Chapter 27 Monster Riot
Chapter 27 Monster Riot
"What should we do next?"
"Should we turn the werewolf's corpse into extraordinary equipment, or keep these two rather unique and bloody pieces of equipment?"
Zhang Changsheng looked at the werewolf corpse on the ground and thought to himself.
"Let's keep it. I don't lack equipment at Tier 2."
"Judging from the effects, these two pieces of equipment do not seem to only work on first and second-tier monsters; they may also work on higher-tier monsters."
"After all, demons who can be called lords in the abyss are generally demigods, or even lower-level gods."
"This kind of equipment bestowed by a powerful being should be effective against monster materials below the level of demigod, and at the very least, it should be effective against those below the level of legendary."
"Based on the information I have, extraordinary equipment of level 6 or above cannot be easily crafted."
"Only a few true dwarven masters and legendary blacksmiths can forge equipment of the seventh tier and above."
"And it's practically impossible to find these blacksmiths to forge equipment."
"There are too few blacksmiths and too many people who want to forge equipment. Unless I am a legendary powerhouse, it is impossible for them to forge equipment for me."
"But if I were a legendary powerhouse, I wouldn't even look at tier 7 equipment."
"Therefore, I can save these two special bloody pieces of equipment until my strength breaks through to the seventh rank, and then forge two seventh-rank equipment pieces."
With that thought in mind, Zhang Changsheng put the bloody equipment he had just acquired into his spatial ring.
Then, manipulate the spatial ring to consume all the extraordinary materials on the werewolves.
After consuming these extraordinary materials, Zhang Changsheng's spatial ring's storage space reached 200 cubic meters.
"White Dragon, let's go."
After returning all his battle pets to his battle pet space, Zhang Changsheng rode the white dragon toward the noble castle.
As the saying goes, if you're going to do something, you might as well go all the way. If you can get two or three more pieces of bloody equipment, you'll make a fortune.
call!
The Rain Mist Eagle transformed into mist to clear a path for Zhang Changsheng, and they soon arrived at the castle.
With the help of the Rain Mist Eagle, Zhang Changsheng checked everyone in the castle again and found no monsters of the third tier or higher, only some second-tier werewolves and first-tier werewolves.
As for ordinary people, none were seen; they were probably all dead, becoming sacrifices in a blood ritual.
"Clouds move! Rain falls!"
Under Zhang Changsheng's command, Rain Mist Eagle used the spells Cloud Travel and Cloud Spread.
A thick white fog enveloped the entire castle, and a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.
"roar?"
"What's going on? Why is the fog so thick? Be careful, it might be a spell!"
A second-tier werewolf looked at the increasingly thick white fog in front of him and spoke loudly.
"Be careful,"
Another second-tier werewolf also spoke up and sniffed, but the smell of the rainwater affected his sense of smell.
"Light Shield!"
The moment Zhang Changsheng rode the white dragon onto the city wall, he raised his hand and struck out with a palm, using the second-tier spell he had just acquired not long ago, Light Shield.
boom!
A gigantic, house-sized phantom of a palm of light appeared, instantly turning the two werewolves in front of it into a bloody mist.
Meanwhile, taking advantage of the fog, the Shadow Tiger continued to launch attacks, assaulting the Tier 1 werewolves.
With overwhelming strength, Shadow Tiger can basically kill these Tier 1 werewolves instantly.
Meanwhile, Ignis, Hikari, and the others also launched an attack.
The fog obscured the werewolves' vision, but Zhang Changsheng and his battle pet could see much more clearly thanks to the shared vision of the Rain Mist Eagle, as if they had a full-map cheat.
Ten minutes later, all the werewolves in the castle were killed by Zhang Changsheng and his battle pets.
"It's a pity there aren't any new monsters, otherwise we could have obtained new spells and attribute points."
After shaking his head regretfully, Zhang Changsheng began cleaning up the battlefield, hoping to find new bloody equipment.
At the same time, use the spatial ring to devour the extraordinary materials on the werewolf's corpse.
"Come! Come! Come to me!"
A voice, full of temptation, rang in Zhang Changsheng's ear as it drew nearer.
The moment he heard the sound, Zhang Changsheng's pupils contracted, and all sorts of stories about demons tempting mortals flashed through his mind.
"White Dragon!" Zhang Changsheng shouted, summoning the White Dragon before mounting it and galloping away without hesitation.
Seeing Zhang Changsheng run away so decisively, the owner of the voice hesitated for a moment, somewhat incredulous.
