Chapter 172 - 172 Dog Thing!

However, even if they wanted to leave, someone was unwilling to let them leave.

.

” Teacher, the inventory is done. Would you like to take a look?”

Wayne held a booklet in his hand and whispered into An Kai’s ear, who was snoring softly.

An Kai, who was sleeping, suddenly opened his eyes.

Impatience could be seen in his eyes.

Wayne quickly repeated what he had just said.

Only then did An Kai’s gaze soften a little.

He took the booklet from Wayne’s hand and quickly flipped through it until the end.

” Gold coins: 3521.”

“Item value: 4612 gold coins.”

” Low-grade magic stones: 1013.”

He took a look and found that this was within An Kai’s expectations.

This group of Stage 5 professionals was more cautious than the last, and they wished they could bring all the resources with them.

“Wayne, how much tax do those damn vermin owe us?”

Wayne put away the booklet and took out a new booklet from his pocket.

It clearly recorded the taxes owed by these Stage 5 forces every month.

Under An Kai’s instructions, the taxes collected by the Home of Kindness were very complicated.

Of course, most of them were taxes that were tailored to the Home of Kindness.

For example, robbery tax, fishing tax, unexpected income tax, murder and treasure stealing tax, and other taxes that fit the desert background.

Other than these practical taxes, the rest were normal taxes on houses, shops, and transactions.

Wayne had once made a calculation under An Kai’s instructions.

Although the taxes he collected made the residents of the city feel pained, it was not enough for them to riot.

An Kai took eighty percent through taxes, and the remaining twenty percent was their income. It would not make them despair.

After taking out the booklet, Wayne coughed lightly and cleared his throat. He began to introduce the 21 forces with Stage 5 professionals one by one and how much tax they owed.

After Wayne spoke, Hanks and Widow Wang also showed interest.

After all, they still had 10% of the tax.

As for the Stage 5 Assassin, Mason felt a little unfamiliar when he saw Wayne.

At some point, the great prince of the Kingdom of Shaq had perfectly assumed the role of the ‘treasurer’ and ‘steward’ of the Home of Kindness.

“Shaq Kingdom, Tier 5 [Heavy Armor Warrior] Milton. Accumulated tax debt of 13652 gold coins.”

“….”

.

They were shocked.

There were a total of 21 forces of Stage 5 experts.

Just the taxes they owed were as high as 200,000 gold.
If those were turned into low-grade magic stones…

Red!

An Kai’s eyes turned completely red!

In the past, he had no concept of gold coins. It was nothing more than some numbers.

“Hanks, just tell me, can I still exchange for low-grade sorcerer’s stones?”

If he could exchange it for 200,000 low-grade magic stones, it was not an exaggeration to say that An Kai could lie flat on the ground.

Hanks had been dealing with An Kai for so many years, so how could he not understand An Kai’s thoughts?

But he had his own difficulties.

” No,” Hanks thought for a few seconds and shook his head slowly.” Not a single piece.

“There are only middle-grade sorcerer’s stones left.”

” Hmph!” An Kai snorted and scolded,” Useless old thing.”

At the same time, he cursed that old fart Dong Lin in his heart.

If Dong Lin hadn’t sealed off the desert, even if Hanks no longer provided low-grade sorcerer’s stones, An kai could have found a new way to exchange for sorcerer’s stones through the merchants of the seven countries or the people of the other seven countries.

Even if he had to spend more gold coins, he would not panic.

After all, An Kai lacked everything except gold coins.

In addition, if the desert was not sealed, foreign caravans could still carry out continuous trade with the Home of Kindness.

To An Kai, this was driving up his tax revenue.

However.

As the desert was sealed by Dong Lin, An Kai had gold coins, but he could not exchange them for low-grade stones.

After looting 21 forces with Stage 5 experts and secretly trading magic gems with these forces for a year, An Kai understood one thing.

Low-grade sorcerer’s stones were really precious. There were very few people like Hanks who could sell four figures at once.

At the very least, these 21 forces of Stage 5 experts were not willing to do so.

