Between the real and the fake, they, the local officials, were unable to figure out the true strength of the City Lord, let alone the outsiders.
At the same time, civilians who were watching from a distance without knowing the full story, sensed the other partys ill intentions, one by one involuntarily showed signs of anxiety.
Their gaze collectively turned towards Leo Ray, who was standing calmly between the flying airships.
Many young boys and girls even closed their eyes and began to pray for their respected City Lord.
On the other side, faced with the formidable power of the opposing camp, Leo Ray simply smiled and nodded to Taylor.
Without a doubt, since they had already met with the Fifth Princess of the Coldme Kingdom, they naturally needed to intimidate the other party to the fullest extent possible while preserving some of their trump cards.
This would pave the way for their future actions and gain the initiative in the conversation.
In this way, no matter the other partys intentions, they must make it clear who was the master of Cyan Town.
Leave it to me, My Lord, Taylor said.
Having received his orders, Taylor, carrying the Dragon-ying Giant Sword, respectfully saluted Leo Ray.
Then, with slow steps, he walked alone to the front of the over two hundred Coldme warriors.
Seeing this scene, including Princess Ailier, the people of the Coldme Kingdom couldnt help but be taken aback.
Immediately after, one after another, their mocking and disdainful eyes were cast upon him.
Each of these warriors had been carefully selected by the Coldme Royal Family, and each of them was an elite among elites who were peerless among their counterparts.Moreover, there was Princess, a Tier 3 Pinnacle
Powerhouse, and the two Kingdom Generals who are Tier Senior Powerhouses.
Such a lineup would be considered awe-inspiring in any Coldme City.
But this burly man seemed to be nning on suppressing the energy of their group of more than 200 singlehandedly? It was a sheer fantasy!
It seemed that this remote area Lord, who had disrespected Princess, was just aughable and overconfident fool.
Just as the Coldme powerhouses sneered at this thought,
At Leo Rays signal, the burly man, Taylor, erupted with an immense and boundless aura.
In an instant, his torrential forcepletely suppressed the energy of the more than 200 people facing him.
The Coldme Powerhouses felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them from the sky, giving them no chance to resist.
Tier Tier 5 Powerhouse?!
Following this, a trembling voice filled with disbelief rang out from the crowd of Coldme Powerhouses, quickly spreading to everyones ears.
As these powerhouses who had been in the Royal Capital for many years, they knew better than anyone else what a Tier 5 Powerhouse meant.
It represented the pinnacle ofbat strength in the country, the absolute symbol of royal power!
Realizing this, the arrogant Coldme powerhouses suddenly felt like ducks with their necks pinched, gasping for breath.
When they looked at Leo Ray, their eyes no longer held contempt, only disbelief and a hint of respect.
Having the loyalty of a Tier 5 Powerhouse undoubtedly proved that the man in front of them, with his calm demeanor, had the terrifying ability to annihte all of them with just a snap of his fingers!
At the same time, the most unbelievable of all were Princess Ariel herself and the two Kingdom Generals beside her.
Especially the woman in the white Priest Robe who was a Tier 4 Powerhouse, her fair face full of astonishment as she stared at Leo Ray in disbelief.
Although they had received information earlier that Cyan Town might have a Tier 5 Powerhouse, the myriad of news that came out was confusing and difficult to distinguish between true and false.
So, everyone unanimously believed that the other party was just bluffing.
After all, even their Coldme Royal Family had the loyalty of only two Tier 5 Powerhouses, and the same went for the neighboring Saint Night Kingdom. From this, it could be seen that such top-level powerhouses were not easily found.
Your Highness, I have seen all the registered Tier 5 Powerhouses in both our Coldme Kingdom and the neighboring Saint Night Kingdom, and this man is clearly not among them, an elderly, trembling voice sounded. The white-haired old man in shiny te armor and carrying a giant battle-axe was the first to react and bow to the Princess Ariel.
I didnt expect the other party to actually have the loyalty of a Tier 5
Powerhouse
At this moment, the delicate and wless face of Princess Ariel was full of amazement. It took a while before she regained herposure, and an air of grace quietly emerged again.
It was important to know that their Coldme Royal Family was the absolute ruler of thisnd.
Not only did they have the loyalty of two Tier 5 Powerhouses, but also countless lower-tier Powerhouses, making their foundation incredibly deep.
Therefore, even if the other party had a Tier 5 Powerhouse, they could not make the haughty Princess Coldme bow!

After a while, the momentum emanating from both sides on the square gradually subsided.
Princess Ariel, with knitted brows, gently ran her fingers through her hair that had been messed up by Taylors overwhelming energy wave, and began reorganizing her thoughts.
Due to the still chaotic atmosphere on the square,
Though she could not currently discern the strength of the young man himself and the others behind him,
On her side, she undoubtedly still had two of the most elite Tier 2 Powerhouse middle teams.
As such, even if a conflict erupted between the two sides, as long as there was a way to hold off that Tier 5 Powerhouse for a while, her side wouldnt bepletely without a chance of winning.
After all, the elite soldiers on the other side were merely at themon Tier 1 level.
Hermand, however, included 2 Tier 4 Powerhouses, 10 Tier 3
Powerhouses, and nearly 200 Tier 2 elite fighters!
Forget it, lets call it a draw this time.
Just as Princess Ariels frown unfolded and she started to feel a little smug about this,
Another astonishing thing happened that left her speechless.
On the other side, Leo Ray seemed to see through her thoughts and casually waved his hand again.
In an instant, his subordinates behind him, Gideon ck, Serena rk, Ste rk, Scarlett, Abigail, and Amelia, all began to release their full power.
At the same time, the tidy sounds of boots hitting the ground and the crisp shes of armor rang out one after another.
The two Tier 2 Great Swordsman Squads and the Tier 2 Mage Squad on their side promptly emerged in formation from the nearby street corner.
Under the brilliant sunlight, their Tier 3 Equipment shone brightly on all three formations, making ones eyes dazzle involuntarily.
Most importantly, the formidable momentum emanating from each formation was no weaker than any of the Coldme formations opposite.
Seeing this, both the officials and maids of Cyan Town on the square and themoners in the distance couldnt help but burst into cheers, their faces full of excitement.
On the other hand, the powerful members of Coldme once again revealed dumbfounded expressions, and waves of shock churned within their hearts.
Without a doubt, from this moment on, the fighting strength under this young mansmand had begun to overpower them in both quality and quantity, and in all directions!
It turns out that the troops at the beginning werent the opponents elite?
Realizing this, Ariels mouth dropped open slightly, and a hint of surprise once again appeared on her pretty face.
She had never expected the other side to be capable of such a show of force!
By the young mans side, there is 1 Tier 5 Powerhouse, 1 Tier 4 Powerhouse, 5 Tier 3 Powerhouses, and in the three elite middle teams that just arrived, there are 5 more Tier 3 Powerhouses, plus the initial 3 and 300 Tier 2 elite fighters
Next to Ariel, the knowledgeable Tier 4 white-haired old man couldnt help but furrow his brow, his aged face filled with a solemn expression.
Witnout a doubt, s tormldable power could only De described as terrltymg.
800 sets of valuable Tier 3 Equipment?! And the Mage Squad is equipped with the extremely rare Tier 3 Magic Robes?!
On the other side, the Tier 4 female cleric licked her red lips and quietly swallowed.
Then she thought to herself in amazement: Such a vast amount of wealth, Im afraid only a few of the major aristocratic families canpare with it, right?ln summary, whether it was Ariel herself, her two kingdom generals, or other Coldme powerhouses, they were all undoubtedly in a state of overwhelming shock again.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded satisfactorily since what he needed was precisely this effect.
However, at this moment, he also clearly understood that the struggle between his side and these people was just beginning.
Especially Princess Ariel, who was a member of the royal family, and the two Tier 4 powerhouses who were likely high-ranking members of Coldme Kingdom, were obviously notparable to their previous opponents.
After all, the Coldme Royal Family that they were loyal to still had an overwhelming strength against his side.
All in all, we should find out the purpose of their visit as soon as possible. I dont believe that the fifth princess of the prestigious Coldme has traveled all the way to this remote town just for a Coldme Royal mission, thought Leo Ray at this moment, as he continued to ponder while looking at the princess and her party who were still in a daze.
ording to the information gathered earlier, because of the struggle for the throne in the royal capital, this princess, who also had the right to inherit the throne, was still a thorn in the side of her several prince brothers, despite her weak power.
Moreover, ording to his previous spection, it was highly likely for the princess to seek refuge voluntarily.
This was the reason why he had just deterred the other party without any scruples since they would not easily leave here.
Anyway, if they are indeed here to seek refuge, then thats perfect.
By then, not only could his side manage to obtain arge amount of information about the Coldme Royal Family to formte the next action n, but also, if he could turn this Coldme Princess into his direct subordinate and help her seize the throne, the entire Coldme Kingdom would undoubtedly be under his control. Of course, this path was fraught with difficulties and a long way to go.
However, if the other party made any movements, he would naturally have to keep them in check to ensure the situation waspletely under his control.
At this thought, Leo Ray became somewhat excited and braced himself.
He then said, Alright, if you dont want to leave, follow me inside. If you can act ording to my way, I will treat you as honored guests.
Your Excellency, dont be too arrogant!
Hearing this, the Tier 4 female cleric couldnt help but frown and said coldly, After all, this is still the territory of our Coldme Kingdom. Dont forget that!
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, First, Im not from your
Coldme Kingdom, and second, whether this ce still belongs to the
Coldme Kingdom after I take control of it will depend on my mood.
How dare you! Even if you are a Tier 5 Powerhouse, once the Coldme army arrives here, you will be annihted along with everything else!
Hearing this, the Tier 4 female cleric stepped forward angrily and shouted.
You should take care of your own house first. In the face of domestic and foreign troubles caused by the struggle for the throne and border wars, if you still have the strength, juste at us, and Ill apany you to the end, said Leo Ray with a slight smile.
His expression suddenly turned icy cold, and he continued in a deep voice, Of course, if any of you here have any ill intentions, I dont mind making the Coldme Kingdom lose one of its princesses from now on.
On the other hand, at this moment, Ariel could not help but swallow, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Right now, the pitch-ck eyes of this young man were undoubtedly filled with genuine killing intent..
Chapter 254 - 254: Hall Meeting (Part 1)_1
Chapter 254: Hall Meeting (Part 1)_1
Trantor: 549690339
At this point, both Princess Ariel herself and the two Tier 4 generals by her side couldnt help but exchange nces.
Without a doubt, their superior attitudes and the various tactics of coercion and bribery employed by the Coldme Royal Family werepletely useless against the young man before them.
Moreover, from his eyes, one could clearly see
If they made any dishonorable moves, he would not hesitate to eliminate them all, perhaps even including the noble Ariel.
At this moment, under the brilliant sun, the vast square was full of blooming flowers and green grass, making the scene warm and cozy everywhere.
However, the hearts of the Coldme powerhouses present were already as if they had fallen into an ice cave, continuously sending out chills.
The indifferent young man before them, whose gentle demeanor hid a bone-chilling decisiveness and cruelty.
Your Highness, in the view of this old servant, the meaning in the other partys words has already been very clear.
After a moment of silence, the Tier 4 white-haired elder in heavy te armor slightly nodded his head.
Then, bowing to Ariel, he said, That is, we must put aside our pride and act with the etiquette and demeanor of a proper diplomatic envoy to gain the other partys respect.
Your Highness, the old general has a point.
On the other side, although the fair-faced woman still carried a trace of anger on her face, the Tier 4 female knight couldnt help but nod, and then whispered, This man is obviously one who is hard to deal with, belonging to the most difficult kind of person.
Furthermore, the sheer strength he has disyed on the surface alone is already astonishing.
Therefore, though its infuriating, at this point, its more advantageous for us to be allies with this annoying man rather than opponents.
After all, we have almost nowhere to shelter in the royal capital at this stage.
I understand that, but this carefree man makes me so angry that my teeth itch.
Ariel couldnt help but sigh lightly, furrowing her cute nose and murmuring to herself, Forget it, theres no other choice now.
As she said this, Ariel stepped forward, flicking her slightly curled long hair and trying to maintainposure as she cleared her throat.
Then, somewhat reluctantly, she said, Fine, since you truly invite me sincerely, I will give you face and let you lead the way.
At this point, even though she still appeared proud, her voice had unconsciously softened a lot, andpared to before, it was clearlycking confidence.
It seems that this is the Princesss final stubbornness.
On the other side, seeing that she had forcibly found a way to save face for herself, Leo Ray shrugged slightly and said nothing further. He then led his subordinates directly towards the City Lords Mansion.
Without a doubt, after the confrontation just now, they had already achieved their predetermined goal: to intimidate their opponent to the greatest extent possible while preserving their trump cards.
Thus, they were able to crush their opponents spirits while taking control of further conversations.
Most importantly, it allowed the other party to clearly understand that if they wanted to make any moves in Cyan Town, all they would face would be utter disaster.
And so, after a short while.
Leo Ray was already seated on the throne in the first-floor main hall of the City Lords Mansion. Behind him stood Taylor and Gideon ck.
On the other side, in the spacious and brightly lit hall.
On the left-hand side of the lower part of the hall.
In order were Rhizoma Drynariae, the two Cyan Town Defense Army Battalion Commanders, Serena rk, Ste rk, Scarlett, Abigail, and Amelia, a total of 8 people.
On the right-hand side.
There were the opposing forces: the old man in Tier 1+ te Armor, the young woman in a Tier 4 pure white Priest Robe, five Tier 3 Female Servants, and acting as a neutral force were Linda and Mason Banks.
As for the most important Princess Ariel, she naturally received VIP treatment, sitting next to Leo Rays throne on a luxurious armchair that had been obviously sawed shorter by a section.
Furthermore, the two elite squads brought by the opposing side and other apanying personnel were all arranged in an idle barracks not far from the City Lords Mansion.
Of course, there were also the two Great Swordsman Squads and a Mage Squad following Leo Ray who came to keep a close watch on the opposing sides every move.
Alright, lets cut the small talk and get straight to the point.
Seeing that everyone was in ce, Leo Ray nodded slightly, signaling the maid on standby to serve tea to Princess Ariel, and then spoke.
Thats just what this princess intended.
On the other side, Ariel, who had obviously been lowered by a section, knew that Leo Ray had done it on purpose. She couldnt help but twitch the corners of her mouth, suppressing the anger in her heart and still pretending to be calm.
Next, through Ariels brief introduction, Leo Ray learned.
Those two powerful Tier 4 Powerhouses were both among the Eight Great Kingdom Generals loyal to the Coldme Royal Family.
The white-haired old man in armor, wielding a battle-axe, was Giant Axe General Burt.
And the young woman in a pure white priest robe, with a longsword at her waist, was Holy Light General Joshua.
Eight Great Kingdom Generals? Interesting. If nothing unexpected happens, these two Kingdom Generals should be the supporters of the Fifth Princess.
At this moment, Leo Ray couldnt help but fall into contemtion: However, their main forces do not seem to have appeared. It is clear that there must be something peculiar about this, and I must find an opportunity to ask carefullyter.
Through his understanding during this period, he clearly realized.
In this world, those who can truly be called generals are at least corpsmanders leading an army of ten thousand.
In other words, this also indirectly proves that the Coldme Royal Family alone has at least eight legions of troops.
Moreover, other Coldme cities, whenbined, would indeed be a terrifying number for the current themselves.
After all, at this stage, the friendly forces only have Cyan Town and Maron City, these two small towns.
But having said that, the hereditary territories of Joshua Bingaman and Orion
Wolfe must be thoroughly pacifiedter. With their identities as heirs to the counts family, it should not be difficult to achieve this.
Once this is done, our strength will be further increased, and we must also find an opportunity to carefully investigate the other cities around Cyan Town and Maron City.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray cheered up, and introduced his subordinates in a simple manner again.
When both sides had politely greeted each other, Leo Ray did not hesitate to continue speaking to Ariel, So, dear Fifth Princess, tell me the real purpose of youring here..
Chapter 255 - 255: Hall Meeting (Part 2)_1
Chapter 255: Hall Meeting (Part 2)_1
Trantor: 549690339
The real purpose?
On the other side, Princess Ariel blinked her clear starry eyes, with a matter-of-fact expression, replying: Of course, its to carry out a mission for my Coldme Royal Family.
If you are willing to rece the former City Lord, swear loyalty to the royal family, continue to pay taxes to the Royal Capital, and fulfill relevant obligations during war.
Then I, on behalf of the Coldme Royal Family, will appoint you as the new
Lord of Cyan Town and grant you all the authority of a City Lord.
Hearing this, Leo Ray stroked his chin while nodding thoughtfully.
Without a doubt, everything that the other party said was exactly as he had expected when taking over Cyan Town.
It seems that under the circumstances of internal power struggles and border wars within the Coldme Kingdom, they obviously dont want to spend more energy focusing on Cyan Town, a remote and obscure little town.
It can be seen that as long as they agree to be loyal to the Coldme Royal
Family and not expand their power further, they would be in a rtively safe state, at least until their opponents free up their resources to deal with them.
However, correspondingly, once their opponents havepletely solved these internal and external problems, they would undoubtedly face an unexpected invasion from the Coldme army, leading to their utter destruction.
After all, by killing the former City Lord protected by the Coldme, they were challenging the authority of the entire Coldme Royal Family. Therefore, in order to save face, the other party must be waiting for the opportunity to retaliate andpletely eliminate them.
The so-called pledge of loyalty is nothing more than a ploy to deceive them.
On this point, I, Linda, Mason Banks, Rhizoma Drynariae, Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, both of whom are nobles of Coldme, as well as Gunner
Santons, who is very familiar with the Coldme Kingdom, have discussed and unanimously reached the same conclusion.
So, they will naturally not stop here and fall into the others trap.
If they want to y schemes with the Great Summer People with their glorious history, these original inhabitants of the Otherworld are still a bit
naive.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray picked up a porcin cup, took a sip of the fragrant tea handed over by a maid, and continued pondering.
Overall, it can be fully determined that the currently self-busy Coldme Royal Family does not have any ns to take action against them.
They can take advantage of the other partys dying tactic and give them a taste of their medicine.
Pretend to agree to their conditions on the surface, allowing them to let their guard down, all while continuing to rapidly expand their power in secret.
As the saying goes, Take advantage of others illnesses, and take their lives. Its impossible for me to be executed. Whoever goes against me will end up burned.
No matter who it is, in the end, they will only have the path of self-immtion.
Realizing this, Leo Ray put down the porcin cup and fell into contemtion again.
Speaking of which, since the purpose of the envoy group has been answered, its naturally the turn of Princess Ariels real purpose foring here.
Although she just spoke sternly, her face was obviously a bit unnatural.
It seems that the other party is not a person who is good at hiding things, and with a little effort, the truth will soon be revealed.
With that in mind, Leo Ray didnt hesitate to turn his body and said to Ariel, I agree. Cyan Town is willing to return to the jurisdiction of the Coldme Royal Family.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Leo Ray continued, After attending the wee banquet I prepared for you all, you can go back this afternoon and report back.
This way, the wee banquet and farewell banquet can bebined.
What!? At his words, Princess Ariel blinked her big eyes, which could almostpete with Scarletts, and her face was full of confusion.
At the same time, Giant Axe General Burt and Holy Light General Joshua, seated below, also began to look puzzled at each other.
What is going on with the young City Lord, who was just scoffing at the Coldme Royal Family? Now hes willing to submit so easily?
This huge contrast is too difficult to understand. What is the ulterior motive of this guy?
Leaving this afternoon?
On the other side, although Ariel still maintained an elegant smile on her delicate cheeks,
there was obviously some unnaturalness in her words as she replied, Even if you agree immediately, we still need toplete corresponding procedures, such as signing various paper contracts. Itll take us at least a week or even half a month!
Signing a contract takes this long?
Looking at her slightly flustered expression, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a yful smile before continuing, Its alright, just leave the corresponding officials behind.
As a distinguished member of the royal family, my dear Her Highness the Fifth
Princess, you must be overwhelmed with countless tasks for the Coldme Royal Family. How can our little Cyan Town dare to take up so much of your time? Therefore, please leave this afternoon.
How could I possibly not have a say in it? You want me to leave, and I just leave?
ying with the elegant silver pendant on her chest, Ariel Watson forcefully argued, Originally, I was thinking about leaving early, but now that youve said it, Im going to stay a few more days!
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips.
No wonder shes the Fifth Princess of Coldme. Her skill in bickering is much more advanced than that of ordinary people.
Realizing this point, Leo Ray simply stopped bickering and said with an unquestionable tone, Anyway, if there are no other reasons, all of you here must leave Cyan Town immediately this afternoon!
This
Hearing this, not only was Princess Ariel puzzled, but even General Bert and the female General Joshua who were seated at the lower position couldnt help but look at each other in confusion.
In the past, every time a royal envoy group was sent,
the City Lords would all want to keep the envoy group for a few more days, so they could get along well with the officials from the royal capital while enjoying food, drinks, and sightseeing, in case of unforeseen needs.
However, this young man in front of them is not following the usual procedure.
He even mentionedbining the wee banquet and farewell banquet, which is unheard of!
What do you really want?
Indignant, Princess Ariel took a deep breath and said angrily, What if I dont want to leave and want to stay here for a while?
Thats not impossible.
With a faint smile, seeing that the time was ripe, Leo Ray went straight to the point, So, back to the previous question, my dear Her Highness the Fifth Princess, tell us your real purpose foring here..
Chapter 256 - 256: Hall Meeting (Part 2)_1
Chapter 256: Hall Meeting (Part 2)_1
Trantor: 549690339
Hearing this, Burt and Joshua, who were sitting below, both showed expressions of sudden realization.
So, thats why the other partys attitude changed so quickly; they had already dug a hole here.
From this, it can be seen that the other party obviously detected something.
They might have even guessed the increasingly harsh survival environment of Princess Ariel in the Royal Capital.
Upon realizing this, both of them couldnt help but sigh softly.
It seemed that this new City Lord of Cyan Town was undoubtedly more difficult to deal with than they imagined.
But, ording to rumors, the other party was just an Otherworldly Lord who hadnt been here for long. They should have very limitedinformation.
Why would they understand the current affairs of the Coldme Kingdom so well? It was simply baffling.
Didnt I already say it once before? Of course of course Im here on a diplomatic mission for my Coldme Royal Family.
On the other hand, Ariel still had an expression as if it were only natural, trying hard to maintain herposure.
However, from the fingers of her hand clutching her delicate pendant in front of her chest,pletely white due to the force, it was apparent that she wasnt as calm as she appeared.
Leo Ray, who noticed this keenly, raised his eyebrows slightly.
He then put on a determined expression and said, Fine, in that case, I have no choice but to send someone to escort you all back to the Royal Capital.
Wait wait a minute!
On the other side, Princess Ariel could no longer hold back and hurriedly spoke, I suddenly remembered, we indeed have another matter foring here.
Please tell me the details. Leo Ray nodded slightly, raised his hand slowly, and signaled the other party to continue.
Taking a deep breath, Ariel, with a somewhat solemn look on her face, continued, Im sure youve heard of it, havent you?
Recently, my brothers have been very active in the Royal Capital. They even frequently exchanged pleasantries with weapons, making the entire Royal Capital quite lively.
And due to my fathers advanced age and illness, he has no time to take care of my brothers.
As she said this, Princess Ariel adjusted the brilliant crown on her head, her face looking a little bleak for a moment.
But this weak look was fleeting.
Soon after, a refined and elegant look returned to her delicate cheeks: In short, I am a person who likes quietness, so naturally, I dont want to stay in a ce full of killings and disputes every day.
So, I took the opportunity of this diplomatic mission to rx a bit.
After listening to her exnation, Leo Ray picked up his porcin cup, took a sip of the freshly-added fragrant tea, and showed a thoughtful look.
Undoubtedly, judging from Ariels casual tone, it seemed that the situation in Coldme Royal City wasnt that chaotic.
However, further analyzing from her panicked expression just now about not wanting to return to the Royal Capital, the situation was obviously much more severe than what she had said.
After all, she was a member of the Coldme Royal Family and was naturally more cautious in her choice of words than others.
If my guess is not wrong, the struggle for the throne in the Coldme Royal
City should have entered a fierce stage, and it may even threaten Ariels personal safety.
Gently putting down the teacup in his hand, Leo Ray looked at Ariel, who was pretending to be calm, and continued to think.
Furthermore, as for why she chose toe to this Cyan Town, its actually easy to understand.
Firstly, this is a remote small town, far away from the Royal Capital. Even if there is a sudden crisis, there will be rtively sufficient time to react and prepare.
Secondly, my identity as an Otherworldly Lord who has just arrived not long ago,
is undoubtedly the only existence among all the City Lords of Coldme that can be confirmed not to have joined any Princes camp.
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray tapped the metal armrest of the throne with his fingers and nced at Ariel again.
So, as the Fifth Princess of Coldme, she chose toe to this Cyan Town.
Obviously, this can maximize her assurance that she wont be schemed against by a City Lord who has secretly joined one of the Princes camps.
After all, those who want her to disappear are only those Princes with the right of session to the throne.
Thebination of the two conditions above and the opportunity to venture to Cyan Town made it natural that the Fifth Princess of Coldme wouldnt easily miss it.
It seems that this should be her real motivation foring here.
Upon realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips upward slightly, thinking to himself in secret, Of course, although the other partys schemes are very detailed, as I thought before, for us, this is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Not only can we obtain extensive information about the Coldme Royal
Family, but we may even control the entire Coldme Kingdom through Ariels
nanas. Ims IS not an Imposs1D1e task.
At this moment, with some restlessness in his heart, Leo Rays gaze swept back and forth over the people below, his face showing a trace of solemnity. Having said that, in contrast, if Princess Ariel stayed here for too long, it would inevitably attract the attention of the other Princes.
It cannot be ruled out that these people would send arge number of spies and assassins into the city to gather intelligence and carry out assassinations.
By then, Cyan Town would naturally be the target of those Princes and their subordinate forces.
Therefore, our side must develop to a level where we can confront them before that moment arrives to better cope with such a crisis.
In short, perhaps this is what they call opportunities and challenges coexisting. I believe there will be many interesting things happening at that time.
With this thought, Leo Ray cheered up, ying with the teacup in his hand.
Then he said to Ariel, Alright, since our dear Her Highness the Fifth Princess has told us her true purpose, we are nowrades on the same boat.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray continued, Please follow me, I will have the maids take you to your respective rooms. When the banquet begins, I will send someone to inform you.
Upon hearing this, Princess Ariel and the two Kingdom Generals couldnt help but show puzzled expressions again.
Why did he go around in circles just to end it like this? Wouldnt he ask about other matters?
It had to be said that the young new City Lord in front of them was truly iprehensible.
While feeling puzzled, Princess Ariel and her party followed the maids upstairs to the City Lord Mansion under their guidance.
After the princess and her entourage left with confusion, only Leo Rays subordinates remained in the hall.
At this moment, he stroked his chin and fell into deep thought once more.
In order to ensure foolproof measures, he still needed to make some arrangements in the next steps and further obtain information from Ariel..

Trantor: 549690339
With that said, after pondering for a while, Leo Ray first nodded to Taylor, signaling him to envelop the entire hall with energy and iste itpletely from the outside world.
Then he said, Linda, when Im not here, Princess Ariel will definitelye to you for information about me.
At that time, the more mysterious and profound you can make it, the better. The main point is to keep them from figuring out our actual strength and the location of our territory.
Understood! Please rest assured, Lord!
Hearing this, Linda in her military uniform immediately bowed and saluted. Also, Linda, there is one more crucial task for you.
After a slight pause, Leo Ray picked up the delicate white porcin cup, took a sip of tea, and continued, ording to their strength, investigate the detailed information of the two Kingdom Generals, five Tier 3 Close Maids, and all the members of the two Royal Guard Squads around Princess Ariel as soon as
possible.
To conquer the Coldme Fifth Princesspletely, we must first start from the people around her.
Understood, Lord!
Hearing this, Linda promptly responded without hesitation.
Serena, Ste, starting today, you two will stay in Cyan Town temporarily and monitor every move of Ariel and her people.
As he said this, Leo Ray put down his teacup, and with a thought, two invisibility cloaks as thin as cicada wings appeared in his hand.
He waved to the twin sisters and said, With your current strength as Tier 3
Peak Assassins and the cloaking effect of the Invisibility Cloak, even the two Kingdom Generals with Tier 4 Senior Powerhouses-level strength will find it difficult to discover you, as long as you dont get too close.
Report any issues to me in time, including all of Princess Ariels words and deeds. Also, your other task is to assist the guards in preventing other assassins from infiltrating the City Lord Mansion.
Understood, Lord!
On the other side, Serena and Ste simultaneously saluted and respectfully replied.
Also, I will leave two Great Swordsman Squads and a Mage Squad here.
After taking another sip of tea, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and then continued, In addition, I will instruct Daisy Sasha to lead the Mage Squad and set up an Eye of Insight Magic Barrier within the City Lords Mansion.
In this way, besides the five Royal Guard Squads, the defense force of the Lords Mansion will be further strengthened, and we can better keep an eye on the movements of Princess Ariels two Royal Guard Squads.
At this point, Leo Ray turned to the middle-aged Defense Army Commander at his side and said, As for the specific position arrangements and coordination work in the middle, Rhizoma Drynariae, I will fully entrust it to you.
Understood, Lord!
With a crisp sound of armor shing, Rhizoma Drynariae stepped forward, bowed, and saluted.
Gideon ck, you should stay here for now as well. After all, they have two
Tier 4 Powerhouses. We must make sure that we leave no room for error.
Immediately after, Leo Ray shook the teacup in his hand and spoke to the muscr Priest, Gideon ck.
Leave it to me, Lord.
Elegantly bowing to Leo Ray, Gideons face showed a yful smile as he continued, Dont worry, my Lord, Im quite intrigued by the rare upation of a Tier 4 Female Holy Sword Priestess among the Holy-Light Priests. If they make any moves, I will definitely not show them mercy.
Very well.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray once again showed a thoughtful expression.
At this point, their own arrangements werepletely settled.ln this way, if Ariel and her party had other intentions, they would inevitably reveal their ws under Serena and Stes surveince in the short term.
Moreover, through Lindas investigation, they would be able to specifically and opportunistically recruit one or more of Ariels entourage.
They could then directly observe Ariels partys true situation through these people.
Only by taking both approaches could theyprehensively determine whether Ariel and the others had any other intentions or ideas that were detrimental to them.
Otherwise, even if they directly asked the other party about the Coldme Royal Familys intelligence, they might still receive false information.
This was precisely the reason why Leo Ray didnt hurry to use this approach earlier.
In summary, when dealing with Coldme Fifth Princess Ariel and her party, we must not be impatient and act with caution.
Draining the tea from the porcin cup, Leo Ray, sitting on the throne, said.
Understood, Lord!
Upon hearing those words, the various subordinates present bowed respectfully in unison.
All right, the banquet should be almost ready. Lets take a short break and then enjoy ourselves.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and smiled slightly.
Soon enough, their party arrived at the Banquet Hall next to the City Lord Mansions main hall.
The vast banquet hall was brightly lit by the light crystal stones that shone like LED lights.
On the long tables covered with white embroidered tablecloths, exquisite silver utensils held a variety of bread, meat, dairy products, pastries, and wines.
At a nce, the various delicacies and wines were neatly arranged, making it difficult for ones eyes to take it all in.
At the same time, the rich scent of meat mixed with spices and the caramel sweetness of freshly baked bread filled the air, causing an urge to salivate.
On the other side, Cyan Towns officials had been waiting here for a while. Upon seeing Leo Rays arrival, they bowed in respect, their faces full of reverence.
Without a doubt, the scene of this morning when the City Lord took action was deeply etched in the minds of each and every one of them.
Afterward, through Lindas introduction, Leo Ray gradually became acquainted with some of the key officials of Cyan Town.
Following that, Leo Ray simply greeted and encouraged everyone with various heartfelt words that he could easily deliver.
Regarding Linda and Mason Bankss issue, there was no problem with them appearing as the City Lords advisors, even if Ariels party asked about them.
They could also serve as members of the Sanders Family who had infiltrated the Otherworldly Lords inner circle, further concealing their true identities and preventing Ariels party from bing suspicious.
Everyone, as long as we work together sincerely and in unity, the future of Cyan Town will be increasingly beautiful and prosperous. Even bing the number one metropolis of Coldme is not an impossible task. At that time, each of you and I will be witnesses to this historic moment!
As Leo Ray was unknowingly turning the wee banquet into a personal speech,
Princess Ariel and her entourage arrived at the banquet venue, guided by several maids.
Dearest Fifth Princess, wee to my city.
Surrounded by his subordinates, Leo Ray stepped forward, smiling at Princess
Ariel..

