Eye Sorcerer - Chapter 8

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Morning.

Yan Chong woke up inside Richard’s three-story house.

“It’s a shame Kane didn’t take me in. He may seem warmhearted, but he has basic vigilance, and he has a young daughter.”

Yan Chong recalled what had happened last night and could not help but shake his head and sigh. As a traveler from a faraway place, there were indeed many suspicious points about him. However, he was just an ordinary high school student on Earth. He might be a little handsome and his studies were good, but that did not mean that he had superb acting skills. So it made sense that Kane didn’t trust him.

Perhaps, Kane had other concerns as well. As a Grade A big shot, he must have his reasons for being a blacksmith in such a remote town.

Although Yan Chong did not tell the truth about his background, it was at least a complete story. It had a perfect world structure and a cultivation system. It was obvious that it was not made up on the spot.

He looked at his status: Transcendent Space Traverse XXXX: Cooldown Time: 3 hours 13 minutes 55 seconds.

Yan Chong decided to take a walk around the small town once more. He had stayed there for the purpose of stealing his skills after arriving at the blacksmith shop yesterday, and hadn’t gone anywhere else.

“It seems like only XP is a hard currency. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to replicate it even if the other party has a good bloodline.”

At the entrance of a meat shop.

“Boss, do you have any livestock you want to slaughter?” Yan Chong asked the meat shop owner.

“Haha, Sir, you’ve come at the right time. Our meat was killed last night, and it’s very fresh. Do you want a few catties?” The boss, who was covered in muscles, called out to Yan Chong with a smile.

“Uh, I mean, just slaughtered.”

“Sir, you don’t trust me, do you? Come, come, look at this piece of meat. It’s so fresh.” The boss held up a piece of meat that was stained with blood and was about to hand it to Yan Chong.

Yan Chong quickly took two steps back and waved his hand. “Forget it, there’s no need.”

“Hey! Buddy, take a look!”

“Killing pigs on the spot doesn’t seem like a common occurrence.” Yan Chong ignored the boss behind him and left decisively.

As time passed, the sun gradually rose from the horizon. After strolling for a long time, Yan Chong felt a little tired. Seeing that there was less than an hour of cooldown left, Yan Chong decided to go back to the slaughterhouse to see the effect of the XP.

“However, the transmigration this time took at least 24 hours. A day has passed and I didn’t go to class during the day. I wonder if something will happen at school. It’s over. I was just thinking of studying hard to improve myself, but in the end, I skipped class. I think I’m already beyond redemption in Teacher Zhang’s view.” Thinking of this, Yan Chong couldn’t help but cover his face with his hands.

“Thump!”

“Thump!”

“Thump!”

Vaguely, the ground shook, making Yan Chong feel a little stunned.

“Get lost!”

“Bastard! Get lost!”

“Don’t f*cking block the way!”

The shouting grew louder and louder. Yan Chong turned around and saw seven to eight cavalrymen in silver armor galloping on horses on the street, ignoring the pedestrians and the surrounding vendors.

There was a hint of despair in their eyes on their exhausted expressions. Their armor was full of cuts. There were black and red coagulated substances in the cuts, as though they were a mixture of blood and mud.

In an instant, people and horses were in a pitiful state. As they could not dodge in time, they were knocked over by horses or killed by the knights on horseback. Just from what Yan Chong saw, there were three or four people lying in pools of blood, trampled by horses. The screams were endless.

They’re too arrogant! Yan Chong’s heart suddenly surged with anger after seeing this scene. They were all ordinary citizens living happily in this beautiful town. Why would such an unexpected calamity suddenly descend upon them?

Is there still the law? Is there still justice?! This world was indeed dangerous, and the social system was somewhat backward.

Suddenly, a rubber ball rolled onto the street, and a little girl of seven or eight stumbled out of an alley beside it. She ran toward the ball, her face still flushed from fighting with her companions.

Yan Chong remembered her. She was the little girl with the snot who was playing with her friends yesterday. At that time, she even looked at Yan Chong curiously. She was just an ordinary girl-next-door.

But it wasn’t the right time for her to show up at that moment, because the squad of horsemen was racing toward the little girl. These tired cavalrymen seemed to have no humanity at all. They would not stop or dodge just because an innocent girl was blocking their way.

As Yan Chong concentrated, the scene in front of him seemed to slow down. The cavalry drew closer and closer to the little girl, and the leader slowly raised his sword. Like a cruel executioner raising his butcher knife, the expression on his face was crazy and distorted.

“No!” Yan Chong roared furiously in his heart when he saw this scene, and his eyes almost split apart. He had never hated his own helplessness like this. He yearned to transform into Superman and rush up to save the little girl from the villain’s knife. However, he was too far away from them. The distance of dozens of meters was something that even the 100-meter champion could not reach in an instant.

Was he supposed to witness this cruel scene? Yan Chong’s heart tightened.

