Chapter 33 - Library
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After leaving Star Elves Jewelry, Yan Chong and Loli walked on the streets of the town.
From time to time, they would sense the aura of the orcs in the nearby shops, so they would go in and kill them to save the slaves that were oppressed by them. With the invisible barrier, it was difficult for professionals
below Grade A to discover them.
It had to be said that Yan Chong’s current battle power was still very strong. Those Grade D+ Orc warriors could not last more than three to five moves against him. Although the ordinary Orcs who were not even
professionals were at least Grade D, Yan Chong could easily kill them.
Even if the other party was a female orc, Yan Chong was merciless. It was not that he was rational to the point of being cold-blooded. It was just that the so-called women and children looked sinister and scary. It was
impossible to feel any sympathy for them.
The Orcs of the Endless Mainland were not bull-headed or horse-faced. They were half-human and half-beast. However, at the same time that they were larger than humans, their appearances were much uglier as
well. This was also the reason why they possessed some magical beast bloodlines.
Most importantly, there was reproductive isolation between humans and orcs! This was the root of the conflict. There was a legend that the orcs were actually the work of the Gods, not a race that was born and
evolved naturally.
Humans could shake hands and make peace after the war, but the war between races could only be one of life and death. Those who were not of the same race would definitely have different intentions. Even if they
were not completely exterminated, the best outcome would be for one side to become a slave for generations to come.
In the small town, the streets paved with bluestone were not much different from three months ago. However, the originally clean and flat road surface had more cracks, and there was a lot of garbage piled up on it.
A faint smell of feces wafted over from time to time, making Yan Chong frown slightly. These Orcs really didn’t care much about hygiene. In addition, a portion of the residents had already been tortured to death by
them, so their labor force had been greatly reduced.
Most of the shops were occupied by the orcs. Many of the surviving residents were distributed to the orc warriors as goods to serve them. The stronger the orc, the more servants they had.
“Wu”
“Wu”
“Wu”
The horn sounded. Yan Chong and Loli looked at each other and immediately picked up their pace, running toward the source of the sound. It seemed like the Orcs had already discovered the enemy’s presence and
sent out a warning signal, preparing to gather to face the enemy.
However, Yan Chong and Loli weren’t worried. Most of the residents of the town had been rescued by the two of them and were arranged to live in a few houses at the edge of the town, including Richard’s three-story
building.
As for the remaining residents, they could only hope that they were lucky enough not to be affected by the battle. After all, although the town wasn’t big, it was still impossible for two people to rescue such scattered
targets.
Thinking of this, Yan Chong asked, “Loli, why did you come to the town alone?”
“Hmph! It’s all because those church fellows were watching our Revolutionary Army’s every move, wanting to get a share of the loot, so I secretly rushed here alone.” Loli said with dissatisfaction, her face filled with
disdain.
Following Loli’s explanation, Yan Chong learned that the Radiance Church had churches all over the Western Continent to preach.
However, the upper echelons of the Empire were more resistant to this, and their reactions had become more and more violent in recent years. As a result, the churches in many towns had also been demolished.
The internal and external troubles of the Empire were exactly what the Church wanted to see. They also wanted to take the opportunity to regain their faith.
Nearly a hundred years! Yan Chong noticed this keyword, and it made him realize that some kind of crucial information seemed to be shrouded in a thick cloud of doubt, making it difficult to see clearly.
In the past hundred years, the three Kingdoms had been divided from the Maka Empire. The academies and the Empire were at odds with each other, and so was the Church. What exactly happened back then that led
to such a series of events? Shaking his head, Yan Chong suppressed his complicated thoughts and came to a building that looked like a Roman arena with Loli.
The Roman gladiatorial arena was overlooking the sky. It was a circle. From the ground, it looked like a hollow cylinder. As for the building, it was only a third of its original size. In other words, if one looked down, it
was only a 120-degree arc.
The entire building was only three stories tall, but each floor was about six to seven meters tall. It was built from solid and simple grayish-white rocks. Sturdy stone pillars supported the entire building, filled with the
beauty of power.
Most of the floor-to-ceiling windows on every floor had shattered, revealing the Orcs standing inside.
All of them had ferocious expressions. They held javelins or axes in their hands, and a small portion of them carried huge crossbows on their backs. It looked like they were archers. However, if those crossbows were
used by people, ordinary people would definitely not be able to pull them open.
Dawn Library.
Only the plain and unremarkable sign board remained intact at the center of the building.
Yan Chong had never been here before. Richard’s house was located at the southwest edge of the town, while the library was about two kilometers to the northeast of the town center. Yan Chong hadn’t visited this
place before.
The design of this library was really not bad. Yan Chong’s eyes lit up, and he had the urge to study in it.
Due to the fact that the two of them were in an invisible barrier, the orcs did not attack them.
After a quick glance, Yan Chong recognized three of the remaining elite warriors and the Orc Chief. There were more than twenty ordinary Orc warriors around them.
Most of the time, one did not need to read all the targets one by one. By relying on one’s mind perception, one could roughly sense the other party’s aura and roughly know the other party’s strength level.
Race: Black Iron Ore
Job: Berserker
Battle Power: B-
Power: 13.2, Agility: 6.5, Intelligence: 2.0
Constitution: 10.7, Spirit: 2.0, Charm: 1.4

Yan Chong pursed his lips when he saw that the Orc Chieftain’s charm was 1.4. Although the Orc Chieftain’s body was full of power and beauty, exuding an invisible domineering aura, it still did not suit his aesthetic
taste.
Loli glanced at Yan Chong and smiled. “Do you want to try fighting a Silver rank Orc with your current strength at the peak of Black Iron rank?”
Yan Chong rolled his eyes speechlessly when he heard that. Although he could be considered to have crossed realms to fight, he only succeeded in his sneak attack while the other party was asleep. After that, he only
relied on his superior combat skills—Maka Fighting Skill C+, Court Swordsmanship C+, in addition to the interference of magic, to crush ordinary Ore Warriors of the same level.
But now, it was better for him to prepare for his funeral rather than face a Grade B expert.
“Haha, I don’t have that ability. It’s all up to you, Boss!” Yan Chong waved his hand and took half a step back, indicating that he was determined to suck up to Loli.
Loli didn’t seem to mind. Then she crossed her arms over her chest, her lips parted, and began to recite a light, mystical chant. Three seconds later, a warm silver light spread out from her body, forming a hemisphere
with a radius of ten meters. Yan Chong was also enveloped in it.
nstantly, Yan Chong felt his entire body brimming with energy. His mind was also invigorated as he hurriedly looked at his attributes.
