Chapter 86: Heroes in Chaotic Times

Translator: 549690339

Hearing this news, Lin Zhen’s eyebrows furrowed.

He didn’t go out for drinks with Zhao Liang and the others because he had to test and research liquid metal. He didn’t expect them to get injured.

Since its establishment, Li Tianhao’s Turbulent Hero squad had not created significant disturbances. Lin Zhen even thought that if Li Tianhao didn’t bother him, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to let him off the hook.

But it turns out that a dog really can’t change its bad habits, as that guy eventually made his move.

After looking at the address of the hospital left by Shi Lei, Lin Zhen drove out and headed straight for the hospital.

Black Swan Hospital specialized in treating nobles and Martial Artists, making it an aristocratic hospital. Upon arriving, Lin Zhen went straight to the sixth floor.

In the single room, Zhao Liang and Meng Dong were lying there, wrapped up like glutinous rice dumplings. However, they were still mentally aware and struggled to move when they saw Lin Zhen enter.

Lin Zhen went over to stop the two of them, examined their conditions carefully, and listened to Shi Lei’s explanation. Both of them were badly injured, with multiple fractures all over their bodies and a broken arm each.

With the current medical technology, healing broken arm fractures was not difficult, but it might be difficult for Martial Artists to return to their previous

After all, an injured arm would find it hard to exert as much force as before, which could have a significant impact on their future.

Upon hearing Shi Lei’s introduction, Lin Zhen’s face was covered with frost, and the room seemed to have gotten slightly colder.

Without saying much, he sat down by the bed and asked Shi Lei and Gao Yan,

“What exactly happened?”

Shi Lei and Gao Yan were also injured, but only lightly and nothing major.

With panda-eye bruises, Shi Lei angrily said, “We went to Thousand Years Time bar for drinks and ran into Li Tianhao’s squad. There were a total of five people in their squad, and Old Hu from our martial arts school was also there.”

Lin Zhen nodded. He had already known that Old Hu had joined the Wan Hao Group. Old Hu was an Intermediate War General, and his strength was stronger than Shi Lei and Zhao Liang.

Shi Lei continued, “Seeing Old Hu made us feel uncomfortable. However, we didn’t provoke them. Instead, Old Hu took the initiative to come over and toast us. We just shared a few drinks, no big deal. But he insisted Zhao Liang chug a bottle of high -proof liquor. Of course, we wouldn’t fall for his trick, and we mocked him right then and there. That’s when Li Tianhao started it.” “Li Tianhao was the first to attack?” Asked Lin Zhen.

“Yes, that kid is a Level 9 Warrior now. With his surprise attack, Meng Dong was taken down. When we fought back, Old Hu and three other Advanced War Generals joined in. Old Hu was ruthless, and Zhao Liang was injured by him. Old Gao and I were also taken down by those Advanced War Generals. However, they didn’t hit us too hard, only Li Tianhao and Old Hu did.”

Lin Zhen glanced at the emotionally unstable Zhao Liang and Meng Dong on the bed, “Why did they only attack these two?”

After some hesitation, Shi Lei said, “Because… Li Tianhao said that it was because their relationship with you, Lin Zhen, was the best. From now on, in the Martial Artist circle, whoever gets close to Lin Zhen, he will beat them every time he sees them!”

Lin Zhen remained silent for a long time before asking, “Did the doctor say their arms have no chance of recovering?”

Gao Yan replied, “There aren’t many options. The fractures can be healed, but the damaged muscles and bones will certainly have some impact. It doesn’t matter much for Old Zhao since he has mentioned that he doesn’t want to go to the Wilderness Area anymore, so some damage is acceptable. But Meng Dong hasn’t been promoted to War General yet, so I’m afraid his future will be difficult…”

At this point, Lin Zhen interrupted Gao Yan, “I don’t think so. The new fracture medicine from the Technology Department has been developed for a month, right? That medicine is said to be able to heal fractures to the greatest extent, and with subsequent use of supporting medicine, there is a possibility of 80% recovery.”

“That’s right, the doctor said the same thing. However, this type of medicine is quite expensive, and the treatment cost for each person would be above a hundred million…”

“I’ll cover the cost.”

