Chapter 724: The Defender (1/2)
”I need to be lucky once again.” Our bored gamer sighed as he looked at his character information.
Although he had many techniques already but all of them combined still lacked substance in comparison to his cultivation base.
He needed to reach the apex and that was level 10 in order to begin his conquest of this world.
Before he got to that point, it would be folly to leave the epic blessing of Far Water Town and its perks.
”I hope I get a million years of cultivation next.” Clark muttered next. He got 500 years, 1,000, 10,000, 100,000, and 500,000 years of cultivation but never one million.
He guessed that if he got this last boost in cultivation age then that would be more than enough to make him stand at the peak of this realm.
”I have time. There's no need to be impatient at all.” Our good gamer smiled and then went back on his business of engaging Far Water Town as his home.
He was not idle at all and went to events just like a normal prince would do. There were many women who wanted to bed him but our bored gamer politely declined.
It did not need telling that the usual girls of the town failed to get his attention at all.
With Clark's olden eyes, it would take one hell of a woman to arouse his sleeping little brother into action once again.
He slept and was left unaware of the troubles that the future would bring him.

Months passed and the plague of the Black Company scattered in all directions.
”NOOOOOOO! Please let us go! Please!” A woman was seen begging in chains. If there was any consolation in the place, it was that she shared her fate with the rest of her family.
Her husband and children were also in chains like her.
”PAK!” A hard slap fell on the face of the woman. She fell down hard on the ground.
”Stop crying, woman! There is no escape from us.” A warrior with dazzling armor said harshly.
”WALK!” This stern warrior shouted and the singing of chains continued along the march of these captured souls.

”Father, I can't walk anymore.” An 8 year old girl took deep breaths as she weakly slumped on the earth.
”We're almost there, Judy.” The father of the family encouraged but he gave his young daughter a second or two to breathe. He has a wife and ten children.
It was easy to tell that this was indeed a big family. They were dragging a humble cart behind them which carried their supplies and possessions.
Although they could have traveled faster without this heavy load but to constantly search for food from this wilderness would indeed prove to be a harder quest in their escape.
”Are you sure we're going to be safe in where we're going, Dan?” A worried question sailed unto the ears of the leader of this trip.
”I don't know but i believe we will be.” Dan, the father of the family, replied. He looked at his wife and smiled in order to assure her.
Dan would have wanted to say more but alas, a sudden interruption sidelined his thoughts for a moment.
”BANG!”
”BANG!”
”BANG!”
