Chapter 174: Breaking into South Korea! The Assassin Zhao Zheng is Here!

Chapter 174: Breaking into South Korea! The Assassin Zhao Zheng is Here!

The Provincial Extraordinary Association Tower stood tall as a skyscraper, soaring over fifty stories high.

It was an impressive sight.

This was Zhao Zheng's first time here, but he had no time for sightseeing.

Upon entering the association tower, President Song led him towards the elevator.

"Good afternoon, President Song!"

"Good afternoon, President Song!"

"Congratulations, President Song!"

Along the way, people greeted President Song.

He responded with a friendly nod, not putting on any airs.

The two of them then arrived at the elevator, where they boarded a private express elevator that took them directly to the rooftop terrace.

On the rooftop, a small transport aircraft was parked.

"Uncle Song, where's the pilot?" Zhao Zheng asked.

"The pilot is right in front of you!" President Song replied.

Zhao Zheng was taken aback and exclaimed, "Uncle Song, you know how to fly this thing?"

"Surprised?" President Song smiled. "This is a necessary skill for the association's core members. And this is a small transport aircraft with intelligent driving assistance, so it's easy to operate solo. For larger transports, you'd need at least three people to fly it."

As they spoke, they boarded the aircraft.

Zhao Zheng sat in the co-pilot's seat while President Song took the pilot's seat.

President Song started the aircraft, and his skilled maneuvers were evident.

Soon, the engine roared to life, spewing out intense blue flames as the transport aircraft took off into the sky.

Zhao Zheng watched as President Song focused on piloting.

He then opened his attribute panel:

Race: Human

Constitution: 3120

Spirit: 917

Strength: 3120

Agility: 3120

Talent: Shock Fruit Ability, Kryptonian Heritage [Steel Body V, Super Strength V, Super Speed V, Super Flight]



Skills: Bone Fist Impact, Armored Color Dominance (Masterful), Descension of the Demon God, Super Sensory Perception, Conqueror Color Haki (Beginner)



Auxiliary Ability: Dimensional Space

Spirit Energy Points: 845

...

It was clear that Zhao Zheng's attribute panel had undergone noticeable changes compared to before.

In addition to the normal attribute increases, the skills section now included a Beginner-level "Conqueror Color Haki," and there was also a new ability category called "Auxiliary Abilities."

Dimensional Space was classified as an auxiliary ability.

As for Spirit Energy Points...

He only had 45 left before.

The additional 800 points were a reward from the Universal Spirit Realm.

Zhao Zheng decided to use them to upgrade his Conqueror Color Haki.

Unexpectedly, the upgrade from Beginner to Proficient required a starting cost of 200 Spirit Energy Points.

Zhao Zheng recalled that when he had upgraded his Armored Color Dominance, it only required 120 Spirit Energy Points to start.

Was Conqueror Color Haki two-thirds more expensive? He frowned.

However, considering the rarity of Conqueror Color Haki, it seemed reasonable.

While many powerful individuals possessed Armored Color Dominance, finding someone with Conqueror Color Haki was nearly impossible worldwide.

Although Zhao Zheng found it expensive, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and bear it.

If he hadn't learned this skill, it wouldn't matter, but now that he had, he couldn't let it go to waste.

Zhao Zheng also wanted to witness the effects of a top-tier Conqueror Color Haki.

So, he decided to upgrade his Conqueror Color Haki to the Expert level in one go, spending a total of 700 Spirit Energy Points.

The upgrade from Beginner to Proficient cost 200 points, while Proficient to Expert required 500 points!

To reach the Master level from Expert, he would need 1200 points..."

As Zhao Zheng's Conqueror Color Haki reached the Expert level, the aura around him intensified significantly.

Even President Song, who was concentrating on piloting, felt the surge in Zhao Zheng's presence.

At this moment, in President Song's perception, Zhao Zheng seemed like a lion on the prairie, the king of beasts! Even with his back turned, one could sense the power emanating from him.

"Zhao Zheng, what skill did you acquire?" President Song couldn't help but ask.

Zhao Zheng didn't hide anything from President Song and replied, "It's Conqueror Color Haki!"

Upon hearing this, President Song was shocked.

He was well aware of Conqueror Color Haki and had witnessed Red Hair using it in the Spirit Realm.

It was incredibly powerful! Especially when Red Hair unleashed his Conqueror Color Haki, it was like thunder and lightning, changing the very fabric of the world!

If he were to face an opponent like Red Hair, he might not even be able to muster the thought of resistance...

President Song turned and looked deeply at Zhao Zheng, sensing that this young man might truly become a god among men, an ultimate existence.

