Chapter 257: Breakthrough at the Military Factory

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Orlando, Goode and the rest acted fast, and soon, all of the assassins that have infiltrated the territory were caught off guard and captured. Unfortunately, even after intoxicating them with the Soul Intoxication Water, Yang Ling was still unable to obtain news about the person behind the scenes of this mission. All of the assassins have come here from the faraway Montson acting on orders.

After extracting the memories and intelligence of the assassins, Yang Ling ordered Goode to issue a notice, prepared to publicly execute all of the assassins at the Magical Beast Plaza near the Hunter Association.

The Magical Beast Plaza was situated by the side of the Donau River. Even though it was still lacking many facilities and amenities as it had been built in a hurry, it had a massive scale. In the long term plan of the Magical Beast Territory, the Magical Beast Plaza would become a place for gathering or military parades. After the amenities got more sophisticated, the area would also become a good place for leisure and relaxation.

The notice that announced the public execution of the assassins quickly caused an uproar within the territory. Early the next day, the Magical Beast Plaza became packed with people, with many people even rushing over from the Black Water City, which was hundreds of miles away, overnight.

“Kill, kill, kill...”

“Dig out their hearts, bash in their brains...”

...

The people screamed and shouted in fury after understanding that these killers had assassinated a dozen hunters and were intentionally causing destruction within the Magical Beast Territory. Especially the hunters, they maniacally let out the fury in their hearts. Some of them threw out egg after egg, some threw pieces of stone... They wanted to slice the assassins into a million pieces personally.

If not for the many heavy armored barbarian soldiers stopping them, they might have been launching sharp arrows instead of throwing eggs and pebbles.

Seeing the uproar, Yang Ling walked quickly up the platform in the plaza, knowing that he had successfully ignited the fury in the hearts of the people.

“We love the Magical Beast Territory, our home. We love peace. But that does not mean that we would tolerate anyone coming to destroy our home and assassinate the members of our family.” After a pause, Yang Ling continued, “In my hometown, there was once a great leader who said: Anyone who invades our territory is an enemy, and we would exterminate them no matter how far away they are!”

Exterminate them no matter how far away they are?

The crowd slipped into a complete uproar when they heard Yang Ling’s words. The ordinary townspeople raised their clenched fists, while the soldiers and hunters raised their weapons high into the air. Ever since Yang Ling had defeated the forces of the Banto Empire and successfully took the helm of leader, his successes were laid bare for all of them to witness!

Insurgents, building cities, constructing harbors and piers, setting up the Hunter Association...

Every plan in the territory, every time the leader Yang Ling took action, all of these actions brought about massive benefits to the people, directly or indirectly.

The clearing of insurgents gave the territory massive human traffic and sufficient manpower; Merchant teams of various sizes entering and staying within the territory brought along a huge amount of capital and jobs; The Hunter Association gave those who had been born a commoner a chance to become a noble and the hope of becoming an earl; The powerful soldiers and giant Magical Beast army gave the townspeople and unprecedented sense of security...

As Yang Ling raised his hand, the barbarian warriors raised their tyre-sized axes high into the air, then struck down after taking a deep breath. In that instant, a dozen human heads rolled onto the ground, fresh blood splattering everywhere!

Looking at the dozen assassins that have been killed on the spot, looking at the ground covered in fresh blood, the people waved the weapons in their hands maniacally. They then placed their right hands on their chests and groveled before Yang Ling, who was on the platform. At this moment, they would not have any hesitations even if Yang Ling was to order them to set off to sea and attack the terrifying Sea Tribe, much less the Banto Empire.

“Hehe, smart, interesting, it’s getting more and more interesting!”

On a faraway hill, Elder Klive, under the protection of a bunch of Dark Knights and Dark Spellcasters, looked on with satisfaction at Yang Ling on the platform. He was getting more and more satisfied by the vigor and dynamism of the youngster Yang Ling.

A sheep leading a pack of lions often did not have a better effect than if a lion was leading a flock of sheep!

The more exceptional Yang Ling was, the more determined Elder Klive was when it came to working together with him. Only if the ally he was working together with had powerful abilities could they come together to deal with a common threat.

Looking at the charismatic Yang Ling, looking at the many warriors and hunters groveling before him, Elder Klive nodded in satisfaction, while the expressions of some other people became more and more ugly. After a moment’s deliberation, they left the Magical Beast Plaza without leaving a trace, quickly reporting on the situation within the Magical Beast Territory using a Magical Communication Device.

Yang Ling quickly left the Magical Beast Plaza after successfully causing an uproar and strengthening the people’s sense of belonging, pride and responsibility to the territory. On the surface, it seemed as though he had obtained a flawless victory, having cleared the assassins within the territory; But the territory would not experience true stability unless he successfully dealt with the person behind the scenes.

He could use the influence of the Dark Association and even the Church to scare the enemies that are threatening the Magical Beast Territory; But the best cause of action he could take to completely solve the problem was to increase the overall abilities of the territory as soon as possible!

The development of the territory was going on in an orderly manner with Goode’s support and planning. The harbor near the estuary of the Donau River would be operational come spring next year. When that time comes, merchant teams of various sizes would be able to trade between the territory and populated human cities through the sea, greatly boosting the next phase of development in the territory.

