Chapter 44: I’ll Cover You

Translator: Lonelytree

Reid scratched his head and replied with a silly smile, “Of course, of course.”

Reid once again witnessed An Kai’s terrifying strength.

At this moment, he recalled that he had once sought revenge against An Kai.

Thinking back, they were really lucky to be able to survive.

If An Kai had used this method back then, they would have been wiped out long ago!

Thinking of this, Reid suddenly realized that An Kai was definitely a kind person in this desert.

After all, he had chosen to hold back when he was facing them.

As for An Kai’s strength, it had increased during this period of time.

Reid had never thought of that.

How long has it been? Five years?

How could it be raised to such a level?

How was this possible?

Even that old thing, the Archmage, might not be able to do it!

Standing in front of An Kai, Reid could vaguely feel the oppressive aura of a superior.

On second thought, An Kai was very likely to be like Hanks and had a hidden identity.

Therefore, the aura of a superior was normal!

However, the truth was this kind of suppressed aura came from An Kai’s [Mage Body] talent!

[Mage Body Level 2] was a natural suppression of weaker mages.

With a thought, An Kai withdrew the aura of his [Mage Body Level 2] talent.

After experimenting and observing Reid’s expression, An Kai confirmed that his [Mage Body] talent indeed had other uses!

Little did he know that his actions had caused Reid to have some other thoughts.

“Are you going to continue courting death in the desert or choose to return to chaos city?”

“My lord! Let’s go back to Chaos City!”

When Reid heard this question, he didn’t even think and chose to follow An Kai back to Chaos City.

The desert was filled with orcs. If they were not careful, they might become someone’s food again.

An Kai stood up. Before he left, he first used the [Summon] spell.

He was prepared to summon a mount for himself. In such hot weather, he felt like sweating every step he took.

Although his Frost spell could make him feel like he was in a freezer in this hot weather, if he could ride, why would he walk?

The Hexagram Star Array appeared under his feet, and magic elements gathered!

With a flash of light, a new pet appeared!

[Stone Giant: Level 11]

[Rarity: Elite]

An Kai was delighted. He did not expect to summon an Elite-grade pet again!

The [Stone Statue Giant] at Level 11 was five meters tall, and its entire body was made of green stones.

Compared to the [Stone Statue Giant] at Level 9, it was almost twice as big!

He looked at Reid and the other three with an undisguised murderous look.

Only when he looked at An Kai would he return to calmness and reveal a gentle gaze.

As An Kai gave the order, the Stone Statue Giant knelt on one knee and lowered its head so that An Kai could sit on its shoulder.

After An Kai climbed up, he slowly stood up.

“Let’s go.”

He called out and walked towards Chaos City.

Reid wanted to remind him that they were being too ostentatious.

However, when he looked at the information displayed on the detector, he realized that the giant was a Stage Two Rank One summon.

He knew that his warning was unnecessary.

According to Hanks, a Mage who could summon a Stage 2 pet was at least Stage 3!

A Stage 3 Mage had no enemies in the desert.

Reid gulped and led his three companions to catch up with An Kai, who had deliberately slowed down.

Following An Kai’s instructions, he explained what had happened in the desert recently.

And what happened to Hanks?

In the side quest panel, An Kai only saw Prince Buklin setting up an orc army in the desert.

He did not know the exact situation.

After listening to Reid’s explanation, he finally understood the details of the situation in the desert.

A day later.

He looked at the orc team that had set up a checkpoint 1 km away from the entrance of the Chaos City.

An Kai’s nameless anger surged into his heart.

“Sir. How about… Let’s take a detour. 1 know a small path.”

Reid raised his head and carefully probed the stone giant.

He was afraid that he would use the wrong words and cause An Kai to misunderstand.

“We were forced to wander the desert because of our livelihood. Now, the foreign tribes are bullying us?!”

An Kai, who was sitting on the shoulder of the stone statue giant, looked very indignant!

He stood up abruptly as if he was really fighting for justice for the desert humans.

Reid, who heard An Kai’s words, lowered his head and shrank back.

An Kai’s sudden burst of justice caused him to be at a loss.

It was true that he was forced to wander in the desert.

But that was also because he was wanted by a duchy and had committed a crime, so he fled to the desert.

There were no good people in the desert!

This included Reid and the others. When they encountered a fallen noble, the first thing they thought of was not to save him but how much money they could sell him for.

“Reid! Tell me! What should we do when we are bullied by others?!”

“Run?”

” Huh?!” An Kai glared at him, and the [Brute Force Staff] appeared in his hand. It was flashing with a black light, and he looked like he was going to knock Reid to death.

“No! No! What 1 meant was, how dare these monsters didn’t run away when they saw you? How dare they?

“I suggest that Milord eliminate the evil for the people and enforce justice for the heavens! To uphold justice for our desert human races!”

Seeing An Kai’s fierce expression, Reid changed his tone quickly.

His words seemed to have hit An Kai’s heart.

He relaxed his body and sat on the shoulder of the [Stone Giant] again.

The three warriors behind Reid admired him from the bottom of their hearts.

If they were Reid, they wouldn’t know what to say.

“Reid, do you know how long they have been harming the desert human races?”

On the shoulder of the [Stone Giant], An Kai asked Reid.

“Sir, 1 don’t know the exact time. I estimate that it has been two to three months.”

“Two or three months? How much wealth have we lost?

“How many of us survivors in the desert have been harmed by this?

“Sigh!”

An Kai stood up again and looked at the orcs who were setting up a barricade not far away with a longing expression.

A sense of justice?

An Kai thought that he had it, but it was just a matter of how much wealth it required to invoke it in him.

The reason why he didn’t want to follow Reid was because the orcs were not far away. According to An Kai, they had been here for two to three months and were so close to Chaos City!

They must have accumulated a lot of resources!

Red! An Kai’s eyes turned red!

Thinking about how many unlucky people had been robbed by these orcs, his hands were eager to move.

As for the problem of whether he could deal with them…

An Kai had thought it through very clearly. If he couldn’t beat them, he would run!

After all, he still had four cannon fodders who could help him test the strength of the orcs.

“They have sown hatred between us by setting up this barricade. They are bad, and we will kill them!

“For the sake of our fallen compatriots, I, An Kai, will not stand idly by!”

On the shoulder of the Stone Statue Giant, An Kai stood up again. He held the Brute Force Staff tightly in his hand, and his expression was very righteous!

“Reid, the four of you go and lure those orcs over!”

“My lord! I…”

“Don’t panic! I will cover you!”