"Damn mortal! Damn coward! Where are you going!"
An angry roar rose from the blood sacrifice array, and a blurry, tall figure appeared on the array.
Unfortunately, the power of the blood sacrifice was insufficient, and the blurry figure could not stop Zhang Changsheng from leaving, except for roaring.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have allowed Zhang Changsheng to kill werewolves.
Hearing the roar behind him, Zhang Changsheng ran even faster.
"Why does this world seem to have so many problems? The ghouls are problematic, and now we've run into a demon while trying to catch a werewolf."
"No wonder the magic newspaper is full of news about monsters attacking cities, demons being born, and gods saving people every day."
"There are gods in this world. If there were no gods, the people in this world wouldn't even be enough for monsters and demons to play with."
Zhang Changsheng complained inwardly, feeling even more fortunate that he had acquired the Rain Mist Eagle, a detection battle pet. Without the Rain Mist Eagle, he might have accidentally run into a powerful demon or monster.
After running for dozens of kilometers, Zhang Changsheng finally slowed down a little.
"What should we do next?"
"If I report the death of a nobleman in the manor, I might be framed."
"But if we don't report it, we'll also be blamed."
Speechless, stubborn and inflexible.
"If this problem isn't solved, we'll likely be placed on a magic wanted list, and even if we try to develop in other cities, we'll still be hunted down by the kingdom's guards."
"Unless I go abroad and go to other countries, but with my abilities, I simply don't have the capacity to go abroad quickly."
"If only there were a teleportation spell."
Zhang Changsheng pondered while simultaneously making sarcastic remarks.
"My bone assembly technique allows me to disguise myself and shrink my bones, giving me a slight disguise."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng pinched his face and swayed his body, his appearance completely changing.
"In that case, the original card can't be used anymore, but luckily there wasn't much money left, so it's not a big loss."
After shaking his head, Zhang Changsheng suddenly thought of a question: prophecy magic.
"Although I can change my appearance and body shape, if the city lord of Black Dragon City asks those high-level wizards to use prophecy spells..."
"It's very possible that they can predict my location and then use a magical tracking map to lock onto me."
"By then, changing its appearance won't make a difference."
"It seems we still have to go back to Black Dragon City."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng turned his horse around and headed towards Black Dragon City.
Zhang Changsheng didn't walk fast because he needed time to think about what to do next.
"I still don't want to go back to Black Dragon City. If the Adventurers' Guild is unfair, I'll probably be locked up in jail, or even killed on the spot."
"The risk is too high, forget it, forget it."
"Rather than entrusting my life to someone else, I'd rather take a gamble. If they really want to hunt me down, then we'll see who lives and who dies."
"At my growth rate, I'll grow up quickly. If all else fails, I can just run to the wilderness and live among monsters."
With that thought in mind, Zhang Changsheng turned his horse around again and headed towards the Black Dragon Mountain Range.
The Black Dragon Mountains are home to a large number of monsters, stretching for thousands of kilometers. Even adventurers dare not venture deep into them, only daring to loot from the edges.
The Black Dragon Mountains were once the territory of a legendary black dragon. Although with the death of the black dragon, many monsters either left or died.
However, there are still a large number of monsters, making it impossible for ordinary adventurers to venture deep into the area.
Zhang Changsheng believed that the city lord of Black Dragon City would not go to great lengths to hunt him down for a minor nobleman; at most, he would send out a second- or third-tier squad.
Once he reaches the Black Dragon Mountains, these people certainly won't dare to chase after him.
"Strength, strength. If I were strong enough, I wouldn't have to worry about killing nobles at all."
"Even if you did kill him, so what?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng felt an even greater desire for strength.
At the same time, on the other side, Ella Diaz, the leader of the Blood Eagle Gang, looked at her subordinates and asked, "How's it going? Have you found out anything about that person?"
"Judging from the direction of the hoofprints, that person went to Black Dragon City or Bingma Town."
The young man, dressed as an assassin, spoke respectfully.
"Then we'll split into two groups. You take one team to Bingma Town, and I'll take the rest to Heilongchang. The sooner the better."
Ella Diaz thought for a moment and then said,
"good!"
The young man nodded and led a group of people away.
In Ella Diaz's view, Zhang Changsheng was just a first-tier wizard, while his subordinates were third-tier assassins, and he also had a team of first and second-tier assassins, so there was no problem at all.
