop opened its service and brought him to the warehouse to display the stock of the blood potions.
“This is our current stock. Take a look and see what you want.”
Zhou Jing took the list from the workshop staff, and upon gazing at it, his eyes widened.
The dense content filled the list.
“There actually is so much stock?!
“With so many hunters here, it should not be the case!”
Seeing Zhou Jing’s surprise, the workshop staff resigned himself to explain.
“This workshop is directly under the Empire. Unlike other towns, our production capacity is far greater than our consumption. We have sufficient mutant beast materials and rarely stop production. Moreover, when developing a new formula, we will create a large number of excess potions as well.
Every year, only when we nurture apprentices will we use a large number of blood potions. However, very few hunters want to break through to a higher level of enhancement. Therefore, there will always be more and more storage units, and all kinds of blood potions will accumulate dust…”
Zhou Jing’s eyes lit up as he looked at the list of high-quality potions. Usually, those would have long been reserved by others were he in other towns, but here, no one even bothered to reserve, as there were simply too many of them.
He had indeed chosen correctly to come to the capital!
