The Mage of Eternity

Chapter 52: Highly-efficient Seclusion

Translator: Lonelytree

Dawn.

Hanks was in a good mood.

He pushed open the door and was ready to see if Reid and his gang were still alive.

If they were alive, he was prepared to treat them.

The moment he pushed the door open.

He saw his old neighbour sitting at the door, leisurely basking in the sun.

His neighbour was a 30-year-old white-haired old man. The reason why he was young but looked like a dying tree was that this guy had gone on many adventures when he was young.

“Old thing, are you sunbathing?”

Hanks smiled and greeted his neighbour.

However, his neighbour did not curse him. Instead, he smiled and nodded.

Then, he gave him a thumbs up.

Hanks was stunned and quickly took out his detector.

[Stage 1, Ranki]

He confirmed that this was his unlucky neighbour.

He had thought that it was An Kai, that bastard.

No!

Hanks was shocked awake. That bastard An Kai also showed up as Stage 1, Rank 1 on the detector!

Hanks took a few quick steps and arrived in front of his neighbour.

“What’s wrong? Do you want me to teach you some techniques?”

Hanks smiled when he heard the familiar sarcastic words.

He finally confirmed that this was his neighbour. If it were An Kai, he wouldn’t have said that.

An Kai only knew how to mock him, which was different from his neighbour’s sarcasm.

“Forget it. You’ve never even touched a woman’s hand in your life. How can you teach me?

“Also, if 1 see your gaze on her again, I’ll dig out your eyeballs.”

Hanks patted his neighbour’s shoulder. His tone was gentle, but his words were extremely cold.

After being threatened by Hanks, the neighbour’s face turned red, but he didn’t dare to retort.

“Hahaha, remember my words, old thing!”

Hanks laughed and walked out.

Today, he was planning to go to the detector seller. He heard that he had gotten a new batch of detectors.

“Hey, old man!”

An Kai, who was disguised as Hanks’ neighbour, was relieved as he watched Hanks leave.

This time, the mask’s disguise was not exposed.

It was not a loss to exchange two gold coins for a residence!

Not long after, Widow Wang tidied up her sleeves as she pushed open the door and walked out.

When she saw An Kai basking in the sun, she gave him a kind smile.

As for An Kai, he hurriedly lowered his head and pretended not to dare to look.

Widow Wang chuckled when she saw this. She took another look at the white-haired neighbour that An Kai was pretending to be before she swayed her hips and left.

After Widow Wang left, An Kai continued to disguise himself for a while.

He returned to his room.

First, he checked today’s side quest.

Compared to the previous day, there were no changes. However, the Orc Army side-quest had a slight change.

[34: The desert orc army was attacked, and the 100-man team one kilometre away from Chaos City was completely annihilated. The orc general bribed the people of Chaos City and scouted the Rewards Building in an attempt to find the murderer!]

The appearance of the side quest made An Kai suppress the idea of going to the Rewards Building that day.

His figure changed, and his face turned into the appearance of a man with inverted triangular eyes.

He then headed straight for the chaotic city tavern.

Dressed in a linen robe and carrying a bone cleaver that he had just borrowed, An Kai, who had disguised himself, arrived at the first tavern.

“10 pounds of beast meat!

“If it’s done well, I’ll buy another 500 catties to take away!”

On this day, An Kai disguised himself in various appearances and appeared in various taverns. He was generous, and his words were quite forthright.

Every time, after he finished eating a dozen kilograms of meat, he would wave his hand and buy a few hundred kilograms of meat, arranging for the tavern to send it to his designated location.

These locations were all over the city.

After the meat was delivered, An Kai flattened them and put them into his storage ring before bringing them back to Hanks’ neighbour’s house.

In order to prevent the smell from spreading out, he even used a freezing spell to freeze the meat.

An Kai spent three days filling up this room.

Looking at the pile of beast meat in the room, An Kai let out a long sigh of relief. This food was definitely enough for his seclusion.

At the same time, he felt a little melancholic. The balanced development of his attributes caused his appetite to increase.

If this continued, he would probably be immersed in eating every minute and every second in the future.

As his attributes increased, how to solve the food problem gradually became an urgent problem!

“After 27 days, when I see Will, I need to ask him if there is a way to solve the problem of food in the inner city!”

After muttering to himself, An Kai used [Summon].

The Hexagram Star Array appeared, and magic elements condensed. A flash of light appeared.

[Bloodthirsty Rat: Level 12]

A half-meter-long rat appeared. Its eyes were red, and its body was covered in blood-red fur.

An Kai didn’t hesitate. A Frost sword appeared in his hand and pierced through the Bloodthirsty Rat’s head.

He skillfully skinned and cut open his abdomen, taking out a blood-red magic core the size of a finger.

He thought to himself, Exchange!

[Skill Points +2]

This was the third Bloodthirsty Rat he had summoned in three days. Including the one he had summoned today, he had obtained a total of two magic cores.

In other words, he had obtained 4 Skill Points.

A two-thirds probability of magic cores was not bad. If he could maintain this, it would be a good improvement for An Kai!

27 days later.

The hundred-square-meter house that was once filled with beast meat was now empty.

There was only some frozen meat in front of An Kai.

He meditated for 27 days without sleep or rest.

This gave An Kai 28 attribute points.

During this period, An Kai spent the rest of his time meditating rather than eating and doing the necessary things.

When he meditated, his mind became clearer and clearer. Even if he did not rest, he would not feel tired.

An Kai held the [Meditation Staff] in his hand. Currently, he only needed 21 hours to obtain an attribute point.

These 27 days of meditation were the most efficient An Kai had ever meditated.

Normally, seven or eight days out of 27 days would be used as rest time.

Perhaps it was because he suddenly heard that chaos city had an inner city, An Kai’s relaxed heart was lifted.

The 28 attribute points were evenly distributed to the four attributes.

An Kai stood up and let out a long sigh of relief. He looked at his upgraded interface.

[Level 1:10/10 Locked]

[Intelligence: 138 (Initial: 1)]

[Endurance: 137 (Initial: 1)]

[Stamina: 137 (Initial: 1)]

[Strength: 137 (Initial: 1)]

[Talent: Immortality, Mage Body” Lv2 “]

[Spells: Meditation Lvl 12 160/160, Fireball Lvl 12 160/160, Frost Lvl 12 160/160,

Summoning Lvl 12 160/160]

[Identity: Guide of the Wanderers]

He looked at the skill points he had accumulated over the past 27 days. He had already accumulated 157 points!

In the 27 days, there were only four summons that did not give him a magic core.

Compared to [Summon Lvl 11], the probability was much higher.

An Kai was very satisfied with the 27 days of seclusion.

He was prepared to head to Evergreen Gang and then return to the house and take advantage of his high spirits to continue meditating for another month!

Besides…

He needed to solve the issue of food…

He pushed open the door and passed through the courtyard.

He walked out of the courtyard.

Just then, Hanks pushed open the door with a frown.

“Eh? You old thing, you’re not dead yet?”

“Hanks, you look terrible. Did someone die in your family?”

” It’s you, kid!!!”
