Zongman: The wrong person on the ground, double Shenwei at the beginning

Another path, huh...

Private room at the hotel.

"Mr. Rhodes! Long time no see! Oh, and you're here too, brother..."

A vibrant Cheng Xiaoya, arm in arm with Nuoyin and Leyana, greeted Rhodes with a cheerful smile.

Cheng Xiaoyu, who was sitting in the corner like a nobody, complained helplessly.

"So I was just a bystander... Oh right, Xiaoya, go and say hello to these seniors."

Cheng Xiaoya turned her head and was immediately startled by the scene before her.

The people in this room were all big shots that you could only see on TV!

She suddenly became nervous, unsure of what to do with her hands and feet.

Gao Jianli smiled and comforted her.

"Don't be nervous, young lady. This is a private gathering. Since you are Mr. Rhodes' friend, just relax and make yourself at home."

Che Huiyi also gently waved to Cheng Xiaoya.

"Come sit here with me."

Cheng Xiaoya subconsciously turned her head to look at Luo De, and when she saw him nod with a smile, her eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to move closer.

She had long admired this beautiful and powerful female S-class hunter!

Upon seeing this, Cheng Xiaoyu's lips twitched again.

Hey! I'm your real brother!

Rhodes then casually introduced Noin and Leyana to each other.

At this moment, all the hunters from Country H present felt a surge of relief once again.

Two more S-class players!

Moreover, he exuded a battle-hardened, undisguised, and powerful aura...

Thank goodness... thank goodness no conflict occurred just now...

Noin and Leyana naturally walked over and sat down on Rhodes' right side.

As Gao Jianli saw that everyone had arrived, he had just picked up his wine glass to say a few opening remarks when the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open.

A slightly flippant voice rang out.

"Hey, don't mind if I come and mooch a meal too!"

When the hunters from Country H saw the newcomers, their expressions changed instantly, and they all instinctively stood up.

The newcomer was none other than Liu Zhikang, a Seven Star Hunter from Country Z, hailed as the strongest man in Asia!

Even Gao Jianli, a seasoned old man, felt a chill run down his spine.

Why did this expert suddenly appear?!

Could it be that... Country H is going to explode today?

"...Of course you're welcome, Hunter Liu Zhikang."

Liu Zhikang didn't seem to care whether the other party agreed or not. He walked straight to Rod's side, sat down, opened a bottle of wine, and poured a glass for Rod and himself.

"Brother Rhodes, you've been in seclusion for so long, why did you suddenly decide to come out and relax?"

In the identity given to Rhodes by the system, after clearing out many dungeons on his own, he has been in seclusion, refusing to see any outsiders, until now.

Some people in China even used this as a reason to attack Rhodes, clamoring online to cancel his special treatment.

As a result, those who jumped the highest were caught on the spot and sent to the police station by Liu Zhikang through the internet.

For this reason, Rod had a rather favorable impression of him.

Luo De raised his glass and clinked it against Liu Zhikang's.

"Because I've noticed something..."

Liu Zhikang's gaze sharpened slightly, and he immediately changed the subject.

He glanced around at the hunters from Country H present, grinned, and revealed his gleaming white teeth.

"So, are you having a good time traveling here? Have any of those clueless guys tried to cause you trouble?"

These hunters, who were once high and mighty, froze instantly, cold sweat pouring down their backs.

For such words to come from one of the world's strongest "national power level" hunters, they could not possibly take it as a joke.

I don't know about other hunters from Z country, but this Liu Zhikang is really protective of his own.

And unlike the stereotypical image of Chinese people as amiable and unassuming, he is a truly ruthless individual who would actually take down hunters from other countries.

Fortunately, Rod easily got them out of the predicament.

"They're quite reasonable. By the way, why did you suddenly come to H country?"

"Haha, I just heard about you, so I wanted to check on you."

The other party made no attempt to hide the fact that they had investigated Rod's whereabouts, and this honesty and straightforwardness were not off-putting.

Moreover, the other party was most likely just worried that something was wrong with his health, which is why they rushed over in such a hurry.

The atmosphere at the dinner table gradually became more relaxed.

At first, everyone just talked about some public information about the Hunter world in a very formal and methodical way.

It wasn't until Bai Luhao got a little tipsy that he couldn't help but complain about some of the guys from China.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhikang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he laughed loudly as he stepped forward to toast him three times, and then joined in the吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to complain or criticize).

Suddenly, the atmosphere became so lively it was like Chinese New Year, with all the hunters joining in.

Che Huiyi and Cheng Xiaoya were originally talking about some interesting things about S-class hunters, but later, without realizing it, the topic turned to Rhodes.

Looking at Cheng Xiaoya, whose face lit up and eyes sparkled when she talked about Luo De, Che Huiyi felt a little strange.

Li Xiaoxi, who was standing to the side, would occasionally chime in, pricking up her ears and listening intently.