At this time, a robust man suddenly rushed out from the alley just now and hugged the little girl. The powerful force caused the two of them to roll on the ground, narrowly avoiding the charging cavalry.

Yan Chong heaved a sigh of relief. The burden in his heart was lifted and he hurriedly retreated to the side of the street.

“They really disregard human lives. Strength, I must increase my strength!”

As [Reading] was activated, a series of information flashed past his eyes.

“The highest combat power is about B+, the lowest is D, I can’t afford to offend them.”

As this group of cavalry flew past, gusts of wind blew onto Yan Chong’s body, causing him to almost lose his balance. Fortunately, they seemed to be in a hurry. They only swung their swords at the people blocking their way.

However, less than a minute later, a shout was heard again.

“F*ck, aren’t they done?” Yan Chong hid in the jewelry store and observed the man through the window.

A group of fully armed cavalry galloped over on horses. They were also wearing silver-white armor. There were about twenty of them, twice as many as the previous batch. Furthermore, compared to the previous batch of cavalry, they appeared much more spirited. It was obvious from their brand new armor.

Through the [Reading] ability, there were two Grade Bs in this group of cavalry. One was a Sword Saint while the other was an Elementalist. Moreover, they were only slightly injured at most, not seriously injured.

As this group of cavalry galloped past, Yan Chong seemed to see the Elementalist looking at him casually. In an instant, a chill engulfed his entire body, making him shiver.

“Handsome boy, do you need to buy some jewelry for your girlfriend?” At this moment, a pleasant voice came from behind Yan Chong.

Yan Chong turned around and his eyes narrowed.

She was a woman in her twenties. She was tall, had fair skin, and her face was almost perfect. Her green-gold eyes were filled with charm. Coupled with her sharp chin and her smooth, golden hair, she looked like a fairy. However, she was wearing a blue and white dress made of coarse cloth which made her look very strange. It was like a watch worth tens of millions of yuan combined with a strap made of ordinary plastic.

Actually, what shocked Yan Chong was not just her appearance and temperament, but:

Race: Golden Race Human

Occupation: Sword Saint

Battle Power: A

Power: 23.3, Agility: 32.8, Intelligence: 7.7

Constitution: 21.5, Spirit: 5.8, Charm: 11.2

Status: Healthy

As the woman and Yan Chong looked at each other, the bloodline message also came:

Bloodline: Human A- (Requires XP: 1350), Flame Talent SS- (Requires XP: 100866).

This was the first time Yan Chong had seen a Grade SS character.

In the Battle Power Rating, S represented Legendary, A represented Gold, and B-D represented Silver, Bronze, and Black Iron respectively. They were divided into different ranks. The range of Black Iron was very wide. Its lower limit could be an ant or an ordinary person with no profession. The upper limit was the early stage of a professional. It was also an extraordinary existence on Earth.

Legendary rank didn’t just represent strength, they also represented the level of life. If one advanced to the Legendary rank, their life level would evolve and sublimate, and their bloodline would also improve, making them different from ordinary people.

SS belonged to the Legendary rank, but the strength of a Legendary was too large. It was divided into three stages, which were represented by S, SS, and SSS. In other words, the gap between each stage of a Legendary rank was comparable to the gap between the previous levels.

In the eyes of ordinary people in the Endless Mainland, the Gold and Silver rank were already great experts. Legendaries were characters that could be remembered in the annals of history. In the eyes of the Gods, only Legendaries were qualified to enter their sights.

Grade SS- talent meant that she had a 100 times higher chance of becoming a Legendary.

“Another big boss. Is she the boss of a jewelry store?” Yan Chong was in a daze for a while before he hurriedly replied, “I’m sorry, Miss. I just saw that the cavalry was too fierce and came in to hide.”

“Is that so? But since you’re here, why don’t you take a look at my jewelry? It’s not bad to wear it yourself,” the woman said with a smile.

“But I didn’t bring any money,” Yan Chong said in embarrassment.

From what he learned from Kane yesterday, the currency used here was gold, silver, and copper coins. The ratio was 1: 100: 10000, and the purchasing power of one copper coin was basically equivalent to two to three yuan on Earth.

Yan Chong felt that he was really poor after looking at the prices of “50 silver coins”, “20 silver coins”, “1 gold coin” and “5 gold coins”. Even if he exchanged his living expenses in this world, he probably would not be able to exchange for one gold coin.

When she heard Yan Chong’s words, the woman’s expression stiffened and she felt a little embarrassed. She was born into a rich family, so when had she ever worried about money? She had opened a jewelry store here, and the price tag was already as cheap as cabbage.

Boom! Just when Yan Chong was about to leave the restaurant, a deafening sound suddenly rang out.

Yan Chong took this opportunity to escape from the shop. He jogged to the street and looked at the source of the sound. His body suddenly trembled.

“There was an explosion where Brother Kane was?!”
