Master Changsheng

Chapter 72, Episode 071: [Heavy Armor]

Chaos City.

At the entrance.

Hanks returned to the same place with his family.

Gazing at the familiar entrance to Chaos City, he sighed, "See? So what if I was wanted? I still came back openly and legitimately!"

"The master is mighty!"

"The master is mighty!"

"The master is mighty!"

"The master is mighty!"

Reed and his three companions, as loyal slaves of Hanks, immediately chimed in...

"Hanks! I've had the worst luck following you! This constant wandering, when will it ever end!"

Behind Hanks, inside the carriage pulled by yellow horses, Widow Wang's loud shout suddenly rang out.

Upon hearing this, Hanks shrank back and said sheepishly, "I'm not leaving this time, I'm not leaving this time..."

"Hehehe... I have received reliable information that those foolish orcs are going to fight the Chaos City Lord to the death. The Chaos City Lord is afraid of being ambushed, so he has no choice but to cut off the connection between the inner and outer cities."

"So, in other words, there's no longer a ruler governing the outer city of Chaos City. With my second-tier strength, can I really do badly in Chaos City now?"

Hanks spoke with great confidence as he shared this information.

It was as if Chaos City had already become something in his hands.

Widow Wang scoffed at this, snorting and muttering, "I don't care, I just want pearl powder, otherwise my skin will age very quickly."

After muttering to himself, he peeked out and glanced at the entrance to Chaos City before returning to the carriage.

The fleeting glimpse of her face revealed skin as smooth as a baby's and a face without wrinkles...

Hanks, however, stared at Widow Wang's fleeting face as she lifted the curtain of the carriage.

"I could look at this face forever and never get enough of it..." Hanks murmured, his eyes narrowed, until Widow Wang called him to enter the city. Only then did he snap out of his reverie and softly command, "Enter the city."

Reed and his three companions kept their heads down, not daring to look in the direction of Widow Wang. Only after hearing their master's gentle rebuke did they breathe a sigh of relief. The four of them split into two groups and followed the carriage on both sides towards Chaos City.

Chaos City is divided into inner and outer cities, as Hanks had already explained.

Just as Hanks himself stated, Reed and the other three also believed that Hanks, at the second tier, was among the strongest in Chaos City, which lacked an inner city administration…

Thinking of this, Reed suddenly pictured a figure wielding a black iron rod, and muttered to himself:

"If the young master mage were here, we'd probably be living a much better life. After all, the young master mage is far stronger than the master..."

...

Most residents of Chaos City were unaware that the inner and outer cities had been cut off from each other.

All they knew was that the Bounty Tower had suddenly moved away from Chaos City for some unknown reason.

Previously, the Lord of Chaos City was in a standoff with the Town of the Dead in the outer city, so the matter of the inner city was no longer a secret.

Instead, it became public information.

Most residents are speculating that the bounty tower disappeared because it went to the inner city.

How could they have imagined that the Lord of Chaos City, after confronting the Town of the Dead, would be besieged by orcs and challenged to a duel?

Therefore, apart from losing the bounty tower and some merchants, Chaos City has not changed much.

The most obvious change is probably today.

The number of people entering the city today is several times greater than in the past.

And most of them look fierce and menacing, like they're not to be trifled with.

Sure enough, at the entrance to Chaos City, a group of men wielding machetes blocked the way, collecting "entry fees" from those entering and leaving the city.

At their feet, blood had already flowed like a river!

Hanks saw the commotion ahead.

He stopped his carriage to the side, not rushing forward, intending to observe the situation before making a decision.

Suddenly, Widow Wang lifted the carriage curtain: "Hanks, I'm dying of heat! What are you doing?!"

Suddenly, the entrance to Chaos City became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Hanks and his group were only about 20 meters away from Chaos City.

Most of the people gathered here are professionals.

His eyesight and hearing are much better than those of the average person.

Although the widow's appearance was not as striking as that of a princess like Sally Bucklin, who came from royalty.

But in the desert, the widow's appearance truly resembled that of the "Desert Princess..."

His mere, accidental appearance attracted the attention of many at the entrance to Chaos City…

A commotion broke out at the entrance. A monster, only 1.5 meters tall but 1.8 meters wide, wearing heavy armor and wielding a spiked black hammer as tall as himself, dragged along the ground.

Behind him were eight other professionals, the same guys who had just blocked the entrance to Chaos City and collected "entry fees".

The nine of them walked out, revealing the horrific scene at the entrance to Chaos City. Broken limbs covered the area, and there were also unwilling heads with their eyes wide open, staring at the direction of Chaos City, standing alone like ornaments at the entrance.

Among them, three lonely heads belonged to the leaders of the four major gangs within Chaos City…

The leading monster arrived in front of Hanks in just a few steps.

He stared at Hanks and the four ants behind him, and muttered, "Hand over that woman, and I'll let you die without pain."

"If you don't hand it over, I'll torture you to death like those blind fools!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, a stench of blood emanated from the 1.5-meter-tall monster.

[Third Order, Third Layer]

[Warrior Class - Heavy Armor]

The heavily armored professional standing in front of Hanks paid no attention to Hanks taking out the detector.

What he loved most was seeing his enemies howling in despair.

I escaped from the inner city for this very day. Why should those few insignificant second-tier ants occupy the vast outer city?!

He's only at the third rank, yet he's already risking his life for that damned city lord in the inner city?

Don't even think about it.

So, taking advantage of the time when the bounty towers were being cleared out of the outer city, he seized the opportunity to escape to the outer city with his men.

He understood very well that the orcs and the inner city were locked in a stalemate, and a great battle was imminent.

The outer city of Chaos City wouldn't attract the attention of either side, and this was the perfect time for him to show his skills!

Women, money, resources, power!

He wants them all!

As the heavy armor user pondered how to use the woman inside the carriage he had obtained…

Suddenly, a large number of indiscriminate fireballs attacked from the sky!

As soon as the fireball appeared, Hanks rushed back to the carriage, scooped up Widow Wang in his arms, and ran towards the back of the carriage…

"Run!"

Reed and his three companions understood immediately and without hesitation chose the right direction...

The heavily armored professional and his subordinates only saw their prey escape in a flash, and just as they were about to give chase, a barrage of indiscriminate fireballs suddenly descended...

"Wow! What's this code?!"

"Defend!"

A Tier 3, Level 3 Heavy Armored professional let out a loud shout, his armor connecting with his body, and armor patterns appearing on his skin…

Defense has increased significantly...

however…

Even so, faced with the relentless barrage of fireballs, the heavily armored warrior, after desperately resisting three, was overwhelmed by the fireballs...

The heavily armored professional who intended to dominate Chaos City, along with his eight subordinates, perished 20 meters from the city's entrance...

...

"Hanks, there are six of you in total. This life-saving favor is worth 2400 gold coins. Not much, is it?"

Hanks was holding Widow Wang, whose back had already been burned by the aftershocks of the [Fireball] spell, leaving her clothes burned off.

Looking at An Kai, whose strength was even more terrifying, he gave an awkward smile: "Not many, not many, definitely not many."

Hearing the sensible reply, Ankai was quite satisfied and put away the [Brute Force Staff] he was about to use to smash Hanks' head...

"Getting on track."
