Chapter 200 - Did You Pilfer The Empires’ Treasuries?
Chapter 200 Did You Pilfer The Empires’ Treasuries?
Both his space rings had been filled to the brim!
William examined the materials in the space rings for more than 30 minutes. When he finished, he had come up with an accurate count.
He found 12,000 sets of Intermediate Silver equipment and 300 sets of equipment with the Gold-quality or higher. A few equipment sets were taken from the military warehouse.
There were 2,100 sets of spare parts for the catapults.
And 300 heavy-duty crossbows with 1,300 sets of spare parts were also present.
He had 5,300,000 gold coins, 10,000,000 silver coins, and countless bronze coins.
He counted 46,500 pieces of attribute gems, 3,500 kilograms of mythril, 3,100 kilograms of orichalcum, and 2,600 kilograms of adamantine.
He also had other valuable magical metals that weighed not more than 1,200 kilograms.
Some of these materials were suited for constructing the teleportation portals!
Next, the rings also had a 23-meter long Water Dragon’s skeleton and 7 barrels of Dragon’s blood.
There was a complete dragon’s heart, but half of the high-quality blood in it had been used up!
Its quality was also Legendary, and it was on par with the Fire Dragon.
But since William did not find the dragon crystals, he was very disappointed…
“I suppose all the resources will add up to about 20,000,000 gold coins.” William tried to hide his exhilaration. He walked out of the cave and pulled the bushes aside. Then he looked at the sky.
He could not see any danger above him, but it did not mean that the Advanced professionals had left. Perhaps, they were only hidden from view.
It was because William felt an ominous sense of danger!
The fatal kind!
It was not a threat from Advanced professionals. It must be someone who was at least a Grandmaster or even Advanced!
It was not the right time to rejoice.
William had to ensure that he could return safely to the City of Dawn or Stormy Island.
He was preparing to break open a coconut to quench his thirst.
But suddenly, an unfortunate, sprawling on a wooden plank, was washed ashore.
William looked at the shipwrecked person and then at the firing warship that was about 1,000 meters out. He had an idea and threw away the coconut. With a single blow, he had killed the unconscious professional.
William wore the shipwrecked person’s clothes.
Then, he activated the few illusion magic scrolls that he had left!
Swish!
William had transformed into the shipwrecked person!
Even the scar on the throat and the beard on William were identical to the deceased.
“Bro, I’ll dig a grave for you. I’ll have to depend on you to escape.” William buried the corpse in a pit. Then he remembered something and cut the corpse’s belly with the Thunder Blade to create a few fresh bleeding wounds.
However, the blood trickled out slowly from the corpse.
“I should have let him bleed more before killing him…”
William had no choice but to use magic to extract his fresh blood. After a few seconds, William obtained a large pool of fresh blood. Then he drenched himself with the blood…
William looked like he was seriously wounded.
More importantly, his scent was completely covered by the stench of the fresh blood.
Half an hour later, the two warships did not intend to perish together. They tried to retrieve their sailor who had fallen overboard.
The blood-stained William was floating one a wooden plank when he was spotted by the rescue team.
“Oh, is that a survivor?” Two soldiers on a small boat found him. When they rescued survivors, they would search their bodies for some souvenirs.
“Let’s go and find out!” An elderly soldier replied as he glanced at the other soldier.
The two soldiers rowed their boat towards William.
The novice soldier poked William with the paddle.
“There’s no reaction. Is he dead?” The novice soldier frowned. William had too much blood on his body, and it looked disgusting.
The elderly soldier was more observant. He laughed and said, “He’s not dead yet. He’s still breathing, but he’s seriously wounded. Even if we save him, it will be a waste of medicine. Let’s look for valuables on his body before we leave.”
In the end, the two soldiers searched William for some time. When they were about to steal his ring, William lifted his head and grasped the arm of the elderly soldier fiercely!
At that moment, the elderly soldier noticed William’s fierce look and thought he was going to die.
He almost fainted from the fright.
Fortunately, William passed out in the next instance. But William maintained his tight grasp on the elderly soldier’s arm.
“MD, I yield. We’ll rescue you. Please release your grip.” The elderly soldier felt that his flesh was almost slipping off. William was very fierce and strong. The soldiers were suspicious of whether William was really unconscious, so they did not use their knives to cut off William’s finger.
They carried William up the ship.
Then William became unconscious, and he relaxed his hands…
“Gosh, I’m unlucky.” The elderly soldier frowned and left.
“What’s going on?” the novice soldier asked, bewildered.
“He’s pretending to be wounded… and he’s good at it. Almost as good as when I was young.” The elderly soldier was befuddled. Why did such a powerful person pretend to be wounded?
Three days later,
William left the sea area that had been surrounded.
He had pretended to be wounded in order to get onto the ship. Then he left discreetly.
Except for the elderly soldier who remembered William, nobody knew that he had left. All the wounded and dead soldiers were being piled together. The wounded soldiers had to endure until the ship arrived at the port, and only then they would receive medical treatment.
