Operation Storm

"Are they Ling Zhan, Shi Meng, and Li Qingshi?"

Chu Zhou looked at the three figures surrounded by many First High School students.

Those three figures had very distinct characteristics.

One of them was wearing a white training suit. He had silver hair and carried an ancient sword on his back. His expression was cold, like an ancient swordsman.

The second person had a strong physique. He was about two meters tall and had a wary face. His back was straight, and he had iron-like muscles spreading along the midline of his body.

This person was like a ferocious beast in human form. A domineering and violent aura emitted from his body.

The third person was an elegant girl with long hair.

Chu Zhou had seen photos of Ling Zhan and the other two on the school forum.

Therefore, he immediately recognized the silver-haired person with a sword on his back as Ling Zhan. The burly and domineering person was Shi Meng and the elegant girl was Li Qingshi.

"These three people are indeed extraordinary. They exude the feeling that they are stronger than all the Advanced Apprentice present…"

Chu Zhou was slightly surprised.

Of course, these three were strong—

But he was not afraid.

He had confidence that he was stronger!

"Those three monsters are not something we can compare to. Let's learn more about the other students."

Jin Zhennan said.

Zhou Tong nodded slightly.

He had always been confident that he could be amongst the top 15 of the Advanced Apprentice in the third year of the top ten high schools.

However, he also knew that he was not on the same level as Ling Zhan, Shi Meng, and Li Qingshi.

He might be comparable to those three monsters!

Liu Qianqian secretly glanced at Chu Zhou and thought to herself.

A middle-aged police officer in a police uniform with a dignified expression suddenly appeared on the podium in the hall.

"Hello, everyone!"

"I'm Wang Weiyang, the commander in charge of this operation!"

"I believe that your teacher should have already told you about the contents of this operation before you came here but I'll explain it again!"

"Our operation this time is codenamed Operation Storm. It's a clean-up operation against all the fallen martial artists lurking in our Jiang City."

"We want to clean up all the fallen martial artists in Jiang City in one go, as though we're cleaning up trash!"

Officer Wang Weiyang said with a solemn expression. He waved his hand fiercely, emitting his determination to clean up everything.

Everyone listened attentively.

"I'll say two things that you have to pay attention to now. This concerns your safety. You must remember them."

"First, the main force of this operation is us, the police, not you. You're only here to help. Once you find the stronghold of the fallen martial artists, you have to report it immediately and not attack the stronghold of the fallen warriors on your own."

"Second, you will follow the police as a team. There are more students from the First, Second, and Third High Schools which will be divided into several teams. Students from the other high schools will form teams with students from the same school. During the operation, you do not separate from your teams. Report immediately and stop the operation if someone is lost or seriously injured."

"Have you memorized it?"

Officer Wang Weiyang asked loudly.

"Yes!"

Many students responded.

"Alright, let's begin the operation! Assign yourselves to your own teams. Police officers will find you later."

Officer Wang Weiyang's figure moved and turned into a blurry afterimage before disappearing after he finished speaking.

No one saw how he left.

Many students were in an uproar. Only then did they realize that Officer Wang Weiyang was a terrifying martial arts master.

"Is this a real martial artist? He's too powerful. I won't even know how I died if he attacks me."

Chu Zhou muttered to himself. His heart was filled with yearning to become a martial artist.

After a while.

A tall and thin police officer walked up to Chu Zhou and the others.

"Chu Zhou, Liu Qianqian, Zhou Tong, Jin Zhennan… come with me!"

The tall and thin police officer led Chu Zhou and the others out of the hall and into the parking lot of the police station.

There were five hovering police cars waiting for them.

Chu Zhou and the others followed the instructions and boarded one of the hovering police cars.

Then, five hovering police cars immediately soared into the sky.

At this moment, night fell and the entire Jiang City became brightly lit.

All kinds of dreamy three-dimensional dynamic images and advertisements floated above the city and fused with the many skyscrapers. Real and fake images combined to form a huge visual impact.

This was an advertisement using 3D holographic projection technology.

The roars of monsters filled with violence and desolation came from afar, outside of the city.