Trantor: 549690339
Next, in a rxed and happy atmosphere.
Our people and Princess Ariel had a very satisfying wee banquet. During this process, Leo Ray naturally did not focus all his attention on the delicious food.
As a City Lord, he once againid down rules for Princess Ariel and her party in a tone that was half-threatening and half-negotiating, informing them that they could only move around the City Lords Mansion, garden, and courtyard without permission and were not allowed to leave this area.
Furthermore, besides the personal maids and the two Kingdom Generals,
The two Royal Guard Middle Teams and other apanying personnel were also forbidden from leaving the barracks.
As for the security work of the City Lord Mansion and surrounding areas, it was undertaken by our elite soldiers.
On the other hand, although Ariel was somewhat unwilling, she eventuallypromised under Leo Rays intimidation.
However, the only thing that rendered Leo Ray somewhat speechless was the princesss picky appetite.
Despite having hired the best chefs, bakers, and bartenders in Cyan Town for the event,
They only received a not badment from the other party, and that was only because they were afraid of Leo Ray bing difficult.
Its no wonder, after all, they are members of the royal family and have the best chefs in the entire Coldme Kingdom, so naturally, they must be a bit picky about food,
Looking at Princess Ariels figure in the distance, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips, taking a big bite of the crispy, greasy Frost Lamb Leg in his hand, and followed it with a sip of the sweet and sour Twin Moon Fruit Wine.
Thus, by the end of the banquet, time had unconsciously arrived at the warm afternoon.
The number of Copper Ingots obtained through the reverse supply should be enough by now. Since we have dispersed some of our forces in Cyan Town, its time to upgrade the mansion back in the territory.
With the new poption limit, our strength will undoubtedly be further enhanced!
Thinking of this, an excited Leo Ray, without hesitation, arranged a few maids to lead Princess Ariel and her party to their rooms for a rest.
He then headed straight to his territory in the forest with his other subordinates, excluding Gideon ck, Serena rk, and Ste rk.
After a thrilling ride through the forest,
It didnt take long for our people to return safely to the territory within the forest.
In this process, Leo Ray, who had already be a Tier 3 powerhouse, for the first time did not use a mount but relied on his strength to shuttle through the dense trees.
Although slower, he used this opportunity to further consolidate the use of internal energy.
In particr, when wrapping the energy around his feet, he could practically walk on water even in the rapid river after a few attempts.
The feeling of walking on water was unique and exciting for Leo Ray for quite some time.
That being said, the reason why Leo Ray brought the Mage Squad this morning,
Was because the dozen or so Tier 2 Earth Element Magicians in the team had the ability to build bridges.
This allowed the two Great Swordsman Middle Teams Tier 2 soldiers to pass through the turbulent waters.
There is no denying that the river to the west of the territory is indeed a good natural barrier, coupled with the narrow upstream channels, I am looking forward to the day ites into y.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray instructed his subordinates to disassemble and rest, and then returned to the Lords Mansion in the center of the territory.
Entering the room, he strode straight to the Manufacturing Magic Array.
After some skilled upgrade and dposition operations,
A smile appeared on his face, Iron Ingots: 5800 units, Copper Ingots: 5100 units, and enough other basic materials. After such a long time, I can finally upgrade my Lords Mansion to Level 7! I wonder what rewards Ill get this time?
Overjoyed, he hesitated not.
He went straight outside,manded the Earth Guardians guarding the entrance to move back, and then eagerly pressed the upgrade button.
Immediately, the long-awaited prompt sounded.
[You have consumed Stone x300000, Wood x200000, Thatch X120000, Iron
Ingot x5000, Copper Ingot x5000]
[Lords Mansion Lv.6 is upgrading, please wait]
At the same moment, a dazzling rainbow-colored curtain of light began to rise from the ground.
In an instant, the entire mansion waspletely enveloped.
Listening to the growing sound of automatic construction within the curtain,
An eager expression appeared on Leo Rays face: Since so many resources have been consumed, the Level 7 Lords Mansion should see significant changes, right?
With this thought, just like before, he simply sat near the curtain, leaning against the legs of an Earth Guardian.
However, as the curtain covered a muchrger area this time, the construction process was bound to take some time.
Thus, he didnt just wait but casually opened the Trading Center.
This time after the mansion upgrade, the stone reserves are down to only a few tens of thousands of units, while there are still plenty of wood and thatch. So, during this time, lets exchange for some stone first.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray looked around and began browsing through the Trading Center interface.
After a detailed inspection, he noticed that,
Compared to a few days ago, the exchange prices for variousmon wild foods (including fish, shrimp, fruits, and even Demon Beast meats) have stabilized and are not showing a downward trend.
Seeing this, Leo Ray opened several more chat channels in a row, finding that apart from the still first-ranked personal Talent question,
The mostmon topic of discussion among the other Lords was how to allocate farmers for hunting and production work in a rational manner.
Its no wonder that although most Lords now have the ability to hunt autonomously, the number of people in the poption has also increased ordingly. It seems that this is the reason for theck of a significant price drop in food.
Realizing this, Leo Ray reopened the Trading Center,
And noted that the prices of Iron Ore and Copper Ore had likewise declined, but the number of items listed for exchange had increased.
From the chat channels, some Lords with prospecting Talents have found many unexploited ore veins,
Some of the Lords nearrge ore veins have even organized joint mining operations, resulting in a steady increase in the daily ore mining.
It seems that some Lords have already advanced their mansions to Level 4, huh?
As he contemted, Leo Ray continued browsing..
Chapter 259 - 259: The Brand New Lord’s Mansion 1
Chapter 259: The Brand New Lords Mansion 1
Trantor: 549690339
After that, Leo Ray noticed that, besides basic necessities and food, the most popr items in the trade center were various types of clothes, daily necessities, and condiments.
Compared to a few days ago, the number of these items had increased significantly.
It seemed that more and more lords had begun to approach the indigenous people.
However, what remained unchanged was the high price of these items.
Arge amount of basic resources was needed to exchange for these essentials.
Of course, for me, who has already taken control of two cities, this is no longer a problem.
With that in mind, Leo Ray shifted his gaze and continued checking.
Besides these, there were still no rare items such as magical potion forms, equipment blueprints, or miracle building blueprints, let alone high-level equipment.
However, some Tier 1 weapons and armor had appeared, especially metal weapons, which had very high prices.
An ordinary Tier 1 iron sword would cost at least 2,000 units of stone. Well, thats equivalent to the mining output of 20 farmers in 2 days. Realizing that, a long-lost capitalist smile emerged on Leo Rays face. If thats the case, let these people work for me once again.
Without hesitation, Leo Ray anonymously put up 100 Tier 1 iron swords from his space bracelet at a price of 1,500 units of stone each.
For a moment, people quickly noticed the strikingly low price and went crazy promoting it in the chat channel.
Folks, someones giving out goodies in the trading center! Just 1,500 units of stone for a sword!
b? Cant miss out on this bargain! Ill buy one right away!
Any cheap long spears for sale? My wife has always been a fan of Zachary Turner!
Ying Ying Ying, I just bought a beautiful one myself, isnt it pretty (attached picture)?
Thedy above is right! Aesthetics matter!
Having clicked on the attached picture, Leo Ray smiled helplessly.
He had to admit; thedy had a valid point.
Closing the picture, Leo Ray re-focused his attention on the colorful halo-enshrouded Lords Mansion in front of him.
At this point, it was evident.
The construction noiseing from inside was much quieter than before.
It seemed that the mansion upgrade was in its final stages.
Sure enough, after a short while.
The familiar notification sound rang in Leo Rays ears.
[Congrattions! Your Lords Mansion has been upgraded to Lv: 7!]
Has it finally beenpleted?
With excitement, Leo Ray stood up and began inspecting.
As the colorful light curtain dissipated in the wind, the outline of a massive building gradually became clear.
Gazing at the impressive building, Leo Ray couldnt help but exim.
From its size alone, it was evident that the upgraded Lords Mansion was at least 50%rger than before.
The mansion was now entirely made of solid and durable stone material.
Additionally, two smaller fortress structures with crions were erected on its left and right sides, making the overall building practically indistinguishable from a small castle.
Even the previously single metal gate had been reced with arger double metal gate, giving off an imposing atmosphere.
Its no wonder that the Lv: 7 Mansion that consumed 300,000 units of stone is extraordinary!
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but excitedly rub his hands together. He firstmanded a few Earth Guardians to return to their positions.
He then approached the entrance, opened the heavy metal gate, and stepped into the newly renovated mansion interior.
Inside, Leo Ray held a few Light Crystal Stones and found that under the double illumination of sunlight and crystal light.
The entrance still featured arge reception hall.
However, its area had increased considerably, almost rivaling the hall of the Cyan Town City Lord Mansion at a nce.
At the end of the hall stood a high and majestic metal throne, surrounded by more than a dozen delicate metalnterns and some exquisitendscape murals.
These additions gave the solemn environment a touch of artistic ir.
Not bad, its looking more and more impressive. I will buy some more decorationster, and it will look even more tasteful.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction, took a step forward, and continued to examine the other rooms on the first floor.
To the left of the hall was still arge banquet area.
In it, there were several long tables with a multitude of wooden chairs arranged around them, and an enormous chandelier hung in the center. Additionally, there was a well-equipped and well-ventted enclosed kitchen at the end of the banquet room.
On the right side of the hall were two identical spacious lounges, fully furnished with various pieces of furniture.
In the rooms, the grand and luxurious decor along with some metal ornaments featuring the distinct style of swords and magic gave an overwhelming sense of opulence.
Notably, the staircase to the second floor had changed from a single spiral staircase to two spiral staircases on the left and right sides of the foyer.
Moreover, robust metal doors were fitted at the entrance of the staircase area, providing further security.
Walking up to the second floor, Leo Ray was first greeted by a spacious corridor.
Along the corridor, there were several neatly arranged rooms. After inspecting them, Leo Ray found.
These were six identical and well-lit bedrooms, as well as a neat and tidy bathroom.
As a side note, the toilets in this world were incredibly sanitary and nearly identical to those from Leo Rays past life.
The only difference was the small magic circle at the bottom of the sewage pipes, which mages would asionally charge and maintain.
Of course, since the Lords Mansion itself had energy absorption and automatic maintenance magic arrays like the Miracle Buildings.
Even the need for mages could be omitted.
It seems that these new rooms are meant to be guest rooms or the bedrooms of subordinates.
As Leo Ray pondered, he continued to inspect the mansion.
At the end of the corridor on the second floor, there were doors on either side leading to the small fortresses built on each side of the mansion, which could be used for defense during battles.
Furthermore, there were no other exits within the small fortresses.
This detail would undoubtedly maximize the security of the entire mansion.
However, for my territory, it would already be challenging for enemies to breach the main entrance, let alone approach the Lords Mansion.
Thinking this, Leo Ray smiled slightly and turned towards the third floor of the
Lords Mansion..
Chapter 260 - 260: The Shock of the Versailles Lords 1
Chapter 260: The Shock of the Versailles Lords 1
Trantor: 549690339
Following the spiral staircase, Leo Ray continued to the third floor of the mansion and found that,
Theyout on the third floor was almost the same as the second floor, the first thing that came into view was still a spacious and bright corridor.
Also, at the entrance of the staircase, there was still a sturdy metal door.
Once closed, it could bepletely isted from other floors, and the security level would be further increased.
After a thorough inspection, Leo Ray noticed that,
There were slightly fewer rooms on the third floorpared to the second floor, a total of five rooms.
They were a luxurious Lords Office with a boss desk, a disy room for war trophies, a well-lit study, an independent cloakroom,
And, as before, a huge Lords Suite with a bathroom, living room, and bedroom.
Not bad, not bad. Although its still a three-story building, the height and the area of each room have increased, and the living environment has been further improved.
Especially since there are quite a few new bedrooms on the second floor, it seems that I can consider letting some of my subordinates move into the
Lords Mansion.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,
A familiar notification sounded in his ears.
[Your Excellency, congrattions! You are the first Lord globally to upgrade to a 7th-ss mansion. A world broadcast will start shortly. Do you want to make your name public?]
Make it public. With a faint smile, Leo Ray responded without hesitation.
And then, an unremarkable sound, but enough to shock the eardrums of all the lords, abruptly sounded out of nowhere.
[Congrattions to Lord 0013076067, Leo Ray, the first in the world to upgrade to a 7th-ss Mansion! Reward: A random tier 4 magical potion and a tier 4 magical potion form!]
At this time, it was mid-afternoon,
Many lords who were having meals with their subordinates opened their mouths in surprise, almost forgetting to chew, their faces full of astonishment.
This scene caused the othermoners beside the Lords to exchange puzzled looks.
Without a doubt, this surprise world broadcast, like a storm,
Instantly stirred up huge waves in the hearts of all the Lords present.
At this stage, the mansions of the vast majority of the Lords were at about 3rd-ss.
To upgrade to a 4th-ss mansion, the required iron ore and copper ore were like a mountain, making it difficult for the Lords to breathe.
And very few Lords who had just upgraded to a 4th-ss mansion were stunned by the tremendous resources required for the 5th-ss mansion after their excitement.
Up to now, after experiencing several mansion upgrades,
Almost all the Lords were clearly aware that with each upgrade of the mansion, the resources required for the next level would no doubt increase exponentially.
As a result, one could imagine the astonishment of the other lords when they heard that Leo Ray had already upgraded to a 7th-ss mansion.
Especially for those Lords who had just reached the 4th-ss mansion not long ago, many of them had just shown off in the chat channel, receiving a lot of envious and jealous nces.
Those newly confident Lords had thought that they were getting closer to
Master Leo, only to find that the gap between them was widening even more! At the same time, as the Lords all fell into a stunned and amazed state,
Penelope, Lincoln Wilde, and siblings Solomon and Sylvia sent congrattory messages to Leo Ray at the first opportunity.
By the way, as todays blessing type from Penelope was cooked magical beast eggs,
So, due to its low value, Leo Ray didnt let her bless them.
In the end, she blessed an egg from a Blue Wing Fire Pheasant that Leo Ray had tasted before, and once again obtained the effect of a Qi Condensing Pill.Next, after briefly replying to several private messages,
Leo Ray couldnt wait to go to the storage wooden box.
At present, he had moved this box to the Lords Office on the third floor, making it convenient to exchange and ess items with the Space Bracelet.
Then, without hesitation, Leo started collecting the upgrading rewards for his Mansion.
[Congrattions, you have obtained the Tier 4 Magic Medicine: Sacred Blessing Pill!]
[Congrattions, you have obtained the Tier 4 Magic Medicine Form: Twin Phoenix Condensing Pill!]
Sacred Blessing Pill and Twin Phoenix Condensing Pill? It seems like two new types of magic medicine, but lets upgrade first.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray continued his operations.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Magic Medicine: Sacred Blessing Pill has been upgraded to Tier 4 Magic Medicine: Sacred Blessing Pill 100 pills!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Magic Medicine Form: Twin Phoenix
Condensing Pill has been upgraded to Tier 5 Magic Medicine Form: Triple
Dragon Condensing Pill!]
Another stable increase and quality improvement? Not bad.
With a nod of satisfaction, Leo Ray immediately opened the attribute columns of both items.
[Name: Sacred Blessing Pill]
[Grade: Tier 4.Top Quality]
[Effect: Nourishes meridians, assists in realm breakthrough]
[Remarks: This magical medicine was developed by the chief Royal Alchemist of an empire, using multiple Tier 4 magical beast blood essences and a dozen rare natural treasures.
Its medicinal power is gentle, and after consumption, it has a miraculous effect of moistening channels and stabilizing the mind for a period of time.
Especially when refining with power-enhancing magical medicine simultaneously, the sess rate of breaking through to the next tier can be significantly increased, and can be used at most when breaking through to Tier
4.]
So its a realm-assisting type of magical medicine?
Seeing this, Leo Ray showed a thoughtful expression.
Having experienced two realm breakthroughs, he clearly understood.
In this world, each breakthrough was actually a very difficult metamorphosis process, even calling it a rebirth would not be an exaggeration.
Especially when using the[Qi Condensing Pill]or[Rose Energy Gathering Pill]to enhance strength and break through realms, it was even more difficult.
Therefore, no one can guarantee a hundred percent sess rate in realm breakthrough.
If a breakthrough fails, minor injuries can lead to loss of strength, or in severe cases, even life-threatening dangers may arise. Moreover, the higher the realm, the greater the probability of these situations urring.
For example, Jasper Richardson, the Half-Elf Ancestor, failed in his breakthrough to Tier 6 back then.
And the reason why there have not been any failed breakthroughs in the current stage:
Its because people like Belinda Wright, who is a Half-Elf, and Aaron, Bard, and Daisy Sasha all have far superior natural talentspared to others.
This fact can be seen from their noticeably higher strength than other peers when they first met them.
Therefore, these people are the focus of Leo Rays cultivation.
However, as everyones realms continue to improve and ordinary subordinates with ordinary talents begin to advance in realms, the urrence of failed breakthroughs is inevitable.
And this[Sacred Blessing Pill]magical medicine can undoubtedly suppress the urrence of such situations to the maximum extent!
Not bad, not bad. Next time, Ill try to get a magical potion form for assisting in realm breakthroughs; that would be even more perfect!
Thinking of this, Leo Rays gaze fell on the attribute column of another magical potion form..
Chapter 261 - 261: New Territory Planning_l

Trantor: 549690339
[Tier 5 Magic Medicine Form: Triple Dragon Condensing Pill]can allow Tier 5 and lower-level magical beasts with intelligenceparable to humans to have the ability topletely transform into a human form?
Seeing this, Leo Ray casually sat down in the Lords Offices boss chair, revealing a thoughtful expression.
In this world, there are many non-human races with the ability to transform into human forms, such as Bianca Whites Werewolf Tribe.
However, they cannotpletely conceal their racial characteristics, such as Biancas pair of fluffy ears and a tail that resembles a feather duster.
This miraculous Tier 5 magic medicine can perfectly solve this issue.
Furthermore, many powerful demon beasts are naturally born with exceptional strength.
But due to the limitations of their racial bloodlines, it is extremely difficult for them to advance further at many times.
However, afterpletely transforming into human form,
these demon beasts will have the same cultivation talent as humans and can naturally use human cultivation methods.
This undoubtedly gives them another choice and possibility on the road to advancement in the future.
After all, humans are recognized as one of the races with infinite potential in this world.
It can be seen that this magic medicine is priceless to some powerful magical beasts.
Moreover, its a Tier 5 form, and its value alone is enough to make people dumbfounded.
Excited, Leo Rays gaze fell on theplicated materials needed for refining the potion, involuntarily pursing his lips.
Asplicated as the periodic table of chemical elements, lets have Linda gather everything possible.
Thus, after checking all the rewards,
Leo Ray, who sat in the boss chair,pletely leaned his body on thefortable backrest and continued to check the attributes of the territory.
[Lords Mansion Lv: 7 (Can receive 3 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders daily or 18

[Upgrade Materials Required: Stone x600,ooo, Wood x400,ooo, Thatch

X2,ooo]
After upgrading, the number of Recruitment Orders received has indeed increased. In this way, I can get three Tier 2 Recruitment Orders every day.
The most important thing is that the poption has expanded to 1000 people!
Delighted, Leo Ray continued to check.
However, the materials required for the next mansion upgrade have also greatly increased.
The first three basic resources are rather inconsequential, casually umted by making other lords work for me.
The key is the amount of iron and copper ingots, which has also doubled. With such arge amount, it takes too long based on the previous production rate.
It seems that when I have time, I have to think of other methods. Thinking of this, Leo Rays gaze fell on thest added resource.
Fine Steel Ingot, huh ording to the description, this Level 3 rare resource is refined from a Level 3mon resource called Fine Steel Ore.Compared to themon copper and iron ores, this fine steel ore is rtively rare, and its basically only used in equipment above Tier 3.
Hed have to ask Mason Banks in detailter.
After all, once the forging materials are ready, along with the existing equipment blueprints, they can immediately mass-produce Tier 3 equipment.
Closing the territory attribute interface, Leo Rays face couldnt help but show a hint of joy again.
In summary, since the mansion has been upgraded to Level 7, our strength can undoubtedly be further enhanced!
At this time, Leo Ray didnt hesitate. He directly took todays three Tier 2 Recruitment Orders and a Returning Crystal, and began to upgrade.
In the end, he got 200 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders, 1 Tier 3 Recruitment Order, and 1 Teleportation Crystal.
Now I have 405 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders and 8 Tier 3 Recruitment Orders stored on me. It seems its time for a massive recruitment!
Thinking of this, Leo Ray was just about to leave the office when he remembered something.
He walked over to the window, looking down at his territory while showing a contemtive expression on his face.
At present, the various buildings in the territory are almost saturated, and many buildings were built progressively.
Especially the residential area in the south, though the houses are built side by side to save space, it still looks rather cluttered. Its urgent to re-n the territory.
Realizing this, Leo Rays brain started to work quickly.
He immediately opened the manufacture interface and quickly scrolled to the building blueprint rted projects.
After the Mansion has been upgraded, there is a new manufacturing project for a three-story wooden house blueprint in terms of residences.
Although it provides 10 more amodation spaces without increasing thend area, its not particrly ideal.
With a slight frown, Leo Rays gaze shifted downward, continuing to check.
A momentter, his eyes finally stopped on the item of the Werewolf
Moisture-proof Warehouse in the manufacturing list, and his eyes lit up.
This pure stone warehouse with a t top and a cylindrical shape has a very thick wall and is almost a sturdy stone fortress.
And its interior is divided into two floors with a well-designed moisture-proof system.
With slight modifications, it could be used as a barracks, with no problem amodating 50 subordinates.
Moreover, building battlements on the top would raise the height to 10 meters, on par with the wooden watchtowers in the territory. It could even have a tform for magic cannons to be used. It looks like Ive found the solution!
At this thought, Leo Rays face showed a hint of excitement.
If they follow Lincoln Wilde and Penelope Welbourns practice of treating buildings as territory walls,
Using this structure in ce of wooden walls, building it seamlessly around the territory with all entrances inward and the walls back facing outward.
In this way, with all the rooftops connected, not only would the wooden walls be reced with real city walls,
but it would also perfectly amodate the functions of the battlement, watchtower, barracks, and warehouse.
Most importantly, with this multi-functional stone wall, the previous wooden houses can be dismantled. While greatly improving the sturdiness of the territory and saving space,
it also eliminates the possibility of the enemy using fire attacks. Its simply too perfect!
Realizing this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate.
He began to mass-produce the Werewolf Moisture-proof Warehouse building blueprints while calling over the territorys powerhouses andmanders through mind talk.
Next, its time to give the entire territory aplete makeover!
Chapter 262 - 262: Implementation of the Planning_l
Chapter 262: Implementation of the nning_l
Trantor: 549690339
A momentter, all the subordinates whose names were called by Leo Ray were neatly lined up in the hall on the first floor.
At this time, seated on the throne, Leo Ray looked down at the lower end of the hall.
In the great reception hall of the mansion, on his left hand side, were Taylor, Scarlett, Bianca White, Joshua Bingaman, Orion Wolfe, Abigail, and Amelia.
On his right hand side were the Farmer Squadmander Gavin Sullivan, Half-elf Archer Squadmander Belinda Wright, Heavy Armored Guardsmander Roger Smith, and the new Elite Werewolf Warrior Squadmander Owen Montgomery who arrived this morning.
With the Farmer Squad, there are currently four squads in the territory
enough to move in.
Seeing this, Leo Ray did not hesitate, immediately detailed the new territory nning arrangements, and exined them to the subordinates.
After listening to Leo Rays description, everyones faces showed a touch of joy.
The wooden walls became real stone walls!
As expected from the lord, this way, the territorys overall defense capabilities will undoubtedly be elevated to an epic level!
About the rooms on the second floor of the City Lord Mansion, for now, there will be one for Taylor, one for Gideon ck, one for Serena and Ste, and one for Scarlett and Bianca White. I have other arrangements for the rest. At this point, Leo Ray paused slightly.
Undoubtedly, thest two were for Jasper Richardson, who had not returned, and one for backup.
In addition, because Bianca White had not been given a house before, she had been staying in Scarletts house for the past few days, and the two had been getting along well.
So, Leo Ray arranged them together again.
After all, theyplemented each others weaknesses: one was a little impulsive, and the other was a little naive.
Then, Leo Ray continued as he looked down at the subordinates: Also, I have already informed Gideon ck in Cyan Town, as well as Serena and Ste, that Taylor and Scarlett can pack their belongings on their behalf.
Yes, Lord! Hearing this, the three people called out stepped forward and respectfully responded.
Furthermore, all the soldiers belongings and beds should be moved to the door of their original residence, and I will store them all in my storage space.
After the new residences arepleted, I will return them to the new residences door, where they can then be collected.
After a moments thought, Leo Ray continued, As for the two Great
Swordsman Squads that are not present, the Farmer Squad and the Heavy Armored Guards Squad will handle their belongings, while the Half-elf Squad will take care of the Mage Squad, and the Werewolf Squad will be responsible for guarding the territory during this period.
At this point, Leo Ray waved his hand and said, Alright, lets get moving.
Yes, Lord! On the other side, the subordinates bowed together, then went back to carry out their orders.
Taking advantage of this time, Leo Ray once again opened the Trading Center.
He discovered that the 100 Tier 1 Iron Swords he had put up earlier had already been sold out, and he easily acquired 150,000 units of stone. It seems that tiered metal weapons are indeed in high demand.
Delighted, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a thoughtful expression.
For them, the Otherworldly Lords, there are two ways to obtain Tier 1 weapons.
The first is to trade directly with the local indigenous people or, like Lincoln Wilde, rely on good fortune to find them on the battlefield.
The second, of course, is to build a cksmith shop and forge and produce them yourself.However, the construction of a cksmith shop also requires a considerable amount of copper and iron ore.
As a result, most of the Lords have not built cksmith shops at this stage and have instead opted to upgrade their Mansions directly.
Moreover, through browsing the Chat Channel, Leo Ray learned that,
Perhaps it was because the advent time had been getting longer and longer. Currently, even though they were still using Tier 1 Recruitment Orders,
In addition to the ordinary farmers and hunters that could be recruited at the beginning,
Many Lords have sessively recruited Tier 1 Subordinates with professional skills such as forging, textile, tailoring, crafting, nting, gathering, fishing, taming, cooking, and even soldiers.
Furthermore, they have also unlocked the blueprints for functional buildings like cksmith shops, craft workshops and the like.
So as long as their luck was not too bad, there was almost no need to worry about ack of suitable talent.
Of course, since I directly upied a city, I naturally avoided these slow development steps.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray smiled and casually extracted 150,000 units of stone into his storage space, and also put up 500 Tier 1 Iron Swords at the same price.
Next, Leo Ray, who had just risen from his throne,
Returned to the Lords office on the third floor of the Mansion and brought out arge number of [Building Blueprint: Werewolf Damp-proof Warehouse] that had already been prepared.
Afterward, he came to the second floor of the Mansion and strolled around.
He found that Taylor, Scarlett, and Bianca were cleaning up their respective rooms.
Besides, Gideon and Serena and Stes belongings had already been transported in their entirety.
Lord! Seeing Leo Raying, the three of them put down their work and immediately surrounded him.
Continue tidying up, Scarlett,e with me for a moment.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and called Scarlett, who was dressed in a deep blue elf robe and wearing a deep blue witch hat, out on her own.
Taking the hopping Scarlett outside, Leo Ray noticed that,
The moving work outside the territory was also in progress, and many beds and items had already been neatly moved outdoors.
My Lord, what are your orders?
Blinking her bright ck eyes, Scarlett asked curiously while holding up her witch hat.
Naturally, its time for you to show your specialty.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray immediately ordered, First, tear down your original residences using the fire magic youre best at.
In the initial half-elf barrier, Leo Ray had discovered this girls demolition talent.
In Gunner Santons words, And this Fire Mage, Your Excellency, is so powerful that she can burn down the ruins that have already been burned once and leave nothing behind,pletely saving the cleaning step.
Undoubtedly, perhaps other Lords might be reluctant to dismantle buildings for fear of wasting their basic resources and would choose to slowly dismantle and reuse them with manpower.
While for Leo Ray, who still had almost 1 million units of wood, the priority was speed.
As for the remaining foundations of the buildings, it doesnt matter. If needed, when constructing new buildings, they will be automatically crushed.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray patted the small braided head of Scarlett and said,
Begin, and be sure to control the heat.
Leave it to this subordinate, my Lord. With my current strength at Tier 3
Seven-Star, my fire-ying skills have improved a lotpared to before!
Scarlett grinned at Leo Ray and took out a dazzling Tier 4 Magic Wand from her waist, then stood in front of an open, unupied building..

