Chapter 224: Magic Lamp

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Vigilante A landed on the green grassland, and walked towards Landlord Liu with an expressionless face.

Landlord Liu did not dare to move at all, and only felt intensely uncomfortable. Could it be that his loud claim of credit was heard by the other party?

However, he was very clearly tens of thousands of meters high in the sky earlier, how could he hear him from so far away?

Was he about to instigate a falling out?

According to the rumors, this person was a great Pond-level master, he was much stronger than even their Duke.

As the host of this movement, Landlord Liu had high expectations towards the Duke of Cloud Fog City. Now, there were not many Pond-level Powerhouses in the world. The Duke needed to suppress one party, but could not take action personally.

If he failed, who knew just how much wrath and anger he would incur. Being replaced would be something within the scope of his expectations.

Pond-level masters were few in number, but there was a large amount of Basin-levels emerging. It was not as rare compared to half a year ago.

Grade B Extraordinaires could still be called masters in the past, because everyone still had not fully understood the ins and outs of the topic. They were all fearful, even Grade B powerhouses were already this frightening…

However, when the Dragon Clan benchmarks were released, everyone understood. Was it just a Basin-level? Three Bucket-levels would be enough…

That was the truth. As long cooperation was good, and specific preparations for the other party made, it would not be too hard for three to five Grade C Extraordinaires to beat a Grade B person.

However, that may not be the case for Pond-levels, as ponds are in the open and on the ground, symbolizing their connection with heaven and earth, and their ability to be able to transfer vitality endlessly from heaven and earth to fight.

If they were not cut off from the world, no matter how many Bucket-levels there were, they would still be helpless against a Basin-level Extraordinaire.

The same logic applied. The difference between Grade D and Grade C was extremely large. Even several dozen Cutlery-levels would not be able to fill one Bucket-level.

However, the distance between Grade D and Grade E was very little, how much of a difference was there between Cutlery-level and Mug-level? That was why it was not uncommon to see people jump ranks by killing their enemies between these two levels.

As Landlord Liu’s thoughts started to wander, he heard Vigilante A speak, “Earlier, you said you spent a huge sum of money to request me to act, did you not?”

His face immediately paled. As expected, he could not simply mention certain top-level powerhouses in public. They had telepathy even for rumors…

As one of the Landlords of Cloud Fog City, he had high authority, and could transfer large amounts of resources. He was much more influential than those Russian official’s governors or magistrates, and has always been looked at with envious eyes by others.

Right now, there were quite a number of Extraordinaires who were crowding around, watching. The Landlord Liu who had always been able to maneuver himself among various political groupings was currently hesitating to speak. He no longer had the demeanor he had in the past.

By this point, Lin Yuqing had already kept his jade sword. Seeing this scene, he thought of how Landlord Liu had always been respectful and courteous towards him. He wanted to step forward to put in a few words for him, and say that it was just a careless comment from the other party.

However, he reconsidered. What position and qualifications did he have to speak with the Venerable Dragon God?

His prestige when he was in the high skies earlier completely exceeded Lin Yuqing’s imaginations. His jade sword technique, before the Dragon God, was not worth mentioning at all.

As expected from someone with origins from a strong clan from the Upper Realm, as the density of vitality increased, his strength recovery sped up, slightly exposing some of his true potential. It would be hard to become someone like him even if he tried his entire life.

In the past, he was afraid of the name and power of Azure Mountain, and did not dare to associate himself with them. How would he have the face to attempt in forging a friendship now?

Vigilante A seemed slightly annoyed. His tone sped up again. “Now I have already acted. The huge sum of money you said you spent, I don’t see it at all…”

Lin Yuqing was Chinese through and through. Remembering Vigilante A’s

behavioral patterns, he secretly sent a telepathic message to the shaken Landlord Liu.

Landlord Liu was immediately relieved. ‘Tell me sooner, sh*t. I was scared stiff, we’re not pressed for cash…’

He immediately plastered a smile on his face, recovering his smooth and slick style from the past, and said, “I’m so sorry, the Venerable One’s Dragon Force was too abundant. Since I am below Grade B, it is hard for me to withstand it, so I was momentarily awe-struck. I hope the Venerable One will forgive me for that. The remuneration for the Venerable One has long since been prepared. To trouble the Venerable One to ask for it personally, it is the negligence of this humble one. I ask for the Venerable One to punish me…”

…

Landlord Liu, Landlord Yun, Lin Yuqing and his disciples watched Vigilante A, who rode on his flying sword and swaggered away. They exchanged looks and shook their heads with bitter smiles.

“This person was quite easy to send off, with just 300,000,000 USD, the Duke was also satisfied and immediately approved it,” sighed Landlord Liu, “Looks like I can invite him again in the future.”

Lin Yuqing shook his head, “He has always gone to and fro unfettered. He serves justice alone. He never intervenes in fights and campaigns between forces. The reason he acted this time was probably because he was worried that those missiles could be carrying mushroom warheads, since this place is only a few hundred miles away from China’s borders.”

