[Identity: Guide for the homeless.]

The four attributes have doubled compared to before the seclusion.

The five spell levels have also increased from [Lv12] before the seclusion to [Lv16], which is a significant improvement.

The upgrade of [Meditation] to [Lv16] allows Ankai to gain an attribute point in just 18 hours, and with the [Meditation Staff] in hand, it only takes 17 hours.

The reduction in the time to acquire attribute points is one aspect, but more importantly, Ankai's control and understanding of spells have become increasingly profound.

The most obvious example is the [Lv16] level [Freeze] spell. With the blessing of [Meditation], Ankai has mastered 99 variations.

Stepping out of the cave, An Kai's mind stirred, and a deep blue [Freezing Spell] enveloped him, making him appear from a distance like a cloud of black mist, obscuring his figure.

After being enveloped, the sweltering heat disappeared, and Ankai felt as if he were inside an icebox, experiencing unparalleled comfort in this desert.

At the same time, now that the freezing spell has materialized, its hardness has increased again.

Ankai conducted an experiment; even using half his strength with the [Brute Force Staff], he couldn't break the [Freeze Spell]...

This elevates his personal safety to a new level.

[Frozen Technique] In addition to a variety of defensive methods, it also has various weapon forms.

This gave An Kai more room to use his brute strength.

Of course, it's still a bit behind the [Lv16] [Fireball] spell.

The Fireball spell, which was once only half the size of a palm and emitted a pale yellow flame, has now been completely transformed in Ankai's hands.

Roar…

Just as An Kai stepped out of the cave, a low growl came from the shore of the lake to his left...

With a thought, An Kai summoned a fireball spell in his hand.

With a diameter of over 3 meters, its dark yellow surface was so deep that the yellow glow was barely visible without close inspection. The temperature was astonishingly high; the air around the [Fireball] spell visibly distorted due to the intense heat…

Holding the [Fireball] spell high, An Kai's mind raced, and he swung it out from his hand!

In an instant, the [Fireball] spell transformed into a streak of light and hurtled rapidly toward the shore of the lake.

boom!

After a loud bang, the lakeshore suddenly turned into a hot spring, with wisps of white steam rising into the air.

A pit nearly 10 meters deep appeared on the spot, causing lake water to pour into it…

Having done all this, Ankai silently chanted in his mind, using [Summon]...

A six-pointed star array floated beneath their feet, and dense magical elements gathered around them!

A dazzling light flashed...

[Guardian Tree Spirit: Lv16]

Standing nearly five meters tall, its body gleaming with a dark brown sheen, a youthful face peeked out from the very center of the tree trunk, its gaze gentle as it looked at An Kai…

"Go and see if there are any magic cores."

As soon as An Kai finished speaking, the Guardian Tree Spirit transformed into a shadow and rushed towards the lake shore.

Despite its bulky appearance, it is surprisingly fast.

Ankai was still somewhat disappointed as he watched the departing [Guardian Tree Spirit].

[Summoning] I don't know what's gotten into me, I've leveled up so many times, and all my summons are just trees and grass...

There's simply no way to start eating it!

If Ankai weren't so wealthy, they would have given up on [Summoning] long ago...

Although the summoned creatures are getting stronger and stronger, what use are they to Ankai?

Could even the strongest withstand a punch from this physically weak mage?

The answer is no.

Therefore, for Ankai, there is only one criterion for judging whether a summoned creature is useful:

Edible = Useful; Inedible = Useless.

Even summons of "Fine" quality are evaluated using the same criteria...

A minute later, the Guardian Tree Spirit returned, looking at An Kai with an embarrassed expression on his youthful face…

"No? You piece of trash."

The guardian tree spirit lowered its eyes, looking at the ground, not daring to meet An Kai's gaze...

Ankai initially intended to kill the Guardian Treant with a single blow, but considering his need to continue his journey, he decided to spare its life…

Without An Kai saying a word, the Guardian Tree Spirit understood and lowered its body, prostrating itself at An Kai's feet.

An Kai lightly stepped onto the treetop, and before he could give any instructions, the Guardian Tree Spirit manipulated the canopy to create a seat large enough for him to lie down on…

"Getting it right." With a word of praise, An Kai reclined in his chair, patting it lightly to signal the [Guardian Tree Spirit] that they could continue their journey.

Upon receiving the order, the over five-meter-tall Guardian Treant, carrying Ankai on its head, headed towards the first orc settlement that Ankai had already scouted out…

...

[Public beta countdown: 9996 years.]

During the journey, An Kai was bored and glanced at the main storyline in the system. Apart from a time and information about him being the first boss, there was nothing else.

Every time An Kai sees a main storyline quest, he frowns.

Having played the game before, he knew that these players, as long as you had a health bar in their eyes, would find a way to whittle you down...

During his seclusion, Ankai did more than just think about how to cause trouble for the Town of the Dead and the City of Chaos.

Sometimes he also thinks about the main storyline.

Although there seems to be plenty of time.

However, An Kai knew that it was not appropriate for him to continue fighting alone.

Not only is resource gathering troublesome, but ten thousand years later, dealing with players alone will also be a problem.

Therefore, An Kai had the idea of ​​taking over a force, but it was impossible for him to put in the effort to cultivate it.

In this desert, Ankai's first target was Chaos City.

In this lawless area, where everything is well-developed and where villains congregate, he wouldn't hesitate to kill his subordinates out of pity if they made mistakes.

Furthermore, Chaos City is home to many talented individuals, making it a good place to acquire resources.

Although the shortage of animal meat prevented Ankai from continuing his seclusion, this time he emerged from seclusion, it was also a preparation for him to try something new.

Instigate a war between the orcs and the inner city of Chaos City, and take the opportunity to seize control of the four major gangs in the outer city of Chaos City, in preparation for later upgrading to the fifth tier and taking over the entire Chaos City...

If things are beyond his control, An Kai will not force the issue. At worst, he will not take over the four major gangs, but will take advantage of the chaos to seize some bounty towers and return to the mage tower for seclusion.

He'll make his plans after he emerges from the mage tower; in short, he's got his eye on Chaos City…

Of course, after taking over the four major gangs, they will eventually choose to seize some bounty towers. An Kai has been eyeing those bounty towers for a long time...

While thinking about the problem, I refined the plan.

Ankai sat in the canopy of the Guardian Treant and arrived at the first orc settlement he had marked.

There is one person at the eighth level of the second tier, one person at the ninth level of the second tier, one person at the tenth level of the second tier, and 16 people below the eighth level of the second tier, as well as more than 200 people below the second tier. This is the information that An Kai had previously investigated.

Jumping down from the treetop, Ankai stood atop the sand dune, at the base of which lay the orc settlement.

He sneered and instantly activated the [Armor Spell], causing a two-and-a-half-meter-long jet-black armor to materialize.

Both feet, both legs, and both hands were successfully depicted, with exquisite black and gold patterns running through them.

Ankai pulled out the [Brute Force Staff] and leaped down from the top of the sand dune!

During the advance, one after another, massive, dark yellow fireballs were hurled by Ankai at the orc settlement below…

It was overwhelming, leaving no time to breathe.

The leading orc, at the second tier, level ten, only had time to shout, "Enemy attack!"

It was then engulfed by a terrifying fireball spell…

...

Half an hour later.

Ankai stood on the only surviving orc in this orcish settlement.

"You dare to oppose Chaos City? Who gave you the audacity?!"

A gentle breeze blew by, and An Kai, whose figure was shrouded in black robes, revealed a section of white bone fingers on his left hand.

Just then, the orc being stepped on by Ankai saw it…