An Kai estimated that with the tax of 200,000 gold coins, he would be lucky if he could get 20,000 low-grade magic stones.

Now, he needed 5400 Skill Points to level up his spells!

That was 5400 low-grade magic stones!

After all, An Kai had mastered eight spells and one forging skill.

If he really had 20,000 low-grade magic stones, even if he exchanged all of them for skill points, it would not be enough to support An Kai to upgrade all his spells from Level 26 to Level 30.

At that time, even if he was unwilling, An Kai could only choose to give up on improving some spells and use them to improve the more important ones.

For example, [Meditation] and [Fireball].

A year of closed-door cultivation could be said to have exhausted all of An Kai’s resources.

Fortunately, he had [Summon], which allowed him to summon once a day.

Stage 3 Monster Cores could also be exchanged for 3 Skill Points.

Although it was not much, it could be considered as replenishing a portion of the skill point gap.

In the room, An Kai sat on the ice bed and looked at his remaining resources.

[Skill Points: 21]

[Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3 Monster Cores: 0]

He had obtained 1013 low-grade sorcerer’s stones because of the shakedown. Before the shakedown, he did not have a single low-grade sorcerer’s stone.

He didn’t even have the low-grade magic stones needed for the [Beast Meat Refining Platform]. If he didn’t confiscate his property, An kai could only wait for the [Summon] to finish its cooldown and use a Stage 3 magic nucleus to activate the [Beast Meat Refining Platform].

Therefore, there were a few pressing problems that needed to be solved in front of An Kai.

If he couldn’t resolve them, it would be quite hard to give a surprise for Dong Lin to come out of seclusion ten years later and give him a surprise.

1. Solve the source of low-grade magic stones.

2. Solve the source of low-grade magic stones!

3. It was still better to solve the source of the low-grade magic stones!

An Kai had the strength now.

His own strength could easily suppress Stage 5 Assassin Mason, and as long as he had time, his strength would continue to increase steadily.

Bottlenecks and whatnot did not exist for him.

As for his subordinates, An Kai also had them.

Among them, forty-three of the Stage four lackeys had been drugged and controlled by Mason.

They were also the main force An Kai used to collect taxes from the city.

As for Stage Five, An Kai now had two Stage Five lackeys. One was Mason, and the other was the Stage Five Rank Four mage from last night. They had just signed a contract.

There was also Widow Wang, a Stage 5 Champion who could fight Christy on par.

In addition to the city of the Home of Kindness that An Kai currently controlled, it was no exaggeration to say that An Kai had already become a huge force in the desert.

Just like the description of the Rewards Tower in the former Chaos City, An Kai’s current power was enough to overturn the regime of a Duchy.

The premise was that the desert was not sealed.

An Kai had everything.

The only thing lacking was resources.

After thinking about it, An Kai couldn’t find a good solution.

After pondering for a few seconds, he prepared to collect the taxes that he could get his hands on.

Unfortunately, there were 10 Stage 5 Rank 10 experts who had entered the Spirit Endowment Mystic Realm.

He stood up and was about to call the Stage 5 experts over, and he stopped in his tracks.

Just now.

A message came from the spell [Contract]. One of the contracts he had signed with a Stage 5 Rank 10 expert had expired.

It wasn’t that the other party had broken the contract but that the other party had died in the Spirit Endowment Mystic Realm.

“What a pity. I wonder if I’ll have the chance to get the storage ring since he died there.”

After muttering to himself, An Kai brought Mason out of the door.

Widow Wang left Hanks some instructions and followed An Kai with reluctance.

The next day.

Late at night.

In the secret chamber under the castle of the Home of Kindness.

An Kai held the Brute Force Staff in his hand. Behind him was the Stage 5 Assassin, Mason, the Stage 5 Witch, Widow Wang, and a Stage 5 Rank 4 Elementalist.

Opposite An Kai, there were a total of 8 Stage 5 masters who had their hands tied and were hanging in the air, wailing in pain.

” You dogs, how dare you evade my taxes?!”
