Master Changsheng

Chapter 221, Section 218: The Abyss Plot

The next day.

Ankai ended his celebration.

Last night, perhaps it was because my mind was clear and at ease.

Ankai is more powerful than before.

I don't know if it's because of the upgrade from 'Iron Body' to 'Bronze Body'.

Today, just as Ankai was preparing to improve his [Meditation], he did as usual.

I subconsciously opened the [Side Story].

The change, however, caused him to stop upgrading his [Meditation] skill.

Nothing more!

[Side Quests] The storyline has been upgraded!

Ankai's first encounter with the Abyss in a side quest...

【1: ****】

【2: ****】

【3: ****】

...

The first thing that appears is a row of asterisks.

This was also the first time Ankai had seen it.

When he wants to open it.

However, a warning was received from the system.

[Note: Forcing yourself to watch may attract the other person's attention, so please choose carefully.]

The system notification startled An Kai.

"Unwatchable?"

"Could it be at the level of that damned Lady Luck?"

An Kai muttered a few words to himself and continued looking down.

[41: The Abyss of Wealth selects a new lord; one lord in the fifth layer of the Abyss, the Abyss of Immortality, seems to be showing some interest...]

"The fifth layer of the abyss?"

"The Abyss of Immortality?"

"This feels somewhat familiar!"

An Kai muttered a few words to himself and continued looking down.

[42: The selection of the Lord of the Abyss of Wealth has become a major event in the Abyss of Wealth!]

The Great Lord of the Abyss of Wealth has been gone for a long time; the Lord is now the ruler of the Abyss of Wealth…

Upon seeing this, An Kai's eyes lit up.

The Grand Lord of the Abyss of Wealth is absent. If elected, it would mean becoming the ruler of the Abyss of Wealth.

In that case, wouldn't he have more say?

An Kai thought about it briefly and immediately felt there were many benefits.

Unfortunately, An Kai admitted that his current strength was still somewhat lacking...

Faced with the lord's temptations, one can only look, not touch.

After all, he didn't even plan to submit the [Lord Candidate] quest.

But let's think about it from another perspective.

If Ankai could enslave all the goblins in the surrounding area.

Even if I'm not a lord then, I'll still enjoy the privileges of a lord...

Shaking his head and muttering a few words to himself, An Kai continued looking down.

【43:…】

【44:…】

...

Up to [50], all of these are side quests that Ankai doesn't understand.

It's all very confusing.

Things like the Green Goblin.

It wasn't until the 51st side quest that a storyline familiar to Ankai appeared.

[51: Ten Thousand Mountains, a goblin carrying a sword publicly announces his participation in the lord selection, intending to become the new lord of Ten Thousand Mountains.]

To generate hype, numerous spies were invited to witness him personally slay the alien race and avenge his goblin brethren!

Seeing this, An Kai understood.

This must be the help the Three Mountains Goblin Tribe encountered before.

Just then.

The [Beast Taming] command resonated in his mind, and Goblin 9527, the person in charge of the goblin tribe responsible for the three mountains, sent a communication.

It is said that the sword-wielding goblin has returned.

And they even drank the "holy water"...

Three whole buckets!

Not only did the sword-wielding goblin drink the "holy water," but the "reporter" goblin who accompanied him also drank it, and they were preparing to head to the territory of the House of Goodness...

Take a look.

Ankai smiled.

Regarding the Lord of the Abyss of Wealth, Ankai suddenly realized that even if he didn't participate, he could still compete for it...

Ankai had already learned this from enslaving Goblin 9527.

This is the Ten Thousand Mountains, also the territory of the lords competing in the [Abyss of Wealth].

Whoever is elected as the new lord will become the king of the Ten Thousand Mountains!

Furthermore, goblin tribes are the dominant group in the Ten Thousand Mountains.

It was destined that this new lord would be chosen from among the goblin tribe.

"Golden Dragon!"

While preparing to build the "Alien Pleasure Building" (a version of the "Abyss of Wealth") with Nurnexus and Gou Dan, the golden dragon suddenly stopped his work.

Not a moment's delay.

It soared into the sky.

It flew towards Ankai.

And Ankai…

Use this time to improve your meditation skills!

Take out a [Ninth-Order Dragon Core] and select to use it.

[Consumes 1000 Superior Skill Points]

[Consumes 1 Superior Energy Stone]

[Meditation Lv60] upgraded to [Meditation Lv61]

[Mage Body Lv6] upgraded to [Mage Body Lv7]

[Legendary NPC] upgraded to [Heroic NPC]

A series of system notifications sounded.

An Kai's imposing aura appeared one wave after another.

When the golden dragon came rushing in.

An Kai smiled and took a step forward.

They were already standing atop the golden dragon's head.

Perhaps he was in a good mood after the promotion.

