Chapter 1080: A choice
Jonina had learned how to speak some local language. She gave him a big thumbs up, full of admiration.
The gray-haired man was very envious. He thought that it would be great if he had such a powerful skill and strength. That way, he could also become a Ranger.
In this universe, there were many teams, and there was also a game where one would always be alone. That was the dream of many powerhouses.
It was just that the conditions to become a Ranger were very harsh. The test of strength was already difficult for countless people.
The gray-haired man could only be envious. He thought that if he wanted to become a game, he had to become as strong as Zhou Hao.
However, he had already witnessed Zhou Hao’s power from the beginning, and now he felt that he could only watch from the back.
“Bring the corpses of the mutated giant apes with you. I’ll tell you how to improve your bloodline when we get back!”
When Zhou Hao said this, Jonina and the gray-haired man’s eyes lit up.
They had long known that this boss would teach, but they didn’t expect it to be brought forward.
“Yes, boss!”
Not long after they left with the corpse.
From the forest, more than a dozen people came out. They were all wearing the same silver uniform. If Zhou Hao was here, he would definitely recognize these people.
The leader, a middle-aged man with a square face, looked at the broken corpse of the mutated giant ape with pity.
“What a pity. Without a complete corpse, the value of this item is much lower!”
The square-faced middle-aged man said to his assistant.
“Go and collect all the blood for me. Also, send someone out to find another team. Whether they are alive or dead, we must find them. We will return in a month!”
“Captain,” the Deputy immediately said,”I’ll bring some people over to look for it. I’ll definitely find it for you!”
With that, the Deputy left with his underlings.
Zhou Hao did not know what happened after that. He asked the gray-haired man to bring the mutated giant ape’s corpse back to their residence.
Zhou Hao also made a few wooden barrels and gave an order,””In the following period of time, after your training, use the blood of the mutated giant ape for your training. I will help you dilute it once. After that, without my permission, you must not withdraw halfway!”
The gray-haired man said excitedly,”boss, I’ve followed you for so long just for this moment. I know what to do. I definitely won’t let you down!”
Right now, Jonina was beginning to feel conflicted. She was looking at the mutated giant ape’s blood with great disdain.
The mutated giant ape’s blood was different from human blood. It was like mud and looked very dirty.
“Boss, can I stop training now?”
Jonina couldn’t help but say. Her face was filled with reluctance and regret.
If it was before, Zhou Hao would definitely agree. However, they had already started, and now there was no turning back.
“Jonina, if you still want to continue being a high and mighty Princess, then I think we’ve reached the end of our path. You can go back now!”
Zhou Hao immediately turned hostile. It was fine that Jorina had been willful before. After all, many things were small matters, and there was no need to be so harsh.
However, this was no small matter. It was still the same now. After this, Jonina would not be able to truly grow.
At this time, Jonina had his protection, but once her wings were fully grown, Jonina would always have her own sky.
This was something they should have known when they came out.
“Boss, I just wanted to discuss it with you. I didn’t mean it that way. I want to replace it with the blood of an exotic beast, is that okay? or should I say that I’ll do as you say after it’s diluted!”
Zhou Hao thought that he might have been too harsh. After all, Jonina was still a girl. It would be too much for him to ask her to accept such a thing.
However, when he thought about how he had survived and what he had encountered, Zhou Hao was determined again.
His thoughts must not be wavered. He really did not want to repeat the same mistakes that he had encountered before.
“Jonina, I understand how you feel now, but I hope you can understand me as well. If it wasn’t for the fact that I had no other choice, I wouldn’t have let you do this!”
Zhou Hao could only continue to persuade her.
At this point, it seemed like Jonina still had something to say, so Zhou Hao chose to remain silent.
Now, Zhou Hao knew that it was meaningless to say anything more, so he kept his mouth shut.
“Alright, I’ll try!”
Jonina’s brows furrowed. After a moment of hesitation, she chose to compromise.
The reason why Zhou Hao wasn’t going to spoil Jonina was because he had put in a lot of effort, so that Jonina could truly grow up.
Seeing that he had managed to convince Jonina, Zhou Hao finally felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He felt that it had not been easy for him to be the boss.
For the rest of the day, Jonina resisted, but when she thought about what had happened before, she still chose to enter the wooden tub and soak her body in it.
“Ah!”
When she entered, Jonina’s eyes were wide open. To her horror, she realized that the blood could burn her body, and the pain was unbearable.
Jonina couldn’t help but admire her boss even more. How did he manage to survive?
What Jonina didn’t know was that Zhou Hao had never suffered like this before. He had thought for a long time and couldn’t think of any good ideas, so he came up with this plan.
Of course, Zhou Hao would not tell them that he had not suffered before. Now, he wanted to use this method to let them truly complete a transformation.
“Boss, am I already dead?”
When the gray-haired man entered the bath, he also screamed and fainted several times within an hour.
When he woke up, the gray-haired man felt as if he was being tortured. It was so painful that he wished he was dead.
Zhou Hao felt that it was a little too much, so he told them his thoughts.
“How about this? you guys go hunt those Ultra Beasts first and advance to late-stage C Class. You can start training after you’ve advanced!”
Zhou Hao mulled it over for a while before coming to this decision. He really had no other choice now.
If they hadn’t done so, they would probably have died.
“Boss, I can hold on. Just you wait, I’ll definitely make you look at me in a new light!”
However, to Zhou Hao’s surprise, the person who he had thought would be the first to come out, Jonina, had chosen to persist.
“Come out. I’ll continue to think of ways to improve in the future. This one can’t do now. I’ll continue to think of a suitable one!”
Zhou Hao chose to tell the gray-haired man to give up now.
The gray-haired man was gritting his teeth and had no intention of coming out.
Zhou Hao could immediately tell that he would not be coming out for a while.
