Kevin was stunned at the first sight of Ant, who was once the top hunter. His most vivid memory of Ant was his hearty laughter and terrifying strength. Back then, two or three Flame Phoenixes were no match for him. He was always the first to charge into battle as the captain of the Hunter team. Now, he was curled up in a street corner, thin and pale. Kevin wondered how he had survived all these years.
Kevin quickly administered the prepared emergency injection to Ant. The ambulance should arrive soon, but his condition was probably beyond the capabilities of a regular hospital.
Ant, whose real name was Cheng Konghai, was a member of the Revelation Youth Class and the captain of the second Hunter team. He was the youngest among the Earthlings, but his strength was immense. He ranked fifth in the life energy intensity test of the entire Revelation Youth Class. He was warm and hearty. Li Hao back then was completely different from now, cold and reticent, incompatible with others. It was Cheng Konghai, who was also an orphan, who changed Li Hao. Only then did Nangong Yuhang recruit him.
As a core combatant on Earth's side, he was targeted in that battle. The Martians poisoned him and broke Cheng Konghai's two arms. This was the main reason for Li Hao's loss of control when he arrived later. The gene virus wasn't that severe originally, but the injuries during the battle aggravated the spread of the virus. Although his life was saved, his body collapsed. Li Hao was imprisoned, and Cheng Konghai was also locked up when he appealed everywhere. When he was released, he disappeared.
After Li Hao was released, he asked Kevin to look for Cheng Konghai everywhere, but it was clear that he was avoiding them...
More than an hour later, Li Hao received a Sky Message from Kevin. Ant was hospitalized, and his condition was very bad.
"Second Brother, I've checked. He just fainted from overexertion, but his physical condition is beyond the capabilities of the hospital here. I suspect it's genetic damage. Earth's medical level is not enough. I've checked, the best in this area is the medical center on Paradise Island," Kevin said helplessly. It was just that Cheng Konghai's foundation was too good. If it were anyone else, they would have been gone by now.
Not everyone could go there. It was a private land for the bigwigs of the alliance. Even if they went, the medical expenses would be astronomical. Obviously, Ant's condition could not be recovered in a short time.
"You stay there and take care of him," Li Hao pondered for a moment, "Stabilize him first, I'll figure out a way."
"Second Brother, you know, this kid is stubborn. I can't keep him if he insists on leaving," Kevin smiled bitterly. Ant's pride was too strong, otherwise, he wouldn't have been hiding from them for so long.
"You tell him, I really need his help now. Without him, I'm 99% done. He can't die, and he can't be disabled. I'll figure out the rest. If he leaves again, it means he doesn't want to help me."
"Holy shit, this is a good move. Second Brother, you always have a way. Got it!" If this set didn't work, and Ant didn't obediently lie down, it would be a real pinch.
In the principal's office of Tianjing Mech.
With the mid-season approaching, Long Danni's first major test was coming. Using Li Hao was a double-edged sword. If they won, everything would be fine. If they lost, there were many people coveting her position.
"Oh, isn't this Captain Li? You don't visit without a reason," Long Danni teased with a smile. There weren't many people as carefree as her. This kid was even more casual and free than before, often disappearing from the school. She didn't mind at all, sometimes even wondering if she had been brainwashed.
"Report, Principal, I've been working hard, ready to go through fire and water for the school!" Li Hao quickly flattered and showed his loyalty.
"Oh, tell me, how have you been working hard?" Long Danni was just teasing him. Trust those you employ, and don't employ those you don't trust. The more talented they were, the more eccentric their personalities tended to be. This was perfectly normal.
"Well, I think our school needs stronger support to achieve good results in the S competition. The current situation is not enough."
"Hehe," Long Danni looked at Li Hao with a smile that was not quite a smile, "Don't beat around the bush in front of me. If you have something to say, just say it. What's the point of all this buildup!"
Li Hao scratched his head, "Principal, I found a master, who is even more powerful and potential than me."
"What's the matter, which school is he from now? I can intervene, but if he's someone else's main force, don't even think about it."
"No, he's not a military school student. Whether he's admitted or not depends on you. But he's been injured before, quite seriously. He needs treatment first. It seems that only the Fulwood Medical Center on Paradise Island has the conditions." Li Hao looked at Long Danni, now it depended on whether Long Danni would help or not.
The famous Fulwood Medical Center, of course, Long Danni knew. It had the most advanced medical facilities, and more importantly, it had a huge resource channel. Some scarce drugs and treatment methods, including some gray methods, could be used.
"What's his name, what abilities does he have, what did he do before, tell me." After pondering for a while, Long Danni still asked. She needed to understand what she should understand.
"Cheng Konghai, 16 years old, former member of the Revelation Youth Class. Before being poisoned, his strength and consciousness were top-notch," Li Hao said.
Long Danni guessed that it must be another problematic person, "How sure are you that he can recover?"
"Principal, his condition is very difficult. I don't know what he can recover to, but I'm sure that if he can recover 80%, he will be at the top level of the alliance. He can beat Robbie and the like."
Li Hao looked into Long Danni's eyes, and Long Danni looked back at Li Hao. Both seemed to be looking for something from each other.
It seemed that there wasn't much bullshit. Long Danni thought for a while, "You really know how to give me trouble. I don't have much connection with Fulwood, but I can ask my teacher. You have to figure out the cost yourself, the school can't afford it."
"Thank you, Principal, thank you!" Li Hao bowed his head, "This is a great help."
Long Danni laughed, "I've known you for so long, this is the only time you're serious.""Report, the principal has always been my guiding light, my idol. I'm a person who likes to speak the truth, never one to flatter."
