Chapter 264 – Spatial Tray (2/2)

“Firewalk!”

Fatty got to the magic stones with Firewalk and reached out with his left hand.

Pfff! The same time he grabbed a magic stone, the scorching lava spurted. Fatty’s health instantly plummeted at a terrifying speed.

Fatty swallowed the pills in his mouth. While his health was being restored bit by bit, his left hand didn’t stop swooping at the stones.

One stone, two, three… At the twelfth stone, when his health restoration couldn’t outheal the depletion, Fatty sighed in his heart and died inside the pond.

A faint black smoke rose up and swirled around Fatty’s corpse, quickly forming a gigantic skeletal monster.

“Lord Fatty is up and… grabbing!”

The skeletal monster Fatty let out a loud roar. Its two front paws were simultaneously deployed, so the stone grabbing speed was much faster than earlier.

The skeletal monster’s health pool was much larger than the rogue Fatty. While the depletion speed was still very fast, it still lasted longer than when Fatty crazily consumed the red pills.

“Okay, Lord Fatty can die content now.” As the last magic stone went to his inventory, the ugly skeletal monster emitted a creepy laugh.

Whoosh. A white light rose up. Fatty died a brave death.

“Screeeeech!

As soon as he emerged at the respawn point, Fatty heard a furious screech. The Mutated Fire Kite was hovering above. An endless rain of fire blotted the sky as it burned away at the defensive barrier enveloping the townlet.

“General, the restriction on the Teleportation Portal has been canceled. It can be used now.” Fatty walked up to Luo Kun.

The general looked at Fatty with an odd face. After a while, he said, “The Teleportation Portal was destroyed.”

Boom! Thunderstruck, Fatty nearly fell off the wall.

“How can this be? It still hasn’t broken into the town, right?” Fatty pointed at the firebird.

“It wasn’t the bird.” Luo Kun sighed.

Everything was as usual, the fire kite urged the monsters to attack the wall, Luo Kun led the NPCs to defend. The two sides fought their hearts out, but suddenly a fire shot into the townlet and destroyed the Teleportation Portal.

“Then, where is that fire?” Fatty asked.

“It went down.” Luo Kun pointed at the ground.

“What monster is it?” Fatty asked after musing for a bit.

“I couldn’t see it clearly. But I think it’s gunning for that thing underground too.” Luo Kun frowned. “The Mutated Fire Kite knows that its coveted treasure is going to be taken away by someone else, that’s why it’s attacking like crazy right now.”

“Then, maybe we can just deactivate the defensive barrier and let them fight each other to death? We can just sneak after them to reap the benefits.” Fatty had been reaping benefits for so long that he was obsessed with it.

“You want to let it destroy the town?” Hearing that, Luo Kun rolled his eyes.

Apparently, Luo Kun resorted to the defensive barrier because there was nothing else he could do.

“General, how many magic stones does the Magic Crystal Cannon need?” Fatty suddenly asked.

“10 stones per shot,” Luo Kun casually replied.

“If our stockpile hadn’t run out, we could have shot this damn bird to death instead of letting it act all arrogant like this!” an officer angrily added.

“Heh.” Fatty chuckled and opened his palm, revealing a magic stone.

“You have magic stones?” Luo Kun’s eyes lit up. “How many?”

“37,” Fatty answered honestly.

“Great! With the several left in our stock, we have enough for four shots. Men, come! Wheel out the Magic Crystal Cannon!” Luo Kun ordered in a booming voice.

“General, about that, I can give you the magic stones, but…” Fatty rubbed two fingers together.

“I understand, hahaha. What do you want? Name it.” Luo Kun was obviously in high spirits as he could finally unleash the cannon.

“One magic stone for two Yao inner cores, best if they include all attributes,” Fatty stated his condition.

“No problem.” Luo Kun was straightforward to agree.

Ever since they had been stationed here, they killed so many Yao monsters every day that their storage would soon be unable to hold them all.

“Report! The Magic Crystal Cannon is set and awaiting orders!” a soldier came to report.

Fatty handed all of his magic stones to Luo Kun then followed to watch the show.

The Magic Crystal Cannon was similar to the most ancient type of cannons. It was black but had a faint layer of magic runes carved on the surface. The barrel was one meter in diameter and ten meters in length.

“Ready…” Luo Kun ordered after he loaded the magic stones. Per his command, the cannon slowly rotated and aimed at the frenzied firebird outside the defensive barrier.

Faint energy gradually emerged, until the entire cannon shone brilliantly and sparks of magic force gushed out from the cannon mouth.

“Barrier down!” Luo Kun shouted.

Whoosh! The barrier disappeared in a flash. Countless flames rained downed even faster as the Mutated Fire Kite sounded a long screech.

“Fire!” Luo Kun strongly swung down his arm.
