Master Changsheng

Chapter 47, Section 046: Return to Chaos City [New Year Bonus Chapter]

The shockwave from the fireball reached Chaos City, a kilometer away.

Hanks, who was setting up a stall in Chaos City, suddenly stood up: "Strange, what's wrong with those orcs now?"

Unable to understand why, Hanks shook his head.

He continued lying next to Huang Ma, and after a moment, a soft snoring sound began...

...

Five minutes later.

For the past five minutes, An Kai seemed tireless, continuously casting fireballs throughout.

At this moment, he sensed his own magical power and found that he still had about one-third left.

Meanwhile, the orcs not far from Reed had already been blasted into pieces by Ankai's two fireballs cast in a single second...

There weren't many intact.

They couldn't even piece together three complete orc bodies.

People become numb after being overwhelmed by shock.

Just like Reed is now.

He had been lying there in a daze ever since An Kai made his move.

It was as if they had lost their sense of shock.

My heart is completely numb.

Reed was at a loss for words to praise Ankai's power.

Within his limited repertoire of praise.

I couldn't find a suitable word for Ankai!

Genius? Prodigy?

That's not enough.

"Well done."

At some point, Ankai arrived beside Reed, riding on the [Stone Giant].

Reed snapped out of his daze and gave Ankai, who was sitting on the shoulder of the Stone Giant, a silly grin.

At this moment, in Reed's mind, Ankai's strength had already surpassed that of his master... Hanks!

Struggling to his feet, Reed instructed the uninjured warrior to take good care of the two wounded warriors, while he followed Ankai toward the orc settlement.

An Kai glanced at Yan De with some surprise. The kind of relationship between the four of them was extremely rare to encounter in this desert.

The probability is the same as encountering the fifth princess of the Principality of Bucklin.

In the desert, deceit and treachery are the norm.

The unwavering bond between Reed and his three companions is something that even a life-saving debt might not be enough to repay…

However, An Kai wasn't particularly interested in how this relationship was formed; it was nothing more than the kind of bond forged in life and death.

After hearing this, he felt that besides satisfying his curiosity, there was no benefit to it.

It could also lead to some misunderstandings, causing him to change his impression of the desert people, and easily creating the unhealthy trend of being soft-hearted!

Reed followed behind the Stone Giant, waiting for Ankai's question.

If An Kai asks why the four of them have such a close relationship, he will tell the truth, and incidentally play the victim...

But An Kai only glanced at it and then stopped paying attention...

There is a deep pit stretching for hundreds of meters away from where the orcs gather.

As soon as you get close, the scorching heat and the stench of blood hit you.

The soft sand, under the indiscriminate bombardment of fireballs, turned into dark brown soil…

It appears to be much harder than before.

An Kai glanced at it and looked at it with some disdain.

The order was given to the Stone Giant to take a detour.

"Reed, check if anything is missing."

He turned back to give a final instruction, then steered the [Stone Giant] to take a detour...

Reed stared at the hellish scene before him, overwhelmed by the stench of blood...

With a helpless sigh, he said, "Alas!"

Silently recite: "Thorn Armor!"

Thorns appeared and adhered to Reed's surface, forming a protective layer.

This is precisely the skill of a level 5 wizard.

It is also the highest-level wizard armor skill that Reed currently possesses.

He bought this from the bounty tower for 20 gold coins!

...

Inside the orc settlement, the Stone Giant carried Ankai into the settlement, which was filled with a foul odor.

It can destroy any house it encounters, and wherever it goes, it unleashes a fireball.

Then he commanded the [Stone Giant] to scavenge through the collapsed buildings, searching for resources that would be useful to Ankai.

They destroyed three houses in a row, but didn't find many resources or money.

However, there are quite a few human bones.

The skulls, polished smooth and shiny by the orcs, have become their everyday tools.

Seeing this, An Kai silently murmured, "Amitabha Buddha, may the Lord bless you..."

After finishing reciting, realizing that the three factions he mentioned shouldn't exist in this area, he added, "May the God of Law protect you!"

Then a fireball was unleashed, engulfing the human bones...

This settlement consists of 13 pyramid-shaped, pointed structures.

Among them, there are 3 large ones.

Ankai had assumed that the large building was the residence of the orc leaders.

Who knew this place was actually the orcs' "dormitory"!

They found quite a few tools that orcs used daily, but no resources or money.

At this moment, An Kai had a bad feeling.

Could it be that there's nothing there at all?

...

Ten minutes later, Ankai stood in front of the last orc building, his face ashen.

There really isn't a single valuable thing in the buildings in front of us!

He said "May the God of Law protect you" many times...

Holding the Staff of Brute Force, a fireball was unleashed.

They destroyed the orc settlement, the smallest of which was a pyramid-like structure.

After the collapse, the [Stone Giant], like a diligent worker, squatted on the site of the ruins, rummaging through the debris...

Ankai didn't go inside to search first and use fireballs to destroy the buildings because he glanced inside the orcs' buildings.

It's no exaggeration to say there's nowhere to put your feet...

Two minutes later.

An Kai's eyes lit up.

The stone giant emerged from the ruins carrying two solid wooden treasure chests, each about one meter long and fifty centimeters wide!

Placed in front of Ankai, Ankai, wielding an ice-spell cleaver, cleaved the two treasure chests in two without hesitation!

One of the treasure chests, upon closer inspection, was a dazzling golden color.

A rough count revealed 132 gold coins.

Inside the other treasure chest, however, was a nameplate…

"Prince of Bukrin - First Orc Division - Squad 165 - Captain Ansel".

"Prince of Buklin - First Orc Division - 98th Battalion - Commander-in-Chief Russell".

"The Principality of Buklin..."

...

There were exactly eight nameplates, no more and no less, corresponding to the eight second-tier orcs in the orc settlement.

After putting away the nameplate, An Kai prepared to take it to the bounty tower to try his luck and see if he could exchange it for some resources.

He glanced at it briefly and then put all the gold coins away.

Overall, the results were somewhat low and did not meet his expectations.

However, after seeing the information on these nameplates, Ankai expressed his understanding.

He guessed that every now and then, a large orc army would come here to collect resources.

As for not encountering the magic stone, Ankai was not surprised, since the orcs were known for their low mage talent.

He gathered his loot, unleashed a few fireballs to set the orcish encampment ablaze, then called to Reed and his three companions who were still behind him, and headed towards Chaos City…

...

Chaos City, about two hundred meters from the entrance.

Reed swallowed hard.

The shock of watching Ankai smash the Stone Giant with his staff was no less than the shock of that blow to his head.

Ankai found the magic core among the rubble.

Silently say, "Exchange!"

[Skill Point +2]

Continuing towards Chaos City…

...

As soon as An Kai entered the city, he saw an old acquaintance...

"Hanks! I'm with you to enjoy life, not to suffer!"

"If you don't bring back any money tonight, don't blame me for finding you some buddies!"
