Chapter 36 - The past stories

The Tiger King rushed over and gave me a hard punch, grinning excitedly and scolding: "You young man, you are truly an indestructible monster! Such an abnormal task, and yet you managed to complete it!" 

Honey came up to me next, giving me a heavy slap as well: "I thought we were going to die this time, but you managed to finish it! How did you defeat that dead rat? Damn it, I was bitten to death by that freak!" 

The special patrol was not as brutal as that, but it just laughed at me: "I have always only admired the Tiger King Boss. This time, I should also admire you." 

I simply didn't know what to say. I kept grinning while returning the Tiger King's golden sword and Honey's wrist guard to their rightful owners. 

I said apologetically: "This mission caused everyone to fail and didn't drop any equipment. I'm really sorry. I brought you all here. This was the money I earned from selling the equipment of those Kazakh people. Let's divide it, each ten... No, eight gold coins." 

Poor me, after being extorted by the messenger, only had twenty-five gold coins on me.

The three of them accepted it without hesitation and laughed together. The Tiger King scolded: "You young man, are you deliberately showing off? We know that it was you who made this mission possible. Thank you once, okay?" 

I made a sound of agreement. The Tiger King then laughed: "This mission gave each of us 5 points of spirit and 5 points of constitution. Do you know what that means? This special mission that rewards attributes is not common in the entire Sunset City. You're not satisfied yet, right? By the way, you were the one who completed it last. You must have received a higher reward. Say, what is it?" 

We chatted and joked for a while. I knew that at that time in the Epidemic God Temple, they were indeed fighting against three Epidemic Gods simultaneously. Since most people were infected with some viruses, they fought with all their might, but only killed two, leaving the Plague God to be given to me. Then, due to the limit on online time, they were forced to log off. I had a good sleep after that and then came online specifically because this online time was too long. My family members scolded me severely for taking away his game helmet because he was almost unable to play anymore.

The important thing came first. We couldn't talk any longer. When I mentioned the mission I had accepted, all three of them found it difficult. They didn't have long-range attack abilities and were powerless against the evil eagles in the sky. Moreover, there were few experienced mages and archers that I knew.

Honey volunteered to use the teleportation array to find one of his archer friends.

At this moment, I suddenly saw the little glasses emerging from the resurrection point. The new clothes on his body had disappeared at some point, revealing his ribs.

The little glasses came out, didn't pause, wiped his tears, and ran towards the village outside. I was even moved by his spirit.

The Tiger King and the one in charge of the patrol laughed heartily, and I was touched. I asked the Tiger King and the one in charge of the patrol to chase after the little glasses as much as possible to help him. Anyway, players slaughtering the docile eagle species is also one of the reasons for the mutation of the eagle group. The little glasses stopping other players from killing the eagles was also helping us.

I ran towards the mayor's residence alone and saw the mayor, directly asking: "Excuse me, mayor, why are there so many eagle groups gathered here? Is there any story about this town in the past?" 

The game's village mayor and such people like telling stories to players are my experience.

Sure enough, the mayor immediately started chatting with me and couldn't stop. It was probably going on for almost an hour before he finished telling the legend of the Flying Eagle Town.

I got a general idea of it. It was said that many years ago, the Flying Eagle Town was still a desert, and only some refugees were sent here to mine.

One year, three strange travelers came here and saw this scene. They stayed here and didn't know what they did. Soon, the desert turned into a vast grassland, and many eagles from all over the continent came here. The grassland attracted various small animals, and the eagles gradually became more and more numerous. Because these eagles were very easy to tame, there came trainers here. Later on, the trainers discovered the abundant mineral resources, timber, gemstones, medicinal herbs, etc. around here, which attracted a large number of people. Eventually, a town was built.

It seems that those three travelers must have left something somewhere.

While thinking, I asked: "Then, when did the grass disappear here?"

The mayor sighed: "About seven days ago, a wizard player came to our place and stayed for a few days before leaving. The grass around the village rapidly withered. By the way, I remember now, the strange change of the eagle flock seemed to have begun shortly after the grass withered."

Wizard? The players of this profession are very few because they use spells, but they must use mediums, and the materials needed for using spells are very strange, some are very expensive. Therefore, the wizard profession is usually chosen by very wealthy people. However, although the wizard consumes a lot of materials and is very costly, his power is very powerful. Some large organizations might keep one or two of them.

Perhaps this wizard found something that the three travelers left behind in Feiyong Town, and that treasure was exactly the source of the grass's vitality. Without the treasure, all the grass would wither.

I hurriedly asked: "Where did that wizard go most often?"

The mayor thought for a moment: "At that time, he found the little cow that loved to play in the town and led it around. The little cow was wandering around the school area."

I hurriedly went out to find the little cow. This child was indeed very easy to coax. Just by asking him a few questions, I told him that the previous wizard had discovered a secret passage under a small hill. That time, he didn't allow the little cow to go in, and the wizard went in alone. When he returned to the town, he left.

It seems that's where it is. I immediately took the little cow to look for the Tiger King and his group. Then I looked back and found that the town suddenly became chaotic.

Hundreds of players rushed out of the houses, holding weapons in their hands, shouting "Kill!" in the air. In the teleportation array, players wearing the emblem of the Eagle Slayer Guild kept appearing, shouting: "Where is that reckless guy?!"

Around the resurrection point in the center of the village, in the blink of an eye, a group of people appeared. As soon as they were resurrected, they cursed loudly and called their companions to run out of the town.

Did the eagle flock have a major change again, or was the boss out?

I hurriedly led the little cow and quickened my pace to follow these people.

Soon we arrived at the place where the 30-level eagle flock appeared. Hundreds of players were roaring and rushing around on the open ground. However, there weren't many evil eagles swooping down from the sky to attack the players with fireballs. Instead, it was the huge fire bird - the phoenix!

I was stunned. At that moment, Tiger King's voice came: "Sky, you also came to watch the show, it's so exciting!"

Tiger King and the one with the small glasses were walking towards me at a brisk pace.

I urgently asked: "What's going on?"

Tiger King said: "We also came to see the commotion, and we didn't expect to see that freak! God, I've never seen such a freakish guy before, not even as good as you."

I wasn't in the mood to joke with him. I asked urgently: "Is it a 'Xuanhuan Fashen' guy?"

Tiger King said: "The name is unknown, but that phoenix is his pet. It's too freakish."

I was stunned. Xuanhuan Fashen was actually fighting against the Eagle Slayer Guild, fighting against a huge organization with his own strength! He was really VeryVeryCool!

I followed the crowd of the Eagle Slayer Guild in the direction of the law god, and saw that he was waving his hands. "Fire Sea" immediately submerged a large group of players. When another group of players approached him, another "Fire Wheel Dance" appeared!

"The Fire Wheel Dance" surrounded the law god, covering an area of one丈. The fire wheels were rotating rapidly, and there were six big fire balls on each wheel. Each player was damaged by the first fire ball and was momentarily stunned. In just this moment, the next fire ball appeared in front of them, causing more blood loss.

Each close-range player just watched, helplessly, as the numbers "-200, -200, -200..." emerged from above their heads and then turned into white light, as if they had fallen into a huge meat grinder.

The mages and archers finally gasped for breath and rushed to the range, but as soon as they released their arrows and magic spells, the target in front of them simply vanished into thin air.

The next moment, in another direction, the cries of the eagle-hunting believers resounded again, and the inferno of the god of magic once again raged!

"Space transfer!" Could such a super mage, who can perform "space transfer", still be defeated?
