Chapter 723: Nolan

Hao Ren went back to the Gray Fox base and his return did not seem to attract much attention. Only a few people he had previously come across nodded at him as a greeting.

The battlefield is the best training ground, and all who have survived so far are elites, albeit... a bunch of very troublesome elites."
