The Mage of Eternity - Chapter 98
98 Changes
“Hmm? Is that An Kai?”
Widow Wang said in a daze.
Hanks nodded with a bitter smile.
Now that he met An Kai, he couldn’t leave even if he wanted to.
No!
It seemed that with An Kai around, he didn’t need to leave.
“Let’s pack up. We’ll wait for him at the City Lord’s Mansion. Also, find the list of people who we have collected protection fees from in recent years.”

After recognizing who it was, Hanks didn’t hesitate and quickly put away the stall that he had set up for more than ten minutes.
In this increasingly hot weather, Hanks was probably in a hurry. After he put away his stall, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Widow Wang wiped the sweat off Hanks’ forehead and said subconsciously, “Why are you sweating?”
The speaker might not have the intention, but the listener misunderstood it.
Hanks retorted without thinking, “My body is great. It’s all because of this damn weather!”
“Alright, alright, alright. I believe you.” Widow Wang replied perfunctorily.
She grabbed Hanks ‘arm and walked into the city.
The two of them walked very quickly as if there was a magical beast chasing after them.
Vaguely, Hanks’ stubborn explanation was heard. “My body is really great. Believe me, I’m definitely sweating because of this damn weather!”
.
Outside the chaos city entrance.
“This damn weather is too unfriendly to me!”
Nurnisius, who was like a big black rat, was like a dog that had been heated up. He stuck out his tongue and panted heavily.
An Kai glanced at Nurnisius.
One day in the Mage Tower, plus five days in the outside world.
He had already figured out Nurnisius’ character.
Nurnisius kept calling him the mighty dragon… He didn’t even realise he looked like a big rat.
He was no different from the [Bloodthirsty Rat: Level 12] An Kai summoned before. Otherwise, apart from the difference in skin colour, the two brothers had basically the same body shape and appearance.
However, when he thought about how this guy could provide him with a [Fine Grade] magical beast every week, An Kai chose to tolerate it.
In five days, they had walked from the Mage Tower to this place.
It wasn’t that An Kai and the others were slow.
Instead, An Kai had four days to be a good teacher.
Standing at the entrance of the outer Chaos City, An Kai recalled his life as a ‘teacher’ for the past four days. He frowned, and his veins throbbed.
If it weren’t for the fact that Wayne’s future research would not only be beneficial to him, An Kai would have slapped this guy to death long ago.
In four days, Wayne asked 53 questions about the changes in An Kai’s [Frost] daily, a total of 561 questions.
During this period, not only could An Kai not stand it, but even Mason, a rank five assassin who killed people expressionlessly, took the initiative to find An Kai and apologize for Wayne twelve times.
Fortunately, a day ago.
Wayne said that his Wind Blade Technique had improved by understanding the changes in An Kai’s [Frost].
He only needed a quiet place to complete the further analysis and produce a result that would satisfy An Kai.
“Teacher, are we studying spells here?”
An Kai took a deep breath and then gently exhaled.
The current him was a little allergic to the words ‘spell studies’.
He glanced at the excited Wayne and nodded lightly.
He didn’t know where this guy got his energy from. He hadn’t rested for five days, but he was still in a state of high spirits.
“That’s great! In that case, I can finally make a breakthrough in my Wind Blade Technique research!
“Teacher, don’t worry. I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory answer!”
Wayne didn’t seem to see An Kai’s expression. He shouted excitedly, clenched his right fist, bent his arm, and made an encouraging gesture.
An Kai’s expressionless mouth twitched a few times.
“You’d better succeed in your research!”
He muttered in his heart and led Wayne and Nurnisius, who was sticking out his tongue, to the city entrance.
The reason why An Kai was able to answer Wayne’s 561 questions about [Frost] was that he had used skill points to increase his proficiency and also grasped a solid theoretical foundation.
He might not know much about the Wind Blade Technique, but the spells he had mastered, in terms of theory alone, no one in the entire desert could compare to him.
After all, no one would spend a lot of energy and resources to improve the support-type spell, Frost.
After entering the city, the outer chaos city wasn’t as lively as when An Kai first came.
However, there were already some people setting up stalls at the city gate.
Compared to those stall owners in the past, some of the stall owners now were still exuding a ” tender ” aura.
From their bashful attitude, not to mention An Kai, anyone else could tell that the things they were selling might have been tampered with.
Unlike those stall owners in the original chaos city, if you pointed out that they were selling fake goods or expensive goods, they would even pull you out of the city and help you choose a burial ground with relatively good scenery.
Shaking his head, An Kai continued to walk towards the Evergreen Clan’s encampment. He saw that old man Hanks running away quickly after seeing him.