Without any hesitation, Lin Zhen asked for Shi Lei’s account information and transferred three billion yuan directly into his account.

“Here’s three hundred million, it should be enough to cover their medical expenses, and the rest can be spent on buying more supplements to help them recover. In the meantime, I’ll leave their care to you, Captain, and Old Gao.”

Shi Lei was dumbfounded and didn’t say a word. He never thought that Lin Zhen would have so much money.

On the hospital beds, though only a pair of eyes were visible outside of their bandages, Zhao Liang and Gao Yan’s eyes welled up with tears of gratitude and excitement.

Lin Zhen asked Shi Lei, “Captain, do you know anything about Li Tianhao’s team?”

Shi Lei thought for a moment, “Li Tianhao’s Chaotic World Heroes Team is actually just a babysitter team. The four War Generals, including Old Hu, are all Li Tianhao’s personal enforcers and bodyguards. They usually don’t go to very dangerous places; they mainly fight monsters to train Li Tianhao’s combat skills. With the support of the Wan Hao Group, Li Tianhao enjoys the best resources, so his strength has progressed rapidly. Even in a direct confrontation, Meng Dong is no match for him.”

Gao Yan continued, “Old Hu is a Fifth-level War General, so I won’t say much about him. The other three are Seventh-level War Generals. Among them, two are twin brothers named Xiao Tianzuo and Xiao Tianyou, both wielding long spears. They were the ones who injured Shi Lei and me at the Thousand Year’s Time. Their strength is decent, at least stronger than the captain and me, but not to the point where we can’t resist.”

“The other Seventh-level War General is called Lou Qingfeng. He didn’t show his skills in the bar, so I don’t know his specific strength. But judging by his skinny appearance, he might not be that strong; he is probably more of a strategist. We think the main combat power of the Chaotic World Heroes would be these twins.”

Lin Zhen nodded, weighing their words in his mind.

Among the War General level, the Chaotic World Heroes Team should be considered average. He had never paid much attention to Old Hu and the other three high-ranking War Generals, as Lin Zhen had no notable memories of them from before. It seems they are not that impressive.

Especially since hearing Shi Lei and the others’ account, Lin Zhen no longer feared the Chaotic World Heroes team.

Looking at the heavily injured Zhao Liang and Meng Dong, Lin Zhen could not let this go.

Ever since his rebirth, he vowed never to be trampled upon again in this life, not even by a god, let alone Li Tianhao, a rich second-generation brat.

“Do you guys know where they usually hang out?”

Just as Gao Yan was about to speak, Shi Lei stopped him with a look.

Seeing this, Lin Zhen addressed Shi Lei, “Captain, Old Zhao and Dongzi are lying here because of me. Don’t I even have the right to know this? Even without Old Gao telling me, wouldn’t I find out on my own?”

Shi Lei hesitated and said, “Lin Zhen, indeed, Li Tianhao left a message when he left. But everyone could see that it was a trap. He couldn’t easily make a move against you in the city, so he intended to lure you to the Wilderness Area to do so. You must not fall for it.”

“Captain, when have I ever acted recklessly without certainty? I won’t make a move without assurance, but I must know where they are.”

Seeing Lin Zhen’s stubbornness, Shi Lei sighed helplessly, “Lin Zhen, Li Tianhao said that they usually operate in the old Zhao Dong County City, and they’ll be going there again in a week. If you have the courage, go there.”

“Zhao Dong? The Martial Artist Graveyard ! ”

Zhao Dong was the nearest county town ruin to Ice City. Due to its proximity to Base City and the fact that monsters tend to prey on humans and are highly mobile, the monsters naturally gather in this direction.

Base City encourages martial artists to hunt monsters in Zhao Dong in order to guard against the threat of the monster hordes there. Those who hunt in Zhao Dong can even receive subsidies from the Base City and the military. Although the amount is not much, it guarantees basic income.

So the county town of Zhao Dong is always a place with many martial artists.

A higher number of people does not mean it’s safe. With more people, there are more monsters too, making it the place with the highest death rate, hence the reputation of being called the Martial Artist Graveyard.

Lin Zhen nodded without saying anything further and prepared to head home when his phone suddenly rang.

Picking up the phone and answering it, a gentle female voice sounded on the other end of the line. The caller was An Ning..
