Chapter 2000 - 1993: Money Is Meant to Be Spent
"Today, all of you will definitely return empty-handed!"
"I bet even Supreme Coins won’t drop from your Warcraft hunt!"
"None of you should dream of getting a single Supreme Crystal, and a Supreme Weapon dropping is completely impossible."
"I hope when you’re hunting Warcraft, you’ll all end up with broken arms and legs, absolutely not unharmed and enriched."
...
Zhang Menglong initially didn’t plan to reveal his abilities in front of them, but since everyone figured it out, Zhang Menglong had no choice. Under their persistent pestering, Zhang Menglong agreed to their request.
Everyone who received Zhang Menglong’s "blessing" was elated, and those seemingly unlucky words sounded more delightful than any sweet talk they’ve ever heard.
Of course, there were still many who were skeptical of Zhang Menglong’s jinx, as these abilities sounded absurd. However, seeing the plentiful rewards of Zhang Menglong and Ying Zheng, they felt they shouldn’t doubt the reliability of this ability.
Quickly, they got a chance to verify. As they ventured deeper, they encountered a group of Wind Demons!
Wind Demons are social Warcraft, with individual strength around Lord Level to King Level. Generally, a group will have a Royal Level leader, with the smallest group consisting of five to six hundred individuals.
This race of Wind Demons has about 800 individuals, and their leader is a gigantic Wind Demon newly at Royal Level.
The Wind Demon’s appearance resembles a lizard with wings. Lord Level Wind Demons have one pair of wings, while King Level grows a second pair, and Royal Level often has three pairs.
Their Attack Power isn’t particularly strong among Warcraft, but their speed and reaction abilities are top-notch, as they can manipulate air currents for combat. The powerful Wind Blades can leave opponents covered in wounds.
The Wind Demon leader measures around 500 meters, resembling an ugly earth dragon. Its skin is light gray, covered in light blue scales, and looks formidable.
Now, this group of Wind Demons has become a delicacy in the eyes of the martial artists. Blessed by Zhang Menglong’s jinx, they believe they will harvest greatly from this battle.
"I’ll take this one!"
"I’ll handle this one!"
"That one is for us two!"
All martial artists immediately identified their targets. The most important thing in hunting at Wind Whisper Plains is swift combat. If delayed too long and other Warcraft are drawn in, the situation becomes perilous.
The Wind Demons also immediately noticed this aggressive group of Humans. The leader roared, and over 800 Wind Demons swept towards the martial artists.
This definitely won’t be an easy battle.
The number of martial artists isn’t much greater than the Wind Demons. Generally, Warcraft are slightly stronger than martial artists of the same level, and their strength remains very close.
To deal with this group of Warcraft, they’ll certainly have to pay a price. If luck isn’t on their side, someone might even perish midway.
But as the chaos began, they found the battle surprisingly easy.
Some martial artists casually launched an attack that landed right at the Wind Demons’ vital spots, causing them huge damage.
At times, when the Wind Demons repelled the martial artists and prepared to attack, a fellow Wind Demon flew over and collided with them, leaving them utterly disoriented.
A martial artist was cut by a Wind Blade, leaving a deep gash on his chest, yet he had to continue a maneuvered struggle against the Wind Demon while sipping a red potion to heal his wounds.
But unexpectedly, another Wind Demon unleashing a Wind Blade was struck by a Human martial artist. Half of its attack suddenly diverted towards the Wind Demon that was about to attack him.
They are all Wind Demons, but their attacks fail to distinguish between friend and foe. The hundreds of Wind Blades quickly enveloped the Wind Demon.
That Wind Demon hurriedly released Wind Blades to defend itself, but still, some Wind Blades broke through its defense, leaving numerous wounds on its body.
Seeing this, the martial artist immediately charged forward, despite his injuries. Opportunities must be seized; this was his golden chance to kill the Wind Demon!
Indeed, as the Wind Demon was enveloped by the Wind Blades, the martial artist’s attack landed furiously on the Wind Demon.
The Wind Demon screamed, finally falling from the sky.
"Such good luck. If this Wind Demon hadn’t been hit by its own kind’s Wind Blades, not only would I not have killed it, I might not even have survived to return home."
But this kind of luck didn’t just happen to him; some people’s luck was even more extraordinary!
Some people’s random attacks hit vital spots, and others faced Wind Demons whose skills accidentally harmed other Wind Demons.
Even when some were set to face a deadly attack, strange occurrences saved their lives. By the end of the battle, not a single person had died, and no one was severely injured—just mild injuries at most.
However, the battle’s rewards were unfathomably abundant. Maybe Zhang Menglong’s Management Studies have some limits because so many people didn’t explode like Ying Zheng, but every Wind Demon’s death dropped at least a dozen or twenty items.
Over 800 Wind Demons somehow dropped nearly 200 Supreme Crystals, and the number of red and blue potions combined was enough for them to engage in two more battles of similar intensity.
Moreover, 17 Supreme Weapons and 12 sets of armor dropped, alongside a bunch of miscellaneous items.
Looking at the rewards, if Zhang Menglong kept using this jinx skill daily, it wouldn’t take more than a few months for all to gather 100 million Supreme Coins or 100 Supreme Crystals!
This time, no one doubted Zhang Menglong’s mouth anymore. When others speak, they express hopes for future events. When Zhang Menglong speaks, he determines the future events!
"Menglong, take these items!"
After some discussion, aside from Supreme Coins and Supreme Crystals that couldn’t be gifted, they gave Zhang Menglong half of the battle’s rewards.
"What are you doing?" Zhang Menglong was caught off guard by their actions.
"Menglong, don’t be modest. We know this is all your achievement. Our harvest is brought to us by you. If you don’t take these items, we won’t sleep soundly tonight!"
"No, no, I can’t accept them," Zhang Menglong said. "I just moved my mouth, but you all risked your lives, and everyone worked so hard here; these things can improve your lives."
Zhang Menglong thought of the shabby houses and the food that everyone ate every day in the survival base. "I mean, when you earn money, you have to spend it. Saving won’t accumulate much; we should improve our quality of life. If you don’t want these items, I’ll donate them to renovate our survival base!"