……
Around 11 p.m., Zhang Changsheng suddenly stopped and did not continue riding the white dragon.
The reason they stopped was that, in the vision transmitted by the Rain Mist Eagle, there were more than a dozen groups of adventurers fleeing for their lives, with monsters stretching as far as the eye could see behind them.
It's not just ordinary monsters; there are first-tier, second-tier, and even fourth-tier monsters.
"What's going on? Why are the monsters from Black Dragon Mountain rushing out? Is this the legendary monster siege?"
Zhang Changsheng was a little numb. He had just planned to go to the Black Dragon Mountains, and then something went wrong there. Wasn't this just ridiculous?
"Never mind, never mind."
Zhang Changsheng turned his horse around and changed direction. Since he couldn't go to the Black Dragon Mountains, he would go somewhere else.
Several hours later, Zhang Changsheng stopped, his face grim, because a large number of monsters were also chasing and intercepting him from his direction.
"Is the monster army going to surround Black Dragon City and kill all the humans around it?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng changed direction again, and this time, just as he expected, there were monsters in his direction as well.
"It seems we have no choice but to return to Black Dragon City first."
Zhang Changsheng sighed softly and headed towards Black Dragon City.
As Zhang Changsheng rode the white dragon toward Black Dragon City, he pondered in his heart.
"However, in that case, news of the nobles' affairs should not reach Black Dragon City in the short term."
"Moreover, as long as I don't say anything, the city lord of Black Dragon City might think that the nobleman is likely to have died at the hands of the monster army."
"As for after the monster army retreats, I will have broken through to at least the third or even fourth tier, and by then I will no longer be afraid of the city lord of Black Dragon City."
"Although Black Dragon City is more prosperous than Iron Furnace City, the strength of the top experts is about the same, all at the fourth level."
"Grand Province is ultimately the most remote province of the Golden Dragon Empire, and there are very few strong individuals."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changsheng's worries disappeared.
When Zhang Changsheng arrived in Black Dragon City, he found that the usually lazy guards were now all standing on the city walls with great vigilance, each wearing steel armor, and the city gates were closed.
Furthermore, a large number of adventurers had gathered at the city gate.
"Damn it, why aren't you opening the door yet?"
"If the monster army comes, we will all die."
An adventurer shouted angrily,
"Open the door now! Otherwise, we'll storm it. You guys can't stop us with your numbers!"
A tall, burly man brandished a large knife and said with great dissatisfaction.
Hearing the adventurers' shouts, the captain of the guards on the city wall wiped the sweat from his brow and said very politely, "Brothers, it's not that I don't want to open the gate, it's the city lord's order."
"If I open the city gates without the city lord's orders, I will be beheaded. Please forgive me."
"I have already informed the city lord of this matter, and he will issue the order soon. The gate will definitely be opened for everyone."
"The monster army hasn't arrived yet, so everyone should stay calm."
"That's right, brothers, don't worry too much. My scouting spells tell me that the monster army is still far away."
A middle-aged man dressed in an army wizard uniform spoke up, offering a similar reassurance.
Zhang Changsheng paid no attention to the arguments; the monster army was still far away, so there was no rush.
If the monster army arrives, just force your way into the city; there's no need to waste time talking.
Anyway, he has a flying battle pet, so this city wall can't stop him.
Amidst the noisy shouting and cursing, the city gates swung open a moment later, and the adventurers surged into the city like a crowded school of fish.
After entering the city, Zhang Changsheng thought for a moment and then headed towards the Adventurers' Guild.
"Hello, is there anything I can help you with?"
Zhang Changsheng sat down in front of a white-haired girl. As for the dragon girl Huo Yun, she had already gone home after get off work, and another receptionist took over.
"I took on a task during the day, and I've already completed it. Take a look."
"The mission says there's only one Tier 2 werewolf and a few Tier 1 werewolves."
"But in reality there are 8 Tier 2 werewolves and more than 40 Tier 1 werewolves."
"It took my team and me a long time to take them down."
As Zhang Changsheng spoke, he handed over the magic map in his hand.
"what!"
"Is the margin of error in the task really that large?"
The girl took the magic map with some surprise, and was even more astonished when she saw the dense monster markings on it.
She hadn't expected Zhang Changsheng to be telling the truth.
"A total of 8 Tier 2 animals and 45 Tier 1 animals, for a total of 12500 gold coins and 12500 points."
After calculating, the girl transferred more than 1 points and gold coins to Zhang Changsheng.
