The Mage of Eternity

Chapter 73 - 73 Scouts from the Seven Kingdoms


73 Scouts from the Seven Kingdoms

Hanks saw this and stopped keeping him in suspense.

“This world of ours is called the God Punishment Continent. It is divided into five continents.

“It’s the four continents, north, south, east, and west, plus Central Continent.”

When An Kai heard this, he blurted out, “Central Continent is the most fertile place in the five continents, right? The Four Great Continents all yearned for Central Continent, right?”

Hanks paused. He confirmed that An Kai really didn’t know about these things.

But on second thought, Hanks could understand.

After all, An Kai was born in an unnamed town at the edge of the desert. It was normal for him not to have much knowledge.

The reason why he knew all this was related to his childhood experiences. Otherwise, he would be like most desert people and think that the surrounding countries were the centre of the world.

“Central Continent is not the most fertile land, nor is it the place that the four continents yearn for. However, it has a lot of nicknames: Forbidden Lands, Dead Lands, Exile Lands!”

Hanks seemed to have noticed An Kai’s confusion and continued to explain, “Legend has it that the Central Continent is a punishment from the gods!”

An Kai fell silent when he heard this somewhat silly explanation.

However, Hanks’ words matched An Kai’s memories from his previous life. God did exist in this world.

” As for the Four Great Continents, most of us humans occupy the East Continent. The East Continent is also tacitly recognized as the habitat of us humans. The land here is fertile.”

An Kai looked at Hanks. When he heard the word ” fertile land,” he felt that Hanks was trying to trick him.

Hanks noticed the strange look in An Kai’s eyes and explained, “That… The place we’re at is a little exception…

“However, the East Continent is indeed the most fertile land in the Four Great Continents and the most suitable place to live.”

An Kai stood up and picked his ears, signalling Hanks to continue.

“The East Continent is divided into five regions. Our current place happens to be the most barren land among the five regions, the Desolate Region.”

The scorching temperature hit and even the occasional wind was boiling hot. In the endless desert, only yellow was eternal.

Desolate Region was indeed worthy of its name.

“And then, what does this have to do with those orcs?”

An Kai looked at the sand dune about 300 meters away from him and saw an orc sneaking his head out.

Frost condensed in his hand, and a spear appeared in An Kai’s hand.

He aimed at the orc 300 meters away and threw it out.

The spear flew into the air, and under the powerful spell control of An Kai’s [Meditation], the spear turned into palm-sized [Frost] blades that filled the sky.

In an instant, their speed increased as they rushed towards the orc, who thought he was hiding well.

The blade cut into the orc’s body. In just a moment, the orc was cut into a sieve and lay on the ground without a sound.

After tonight, the orc’s corpse would be devoured by the endless desert. As time passed, his corpse would disappear bit by bit in the desert.

Until one day, someone found his bones in the desert.

Hanks gulped, and his evaluation of An Kai’s strength increased by another level.

In the future, if anyone told him that An Kai was a Tier 1 Mage, he would rip that guy’s head off!

Slowly regaining his composure, he continued,

” The orcs lost the war and were driven to the Northern Continent more than a thousand years ago. That place is extremely barren and is accompanied by lightning storms all year round. The living environment there is very harsh.

“That’s why the orcs are always looking forward to returning to the East Continent. However, the orcs and humans are natural enemies, and their ideas have never succeeded.

“In recent years, the human race has been boycotted by many races. That’s why the orcs found some opportunities to enter our Desolate Region.

“Beyond the Buklin Duchy is the Northern Continent where the orcs are located. The orcs took advantage of the internal strife in the Buklin Duchy to interfere in the internal affairs of the Buklin Duchy.

“But the orcs know that the Buklin Duchy will eventually return to the hands of the humans. The orcs will not be able to take root in the Buklin Duchy.

“The desert area that we are in has become the most ideal target for the orcs.

“Not only will they not attract the attention of the human forces, but they can also use the desert environment to quietly develop. Although the desert environment is extremely barren, this is also a big improvement from the Northern continent!

“The orc army and Chaos City will definitely fight because Chaos City lord is the overlord of this desert.

“Even if they had to sacrifice Stage 5 orcs, they wouldn’t hesitate to attack.

“Using the sacrifice of Stage 5 powerhouses to exchange for the hope of the race returning to the East Continent, to the orcs, this is a very worthwhile matter.

“In addition, the human race has suffered a backlash in recent years because of the previous incident. The various factions have no time to take care of themselves. Among them, the Dragon Knights are the most miserable. They are chased and killed by the dragons who love gold coins and gems.

“The seven countries around our desert also have their own troubles. However, the Buklin Duchy didn’t have enough resources, so it was the first to fall.

“In such an environment, no one is willing to deal with this group of foolish orcs.

“Unless we wait for those large associations to free up their hands, it will still be difficult to completely drive the orcs away from the Desolate Region.”

Hanks finished speaking in one breath and stood to the side. Although he said that this news was just a guess, it was actually a fact that the higher-ups of the surrounding countries had tacitly agreed to.

The orcs in the desert had chosen this opportunity. The humans could not even take care of themselves and were being attacked by the various races.

How could they have the energy to care about the Desolate Region of the East Continent and whether there were orcs in the barren desert?

To the major human factions, their bottom line was that as long as the orcs didn’t occupy a country, it didn’t matter.

After listening, An Kai understood.

Because of what had happened before, the human race was now being attacked by the other races.

This kind of plot was like a scumbag who pulled up his pants and ran away. Those women joined forces to find him and demand an explanation.

The orcs were like the scumbag’s love rivals. They took advantage of this opportunity to start stealing the stuff that the scumbag did not care about.

The information that Hanks gave was very different from what An Kai remembered.

In his memory, there was only one continent in his previous life.

Furthermore, ten thousand years later, the Archmage started the Twilight of the Gods and fought against many people alone. He was very brave.

When the game was announced, the slogan was “Farming, Upgrade.”

In fact, this was also true. When the players entered the game, they could only farm, level up, and fight for hegemony. All of the fun stuff was already completed by that old thing, the Archmage.

What the players needed to do was to wait for the Archmage to bring them away or for the big boss of their own camp to be beaten to death by the Archmage. Then, they would join the Archmage’s camp and be brought away by the Archmage.

Moreover, the continent at that time was not called “Divine Punishment”, but “Godsfall”.

There were still 9996 years until the countdown ended.

During this period, An Kai didn’t know what had happened. The five continents became one continent, and the Divine Punishment became the Godsfall.

An Kai did not need to investigate this. He was curious about one thing. Why did Hanks know so much about the orcs?

He also knew the details of the surrounding countries and the human race. This was more than what An Kai knew through the side quest.

Even though he knew that he shouldn’t pursue the matter too much, An Kai was really curious. After all, in his plan, Hanks was related to the management of Chaos City.

“Hanks, what is your identity?”

Hearing An Kai’s question, Hanks smiled kindly. “My identity is no secret now. After all, I’ve already tricked them.”

“Ahem, I was once planted in the desert by the seven countries around the desert… A spy.”

“A spy from the seven kingdoms?!”
