"Sir! No, there isn't!"

"grown ups…"

...

The nine fifth-tier professionals, suspended in mid-air, let out a mournful roar upon hearing An Kai speak.

He was afraid that if he answered too slowly, he would become a victim of Ankai's beating.

The eight bound fifth-tier professionals are all at the highest level, with the strongest being a fifth-tier seventh-level individual.

Even at the fifth rank and seventh level, he was utterly powerless against Widow Wang.

Without those 10 peak fifth-tier, tenth-level professionals, the remaining nine are not a threat.

Ankai alone could easily take care of half of the people inside.

The purpose of kidnapping these people was twofold: firstly, to collect taxes, and secondly, to recruit followers…

It would be such a waste to kill a fifth-tier professional.

Besides their abilities, each of them also offers invaluable insights into their profession.

After several hours of beatings, An Kai's resentment over being owed taxes had largely dissipated.

He walked up to these people, and the [Contract] materialized into an exquisite scroll containing the "Slave Treaty" prepared by Ankai. Signing it would make one equivalent to becoming Ankai's slave...

"I'll give you two choices: sign or die?"

As soon as An Kai spoke, the fifth-tier, seventh-level professional opposite him laughed.

"Not paying taxes is my problem."

"But you think you can use this to blackmail me into signing this bullshit contract?"

"Ha! Then you might as well kill me!"

The fifth-tier, seventh-level professional spoke with great confidence.

He possesses the strength of a fifth-tier, seventh-level cultivator, and is always treated as an honored guest wherever he goes.

He still couldn't believe that the guy in front of him would really be willing to kill him.

It should be understood that the benefits a living Tier 5, Level 7 professional can bring are far greater than those of a dead Tier 5, Level 7 professional.

This is also the source of his confidence in choosing to confront Ankai head-on.

It's just a bit of a pity...

An Kai is not the kind of person who will compromise when threatened.

Although his "contract" can be modified at will, both parties must genuinely agree to it when signing.

Otherwise, the contract cannot take effect.

The attitude of this fifth-tier, seventh-level professional fully demonstrates that he will not choose to compromise…

Not to mention any heartfelt contract signing.

Especially when he heard the fifth-tier, seventh-level professional's last request, An Kai smiled and whispered, "I'll grant your request."

The fifth-tier, seventh-level cultivator was about to curl his lips into a smirk, wondering if he had finally realized his worth and was ready to compromise.

Ah!

however…

With a thought, An Kai conjured up the armor of the [Magic Armor] spell.

He gripped the jet-black [Brute Force Staff] with both hands, measured it against the head of a fifth-tier, seventh-level professional, and made a golf-teeing motion...

Under the terrified gaze of the fifth-tier, seventh-level professional, Ankai suddenly swung the [Brute Force Staff] in his hand…

boom!

Like a burst of crimson fireworks, it exploded in an instant…

Without Ankaido saying a word, Malken, with his keen sense, stepped forward and dragged the body away...

"That's a great request."

With a muttered command, he approached the second Tier 5 professional, wielding the [Brute Force Staff]...

Before An Kai could speak, the fifth-tier professional quickly interjected, "I'll sign! I'll sign!"

"You're on the right track." An Kai narrowed his eyes, and the [Contract] materialized into an exquisite contract scroll. He patted the fifth-tier professional in front of him on the shoulder and said softly.

...

dawn.

Ankai successfully recruited eight new fifth-tier henchmen.

Including the fifth-tier, fourth-level mage, there are a total of two fifth-tier mages.

The remaining six were five warriors and one knight.

Subduing these people was just a side effect; after collecting taxes, Ankai earned a total of over 10 gold coins.

9312 low-grade magic stones.

This allowed Ankai's low-grade magic stone reserves to reach five figures again.

In addition to these, Ankai also learned some news that excited him.

One of the fifth-tier knights from the Kingdom of Shak told him that there was a high probability of magic stone veins existing in the desert.

And there might be more than one!

The basis for this claim is that the magical beasts in the desert are all breaking through their limits of strength in a short period of time.

These words excited An Kai.

With a wave of his hand, he appointed this man as the "Captain of the Magic Stone Mine Search Team" and assigned him two Tier 5 warriors to serve as his Magic Stone Mine Search Team members.

In addition, some fourth- and third-tier members from their respective factions also served as search team members.

Without pausing for a moment, after receiving Ankai's mission, they immediately left the city and headed to the desert to search for the existence of a magic stone mine...