Trantor: 549690339
Following that, Scarlett slowly waved the short wand in her hand, murmuring an obscure incantation.
In an instant, a small deep-red hexagram magic array emerged from beneath her feet.
The next second, the wooden hut not far away was instantly dyed fiery red and began to dissipate quickly with the wind like a wildfire.
What was even more surprising was that around the empty house, a small, square, semi-transparent barrier appeared,pletely isting it from the outside world.
Leo Ray, who was standing nearby, couldnt feel the heat waves from inside the barrier, which also had the miraculous effect of filtering smoke.
A momentter, when thest wisp of firelight vanished, everything quieted down.
Apanied by a gentle breeze and rising dust,
the ce where their gaze fell had already be a t expanse ofnd, as if nothing had ever been there.
This girl really is a master of demolition,
Leo Ray sniffed the slightly burnt scent, nodded in satisfaction, and gently patted Scarletts head in encouragement.
So, Leo Ray was responsible for packing therge number of beds and wooden cabs that the other subordinates moved out into his storage, then transferring them to the spacious storage wooden box.
Meanwhile, the hopping Scarlett was in charge of dismantling the empty buildings.
In no time, in the vast territory, only the towering Lords Mansion in the center, the two miracle buildings in the north, and the stream gushing from the spring remained,
along with Taylor and the other strong beings surrounding Leo Ray and the soldiers of the four intermediate squads.
Also, there was a brown steed.
It was originally removed from Kombus lost carriage and had been kept in the territory ever since.
Previously, Leo Ray would often practice his riding skills on it during his spare time.
Finally, its my turn to perform.
Gazing at the neat territory, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and immediately held arge stack of building blueprints, arriving at the main gate on the east side of the territory.
At this point, the wooden wall and watchtower that once stood here had already been cleared away by Scarlett.
Only on the ground remained some shallow burnt traces and wisps of smoke that had not yetpletely dissipated.
Lets start from here.
Immediately, with a move from Leo Rays mind, piles of massive stones appeared in front of him on the open ground.
Without hesitation, he started building.
In a sh, apanied by rainbow-colored light curtains, soon, towering cylindrical buildings began to rise one after another.
Moreover, all the doors were inward-facing, seamlessly forming a sturdy city wall.
For a moment, with the slight tremors beneath their feet, the sight of an entire row of high-rise buildings rising from the ground was truly spectacr.
In summary, whether its from the degree of sturdiness or scale,pared to ordinary small stone fortresses, these werewolf moisture-proof warehouses are undoubtedly superior, truly a fortress among fortresses.
After carefully observing, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and said to himself,
From now on, Ill just call them fortresses.
Speaking of which, although Leo Ray had demolished all the wooden walls, he did not change therge trenches behind them.
The newly built row of stone fortresses was still built inside the trench, perfectly recing the original wooden walls.
Therefore, the three buffer zones outside their walls were not affected at all.
Undoubtedly, although Leo Ray currently had the ability to continue expanding the territory,
after repeated consideration, he decided not to do so.Firstly, ording to the current territory nning, even if the poption reaches its limit again, there wont be any crowded situations within the territory.
Secondly, if expanded blindly, although numerous fortresses can still be used.
Topletely surround the territory, this will significantly increase the length of the city wall.
In this way, once an enemy attacks, the longer defense line will undoubtedly disperse our forces invisibly, thereby increasing the difficulty of defense.
If the poption continues to expand in the future, its easy to solve. The inner city area can be used as the core, and an outer city can be constructed outside.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this.
Around the territory, arge circle of seamlessly connected cylindrical stone buildings had already beenpleted as city walls.
Moreover, Leo Ray had reserved corresponding spaces in front and rear gate positions, which would be convenient for building city gatester.
Looking around, the whole territory had transformed. It had not only be much neater but also had a significant leap in safety, making all the subordinates marvel at it.
A total of 50 fortresses were built, right? 15 on the north and south sides, and 10 on the east and west sides, perfectly forming a rectangle.
After a brief inspection, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
So far, with everyones efforts, the main construction work of the territory was perfectlypleted.
Next, lets arrange the amodation for each squad.
Then, Leo Ray pondered for a while and called all themanders and powerful characters.
After some arrangement, Leo Ray divided the city wall formed by the fortresses around the territory into four areas: east, south, west, and north.
Among them, the four fortresses close to the city gates on the east and west sides.
The rear gate was upied by the Werewolf Warrior Squad, and the front gate was upied by the Heavy Armored Guards Squad.
At the same time, these two squads were also fully responsible for the defense of the two city gates and the city walls above the gates.
Additionally, in the quiet southwest corner of the rear gate area, the alchemists Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, along with maids Abigail and Amelia, were assigned their respective fortresses.
The north side of the city wall area was upied by the Mage Squad, Great Swordsman Squad, and Farmer Squad.
This area was close to the two Miracle Buildings, which facilitated the maintenance work of the Mage Squad.
Finally, the south side of the city wall area was upied by the Half-elf Squad and another Great Swordsman Squad.
So far, all seven intermediate squads currently owned had been arranged.
Besides, Leo Ray designated the fortresses located in the corners of the east, south, west, and north directions as four warehouses.
Among them, two were for storing equipment and materials, and the other two were for storing food and other supplies.
Hearing Leo Rays arrangement, the subordinates of each squad lined up neatly and immediately began to act, heading towards their new residences.
Leo Ray also ced the beds and other items previously stored in the storage space in the new positions of each squad and distributed a certain number of Light Crystal Stones for auxiliary lighting purposes.
A two-story fortress can amodate 50 people; therefore, each squad is allocated two, a total of 14 for seven squads, two for Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, four for warehouses
So, 30 out of the 50 fortresses that make up the city wall are currently idle?
While watching the subordinates moving beds and other items excitedly into their new residences, Leo Ray continued to think.
In this case, the territory can now amodate up to 15 more squads, which is quite enough for the current stage.
Thinking of this, a look of anticipation and excitement emerged on Leo Rays face.
There was no doubt that since the territory had been re-nned and had a lot of amodation space, it was time to recruit new subordinates!
Chapter 264 - 264: Heavy Shield and Shadow_l
Chapter 264: Heavy Shield and Shadow_l
Trantor: 549690339
With that, after the soldiers of the four squads moved their bedding and personal belongings into their new quarters inside the fortress.
As usual, except for some on-duty guards, Leo Ray had all his suited and equipped subordinates gather near the two miracle buildings in the northern part of the territory.
At first nce, under the brilliant sunlight.
Whether it was the Guardian Defense Mechanism, with its surface covered in deep blue metallic lines and a hexagonal overall shape.
Or the Light Healing House, almost indistinguishable from a temple, with pale golden crystal lines on the stone pirs.
Their individual patterns reflected brilliantly on the surface, giving people an iprehensible and mysterious feeling.
Next to the two miracle buildings were four neatly arranged formations.
They were the current Half-elf Archer Squad, Werewolf Warrior Squad, Heavy Armored Guards Squad, and Farmer Squad.
Ahead was Leo Ray, surrounded by powerful figures like Taylor and Scarlett.
Alright, lets start summoning.
Nodding to the subordinates beside him, Leo Ray moved slightly, first using 200 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders.
In an instant, the long-awaited dense gateways of light appeared in the air in batches.
Dazzling and overwhelming, they made people feel like they couldnt take it all in at once.
The next second, endless light gates opened, and one by one, burly figures appeared in front of everyone.
In just a moment, as the light gate turned into tiny golden dust and merged into the fresh and natural air around them, those burly figures gradually became clearer.
Excellent! This is exactly the power our side is currentlycking!
Seeing the burly figures not far away, Leo Rays face broke into a smile.
Looking closely, he saw that the 200 newly summoned subordinates were all sturdy males,
Uniformly wearing flexible and shiny light silver armor, holding arge rectangr shield in one hand and a crossbow in the other, they looked imposing.
However, this equipment was of a very ordinary Tier 2 quality.
Compared to their own Tier 2 squads wearing Tier 3 equipment, it was clearly not on the same level.
Judging from their equipment, these are undoubtedly ranged soldiers, who have both defensive capabilities and flexibility in wearing light armor and carryingrge shields. Protecting the city couldnt be more suitable! Overjoyed, Leo Ray opened the attribute summary panel for the subordinates,
upation is Heavy Shield Shooter Most of them are Tier 2 Three-star, with a few between Tier 2 Five-star and the four strongest at Tier 2 Seven-Star, huh?
Seems like these should be ordinary soldiers, as well as the deputy squad leader, squad leader, deputy team leader, and team leader.
With that, Leo Ray continued to look.
In terms of skills, these Heavy Shield Shooters all had passive skills like Shield Mastery, Bow and Crossbow Mastery and Fast Stringing to increase their own abilities.
Some also had active damage skills like Piercing Shot, Focused Snipe, and Shield m.
They really do have outstanding offensive power while also having quite good defensive capabilities.
As Leo Ray reached this point.
On the other side, two middle-agedmanders with white hair at their temples had already jogged up to Leo Ray.
They both knelt on one knee and bowed their heads deeply, respectfully saying in unison: Greetings, Lord! We are willing to be the sturdy shield for our Lord and also the sharp arrow for our Lord!Meanwhile, not far away, the other newly-acquired subordinates were neatly kneeling on one knee as they swore their loyalty to Leo Ray.
After helping the two to their feet and signaling the others to rise, Leo Ray learned through brief questioning that.
The two men were the squad leaders of the two separate Heavy Shield Shooter squads, Luther Blues and Russ Blues.
During this process, as they looked at the dazzling Miracle Buildings nearby and felt the powerful aura of strong people like Taylor, the loyalty of these newly-acquired subordinates began to surge as expected.
Listening to the constant prompts in his ear, Leo Ray, who had already mastered the art of handling such situations, naturally seized the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot.
With a wave of his hand, 200 Tier 3 Fire Cloud Crossbows, 200 Tier 3 ck Sun Dark Iron Shields, and 200 sets of Tier 3 ck Kylin Light Armor appeared in front of everyone.
For a moment, the strong and varied colors emitted by the 600 Tier 3 equipment and the light of the two Miracle Buildings reflected each other, making the entire area dreamily colorful and full of flowing lights.
These weapons were upgraded from the spoils of the Border Battlefield and the collection of the former Lord of Cyan City.
The other two sets of armor were naturally contributed by the Half-Orc Corps.
On the other side, the soldiers of the newly recruited squads were delighted when they learned that their generous Lord was nning to bestow these invaluable pieces of equipment upon them.
Their gratitude was immense, and their loyalty instantly soared to 100 points without suspense.
After that, Leo Ray arranged for the two Heavy Shield Shooter squads to be stationed at the centers of the north and south city walls, each responsible for the defense of their respective areas.
Well, now its time to summon the next batch of new subordinates.
After watching the Heavy Shield Shooters finish changing their equipment and the number of squads behind him increase from four to six, Leo Ray nodded satisfactorily.
Then, he turned his attention to the other 200 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders, and couldnt help but show a hint of excitement.
Without a doubt, this was his first time recruiting 400 Tier 2 subordinates on the same day.
At this time, if any other Lord were to see this scene, they might be reduced to tears on the spot.
Damn! Our recruitment is usually one at a time, we wish we could break one Recruitment Order into eight pieces
This guy recruited 200 at once, with Tier 2 Recruitment Orders no less! !
This was simply a crushing blow!!
I wonder what kind of subordinates I can recruit this time? At this stage, not only is there a willful Princess Cold me living not far away in Cyan Town, but the mysterious organization has also started to reveal itself. I must increase my strength as soon as possible.
With this thought in mind, Leo Ray hesitated no longer and began to summon.
Immediately after, a series of golden gates of light shed by.
The figures appearing this time were noticeably thinner than the sturdy Heavy Shield Shooters, but their aura was no less impressive.
A momentter, as the light gates dissolved, Leo Ray noticed that.
These newly summoned subordinates included men and women alike.
It seemed they also formed twoplete squads of the same type of soldiers.
Most crucially, they were all dressed in ck, and when they emerged from the gates, they were silent and invisible, like non-existent shadows.
Nice, this feels a bit simr to when I recruited Serena and Ste. Upon noticing this, Leo Ray immediately opened the overview interface for
these new subordinates..
Chapter 265 - 265: The Booming Territory Construction 1
Chapter 265: The Booming Territory Construction 1
Trantor: 549690339
The names of these two squads are simple and direct, just one word, Shadow.
As for their strength, the four strongest are at Tier 2 Seven-Star, a few are at
Tier 2 Five-Star, and the rest are all at Tier 2 Three-Star.
Seeing this, Leo Ray randomly opened some details pages of the new subordinates.
In terms of skills, they all have passive skills like Dagger Mastery and Shadow Stealth.
Some even master active skills such as Poisoned Attack, Poison Mist, Shadow Kill, and Sonic de.
Well, theyre almost like replicas of Serena and Ste. It seems that with a little bit of training, well have an elite stealth squad like we discussed with Linda before!
After closing the attribute interface, Leo Ray was delighted to think of this.
On the other side, the two ck-clothedmanders were already standing in front of him with reverence on their faces.
Upon closer inspection, the two were a man and a woman, both around thirty years old, and appeared to have a clean and efficient style.
We were born in darkness, and we serve the light. We are willing to go through fire and water for you, Lord!
Immediately afterward, two synchronized, solemn voices sounded, and they knelt on one knee.
At the same time, the rest of the new subordinates not far away also made the same action in unison, deeply bowing their heads to Leo Ray.
Loyalty starts at 100 points for everyone? It seems like they indeed share some simrities with Serena and Stes upation. However, loyalty is no longer an issue for me now.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray bent down to help the twomanders up, then slightly raised his hand to signal the other new subordinates to stand up.
After a brief chat with the two ck-clothedmanders, Leo Ray found out that the mans name was Dean and the womans name was Fiona Harding. They specialized in assassination, stealth reconnaissance work, and covert lookout activities.
Even though loyalty is already at 100 points, I still need to give them the necessary equipment.
Upon thinking of this, Leo Rays heart stirred slightly.
The next moment, 200 sets of Tier 3 Elf Cloth Armor and 200 Tier 3 short swords from the City Lord Mansions treasure vault appeared out of nowhere.
As for the subordinates of the two Shadow squads, their excitement and shock were apparent.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray took the time to arrange the living quarters for both Shadow squads in the northwest corner of the city, near the western city walls and the back gate of the territory.
At the current stage, the eastern area outside the territory has Werewolf Tribe settlements, the southern area has the Half-Elf Barrier, and the northern area has the mountain range.
While there is a river blocking the western area and Cyan Town on the other side of the river, there is no regr patrol force.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray continued to ponder.
In this case, one squad will patrol the vast western area of the territory to defend against possible Coldme forces and scout for specific locations in the territory.
The other squad will be trained as a stealth unit. When Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, who are familiar with the geography and customs of Coldme, have finished refining, they can train them during their spare time and then scatter them to gather intelligence in various Coldme cities. With that in mind, Leo Ray opened the Territory interface again.
The current poption of the territory has reached 900/1000? Since I still need to reserve some poption to win over Princess Ariel, and there is currently norge number of Tier 2 Recruitment Orders, it will stop here for now.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray returned to the Lords Mansion, made a corresponding number of wooden beds, tables, chairs, and benches, and distributed them to the newly joined squads based on their needs.
When all this waspleted, he waved his hand and summoned all themanders and powerful subordinates to gather.
Even though we have fortified the entire territory with arge number of fortresses, the most crucial parts, the city gates and crions, remain unbuilt. Moreover, we alsock a fast method to climb the city walls.Leo Rays dark eyes shifted slightly, scanning Taylor and the other powerful individuals, as well as themanders of the eight middle teams in front of him.
He continued to speak: Therefore, I will prepare the necessary tools and materials shortly.
Everyone hurry up and create a direct upward passage from the inside of each fortress, where the middle teams are, to the city wall for future patrolling and defense purposes. Then, work on building the crions and city gates simultaneously, striving toplete the remaining parts as soon as possible.
Yes, Lord!
On the other side, all the subordinates bowed their fists and greeted respectfully.
Very good.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray detailed the guard areas each team was responsible for, ensuring that during construction, there were at least eight fully armed squads and five Earth Guardian teams stationed in various areas and surrounding territories.
As for the professionalism of construction, Leo Ray had already learned that newly summoned Heavy Shield Shooter Squads and the Werewolf Warrior Squad, which mainly used stone architecture, all had extensive construction experience and he did not need to worry.
So, after arranging everything properly, Leo Ray led Taylor and the other strong men back to Cyan Town.
On this trip, they were to makerge purchases of daily necessities, clothing, and rted materials, further replenishing their supplies and distributing them to the new subordinates. On the other hand, they would also buy concrete and tools for constructing the city gates and crions.
It is worth mentioning that upon simple inquiry, Leo Ray learned that all the concrete in this world was mixed by professional Earth Element Magicians using special magic, almost identical to that of his previous world.
Anyway, with the help of Rhizoma Drynariae, themander of the Defense Army, the City Lord Leo Ray found two drawbridges and the apanying equipment and two heavy double-opening metal doors from Cyan Towns warehouse. These items perfectly solved the issue of the city gates throughout the fortress.
At the same time, Leo Ray noticed that the upgrading and reinforcement of Cyan Towns walls were progressing smoothly.
Due to generous rewards, many farmers from nearby viges rushed to apply for work. With room and board included, all taverns and guesthouses in Cyan Town were fully booked, and arge number of logistics personnel were hired.
This indirectly boosted the economic development of the town.
Of course, despite Leo Ray financing all of this, it was merely a drop in the bucket for him and not worth mentioning.
Seizing the opportunity, Leo Ray instructed Rhizoma Drynariae to dig a trench while rebuilding the city walls, further strengthening the citys defenses.
After everything waspleted, Leo Ray, carrying a full load, hurried back to his territory with his subordinates without stopping.
With the proper materials and tools in hand, the eagerly anticipating middle teams in the territory immediately started working diligently.
While his subordinates began their construction work, Leo Ray, feeling rxed, came to a gently flowing stream in the territory and couldnt help but show a contemtive expression..
Chapter 266 - 266: Sudden Request_l
Chapter 266: Sudden Request_l
Trantor: 549690339
This clear little stream constantly bubbling from the spring, due to the lower terrain, is not very long, only running through half of the territory.
And in other areas near the territory, there are several simr streams with varying elevations.
As he thought about this, Leo Ray squatted down, gently touching the cool and transparent stream water while looking at his reflection in it, continuing to think.
If we could connect these streams to therge moat outside the city wall, forming a perfect water source cirction system, then the territory would have a protective city river, wouldnt it?
Realizing this, a trace of joy appeared on Leo Rays face.
At this stage, although the territorys city wall, with the help of a row of fortresses, has reached an astonishing height of nearly 10 meters, the current 33 meter moat is still a bit too thin.
After the crions, gun tforms and two city gates are fully built, we must first expand it to a width of 5 meters.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray flicked the drops of water from his hand and stood back up.
At this moment, in the sky above the azure filled with white clouds, the light emitted by the two suns gradually diminished.
It seemed that sunset was just around the corner.
Receiving Princess Ariel and her party in the morning, then making the territory look brand new in the afternoon, I have to say today is another busy day.
Stretchingzily, Leo Ray walked towards his mansion in the center of the territory, continuing to think.
Most importantly, he now had 10 Tier 2 Elite Squads, all equipped with Tier 3 gear!
These were temporarily stationed in Cyan Town: two Great Swordsman squads, and one Mage squad.
And in the territory: two Heavy Shield Shooter squads, two Shadow squads, one Half-elf Archer squad, one Heavy Armored Guard squad, and one Werewolf Warrior squad.
With such forces, if we encounter that original invading half-orc army again, in just ten minutes, I couldpletely annihte them with minimal cost.
Thinking about this, while excited, Leo Ray couldnt help but feel somewhat emotional.
Without a doubt,pared to before, his power had already changed dramatically!
But then again, whether its the Coldme Royal Family, which has 8 legions and its subordinate cities with varying troop numbers,
Or the mysterious organization that seems to sneak around with at least 7 Tier
5 powerhouses,
Even the unknown great catastrophe that could happen at any time, the path ahead is still long and arduous.
Leo Ray continued to think with a slight smirk.
In any case, the current developmental direction is still to grow sneakily and deal with certain emergencies,
First, take Princess Ariel and her party as an entry point, while digging into the corner of the haughty Princess Coldme and learning more about the Coldme Royal Familys intelligence.
I believe this can be done quickly with Lindas investigation and the surveince of Serena and Ste.
Thest thing to do is naturally to continue investigating the mysterious organizations every move. As soon as Jasper Richardson returns, immediately start exploring the Immortal Gate in Golin City.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray, who had arrived at the entrance of the mansion,manded the two Earth Guardians next to him to open the heavy doors and walked straight in.
A momentter, he sat back down on the metal throne in the hall.
Leo Ray first opened the Trading Center and withdrew all 750,000 units of stone he had exchanged for 500 Iron Swords to his storage space.
Then he hung up 500 Tier 1 iron spears, again exchanging them for stone at the same price.
Undoubtedly, these Tier 1 weapons, which are seen as treasures by other Lords, For Leo Ray, had naturally long been amassed as old goods.
Right, the amount of copper ingots and iron ingots needed for the next mansion upgrade is toorge. It seems like I need to find a solution quicklyJust as Leo Ray thought of this.
Apanied by a ding sound, his private message alert suddenly sounded.
With a mix of confusion and curiosity, Leo Ray opened the message interface and discovered that the sender was Solomon Rue, who was located in the mountainous region of Golin City.
Since parting ways at the abandoned mine in Golin City, siblings Solomon Rue and Sylvia Moore had maintained contact with Leo Ray.
Not to mention, they would always send him congrattory private messages after every global announcement.
The main reason for this was that although Leo Ray had asked Taylor to temporarily seal off the abandoned mine before leaving, in order to dy the mysterious organizations discovery of the Immortal Gate hidden deep within it.
In order to be extra cautious, Solomon and Sylvia still sent their forces to inspect the mine every day and report back to Leo Ray regrly.
This diligence had earned Leo Rays satisfaction.
Most importantly, Solomons treasure-hunting talent was very intriguing to
Leo Ray.
Could it be that they discovered another treasure?
With that thought, Leo Ray immediately opened the message content.
Master Leo, my sister and I just discovered another secluded cave in the mountains, and theres definitely something good inside!
But, weve run into some trouble again
As expected? Reading the message, Leo Ray chuckled helplessly.
Master Leo, my sister and I led a group of subordinates to the cave, and we happened to encounter another group of Lords seeking to explore the cave.
Fortunately, they are all part of the peaceful faction, otherwise, I fear my sister and I would have been in great danger
Upon reading this, Leo Ray couldnt help but fall into a contemtive silence.
At this stage, as most of the Lords scattered throughout this parallel world had begun exploring the areas around their respective territories, it was inevitable for them to encounter other Lords who had arrived in this world.
As a result, they were roughly divided into two factions based on their actions and responses.
The first faction was what Solomon had just mentioned, the peaceful faction, which advocated for cooperation and mutual assistance and focused on confronting the local indigenous forces.
Lords of this type generally supported each other through alliances and would not easily attack other unknown Lords.
The other faction was, of course, the violent faction that plundered resources from other Lords through force and ughtered others indiscriminately.
Of course, for me, there is no difference between these two types of Lords. If they stand in my way, their only fate is destruction.
He smiled slightly and continued reading the message.
But since those people are not members of Master Leos Fan Club, we dont trust them.
After all, there have been some unscrupulous peaceful faction Lords in the Chat Channel who pretended to form alliances, let their victims do the hard work.
And then they used force topletely take over their wealth and resources.
So, after discussing with the others, we all unanimously decided to have a one-on-one duel to determine the ownership of the cave.
However, once both sides agreed to this n, those guys suddenly burst intoughter
Upon reading this, Leo Ray couldnt help but look even more curious..
Chapter 267 - 267: The Territory in the Mine_l
Chapter 267: The Territory in the Mine_l
Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, Leo Ray, who was sitting on the throne in the main hall of the mansion, slightly shifted his gaze, continuing to look at the semi-transparent private message interface that appeared in front of him.
just when my sister and I were both somewhat puzzled.
From behind the other partys subordinates, a burly man with extraordinary momentum walked out, likely reaching the Tier 2 level.
With such strength, its clear that my sister and Is subordinates are no match And there must be valuable items in that cave.
So, if Master Leo has time, would you be able to help us?
Only Master Leo can repel them.
Of course, after the matter ispleted, we will still follow Master Leos previous distribution method of eight to two for the spoils of war.
Upon reading the private message from Solomon Rue, Leo Rays face had a thoughtful expression.
For him, this was undoubtedly a great opportunity for treasure hunting and adventure.
As for those peace-loving Lords, Leo Ray didnt really care about them; he could simply intimidate them on the side.
Without a doubt, these various Lords could still, in the future, restrain Coldmes forces in various ces, as long as they didnt threaten himself.
Moreover, it would not be a loss for Solomon and Sylvia either.
Although they could only get 20% of the spoils of war, if he did not take action, the two of them would naturally get nothing.
It just so happens that I have nothing to do right now, and the teleportation and returning crystals are quite convenient, so lets just go on a trip. By the way, although teleportation crystals and returning crystals can only be used once every 24 hours,
their essence is to seal a kind of space teleportation magic.
So, once a Tier 5 Spatial Magic Instructor, Jasper Richardson, had always been curious about researching these things in his spare time.
In the end, he modified one for each of us, removing the time limit for use in case of emergencies.
So, even if something goes wrong with Penelope, I can still make it in time.
With that thought, Leo Ray did not hesitate and directly replied with the word
Immediately, Solomon informed him of the agreed-upon time with the other party, which was still 7 0clock tonight.
Next, after telling Solomon that he would use a teleportation crystal to arrive at the appointed time,
Leo Ray closed the semi-transparent interface in front of him, stood up from the throne, and returned outside.
At this time, dusk had arrived and the faint light from the two sunsets made everything around darker.
And the entire territory was still bustling with the sound of construction.
Moreover, many ces were lit with tiny white lights, which were the glow emitted by the Light Crystal Stones.
Arriving at the edge of the territory, Leo Ray walked into a fortress that had been transformed into a barracks and noticed that it was mostly cleaned up. Inside the circr space,
numerous beds were neatly arranged, interspersed with bedside cabs and storage cabs, looking very clean and tidy.
Walking up the spacious stone staircase to the second floor, Leo Ray discovered that the furniture and beds on the second floor were almost identical to the first floor.
However, since this type of two-story fortress had no direct ess to the top of the city walls, these furnishings were temporarily piled to one side.
At the center of the second floor, Fiona Harding, the newly summoned captain of the Shadow Squad, led other ordinary soldiers in building a new staircase to the top of the city wall usingrge, cut stone bs.
Next to them was arge bucket of mixed concrete.
At this point, it was obvious that the project was more than halfway done.And, a skylight has been chiseled out at the position of the roof, just right for soldiers to pass in and out.
Looking at thest trace of orange afterglowing from the skylight, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction.
Greetings, Lord!
On the other side, seeing Lording, Fiona Harding immediately led the soldiers to put down their tools, and bowed together in unison. Keep it up, youre doing great.
With a slight nod of his head, Leo Ray waved his hand casually.
After that, Leo Ray took a tour of the other barracks in session, finding that the construction projects were progressing very well.
At the two main gates at the front and rear of the territory, the construction was led by two Heavy Shield Shooter Squads and a Werewolf Warrior Squad, all of whom had extensive experience in construction.
They were seen carefully measuring the length of the gate and drawbridge brought back by Leo Ray while referring to the drawn construction ns of the city gates, looking very professional.
Under Gavin Sullivans leadership, the Farmer Squad had also started cooking, boiling water, washing rice, cutting meat, and washing vegetables, all in a very busy state.
These dug-up, smokeless stoves are good, but cooking outdoors is not a lonq-term solution. After the city walls are built, lets rece them with Werewolf Tribes stone smokeless stoves, and build a stone house on top of them to create a real kitchen.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray opened the overall overview of the Farmer Squad.
He found that after so many days of being washed in the Qi Condensing Pill, a few people like Gavin Sullivan had reached the Tier 2 Three-star level.
As for the othermon farmers, they have almost all reached Tier 1 Nine-Star, their strength has evidently made tremendous progress.
Not bad at all; it seems that all of my direct subordinates will soon reach the
Tier 2 level.
Raising his eyebrows in satisfaction, Leo Ray sent out a mind talk, notifying the powerful forces of the territory to prepare to go to Golin City after dinner.
Then, he went back to the mansion, casually sat on the top open-air tform of a small newly-built fortress on both sides, enjoying the cool night breeze and gazing at the dusk sky as he quietly waited for the arrival of night.
After dining, Leo Ray gathered all the powerful forces for this operation in front of the Lords Mansion.
Due to the absence of Gideon ck and Serena and Ste, Taylor and Scarlett, this time Leo Ray took Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, two Tier 3 Peak-level powerful mages with him.
Apart from these, it was still the old lineup, including Abigail, Amelia, and Bianca White.
In the territory, Belinda Wright and Owen Montgomery, both three-tier powerhouses, were left along with eight middle teams to guard the home.
Alright, lets prepare to set off.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray handed out Illusion Cloaks to every powerful person while speaking.
A momentter, after everyone was dressed, Leo Ray immediately crushed the teleportation crystal in his hand.
Following that, a pale gray strange energy wrapped Leo Ray and the six otherspletely.
Next, a minute of waiting time passed quickly.
With a sh of a strong light, when Leo Rays vision cleared again,
He found that his party of eight had arrived in a rather dark and spacious cave.
Under the illumination of some fluorescent stones emitting a pale milky white light,
They could vaguely see traces of broken rail tracks around them, creating a sense of quietness.
It seems that this was an abandoned mine.
And standing in front of Leo Ray and his party were the excited brother and sister duo Solomon and Sylvia, along with several ordinary subordinates in farmers attire.
Behind them were two identical Tier 3 Lords Mansions, seven or eight wooden ordinary residential houses and storage rooms.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but look surprised, Good lord, so these two peoples Lords Mansions are actually in an abandoned mine..
Chapter 268 - 268: The Moonlit Path 1
Chapter 268: The Moonlit Path 1