The progress of the military factory was also getting faster and faster. Not only were the weapons and armor produced within the facility enough to supply the soldiers of the territory, they could also sell a small amount of them. Furthermore, construction had already begun on the Gnome Elder’s Magic Experimentation Tower, Master Aaron’s Alchemy Experimentation Tower and Alice’s Medicinal Experimental Tower, creating a solid foundation for the development of top notch weapons, armor and secret weapons.

The efficiency of the Five-colored Crystal Mines was also getting higher and higher. They would obtain a good number of high-quality crystal ores and sell them for a substantial amount of crystal coins through the Wissen Merchant Team, providing the territory with an endless stream of support and enough of a guarantee for its developmental plans.

Even though there are still several areas that need to be perfected, the Hunter Association has also gradually went on the right track. Having advanced to the level of Divine Wizard and planting traps all around the territory, Yang Ling was confident of dealing with the threats coming from the Troop Association.

This way, after all of the developmental projects in the territory starts going on the right track, Yang Ling would be able to devote a large portion of his energy into strengthening his own abilities.

He could seize the time to solidify his position as a Divine Wizard and grasp even more Wizard Techniques; He could seize the time to explore the deeper regions of the Terras Forest to tame high-level Magical Beasts and create a powerful Magical Beast army; He could even explore other regions and search for the secrets behind the disappearance of the Ancient Wizards...

After returning to the Wissen Castle, Yang Ling had wanted to seize the time to solidify his position as a Divine Wizard. Unexpectedly, he had just entered the door when the Gnome Elder walked quickly toward him, with the old lecher Aaron, who had the moniker of a Genius Alchemist, following behind him.

“We succeeded, Sir, we succeeded!” The Gnome Elder spoke as he carefully took out a Magic Hunting Card from within his robes, handing it excitedly toward Yang Ling, “With Master Aaron’s help, we successfully found the technique to draw Magical Spell Formations on the Magic Hunting Cards. Now, a person could use these Magic Hunting Cards even if they do not have Magical Energy in their body!”

They can use Magic Hunting Cards even without Magical Energy in their bodies?

Looking at the Gnome Elder, his face red in excitement, then seeing the similarly excited Master Aaron behind him, Yang Ling fetched over the Magic Hunting Card that had the Magical Spell Formation sketched on, closely observing to see how it was different from an ordinary Magic Hunting Card.

An ordinary Magic Hunting Card was crystalline throughout, but these new cards were different. There were complex, intricate patterns carved on the surface of the card. It was cold to the touch and had a strange textual feedback, as if Yang Ling was touching a miniature, three dimensional sculpture.

Other than the difference in appearance, the new Magic Hunting Card also released an obscure ripple of Magical Energy. Through his powerful senses, Yang Ling soon realized that the card was automatically absorbing the Magical Elements floating in the air.

“Orlando, come, give this a try!”

Yang Ling retrieved an untamed Vampire Bat from within the space of the Wizard’s Pagoda, then ordered Orlando to test out the effects of the new card. The latter understood and fetched over the card and Vampire Bat from Yang Ling’s hands, prepared to store the little creature into the Magic Hunting Card. Unexpectedly, he was unable to succeed even after trying for some time, his face turning red with worry.

“Orlando, relax, don’t be nervous!” The Gnome Elder laughed as he saw Orlando’s face red with worry, “The new Magic Hunting Card is different from the original, all you need to do is spend a little mental energy to store the pet. You would not get any effect if you use Summoning Magic instead!”

With the Gnome Elder’s demonstration, Orlando quickly mastered the technique, storing the Vampire Bat into the Magic Hunting Card within the blink of an eye. He could summon the small creature in an instant using only a little mental energy. This new card is much better than the first iteration of the Magic Hunting Card.

Around one in a thousand people on the Tailun Continent were Spellcasters, and even fewer of them were Spellcasters born as commoners. This made it such that most of the hunters were unable to use the first iteration of the Magic Hunting Card.

Unlike the mysterious Magical Energy, everyone was born with a certain amount of mental energy. Even an ordinary lad would have a rich amount of mental energy, much less troops and adventurers who went on explorations for a living. Under normal circumstances, the amount of mental energy and stamina one had was proportional to how strong their physical bodies were. Now, the difficult problem of low-level hunters being unable to use Magic Hunting Cards was naturally solved.

Wouldn’t someone else be able to use the battle pet within the card if the Magic Hunting Card was lost or stolen?

After repeatedly testing the function of the new Magic Hunting Card, Orlando and a few of his guards fell in love with it, becoming as excited as the Gnome Elder and Master Aaron. However, Yang Ling had a thought, thinking about a fatal flaw of the new card. Similar to the Man-eating Vines and the puppets, there was no way to establish secure control without giving it some way to recognize its master.

It would be good if what was within the Magic Hunting Cards was a Summoner’s Magical Beast or tamed Magical Beast, as someone else would not be able to command the creatures even if they obtained the card. However, it would be troublesome if they were ordinary war pets that cannot recognize their masters. They might perhaps have to suffer the brunt of the attack from the war pets within the cards if an enemy stole or snatched the card from them.