As for Cheng Xiaoyu and Song Zhiguo, they completely disappeared, frantically eating and drinking the expensive ingredients that they would never normally dare to buy.

Anyway, nobody pays any attention to them.

After a hearty meal, Liu Zhikang noticed that Luo De was in good spirits, even seemed stronger than before, so he decided to leave.

"Wait a minute. Now that you're here, there's something I need to talk about later."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhiguo and Cheng Xiaoyu immediately stood up, showing great tact.

"Well...we'll be going now."

After saying that, Cheng Xiaoyu quickly called to Cheng Xiaoya, who was still a little reluctant to leave, and they left together.

As Cheng Xiaoya left, she quietly waved to Rod, who smiled and winked.

Li Xiaoxi was also thinking of leaving, but Rod spoke up.

"You stay."

Li Xiaoxi pouted, looking somewhat aggrieved, but still stayed.

Everyone present glanced at her, and they all seemed to understand what was going on.

The atmosphere in the room changed abruptly as soon as the door closed.

Everyone stopped smiling and looked at Rhodes with serious expressions.

Rod wiped his mouth with a napkin.

“I know you are concerned about what happened to me in the dual dungeons.”

Liu Zhikang, standing to the side, raised an eyebrow but did not speak rashly.

Rhodes uttered the most chilling words in an incredibly calm tone.

"I can tell you that, whether you believe it or not, this world will be destroyed within a year."

Everyone's eyes widened instantly.

After a long while, not a single person was able to utter a word.

In the end, Liu Zhikang frowned deeply, staring at Luo De with sharp, piercing eyes.

"From a personal standpoint, I'm willing to believe you're not just making things up. But if you want the authorities to believe you... do you have any evidence?"

"Within three months, a colossal portal will appear in Country R. At that time, even if all the [National Authority Level] hunters in the world joined forces, they would not be able to stop the destruction of Country R, ​​and that will be the beginning."

That portal connects to the territory of the King of Titans, the Great Ancestor, and will release a large number of Titans to trigger the Rumbling of the Earth.

The R country in this world doesn't have a Captain Levi, and firearms are almost ineffective against Titans with magical powers. It's safe to say that if Cheng Xiaoyu hadn't been in the original work, the country would have been destroyed.

The hunters from Country H tensed up again.

It wasn't that they had any deep humanitarian concern; it was simply that if this were true, then as R country's neighbor, they would suffer the most direct impact!

Gao Jianli barely managed to remain calm and asked the question in an almost pleading tone.

"Since you put it that way, surely... there must be a solution?"

Rod smiled faintly, but his words were full of absolute confidence.

"The key is your attitude. I can say this clearly: if I don't take action, no one in this world can stop those guys."

Cui Zhongyin, still wanting to ask a whole host of questions like "Who are those guys?", suddenly stood up abruptly.

"Let's go find a place to fight."

Gao Jianli remained silent for a moment before standing up as well.

"I'll make the arrangements for you."

Thirty minutes later, on the deserted island that had been shattered into countless small pieces.

Liu Zhikang lay sprawled on the ground, panting heavily.

"Ha...ha...it's been a long time...no one has been able to push me to this point...I'm sure what you said...is true!"

On the other side, Rhodes didn't break a sweat at all, and lazily stretched.

The battle with Liu Zhikang allowed Rhodes to roughly estimate his current combat strength.

Evolving to Lv.7 results in an all-around improvement.

Kaguya's sword draw slash, enhanced by her immense power, could easily cleave an entire island in two with a single strike!

And the magic he copied, driven by the current massive amount of magic power, has an effect that is unimaginably strong!

Most importantly, although he cannot fully unleash the power of the Shadow Monarch in the short term, he can freely draw upon that extremely vast and almost limitless energy!

In this situation, both Kamui and Susanoo underwent a qualitative change!

If he gets serious, even if Liu Zhikang also possesses a fragment of brilliance, he can only last a few seconds before being instantly killed!

The hunters from Country H who were watching from the sidelines were completely dumbfounded, their jaws practically dropping to the ground.

"Rhodes Hunter... is he really not the final boss who escaped from the dungeon?"

After regaining his strength, Liu Zhikang sprang to his feet.

"What do you want? I guarantee I can get you the best possible rights from within China!"

The promise of the Seven Star Hunters is as heavy as Mount Tai, and it is no exaggeration to say that even if the highest-ranking people knew about the coming apocalypse, only Country Z would have the ability to unite the entire nation and mobilize its resources to deal with it in a short period of time.

A fierce glint flashed in Liu Zhikang's eyes.

"If the world really ends... I won't care about the methods anymore. If there are any guys in the country who dare to jump out, I'll wipe them all out."

Gao Jianli also came over. He wanted to promise Luo De something, but in the end, he could only give a bitter smile.