For the first time ever, An Kai didn't scold the golden dragon for being slow; instead, he gently patted the top of the dragon's head.

"Let's go."

His tone was gentle, and his voice was mild.

It was as if he were a friendly older brother next door, and to Jinlong, it sounded like a warm and sunny young man speaking to him.

Jinlong blinked its huge eyes. Seeing the strangeness, it didn't say anything, but instead sped up and rushed towards the destination Ankai had mentioned.

He was afraid that being too slow would offend An Kai.

An Kai's unusual behavior made him uneasy.

For Jinlong, it was more reassuring to hear Ankai scold him a few times.

...

Goblin9527 did his best to appease the sword-wielding goblin.

Just as the sword-wielding goblin was getting impatient and was about to set off...

A dragon's roar suddenly came from afar...

"Damn crawler, I'll kill you today!"

Without a second thought, the sword-wielding goblin drew his longsword from his back and leaped into the sky.

We're about to deliver a fatal blow to that golden reptile!

The sword-wielding goblin had just floated into the air.

Then a long black whip suddenly appeared.

Before he could react.

The long whip fell...

With a crack of the whip, the sword-wielding goblin didn't even have a second to resist.

A black "staff mark" appeared on his forehead...

A few seconds later.

Golden light suddenly emerged from the cave where Goblin 9527 was located.

Ankai descended from the top of the golden dragon's head, with a well-behaved sword-wielding goblin beside him...

He approached Goblin 9527 and glanced at the clueless "goblin reporters"...

"News has spread that he..."

Ankai pointed to the sword-wielding goblin beside him and continued, "Slaying tens of millions of alien races!"

The goblin reporters remained silent.

Even at this moment, they still didn't understand what had happened...

Ankai lightly patted his forehead in response to their reaction.

"Look at my memory, I almost forgot how I enslaved you scum."

He conjured a [Beast Taming] whip, gripped it in his hand, and swung it out fiercely!

Snapped!

Whip crack...

The goblin journalists became slaves of Ankai.

Ankai wasn't prepared to open up to these goblin reporters.

They were slaves with a skill, so they could stay longer...

...

The next day.

In the heart of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Suddenly, a message is spreading rapidly!

A goblin carrying a sword slaughtered millions of alien races!

He then publicly announced his candidacy for the new lord of the Abyss of Wealth!

...

mainland.

Orc Kingdom.

After meeting with the mainland forces led by the Mage Association, the two sides reached an agreement.

Even if it means sacrificing a ninth-tier professional, they are determined to break through the restrictions of the Chaos Sea.

Let's go inside and see what the Good House is up to!

News of the Good House has not been heard for a long time.

It was as if they had vanished without a trace.

This further alarmed the mainland forces, led by the Long-lived Race and the Mage Association.

The last time the Good Family intervened, they almost crippled both sides...

Now, everything is fine.

The only difficult choice is the ninth-rank candidate.

The Long-lived Clan demanded that the Mage Association provide the funds, and the Mage Association demanded that the Long-lived Clan provide the funds.

The mainland is not an abyss.

Even the ninth tier wasn't everywhere.

The ninth rank remains the pinnacle of power on the continent.

Every word and action he takes can cause a stir on the mainland.

Ultimately, after much deliberation, the immortal race decided on this candidate.

However, they have one request.

The Mage Guild is not allowed to interfere in their conflict with the Orc King.

Upon hearing the request from the immortal being, the president of the Dharma Association agreed without hesitation.

Is this a requirement?

this is not.

This is clearly a double celebration!

That beast king, that bastard, his own power was destroyed, so he turned into a troublemaker, wreaking havoc on the continent.

The dragons, in particular, suffered terribly at his hands.

At this point, the immortal race was willing to resolve the problem of the Orc King.

This is a good thing for the anti-immortal species alliance led by the Mage Association!

The dragons, in particular, applauded!

This time, the immortal species kept its word.

In order to capture the Orc King, they did not hesitate to leave the Chaos Sea.

With the combined strength of their entire tribe, they finally captured the Orc King alive…

The reason for not killing them.

It's because of the demands of the people behind the immortal race!

The fifth layer of the abyss, the Abyss of Immortality.

—The Lord of Life's Request!

The Orc King was sent into the Abyss by the Immortal Race, and secretly placed into the [First Layer of the Abyss: The Abyss of Wealth] by the Lord of Life.

Heading to compete for the lord's position...

The reason for choosing the Orc King.

It's because the Lord of Life discovered the territory of the Lord of Wealth this time.

——A hundred thousand mountains!

That's goblin territory.

exactly…

Orcs and goblins have a historical connection.

Sending the Orc King to compete for the lord's position is a shrewd move...

...

The entrance to the Ten Thousand Mountains!

Behind me stretched an endless plain.

Before me stretched a range of towering mountains that seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see.