The elderly soldier was streetsmart, and he did not report on William. He only wanted to earn an honest living without creating any trouble.
Life was already hard. There was no need to create trouble and make life difficult.
He could pilfer from the dead instead of antagonizing a wounded person who could be a powerful warrior!
Two days later, when William returned to the area beside the dimension vortex.
He heard a loud and buzzing noise.
Ripples emanated out in all directions.
Meanwhile, a naked figure had been sent flying due to the shock waves of the vortex explosion.
He flew in mid-air and hysterically laughed…
“I’ve become an enchanter. I’ve finally become an enchanter. Hahaha… ha…” Old Band laughed and laughed. Then he stopped.
He noticed William…
William gazed at the naked body of Old Band…
“Oh, Prince William. When did you return?” Old Band waved, and he became clothed in a magic robe that accentuated his enchanter status.
“You’ve become an enchanter?”
“Yes. I became an enchanter by accident.” Old Band pretentiously nodded.
“Whoa, this is my first time seeing a naked enchanter. Your family heirloom is a bit small… hmm.” Before William could finish talking.
Old Band teleported next to William and covered his mouth.
Old Band looked sternly at William and said in a warning tone, “Mind your words. Else I will leave the City of Dawn with the princess.”
The indignant William gazed at Old Band and waved his finger that had the ring and said, “I’ll be discreet, but the space ring will be mine.”
Old Band glanced at the space ring and could not help laughing. “It’s no big deal. I’ll give the space ring to your Royal Highness. It’ll be my present to you for being an enchanter.”
“Is a Space Enchanter very powerful?” William asked.
Old Band looked at William and clasped both his hands together. He said, “If it’s a one-to-one duel, I’m more powerful than ten elemental enchanters. Do you understand?”
William asked again in curiosity, “Can you defeat ten elemental enchanters at the same time?”
“No!” Old Band looked gloomy. He had just attained the enchanter status. How could he be that powerful?
“Let’s flee. I’m being pursued by my enemies. The explosion of the dimension vortex will definitely attract a lot of attention.” William left in haste with Old Band. They found a discreet location to construct the teleportation portal.
“Why do we have to escape? Even if I can’t defeat them, I’m not afraid…” Before Old Band finished his sentence, his gaze focused in the distance. Ten rays of light pierced through the sky and thunder roared. Old Band felt he was being surrounded.
Old Band was furious. He looked at the nonchalant William and knew that William had created yet another trouble. Had William not created enough troubles?
Old Band knew that William had pilfered from the Empires’ treasuries.
It was only a small dimension vortex explosion, and yet it attracted the attention of these powerful warriors.
But the ten warriors who were traveling at supersonic speed did not come here because of the explosion.
“This is unfamiliar territory. Even if I’m a Space Enchanter, they would not be intimidated. It’s better if we flee.”
“Good idea!” The earnest William nodded in agreement.
Old Band did not waste any time. He gestured in the air, and a round teleportation portal appeared!
He glanced at the ten figures that were closing in before pulling William into the dimension tunnel!
Swish! Swish! Swish!…
Numerous figures arrived and crushed the earth’s surface.
There were warriors, mages, rangers, assassins, and a translucent warlock…
They were able to sense the dissipating magic ripples. They also saw two figures walking into the teleportation portal. Their prey had escaped.
For a moment, there was silence.
An elderly enchanter sighed and said, “Let’s go back. It’s a Space Enchanter. Even a Great Enchanter would not be able to catch up with them.”
“Humph? Can’t catch up? Or you don’t intend to give chase? It must be these two fellows who created chaos in the nations. Why do you let them escape? Is the Space Enchanter one of your men in the Red Sea Empire?” A warrior from the Crashing Wave Empire scoffed as his flames surged by tens of meters.
The elderly enchanter glanced at the warrior and frowned as he said, “You’ve just become a professional. Do you think you’re an Epic warrior? Remember, you haven’t been given any titles!”
“You…” The Crashing Wave Empire warrior flew into a terrible rage, but his companion, who was adjacent to him, restrained him.
This companion was a young Epic ranger who had been given a title. He gently smiled and said, “Please pardon my junior. He didn’t know that the Space Enchanter had just leveled up. Where is the dimension vortex leading to? Is the Red Sea enchanter capable of locating it?”
The elderly enchanter knitted his brows and shook his head. “The dimension ripples have dissipated. Moreover, I’m not a Space Enchanter!”
“We’ll return then. If the Red Sea Empire is not pursuing, we can’t possibly follow the dimension ripples to find them.” The ranger smiled in disappointment and left.
Red Sea Empire and Crashing Wave Empire.
They were the strongest empires in the archipelago continent!
If they wanted to attack, tens of Epic warriors with extraordinary combat power would be sent out!
If William had continued to create trouble, he would have definitely perished.
Even though the emperors of both empires did not wish to attack, it did not mean that they would allow intruders to create trouble in their territories.