Master Leo, youre here!
On the other side, the two siblings approached with a greeting. Solomon Rue smiled awkwardly and said, Im sorry, Master Leo, that our environment here might not be in the best condition. I hope you dont mind too much.
At the same time, Sylvia Moore nodded vigorously, her heart pounding inexplicably.
Undoubtedly, when they discoveredst time that Leo Ray was the Master Leo they admired, a storm had raged in her heart, and it still hadntpletely subsided.
Its fine. The ce seems very safe, Leo Ray said with a smile, noticing their awkwardness.
The lord siblings were still dressed in their local Golin City attire, with hollowed-out musical notes etched on the cors and cuffs of their clothes.
But now, they had changed into morefortable and flexible dark brown cloth uniforms, along with delicate leather boots and wristbands.
The assembly of farmers behind them was also dressed simrly, looking far better than before when they were in rags.
It seems that the 1,000 gold dragons have indeed improved their lives, Leo Ray thought as he continued to observe the siblings.
Upon closer inspection, Solomon Rue still sported a gentle and cultured demeanor.
Sylvia, on the other hand, still wore her hair in a single ponytail tied with a local-style carved headband, exuding a refreshing, athletic girl style.
Furthermore, both of them had the Tier 3 short swords that Leo Ray had given them at their waists.
Worth mentioning was that they had wrapped the exposed scabbard and hilt of the short swords in worn, faded cloth strips, making it almost impossible to see the weapons true appearance.
Of course, for Leo Ray who had reached Tier 3, his keen perception could still clearly sense the asional energy fluctuations from the swords.
Opposite him, Solomon Rue scratched his head and continued, To be honest, Master Leo, our ce here is an abandoned mine in a remote mountain area. Its quite spacious and has plenty of trees at the entrance for cover, making it rtively safe.
After a brief smile, Solomon added, However, its a bit damp here, making it hard to sleep at night. My sister seems to attract mosquitoes, and our mansion is so close
Brother, what are you talking about! Hearing this, Sylvia hurriedly covered Solomons mouth.
Then, she cleared her throat and spoke softly to Leo Ray, In any case, Master
Leo, we are very grateful for your help.
Sis, why are you talking like that Ouch!
Just as Solomon escaped from Sylvias grasp, he was interrupted by her stomping on his foot before he could finish speaking.
Watching this slightly amusing scene before him, Leo Ray burst intoughter.
Well then, Master Leo, lets get going, Solomon gritted his teeth as he sat on the ground, massaging his toes.
Next, under the guidance of the lord siblings, Leo Ray and his sevenpanions began to leave the abandoned mine.On the other hand, having experienced being mere spectators in the previous events,
This time, Solomon Rue and Sylvia Moore, who knew their own strength was limited, didnt bring too many subordinates, just two efficient-looking farmers each.
In this way, they walked directly out of the abandoned mine, and under the bright silver moonlight, Leo Ray noticed.
The location was on a steep mountainside with many trees and bushes surrounding it, almostpletely concealing the entrance to the cave, making it very well hidden.
It seems that these siblings have good luck indeed. Although the cave is a bit damp, guarding the entrance is more than enough to deal with the surrounding beasts.
The most important thing is that they dont have to worry about the weather.
For instance, someones mansions roof was blown away by the wind earlier. Speaking of which, the fact that their mansion is so close is quite fortunate, isnt it?
As he wandered through the chirping forest, Leo Ray thought so.
At the same time, Joshua Bingaman, Orion Wolfe, and Scarlett, the three powerful mages on their side, had already conjured magic wings and taken to the sky, each keeping their distance from the group and staying vignt of their surroundings.
In the night sky, three slender figures were seen sometimes circling above the peoples heads or hovering between therge trees, which made Solomon and Sylvia marvel, eximing in wonder.
Not long after, following a bushy path on the mountainside, the group passed over another small mountain peak.
A depression appeared in front of everyones eyes.
Breathing the slightly damp fresh mountain air, a faint golden light shed across Leo Rays dark pupils.
With the help of his Star Pupils night vision, he noticed.
This was a narrow valley with a turbulent stream running through the middle
of it.
The shimmering surface of the water faintly reflected the surrounding trees and the two moons in the sky, bringing a sense of serenity to the area. Master Leo, the cave is located downstream on this small stream.
At this moment, Solomon Rue, who was panting heavily, wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said.
Undoubtedly, his almost ordinary constitution had not yet recovered from the fatigue of climbing a small mountain just now.
On the other hand, Sylvia appeared more at ease, with only her heaving chest indicating she had exerted herself. It seemed that she must have practiced a lot in her daily life.
Of course, for Leo Ray, who had abundant energy vortexes within him, this was nothing more than a post-meal stroll.
Thus, the group entered the valley and followed the direction of the stream for about 10 minutes before stopping once more.
Master Leo, the secluded cave is right there!
Solomon Rue, walking at the front of the group, turned back and pointed to a cluster of bushes across the stream.
Looking in the direction he was pointing, Leo Rays gaze went past the low bushes and noticed.
There was a downhill area, and behind the bushes, there seemed to be a cave entrance that was mostly obscured.
However, if it werent for Solomons hint, it would have been difficult to spot at first nce.
The location for the duel is set to be here, it seems that the other party hasnt arrived yet.
After ncing around, Sylvia straightened her chest, her face excited, and continued: We have Master Leo with us this time. Lets see if those people can stillughter!
As her voice fell, a series of desperate screams suddenly emerged from the hidden cave not far away..
Chapter 269 - 269: The Deadly Cave_l
Chapter 269: The Deadly Cave_l
Trantor: 549690339
Hearing the sudden faint screams, Leo Ray and his group standing on the other side of the brook, along with Solomon and Sylvia, couldnt help but show their surprise on their faces.
Soon after, Taylor lowered his body and whispered to Leo Ray, My Lord, after a detailed observation by your humble servant, the aura within the cave is extremely chaotic, indicating that a considerable number of people are inside.
Moreover, the vast majority of them are no different from ordinary people at the Tier 1 level, but due to the twists and turns inside the cave and the weak andplex auras of these people.
Therefore, your humble servant is temporarily unable to determine the exact number and what exactly they have encountered.
Understood.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray rubbed his chin and thoughtfully said, At this time, its unlikely that the people in this remote cave deep in the mountains are residents of Golin City.
It seems that few peace-loving lords did not abide by the agreement of one-on-onebat but went directly to explore.
So thats how it is
Hearing this, Sylvia paused, and then a suddenly enlightened expression appeared on her fair and pretty face, No wonder they set the time at 7 0clock in the evening.
It must be that they nned to return early to prepare tools and then arrive here ahead of time.
Before we arrived, they would have fully explored this ce and then made their escape.
After all, even though the opposing side was stronger at the time, we were not pushovers either.
If a fight started, they would have probably suffered heavy losses.
My sister is right. I always thought those guys were quite cunning, but I didnt expect them to be this cunning.
Hearing this, Solomon Rue pursed his lips and shook his head, Fortunately, we didnt agree to explore this ce together with them, or the two of us might have been used as their pawns.
After listening to their conversation, Leo Ray shrugged indifferently.
In any case, his goal for this trip was very clearit was the treasure deep within the cave.
As for other matters, they naturally had nothing to do with him. The only difference was that the process was slightly varied.
My Lord, those people have started to flee.
On the other side, Taylors coarse voice sounded as he bowed and reported once again.
Lets go and have a look then.
Having said that, Leo Ray skillfully drew a strand of pure energy from the energy vortex within his abdomen andpletely covered his feet with it.
He then walked directly on the water as if he was on t ground, easily crossing the several-meter-wide stream, only leaving shallow ripples on the surface of the water.
At the same time, the other powerful subordinates beside Leo Ray also made the same move, effortlessly walking across the water without getting wet.
Walking walking on water?!
Seeing this scene, Solomon and Sylvia, who were preparing to wade across the stream while they were taking off their shoes and rolling up their trouser legs, couldnt help but exchange nces again.
Without a doubt, the unintentional actions of Master Leo and his group had once again refreshed their worldview.
In this manner, they came directly to the thicket where the hidden cave was located.
They saw Bianca White, who was standing beside Leo Ray, bend down,y on the ground and began sniffing around the cave.
Due to the Illusion Cloak worn by the werewolf girl, she appeared to be nothing more than an ordinary human viger.
Her actions left Solomon and Sylvia puzzled once more, their faces filled with confusion.
A momentter, Bianca White stood up, dusted off the dust on her body, and then returned to Leo Rays side and respectfully said, My Lord, this should be the nest of the Sharp-de Land Beasts.So its that kind of magical beast.
Upon hearing this, Joshua Bingaman, who had justnded, gathered a strand of his loose hair and tucked it back into the hood of his illusion cloak.
He then thoughtfullymented, This Tier 2 Magical Beast has bone tes that resemble sharp des on its back, and its quite aggressive and lives in groups.
Its favorite pastime is to dig winding and twisting caves, disguising them as regr mountain caves. This attracts other magical beasts who seek refuge there and end up caught in their trap.
It seems that this time, they attracted not demon beasts, but a group of overconfident fellows.
Hearing this, Leo Ray chuckled and responded.
Lord, we can now confirm that behind those people running out, there are five magical beasts with strengths ranging from Tier 2 one-star to three-star. These must be the sharp-dend beasts that chased them here, Taylor reported to Leo Ray from the cave entrance.
Well, lets take out those magical beasts at the entrance so that we dont have to bother going in, Leo Ray said with a casual wave of his hand, signaling his team to prepare themselves for the battle.
Hearing this, siblings Solomon Rue and Sylvia Moore couldnt help but swallow nervously and take a few steps back.
They knew that even when facing a single Tier-Second magical beast, without a dozen or two subordinates, they would never dare to approach it, let alone five of them appearing all at once.
That said, if it were any other Lord who disyed Leo Rays calm and dismissive attitude, the sibling duo would have scoffed at them.
However, they were among the few lords who had seen Leo Rays terrifying power firsthand.
As a result, the siblings even felt that Master Leos demeanor was exceptionally modest and approachable!
Soon enough, the sound of frantic, rushing footsteps filled their ears.
As the sounds grew louder, arge group of people appeared in the spacious depths of the cave, holding torches and running wildly.
Under the flickering firelight, Leo Ray squinted his eyes to see the figures within the cave.
The three people running in the front were two young men and a woman, all with panic-stricken faces C the young Lords.
While running, the trio noticed the silvery moonlight prating the cave entrance.
Gasping for breath, the three Lords couldnt help but show a hint of delight on their faces.
However, when they spotted the calm andposed Leo Ray and their powerful teammates, their expressions turned to astonishment.
Since everyone in their group was d in illusion cloaks, they appeared as ordinary vigers to the trio.
Leo Ray had only removed the hooded cap of his illusion cloak, still dressed in in, ordinary attire.
Run quickly, there are magical beasts behind us! the female Lord, who appeared to be in her mid-twenties, blurted out first.
A momentter, upon seeing that Leo Ray hadnt reacted, the astonishment on the trios faces deepened. Could it be that this unfamiliar male Lord, with only a few people apanying him, intended to fight against the magical beasts? Were they seriously overestimating their abilities?
After all, they, as a group of three, had brought fifty people along and still almost lost their lives.
Shocked by this revtion, the trios faces revealed an expression of disdain once more.
If he didnt heed their warnings, then let this guy find out just how terrifying these magical beasts could be.
However, what happened next left the triopletely dumbfounded..
Chapter 270 - 270: The Shock of Three Unfamiliar Lords 1
Chapter 270: The Shock of Three Unfamiliar Lords 1
Trantor: 549690339
The three unfamiliar lords looked disdainful, and that very moment had already passed.
They had escaped the cave in an embarrassing state with arge group of farmers, passing by Leo Ray and others.
Sessfully returning to the outside world, the faces of this group showed a trace of joy after surviving a cmity.
Due to being too exhausted, and also because Leo Ray and others were guarding the entrance, they first maintained a rtively safe distance. Then they stood still, bent over halfway, and began to take deep breaths.
While resting, the three unfamiliar lords saw Solomon and Sylvia standing nearby. They couldnt help but reveal some guilty expressions.
It seemed that, just as Leo Ray had guessed earlier, they were indeed the lords who had discovered the cave with Solomon and Sylvia.
One of them, a thin young lord with medium build, adjusted his ck-framed sses that had only one lens left on the bridge of his nose.
He stubbornly said, We just went in to scout the way without any problems.
And that person at the entrance is the powerful helper you mentioned before? Dont joke around; its hrious!
Thats right, with so few people, are you trying to kill the powerful demon beasts in the cave? If we hadnt lost some subordinates and gotten dyed, we might have been done for in there!
Another chubby red-haired tall lord, while sweating profusely and gasping for breath, continued with contempt, I advise you to run away quickly
As the chubby red-haired tall lord spoke, a low growl of demon beasts echoed in the air.
Five reptile-like demon beasts, with de-like bone tes on their backs and covered in dense dark scales, leaped out from different positions at the cave entrance while roaring.
For a moment, the scene of these demonic beasts with a body length of at least three meters and extremely thick limbs falling from the sky seemed extraordinary.
Seeing this, the three unfamiliar lords were startled. While preparing to continue fleeing, their faces showed a happy expression, as if looking forward to a good show.
It seemed as though Leo Ray and the others standing at the entrance would be devoured by the ferocious demon beasts in the next second.
However, something incredible happened next.
In an instant, the three people only felt a dazzling cold light sh past their faces.
A momentter, when they reopened their eyes, they saw that Leo Ray and the others were still standing where they were without moving a step.
And the demon beasts that were roaring just now had all been cut into two pieces and scattered quietly around the entrance.
Seeing this incredible scene, the three lords and their subordinates couldnt believe their own eyes.
Had the powerful demon beasts that had exhausted them been killed so easily?
The key point was that they couldnt see how the lethal cold light had appeared !
After exchanging nces, the three lords couldnt help but swallow nervously and stared at Leo Ray in shock.
There was no doubt that the calm young lord had hidden an unimaginably powerful force within him!
Realizing this, the three people felt their scalps tingling, and their flushed faces from running turned pale as paper in an instant.
Fortunately, they hadnt done anything too excessive just now, or perhaps the ones lying on the ground now might not have been just those demon beasts.
Taylor, well done.
Looking at the demon beast corpses scattered around, Leo Ray nodded at the burly powerhouse in front of him.
He then waved to Solomon and Sylvia not far away, signaling them to follow. Humph, you underestimated us. Now you know our strength, right?
With raised eyebrows, Sylvias pretty face was filled with pride as she berated the three unfamiliar lords, If it werent for that great mans good mood, all of you would have left here crawling today!
Hearing Sylvias threatening words, the three people quivered involuntarily and didnt dare to refute her.
Please wait, sir!
Just as Leo Ray and the others, along with Solomon and Sylvia, were about to enter the cave, the young female lords crisp voice rang out.
Upon hearing that, Leo Ray, who was surrounded by the main yers, turned his head slightly.
He saw the three unfamiliar lords, two males and a female, jogging over.
Looking closely, besides a thin man with sses and a chubby red-haired man, the young female lord seemed much more ordinary.
With a slightly delicate face, slender figure, fair skin, and a short, unevenly cut fringe and ear-length hair, she paled inparison even to Sylvia next to her.
This cave is extremelyplex, like a maze. It took us three an entire afternoon to find some of the correct paths along with our people.
If you dont mind, could we lead the way for you? It will definitely save you a lot of time!
Taking a deep breath, the young female lord, with a tense expression, tentatively asked, Of course, we dont need any rewards; we just want to express our gratitude.
After all, if you hadnt taken action just now, we might have been caught by those demon beasts.
As the female lord spoke, the two male lords beside her nodded in agreement.
What gratitude? I think you just want to suck up to Ray Christopher! Hearing this, Sylvia, who was standing nearby, looked displeased.
Signaling Sylvia to calm down, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow.
Originally, he wasnt too interested in these three lords.
However, since they proposed to save time exploring the cave, it couldnt be better.
Thinking back, even if they had any malicious intentions, eliminating them would neither cause any harm nor loss to his side.
Moreover, based on Solomon and Sylvias previous description, at least one of these three people must have awakened a talent that allowed them to have a Tier 2 Subordinate.
In addition, they found the cave at the same time as Solomon and Sylvia.
It indicated that among them, there might even be someone who had awakened another exploration-type talent.
These talents could be useful someday.
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray nodded slightly and replied, Leave your subordinates outside and lead the way..