Landlord Liu had his doubts, but he did not show his thoughts on his face. He secretly sent a telepathic message to Landlord Yun beside him, “Judging by his manner, I think this Venerable One is quite materialistic. I’ll pay this Old Man Lin. You hurry and ask for instructions from the Duke. Ask him if can invite that Venerable Dragon God to serve in court as someone from a feudal state. We’ll give him a large amount of worship and oblations each year. He won’t have to act in anything unless it’s important. It’ll be enough if he just acts in name.”

Landlord Yun naturally agreed. She had witnessed a genuine peak Pond-level Powerhouse’s abilities, and felt extremely awed and frightened, ‘That several meter long Azure Dragon flying high in the skies, represented human’s most advanced crystallized technology of high-speed missiles. In the eyes of low and mid-grade Extraordinaires like them, they could only flee in fear.

However, in his claws, they looked like mere toys. He dealt with them so casually…

If he were around, those Russians would definitely not dare to act rashly anymore.

The Cloud Fog City that she was located in was one of the ten large forces in the Siberian Wilderness, with the headquarters at the eastern common boundary between Russia and Guifang. It occupied a site of nearly one million square kilometers, and was used for planting vitality medicinal herbs and exploration mining for vitality minerals. Similar to the other nine large forces, they all turned a blind eye to the Russian officials on that land…

Russia had produced two Pond-level Powerhouses before. One was able to control a giant bear, while the other could control ice and snow.

However, the officers of Russia have always been mighty, so how would they harbor thoughts about treating these abnormal people equally in the first place, much less providing for them?

They chose to use force to detain their families, wanting to coerce the other into obediently listening to them. However, the only thing they accomplished was angering them, and after they massacred the supervisors and saved their families, they turned tail and left for other large foreign forces.

As fast as they could, the Russian officers sent out a large number of troops to get even. Those tens of thousands of elite troops, just as they set off, were intercepted by ten Pond-level masters on the railway. The end result was that they were all transformed into monsters, and then caused chaos in the core domain of Russia’s western hinterland.

Russian officials had expended countless effort and resources to solve the situation, and from then on they dropped their grand revenge plan.

In this half year, they lowered themselves and cooperated in researching and developing new technological weapons along with the western country, which had also suffered grievances by Extraordinaires, in order to go against them.

Today, a few people felt that their efforts finally bore fruit, and were ready to make trouble, but they were viciously handed a slap to the face instead. This time, they should have understood the principle that the only ones who can go up against Extraordinaires are other Extraordinaires.

As long as the party had someone like the Venerable Dragon God, the entire Siberian Wilderness, consisting of tens of millions of square kilometers of land, could only be said to belong to Cloud Fog City, as a tribute to them. In comparison, the oblations given to the Venerable Dragon God every year did not amount to anything much at all.

…

In the high skies above China.

The System said in satisfaction, “We didn’t go there for nothing this time, there’s another wave from the Truth Department after we go back. Just to capture and save those missiles, I made an impromptu decision to expand the System Space again. 30,000,000 Experience Points were consumed. The experience points we got when we farmed those ghouls are all gone.”

Fang Ning put down the novel he sneaked out and said, “In any case, we earned that for free, so it’s fine if it’s consumed. I thought of something. The Black and Yellow dogs went to the Land of Heritage for isolated cultivation nearly three months ago. We should go and check up on them.

The System sighed. “Ey, if you didn’t remind me, I would have completely forgotten about those two dogs. They’re the same as you. You’re basically useless, but ate so much out of my pockets…”

Fang Ning was speechless, “The Yellow dog helped you make reserves for your Morality Bar daily, how could you say it’s useless? You don’t have to mention my usefulness.”

The System replied, “That’s true, that Cang Gongzi gave me much more. Just a little hamster like it added five for me. The Yellow Dog only added one now, becoming three.

The progress is too slow. Zheng Dao can add another two more. Right now, my Morality Bars have increased from 45 to 50.”

Fang Ning said, “You want to advance the Atmospheric Morality Technique to

Legendary-level, and increase the numbers even more.”

The System said, “I need to save Experience Points as backup for that. That requires 1,000,000,000 Experience Points.”

After listening, Fang Ning did not want to nag the System anymore, and started to read the new system notifications.

The scene back then was really spectacular, with the Azure Dragon dancing in the skies, it stunned everyone present.

However, no one knew just how much strength the System had expended!

That’s wrong, it should be ‘how many Experience Points that the System wasted’…

System Notification: [The System consumed 30,000,000 Experience Points to expand the System Space. The East-West length is still 150 meters, but the North-South is increased from 100 meters to 150 meters. Height is raised from 15 meters to 30 meters.]

[The System has adjusted the position and area of the Preservation Area. Currently, the total area of the Preservation Area is 75m*75m, a total of 5625 square meters, and a total volume of 168,750 cubic meters.]

[The System acquired Hypersonic Cruise Missile. The items have been deposited in the Preservation Area.]

