64 Five Months Later

After entering the oasis, he walked for about five to six minutes.

He found a place to stay by the oasis lake.

It was a cave located on a small hill, and it was also the gathering place of the Desert Crocodiles.

They spent some effort to dig out a cave that could accommodate hundreds of them.

Today, they had encountered an enemy.

After An Kai checked the number of creatures inside, he laughed sinisterly. He held the Frost longsword in his left hand and the Brute Force Staff in his right hand.

Release [Magic Armor].

In order to prevent any [Desert Crocodiles] from escaping from this cave that was four to five meters tall and covered more than a thousand square meters, he even thoughtfully sealed the entrance of the cave with a Frost spell after he entered.

He had already cast five layers of Frost!

After doing all this, An Kai rushed into the ignorant desert crocodiles under the protection of his black armour.

Bang!

The Brute Force Staff danced in An Kai’s hand. With a smash, the head of a Desert Crocodile exploded.

The Frost sword in his left hand was not inferior either. With a slash, a Desert Crocodile’s head fell.

Against the level 8 desert crocodiles, An Kai’s every move had no technique to speak of.

It was all brute force.

Of course, the desert crocodiles weren’t just sitting around and waiting for death. They charged at An Kai.

However, their attacks did not cause any damage to the armour conjured by An Kai’s [Armor Spell]. Instead, they even broke a mouthful of their teeth.

They lay on the ground and whimpered in pain.

They waited for An Kai’s attack to land, praying that they would be killed by An Kai’s sharp sword and not that big iron rod.

It was better to leave their corpses intact in a situation where they would definitely die.

.

Half an hour later.

Inside the cave which was more than a thousand square meters, there were five things that connected the north and south of the cave. They were like clothes racks, and there were many hooks on them.

These ” clothes racks ” were made by An Kai using Frost.

Hanging on it was the processed headless desert crocodile, as well as the beast meat he brought from Chaos City.

In order to store the meat for a long time, An Kai had frozen it with a freezing spell. With this method of preservation, it would not be a problem for it to be stored for eight to ten years.

Not far away from the clothes rack made of frost.

There was a dark-brown work table that was about seven meters long, about five meters tall, and one meter wide.

[Beast Meat Refining Platform: Level 1]

[Rarity: Normal]

[Remark: Are you sure that the meat you ate has its greatest effect?]

An item worth 1800 gold coins was like a chopping board.

An Kai understood how to operate it by sensing its function in the system notification.

He took out a [Desert Crocodile] magic core from his storage ring and cut off a piece of hind leg meat from the [Desert Crocodile]’s body hanging on the clothes rack.

He placed it on the [Beast Meat Refining Platform]. With a thought, the [Beast Meat Refining Platform] began to work.

With a flash of light, the magic core turned into powder and entered the hind leg of the Desert Crocodile under the guidance of the [Beast Meat Refining Platform].

The powder was evenly distributed in every part of the hind leg meat in An Kai’s perception.

[Strengthened Meat: Level 1]

[Rarity: Normal]

[Remark: Even if you are a big eater, this hind leg meat is enough to fill you up!]

For the first time, a system notification about food appeared in front of him.

The appearance of the beast meat did not change. The biggest change was that the colour was brighter, and there was a fragrance coming from the beast meat.

At the same time, there was a faint layer of magic power fluctuation emitted from the surface of the beast meat.

An Kai immediately took the beast meat and skewered it with his [Brute Force Staff] from top to bottom. He then placed it in the fireball he released to roast it.

When the flames came into contact with the hind leg meat, a sizzling sound was heard. At the same time, the fragrance became stronger and stronger.

If An Kai hadn’t sealed the entrance of the cave with a freezing spell, the fragrance might have attracted the attention of the surrounding magical beasts.

Ten minutes later.

An Kai burped contentedly.

He had finally regained the appetite of a normal person!

A hind leg made him feel full. This was something that had not happened for a long time.

An Kai felt that [Beast Meat Refining Platform] might be a must-have item in the homes of some professionals who specialized in the physique.

His guess was right. [Beast Meat Refining Platform] was indeed very popular, and it was also one of the popular products developed by the Mage Association.

To the Mage Association, this bunch of idiots who only knew how to strengthen their physiques were the easiest to earn money from!

At the Rewards Building Auction, the [Beast Meat Refining Platform] was priced at 1800 gold coins.

But outside the desert, the price of this thing would double!

This was because in the outside world, there were more than twice as many professions that focused on strengthening the physique as there were professions that focused on increasing intelligence like mages and wizards.

Out of a thousand people, at most, one would be a Mage, while the rest would be a job that focused on their physique.

.

After eating and drinking his fill, An Kai used [Summon] and summoned a [Bloodthirsty Rat].

Without thinking, he slashed down with his sword. The Frost longsword slashed across the [Bloodthirsty Rat]’s body. Before it could seriously observe this world, its head was chopped off.

Then, An Kai skillfully skinned and cut open the abdomen, taking out the magic core inside.

It was placed in the same storage ring as the [Desert Crocodile] magic core from before.

In addition to the magic core of the Bloodthirsty Rat, there were a total of 73 magic cores in An Kai’s storage ring.

These magic nuclei were definitely enough to use the [Beast Meat Refining Platform].

Moreover, he could summon more.

At the same time, he had 851 skill points left.

He looked at the frozen meat that covered half of the cave.

An Kai took out the [Meditation Staff] with a smile on his face. He went to the west side of the cave and laid out some clothes. With enough food and clothing, he began his seclusion journey.

For the rest of the time, An Kai was immersed in meditation, summoning, and using the [Beast Meat Refining Platform].

Occasionally, he would attack and get rid of the uninvited or disturbing magical beasts.

When he was free, he would read the side quest and treat it as a short story.

Overall, An Kai’s life was very leisurely.

Although the efficiency of his seclusion was not as high as that of high-efficiency seclusion, it was still much more efficient than the previous long-term seclusion.

After all, the problem of food was solved.

All of this changed after five months.

.

Five months later.

On this day, a new demonic beast appeared outside the cave. It seemed to be courting a mate as it let out a strange cry.

An Kai was annoyed.

He raised his [Brute Force Staff] and was ready to go out and smash this stupid magical beast to death.

As soon as he stood up, An Kai was stunned on the spot.

In his right hand, the identity token that symbolized the [Guide of the Wanderer], the mark of the Rainbow Heart, appeared out of thin air.

It flashed and flickered, extremely unstable as if it was about to disappear.

An Kai counted the days and could not help but sigh.

“It seems like…You’ve really chosen this path.”

After exiting the cave, he stood at the entrance and looked in the direction of Chaos City. The mournful sounds of magical beasts courting each other rang in his ears.

“Have a safe journey.”

He chanted softly and raised his hand. A huge fireball appeared and instantly smashed towards the magical beasts that were courting.

Boom!

“Damned thing!”

After cursing, he turned around and returned to the cave.

Lying on the bed made of frost, he placed his hands behind his head and looked at the ceiling of the cave, his mind empty.

Today, he would rest and not meditate.