Chapter 271: Cave Maze_l
Trantor: 549690339
Upon hearing this, a look of joy inevitably filled the faces of the three unfamiliar lords.
They ordered the peasants under theirmand to hide in nearby woods, staying on standby.
Afterpleting their orders, they immediately returned, starting to introduce themselves eagerly.
From their descriptions, Leo Ray found out.
The lean male lord with a damaged sses frame, left with only one lens, was named Ss Brooks.
And the tall and somewhat fat male lord, with red hair that has faded considerably, was named Xavier Perry.
Finally, thedy lord with delicate and slender features was named Cheyenne Hamilton.
These three knew each other from their previous lives, having worked together in the samepany for many years.
After being teleported into this world, their respective territories were fortunately not far from each other, so they ultimately formed a small team.
On the other hand, despite Solomon and Sylvia still harboring some hostility towards the three, they also courteously informed them of their names out of politeness.
Brother Sue, we apologize. We were indeed wrong before for not keeping our promise, said Ss Brooks, who adjusted his one-lens sses with an awkward smile, expressing some embarrassment.
Meanwhile, Xavier Perry, who still had sweat beads on his forehead, and Cheyenne Hamilton, a short-haired woman by his side, also hurriedly chimed in.
In the end, they all firmly asserted that they had absolutely no ill intentions towards Solomon and Sylvia.
Hearing this, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly.
To be honest, he didnt see anything wrong with the actions of the three before him.
This was a world where might makes right. Anything unpredictable could happen at any moment.
As such, bing stronger was indeed the best way to survive.
Never mind, we are partners now, so lets focus on exploring the cave next, suggested Solomon Rue, who shrugged slightly after exchanging nces with Sylvia.
At this point, the siblings clearly understood.
Since Master Leo had already spoken, they naturally had no reason to continue giving the three a hard time.
Moreover, no matter what the threes motives were, the end result was that they had indeed cleared the way for them.
Wait, Lord Christopher, arent you that famous Anonymous Bigshot? Cheyenne asked while straightening her slightly messy short hair. A hopeful look appeared on her face, as Ss and Xavier also turned their expectant faces towards Leo Ray.
What Anonymous Bigshot, you guys shouldnt make blind guesses, said Sylvia, beating Leo Ray to a reply. She stood tall with her hands on her hips and continued indignantly, No wonder you guys look down on the Master Leo Fan Club. Turns out you guys are supporters of that ck-hearted tycoon!
So, the reason why Solomon and Sylvia have been holding a grudge against the three is because they did not join the Master Leo Fan Club, Leo Ray thought secretlv- After a moment. he added allite amused. Now that T think about it, the three of them are actually supporting the long dormant Anonymous Bigshotits quite unexpected.
Miss Sue, although our stances are different, you shouldnt casually nder Anonymous Bigshot, Ss Brooks interjected, adjusting his sses. Although the meat Anonymous Bigshot sold was indeed expensive,
he still used his meager ability to help many lords in their time of difficulty continue to survive. Were one of them.
Exactly, back then, if it werent for Anonymous Bigshots meat, I suspect my subordinates would have collectively defected long ago.
Could we have focused on getting familiar with this new world during the safety period, and gotten to where we are today? , Xavier Perry chimed in, wiping the remaining sweat beads from his forehead. If it were someone else, wouldnt the price have been even cker? Anyway, at least Anonymous Bigshots meat was within an affordable range.
Humph, stop bbering. The ck-hearted tycoon and our Master Leo are not in the same league, Sylvia said dismissively, crossing her arms in front of her chest. Also, anyone can be anonymous. How do you know the ck-hearted tycoon who traded meat with you three is definitely the same person?
This
On hearing this, Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton looked at each other in dismay.
Then, Cheyenne stepped up again, dering, Its impossible! Anonymous Bigshot is our faith. He must be a person whos low-key, luxurious, and has depth! Despite the appearance of many imitators, the Anonymous Bigshot who upgraded his mansion to level 5 in the early days of his Advent must be the same person! She cautiously nced at Leo Ray again before adding, Of course, if Anonymous Bigshot is our ideal, then Lord Christopher is our reality
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but feel both amused and helpless.
The Anonymous Bigshot was just a false identity he fabricated.
He didnt expect that one day lords would have conflicts with their faces because of his two identities.
Alright, lets start exploring, Leo Ray said after regaining hisposure and pping his hands.
On hearing Leo Rays words, the five lords immediately nodded, putting their dispute on hold.
Then, under the guidance of Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne
Hamilton,
Leo Ray and his team directly stepped into the cave and started walking deeper into its depths.
This time, Leo Ray did not ask them to light torches. Instead, he gave them each a brighter Light Crystal Stone, which left them marveling in amazement.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stones, the mysteries of the cave gradually revealed themselves in the shadows.
As they progressed, walking on the gravelly cave floor, listening to the slightly eerie echoes of their footsteps, Leo Ray noted:
The spacious cave, continuously winding downwards, was truly peculiar.
They would encounter one or more forked paths after every ten meters or so, like aplicated undergroundbyrinth.
And the three lords leading the way were continuously paying careful attention to the circr markings on the cave walls at the forks in the road, choosing the corresponding paths.
It seemed clear that these markings were left by them previously.
No wonder these guys spent an entire afternoon exploring here before finally encountering the Sharp-de Land Beasts. I have to say, this ce is indeed veryplex, Leo Ray thought to himself.
Using the glow from the Light Crystal Stone to see, the ever-vignt Leo Ray, who was surrounded and protected by his group, began to carefully study the moist, slightly rotten smelling air in the cave.
Without a doubt, since both Solomon and Sylvia and the other three lords were keeping an eye here, it must have something incredibly valuable.
Realizing this, a hint of anticipation appeared on Leo Rays face..
Chapter 272 - 272: The Creature in the Depths of the Cave
Chapter 272: The Creature in the Depths of the Cave
Trantor: 549690339
Thus, guided by Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton.
Leo Rays team of eight, joined by Solomon and Sylvias team of six, continued to cautiously advance in the winding and dark cave as a group of seventeen explorers.
As the group ventured deeper, under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone, Leo Ray nced at the asional dried bloodstains on the cave walls and noticed that.
By now, the rotting smell in the air bes more evident, mixed with a peculiar mint-like fragrance.
Moreover, the initially spacious cave gradually became narrower, but the number of forks evidently increased.
Most crucially, many other demon beast skeletons appeared on the uneven earthen ground surface.
Lord, we have entered the core area of this Trapping cave.
Looking at the increasinglyplex environment around them, the Ice Mage Joshua Bingaman, who was closely following Leo Ray, whispered in his ear.
He could see that a faint cold aura emanated from her slender hands, apparently ready to deal with any sudden situation.
Then, Joshua Bingaman continued, The reason those Sharp-de Land Beasts dug this cave so intricately is to make it difficult for other demon beasts that identally enter to find their way out, making it easier for them to hunt.
The peculiar scent in the air is also one of the Sharp-de Land Beasts skills, meant to mask the smell of other demon beasts remaining in the cave. This confuses their preys sense of direction even further.
So thats how it is. Indeed, theres no end to the wonders of this world.
Leo Ray couldnt help but sigh as he nodded slightly, Speaking of which, Joshua, I didnt expect you to be not only proficient in alchemy but also so knowledgeable about these demon beasts.
Lord, you tter me. It just so happens that during my final year at the Royal
Noble Academy, my end-of-term assessment was to exterminate a nest of
Sharp-de Land Beasts. Thats why I remember it so clearly.
At these words, a smile bloomed on Joshua Bingamans cold face, as she shyly replied.
Lord, I also remember that graduation assessment.
On the other side, Orion Wolfe, who hadnt had much chance to show off, also chimed in, At that time, while the Ice Queen sessfully froze several Sharp-de Land Beasts, she also identally froze two academy instructors in ice sculptures. They spent a whole month in treatment before they fully recovered!
Orion, why are you always sticking your nose in?
Joshua Bingaman furrowed her brows slightly and countered, I was just a bit nervous back then. After all, I hadnt broken through to Tier Third. You also injured several ssmates at that time, including one Dukes son.
In the end, your family paid arge sum of Gold Dragons, and your father, the Earl, went personally to the Dukes castle to apologize.
As a result, when we were promoted to the elite ss, apart from Linda, almost no one dared to team up with you for assessments
Well, Im d I never had contact with these two during our student days.
Hearing this, Leo Ray, who was surrounded by the two women, couldnt help but shiver and refocused his attention on the dark cave in front of him.
In this way, after passing through a long andplexbyrinth-like area, the narrow cave gradually widened again.
It seemed that they had reached thetter half of the cave, the area where the Sharp-de Land Beasts themselves lived.
Mr. Christopher, earlier, the three of us led the others and encountered those terrifying creatures just around the corner ahead.
Seeing Zhao Lu, who was walking at the front, slowing down, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead while speaking with lingering fear.
Lets rest a bit at the back.
Waving his hand slightly, Leo Ray signaled the three to step back and led his subordinates to the front.
Next, turning the corner of the passage in the cave, Leo Ray noticed.
Not far away, there were several lifeless bodies lying haphazardly. Without a doubt, these were the farmers who had just been attacked and killed by the Sharp-de Land Beasts.
Looking at the shocking blood red on the cave wall that hadnt dried yet.
Zhao Lu and the others who had just retreated to the back couldnt help but show fearful expressions and stepped back again.
Solomon and Sylvia also swallowed involuntarily, their throats rolling.
As for Leo Ray, who had experienced many events such as the Border Battlefield, he could naturally remain calm.
Afterward, everyone walked for a while, and suddenly, everything in front of them became clear.
At this point, under Leos leadership, the group had arrived in a rtively spacious underground space.
The area here was about a hundred square meters.
On the ground, there were scattered remains of various white demon beast bones.
However, what was most eye-catching was under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone.
On the four walls of the cave, arge number of ck crystal-like objects with a frosted texture were embedded.
Looking closely, it could be seen that these ck crystals, which reflected a faint light, were almost all over the spaces walls.
More notably, a small portion of the special ck ore contained a faint golden energy, swirling and flowing like a neb in the universe.
This sight made the entire space seem dreamlike at first nce, making people couldnt help but exim.
Thus, even though they were both ck in texture, there were obviously two different ores here.
Additionally, in a corner of the cave, several piles of excavated ck crystals and strange ck ores were casually stacked on the ground around them.
Not bad, not bad. I recognize those ordinary ck ores as Obsidian, a Level 2
Rare Resource that is necessary for upgrading the Guardian Defense
Mechanism and is exactly what I need right now.
I wonder what that strange ck ore is?
With a mixture of joy and curiosity, Leo Ray quickly walked over, picked up a strange ck ore the size of a palm, and opened its attribute column.
So this is a Dark Magic Crystal!
Seeing the name disyed on the attribute column, a surprised and delighted
expression appeared on Leo Rays face again.
Without a doubt, this Level 3 Rare Resource was thest essential resource needed to upgrade the Guardian Defense Mechanism!
I didnt expect to find both missing resources in one go. It seems that the Guardian Defense Mechanism will be upgraded soon!
Thinking of this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate, waving his hand lightly and collecting all the two kinds of resources scattered on the ground into his bag..
Chapter 273 - 273: Work Hard! Five Lords_l
Chapter 273: Work Hard! Five Lords_l
Trantor: 549690339
A total of 3,500 units of obsidian and 200 units of Dark Magic Crystal, right?
After checking the exact quantity of the two types of ore in the Space Bracelet, the joy on Leo Rays face was overwhelming: At this stage, the Guardian Defense Mechanism in the territory is at Tier 3.
The materials needed for the next upgrade are 72,000 units of stone, 60,000 units of Iron Ore, 3,000 units of Obsidian, and 100 units of Dark Magic Crystal.
The first twomon resources are naturally abundant. With the newly obtained Obsidian and Dark Magic Crystals, the Guardian Defense Mechanism can now be upgraded to Tier 4!
In his excitement, Leo Ray continued to think, looking at the uneven stone walls around him, still covered with arge amount of ck ore: At present, all 18 Earth Guardians are at the Tier 2 Nine-Star level. If they are upgraded, wouldnt they all breakthrough to the Tier 3 level?
18 Tier 3 powerhouses can evenpete against 2 Tier 4 powerhouses, let alone Advanced Magic Puppets without consciousness, no fear of pain, and only battle instincts? It seems that mybat power can be greatly improved!
Just as Leo Ray came to this conclusion,
On the other side, the well-built Taylor stepped forward, bowed, and said: Lord, this ore vein seems to have been identally discovered by those Sharp-de Land Beasts.
In my opinion, the abundant ore reserves here and the hardness of the ore are the reasons why those demon beasts only dug out a cavern for their dwellings and did not continue to dig deeper.
I see, it seems that those Sharp-de Land Beasts have unexpectedly done us a great favor.
Saying this, Leo Ray smiled slightly, and secretly thought in his heart: No wonder the area near Golin City, known as the City of Ten Thousand Mines, if I have the chance, I must annex this city as a priority, so I can mine on arge scale!
At the same time, looking around at the scattered unusual ck ore, which adorned the entire dark and damp underground cavern with a brilliant glow,
The siblings Solomon Rue and Sylvia Moore, as well as Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton, couldnt help but show amazed expressions, with their mouths slightly open.
Without a doubt, everything here is a magical sight that they would never have seen in their previous lives!
Tier 2 rare ore and Tier 3 rare ore; it turns out my talent is indeed very urate!
While admiring the scene, Ss Brooks held the sses frame with only one lens on his nose bridge,
observed a Dark Magic Crystal embedded in the rock wall that had not yet been mined, and couldnt help but say.
It seemed that the lord with the exploration talent in this small team of three was going to be Ss himself.
On the other side, noticing Leo Rays gaze, Ss Brooks hesitated, bit his teeth, didnt hide it, and continued: I wont hide it from you, Christopher. My talent was awakened unexpectedly this morning.
Its called Unusual Mineral Prospector, it can be used only once a day, and when its activated, it can vaguely perceive the location of rare ore veins within a radius of one kilometer around me.
This morning I used the talent for the first time, and unexpectedly, I encountered Solomon.
After finishing speaking, Ss Brooks sighed lightly, nced at Xavier Perry and Cheyenne Hamilton beside him, and saw a touch of uncontroble regret in each others eyes.
There was no doubt that although they had also discovered this ore vein, they would not have been able to get here on their own.
Moreover, ording to the agreement with Solomon and Sylvia, with
Christopher present, they had no chance to win the ownership of this ce.
In short, this rare ore vein seemed to be unrted to the three of them.On the other side, seeing the disappointed expressions on the three faces, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, Perhaps, I have a way to let you all gain corresponding benefits here as well.
Are you really serious, Mr. Christopher?
Hearing this, Cheyenne Hamilton, with her long eyshes fluttering, hurriedly asked.
Its actually quite simple.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray, with his hands behind his back, walked slowly through the underground space and continued, As long as you lead your subordinates to mine the ores here for me with all your might, I will naturally give you corresponding benefits as rewards.
With a faint smile, Leo Ray continued, For example, arge amount of copper ore and iron ore, and the number will be higher than what you would get if you mined directly from the respective ore veins.
In addition, the person with the highest mining production each time will receive extra rewards.
At this point, Leo Ray slightly turned his body and spoke to Solomon and Sylvia, The two of you, siblings, will be treated the same, and there wont be any changes to what we had agreed upon previously.
At this moment, Leo Ray smiled faintly, nced at everyone, and said, And one more thing, during this process, if anyone tries to y any clever tricks, I wont mind wiping them outpletely and recing them with someone else.
At this moment, even though Leo Ray still maintained a mild smile, the other lords present, especially Ss Brooks and the other two, suddenly had a chilling feeling and involuntarily swallowed their saliva.
Without a doubt, Leo Rays decision was to make the other lords present work for him and speed up the acquisition of the two types of ores here.
Currently, a lord has about 30 to 40 subordinates, and five lords would be 150 to 200 people, which is already more than enough for this vein at this stage.
Moreover, the prices Leo Ray offered were enough to persuade everyone present.
Although the obsidian and dark magic crystals here are of a higher level,
for the other lords present, these resources have no specific use, while copper ore and iron ore are precious resources that everyone urgently needs.
After all, upgrading the mansion by one level would not only increase the daily number of recruitment orders received, but also raise the poption ordingly, which is indeed a real benefit!
The most critical point is that the amount of copper and iron ores that Leo Ray provides to these people would be higher than the amount they would get by mining copper and iron ores directly.
This fact fundamentally eliminated the idea of everyone setting up their own operation.
On the other side, after listening to Leo Rays words,
the five lords standing in front of him, without any hesitation, almost unanimously said, We are willing!
Undoubtedly, this is obviously the best opportunity for the present lords to further contact this unfathomable big shot!
Especially for Ss Brooks and the other two, although they did not know Leo
Rays true identity, to befriend such a powerful figure in this dangerous world is something they can only dream of!
Just when the three of them were extremely excited, on the other side, Solomon seemed to have thought of something and walked up to Leo Ray once again..
Chapter 274 - 274: The Mysterious Crystal_l
Chapter 274: The Mysterious Crystal_l
Trantor: 549690339
Master Leo, based on our experiencest time when we worked together, I think this ce might not be as simple as it looks on the surface.
With that, Solomon Rue scratched his head and whispered to Leo Ray. You meanthere might be other treasures hidden here?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and then raised his eyebrows.
As he thought back carefully, he had indeed found arge number of Magic Energy Crystals in an abandoned mine before discovering the hidden tunnel to the Immortal Gate.
Thats right, Master Leo. Actually, my talent is called Treasure Tracer.
With a shy smile, Solomon Rue didnt hesitate to exin: Although I can only use it once a day, the effective detection range is two kilometers.
As long as I activate it in a certain direction, I can sense if there is any treasure in that area or nearby.
If I sense something, I just need to keep moving straight in that direction, and
I can find some clues or hints.
It was because of this daily attempt that he had sessively discovered the previous abandoned mine and this new location.
At this point, Leo Rays face couldnt help but reveal a thoughtful look.
From Solomon Rues description, it could be known that.
Although he and Ss Brooks both awakened exploration-rted talents.
However, their operating methods were quite different.
Ss Brooks talent, the Unusual Mineral Prospector, covered a range of one kilometer centered on himself.
While Solomon Rues talent, the Treasure Tracer, covered a straight-line distance of two kilometers and the surrounding area.
Although their effective ranges are not exactly the same, they both have their own strengths.
As he thought this, Leo Ray couldnt help but recall Penelope Welbourns talent, the Blessing Creator and Lincoln Wildes Quiet City Mover, revealing a contemtive expression.
I have to say, the talents awakened by the Lords are truly diverse and ever-changing. I wonder what kind of talents Ill encounter in the future?
As ?? pondered in secret.
On the other side, Solomon Rue continued to whisper, Master Leo, based on our previous experience, the treasures detected by my talent might not just be these rare ores on the surface.
Thats why I had the idea that there might be something more to this ce.
I see. Then lets explore it more carefully.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
He thenmanded the powerhouses around him to fully open their senses and search for any clues that might appear around them.
In this way, after a short time.
Scarletts signature chirping sound suddenly rang out: Lord,e and look!
Upon approaching, Leo Ray noticed that the girl was squatting next to a corner, pointing at something with her finger.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone, Leo Ray followed her finger and found a small piece of semi-transparent white crystal, about the size of a fingernail, hidden in the corner.
Moreover, the position of the small white crystal was right at the junction of the wall and the ground, covered with some soil.
Therefore, it would obviously be difficult to discover without careful observation.
The Attribute Column of the white crystal shows ???, obviously not yet meeting the conditions to check it. It seems that this should be the real treasure.
Just by looking at the color, it was indeed very different from the surrounding Obsidian and Dark Magic Crystals, not looking like naturally growing ores.However, there was no energy wave overflowing from it, and it seemed to have nothing special about it.
At this moment, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a thoughtful expression, secretly saying in his heart, All in all, lets dig it out and take a look first.
With this thought in mind, Leo Rays heart moved slightly, and a craftsman-grade pickaxe suddenly appeared in his hand.
He handed the pickaxe to the burly man beside him while saying, Taylor, dig out this white crystal embedded in the stone wall.
Yes, my Lord.
Taylor took the tool with both hands, saluted Leo Ray, and signaled for others to step back a bit.
Immediately, he covered the pickaxe with a formidable earthy yellow energy and aimed it at the white crystal, swinging it with astonishing speed. The sound of breaking through the air rang out, and at this moment, amidst the dazzling hammering back and forth.
Although it seemed that Taylor was using considerable strength, it was actually not the case.
With each strike of the pickaxe, it never really touched the surface of the white crystal.
Instead, it quickly and urately cleared the surrounding mud and stones, as if he was meticulously carving a sculpture.
Undoubtedly, as a Tier 5 powerhouse, Taylors control over his internal energy had reached a terrifying level that ordinary people could hardlyprehend, allowing him to do this with ease.
On the other side, Solomon and Sylvia, as well as Ss Brooks and others who witnessed this scene, couldnt help but exim in amazement, almost in disbelief.
From their perspective, the Illusion Cloak-wearing Taylor appeared as an ordinary peasant.
However, this astonishing operation, akin to a mechanical arm, undoubtedly exceeded their expectations.
He wasnt a mere peasant, but more like a human excavator!
Amazed, the lords cast respectful nces at Leo Ray.
It had to be said that under themand of this big shotno, giantthere were truly hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
Meanwhile, their own powerhouses also exchanged nces with each other.
Who else besides their Lord could use a Tier 5 powerhouse as a miner?
However, when they remembered that Leo Ray used Taylor as a mount before, they immediately understood.
Just like that, in the blink of an eye, under Taylors meticulous digging.
The white crystal embedded in the wall had all the surrounding mud and stones excavated, revealing its true face in its entirety.
As dust flew around, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes to take a closer look.
He discovered that behind the fingernail- sized white crystal was actually arge cubic crystal about a meter in size.
Upon closer inspection, this one-meter-widerge cubic crystal was a perfect cube.
Its interior was crystal clear, shining brilliantly under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone.
At first nce, it looked like a huge block of ice.
Moreover, the surface of this cubic crystal was engraved with various mysterious patterns, which bore some resemnce to the two miracle buildings in his territory.
In short, it was exactly as Leo Ray had just thought.
Whether in shape or in the patterns, this was obviously not a natural ore.
So its this kind of thing!
As Leo Ray thought about this, on the other side, a surprised and crisp voice rang out. Scarlett, Joshua Bingaman, and Orion Wolfe, the three Mage powerhouses eximed in unison..
Chapter 275 - 275: Three Types of Magical Barrier and Barrier Crystals_l
Chapter 275: Three Types of Magical Barrier and Barrier Crystals_l
Trantor: 549690339
Reporting to the Lord, I can confirm with certainty that this is a highly pure Barrier Crystal!
In awe, Orion Wolfebed through his shoulder-length hair before speaking the words.
At the same time, Joshua Bingaman and Scarlett, who were standing next to him, also nodded their heads in agreement.
Barrier Crystal?
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, signaling for the other party to continue.
On the other side, seeing that he finally had a chance to perform, a touch of joy appeared on Orion Wolfes fair cheeks.
Orion then gathered his spirits and continued, As the name suggests, Lord, a Barrier Crystal is a magical object that can instantly deploy a previously stored Magic Barrier as long as mana is infused into it!
Moreover, as long as the type of Barrier stored inside is not changed, it can be deployed or withdrawn an unlimited number of times, making it very convenient.
Of course, to maintain an expanded Barrier, the same continuous supply of mana is required, just like with regr Magic Barriers.
So thats how it works. This is simply a portable hard drive designed specifically for Magic Barriers.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a contemtive expression amidst his astonishment.
Before this, through several conversations with Jasper Richardson, who had once been a Tier 5 Nine-Star Space Magician, Leo Ray clearly understood.
In this world, Magic Barriers are a very broad term that epasses many fields in both life and war.
But they can be divided into three main types:
The first type is a variety of ordinary functional Barriers.
The second type is Magic Restrictions.
The third type is Barrier Regions.
Firstly, theres no need to mention the ordinary functional Magic Barriers.
Not long ago, the Eye of Insight constructed by Daisy Sasha and her elite Mage Squad in the territory was one such example.
These Barriers generally have unique functions.
For example, the Eye of Insight can weaken or break the effects of invisibility and illusion within its effective area, leaving enemies attempting to infiltrate the territory with nowhere to hide.
Another example would be the Barriers separating the alchemists during the Golin City Alchemist Convention, which had the effect of isting sound and smoke, among others.
It seems that the kind of Magic Barriers that can be stored in this Barrier
Crystal fall into this first category.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray continued to ponder.
Secondly, regarding Magic Restrictions, also known as perfect magical locks, he had encountered them several times before.
For instance, the Treasure Vault door of Cyan Towns former City Lord, the hidden restrictions at the entrance of the Elf Underground City, and the unopened deep areas of the Elf Underground City and the Immortal Gate.
Having said that, although this kind of Magic Restriction is referred to as a
perfect magical lock, it is not merely a lock on a door.
Instead, it is a massive Barrier that seals an entire room or even an entire area.
Therefore, if one cannot unlock it, it would be impossible to enter the area enveloped by the Magic Restriction, no matter from which angle.
With a slight twitch of his lips, Leo Ray fell into thought once again.
Taking the Immortal Gate with its Tier 5 Magic Restriction as an example:
Even if someone tried to take a different path, open a new passage from another angle and detour around it, it would be impossible. However, as long as it was in the direction leading to the Immortal Gate, they still only encountered the same strength Tier 5 Magic Prohibition in the end.
Furthermore, this kind of magic restriction is a self-contained existence withplete energy storage and absorption functions, which is why it can exist for a long time.
Without the corresponding strength or the matching key, it is absolutely impossible to open.
Thoughtfully, the conversation with Jasper Richardson resurfaced in Leo Rays mind.
As for thest type of Barrier Area, he had also experienced it himself; that was the Half-Elf Barrier that forms its own space.
This type of Barrier Area is also the mostplex magic barrier, and when constructing it, they need not only the relevant technology of the first two kinds but also the help of space mages. It can be quite cumbersome.
In short, even constructing the simplest functional magic barrier is an extremely time-consuming andbor-intensive task, which can be seen from the construction process of the Mage Squad.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray looked at the crystal-clear giant Barrier Crystal in front of him and couldnt help but ponder.
From this, it can be seen that the Barrier Crystal, which can unfold the preset magic barrier at any time, is indeed a very convenient item.
For example, on the battlefield, if a defensive-type barrier is stored and activated at a critical moment when attacked by the enemy from a distance, It could significantly reduce casualties for their own soldiers!
However, it is said that defensive barriers, especiallyrge-scale wide-range barriers, are the most magic consuming and cannot be maintained for long. But one can imagine that if used properly, they can still have unparalleled effects!
Realizing this, a trace of joy appeared on Leo Rays face.
Undoubtedly, following this train of thought,
This Barrier Crystal, capable of instantly deploying a magic barrier, can obviously be his trump card, ying a significant role at critical moments.
Lord, the Barrier Crystal is an extremely rare existence, only possessed by some aristocratic families. Moreover, the size and purity of this Barrier Crystal are among the best I have ever seen.
These two factors are crucial to determining the quality of a Barrier Crystal and also directly rted to the effective range of the stored magic barrier and the amount of magic power consumed.
On the other side, stunned by the scene, Orion Wolfe respectfully saluted Leo
Ray and said, Im afraid that in the entire Coldme Kingdom, only the Coldme Royal Familys Barrier Crystal can rival this one.
Not bad, this is a good thing.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a more curious expression, and then asked, Does this Barrier Crystal contain some kind of magic barrier?
Please wait a moment, My Lord.
After saluting Leo Ray again, Orion Wolfe calmed down and took a step forward, cing her slender hand on the crystal-clear Barrier Crystal in front of her.
In an instant, a faint golden energy emerged from her lean and strong body, which then wholly flowed into the Barrier Crystal in front of her.
The next second, the Barrier Crystal emitted the same bright light for a moment, then immediately returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this, a trace of disappointment appeared on Orion Wolfes delicate face.
She sighed softly, then helplessly shook her head and said, Reporting to the Lord, since the Barrier Crystal stores a non-human races magic barrier, I cannot activate it.
Subsequently, Scarlett and Joshua Bingaman, eager to try, also gave it a shot with Leo Rays permission.
In the end, they all obtained the same result of being unable to activate it.
Does this mean that the original owner of this Barrier Crystal was another non-human race? If thats the case, why would such a precious Barrier Crystal appear in a ce like this?
With doubts, Leo Ray once again opened the Attribute Column of the Barrier Crystal, and found that the original ? had changed to something new..
Chapter 276 - 276: The Ecstatic Duo 1
Chapter 276: The Ecstatic Duo 1
Trantor: 549690339
The attribute column showed the following information:
[Name: Barrier Crystal]
[Resource Level: 4 (Rare)]
[Specifications: loocm*loocm*loocm]
[Purity: S-ss]
[Storage Barrier: ??? ]
[Note: This is a nearly perfect purity barrier crystal that has experienced long periods underground. It once belonged to an ancient race that had once prospered on this continent.]
Inside the crystal, a unique auxiliary magic barrier is stored, which can only be activated by the magic powerhouses of that ancient race.]
It turns out that like the Elf Core I found earlier, this is also a rare resource of up to Level 4.
To think that for most of the current lords, even obtaining Level 2mon resources like copper ore and iron ore is an extremely difficult task, let alone a Level 4 rare resource like this.
As he examined the text on the semi-transparent dialog box in front of him, Leo Rays eyes moved back and forth, showing a thoughtful expression.
That said, is it true that only powerhouses of the corresponding race can activate the barrier stored inside? But which race left this crystal behind?
Judging by the strange magic patterns on the surface, its clearly different from the Light Healing House of the Elf Tribe. The patterns of the Elf Tribe are more rounded, while the magic patterns on the surface of this Barrier Crystal have more obtuse angles.
Having realized this, Leo Ray looked at Scarlett, Orion Wolfe, and Joshua Bingaman nearby, who were also magic powerhouses.
In response, the three of them shook their heads helplessly, as none of them had seen such magic patterns before.
Never mind. Based on the note, this barrier crystal should be at least a thousand years old. The ancient race it belonged to probably disappeared into the long river of human history long ago.
Ill ask Jasper Richardson when she returns. Perhaps the half-elf ancestor might have some clues.
As Leo Ray thought about this,
On the other hand, the siblings Solomon and Sylvia, as well as Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton, all had confused expressions, seemingly unaware of why, but feeling that something very impressive had just happened.
Without a doubt, at this stage, those who had not been exposed to magic like them would naturally not understand the conversation between Leo Ray and the others.
Next, after further exnation from Orion Wolfe, Leo Ray learned most people couldnt activate barriers stored in the crystal.
Since the Barrier Crystals resonate within a certain range,
Leo Ray didnt hesitate to ask Taylor to continue digging nearby.
As expected, the party soon dug out another Barrier Crystal of the same size using this mysterious maic-like reaction.
However, this time, there was no barrier stored in the newly found Barrier Crystal, implying that it had never been used before.
Not bad at all, one with a mysterious barrier, and one brand new. Quite a harvest.
After confirming that there were no more barrier crystal reactions in the surrounding area,
Leo Ray casually waved his hand and collected the two transparent crystal stones, which looked like giant ice bricks, into his bag.
This scene made Solomon and the other lords present show a look of envy on their faces.
Although the storage wooden box in each lords territory has the same function, it cannot be used outside of the territory.
It can be seen how convenient it would be to have a portable storage space.
While the lords were envious,On the other side, Leo Ray first flicked off the dust on his Illusion Cloak.
Then, walking casually to Solomon and Sylvia, he said indifferently, This time, the information you provided was urate. However, due to the nearly priceless nature of these two Barrier Crystals,
I will meet a reasonable request from you. If you need anything, just ask.
Thank you, Master Christopher!
Hearing this, both Solomon and Sylvia couldnt help but show uncontroble joy on their faces.
Undoubtedly, their overall strength was far inferior to that of Ss Brooks, who had just fled in embarrassment.
To defeat those five Tier 2 Sharp-de Land Beasts and sessfully reach here in the depths of the underground cave would be an impossible task for them.
So, the brother and sister duo, who were just spectators throughout the process, were naturally overjoyed to get a chance to make a request from Master Leo.
Thus, after whispering with Sylvia for a few moments, an excited Solomon stepped forward and tentatively said to Leo Ray, Master Christopher, can we get a few Tier 2 Recruitment Orders in exchange for these two crystals and the ores we mined earlier?
As he spoke, both Solomon and Sylvias simr facial features revealed an identical look of expectation.
It was no doubt that this morning, they were at an absolute disadvantage against Ss Brooks and hispanions because of their Tier 2 Subordinate.
This fact had been weighing on their minds the whole day.
Therefore, upon hearing that they could make a request, both immediately thought of this.
Of course.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Immediately, with a move of his mind, four metallic Tier 2 Recruitment Orders appeared in his palm.
So as long as there was an upgrade, he could get a steady ie of 100 to 300 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders every day.
Thus, giving away a few of these was not a problem.
ording to the previous distribution method, the vast amount of ores and Barrier Crystals here, along with their immense value, were obviously worth far more than these few Tier 2 Recruitment Orders.
Also, if they had stronger Tier 2 Subordinates, they could naturally work more efficiently for him.
The most crucial point was that Leo Ray wanted to set an example in front of the other three Lords.
He wanted them to clearly understand that if they fullymitted to the tasks he assigned, they could reap corresponding benefits.
In summary, no matter from which perspective, Solomon and Sylvias request was within the scope he could ept.
Thank you very much, Master Christopher!
Receiving two shining Tier 2 Recruitment Orders each, the joy on Solomon and Sylvias faces was evident, and they were almost dancing with excitement. On the other side, just as Leo Ray predicted,
Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton, all showed uncontroble envy and longing on their faces.
Without a doubt, starting from this moment,
Solomon and Sylviasbat power had already surpassed theirs by a significant margin!
Seeing this, Leo Ray gave a faint smile and continued with the next topic..
Chapter 277 - 277: A World You Don ‘t Understand from the Big Boss
Chapter 277: A World You Don t Understand from the Big Boss
Trantor: 549690339
After that, Leo Ray took out an extremely delicate set of white porcin teaware and an exquisitely carved redwood tea table and sofa from his space bracelet, and sat downfortably.
These valuable items were personally selected by Leo Ray this afternoon at Sanders Trading Conference during the break when his subordinates were purchasing supplies.
Each of them was a rare treasure worth at least ten thousand gold dragons. At that time, ording to Linda who had apanied him,
Even the aristocrats and wealthy merchants from the upper-ss society had to think twice before purchasing one or two of these items,
Of course, for the extremely wealthy Leo Ray, these things were no different than the stools and stic chairs sold at roadside stalls in his previous life.
Scarlett, heat it up.
Next, Leo Ray lifted up the kettle filled with clear spring water and handed it to the respectful Hani girl standing by.
Yes, my Lord!
Scarlett epted the kettle and with one hand holding the handle, she raised the other hand and a raging me suddenly rose, heating the water.
Across from him, Su Ruru and Su Momo, as well as Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton, could hardly believe their own eyes.
Especially after witnessing Leo Rays unique way of heating water, they all showed a stunned expression.
Magic, that was the incredible magic!
The world of the boss is indeed unimaginable luxury
In this way, Leo Ray began to make tea while inviting the Lords to sit down and officially start the next topic.
Although these exquisite teawares, which were quite unique in style, and many were notplete,
But in Leo Rays previous life in the Summer Realm, his people were undoubtedly the ancestors of tea-drinking. At that time, Leo Ray, who worked for a living, also had a keen interest in this area.
Therefore, he still managed to prepare this otherworldly tea with a refreshing and mellow taste, which made the other Lords all praise endlessly.
With his smooth and elegant way of making tea and the strong aroma of the tea that wafts in the air, even Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, who were from the aristocratic ss and had received Coldmes etiquette training, couldnt help but praise and have their eyes shining. They all expressed that they would definitely request the lord to teach them this delicate techniqueter.
Through further talks, Leo Ray learned that
At present, Su Ruru, Su Momo, and Ss Brookss territories are all located in the Hundred Ranges, near Golin City in the Old Mining Area.
Furthermore, ording to Su Ruru and Su Momos knowledge, these territories had already beenpletely abandoned a century ago, and the only wooden bridge leading to Golin City was no longer in use.
It was merely by chance that Su Ruru and Su Momo found a narrow and rarely visited animal trail and finally arrived in Golin City.
As for the current Golin City, it is dedicating all its efforts to mining the new mining area on the other side of the mountain range, which is not connected to the territories Su Ruru and others reside in.
From this, it can be seen that this ce is still rtively safe in terms of geography. People from the territory will not be disturbed by locals.
However, due to the territories having been abandoned for a century, this area has already be the habitat for some low-ranked demon beasts.
This point was beyond doubt.
In that case, in addition to providing copper and iron ores, giving you some weapons and armor to increase self-protection is not impossible either.
However, you must show enthusiasm in working.
At this moment, Leo Ray, who already had a general understanding of the surrounding environment, said while sipping his tea.
Please rest assured!
On the other hand, the five of them spoke in unison, showing a eager-to-try look.
As for the mined ores, just pile them up here. Transporting them back and forth is too time-consuming. Ill periodicallye to collect them.
After a brief contemtion, Leo Ray put down the exquisite teacup in his hand and continued speaking.
That being said, Leo Ray made such a decision because,
as an Otherworldly Lord, he could only use the Trading Center, trading functions, and attachment functions within his own territory.
Moreover, whether it was items exchanged or items collected, they could only be first stored in the storage wooden box within the territory, before being used for other purposes.
Therefore, if he let the lords in front of him mine the ores and then transport them back to their own territories, it would undoubtedly be an extremely time-consuming andborious task.
Understood!
Upon hearing this, Solomon Rue, Ss Brooks and the other three responded in unison.
Leo Ray stood up and nodded slightly. After the other lords stood up as well, he put away the teacups and furniture in his bag.
In this manner, after instructing the five lords again,
Leo Ray signaled the powerful subordinates around him to stand close, and then crushed the Returning Crystal in his hand, which was emitting a hint of coldness.
The next moment, a green light curtain rose, engulfing Leo Ray and the others within it.
Immediately after, Leo Ray noticed, that he received friend requests from Ss, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton.
As time passed, with the five lords watching, the green light curtain around Leo Ray and hispanions became increasingly dense.
In an instant, a dazzling white light shed, and Leo Ray and the others vanished into the depths of the cave filled with ck ores.
At the same time, several doors of light appeared, and four Tier 2 subordinates in different attire arrived in front of Solomon and Sylvia.
When Leo Rays vision cleared, he found himself back in his familiar territory.
Looking at the Lords Mansion standing under the night sky and the three Earth Guardians, he couldnt help but heave a sigh of relief.
The loot from the underground cave trip was plentiful.
Not only did they discover the mixed ore vein of obsidian and dark magic crystal, and had the five lords mine for him,
they also gathered all the necessary resources to upgrade the miracle building, Guardian Defense Mechanism.
The most critical part was finding two invaluable and powerful Barrier
Crystals, making the trip worthwhile.
Alright, everyone, go get some rest.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray stretched and told the subordinates beside him.
At this moment, he noticed,
under the illumination of the silver-white double moon, the territory was brightly lit, with construction sounds heard constantly.
It seemed that after using 50 fortresses to encircle the entire territory, the construction of the city gate and crions was still ongoing.
Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray brought the resources and rushed straight to the Guardian Defense Mechanism at the north of the territory, which emitted a faint blue light.
It looks like Ill soon have 18 Tier 3 Advanced Magic Puppets!
Feeling excited, Leo Ray didnt hesitate and pressed the upgrade button for the building without dy..

Trantor: 549690339
The next second, the long-lost system prompt sound entered Leo Rays ears.
[You consumed Stone x72000, Iron Ore x60000, Obsidian x3000, Dark Magic
Crystal XIOO]
[Guardian Defense Mechanism LV3 is upgrading, please wait]
Under the deep blue night sky, the light curtain surrounding the Miracle
Building was like a vivid aurora, making people feel refreshed and invigorated.
While waiting, Leo Ray first epted Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamiltons friend requests.
Then, he directly went to the Shadow Squads Fortress Barracks that he visited in the afternoon.
Climbing the staircase to the second floor of the fortress, Leo Ray noticed.
At this moment, the staircase leading to the city wall on the second floor had been fullypleted.
Only a few Shadow Squad soldiers were still polishing the newlypleted stair steps.
Upon closer inspection, the staircase, which still had the fresh smell of concrete, was thick but not steep.
The width of the staircase was the same as the entrance, allowing at least three fully armed soldiers to advance side by side.
As such, in the event of an emergency, the subordinates in the fortress could undoubtedly quickly climb the city wall to defend, which is quite impressive.
Greetings, Lord!
On the other side, seeing Leo Ray arrive, a few Tier Second soldiers immediately stood up and saluted, respectfully saying in unison.
Waving his hand slightly to signal everyone to work normally, Leo Ray walked up the staircase and continued his inspection.
Just like that, he stepped onto the newly constructed city wall today, a cool breeze immediately blew at his face, refreshing and invigorating, Leo squinted and looked around.
He saw the soldiers working on the crions on the city walls throughout the territory, which was an orderly scene.
And many ces had already built some unfinished low walls.
Seeing this, Leo responded to the greetings of the soldiers around him while looking down at the outside of the city wall.
With the help of the night vision effect from the Star Pupil, Leo noticed.
The first thing that appeared around the territory was a huge 3m* 3m trench.
Then, arge number of thick and sharp abatis were arranged, followed by the vast forest.
At this moment, standing high above the ground, Leo looked at everything in front of him and couldnt help but feel emotional.
Without a doubt, whether its the Lords Mansion that now resembles a castle, the two stunning Miracle Buildings, or the city wall surrounded by 50 fortresses.
Compared to the lonely little wooden hut at the beginning, his entire territory had undergone earth-shaking changes.
It could now be considered a heavily defended military fortress.
Just as Leo sighed in his heart, his private message notifications started ringing one after another.
Opening the message detail, Leo saw that it was Ss Brooks, Xavier Perry, and Cheyenne Hamilton who had sent the messages.
It seemed that they had just recovered from their shock.
The content of the messages, aside from being surprised at Leo Rays real identity, expressing their shock and excitement, as well as various implicit and seemingly casual ttery.
Also, they all sternly imed that, from now on, they support only Master Leo, and as for Anonymous,pared to Master Leo, its simply not worth mentioning
Seeing this, Leo couldnt help butugh in helplessness while covering his face.
Well, I didnt expect my real identity to capture the supporters of my fake identity.
However, essentially speaking, these three people did not betray their faith.
With a slight pout, Leo left the city wall and returned to the upgrading Guardian Defense Mechanism.
At this moment, the sound of automatic construction within the colorful light curtain had significantly weakened.
It seemed that the upgrade was entering its final stage.
As expected, the familiar sound soon rang out again.
[Congrattions, your Guardian Defense Mechanism has reached Lv: 4!]
At the same time, the dazzling colorful light curtain started to turn into weak light particles, like fireflies, disappearing into the vast night.
Looking at the significantlyrger Guardian Defense Mechanism, Leo couldnt help but exim as he paced around to observe.
Upon closer inspection, this originally regr hexagon-shaped building had turned into a regr octagon.
Each vertical wall of the structure had at least a three-meter-high gate, all of which were currently closed.
Moreover, the lower part of the building had changed from a stone structure to a full metal structure.
The metal patterns embedded on the surface had be more intricate, and a few special ck crystal patterns had been added.
Thebination of the two different textures made the entire building more mysterious and profound.
Under the reflection of the double moon, it emitted a peculiar deep blue cold light.
Seeing this, Leo opened the Attribute Column of the building with great anticipation.
[Guardian Defense Mechanism Lv: 4] [Owner: Leo Ray ID: 0013076067]
[Earth Guardians Number: 24/24]
[Building Special Effect One: Guardian Charging Iv4 Can charge Earth Guardians, reducing charging time moderately]
[Building Special Effect Two: Guardian Creation IV/+ If an Earth Guardian is destroyed, a new one can be created (CD: 9h)]
[Materials required for upgrading: Stone X150000, Iron Ore X120000, Obsidian x6000, Dark Magic Crystal x200]
Looking at the text in the Attribute Column, a hint of joy appeared on Leo Rays face.
Wow, I didnt expect the number of Earth Guardians to increase from 18 to 24!
Feeling delighted, Leo didnt hesitate and went straight inside the upgraded Guardian Defense Mechanism.
Entering the Miracle Building, Leo noticed,
that this was still a spacious hall without any partitions; the smooth walls were covered with various patterns, emitting a faint blue light.
Originally there were 18 charging pods, which had also been increased to 24.
However, what was most eye-catching were the Earth Guardians themselves.
At this time, apart from the three Earth Guardians charging inside, six brand -new Earth Guardians stood proudly.
Furthermore, Leo could clearly feel, that the aura of each Earth Guardian was much more formidable than before.
These towering warriors, armed with heavy swords and shields, exuded an incredibly intimidating presence, giving people a strong sense of security.
Seeing this, with great anticipation, Leo directly opened the Attribute Column of one of the Earth Guardians..

They really all advanced to the Tier 3 powerhouse level, huh?
As he examined the attribute column of an Earth Guardian, a delighted expression emerged on Leo Rays face. He muttered to himself, And they even added an active defensive skill!
Closing the attribute menu, Leo Ray went straight to one of the Earth Guardians. Gazing at its massive body, which was almost as tall as Taylor, he couldnt help but show a contemtive expression.
Without a doubt, looking at their skills,pared to their offensive capabilities, these Earth Guardians, wielding their heavy stone shields, were clearly more inclined toward defense. Whether faced with physical attacks or magical attacks, they could provide excellent defensive effects.
If I think about it, these Earth Guardians are perfect as personal guards. It would be great if I could take them with me.
With this thought, Leo Rays brows furrowed slightly.
But even though these Earth Guardians can operate anywhere outside the territory,
their limited energy does not allow them to engage in high-intensity, longstingbat after a long journey.
Moreover, these tall golem puppets are too conspicuous and are not convenient to always have by my side. It would be perfect if they could appear like summoned creatures when needed.
This way, they could also serve as a hidden card.
At this moment, after contemting for a while, Leo Rays eyes suddenly lit up, clearly having thought of something.
Thats right! If I store these Earth Guardians in my storage bracelet when I go out, I can release them at critical moments, right?
Upon realizing this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate and immediately began to try it out.
He waved his hand, and in an instant, he collected all nine Earth Guardians in front of him into his storage.
They really can be stored in the storage bracelet!
Overjoyed, Leo Ray had another idea.
The next second, nine powerful and tall warriors materialized out of thin air, perfectly forming a small defensive circle to protect him in the middle.
Nice! Spot on!
Excitedly rubbing his hands, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and readjusted the other 15 Earth Guardians outside.
They were still divided into five groups, one for guarding the front gate, one for guarding the back gate, one for guarding the Lords Mansion, one for guarding the two miracle buildings, and thest group for recharging energy.
In this way, not only are there 15 additional Tier 3 powerhouses within my territory, but I can also summon 9 at any time by my side. Its just too perfect!
With excitement, Leo Ray walked out of the Guardian Defense Mechanism and returned to the Lords Mansion.
After that, while seated on his throne in the main hall of the mansion, Leo Ray.
First, Scarlett, Amelia, Bianca White, and Belinda Wright were called over and each was given a Rose Gathering Energy Pill.
Currently, none of these few had reached the Tier 3 Nine-Star level yet, so it was necessary to hurry up and cultivate them.
Immediately afterward, Leo Ray upgraded Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe with the Qi Condensing Pills he had made today.
Due to moving in the afternoon and just returning from the Old Mine District of Golin City, only four Qi Condensing Pills were made in the morning.
In the end, he sessfully obtained 200 Qi Condensing Pills and 2 Rose Gathering Energy Pills.
Then, Leo Ray called Roger Smith, themander of the Heavy Armor Guards
Squad, Luther Blues and Russ Blues, themanders of the Heavy Shield
Shooter Squad, Dean and Fiona Harding, themanders of the Shadow Squad, and Owen Montgomery, themander of the Werewolf Warrior Squad, over to him.
Greetings, Lord!
A momentter, the six middle squadmanders appeared in front of Leo Ray in an orderly fashion.
You have worked hard today.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray waved Roger Smith over first.
Roger, you and your deputymander have reached the Tier 2 Nine-Star level, right? These two Rose Gathering Energy Pills are rewards for your hard work recently.
Right after that, with a move of Leo Rays mind, he handed the two fragrant Tier 3 magic medicines to Roger and said, I hope you all continue to work hard and do not disappoint me.
Thank you very much, Lord!
As he took the Rose Gathering Energy Pills from Leo Rays hand, gratitude filled Rogers determined, silver-haired face.
Roger was older than the othermanders by a good margin.
Therefore, breaking through to the Tier 3 powerhouse at this age when his body is still robust meant that his warriors journey was far from over!
Without a doubt, the improvement in realm would also mean an increase in lifespan and physical fitness!
Seeing this, the other fivemanders, especially the four neer squad leaders, showed envious expressions on their faces.
The four of them were all seasoned Tier 2 powerhouses; ording tomon sense, they were still a long way from breaking through to Tier 3 powerhouses.
The scene before them undoubtedly showed them a glimmer of hope, and the Tier 3 level they had longed for was no longer out of reach!
On the other side, noticing the changes in the others expressions, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Giving the Rose Gathering Energy Pills to Roger in front of the others was a way to further motivate the new middle squads to work harder.
As for the other five squads, today is your first day in the territory, so consider these as my wee gifts.
With a faint smile, Leo Rays mind moved, and nearly 500 Qi Condensing Pills were instantly spread on the ground.
It was needless to say how shocked themanders were, their eyes almost popping out. After everyone had left,
Leo Ray extracted the 750,000 units of stone obtained from the 500 long spears he had previously put up for trade at the Trading Center, and put them in the storage wooden box.
Immediately, he put up another 500 weapons of the same type for exchange for thatch.
Since the exchange ratio of thatch to stone was 4:1, Leo Ray set the exchange price at 6,000 units per weapon.
Afterpleting all of this,
Leo Ray was about to go upstairs to rest when a familiar Mind Talk notification suddenly rang out.
It seemed that after half a day of surveince and investigation by Linda and Serena and Ste, there should be some new news about Princess Ariel in Cyan
Town..
Chapter 280 - 280: The Mysterious Incident_l
Chapter 280: The Mysterious Incident_l
Trantor: 549690339
Just as their mind talk was connected, Linda and Serenas crisp and energetic voices entered Leo Rays ears simultaneously: Good evening, Lord! Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
It must be said that hearing the clear and efficient voices of his two valiant subordinates was quite reassuring.
Linda, you go first.
Leo Ray, slightly raising his eyebrows, sat on his throne. He picked up an exquisite silver teapot and poured himself a cup of spring water, then spoke.
Yes, my Lord!
Lindas efficient report echoed again: Just as you suspected, my Lord, not long after you left, Princess Ariel summoned me to her room and began to inquire about you.
Oh? So it is as I thought
Hearing this, Leo Ray took a sip of water from his wooden cup, then smiled faintly: It seems that this Fifth Princess of Coldme is indeed easy to see through.
Moreover, shes most concerned about our specific strength and the location of our territory.
Immediately, Lindas voice rang out again: Following Lords orders, as the Lord of Cyan Towns advisor, I ambiguously conveyed a series of bizarre pieces of information to her.
For example, your Lordships territory is located deep in a Demon Beastsir in the Hundred Ranges, and some people have seen you riding a true Dragon n member, soaring through the sky, and so on
Very good.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a satisfied smile.
In this world, the Dragon n is an extremely proud and formidable creature.
Their weakest members possess power at least at the Tier 4 level, and a Tier 6 Purple-winged Demon Dragon, like the one he encountered in the Half-Elf Illusion Realm, is an extremely terrifying existence.
Of course, due to the vastness of the continent and the rarity of the Dragon n, who have a very strong territorial consciousness and rarely leave their territories, its difficult to encounter them.
However, throughout human history, there have indeed been many Dragon Knights.
These Dragon Knights, without exception, are legendary figures, revered and worshipped by many.
In short, only by gaining the genuine approval of the Dragon n can one persuade such a noble and formidable creature to bow down and willingly be a mount.
And this is something that over 99% of top-tier fighters cannot achieve, even if their power is greater.
Thinking of this, Leo Rays face showed a hint of anticipation, and he thought to himself: Perhaps, in the future, I too can tame a dragon; it remains to be seen.
Regaining hisposure, Leo Ray put down his wooden cup and continued:
Seeing that she must be puzzled after hearing our tales, I suppose Princess Ariel is still in a daze, right?
With a faint smile and pondering, Leo Ray looked at the remaining half of the clear water in the wooden cup and went on: By the way, Linda, did she have any suspicions about your identity as the City Lords advisor?
My Lord, Princess Ariel did indeed probe me many times.
From the other side, Lindas respectful voice came through again: However, following Lords instructions, I used my cover as a member of the Sanders Family infiltrating the Otherworldly Lords inner circle, and did not reveal any ws.
Very good.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and then asked: Did they bring up any other matters?
My Lord, in addition to that, Princess Ariel also inquired in detail about the geographical environment around Cyan Town, particrly showing great interest in the other surrounding towns.
Following that, Lindas clear voice rang out once more.
Oh?
Hearing this, Leo Rays face couldnt help but show a look of deep thought, and he said: It seems that in addition to avoiding the power struggles in the royal capital, this Ariel has another purpose in her visit to Cyan Town.
My Lord, regarding this matter, both Serena and I have noticed some clues during our surveince.
On the other side, Serenas crisp voice entered Leo Rays ears: After Linda left, this Coldme Princess invited the two Tier 4 powerhouses apanying her, Giant Axe General Burt and Holy Light General Joshua, to talk.
During that, besidesining about the lordship as overlydomineering, she also mentioned that matter several times.
But since the three of them didnt discuss this matter in detail and only decided to stay low for a while and let us lower our guard before making other ns, It seems the Fifth Princess hasnt been speaking well of me behind my back.
Leo Ray chuckled helplessly, took another sip of water, then continued: Speaking of which, since they n to lie low for a while, its all the better for us to undermine their loyalty.
Looking at the ripples in the water inside the wooden cup, Leo Ray continued: Linda, how is the investigation into the background and identity of their entourage going?
My Lord, I have divided their entourage into three parts: two Tier 4 Kingdom Generals, five Tier 3 personal maids, and two middle teams of Imperial Guards, as well as other misceneous personnel.
From the other side, Lindas more neutral voice rang out again: We are secretly investigating them now, and I believe we will soon have some leads. Very good. Youve both done an excellent job.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray stood up from his throne at the head of the hall and began to stretch his limbs.
He continued: In that case, our focus in the next stage should still be on monitoring Ariel and investigating the identities of her entourage.
Only by rifying the identities of some of the entourage members can we tailor our approach to undermining the loyalty of Princess Cold me and obtaining more useful information on her.
Of course, we must also carefully monitor that matter and figure out her other purpose foring here as soon as possible.
Yes, my Lord!
At the other end of the mind talk, Linda and Serenas efficient voices entered Leo Rays ears simultaneously.
With that, after giving further instructions to the two, Leo Ray closed themunication and headed upstairs to his mansion.
It was time to rest and prepare for the new day.
It seems there are many intriguing details surrounding this Ariel.
A momentter, lying on the spacious bed, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a yful smile: But since she hase to me, many matters will naturally not be up to this arrogant fifth princess of Coldme..