Fortunately, his daughter was Zhao Zheng's partner.

When the time came, his success would also bring good fortune to those around him...

"By the way, where are your glasses?" President Song changed the subject.

"They're right here!"

Zhao Zheng's thoughts moved, and the large, extraordinary glasses appeared in his hand.

President Song was taken aback.

This was the first time he had seen such a magical effect.

However, he didn't ask further...

"At our current speed, it will take about forty minutes to reach the East China Sea. Zhao Zheng, you can take a break for now."

"Alright, Uncle Song."

...

Forty minutes later.

The transport aircraft slowed down.

President Song reminded him, "I can only take you this far. If I fly any closer, the Korean radar will detect us and cause unnecessary trouble. You should be able to fly across from here, right?"

"Of course!" Zhao Zheng replied with a smile.

With his current flying ability, even if he circled the entire Blue Planet, it would be a breeze.

Seeing Zhao Zheng's confidence, Song Leader nodded and said, "Alright, I'll wait for you on the island."

"Okay!"

Song Leader then opened the cabin door.

Instantly!

A massive airflow rushed into the transport aircraft.

"By the way!" Song Leader suddenly reminded loudly, "Try to fly at low altitude to avoid radar detection."

A moment later.

Zhao Zheng made an OK gesture, then leaped into the air and swiftly flew towards South Korea.

He was still controlling his flight speed.

If he flew at full speed, the sonic boom he would create could easily alert all the air forces in South Korea.

Watching Zhao Zheng fly away, Song Leader smiled and closed the cabin door, then turned the aircraft around.

His transport aircraft was registered in the country and could fly freely within the domestic airspace...

...

Ten minutes later.

Zhao Zheng had already arrived in Korea.

At this moment, he wore glasses that could alter his appearance and hide his aura, looking like an ordinary tourist.

He hailed a taxi on the road and handed the driver a note he had prepared earlier.

In Korea, the development of intelligent technology was slower, and all taxis were still manually driven.

The note he gave to the driver had the address he wanted to go to.

The driver took one look at the note and realized that Zhao Zheng was not a local. With a smile on his lips, he started the car and drove towards the destination.

This hospital was located in a prime spot, not far from the seaside, with mountains nearby. Especially the inpatient department building, every floor had sea-view rooms.

A hospital like this was naturally one of South Korea's high-end hospitals, serving only the elite of the financial groups. Those without the right connections and status were not allowed to enter.

Zhao Zheng's target was in the inpatient department building.

The security was tight around the inpatient department building, with several muscular men guarding the entrance and preventing unauthorized individuals from entering.

Of course, this was not a problem for Zhao Zheng.

He did not stay long, opening the room door and stepping out.

In the corridor, several nurses were busy, and Zhao Zheng's appearance caught the attention of a few of them. However, no one came forward to question him.

In the subconscious minds of these nurses, anyone who could pass through the security on the first floor was a verified important person.

According to the information provided by Song Leader, the old man was a member of a financial group family, but he had been abandoned and was no longer valued by the family. The reason they were still willing to spend money on his treatment was to maintain the family's reputation.

The old man's children rarely came to visit him.

Under these circumstances.

It was unlikely that they would send a super-being to protect his safety.

Where did the super-beings at the door come from?

Zhao Zheng quickly understood that the trouble Song Leader had been concerned about had indeed occurred.

They must have noticed him, a Kryptonian heritage talent holder, and intended to use this old man to uncover the secrets of the Kryptonian heritage.

Thinking of this.

Zhao Zheng had already made his decision.

He did not change his course and leave, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate.

If he retreated now and waited for an opportunity, what if the old man was moved away while he waited?

That would definitely become a huge problem.

Therefore, a swift and decisive strike was the best strategy.

After all, Song Leader had told Zhao Zheng that South Korea's top-tier powerhouses were not currently in the country. With Zhao Zheng's strength, he could walk freely in South Korea. There was nothing to worry about.

...

Just as Zhao Zheng was walking towards Room 1119.

On the 11th floor, an elevator door also opened at this moment.

Subsequently, Ma Dongwu emerged from the crowd, accompanied by a super-being with an arrogant aura. This person was an "assistant" Ma Dongwu had invited, possessing a powerful healing ability, known as the "Cure for Incurables"!

Of course, having him come was very expensive, and even with connections, it was not easy to request his presence.

Ma Dongwu was able to find him because of his substantial influence.

They exited the elevator and entered the corridor.

Ma Dongwu raised his head and saw that Zhao Zheng had already reached the door of Room 1119.
