"Is something wrong?"
Hanks pondered for a moment, then said with a sad look on his brows: "We are out of food in Chaos City!"
"Before, the city lord of Chaos City was here, and the seven surrounding countries had regular caravans going to and from Chaos City to sell food."
"Now because of the orcs, when the inner city was cut off, they also looted this year's batch of seven-nation grain teams and stored them all in the inner city."
"The next batch of food teams will not appear until a year later. By then, it is not certain whether they will appear because of this incident of being robbed!"
When Hanks told the story with a sad face that had bothered him all night, An Kai was stunned for a moment, and then laughed without concealment.
"Hanks, are you going to starve to death?"
Hearing An Kai's question, Hanks was stunned. He would definitely not starve to death because he had three years' worth of supplies all year round.
He shook his head honestly, not understanding the meaning of An Kai's question.
"I understand, Hanks, have you really replaced yourself as the city lord?"
"Are you confused? We are robbers, robbers, robbers!"
"Why do you care about whether they will starve to death?! What you have to care about is how many more gold coins they can provide us!"
An Kai's words made Hanks stunned and suddenly reacted.
Yes, he is a robber!
Why are you worried about the city residents running out of food?
"Hanks, as your friend, I need to remind you: the position of city lord outside Chaos City is a hot potato."
"Whoever sits in this position will be a thorn in the side of the desert orcs and the inner city."
"They don't care about this place at this time because they have no time to clone themselves. If you can calm down, believe it or not, the first one will be coming to the outer city of Chaos City to liquidate you, the so-called city lord behind the bullshit!"
…
An Kai's words silenced Hanks.
These words make perfect sense.
Looking back at this moment, the reason why Hanks replaced himself as the city lord should be the trance brought to him by this long-lost peace and the status of one person below ten thousand people...
Coincidentally, An Kai's words today woke him up.
"Get ready and tell them that the protection fee will be charged again in two months."
"Cherish this opportunity. When the outcome is decided between the desert orcs and the inner city, we will have to wander in the desert..."
An Kai patted Hanks' shoulder quite maturely, then easily jumped over the wall and walked towards his residence outside Chaos City.
Today he is not going to let Hanks parse the Shake Kingdom dialect. Something is not right with Hanks today, so it is better to rest.
He had long expected that the city outside Chaos City would run out of food.
When the inner city was cut off, not only did the people in the building with the reward disappear, but many vendors in the outer city of Chaos City also left with them.
Among them was the detector businessman that Hanks longed for.
Therefore, today's outer city of Chaos City will not only run out of food, but also slowly cut off everything...
But An Kai didn't care.
Just cut it off, what does it have to do with him.
If anyone dared to rebel, he would suppress them.
He doesn't care about the negative consequences of this, he will leave after a few rounds of looting anyway...
Without sufficient strength, forcefully occupying the only open city in the desert would do no good except attract hatred.
Moreover, in the desert, there are fifth-level strong men among the orcs and the inner city. In this case, occupy the outer city of Chaos City and become the lord of this city.
What's the difference between standing between two parties and calling them fools?
An Kai saw clearly how to deal with this kind of power at his fingertips.
This also has something to do with the fact that he has always been quite self-aware.
This extremely clear understanding of himself is one of the reasons why Ankai has been living a relatively comfortable life in the desert.
Not long after, Ankai returned to his temporary residence outside Chaos City.
First, I took a look at the side plot. Compared with yesterday, there was nothing different.
An Kai then took out the [Meditation Rod], held it in his hand, and started today's meditation practice...
…
Another two months later.
Ankai and Hanks reunited at the original headquarters of the Evergreen Gang, which is now the city lord's palace outside Chaos City.
According to the 28% split, Ankai received 2143 low-grade magic stones this time.
Compared with before, the income has dropped significantly.
This is also related to the large number of Chaos City residents fleeing.
But An Kai didn't care. After these guys went out and saw the changes in the desert clearly, they realized that only this city outside Chaos City could provide them with a moment of peace.
In the past two months, Ankai's retreat efficiency has not decreased.
A total of 48 attribute points were obtained, which he added to his four attributes in a balanced manner.
Among them, the [Intelligence] attribute led the way, reaching 293 points, and the other three attributes also reached 292 points.
There are only 72 attribute points left to break through the shackles of spell level. According to his current retreat efficiency, it can be completed in about four months.
In two months, An Kai's [Beast Meat Refining Platform] also made great achievements, only consuming the last 14 first-level magic cores and 3 low-grade magic stones.
Just satisfy An Kai's increasing appetite.
Compared with the 49 second-order magic cores obtained through [Summoning] in two months, this loss is almost negligible.
Returning to his residence, he poured out all the low-grade magic stones in the storage ring, counted them over and over again, and after confirming that it was the satisfying number 4969, An Kai held the [Meditating Rod] with a smile on his face and continued Meditation retreat.
Because the war between the desert orcs and the inner city of Chaos City is in dire straits, the outer city of Chaos City has now become Ankai's back garden.
Let’s not talk about who wins or loses between the desert orcs and the inner city of Chaos City. So far, Ankai has won...
It was also with the help of the two forces that the war started, and Ankai gained the long-lost peace.
It's just that all this doesn't last long...
…
A year and a half later.
As usual.
An Kai finished his training and looked through today's side plot, caring about his two neighbors and how the battle was going.
【1:…】
…
[29: The battle between the Desert Orcs and the inner city of Chaos City is tense. They are experiencing a shortage of supplies and have turned their attention to the outer city of Chaos City.
I originally wanted to send a few Tier 3 people to conquer the outer city of Chaos City, and make the residents in the city their slaves to help them collect supplies.
But before setting off, the twenty-eighth orc prince replaced the third-level orcs with two fourth-level orcs on the grounds of stability. If it were not for the fact that among the orcs, the fifth-level orc manpower general and the sword general were injured, the orc twenty-eighth The prince also wants to send a fifth-level orc to accompany him...
Set off at dawn and expect to arrive at the outer city of Chaos City in three days. 】
Temporary residence outside Chaos City, after An Kai saw this subplot.
Stand up suddenly.
Quickly put the [Beast Meat Refining Table] into the storage ring.
Then he ran out of the courtyard, and the fireball technique appeared, setting the courtyard on fire.
Run as fast as possible to the original headquarters of the Evergreen Gang...
The door was kicked open with a loud bang, causing Hanks to suddenly twitch while he was exercising.
In Widow Wang's disdainful eyes, she ran out of the room in embarrassment and saw An Kai standing in the courtyard.
"Hanks, it's time to run."
"We are destined to meet again!"
After saying that, An Kai turned around and left without leaving any trace...
In the courtyard, Hanks looked stunned, and then rushed back to the room: "Hurry up, pack up, we are going to run away!"
"Running away again? Hanks, you useless thing!"