Chirp- Tweedle!
The next morning, as Leo Ray had expected, he was woken up again by the chirping of the orioles.
I have to say, this rm clock is really punctual. With a slight smirk, Leo Ray sat up in bed and nced out the window.
As the orioles chirping became more cheerful, the sky outside was still a vast expanse of deep blue.
Didnt I ask Gavin Sullivan to deal with the bird nests yesterday? Why does it seem like there are even more sounds now?
Thinking about this, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly and thought to himself: Well, the strange sound waves emitted by these little guys have a pretty good interference effect, and they can hide the breath of the people in the territory.
For the territory, it can provide no small help, and can also be used as an rm clock. As long as I get used to it, it doesnt matter.
Immediately after, Leo Rays mind moved, and he threw a Rose Gathering Energy Pill into his mouth, starting his routine practice every morning.
With closed eyes andplete concentration, Leo Ray naturally blocked out all surrounding sounds.
Soon, he perfectly refined the Tier 3 Magic Medicine, filling the Physical Energy Vortex in his body to a new level.
Then, without hesitation, Leo Ray snapped his fingers and swallowed a Qi Condensing Pill.
In this way, when Leo Ray opened his eyes again, a hint of brilliance emerged from his pupils, undoubtedly indicating that the Magic Energy Vortex had also been greatly strengthened.
Next, after exhaling a breath of turbid air, the refreshed Leo Ray opened his attribute column.
[Name: Leo Ray]

Physical Tier 3, 5-star, Magic Tier 2, Nine-Star, huh?
Seeing this, a hint of joy appeared on Leo Rays face as he murmured: It seems that the Magic Energy Vortex in my body is only one step away from the third tier.
Once I break through the shackles, I can try to learn and use the Flying
Technique like Scarlett and the others!
After rejoicing, Leo Ray jumped out of bed, and after washing up, he went straight to the Lords Office on the same floor.
Walking up to the Manufacturing Magic Array, a contemtive expression appeared on Leo Rays face: Its still 8 hours of production time every day. This means that approximately 1200 units of Copper Ingot or Iron Ingot can be produced every day.
I guess Ill make Copper Ingots first since Iron Ingots can be obtained by dismantling Tier 3 Weapons.
With his mind made up, he set up the production sequence and opened the territory interface.
At present, the poption numbers are 900/1000. If I want to dig into Ariel Watsons territory in the near future, I will undoubtedly need to leave some room for additional poption and wont be able to summon aplete middle team.
With a level 7 Mansion, I can choose to receive 3 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders every day or 18 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders
Looking at the text on the interface, Leo Ray thought to himself: In that case, Ill take the 18 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders first.With this, I can at least recruit a batch of Tier 3 Powerhouses first and further enhance the overall strength of the territory.
Having thought this through, Leo Ray did not hesitate to im 18 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders and start upgrading them directly.
In the end, he obtained 9 Tier 3 Recruitment Orders and over 900 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders.
Currently, I have 2,810 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders, one Tier 2 Recruitment Order left, and 17 Tier 3 Recruitment Orders, right?
After checking the existing tiered recruitment orders, Leo Ray stepped out of the Lords Office while continuing to ponder, Tier 1 Recruitment Orders dont need to be discussed any further, as they cant be used to upy the poption.
Also, lets not consider Tier 2 for now. As for Tier 3, a few need to be saved for digging princesses from other kingdoms and for backup.
How about recruiting a small team of 10 Tier 3 Powerhouses first?
With that in mind, as Leo Ray walked downstairs, his face showed an expectant expression, ording to previous experience, as long as there are more than two people recruited together.
The higher the probability they will be subordinates from the same ce. I wonder what kind of Powerhouses I will get when I directly recruit a Tier 3 team?
Excited, Leo Ray had already reached the first floor of the Mansion and directly pushed the door open.
At this time, the azure sky had alreadypletely brightened, and arge and small sun rose, casting beam after beam of warm dawn light.
The fresh air, mixed with the slightly muddy smell of concrete, made people instantly feel refreshed.
Listening to the neat and loud slogans mixed with the asional lilting calls of the Orioles, Leo Ray strolled around, looking all around.
Currently, his eight Middle Teams were conducting morning exercises.
Thanks to the newly transformed Territory, a lot of space had opened up.
So, even though there were eight strictly aligned square arrays for morning runs and exercises, there was no sense of congestion.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and arrived at the main gate of the Territory.
He saw that therge stones and concrete had been piled up as the foundation for the City Gate Tower at the location of the City Gate, between the two surrounding Fortresses.
It looked like it could amodate five fully armed soldiers walking side by side, which was quite good.
With that, Leo Ray strolled around the Territory for a while, then called Taylor over to apany him in practicing swordsmanship for a while.
It wasnt long before the smell of food filled the Territory.
As usual, Leo Ray asked Gavin Sullivan and the others to leave ten more portions of food for the neers.
Then, all the Middle Team soldiers and the main Powerhouses were gathered in front of the two Miracle Buildings in the north of the Territory.
At a nce, after the upgradest night, the Guardian Defense Mechanism had be a huge octagonal building emitting a faint blue light.
Together with the nearby Light Healing House, which was like a Temple emitting a faint golden light, they created a refreshing and pleasant scene. Alright, its time to wee our newrades.
Seeing the eight-square array lining up and being surrounded by Powerhouses like Taylor, Leo Ray smiled faintly and directly used 10 shiny Tier 3 Recruitment Orders.
In an instant, along with several brilliant golden light gates shing, Ten formidable figures appeared in front of Leo Ray and the others.
At the center of the team, when Leo Ray saw the attire of the ten new subordinates not far away, he couldnt help but reveal an unexpected look of surprise..

Chapter 282: The Summoner and the me Fighter_l
Trantor: 549690339
What entered Leo Rays field of vision was not the armored warriors or martial artists he had imagined, but a group of tall, burly chefs and slender servants. Looking closely, Leo Ray saw that on his left hand side stood an upright old man with white hair.
From his immacte ck tailcoat, white shirt, ck bowtie, meticulous hairstyle, and white handkerchief draped over his arm, it was clear that he was a well-mannered old steward.
Behind him were four young, attractive maids, dressed in the same ck and white uniform.
These maids were elegant and well-groomedpared to ordinary servants. Their makeup and hairstyles had clearly been carefully tended to.
They were almost on par with Abigail, Amelia, and Ariel Watsons personal maids.
With a slight nod of approval, Leo Rays gaze shifted to continue his observation.
On his right hand side were five men holding various kitchen utensils such as pots, spats, and knives, dressed in spotless white chef uniforms.
Particrly the one in the lead, a long scar ran diagonally across his coarse face, making him look even more battle-hardened than a typical warrior.
As for their weapons, they were either hanging by their waists or slung on their backs.
In summary, these sturdy chefs all had their own unique qualities, but each of them was an imposing presence.
Two Tier 3 five-stars and eight Tier 3 three-stars? Goodness, Ive summoned quite the formidable squad.
Amidst his surprise, sensing the impressive aura emanating from the ten people before him, Leo Ray couldnt help but secretly marvel.
On the other side, the old steward and the burly chef leading the group didnt waste a moment, quickly bringing the other powerful beings behind them over in a jog.
As they approached, the two leaders immediately kneeled down, burying their heads low as they respectfully said, We greet you, Lord! We are willing to give our all for you, and to add a touch offort and pleasure to your life!
Immediately after, the remaining eight new subordinates also knelt on one knee, swearing loyalty to Leo Ray.
Rise, our journey ahead is long, and everything now is just the beginning. With a slight nod, following tradition, Leo Ray bent down to help each person stand up one by one.
Afterward, Leo Ray learned through a brief introduction.
The old stewards name was Warren Dexter, and the burly man with a scar on his face was Rudy Blues, the Head Chef.
During this process, as they saw the dazzling Miracle Buildings by their side, the orderly formations of eight elite soldiers, and the formidable aura radiated by Taylor and other powerful beings,
The loyalty of these ten Tier 3 new subordinates began to ascend as expected.
[Congrattions, your subordinate Tier 3 five-star Summoner Warren Dexter has developed a great admiration for you. Loyalty increased by 21 points, currently at 71 points.]
[Congrattions, your subordinate Tier 3 five-star me Fighter Rudy Blues has developed a great admiration for you. Loyalty increased by 21 points, currently at 71 points.]
[Congrattions, your subordinate]
The increase in loyalty of these new subordinates is almost the same as the Tier 2 soldiers. It seems that the two Miracle Buildings and other highlights still have considerable shock value for Tier 3 powerhouses.
Hearing the continuous prompts in his ear, Leo Ray thoughtfully nodded slightly.
Unquestionably, what he needed to do next was to seize the momentum and raise the loyalty of these subordinates to the maximum.
With this thought, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes and continued to observe.
He discovered that among the new subordinates weapons, only Warren Dexter and Rudy Blues had Tier 3 level weapons, while the rest had top-quality ones from Tier 2.
Old Steward Warren Dexter is a never-before-seen magic-rted upation, a Summoner, with a magic wand as his weapon.
As for Head Chef Rudy Blues, hes a rare Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation powerhouse, with w stabs as his weapon. It seems that he leans more towards the physical side.
As for the other eight, are they half physical-based and half magic-based upations? Since I have Tier 1+ weapons for all of them, why not just upgrade them all at once?Thinking of this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate.
With a wave of his hand, five Tier 1+ short staves, four Tier 4 w stabs, and four Tier 4 longswords emitting a strong colorful aura appeared before everyone.
These five Tier 4 magic wands, called Elemental Star Wands, were upgraded from the Mage Squads weapons.
And the four Tier 4 longswords, named Hermit Silver Swords, were upgraded from the Heavy Armored Guards Squads weapons.
Thest w stabs were spoils of war obtained after defeating Michael Wood at the Immortal Gate.
On the other side, just as the ten new subordinates were amazed at the presence of their Lord, which was no weaker than any of them.
The sudden appearance of the dazzling ten Tier 4 weapons in front of them once again plunged everyone into an irrepressible state of shock.
It is important to know that Tier 4 weapons could be described as being hard toe by.
Even as Tier 3 powerhouses they were, they could spend their entire lives working without food or drink and still have almost no hope of obtaining any.
And the Lord just casually took out ten of them..
These weapons will serve as my gifts to you, I hope you will adapt to life in the territory as soon as possible, said Leo Ray, nodding in satisfaction at the stunned expressions of the crowd.
Just like that, through this series of actions, the loyalty of the ten people unpredictably rose to 100 points.
Then, Leo Ray opened the attribute columns of everyone in session.

After closing the attribute columns of his subordinates, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction.
Undoubtedly, from this moment on, his own forces had once again been greatly strengthened!
However, what happened next was even more surprising to Leo Ray..

After this, as per usual, it was time for the neers to be weed and get settled, so everyone gathered together for breakfast and conversation.
However, when Rudy and the other five Tier 3 powerhouse chefs saw todays breakfastan ordinary vegetable and meat stew, along with freshly cooked elf ricethey couldnt help but frown slightly.
They then expressed their desire to show off their skills for their lord and colleagues.
Seeing the eagerness on their faces, Leo Ray, who was also curious about the culinary skills of these neers.
Naturally, he didnt refuse, and immediately instructed Gavin Sullivan to have people bring all kinds of seasonings and various new kitchen utensils from the warehouse.
After two massive purchases at the trading hub of Cyan Town, the amount of supplies in the territory had already reached a terrifying level, enough to fill arge supermarket.
On the other hand, seeing such well-equipped facilities in the territory, Rudy and the others couldnt help but show a hint of joy on their faces.
They rolled up their sleeves one after another, and under Rudysmand, they began to work in an orderly manner.
At this point, Leo Ray witnessed for the first time the unique cooking methods of this different world.
First and foremost, the most eye-catching was a middle-aged, strong man named Isaac Torres.
After checking his stats, Leo Ray discovered.
This man, who was almost as strong as Gideon ck, was a Tier 3 three-star Hydro Magician.
After quickly reciting a few incantations, arge rotating water ball about two meters in diameter formed in midair, and began washing the vegetables.
This giant water ball could quickly wash away the dirt from the vegetables without washing off a single leaf, which was quite magical.
In no more than a minute, Isaac Torres had washed at least a hundred pounds of vegetables, tossing them into the air one after another.
The water droplets on the green leaves, under the sun, shone brilliantly, dazzling the onlookers.
As expected of a Tier 3 Water Flow Mage, this is like a ruthless vegetable washing machine. I bet hes even faster at washing dishes,
Leo Ray silently praised him as he watched.
At the same time, another swordsman named Mike Barley, holding a kitchen knife in each hand, had quickly and perfectly deboned arge number of cooked pork ribs.
He was now processing the huge amount of vegetables washed by Isaac Torres.
He attached his inner energy to the two kitchen knives and swiftly sliced the vegetables into neat, thin strips in midair before letting them fall into arge wooden basin nearby.
This guy has a Dual de Skill as a passive ability. I didnt expect him to use it for cutting vegetables,
As Leo Ray watched, his gaze shifted to another Tier 3 three-star Fire Mage named Owen Patel.
At the moment, this burly chef was frying seven or eight steaks and pork chops with butter on arge metal te.
As for the frying method, it was to use magical power to control the heat as he pleased.
On the metal te, thick and aromatic steaks and pork chops sizzled and emitted a mouthwatering aroma under the perfect me.
The fragrance of butter and rich meatbined to create a unique, charred scent; the aromatic air was enough to make one salivate. Moreover, while swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Leo Ray noticed.
Although it was the same metal te, the heat was not the same.
This burly chef named Owen Patel was simultaneously frying one, three, five, seven-minute cooked, and well-done steaks, managing to have them ready at the same time, which was quite amazing.
However, amongst them all, the most eye-catching was naturally the Head Chef Rudy.
At the moment, he was controlling the heat with incantations while frantically tossing the huge pot anddle he had brought with him.
At a nce, the giant pot itself weighed several hundred pounds; it was hard for ordinary people to even move it, let alone toss it.
ording to Leo Rays estimation, the food in this pot could feed at least an entire middle team of soldiers.Amidst the rising mes, the massive amount of ingredients in the pot were constantly tumbling and jumping, with arge amount of aroma spreading out immediately.
Combined with Rudys whole body bursting with muscles and dazzling spooning skills, it formed a very unique scene, making it hard for people to keep up with everything happening.
No wonder Ariel didnt like the cooking in Cyan Town. It turns out that the top chefs in this world cook like this.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray couldnt help but shake his head helplessly amidst his astonishment.
Soon enough, these five Tier 3 Powerhouse-level chefs had cooked several dishes at an unbelievable speed for everyone present.
First, a steaming hot te of grilled pork chop and a te of grilled beef were served before Leo Ray.
After taking a bite of the sizzling, oily meat, Leo Ray couldnt help but show satisfaction on his face.
The meats exterior was crispy and fragrant, while the inside was tender and smooth, with rich but not greasy juices. It was simply perfect.
Next up was a te of deep-fried boneless meat.
After tasting it, Leo Ray nodded his head repeatedly.
Spicy, fresh, tender and vorful, it could only be described as a delicious dish.
Meanwhile, even Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, born into traditional Coldme nobility and having tasted all of the top dishes in Coldme, couldnt help but praise the taste of the food, clearly being captivated by it.
The other ordinary subordinates were even cheering, as they had never eaten such delicious food in their lives.
When I take Rudy and the others to Cyan Town someday, Ill let Ariel taste the cuisine prepared by my chef team to see if she can find any faults. To conquer a princess, start with her stomach and her corner, Leo Ray thought as he enjoyed his meal.
After breakfast, Leo Ray called the five chefs over.
Rudy, you guys did a great job.
Leo Rayplimented with satisfaction as he slightly nodded to the head chef in front, From now on, the meals in the territory will be your responsibility.
Ill have Gavin Sullivan and the others fully cooperate with you. Later, well train more good chefs, and when the timees, rewards will be given ordingly.
Yes, my Lord!
Upon receiving Leo Rays approval, Rudy and the four others couldnt help but show happiness on their faces, nodding and bowing repeatedly.
As for Warren Dexter and the four maids, youll be in charge of cleaning my mansion from now on.
Also, the sewage treatment systems for the various fortress barracks are under construction.
If any of you can set up a Sewage Treatment Magic Array, that would be even better.
Next, Leo Ray spoke to the old steward in a ck tailcoat.
Rest assured, my Lord, all basic magic arrays are required courses for us professional servants.
With neatlybed white hair, Warren Dexter bowed respectfully, replying to Leo Ray.
Very well, lets find you temporary amodation for now. The mansions space is currently limited, but once its expanded, you can move in.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray led the way and assigned the nearest fortress to the ten Tier 3 powerhouse members to live in.
So, once the amodation for the ten new subordinates was properly arranged,
Leo Ray returned to the Lords Mansion and summoned all themanders, the old steward, the head chef, and the powerful members of the middle team through Mind Talk, beginning the arrangement for todays work..
Chapter 284 - 284 Setting off! Destination Viennas City
Chapter 284: Setting off! Destination Viennas City
Trantor: 549690339
A momentter, after all the powerhouses andmanders had gathered.
Leo Ray, sitting on the throne, looked over at his subordinates in front of him while assigning todays tasks.
First, the two Heavy Shield Shooter Squads, two Shadow Squads, Heavy Armored Guards Squad, Half-elf Archer Squad, and Werewolf Warrior Squad, your main tasks are still to build the city gates and crions separately.
At the same time, a small number of soldiers should be assigned to work on the construction of the sewage treatment system and the finishing touches to the stairways leading to the city walls,
Leo Ray then ordered while looking at the seven squadmanders standing neatly below him: Of course, the daily defense work in the territory must not be neglected. Each squad must have a fully armed team guarding their respective positions at all times.
Understood, Lord!
On the other side, themanders stepped forward and saluted in unison.
After the encouragement of yesterday, all the faces of these subordinates were eager.
Especially Roger Smith, who had already advanced to the level of Tier 3 Powerhouses, was full of gratitude and couldnt wait to get to work.
Very good, I am looking forward to your outstanding achievements today.
Nodding slightly, Leo Rays gaze fell on the head chef who had just arrived in the territory.
Continuing, he said, Rudy, your task and that of the other chefs is to build the kitchens within the territory.
As he spoke, Leo Rays mind moved, and a stack of [Building Blueprint: Werewolf Smokeless Stone Stove] appeared in his hand.
He signaled for Rudy toe forward to get it, turned his head, and spoke to the tanned middle-aged hunter, Gavin Sullivan, you are responsible for leading the Farmer Squad to assist on the side.
Understood, Lord!
As Rudy and Gavin Sullivan respectfully took the building blueprint from Leo Ray, they bowed and spoke in unison.
As for Warren Dexter and the four maids, their task is, of course, to assist the various barracks in building the Sewage Treatment Magic Array.
Immediately after, Leo Ray nodded to the old steward and instructed him.
Understood! Rest assured, Lord, said the old steward, giving a standard gentlemans bow.
Furthermore, Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe will still devote themselves to the refining of Qi Condensing Pills to prepare for the refining of higher-tier magic medicine.
Turning his body slightly, Leo Ray continued to address the two genius-level alchemists.
Understood, Lord!
On the other side, the two pretty noblewomen curtsied in unison, bending down.
Just then, the prompt for Leo Rays Mind Talk suddenly sounded.
Upon connection, Lindas crisp and efficient voice came through, Lord, I have just received news of Sanders Trading Conference. This afternoon in Coldmes trading capital, Viennas City, there will be arge auction. Do you have any interest, Lord?
At this point, Lindas voice paused for a moment, then continued: My apologies, Lord, because of my low status in the Sanders Family, I only
received the news sote
No problem.
Hearing this, Leo Rays eyebrows couldnt help but raise slightly.
Without a doubt, he had heard the word auction many times since he crossed over into this world.
It was said that each time it was held, there would be many rare items that were hard toe by in everyday life, such as rare magic medicines, equipment, and various scarce materials, etc.
However, suchrge-scale events were usually held only in cities of a certain scale.
And because Cyan Town was located in a remote area, Leo Ray had never found the opportunity to attend one.
At present, both my financial and personal strength have reached a quite impressive level. Moreover, Ick many of the materials needed to refine magic medicines and forge weapons. I must say, this is an excellent opportunity.
Realizing this, excited, Leo Ray continued to specte: I wonder what interesting things we will encounter this time?
As for the location of Viennas City, the trade capital, I have an idea. It is a city in the ind area of the Coldme Kingdom, located to the west of Cyan Town, which has convenient transportation.
In terms of function, it is almost an erged version of Cyan Town. It usually takes more than ten days by carriage to travel the normal distance. But for me, it will take less than two hours.
Having thought about it, Leo Ray hesitated briefly before saying: Linda, wait for me in Cyan Town. Tell Mason Banks to prepare as well. Well go there together. Youre more familiar with the ce, so it will be more convenient for us to act.
After closing his mind talk, Leo Ray addressed his subordinates at the lower seats: Alright, everyone, start your work ording to the original n. As for Taylor, Scarlett, Abigail, Amelia, and Bianca, follow me to Cyan Town first.
So, after arranging all the matters, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a contemtive expression.
This time to Viennas City, he would definitely encounter some powerful nobles and major forces.
Therefore, it was necessary to make sufficient preparations. However, given the current situation, it was best not to draw too much attention.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray hesitated for a moment and went directly to the courtyard, calling all the Earth Guardians over, and took them all into his Space Bracelet.
In this way, he would be carrying 24 Tier 3 powerhouses with him. Together with Taylor and the others, as well as Linda and Mason Banks, they would be able to deal with any threat.
After all, Viennas City, the trade capital, was just a slightlyrger city in the surrounding region, simr in scale to Golin City.
Next, having everything ready, Leo Ray rode the white wolf Bianca, leading the main force, and headed towards Cyan Town in a whirl of dust.
Lord, you have arrived!
Seeing Leo Rays figure, Linda and Mason Banks, who were all dressed up and waiting in the secret room of Sanders Trading Conference in Cyan Town, bowed their heads and saluted together.
No need for formalities, how is everything going?
Smiling faintly, Leo Ray, who had just arrived, and Taylor and others surrounding him, asked while adjusting the Illusion Cloak on his body.
Undoubtedly, he chose this location to avoid attracting unnecessary trouble by being noticed by Princess Ariel and her party.
Lord, we have informed Princess Ariel about Sanders Trading Conference, and told her that we will not be in the city today. This did not raise any suspicion.
Besides, the investigation on Princess Ariel and her party is being carried out by our elite Trading Conference insiders. Please rest assured, my Lord.
On the other side, Linda held her fists and bowed again.
Very well, lets get ready to set off.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray put on his hooded cap again and smiled lightly:
Lets go! Our destination is Viennas City, the trade capital!
Chapter 285 - 285: Arrival at Fanyin City_l
Chapter 285: Arrival at Fanyin City_l
Trantor: 549690339
With that, Leo Ray and his party of eight set out from Cyan Town, heading straight for Viennas City under the scorching sun.
Of course, to avoid attracting attention, they chose the smaller roads that deviated from the main paths at Leo Rays suggestion.
Moreover, thanks to Taylors exceptional perception, even if they happened to encounter other powerful people on their journey, they could easily avoid them without any issues arising.
Currently, in the subordinate team, Linda, Mason Banks, and Abigail had all reached the peak level of Tier 3 Nine-Star.
Scarlett and Amelia were at the Tier 3 Eight-Star level.
Even the clueless Bianca White had already stepped into the ranks of experienced Tier 3 Six-Star powerhouses.
Together with Taylor, whose capabilities were at the Tier 5 ceiling, this lineup could be described as luxurious.
Because of this, whenpared to the groups fast travel speed, even regr Tier 3 powerhouses could only be left in the dust.
On the way, Leo Ray learned more about Viennas City and the uing event. Firstly, the auction was being organized by the City Lord of Viennas City,
in coboration with the local Sanders Trading Conference, Merchant Union, Mercenary Guild, and several other major organizations.
For the surrounding regions, it was a grand event.
Not only would nearby citys nobles and wealthy merchants attend upon hearing the news,
but there might also be some other forces, such asrge mercenary corps, adventurer teams, or independent knight corps, for example.
There are many freedom-loving powerful people in these organizations that are not affiliated with the Coldme Royal Family. If I could make connections with some of these forces, it would be highly beneficial for my territorys development,
While speeding along and tightly holding Bianca Whites tuft of fur, Leo Ray felt the wild wind blowing in his face,
as he continued thinking, Of course, the best way would be to turn these powerhouses heads into my direct subordinates.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray lowered his body slightly, and thought further, Moreover, ording to Linda, this Sanders Trading Conference here is quite peculiar; it is jointly controlled by the Sanders familys direct and coteral lines, with constantpetition and intrigue.
Nevertheless, although the coteral line of this Sanders family is also suppressed by the direct line, it has a rtively strong force and holds a dominant position within the entire familys coteral line.
If I can win them over, it would be equivalent to indirectly obtaining the support of the entire coteral line of the Sanders family. This would undoubtedly provide great assistance to Lindas ascent to the position of the head of the Sanders family.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray thoughtfully said, After all, these coteral line members have long been suppressed by those direct lines.
Realizing this point, Leo Ray nced at the rapidly retreating scenery around them, and couldnt help but show a pensive expression, It seems that I must find a way to achieve this as quickly as possible. The simplest and most direct way would naturally be to first drive the direct lines power out of Viennas City.
Even if it causes retaliation in the future, with my substantial financial backing, I doubt they can do much. After all, within the Sanders family, it is expressly forbidden for the direct and coteral lines to engage in open war.
Of course, this does not apply to me.
With a faint smile, Leo Ray, who felt a bit stiff, slightly turned his body,
and changed to a morefortable position on the wide wolf back, continuing to ponder, All in all, it seems that this trip to Viennas City will be quite an interesting journey.
At the same time, as Leo Ray was mulling things over, the outline of arge city began to gradually appear in everyones eyes under the zing sun.
Alright, lets start walking normally.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded to the powerful people around him and casually ordered.
Yes, Lord!On the other side, the subordinates immediately stopped and put on their Illusion Cloaks once more.
Thus, as their group drew closer, the appearance of the entire city became increasingly clear.
Upon closer inspection, the city walls were almost the same as those of Golin City, reaching five or six meters in height.
Furthermore, numerous arrow towers stood atop the walls, and the soldiers armor gleamed brilliantly, disying formidable defenses.
However, for Leo Ray now, such a configuration could only be described as ordinary.
Back then, when I went to Golin City, my strength was only at Tier 2 Five-star, and my territory only had wooden walls that were just over two meters high. But now, not only have I reached Tier 3 Five-star level,
but my territory has also been upgraded with stone fortresses forming the city walls standing up to ten meters high. The most crucial thing is that Cyan Town has 3,000 defense soldiers, as well as Maron Citys 3,000 defense soldiers,
together with the werewolves and the half-elf tribe, and eight directly affiliated Tier 2 middle teams, my strength has long since improved significantly.
With such thoughts, Leo Ray strode forward and arrived at the city gate.
Here, the flow of people had be extremely dense, almost to the point of overcrowding, bustling and noisy.
From their attire, they were mostly merchants with carts, variously colored mercenaries apanying them, and ordinary civiliansing in and out.
As expected of the trade capital, Viennas City, both the scale of the merchants and the density of the city are far superior to Cyan Town. It seems that agriculture is also very developed. I wonder when I can get it under my control?
Lost in thought, Leo Rays dark eyes swept across the vast stretches of green fields outside the city as he looked around.
The elegantly dressed merchants and in-clothed civilians went without saying,
but the mercenariesing and going, just like in Cyan Town, still dressed in a wide array of haphazard outfits.
However, their strength was clearly superior, with many elite members not only at Tier 2 level,
but Leo Ray, with his keen perception, even discovered several mercenaries at the Tier 3 level.
Throughout the journey here, there were indeed many areas gued by demon beasts and banditry along the way, be it mountains or dense forests. This is probably the reason why the mercenary business is flourishing.
With this in mind, Leo Ray gestured to his subordinates around him, moving further towards the city gate, and continued observing.
Beyond the multitude of merchants, mercenaries, and civilians, apanied by the neighing of horses,
asionally, luxurious carriages passed by, surrounded by elite guards in neat armor.
On thesevish closed carriages, various noble crests were disyed, indicating the noble status of their owners.
At the same time, in the sky, rumbling noises continued as different shapes of flying airships slowly descended towards the city in an orderly manner,nding one after another.
This caused the surrounding people to let out exmations from time to time.
Look! Thats the Montgomery ns crest! Its said that the second son of Marquis Ryan has just sessfully married the legitimate daughter of a royal family from the capital!
Isnt that the ckwood ns emblem? I heard their Grand Elder just broke through his shackles and stepped into the ranks of Tier 4 Powerhouses, being directly granted the title of Earl by the Royal Family!
Thats definitely thetest model of the flying airship! The lines are so elegant. The price for one of those must be at least 100,000 gold dragons, right? Id be content just to touch it!
During this time, as some of therge flying airships passed by, knowledgeable merchants directly identified the family name from the crests on them, causing exmations of astonishment.
Quite interesting, those who can afford these flying airships are definitely high-ranking noblesing for the auction, right?
I must say, the more I look forward to this grand event.
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray had already stepped into the gates of
Viennas City..

