The Mage of Eternity

Willingness and Forced

Unfortunately, Reid and the others’ thoughts were exposed by An Kai.

“You old man, are you out of your mind? Why are you keeping them?

“Can’t bear to kill them? Do you need my help?”

Once An Kai spoke, Reid and the other three buried their heads even deeper.

“This bastard!” Reid was terrified. He had never doubted that An Kai would him.

“Hey! Kid, stop teasing them. Tell me, what goods did you bring this time?

“The last time you left in such a hurry, your Sis Wang nagged me several times!”

Hanks walked up to Reid and the other three. He looked at An Kai, who was standing on the shabby carriage and smiled.

At the same time, there were some doubts in his heart.

Hanks had already secretly used his detector to observe An Kai when he appeared.

An Kai was at the first rank in the first stage.

Why was it that, in his perception, An Kai’s strength had far exceeded what he should have? Moreover, his strength was even stronger than the last time they had met!

Hanks couldn’t figure out what was wrong. If there was nothing wrong with An Kai’s strength, then there was only one problem.

Tomorrow, he would go to the shop where he bought the defective detector and rip off the head of the fat boss!

He dared to deceive Hanks?!

Seeing Hanks come to him, An Kai did not hide anymore. He put away his iron sword and jumped down from the carriage.

“I need the Sorcerer’s Stone,” he said bluntly.

“Your carriage is too shabby. At most, it could sell for one low-grade sorcerer stone.”

“Not enough!”

“Not enough?”

“Not enough!” An Kai nodded his head vigorously, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

Hanks understood An Kai’s meaning. After pondering for a moment, he pulled An Kai to the back of the carriage and blocked the two of them behind the carriage.

“Hunting or fishing?” Hanks then asked his question in the code used by the residents of the Unnamed town.

Fishing was the method used by Reid and the others. In the desert, it tested the temperament of the passers-by.

If he could resist the temptation, he would leave safely.

In the desert, countless people died every year.

As for hunting, it was simple and brutal.

It was commonly known as “robbery!”

This was also the method most of the residents of the Unnamed Town chose to obtain resources.

This method was extremely risky. If he were not careful, he would turn from a hunter to a prey.

As for An Kai, he had only used it once, and that time, he had encountered a guy who had backstabbed him.

Back then, An Kai had been there for a year and had never been assimilated.

In his heart, he still had his own morals.

The prey he chose was also an unpardonable person.

In fact, in this desert.

If he found ten people to be hung, he reckoned that only one would be innocent. And that was because the one was still new and didn’t have time to collude with the rest yet.

This place was at the border of many countries, and no one was willing to govern it. Therefore, it governed itself.

This caused this desert to become a true no man’s land.

Kindness was the stupidest thing in this world.

The only way to survive was to be hypocritical and cold-blooded.

When An Kai first came, he was not used to it. Because of his kindness in nature, after encountering three life-and-death crises… An Kai finally understood how to survive!

Hearing Hanks’ question, An Kai’s mouth twitched as if he was reminded of his past experiences.

If he were back at Unnamed Town, An Kai might have gone along with Hanks’ suggestion. But now that he was at Chaos City, An Kai wanted to find another way to earn money.

.

” Rewards Tower?!” Hanks was a little surprised after hearing what An Kai had to say.

In his eyes, An Kai, this lawless fellow, actually wanted to follow the rules.

This surprised him.

According to Hanks’ impression of An Kai, An Kai would be the kind of person to rob Rewards Tower.

An Kai had thought about it, but because of his strength, he immediately abandoned this idea.

He was reckless, but he was not stupid.

“Brat, trading with the reward tower is not easy to do. Practically, the whole city is filled with people who failed.”

Hanks tried to persuade him one last time.

However, when he saw An Kai’s expression, he knew that his words would fall on deaf ears.

“Alright, I promised you that I would help you. But first, do you have a membership card if you want to receive the Rewards Tower’s mission?

“Reid and the other three were a mistake. Normally, they wouldn’t be able to join Rewards Tower. I don’t think such a mistake would happen for another hundred years.

“Moreover, the reward without a membership card and the reward with a membership card are several times different!”

Hanks was like an old father, carefully explaining the things to take note of to the young An Kai.

Unfortunately, he had said a lot, but An Kai only heard one thing.

“Can the Rewards Building membership card be transferred?”

As if he had guessed An Kai’s thoughts, Hanks replied dryly, “As long as the transference is not forced.”

“Understood!”

Whoosh!

An Kai pulled out his iron sword and smiled as he walked to Reid and the other three with their heads lowered.

He pressed the iron sword against Reid’s neck, and a faint line of blood appeared.

“Are you willing to transfer the Rewards Tower membership card to me?”

The iron sword pressed against Reid’s neck. Cold sweat broke out in his heart as he hurriedly replied, “I’m willing! I’m willing!”

After receiving a response, An Kai didn’t hurry to withdraw his iron sword. Instead, he asked gently, “Did I force you?”

“No! No! I volunteered!”

Reid quickly responded to An Kai’s question. He was afraid that if he responded too late, this guy would pierce his neck with the sword.

An Kai heard the answer he wanted. He put away his iron sword and looked back at Hanks with a smile on his face. “Look, isn’t the problem solved?”

“Was it really voluntary?” Hanks was a little helpless. The way he was acting was indeed the style of a hooligan from the unnamed town.

“It’s voluntary!” An Kai replied gently, like a big brother.

Reid stood at the side, his head as straight as a rattle drum. “It’s voluntary! It was voluntary! Sir, I did all of this willingly!”

He had wanted to sell the carriage for two low-grade sorcerer’s stones, but Hanks suddenly stood his ground and said that it was only worth one.

One low-grade sorcerer’s stone was a drop in the bucket for the current An Kai.

However, it was better than nothing.

After the transaction, Hanks brought An Kai and Reid, who was willing to transfer the Rewards Tower membership card, into Chaos City.

Their purpose for this trip was the Rewards Tower’s missions!