His father came, but not only did he not welcome him, he even ran away?!
An Kai was ready to teach Hanks how to be filial!
“Old man, I have Legendary armour fragments. Do you want them?
“I think we’re fated to meet, so I’ll give you a discount!”
An Kai, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks. He looked back at the vendor on the stall and smiled disdainfully.
Did they want to scam him?
These outsiders really didn’t have good eyesight. Didn’t they see that the few peddlers outside the chaos city were so obedient and didn’t say anything when they saw him?
Sneering coldly, An Kai did not respond and continued walking into the city.
“Trash! You’re blind!
“How dare you use this kind of trash to trick my boss?!”
Just a moment ago, An kai had opened up a mental connection with Nurnisius.
In an instant, Nurnisius understood what to do.
His figure flashed, and with a swipe of his claw, he sent the items on the stall flying. With a gentle force, he knocked the peddler down.
Stepping on his body, Nurnisius had a fierce expression on his face. He bared his teeth and cursed at this blind new peddler.
“Lord, don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!
“I have elders and children.”
The few peddlers outside the city didn’t sympathize with this peddler, instead laughing at him.
In Chaos City, there was a saying the weirder one’s actions, the stronger one’s strength.
It was because those who behaved strangely and were weak had long been slapped to death by those who could not stand them.
An Kai’s current appearance belonged to the strange category.
He had an old appearance, and behind him was a young man who looked like a fool. Beside him was a big black rat that was walking proudly.
To be able to walk all the way from the desert and enter chaos city without panicking.
It was enough to show that these two people and one beast were powerful and confident.
As expected.
The new peddler who had escaped from the surrounding seven countries was easily suppressed by the demonic beast that could speak human language.
“Teacher…
“What’s the matter?”
Wayne suppressed the words he was about to say. He was thinking that it would be inappropriate to ask a question about [Frost] at this time.
An Kai brought Wayne to the Evergreen Sect’s base.
Behind them, Nurnisius stepped on the peddler arrogantly. In the end, he broke both of the peddler’s arms and ran back to An Kai’s side.
Running back to An Kai, Nurnisius was a little puzzled. “Boss, why didn’t you let me kill him?”
“Can killing solve the problem? Stupid.”
Nurnisius was suddenly stunned. What was going on?
Why was he suddenly scolded?
An Kai snorted coldly and did not explain further. Could it be that he was feeling frustrated because he recalled the four days of his ” teaching ” experience?
No. Pets were meant to soothe the mind. This was what Razor had said.
Along the way to the Evergreen Gang, An Kai could be considered to have seen the current situation at Outer Chaos City with his own eyes.
On both sides of the street, there were often residents who looked back three times with every step they took.
With this attitude, An Kai could easily recognize their origins. They were refugees from the seven countries around the desert.
– –
The few residents outside the city had the opposite attitude. They stood under the sun and looked at the cautious residents with a cold smile.
From time to time, their eyes shone with a fierce light as if they had made a decision.
An Kai wasn’t a saint, so he didn’t care if others lived or died.
He had no sympathy for these guys.
However, An Kai had other plans in mind when he returned to outer chaos city.
He was prepared to interfere with the lives of the people inside chaos city.
After all, they were his future resource suppliers!
Looking at the clean Evergreen Gang’s entrance, he thought, “Old thing, you sure know how to enjoy yourself!”
After muttering to himself, An kai took out his [Brute Force Staff] from the Mage Tower and walked into the Evergreen Sect.
There was one thing he needed to do before he could execute his plan.
That was to show Hanks, Reid, and the other current city lords of the outer Chaos City his strength.
Doing this was to facilitate the future changes in the outer chaos city.
They had not seen each other for nearly two years and had been sitting in a high position for a long time. It was inevitable that they had other thoughts.
An Kai understood all of this, which was why he was prepared to correct Hanks and the others.
When Nurnisius saw An Kai’s expression, he immediately understood what to do.
He quietly took a step back, worried that An Kai would accidentally injure it when he cast the spell.
Holding the Brute Force Staff, An Kai walked to the entrance of the Evergreen Clan’s encampment.
He pushed open the door and was about to flare up.
He saw nine large boxes placed in the courtyard.
Gold coins were placed in the box.
Behind the nine boxes was Hanks, who had a “joyful” expression on his face.
“Little Master! You’re finally back!
“I’ve been saving your share for you!
“Look, all the records are here.”
Hanks smiled and pushed out a 30-centimeter-thick account book in his hand.
This scene made An Kai retract his thoughts.
He put away the [Brute Force Staff] and revealed the joy of reuniting with an old friend. “Hanks, I missed you so much!”