Ankai was relatively reassured by the search team consisting of three fifth-tier professionals.

Their journey out of the desert was not only to search for magic stone veins, but also to fulfill Ankai's mission to find the orc settlement.

Afterwards, Ankai summoned two fifth-tier mages, and together with them, ten fourth-tier mages and some third-tier mages, they formed the "Good Household Mage Association".

Its purpose is also very simple.

This is to serve Ankai, for example, by having them study the [Contract] or the other seven spells that Ankai has mastered day and night to help Ankai improve the quality of his spells.

In short, these people from the Good Family cannot be idle.

As for the remaining three fifth-tier warrior professionals, they also have their own jobs.

First, we will cooperate with the city's guards to form a guard team.

Second, to train professional soldiers in the city.

And the third function is to go out hunting magical beasts, forging warriors while also providing resources for Ankai…

As for the good family in the city.

Reed was still the city lord, and Polpi was the deputy city lord.

The vast city was governed by two first-tier professionals, and the residents had no objections.

There's nothing we can do; those who had objections have already disappeared...

For Ankai, life returned to normal.

Meditate and cultivate in the [Mage Tower of Lazel], and stroll around the city to relax in your spare time.

If it weren't for the threat from that bastard Donglin, this would be the life Ankai truly longed for...

A month later.

The "Good House Dharma Masters Association" has played its role.

Their insights into [Contracts] successfully helped Ankai improve the quality of [Contracts].

Upgraded from [Superior-] to [Superior].

At this point, all nine of Ankai's spells have been upgraded to [Superior Grade].

The quality of the [Contract] has been improved, and a new feature has been added.

This allows Ankai to see the state of the person who signed the contract with him before their death or before they breached the contract.

It's similar to a death replay.

He tried several times and saw three fifth-tier, tenth-level professionals who had died in the [Spirit Empowerment Secret Realm].

When he died, his eyes were wide open in anger, as if he had seen something terrifying.

Of the ten fifth-tier, tenth-level professionals who entered the [Spirit Empowerment Secret Realm], six remain…

Chris has yet to appear.

This made Ankai suspect that Chris's true form might have died in the [Spirit Empowerment Realm].

After all, as fellow fifth-tier, tenth-level professionals, Chris doesn't seem to have any advantage.

Besides the mouth…

The "Good House Dharma Association" has made progress.

The team that went out to search for the magic stone veins returned with no good news.

However, during their search, they encountered several groups of orc scouts.

Unfortunately, no useful information was obtained from these beasts whose brains were no bigger than their toes.

Ankai, too, diligently followed the side quests daily, keeping a close eye on Donglin's progress and hoping to find the orcs' settlement through them...

Unfortunately, the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs truly embodied caution in every aspect of his life…

...

A gathering place for orcs.

50 meters underground.

The twenty-eighth prince of the orcs was taking a bath in hot water heated by the lake.

He lay supine in a wooden bathtub, which was five meters long and five meters wide.

She hummed softly and comfortably.

Beside him, three fifth-tier orcs and 28 fourth-tier orcs stood guard.

The fifth-tier orc general, who was quite familiar with the twenty-eighth prince, saw that the prince had opened his eyes a crack and said softly:

"Your Highness, the [Spirit Empowerment Realm] has indeed appeared. It is located in the House of Goodness. On that day, a total of 10 fifth-tier professionals entered it."

The 28th Orc Prince suddenly opened his eyes: "Whoa! This guy is ruthless, he just killed 10 fifth-tier warriors!!"

"Luckily, I'm not interested in this!"

The twenty-eighth prince of the orcs patted his chest in the sink, still shaken.

The ferocious orc head revealed a look of lingering fear.

General Dao was taken aback, then asked in confusion, "Your Highness, why was it a massacre?"

As soon as he spoke, he saw the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs looking at him as if he were a fool:

"Are you stupid? Do you really think the success rate of this [Spirit Empowerment Realm] is very high?"

"I could guess with my eyes closed that if even one of those ten people survives, he'd be incredibly lucky!"

Just as the fifth-tier orc general was about to ask some questions, the twenty-eighth orc prince waved his hand impatiently.

General Dao could only scratch his head and retreat, completely bewildered.

Then, the fifth-tier beastman general stepped forward: "Your Highness, news has arrived from the capital."

Upon hearing this, the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs' eyes lit up. He quickly sat up and excitedly asked, "Have they sent someone to rescue me?"

