Random Treasure Chests in Full-Time Magician

Chapter 108 High-Level Space System

"Damn it, this land route is just like the sea route in One Piece. It's like walking from Xiamen in Fujian to Shenyang and Dalian!" Zhao Manyan complained, extremely dissatisfied.

"The Caribbean Sea is right next to us, won't there be pirates or something?" Jiang Yu asked immediately afterward.

"I don't know if there are Caribbean pirates, but there is indeed a notorious gang roaming among these countries with close maritime borders. Their damage to the countries around this area is second only to the Black Vatican," Nan Jue said.

"We'd better not run into them or get robbed on the road. We have several beautiful women in our group," Zhao Manyan said in a low voice.

"Hmph, I heard that people in America prefer handsome young men like you!" Jiang Shaoxu said with a snort as he stood next to Bai Feng.

"Alright, crossing the Galilee Sea is better than going to the Amazon rainforest for training. The Amazon rainforest is home to an uncounted demon empire, with tribes and clans everywhere. You can't possibly come out alive if you go in there!" Jiang Yu, the encyclopedia of demons, said.

Yes, if Amazon were to classify things by color, it would be all red, and further down would be an exaggeratedly deep purple, where you'd practically be walking on demons.

They traveled for several days following the route Nan Jue had planned in advance. As for why they didn't take a ship, how many members of the National Government team were water-based, and how many of them could unleash their full strength when encountering demons?

The group traveled through coconut trees and passed through many villages, towns, and cities. When they were tired, they would find a town or city to rest for the night. Most of these houses were made of wood.

"Strange, why have I only met men along the way? I haven't even encountered a woman." Zhao Manyan was extremely frustrated. He hadn't had sex in a long time and was probably feeling lonely.

"It must be because of those pirates. There were no bounties posted in any of the towns along the way, only bounties for those pirates. But the price is so low, no wonder no one is taking the bounty." Nan Jue rolled her eyes, feeling that being the vice captain was really tiring.

"A bounty?!" Mo Fan's eyes lit up when he heard there was a bounty, but his spirits drooped again when he heard the reward wasn't much.

After passing through another small village, Bai Feng suddenly sensed that the girls in the National Government team were all feeling joy and surprise.

"???" Three question marks appeared on Bai Feng's forehead. Using his Observation Haki, he sensed the surroundings and saw that the area bordered the sea, with hilly, terraced terrain. Beautiful little wooden and thatched huts were scattered across the mountainside, and a delicate white path wound its way up the mountain. On either side grew a crimson-colored herb, making the entire village seem like a fairytale—beautiful and enchanting, with mountains, paths, flowers, and houses…

"Why don't we rest here for a day..." Jiang Shaoxu suggested, her eyes sparkling.

"But we've only been resting for a short while, haven't we?" Ai Jiangtu said, oblivious to the romantic implications.

Upon hearing this, even Nan Jue glared fiercely at Ai Jiangtu. Nan Rongni and Mu Tingying, who were sitting next to him, also wholeheartedly agreed to take a day off. Even Mu Ningxue, who was usually so icy, was pleasantly surprised.

Helpless, Ai Jiangtu led the Nationalist government members down the hill.

The scent of the crimson herbs growing all over the hillsides by the roadside was not pungent at all, but rather refreshing, as if one could see houses built with cream cakes, strawberries, and fruit if one walked further up.

Continuing uphill, just as the group reached the halfway point, they came across a simple thatched hut by the path. A table and chairs were placed in front of the hut, and inside was a woman adorned with ornaments from head to toe.

She glanced at Bai Feng and his group, her eyes initially showing some strangeness, perhaps wondering why Asians were here, but she only paused for a moment.

"Lost travelers, are you looking for lodging in this dreamy little village, or do you have some other plans... Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't notice you already have female companions with you." The woman with the ornament smiled charmingly, without the slightest hint of restraint.

The woman's skin was dark, yet it shimmered with an alluring glow; it was clean, elastic, and possessed a wildness that was absent in many Eastern women.

Zhao Manyan's eyes lit up when he saw the woman, and he immediately went up to her and started chatting. It was obvious that he was trying to pick her up.

Bai Feng, however, was a step ahead of Zhao Manyan. Using his ethereal footwork, he appeared before the woman as if by teleportation. With one hand around her neck, he removed his blindfold and used his Illusionary Eyes to ask, "Name!"

"Oni!" the wild woman said blankly.

Everyone saw Bai Feng grab the other person's neck and was about to speak to stop him when they heard the woman's reply.

"What is your identity?" Bai Feng continued to ask.

"The elder of the Crimson Ornament Guild's pirate crew!"

Bai Feng looked back at everyone, while Mo Fan's eyes lit up. After all, he had only come to take a look, but who knew that the pirate would come right up to him? He would gladly accept it!

"What is the purpose of your visit here?"

"The herbs in this village are selling like hotcakes, so we're here to let them buy back the herbs we managed to snatch!"

Upon hearing this, everyone except those few cowards showed expressions of anger. This was nothing short of a scheme to get something for nothing! They robbed the goods and then forced them to be sold back to the villagers. What arrogant pirates!

How many people are up there?

"I don't know, I didn't specifically invite them, but there should be about fifty Red Ornament members!"

"Want to pull off a heist?" Bai Feng asked, turning his head to the side.

"Let's do it! How can we refuse a bounty that's been handed to us?" Mo Fan was the first to speak!

Bai Feng looked towards Ai Jiangtu, who nodded in agreement.

Without saying a word, Bai Feng snapped Ouni's neck. Everyone looked at Bai Feng in confusion. Weren't they going to arrest her and hand her over to the municipal government? Why did you just kill her?

"These pirates are robbing so openly, there must be someone protecting them. Let's just take their heads and claim the bounty." Bai Feng twisted Ouni's head off with his spatial power and explained calmly.

The group suddenly realized what was happening, and were immediately filled with rage. The local government was allowing pirates to oppress the people; they were scum and despicable!

Bai Feng placed Ouni's head into a new storage bracelet, and then led the group toward the village on the mountain.

Not far from the village, a group of monks dressed in red and adorned with ornaments confronted some simple-looking villagers.

The leader of the red-adorned members was only a high-level mage, and the weakest one at that.

Bai Feng said to his teammates, "Later, we'll pretend we're all pirates. That way, the pirates will most likely not kidnap the ordinary villagers."

Bai Feng's words struck a chord with Nan Jue and Ai Jiangtu. Aren't these military mages here to protect ordinary people?