[…]

Fang Ning was speechless after reading it. The System really did not refuse anything… Everything could be preserved.

Vigilante A very quickly flew towards the China Truth Department Headquarters, as they could only enter the Land of Heritage through this place. If unnecessary, it would be better not to use the ‘Thousand-mile Assistance’ to fly to the Black Dog Brett.

However, Fang Ning realized that the effects were getting weaker recently. It seems like the Black Dog already recovered its power. It was time to switch to a new phone.

…

When the Masters finally remembered about the Black and Yellow Dogs, the dogs were currently at a nameless ravine in the Land of Heritage, both lying on the ground. The two dogs met each other’s eyes, staring intently at an oil lamp in the middle at the same time.

This oil lamp was an antique bronze tool. The wick on the side looked to have only just been ignited, but the lamp oil in the tool already running low.

The Black Dog Brett’s two eyes stared at the oil lamp, its tone extremely devout, “Magic Lamp, oh, Magic Lamp, please help me be able to marry a beautiful sister from the Spirit Fox Clan who is enamored with me.

The oil lamp trembled slightly. On the burning wick, a voice suddenly sounded, “Sorry, Mr. Celestial Dog, I can’t do anything on that lets someone become immortal. Your wish failed. Next, please.”

The Black Dog was stunned after hearing the words, and disbelief showed all over its face.

The Yellow Dog Xue Ba let out a ‘pfft’ at the words, “You retard. Didn’t you process your wish in your brain before saying it out? You even spent so many days thinking about it. If you want a pretty girl from the Spirit Fox Clan to like you, you need to keep on living to have even the slightest shred of hope. You wasted your chance. As per our agreement, it’s my turn now.”

The Black Dog was already in extreme depression, but he grew angry after hearing Xue Ba’s words. It bared its mouth into a snarl, his sharp canine teeth glinting coldly.

The Yellow Dog shrunk back at the sight. In the past two months, the diligently training Black Dog Brett already recovered back to Pond-level in the vitality rich Land of Heritage. However, it was only Basin-level, its position could not be guaranteed.

“What are you planning? I’m telling you, Master hates dogs that use their power to bully others. You better watch out.”

Hearing this, the Black Dog Brett shrank back and concealed its sharp teeth.

Only then did the Yellow Dog Xue Ba relax. It already thought of what wish it wanted, it was much smarter, after all.

This oil lamp’s magical prowess was amazing, but it definitely was not that strong. It had to ask for a wish that that had the highest possibility of coming true. It must not reach for something out of its grasp.

This was a treasure that they found in a corner of the Land of Heritage while they were strolling.

This oil lamp said that as long as it is lit, it would grant one wish. However, because the lamp oil was running low, it could only grant one wish.

The Yellow Dog could not beat the Black Dog. Seeing the two dogs finding such a great treasure, it was about to be forcefully seized away by the other dog.

It was suddenly struck by inspiration. After moving the Master, they made an arrangement, ‘We’ll take turns making a wish. You first.’

As expected, that one really committed a stupid mistake. It thought with its lower half again, and squandered a precious opportunity, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, at that.

The Yellow Dog then said, “Magic Lamp, oh, Magic Lamp, please restore my power to the state when I was at my strongest…”

The oil lamp trembled. The wick burned fiercely, the lamp oil inside the tool seemed like it was about to completely finish at any moment.

Afterward, a thick green light shrouded the Yellow Dog Xue Ba. Its body shuddered, and light shone from its eyes.

Before long, the Yellow Dog laughed jubilantly, “Haha, I’m back at the time where I was on the verge of a breakthrough! This place isn’t the Upper Realm, I’m sure there won’t be any inexplicable bottlenecks jamming my advancement!”

After speaking, it rose its body, and yellow light shot straight towards the clouds. Its figure suddenly swelled, and its majestic presence filled up the whole of the Land of Heritage.

The Black Dog Brett was struck disbelief. It looked up at Xue Ba’s huge body, and stuttered, “You… you… you’re just a weak dog who only knows how to read the entire day, how could you breakthrough to Lake-level earlier than me!”

A gigantic yellow dog almost a hundred meters tall appeared in the ravine. Its expression was prideful. It reached out its front paw and lightly patted the black dog’s

head.

“What did you say? Would you care to repeat that for me?”

The black dog lay on the ground and pleaded, “Please let me go. I said, your intelligence is unparalleled, unlike a black dog like me who is insatiably greedy. This heaven-sent lucky chance ought to be enjoyed by you.”

The Yellow Dog Xue Ba was extremely satisfied at the Black Dog’s response, “That’s more like it. Remember to perform your own duty well, and obediently be a good little brother. Work hard for Master’s behalf, and don’t just think about pretty Spirit Fox Clan ladies. They’re much more highbred than us, who knows how long it’ll be until they come down. Even if they come down, it’ll be me who woos them first, understand?”

The Black Dog said pitifully, “Yes, yes, at that time, I’ll let you woo them first.”

At this time in the Land of Heritage, those who felt this huge and strong presence were already in an uproar.