The fifth-tier beastman general shook his head, frowned, and said softly, "The capital said that Your Highness should be careful. Recently, the situation in the Eastern Continent has been unclear and turbulent, as if a giant hand is controlling it."

"The Emperor is worried that if we act rashly, we will become pawns in someone else's game."

Upon hearing General Li's words, the 28th Prince of the Orcs fell silent.

He once believed that by taking over the inner city of Chaos City, he could occupy the desert and secure a suitable territory for the orcs to return to the Eastern Continent.

Now he realizes he was wrong.

The desert is not that simple.

The sudden rise of the Good Family, and the scheming of Donglin, the town of the dead.

Looking back now, only the superficial power of Chaos City in the desert was the easiest to deal with.

However, Chaos City also harbors its own secrets and is holding the orcs back.

At this moment, the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs only wanted to return to the capital.

What desert or not, that's something he can't possibly plan with his current strength.

Why have the seven surrounding countries continued to tolerate the invasion of foreign races? Why haven't the top human associations in the Eastern Continent taken action? Could it be that they are unable to act for some reason?

They are probably waiting for the alien army to enter, then wiping them out in one fell swoop, inflicting heavy losses on the aliens, and then launching a counterattack on their alien territories!

Thinking of this, and combining it with the news from the orc kingdom.

The twenty-eighth prince of the orcs broke out in a cold sweat. If they hadn't been sealed off by the desert, they would probably have become cannon fodder...

After much deliberation, the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs issued one order that he could manage:

"Spread the word that Donglin of the Town of the Dead is using human blood sacrifices to enhance his strength."

"Of the seven desert kingdoms, the town of the dead is the biggest swindler!"

"Furthermore... Donglin seems to possess a complete method for advancing to the [Spirit Empowerment] stage!"

The fifth-tier orc general was taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Your Highness, what are you doing...?"

"Don't ask, just do it."

The twenty-eighth prince of the orcs waved his hand without explanation.

He did this to test the attitudes of those top associations.

Blood sacrifice is a forbidden evil practice.

If even top-tier associations are turning a blind eye and condoning Donglin, then this really is a trap.

A trap set by humans for their alien races.

At that time, the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs will try every means to retreat back to the orc kingdom and never set foot in the Eastern Continent again.

If it's a matter concerning Donglin, someone will take care of it.

That means it's not as bad as he thought; it's highly likely that these top human associations, just as they received the information, really have run into problems.

"Ugh! Why did I even come here!"

Inside the bath, the twenty-eighth prince of the orcs sighed helplessly…

I feel like my future is bleak.

In the desert dwells the madmen of the Good Family, and outside in the town of the dead are those monsters.

When did orcs become the feared ones compared to humans...?

While sitting in the bath, the twenty-eighth orc prince felt like he'd been given the wrong script...

It shouldn't have been like this, as he had anticipated...

...

The Town of the Dead.

While in seclusion, Donglin learned from the King of the Shak Kingdom that the matter of his blood sacrifice had already spread.

The origin is the Principality of Buklin.

This could very likely trigger an investigation by a top-tier association.

Donglin remained calm and unperturbed.

"It's alright, if they dare to come, just kill them."

Upon hearing this, the King of the Kingdom of Shak was about to leave when he suddenly stopped, bowed his head, and asked firmly, "Lord, do you truly possess a complete method for [Spirit Empowerment]?"

The words had barely left his mouth.

Inside the castle where Donglin was in seclusion, a sudden surge of immense force sent the King of the Shak Kingdom flying...

"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!"

Immediately following was Donglin's cool, clear voice...

...

one year later.

A virtuous family.

Today, Ankai did not continue his meditation practice.

The reason was that the [Spirit Empowerment Realm] was tremoring.

Someone is about to leave the pass!

To welcome this person, Ankai brought eight fully armed Tier 5 professionals.

Malken, wielding the Concealed Dagger, and the Widow Wang, fully on guard.

And Ankai, a first-tier, first-level mage wielding the [Brute Force Staff], capable of unleashing [Fireball] and [Wind Blade] spells at any time…

The [Enchantment Instance Certificate] lies quietly in the courtyard of the castle, surrounded by cages created by Ankai using [Fireball] and [Freeze].

If anyone who leaves the pass no longer abides by his contract, he will not hesitate to take action.

Meanwhile, the escape route was already prepared, right at Ankai's feet.

A moment later, the [Enchantment Instance Certificate] flashed with light...

A hearty laugh rang out first:

"Hahaha! I'm back alive!"

"So this is what spirit infusion is!"