The modern high-tech human city was strangely integrated with the savage and desolate sounds of monsters.

This was part of this world.

"Officer, what's our mission?"

Liu Qianqian asked the tall and thin police officer who was driving in the hovering police car.

"My name is Gao Jun." The tall and thin police officer first said his name, then said to Chu Zhou and the others, "After our careful investigation, there might be a Fallen Martial Artists' stronghold hidden in the Red Maple District on Wenshan Street."

"In a while, some of our police officers will enter the district directly to search and capture the fallen martial artists."

"Your mission is to assist the remaining police officers to guard the east, west, and south exits of the district."

After hearing Gao Jun's words, Chu Zhou and the others heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, they were secretly disappointed.

They heaved a sigh of relief because they did not need to face the dangerous fallen martial artists directly.

Disappointment was also because they could not capture fallen martial artists themselves. They would not be able to hone their skills.

It was a contradiction.

Five hovering police cars passed through skyscrapers and streets in the air.

In the end, they landed in the Red Maple District on Wenshan Street.

"Move out!"

All the police officers quickly jumped out of the hovering car. 15 of them rushed towards a residential building like cheetahs.

The remaining six police officers were divided into two groups. One group headed to the east gate, while the other headed to the west gate.

Chu Zhou and the other three were sent to the south gate.

Soon, sounds of intense fighting and gunshots came from the building where the 15 police officers were heading.

Many people in the neighborhood panicked when they heard the commotion.

Bang bang!

Suddenly, two figures crashed through the security net and fell from the sixth floor. Then, they immediately rushed towards the south gate.

Chu Zhou and the others could clearly see that they were two middle-aged men with ferocious gazes. One of them had his arm broken.

"Hahaha, we are too lucky!"

Zhou Tong shot forward like an arrow leaving its bow. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the two fleeing middle-aged men.

"Military Killing Fist!"

With a loud shout, he punched out with his fists like cannonballs, bringing about a strong air explosion.

Bang bang!

The chests of the two fleeing middle-aged men were directly penetrated by Zhou Tong's two fists, and they slowly fell to the ground, no longer alive.

"Hehe, so what if they're fallen martial artists? Most of them are mediocre people with potential and wild imaginations. It's your misfortune to meet me."

Zhou Tong stood beside the corpses of the two fallen warriors, his face full of disdain.

"Brother Zhou is amazing!" Jin Zhennan walked over and exclaimed, "These two fallen martial artists were actually dealt with by Brother Zhou with two punches."

"This is nothing. I only used 30% of my strength!"

Zhou Tong said indifferently. He looked at Liu Qianqian, like a peacock spreading its tail, trying his best to show off.

However, Liu Qianqian did not care. She frowned and said to Chu Zhou, "Chu Zhou, the situation is a little abnormal… The fallen martial artists in this stronghold are too weak."

"It's indeed a little abnormal." Chu Zhou nodded slightly.

He also felt that these fallen martial artists were too weak.

If the strongholds of the fallen martial artists were so weak, it would not have given the police such a headache.

"What's abnormal? Do you think that fallen martial artists are very strong? Many of them are mediocre people who have exhausted their potential and have no choice but to choose the wrong path… It's normal for them to be weak!"

Zhou Tong said with dissatisfaction, looking at Chu Zhou with an extremely unfriendly gaze.

Chu Zhou did not speak and could not be bothered with Zhou Tong.

Soon, all the police officers came over.

They frowned when they saw the two fallen martial artists killed by Zhou Tong.

"You'd better think of a way to delay them and inform us to rush over instead of fighting them to the death the next time you discover fallen martial artists. You are so irresponsible about your own lives!" One of the police officers said.

A trace of displeasure flashed across his Zhou Tong's eye when he heard it. He did not take the police officer's words to heart.

At this moment, another police officer continued.

"Our judgment was wrong. This is not a stronghold of fallen martial artists. There are only two fallen martial artists who happen to be hiding here to recuperate…"

"However, since there are fallen martial artists here… The real stronghold is very likely nearby."

"Therefore, we have to split up and search Wenshan Street as soon as possible!"