"Hehe," Long Danni didn't bother to argue with him, "What's Cheng Konghai's code name?"
"Huh?" Li Hao was taken aback.
"You don't think I know nothing about you, do you? Didn't you guys form a hunter organization back then? Chao Qinglong was codenamed Orient Loong God, Offee was Blood Rose, Mad Dog Perkins, what about Cheng Konghai?"
"Oh, the nickname, we all call him Ant, Ant No.2."
"Ant, implying that he can use strength more than a hundred times his body weight?" Long Danni also became interested.
"Yes, his gene dominance is quite pure." Li Hao nodded.
"What about you?" Long Danni suddenly asked with a smile.
Visibly, Li Hao's face turned red, "Cough cough, Principal, we were just kids playing house back then, don't tease me. I was the only honest one among us."
"You wait for my news, I think there is a certain chance. I can think of a way for the medical expenses, but from what you said, it seems quite tricky, it may not be enough."
"Principal, I will figure out the medical expenses, as long as we can find a good doctor."
"This is not a big problem." Long Danni nodded, that place was originally meant to make money. At this level, there aren't so many gimmicks. As long as the Forwood Hospital takes it, they don't have the guts to fool around.
As for the expenses, Li Hao had also thought about it. Ma Long and the others were well-off compared to ordinary students, but they were still spending their parents' money. It was different. He still had to think of a way for this matter. It would be best to get another Heart of the Ocean to sell. But the last one was a coincidence. He controlled a high-level Giant Insect, and the Giant Insect's nest was unguarded. Now there was no chance at all. Moreover, Ant's situation definitely couldn't wait. Kevin had a small treasury, but it wasn't enough.
...He probably still had to play his trump card!
In this regard, Li Hao was quite experienced. People always have difficult times, like him, he often asked for an advance on his salary from his boss. This time, asking his boss was definitely not possible. Among the people he knew, there were two options, Solomon and Tita.
Actually, both were quite tangled. After pondering for a long time, Li Hao decided to try with Tita first. After all, Tita was an international friend, and when it came to debt collection... the difficulty was also greater.
He opened his notebook and wrote about twenty reasons for borrowing money. There should be one that could move her, right? He took a deep breath, slapped his face, and made his expression a bit more humble. Alas, he should have sent her off when she left.
The Sky Message rang a few times and was quickly connected.
"Captain Li, what wind is blowing today that you actually took the initiative to contact me?"
From the sound of it, Tita was in a good mood today. Li Hao also laughed. It was a good day to borrow money.
"Captain Tita, well, actually, I have a favor to ask of you, and I think only you can help me." Li Hao was brewing his emotions, trying to make his voice a bit hoarse. It was said that this would make him seem sincere.
"Speak!" For some reason, a surge of heroism welled up in Tita's heart. She had almost no dignity in front of Li Hao, always being defeated, being beaten to a pulp and having to accept his advice was one thing, but because of the Heart of the Ocean, she had made a fool of herself in front of him. When she returned to the moon and thought about it, she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. He had prepared the unique Heart of the Ocean in the solar system, and she had actually wanted to make decisions for him from a high position. It was simply... she had lost all face. Tita's only hope was that Li Hao would completely lose his memory.
"I want to borrow some money." Li Hao plucked up the courage to say, "I know... this is hard"
"Okay, okay, say it, how much, hurry up!" Tita said excitedly. Suddenly, she admired Li Hao a bit. This guy was genuine, actually using this method to help her untie her knot. He had a grand scheme.
Li Hao was interrupted, and the reasons he had pondered for a long time were not needed, "Cough cough, that... I don't know exactly, but a lot." Li Hao carefully chose his words, he was a bit unsure of Tita's pulse.
"Of course it has to be a lot, you know and I know, no need to explain!" Tita laughed.
Li Hao didn't know what Tita understood, but ever since he met Tita, he felt that this girl's brain was not quite right, "It might need tens of millions..."
"Okay!" Tita nodded quickly, as if she was afraid that Li Hao would regret it.
"That, not tens of thousands, but tens of millions..." Li Hao touched his nose, he was a bit weak when he said "million", maybe the other party didn't hear clearly.

"I know, I can't take out tens of billions, let's just say that, you must borrow, no backing out!" Tita hurriedly said, taking advantage of others, eating short of others, holding each other's little tails, this way it's even.
Li Hao's expression was a bit dull, he didn't know what Tita was excited about, "That, it might take me a long time to pay back, but, I definitely won't default, won't run away."
Li Hao felt in his heart that although he wouldn't default or run away, there was nothing he could do if he couldn't pay back.
"Right, well said, what's the hurry!" Tita nodded, "I have to train, I'll transfer twenty million to you later, if it's not enough, just tell me, don't be polite."
After saying that, she hung up. She was still training with her team. Although the exchange match with Tianjing Mech didn't directly break through, it had already opened the door. Recently, her status has been soaring, and Li Hao is so cooperative, the embarrassing thing that has been hanging can also be put down.
The amount is certainly not a small amount, but for her, it is not a big amount either, and she doesn't even need to tell her family, her personal fund is enough.
At most, she would buy less jewelry and clothes, and she wouldn't need it for the S match. But she could get great satisfaction from the fact that Li Hao owed her money.Li Hao was indeed an oddball, a person who could obtain the Heart of the Ocean, yet spent his days delivering pizzas. It was bizarre, probably a ruse concocted by USE to confuse others. It was all so flashy and ostentatious that she couldn't be bothered to expose it. However, when it came to interpersonal relations, Li Hao was quite sensible. His method of borrowing money could only be described as wildly imaginative.
Brilliant!