Chapter 286: The Hot-Tempered Woman in

Trantor: 549690339
Following the bustling crowd into the city and stepping onto the neatly repaired cobblestone streets, Leo Ray noticed that the market here was extraordinarily lively.
On both sides of the wide streets, as far as the eye could see, there were various types of stores. Each storefront was surrounded by a dense crowd, with endless sounds of hawking and bargaining.
There were not only noisy children buying candy, elderly people carrying vegetable baskets, potbellied merchants, and mercenaries joking around, but also dignifieddies protected by warriors, noble youths and girls dressed in luxurious clothes, and mysterious mages wearing cloaks.
In short, the scene was one of prosperity everywhere.
Taylor, how are the results of your investigation?
As usual, while looking at the surrounding shops with interest, Leo Ray asked Taylor.
My Lord, the number of powerful characters here is slightly greater than that in Golin City, said the rough, deep voice of Taylor, who had his detection senses turned on, as he narrowed his eyes in reverence.
He continued, I can currently sense about sixty Tier 3 Powerhouses, many of whom are also keeping a low profile with their strengthpletely hidden. As for the auras of Tier 4 Powerhouses, Ive found three for now.
Taylor, a tall and burly man, hesitated for a moment before continuing, My Lord, the auras of these powerful characters are mainly concentrated in the south and east of the city. From this, we can deduce that these two directions are where the auction is held and the air harbor of this city.
My Lord, Senior Taylor has analyzed it correctly.
On the other side, Linda approached Leo Ray and added in a low voice, Compared to Cyan Town, which is just a corner of the world, Viennas City is one of the important ind cities of Coldme, with better infrastructure. The eastern part of the city has an air harbor that can almost rival the ones in the big cities of Coldme. It can be used for refueling and takeoff of Flying Airships.
As for the southern part of the city, it is the core business district, and also the location of this auction, the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference.
I see, an air harbor, huh? The speed of Flying Airships is undoubtedly much faster than that of carriages, which can further promote the citys economic development. When the time is right, Ill build one in Cyan Town as well, Leo Ray said thoughtfully, pausing for a moment in front of a shop selling tea sets.
By the way, My Lord, only those with invitations are allowed to attend the auction in Viennas City, and I happen to know one of the internal managers of the Sanders Trading Conference here. Therefore, please wait for a moment, My Lord, I will try to get an invitation and confirm the auctions details as well.
Go ahead, contact me with Mind Talk if theres anything. Well just wander around here.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and gestured with his hand.
As Linda left to get the invitation, Leo Ray decided to pass the time by giving each remaining subordinate arge pouch of Gold Dragons, and they began a shopping spree.
They bought whatever they wanted, whether it was branded bags or branded clothes, and all kinds of luxury items were purchased.
It should be noted that in this world, ten thousand Gold Dragons can buy a multi-story luxurious sea view vi, let alone the more than two million Gold Dragons that Leo Ray had on his person.
Of course, during this process, Leo Ray also bought some souvenirs for Serena and Ste, Joshua Bingaman, Orion Wolfe, Belinda Wright, and Gideon ck, who were not present.
And since he was toozy to pick, most of the time, he simply threw money at the entire counter or the whole shop, leaving the onlookers dumbfounded.Even those haughty and arrogant nobledies and young men and women, who looked down on others, had astonished looks on their faces and couldnt help but praise.
However, because of this auction, it had attracted some top-tier nobles with high status.
Thus, everyone automatically categorized Leo Ray as one of them, and many cast their respectful gazes upon him.
As for this scene, Leo Ray himself didnt really care.
The Illusion Cloaks everyone was wearing could change their appearance at any time, while therge amount of purchased items was directly thrown into the storage bracelet, so naturally there wouldnt be any issues.
A momentter, just as Leo Ray and his group were preparing to pay and leave in a luxuriously decoratedrge clothing store.
There was suddenly a disturbance at the entrance of the shop.
Immediately, a red-clothed woman in her early twenties appeared C furious and leading a group of people into the shop.
This slender red-clothed woman had quite a delicate appearance.
The slightly tight red outfit perfectly outlined her curvaceous figure, and her whole body exuded a youthful energy.
However, her fair face clearly revealed a violent temperament, and she shoved the surrounding customers aside while walking straight to the shop owner without any regard.
Lord Mongoose has dared to stand me up; it seems like you dont want to continue doing business in Viennas City!
With a crisp and irritable voice, the red-clothed woman directly grabbed the cor of the other party, easily lifting the two hundred-pound fat middle-aged man into the air.
At the same time, dozens of other customers in the store began to discuss amongst themselves.
It turns out shes Miss Kelsey from the Sanders Family. It looks like this store is in trouble.
Kelsey? Is that the infamous willful girl from Viennas City? Hmph, if it werent for the protection of the Sanders Family, I wouldve taught her a lesson a long time ago!
Listen, Mr. Knight, at your age, dont try to show off. Besides, Miss Kelsey has reached Tier 3 Powerhousest year.
With your strength, Im afraid youre only a Tier 2 Senior Powerhouse; its not enough to even be her warm up.
Yeah, yeah, Miss Kelsey is famously irrational in Viennas City, even hurting herself when she gets mad. Whoever gets targeted by her will surely suffer a lot!
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a look of interest and continued observing.
No wonder, with her skinny frame of eighty or ny pounds, she could easily lift a burly middle-aged man. Judging from her aura,
this irritable red-clothed woman had indeed reached the level of a Tier 3 Powerhouse.
Her strength is probably around Tier 3 Two-Star level, and looking at the attire of her other followers, it seems like theyre indeed in the Sanders
Trading Conference guard outfit. I wonder if this person belongs to the Sanders Family main branch or side branch?
At this moment, such thoughts leisurely crossed Leo Rays mind. What are you looking at? Everyone else, get out of my sight!
On the other side, no matter how much the shop owner pleaded, the red-clothed woman called Miss Kelsey remained relentless and began to order her subordinates to forcefully drive the customers out of the store.
Just when everyone was shaking their heads helplessly, putting down their chosen items, and preparing to leave, a calm voice suddenly sounded: Boss, lets pay the bill..
Chapter 287 - 287: Miss Kaili_l
Chapter 287: Miss Kaili_l
Trantor: 549690339
Hearing that sudden voice, everyone in the shop was taken aback, and then they all turned their heads together, looking towards the direction the voice came from.
Standing nonchntly at the focal point was an upright young man, who was none other than Leo Ray.
Seeing this, those guests who were about to leave stopped in their tracks, and the whispers began once more.
Did I hear wrong? Someone dares to challenge Miss Kelsey on the streets of Viennas City? Just to let you know, thest person who did this is still lying in the hospital!
Exactly. Miss Kelsey is from the Roval Sanders Family Even the City Lord.
who holds the title of Earl, has to give her some respect! This guy ispletely ignorant!
Thats right, most importantly, Miss Kelseys father is a well-known Tier 4 Powerhouse in the kingdom. Like father, like daughter! I bet this guy will be carried away again.
Sigh, hes clearly from out of town. Im afraid blood will be shed on the spot.
Regardless, good job, young man! I verbally support you! Ill definitely help you find a good healer afterwards!
Mom, that uncle is so brave! So many people are afraid of Big sister, but hes not! Could he be scared out of his wits?
On the other hand, seeing someone daring to challenge her authority in public, Kelsey, dressed in red, couldnt help but twitch her eyebrows. The malicious aura on her face grew more intense.
First, she released the almost suffocated shopkeeper, whose face turned red, and then walked gracefully to Leo Rays face.
Were you the one talking just now?
Kelsey, her pretty face full of anger, looked up and down at Leo Ray.
Her slender body suddenly burst forth with an impressive aura, threateningly saying, Didnt you hear me? You can still walk away now!
Hearing this, Leo Ray gave a light smile, motioning Taylor and the others around him to not worry.
Then, he retorted, What does your order for the others to leave have to do with me? Im not one of those others.
Youre looking for death!
At these words, Kelseys aura grew even more powerful. Without further talk, she threw a punch straight at Leo Rays face!
Seeing this, the onlookers who could feel Kelseys strong aura, couldnt help but look away in horror.
As expected of a youngdy, shes ruthless and to the point.
At this moment, a few local individuals who were familiar with Kelseys history of wreaking havoc looked on with fearful expressions.
Thest time Miss Kelsey swung her fist like this, she gave a young male noble at the Tier 2 peak a concussion!
The trading conference guards that came with Kelsey, however, were all wearing amused expressions, ready to enjoy the show.
Daring to challenge the authority of Miss Kelsey, this reckless fellow was bound to suffer a great loss.
Undoubtedly, at this moment, everyone unanimously believed.
The young man from out of town was beyond salvation.
However, what happened next shocked everyone present, leaving them all with wide-eyed, astonished expressions.
Apanied by a gust of wind, in the blink of an eye, as Kelsey swung her fist, Leo Ray was already prepared.
A sh of milky white energy brilliance emanated from his dark eyes.
His spiritual and perceptive power fully activated, his nerve response speed reached an extraordinary level.
The next second, Kelsey was astonished to find that, despite her lightning-speed strike, shended directly on the face of the young man in front of her.However, there was no feeling of hitting anything, as if she had thrown a punch at the air.
The young man in front of her seemed like an illusion in the water, disappearing in an instant before her eyes.
What just happened?
At this moment, due to the missed punch, Kelsey, with her body leaning forward and eyshes fluttering, showed an uncontroble look of confusion on her pretty and fierce face.
At the same time, taking advantage of the gap when Leo Ray used the Mirage
Illusion Skill to confuse Kelsey.
He seized the opportunity, as Kelsey was off bnce.
His real body emerged from the air beside her, decisively grabbing her wrist and pinning her arm,pletely immobilizing her on the spot.
Since all these events happened in the blink of an eye.
By the time everyone reacted, the previously aggressive Kelsey had already been easily subdued by Leo Ray and couldnt move at all.
Undoubtedly, Leo Rays current strength had already reached the Tier 3, 5-star level, while Kelsey was only at Tier 3, 2-star.
Moreover, Leo Ray had recently been practicing various martial skills with Taylor, having received Tier 5 Powerhouses unreserved guidance, he naturally progressed rapidly.
Therefore, in an unexpected situation, although Leo Rays actualbat experience was rtivelycking, once he controlled his opponent, the only thing left was the suppression of levels.
On the other side, after being stunned for a moment, dozens of guests in the room couldnt help but exim in amazement.
A pair of unbelieving eyes once again focused on Leo Ray.
They never thought that the seemingly indifferent young man not far away would be even more powerful!
If he could control Kelsey, a Tier 3 Powerhouse, it meant that the low-key young mans rank was naturally higher than hers!
Meanwhile, the trading conference guards mocking smiles froze instantly, involuntarily swallowing their saliva, showing a shocked expression.
Goodd, if my old eyes arent mistaken, this young mans strength has already reached Tier 3, 5-star, and he is a Tier 3 Senior Powerhouse!
Such a young Tier 3 Senior Powerhouse! You know, Miss Kelsey only achieved the Tier 3 level so quickly by relying on the huge resources of the Sanders family!
Mommy, how did the handsome brother just now disappear and reappear? Its so magical!
It seems that Miss Kelsey has hit a wall this time. Such a young Tier 3 Senior Powerhouse must have an extraordinary background!
Extraordinary background? No wonder even Miss Kelsey doesnt care about him. There are always people beyond people and skies beyond skies
You bastard! Let go of me! Do you know who I am?
At the same time, after struggling several times in vain, Kelseys pretty face was filled with a mix of shame and anger.
She yelled at the still-shocked trading conference guards, What are you waiting for? Hurry up and help me get rid of this bastard!
However, before the Tier 2 guards of the trading conference could react, the formidable Mason Banks, Abigail, and Amelia blocked Leo Ray, causing the guards not only to hesitate but to back away.
Seeing no hope of rescue, Kelsey, unable to budge, gritted her teeth and continued to threaten Leo Ray, Bastard! Im from the Sanders family! Im warning you, dont make an enemy that you cant afford to offend!
Hearing this, Leo Ray was taken aback but thenughed lightly. He still didnt speak, but instead increased the strength of his grip.
He didnt even care about the Coldme Princess, let alone the subordinate
Sanders family?

On the other side, seeing that her threat had no effect and seemed to further provoke the opponent, Kelsey, who felt like her wrist was about to break, looked shocked and incredulous.
Without a doubt, this was the first time in her life she had encountered someone who dared to treat the Sanders family with such contempt!
While feeling both angry and annoyed, she, deep down, began to harbor some intentions to back down.
However, she still appeared high and mighty, furrowing her brows while asking, Damn it, what do you want to do?
Very simple. Apologize to everyone here and leave with your people. Leo Ray spoke casually, smiling coolly.
At the moment, everyone on their side was wearing Illusion Cloaks, able to change their appearance at any time, with no concerns for being identified afterward.
Hearing this, the onlookers couldnt help but cast their respectful gazes towards Leo Ray, especially locals, who were even more respectful.
It must be known that in the whole Viennas City, there were very few who could handle this unruly and spicydy.
Youre dreaming! Dont think that with a few Tier 3 Powerhouses, you can run rampant in this city. My father and the Sanders family will never let you go!
Kelsey, feeling humiliated, snorted coldly and stubbornly continued.
Then pay for your recklessness,
Upon hearing this, Leo Rays face turned cold, and he increased his grip.
Just as Kelseys arm reached its endurance limit, a familiar, delicate figure suddenly burst through the door.
Much to their surprise, it was Linda, who had left just a short time earlier.
My Lord, please forgive my intrusion. This reckless woman in red is the friend I was looking for!
Immediately after, Lindas faint voice conveyed through their mind talk.
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow.
It seemed that Linda had returned after an unsessful visit to Sanders Trading Conference.
Forget it. Since we still need them to do things for us, its better to keep them unscathed. Itll be more convenient.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly, and the pressure on Kelseys wrist gradually eased.
Linda, howe its you?
When Kelsey saw Linda, who had just removed her Illusion Cloak, her pretty face was suddenly filled with surprise and joy, she promptly said, Thats great! Please help me!
Linda, who had just approached, attached a stern expression, whispered into Kelseys ear: Admit your mistake immediately. Youre provoking someone you cant afford to offend. Otherwise, even if it means abandoning you, I wont make any concessions!
A big shot?
Seeing the serious expression and cold words that Linda had never shown before, Kelsey was taken aback, and her aggression instantly dissipated, her momentum withering away.
Since childhood, Linda, who had a slight blood rtionship with Kelsey, had been like a biological sister to her. Every time they met, she was very protective and caring of Kelsey, even getting into conflicts with the direct line of the family for her.
From this, it can be seen how much of an impact Lindas cold expression had on Kelseys heart. After all, Linda was her closest sister.
Noticing this, Leo Ray shrugged his shoulders, without further confronting Kelsey, and released the hand gripping her arm.
I apologize for my my rudeness earlier. Please forgive me, Your Excellency,
Due to Lindas appearance, Kelsey reluctantly lowered her body symbolically, apologizing to Leo Ray unwillingly.
Seeing the scene, the shopkeeper, arge group of customers, and traders guards all had astonished and disbelieving expressions.
Well, well, the famously willful youngdy of Viennas City had actually admitted her mistake voluntarily?lts like a child walking a giant dragon as a pet on the street, quite a peculiar sight!
From this, one could see how mysterious this calm andposed young man is!
On the other side, looking at Kelsey bowing in front of him, Leo Ray couldnt help but raise his eyebrow slightly.
It seems that Linda holds a high position in the other partys heart, otherwise, they wouldnt easily yield to him.
Lord, this is not a ce to stay for long, lets find another ce to talk. Linda then bowed respectfully to Leo Ray and whispered.
And so, in front of a crowd of onlookers with incredulous expressions, Leo Ray nonchntly dropped a bag of Gold Dragons.
Then he waved his hand, put the piles of gorgeous clothes into a bag, and left with his subordinates.
My Lord, allow me to reintroduce, this is Kelsey Sanders, the daughter of the Master of Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference. The incident earlier was due to my negligence, and I left without permission. Please do not me her!
A momentter, in a quiet and luxurious private room, Linda again performed a standard knights courtesy and respectfully bowed to Leo Ray.
No worries.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a thoughtful expression. It seems that this red-dressed woman named Kelsey is one of the important figures of the Sanders family in Viennas City.
No wonder she canpete with the Sanders familys main branch in the city. From her fiery and aggressive performance just now, one can glimpse her power.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray couldnt help but shake his head helplessly.
ording to the original n, this branch of the Sanders family would naturally be the target he needed to win over.
However, even though Linda has a good rtionship with her, its not enough to truly gain her support. We still need to further contact her father, who holds power.
The best way to do so is to try to squeeze out the rival branch of the Sanders family from Viennas City.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,
on the other side, Kelseys pretty face was full of confusion, and she asked Linda doubtfully, Sister Linda, who exactly is this person? Why are you so respectful to him?
Kelsey, when the time is right, youll know everything.
Following Leo Rays previous instructions, Linda naturally wouldnt reveal his true identity, but just smiled faintly.
Then, Lindas heroic face became serious again and said, In short, the tremendous power behind this Lord is beyond your imagination, and hespletely on the side of our side family members.
Since sister Linda says so, Ill trust you for now.
ncing at Leo Ray with some hesitation, Kelseys exquisite face showed a hint of doubt as she responded perfunctorily.
From her tone, it was clear that she was still holding a grudge about the incident earlier.
Alright, Kelsey, lets talk about the main issue.
Then, Linda briefly described their intention to participate in the auction to Kelsey.
Since sister Linda is asking, an invitation will naturally not be a problem. However, this times Viennas City Auction requires participants to bring at least 500,000 Gold Dragons and be verified before entering the venue. This is not a small amount.
Even ordinary noble families and wealthy merchants cant afford toe up with so much cash at once.
At this point, Kelsey looked at Leo Ray with some pride and asked provocatively, I wonder if this so-called great person, Your Excellency, meets the requirements?
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled slightly and waved his hand.
The spacious luxury room was immediately filled with heavy boxes of gold coins, instantly bing a dazzling sight..
Chapter 289 - 289: The Lord and the Young Lady_l
Chapter 289: The Lord and the Young Lady_l
Trantor: 549690339
Looking at the sudden appearance of arge amount of gold coins in front of her, Kelsey couldnt help but be stunned. Having grown up in Sanders Trading Conference, she could naturally tell at a nce the approximate quantity of Gold Dragons in the room.
There must be at least two million
As she thought of this, shocked, Kelseys slender eyshes fluttered and she couldnt help but swallow her saliva.
Without a doubt, this kind of cash reserve far exceeded the range of ordinary nobles and wealthy merchants.
How about that? Is this enough?
With a faint smile, Leo Ray waved his hand again, and therge luxurious room was immediately restored to its previous state.
Thats enough, Your Excellency, you really are very wealthy.
On the other hand, Kelsey replied sarcastically, secretly thinking: Hmph, whats so great about that? There are many rich people here this time, the real nobles are measured by their family heritage!
For instance, Tier 3 and above equipment and Magic Medicine are not something that can easily be bought with just money!
Im afraid this so-called important person hasnt even seen what these precious items look like, right?
In the end, hes nothing more than a talented country bumpkin just wanting to see a big scene.
Thinking of this, Kelseys pretty face couldnt help but show a touch of smug satisfaction.
She then continued, Anyway, since the requirement has been met, the invitation is naturally no problem. Once we return to the trading conference, I will arrange it.
Thank you.
Upon hearing this, Linda nodded slightly and frowned, Kelsey, the auction is starting this afternoon, what are you messing around in town for at this time?
Linda doesnt know.
On the other side, Kelseys delicate face revealed a touch of sadness as she exined, Because of this auction, our Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference is one of the organizers.
As a result, in addition to the already-confirmed precious auction items, we need to prepare some ordinary auction items to warm up the atmosphere. The direct members of our family have started ying their tricks with this. Next, through Kelseys description, Leo Ray learned.
It turned out that the direct members of the citys Sanders family, in order to push Kelseys father out of the position of conference president, deliberately held apetition within the trading conference.
They used the number of collected auction items to determine the selection of the next Viennas City president, and through some means, obtained the approval of the current Sanders family head, Grand Duke Harrison.
Originally, Lord Mongoose, the owner of the clothing store, had nned to entrust a Tier 2 top-quality Magic Medicine, as an auction item, to our branch family.
But in the end, he turned his back at thest minute, secretly handing it over to those direct members! To think that Lord Mongoose had once received my fathers kindness, and yet he proved to be so ungrateful!
As she spoke, an emotionally agitated Kelsey, who was sitting on a luxurious sofa, went so far as to grip the wooden armrest next to her, leaving a deep indentation.
Amidst the splinters flying, she continued, Whats most crucial is that in the beginning, after our efforts, we had nearly equal numbers of collected auction items with those direct members.
However, today my father and I discovered that those despicable people had been secretly doing a series of actions, using both threats and incentives.
They pried away a portion of the auction items to their side. With this, the number we in the branch family collected is now much less than the direct members
Kelsey, are you saying that your fathers position as president might be in danger?
Hearing this, Lindas face disyed a worried expression, and then she looked at Leo Ray who was leisurely drinking tea nearby.
On the other side, Leo Ray put down the delicate teacup in his hand, and then asked, What are the requirements for an item to be an auction item?
At least it has to be a Tier 1 Magic Medicine or a Tier 2 equipment crafted by a master.
With a sigh, Kelsey responded, These items are extremely precious, ordinary civilians might not see one in their whole lives, theyre not something that can easily be taken out. Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
Well, he had been worrying about not having the chance to drive the direct descendants out of Viennas City, but now, they had taken the initiative toe to him.
Take me to your Sanders Trading Conference. I might be able to turn the tide in your favor.
After taking another sip of the steaming aromatic tea, Leo Ray spoke nonchntly.
Your Excellency, youd better not get involved and make things worse.
Kelsey curled her lips and continued, The number of auction items we are behind the direct descendants is not just a few, but dozens!
Unless they are backed by the powerful and profound nobles in the nearby area, it is impossible for anyone to have that kind of strength.
Kelsey, like I said before, this gentlemans power is far beyond your imagination. Just lead the way.
Hearing this, Lindas eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Linda, I know this man must be a big customer of your Cyan Town branch.
However, that ce is too remote
Having said that, Kelsey shook her head helplessly and continued to address Leo Ray, Fine, lets go. But I must make it clear in advance,
the direct descendants of our family are much more ruthless than me, and all of them are cunning and deceitful characters.
BV then, if things 20 wrong, dont me me for not warning you, Your
Excellency.
Thus, under Kelseys guidance, it didnt take long for Leo Ray and hispanions to pass through several bustling streets and arrive at the entrance of the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference.
The Trading Conference was located in the most prosperous golden area of the southern part of the city, with a facade at least three timesrger than that of the Cyan Town Trading Conference.
Under the dazzling sunlight, the five ancient, light golden characters of Sanders Trading Conference shone brilliantly. Beside it, the Golden Deer Emblem appeared lifelike and imposing.
Greetings to Miss Kelsey!
Upon seeing Kelseys figure, a team of trading conference guards on the left side immediately bowed and opened the door for the group.
The right side, however, seemed as if they hadnt seen anything, actingpletely indifferent.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips, secretly thinking, Well, they really do split the citys direct descendant forces evenly, with half and half for guards as well?
Next, under the guidance of Linda, Leo Ray and hispanions walked directly into the gate of the Sanders Trading Conference.
During this process, since the Illusion Cloaks were only effective for Tier 3 Powerhouses.
Therefore, to avoid idents, Leo Ray left the werewolf tribe girl, Bianca White, and Scarlett outside.
In this way, if an emergency arises, the two can also serve as a trump card.
Upon entering thevish and magnificent hall, Leo Ray noticed.
At this moment, the bustling hall was filled with crowds, and the noise level was high.
It was also divided into two almost identical business areas.
However, it was evident that the side that saluted Kelsey was noticeably less crowdedpared to the other side.
Most people either held an exquisite brocade box or a sharp weapon, apparently registering for auction items.
Oh, isnt that our Miss Kelsey?
Just as Leo Ray observed this, a mocking voice rang out.
A young male noble with a handsome yet somewhat pale face, apanied by a group of followers, swaggered over from the opposite office area..

So, its Young Master Clyde Thompson.
Looking at the mocking expression on the other partys face, it was obvious that they meant no good. Kelsey snorted and retorted without showing weakness, Im sorry, its just that your presence is so low-key.
Among so many people, I havent noticed you for a while now.
Hehe, youre a witty one, lets see how long you can keep jumping around in front of this young master.
Seeing Kelseys tit-for-tat response, the young nobleman named Clyde didnt get angry. Instead, he unabashedly ogled Kelseys curvy figure with a sleazy look, and mocked, Once my father takes control of this division, you and your former chairman father can get out of Viennas City together.
By then, all you low-ranking side branch members wont have another chance to turn the tables within the family. Its so exciting to think about.
You despicable bastard! Its all because you main-branch members have done some disgraceful things behind the scenes!
Hearing his words, Kelsey clenched her fists and angrily said, Youre winning without honor!
All were doing is helping those who still have illusions about you to see the reality.
With a disdainful smirk, thescivious expression on Clydes pale face grew more pronounced as he continued, Hehe, but of course, if you can do something to satisfy this young master, perhaps Ill show mercy and still allow your family to stay in Viennas City.
You jerk! Just stop dreaming!
On the other side, Kelseys face darkened, and her phoenix eyes, somewhat simr to Scarletts, red at him while revealing a hint of helplessness.
There was no doubt that he was a main-branch member of the family, with a higher status than her, a side-branch member.
Before this, she could only stand up to him because her father was the chairman.
But if their scheme seeds, the entire Viennas City would truly have no ce in the family for these side-branch members.
Thinking about this, Kelsey clenched her fingers until they turned white, her body trembling slightly with anger.
At the same time, seeing this scene, Leo Ray revealed a thoughtful expression on his face.
Originally, ording to the n, he was going to drive out this main branch from Viennas City first, gain the support of the side branches,y the foundation, and make it easier for Linda to ascend to the position of family head.
If he could control the Sanders family, a powerful and influential noble family within the kingdom, it would be equivalent to grasping the throat of the Coldme Royal Family.
However, looking at the current situation, as long as he helped Kelseys father reim the chairmans position, then it would be easy to achieve his goal of gaining their support.
I must say, this so-called auction item collectionpetition is tailor-made for me.
In doing so, he could both weaken the power of the main branch and win the support of the side branches C it couldnt be more perfect.
These main-branch members of the Sanders family probably never dreamed that their carefully designed n would make him the biggest winner. Just as Leo Ray was somewhat amused, thinking about this,
on the other side, the young nobleman named Clyde, full of pride, shifted his attention to Leo Rays group.
At present, since Leo Ray and the others were wearing Illusion Cloaks and dressed like ordinary civilians, naturally, someone of Kelseys strength couldnt see through them.
Yo, Miss Kelsey, where did you find these shabby fellows? Are you already nning for your new life after leaving the family? Or do you think the Sanders family is a charity?
Seeing the in civilian clothes on Leo Ray, Clyde, dressed in high-ss noble attire, sneered and continued ridiculing them.
Immediately after, the entourage behind him also burst intoughter.
Hehe, it seems our domineering Miss Kelsey wont be able to act so arrogantly in the future.
Yeah, yeah. She actually brought in so many vigers from remote areas into our Sanders Trading Conference in Viennas City. Are they going to auction off
their ancestral farming tools( Its so ridiculous, hahana.
By the way, who here has some Copper Dragons? If we dont give some to them, Id feel bad. Tsk, tsk, its been a long time since Ive seen such a rustic bunch.
Could it be that Miss Kelsey ns to be like those Otherworldly Lords who descended, leading the farmers to cultivate thend and waiting for us to harvest the wealth?
If thats the case, lets fatten them up first, hahaha.
As these main-branch entourage members followed Clydes lead in mocking and ridiculing, thevishly decorated hall was filled with more and more onlookers.
Among them, a small part of the side-branch members shook their heads in sighs, their faces helpless.
Most of the main-branch members, however, wore the look of reveling in their misfortune. Some even joined in the scoffing, pointing at Leo Ray and the others in their simple attire.
Just stopughing!
Seeing this, anger was apparent on Kelseys beautiful face, as she resolutely pulled Leo Ray a step forward. With an embarrassed tone, she said, Clyde, dont underestimate this gentleman.
Hes someone you absolutely should not provoke!
As soon as Kelsey said this, the noisy hall fell silent.
For a moment, everyone present wore astonished expressions and froze.
However, shortly after, bursts ofughter erupted from the dense crowd, as if Kelsey had just told a huge joke.
At the same time, a slew of disdainful nces fell upon Leo Ray and hispanions.
Lord, these people are too insolent. Should we teach them a lesson? Seeing this, Taylor frowned and whispered in Leo Rays ear.
At the same time, Linda, Mason Banks, Abigail, and Amelia all looked angry.
In the end, they are nothing but snobs.
Hearing this, Leo Ray calmly smiled and said, Just watch, I believe it wont take long for most of the people here to fall at our feet.
Not far away, Clyde clutched his stomach andughed wildly, Did I hear wrong just now? Our Miss Kelsey actually called a peasant a big shot? Its enough to make you lose your teethughing!
Having said that, a disdainful Clyde swaggered with his entourage and came in front of Leo Ray, tauntingly saying, So, big shot, are you the savior Kelsey brought?
I wouldnt dare to im the title of savior, but I can at least open the eyes of a bunch of pathetic frogs at the bottom of a well.
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled and slowly walked to the center of the venue..
Chapter 291 - 291: The Astonished Frogs at the Bottom of the Well 1
Chapter 291: The Astonished Frogs at the Bottom of the Well 1
Trantor: 549690339
Hearing this, thecent Clyde Thompson couldnt help but freeze, and a cold expression appeared on his face.
He then said solemnly, Kid, this is Sanders Trading Conference, protected by the Sanders family. It is not a ce for people like you to act recklessly. Bragging in front of me will cost you blood!
Oh?
Hearing this, Leo Ray looked directly into the opponents brown eyes filled with maliciousness and calmly said, If I have not spoken too highly of myself and need to pay the price in blood, then it should be you whos going to pay, right?
Ridiculous! Lets see if youre even capable of it!
After speaking, the murderous intent on Clydes face grew thicker as he continued coldly, If you cant do it, dont me me for being ruthless.
Kelsey, check how many auction items both we and the other party have collected, and how big the gap is. Include everyone present in the count.
On the opposite side, Leo Ray naturally wouldnt waste more words with this young noble in front of him and immediately spoke to the red-clothed woman beside him.
Alright, okay.
On the other side, Kelsey subconsciously nodded, immediately taking a team of guards and began to act ording to Leo Rays instructions.
Kid, you have quite the big mouth. Seems like youre ready to be dealt with by me.
Listenting to Leo Rays calm tone, although Clyde still appeared tough on the surface, he couldnt help but feel a bit doubtful and uneasy inside.
From the words and actions of the young man before him,
it was evident that he had not taken Clyde, a noble of high status, seriously, let alone the fact that he was a direct member of the Sanders family. Could it be that the other party is also a well-hidden noble? At this moment, Clydes brown eyes swirled as he quickly dismissed this answer.
No, its impossible. Our family has good private rtions with all the influential nobles in the surrounding cities. The core members of each family are also very familiar with each other, but theres no trace of this unfamiliar guy.
Realizing this, Clydes doubtful mood eased a bit as he continued to ponder, Moreover, if the other party really had some background,
they wouldnt recklessly oppose the direct line of the powerful Sanders family and instead help the weaker branch members. This just doesnt make sense.
The other party couldnt possibly have the strength and capital to contend with the entire Sanders family, right?
Upon thinking this, Clyde immediately eliminated this absurd idea from his mind and couldnt help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Leaving aside the low-status branch members, the Sanders familys direct line alone,
including the Grand Duke Harrison Shelton, had several Tier 4 Powerhouses and dozens of Tier 3 Powerhouses.
As for their family fief Lionheart City, there were even tens of thousands of soldiers stationed there.
With this kind of power, unless it was the Coldme Royal Family or the noble families of other kingdoms, it certainly wasnt something other forces could surpass.
While Clyde was silently contemting, the other onlookers also couldnt help but exchange nces.
Leo Rays indifferent actions also gave them an incredible idea:
That is, the sudden appearance of the young man nearby was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface!
At a time when many people in the audience were experiencing waves of emotions within,
Kelsey, whose eyebrows were knitted together, had already finished counting with the help of the guards and spoke to Leo Ray dejectedly, There are 59 in total, which means, we have to present 60 items in order to surpass them. Heh, so the gap is already this big.
Hearing the number from Kelseys mouth, the slightly pale expression on Clydes face immediately returned to its previous arrogance, acting as if he had already won.
Undoubtedly, such a quantity would not be easily achievable even for thoserge noble families they were familiar with in the surrounding cities.
With this thought, Clyde snorted disdainfully and sneered at Leo Ray, What now, kid? Can you really produce 60 Tier 1 Magic Medicines or Tier 2 Exquisite Equipment on the spot?
Unfortunately, I really cant.
On the other side, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly, looking troubled.
Haha, as I thought, youre just bluffing!
Hearing this, the smile on Clydes face became thicker.
Immediately after, he addressed the onlooking crowd, Everyone, you heard it, right? In the end, this kid is nothing more than a clown trying to gain attention that Kelsey found!
For a moment, arge number of mocking and ridiculing voices echoed throughout the luxurious hall.
I knew it! How could someone with such great power just appear so easily in front of us!
Exactly, I really thought we had met a big figure at first. Turns out it was just a bluff!
So many expensive items cant just be pulled out of thin air! My familys three generations of knights only managed to pass down a single Tier 2 Knight Sword!
My ancestor was a Tier 1 Alchemist, and he only left behind two precious Tier 1 Magic Medicines!
Sigh, Im afraid this young man is really going to suffer now. Why would he provoke Clyde of all people?
It seems that the Sanders familys branch is really going to decline, tsk tsk.
Among them, especially those followers behind Clyde, all looked extremely pleased with themselves.
While mocking their opponents, they also took the opportunity to tter Clyde. Can we stop embarrassing ourselves here?
Seeing this scene, Kelseys pretty face was a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance as she whispered softly, I told you to listen, but you wouldnt. Now isnt this just asking for trouble
However, Kelseys words were left unfinished.
On the other side, Leo Ray still maintained his calm demeanor.
As he paced toward the registration counter nearby, he smiled indifferently, Everyone, what I meant was that the exquisite items mentioned by the young master here are just too low-level.
The next second, before the people in the audience could even react to what Leo Ray had said, he gave a casual wave of his hand.
In an instant, a huge pile of equipment sparkling with various colors and numerous dense Magic Medicines filled the entire counter.
Witnessing this unbelievable scene, therge and luxurious hall fell silent, with the previous mocking and ridiculing sounds dying down.
As for those direct followers who had been cheering the loudest earlier and Clyde, dressed in luxurious clothes,
they all looked like choking orioles with red faces, their lingering. A trace of arrogance immediately turned into unbearable shock, almost suffocating..

Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, looking at the dazzling weapons and armor on the counter, as well as the fragrant magic potions, apart from the stunned Clyde Thompson and others, and therge number of onlookers around.
The most surprised person was naturally Kelsey, who had almost given up hope.
Beneath her slender, fluttering eyshes, she stared at Leo Ray, who stood by her side with his hands behind his back, and her heart surged like a tsunami.
Without a doubt, Kelsey never expected that this seemingly indifferent young man would have such a tremendous power hidden behind him!
It is worth mentioning that such a deep foundation is undoubtedly rare even among the numerous aristocrats present this time!
I didnt expect that the person Linda brought would turn out to be such an unassuming big shot
Realizing this and remembering her sarcastic mockery before, Kelsey couldnt help but lower her eyebrows. Her delicate face showed a touch of embarrassment inparison.
After being attacked by her unreasonable aggression, the indifferent young man in front of her still stood up for their Sanders Familys coteral branch.
Such tolerance made her feel a bit ashamed.
Most importantly, with the help of this influential person, the conspiracy schemes of the direct descendants would be thwarted!
With this in mind, Kelseys eyes looking at Leo Ray filled with unconcealed reverence.
Such a young man, possessing both strength and background without the slightest hint of arrogance, was undoubtedly rarely seen in her life.
As Kelseys emotions were flooding over her.
Meanwhile, at the other side, the coteral appraisers responsible for verification, trembled as they finished counting the equipment and magic medicine on the table.
An elderly man with gray hair took a deep breath.
Then, with his body trembling, he announced loudly, The items this gentleman provides for auction are 30 top-quality Tier 3 Equipment and 30 top-quality Tier 2 Magic Drugs!
This sentence set off a thousand waves.
Immediately, therge hall was filled with continuous cheers and admiration.
He casually brought out 30 pieces of Tier 3 equipment and 30 Tier 2 magic potions C is this influential person the child of some powerful aristocratic family?
Youre right, and every single one of them is the best of the best. An ordinary aristocrat wouldnt be able to casually bring out suchvish items; this gentleman is truly extravagant!
Exactly, these precious items symbolize wealth and status! They are a symbol of nobility, and not something money can buy!
I told you guys earlier that this influential young man is no ordinary person, but you didnt believe me!
Stop talking nonsense, it was obviously me who said it! Look at this handsome and dashing gentleman, how low-key, luxurious, and cultured he is. This is the true aristocratic family!
It seems that Miss Kelsey has found herself a powerful backer.
As Leo Ray had expected.
Among the amazed crowd, the loudest group was the one that had just ridiculed them. This huge shift in attitude was quite absurd.
Meanwhile, many ordinary businessmen and low-level nobles in the direct descendants business area had begun to quietly move their feet towards the area of Kelseys coteral branch.
Noticing this scene, Leo Ray couldnt help but shake his head in resignation, not caring about their actions.
Anyway, one of the reasons Leo Ray acted so ostentatiously was to achieve his goal, win the support of the Sanders Familys coteral branch, andy the groundwork for the future.
On the other hand, it was to sell some of his hidden magic potions, collect more funds for the uing auction, and be prepared for any contingency.
Specifically, there were ten each of Ice Returning Pills, Recovery Magic Pills, and Wind Eye Pills.
Even after taking out these items, Leo Ray still had about 200 of each left in his Space Bracelet, which was still very abundant.
As for the 30 pieces of Tier 3 Equipment, they were just the tip of the iceberg among the vast number of unused equipment he owned.
As Leo Ray thought about this.
On the other side, Clyde Thompson and the surrounding direct descendants also gradually recovered from their shock.
Listening to the surrounding peoples endless praise, especially Clyde Thompson himself, his eyes looking at Leo Ray showed a hint of resentment and unwillingness.
Without a doubt, if it were not for the appearance of the calm-faced young man before him, the throne of the next Viennas City Trading Conference President would undoubtedly fall to his father!
Now, all the schemes they had carefully nned were in vain.
Damn it, dont let me catch an opportunity, or Ill make sure youd rather be dead than alive!
At this moment, Clyde Thompsons muddy brown eyes turned slyly, his fists slowly unclenched, and his face returned to its calm state.
From the current situation, the formidable power disyed by the young man in front of him was extremely extraordinary, even surpassing most of the aristocrats they had known.
Moreover, Kelsey, as a coteral side, was also present. Therefore, the cunning Clyde Thompson wouldnt choose to explode on the spot.
Where on earth did Kelsey find such a backer? In any case, lets find out who he is first.
With that in mind, Clyde Thompson regained hisposure, stepped forward, and forced a smile, Your Excellency, I apologize for my shortsightedness earlier. May I ask your name and where your familys territory is located?
Across from him, Leo Ray had been keeping an eye on Clyde Thompsons expressions and movements.
And from his tone of voice, it was clear that he was trying to figure out his background.
Leo Ray wasnt worried about that in the slightest.
Ever since they entered the city, their group had undergone numerous illusion disguises.
There had been no incidents of their illusions being broken along their journey, so naturally, they wouldnt leave any loopholes for their enemies.
On the other side, before Leo Ray could speak, Kelsey stepped in, putting her hands on her hips and snorting, Clyde, thats none of your business!
After saying that, she took Leo Ray by the arm and started walking towards the depths of the hall.
Forget it, its not suitable to have a further conflict with Clyde Thompson now, with so many people around. If he continues to look for trouble, just find a secluded ce and get rid of him.
As Leo Ray thought this, his gaze fell once more on Kelseys figure, revealing a thoughtful expression..
Chapter 293 - 293: Kelsey’s Loyalty
Chapter 293: Kelseys Loyalty
Trantor: 549690339
Without a doubt, at this moment, Leo Ray is thinking about it.
Naturally, he wants to turn the daughter of the Master of Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, into his direct subordinate.
From the current situation.
Kelseys father, as the president, is a Tier 4 Powerhouse, and he currently doesnt have an unused Tier 4 Recruitment Order.
Therefore, Kelsey is undoubtedly the best candidate.
Although her personality is a bit quirky and untamed, ording to Linda, her character has no issues.
Her domineering and overbearing nature is just a habit she developed since she was young in order to not be bullied by her familys main branch.
At this moment, Leo Ray followed the girl through the red velvet carpeted corridor of the Trading Conference, continuing to ponder: Moreover, Kelsey has received elite education from the Sanders family, and her personal abilities and cultivation talents are exceptional.
At such a young age, she has already reached the level of a Tier 3 Powerhouse, and is worth my further nurturing.
The most crucial point is that, just like Linda, Kelsey and her side branch of the family have been oppressed by the main branch for a long time, and their goals align with mine.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this.
Following Kelseys guidance, their party had arrived in a luxurious and secluded guest room.
My lord, I really cant thank you enough for your help earlier!
After Leo Ray sat down, Kelsey tidied her clothes, bowed politely.
Then she sincerely thanked him: I was careless before, I hope you wont hold it against me!
At this moment, countless thoughts filled Kelseys mind.
One could imagine that if this calm young man had not appeared.
If their adversaries scheme had been sessful, their side branch would never have a chance to rise again.
Its worth noting that in order to gain the familys trust, her father had gone to great lengths and offended many opposing forces within the family.
Once they lose the protection of the family, it wouldnt be impossible for them to bepletely wiped out by some opposing forces in secret.
No need to be so polite, it was just a small effort on my part.
With a faint smile, Leo Ray took a sip of the fragrant tea Amelia had just brewed and responded.
My lord, my father hasnt returned yet from collecting auction items, but Ive already sent someone to notify him. He will definitely be very grateful to you when he returns!
Immediately following, Kelsey, who was on the side, once again expressed her gratitude to Leo Ray.
At this moment, her eyes were clear and full of appreciation, she no longer had her previous arrogance.
It was as if the stubborn and willful youngdy from not long ago was apletely different person.
No rush. On the other hand, seeing that the timing was right, Leo Ray put down the steaming cup of tea in his hand.
While signaling his subordinates to remove their Illusion Cloaks, he nodded to Taylor.
The next second, an overwhelming aura enveloped the room, isting it from the outside world.
For a moment, the Tier 4 weapons on the subordinates bodies, and the Tier 5 longswords on Leo Ray and Taylor immediately emitted a strong radiance.
It instantly filled the entire room with dazzling lights, almost too much for anyone to take in.
A Tier 5 Powerhouse and Tier 5 weapons Who are you?!
Witnessing this incredible scene, Kelsey swallowed, her delicate figure trembling uncontrobly, almost unable to breathe.
Without a doubt, having grown up in the Sanders Trading Conference and received aristocratic education, she knew better than anyone what all this meant.
National-level powerhouses and divine weapons at the national level, that is the pinnacle of power in this country, the absolute symbol of royal authority!
Linda, tell her everything about us.
Gazing at the shock on her delicate face, Leo Ray raised his teacup and took another sip of tea, smiling slightly.
Thus, after Lindas description.
In no time, Kelsey, with excitement all over her pretty face, had already knelt on one knee and deeply bowed her head to Leo Ray.
This subordinate, Kelsey Sanders, is willing to pledge her loyalty to the Lord for all the things the Lord has done for the side-line members of our Sanders
n!
Alright, lets start the contract then.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray bent down to help Kelsey up, and at the same time, a Tier 3 Recruitment Order shining with golden light suddenly appeared in his hand.
Shortly after, the familiar prompt sounded in Leo Rays ear.
[Congrattions, Tier 3 Two-Star Martial Artist Kelsey Sanders has signed a Master-Servant Contract with you and became your new subordinate!] Hearing this, Leo Ray casually opened her attribute column.
[Name: Kelsey]
[upation: Martial Artist] [Tier: Tier 3 Two-Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Spiral Triple Kick Active (Small range physical single-target attack)]
[Skill 2: Fierce Tiger Roaring Fist Active (Powerful physical single-target attack, with a small chance of causing dizziness)]
[Skill 3: Close Combat Mastery Passive (Moderately increase damage in closebat)]
Not bad, not bad, just like Gideon ck, they are upations that prefer to fight unarmed, right? With this, my next move can be better executed.
It seems that supporting Linda to ascend to the position of family head of the
Sanders Family is no longer far away.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray moved his mind and immediately handed over the seven Rose Gathering Energy Pills and a Tier 4 Short Sword for self-defense to Kelsey.
Lord, this is ?
Holding the items handed over by Leo Ray, Kelsey couldnt help but be stunned, her eyes rolling up, almost fainting.
She had once been fortunate enough to see a Tier 3 Magic Medicine Rose
Gathering Energy Pill, which was worth nearly two million Gold Dragons!
And the Lord actually took out seven of them all at once, along with a Tier 4
weapon was Important to Know mat even her lier 4 powerhousemer only used a Tier 3 weapon.
There is no doubt that the market value of these items alone exceeds 15 million Gold Dragons.
Such value is far beyond what she and her entire n, along with all their subordinates, could achieve even if they worked together for a century!
Most importantly, all of these were given to her by the Lord himself!
Thinking of this, Kelsey fiercely pinched her fair cheeks, and after confirming that she was not dreaming, she revealed a look of ecstasy and knelt down on the ground again.
Get up, in the future you will need to support Linda in controlling the Sanders
Family together. Before that, you need to grow rapidly, do you understand?
Smiling faintly, Leo Ray shook the steaming teacup in his hand and spoke again.
Yes, my Lord!
After a while, Kelsey finally calmed down, took a deep breath, and a solemn expression appeared on her delicate face.
She respectfully saluted again and said, By the way, my Lord, have you ever seen a white Gothic-style metal mask?
Chapter 294 - 294: The Ancient Box_1
Chapter 294: The Ancient Box_1
Trantor: 549690339
A white Gothic mask?
Upon hearing Kelseys words and somewhat surprised, Leo Rays expression turned serious, and he immediately became alert.
With a thought, a white metal mask engraved with a shield-shaped ck cracked emblem and the number 00235 appeared in his hand, which he then handed over to Kelsey.
lne mysterious organizations mask was acquired trom IV1ael WOOd at tne Immortal Gate.
My Lord, its exactly this strange emblem!
After carefully examining the mask in Leo Rays hand, Kelsey blinked her elongated eyshes and blurted out.
Kelsey, have you seen such a white mask before?
With a puzzled frown, Leo Ray immediately asked further.
My Lord, indeed. Heres what happened.
Nodding slightly, Kelsey took a deep breath, her pretty face bing enigmatic as she continued, Just a month ago, apletely unexpected massacre urred at an ancient ruin not far from Viennas City.
The battling parties were the Viennas City Defense Army and mysterious people wearing these white masks.
Through Kelseys detailed description, Leo Ray learned the following.
Apparently, some time ago, a small, unknown races ancient ruins buried in mud were discovered in a basin south of Viennas City.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Viennas City immediately organized the citys archaeological officials, leading five defense teams and the Sanders Trading Conferences senior appraisers to investigate.
And so, after several days of exploration, the investigation team eventually found an ancient metal chest with an unknown purpose, sealed deep within the ruins. It was this chest that drew the covetous eyes of the mysterious masked people.
Upon hearing Kelseys ount, Leo Ray couldnt help but contemte.
Beginning with the long-sealed Immortal Gate in the depths of Golin Citys abandoned mine, followed by the Elf City that had vanished during the Era of nkness 3,000 years ago, and the mysterious ancient battlefield remains in the Mirage.
He had already had three more or less direct encounters with this mysterious and unfathomable powerful organization.
At present, it could be confirmed that the other party was deliberately searching for something in these ancient locations.
It seems that the metal chest mentioned by Kelsey might be one of the targets of the mysterious organization. Perhaps there may be some clues on it, but this remains uncertain.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray regained his spirits, gesturing to Amelia to bring more tea while continuing, Kelsey, has the ancient metal chest been snatched away by the mysterious masked people?
My Lord, the reinforcements from the city arrived just in time, including myself and my father.
So, the mysterious masked people failed to take it away, and after collecting the bodies of their deadrades, they fled in disgrace.
However, during the massacre, two Tier 3 elders from the Viennas City Lords family were killed on the spot.
As a result, the Viennas City Lord held this auction in order to avenge the two elders.
Oh? So theres a deeper meaning to this Viennas City auction?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray took the tea cup offered by Amelia and couldnt help but show a slightly surprised expression.
My Lord, thats indeed the case.
Nodding slightly, Kelsey exined, This Viennas City auction is divided into three parts: afternoon, evening, and night. The grand finale of thest night auction is that mysterious Ancient Chest!
Fixing her bun hairstyle, Kelsey continued, In addition, Lord, the Ancient
Chest is currently stored in the vault deep inside the Sanders Trading Conference.ln it, there is an extremely powerful mini defensive barrier guarding it, so even a Tier 5 Powerhouse would not be able to take it away.
So thats how it is
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray, who was holding a teacup, pondered for a
moment, and then asked further, Kelsey, do you mean that the Lord of Viennas City intends to use the Ancient Chest to set a trap to attract members of the mysterious organization, in order to achieve his revenge?
Yes, thats exactly it.
On the other side, Kelsey solemnly nodded her head and said, My Lord, this matter is extremely confidential, and only a very small number of people know about it. I happened to hear about it because my father, a Tier 4 Powerhouse, was part of the ambush crew.
What kind of powerhouse lineup has the Lord of Viennas City prepared? Putting down the teacup in his hand, Leo Ray continued to inquire.
My Lord, including the City Lord and my father, there are a total of five Tier 4
Powerhouses, and more than twenty Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses and Tier 3
Senior Powerhouses.
Kelsey once again bowed her fist and respectfully replied, Most of them were hired by the City Lord, at great expense, from private forces such as the well-known Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps of the Coldme Kingdom.
Five Tier 4 Powerhouses, more than twenty Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses, and Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses? If its against conventional forces, its indeed quite an impressive lineup.
At this moment, watching the ripples in the teacup after putting it down,
Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a thoughtful expression, murmuring to himself, It seems that the Lord of Viennas City still does not know enough about the mysterious organization.
My Lord, what do you mean?
With a puzzled look on her face, Kelsey blinked and asked.
On the other hand, Leo Ray didnt hesitate to recount the clues he had about the mysterious organization to Kelsey.
There are at least seven Tier 5 Powerhouses in the organization?!
Upon hearing this, Kelsey incredulously widened her eyes and hurriedly said,
My Lord, isnt my father in grave danger then?
Dont panic, the influence of this mysterious organization is spread across many human nations, and many times they operate simultaneously at various locations, with their personnel being rather scattered. Therefore, its not certain that a Tier 5 Powerhouse will appear this time.
Leo Ray waved his hand slightly, signaling Kelsey not to worry, and then immediately spoke, However, just in case, lets think of a way to verify this matter.
Verify? My Lord, how do we go about verifying?
Upon hearing this, Kelsey scratched her head and asked, somewhat bewildered.
Kelsey, after encountering the assassination of the mysterious organization, the City Lord and you must have already suspected the issue of internal traitors, right?
After a brief ponder, Leo Ray picked up the teacup and took a sip of hot tea, then asked.
My Lord, indeed.
Nodding slightly, Kelsey replied, At the time when the Ancient Chest was excavated, only the City Lords side, my father, and Clyde Thompsons father, who was the deputy chairman, had learned of this information.
However, since Clyde himself and his father were not at the scene during the attack and even participated in the subsequent rescue operation,
together with the identity of the Sanders familys direct line, they were excluded from suspicion. After multiple investigations by the City Lords side, no clues were found.
Therefore, the matter teetered out, and everyone now believes that the investigative team must have been targeted by the mysterious organization before the box was even dug up.
Perhaps you have overlooked another detail.
With a faint smile, Leo Ray slowly said..
Chapter 295 - 293: Kelsey’s Loyalty
295 Chapter 295: The Oue in the Reception Room_1
As soon as Leo Ray uttered these words, not only did Kelsey, who was standing respectfully in front of him, show a thoughtful expression.
Taylor, Linda, and Mason Banks by his side also became contemtive, pondering these words.
While everyone was in deep thought,
Leo Ray smiled slightly and continued to question Kelsey, the stunning redhead before him, "If my guess is correct, after the Ancient Chest was stored in the Defensive Barrier of Sanders'' Trading Conference,
Those masked men with impressive abilities should not have appeared again, right?"
"My Lord, you are indeed correct."
Without hesitation, Kelsey nodded in agreement, visibly puzzled, as she touched the chignon at the back of her head, "But, my Lord, what does this reveal?"
"I see..."
On the other side, Linda''s face suddenly cleared up, and she eximed,
"The treasury within Sanders'' Trading Conference is the most secretive ce. In theory, the mysterious organization''s formidable experts would not naturally know about the existence of the Defensive Barrier.
If so, they should have seized while the Lord of Viennas City was unprepared, regrouped their strength, and directly stormed the trading conference to seize the Ancient Chest. Why have they remained inactive?"
"Unless from the very beginning, they knew of a barrier in the treasury that even a Tier 5 Powerhouse couldn''t break!"
Upon hearing this, Kelsey was startled and immediately understood.
After calming her thoughts slightly, Kelsey furrowed her brows and continued, "This strong Defensive Barrier was requested by my father years ago through our family connections.
Although the effective range is only half a cubic meter, it is enough to store valuable items securely.
Only my father, Clyde Thompson, his Vice-President''s father, and I are aware of this matter.
Moreover, in recent times, my father and I have been preupied with securing auction items to maintain his position as President. We''ve been constantly traveling in and out of the city, overlooking this detail.
Looking back, it seems that the reason they initiated thepetition for the President''s qualification was not only to gain the position but also to distract my father and me as much as possible."
"What an ingenious way of killing two birds with one stone! So, it''s basically confirmed that the annoying white-faced guy and his father are members of the mysterious organization?"
Hearing this, Mason Banks stroked the white beard on his elderly face and pondered.
"It''s highly likely. Based on Michael Wood''s situation, we can confirm that some Coldme nobles have secretly joined the opposing camp. However, we cannot rule out other schemes by the mysterious organization this time."
Leo Ray, sitting on the sofa, slightly nodded, emptied the hot tea in his tea cup,
and then looked up at Kelsey, asking, "Kelsey, the Lord of Viennas City''s use of the Ancient Chest as a trap should be unknown to Clyde and his Vice-President father, right?"
"Yes, my Lord, that''s correct."
On the other side, Kelsey nodded her head and replied, "Since my father has a closer rtionship with the City Lord, and the other''s father only has a Tier 3 Peak-level power,
With these two men trying to scheme behind our backs and dethrone my father from his position as President, we haven''t informed them about this matter.
However, I believe they must have sensed something amiss, but they are not aware of the specific strength configuration on the City Lord''s side."
"I see."
Nodding his head slightly, Leo Ray immediately continued, "Considering our analysis thus far, there shouldn''t be any issues with the first two auctions in the afternoon. We can participate as usual.
As for the final auction in the evening, if we can figure out the mysterious organization''s powerhouse team configuration for seizing the Ancient Chest, that would be best.
If not, we can make other ns as needed. After all, neither the City Lord''s side nor the mysterious organization are aware of our existence, the third party."
At the moment, Leo Ray''s ideal situation is to seize the Ancient Chest amidst the chaos of the opposing parties fighting.
As for the safety of Kelsey and her father during his absence, there is no need to worry.
After all, Viennas City is a medium-sized city controlled by the Coldme family, and the Defense Army inside the city numbers at least eight thousand. In addition, there are therge number of mercenaries hired by the City Lord.
As soon as the Ancient Chest disappears, the mysterious organization''s experts, without a target, would no longer choose to continue battling.
"I wonder what the Ancient Chest is and what secrets it hides? What makes the mysterious organization so persistent?"
At this thought, Leo Ray paused, and then spoke to the redhead in front of him, "By the way, Kelsey, my actions in the hall just now must have aroused Clyde''s suspicions.
We can fabricate an identity as a noble from a remote region, and then spread it to dispel their doubts."
Without a doubt, Leo Ray considered this approach because,
From the perspective of the opponents, if they were really here for the Ancient Chest, they would not be so high-profile.
Furthermore, the Ancient Chest is a secret known only to a select few.
So even if Clyde is truly a member of the mysterious organization, there is no need to worry too much about them being alerted.
"Yes, my Lord!"
Kelsey stepped forward and bowed in response.
"For now, let''s leave it at that. As for our next move, we can just act as a hidden third party and respond ordingly."
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray mused for a moment and continued to the redhead before him, "By the way, Kelsey, do you have anything here that can conceal one''s aura?"
At present, he only had a single blessed Invisibility Cloak with the perfect aura-concealing effect.
If the number of these items could be increased, it would undoubtedly offer significant aid to his future endeavors.
On the other hand, Kelsey bit her red lips in thought for a moment, then her eyes lit up and she said, "My Lord, there are indeed items here that possess simr effects.
Why not take this opportunity to visit to the VIP Hall with me and have a look?"
"Very well, let''s go."
Hearing this, Leo Ray lightly smiled. Draped once more in the Illusion Cloak, he followed Kelsey towards the VIP Hall of the Trading Conference.
Chapter 296 - 294: The Ancient Box_1
296 Chapter 296: The Hidden Object_1
Just like that, after leaving the reception room, Leo Ray and his group proceeded along the luxurious corridor covered in red carpet.
Not long after, they encountered a room that was currently in a closed state.
At first nce, the entrance of this room was equipped with a thick double metal door.
Tworge green nts were ced on the left and right sides, exuding a fresh and natural botanical scent.
Above the door, the characters "oriole hall" were written in a lively and graceful manner.
Moreover, above the metal door, colorful streamers shed, indicating that an extraordinary magic restriction was arranged.
"My Lord, this exhibition hall is solely managed by our side members, and will only be opened when receiving VIP guests of the Trading Conference. Please enjoy your visit, my Lord," said Kelsey as she performed a respectful bow and pulled out a fist-sized, cylindrical, milky-white crystal stone.
She then squatted down and gently pressed the crystal stone to the lower left corner of the door.
In an instant, circles of magical ripples emanated from the lower left corner of the door, shimmering brilliantly.
Crack.
Apanied by an ethereal unlocking sound, the door opened in response.
"So that''s how it works. The crystal stone is the ''key'' to opening the magical restriction, and it has to touch a specific spot on the door for it to open?"
Looking at the unusual scene before him, Leo Ray stroked his chin, revealing a contemtive expression as he murmured, "It seems, even if one acquires the crystal stone, the door won''t open if it''s ced in the wrong position, right?"
"Yes, my Lord, that is correct," Kelsey replied while making a weing gesture. She then went on to exin, "This magic restriction possesses aprehensive rm and automatic defense system.
If someone tries to intrude, it will trigger a chain reaction that not only activates the surrounding magic traps but also instantly alerts the nearby guards to provide assistance."
"I see." Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and stepped inside the exhibition hall under Kelsey''s guidance.
This underground Trading Conference showroom was incredibly luxurious.
Whether it was the exquisite golden relief sculptures on the walls, the smooth and bright marble floors, or the dazzling light crystal stone and amber chandelier hanging from the ceiling, it all exuded an elegant and noble atmosphere.
In the open room covering nearly a hundred square meters, transparent disy cabs were sporadically ced throughout.
Exquisite works of art were disyed inside, and realistic paintings depicting battlefields, knights, fortresses, and gs were hung on the walls.
So, it seemed more fitting to call this ce a high-end art gallery rather than just a showroom for selling goods.
"I didn''t expect that I would have exclusive ess to such a luxurious venue one day," said Leo Ray while looking at the surrounding opulent scenery and walking into the hall.
"My Lord, please follow me this way," Kelsey said as she nodded and closed the door again.
With Kelsey''s proficient guidance, Leo Ray and the others slowly proceeded while looking around at the exquisite artworks.
They eventually arrived at a transparent vertical disy cab.
This cab was divided into two levels. Leo Ray was very familiar with the items at the bottom C the Illusion Cloaks they were currently wearing C five in total.
The top level, however, contained five identical rings.
Upon close inspection, these rings were made from a bright silver material with a frosted effect. Their surface was engraved with unusual patterns, and their simple yet elegant design made them look quite refined.
"My Lord, these are five Concealment Rings, originating from the nearby Saint Night Kingdom. They are attached with an extremely remarkable special concealment technique that can be activated as long as a little energy is infused into them," Kelsey exined.With a smile at Leo Ray, Kelsey began to introduce: "After activation, it will be hard for anyone below Tier 4 to identify the wearer''s true strength or locate them through their aura."
Of course, if the wearer himself is a Tier 4 powerhouse, it will also have an effect on opponents who are several stars above their level."
At this point, Kelsey extended her slender hand, opened the disy cab and continued to introduce Leo Ray: "Originally, these rings were prepared by my father for the traps at tonight''s auction."
However, because the Lord of Viennas City found a mercenary powerhouse who can cast a Tier 4 group stealth spell, they were stored here instead."
"I see."
With a slight nod, Leo Ray casually picked up a shiny ring and opened its attribute column.
[Name: Concealment Ring]
[Grade: Tier 3?Excellent (Blue)]
[Defense Strength: None]
[Additional Effect: Tier 3 Stealth ''Can hide the wearer''s aura and energy fluctuations, has a miraculous effect on Tier 3 and below powerhouses'']
[Remark: This concealment ring is personally enchanted by a stealth master from Saint Night Kingdom. Wear it and blend into the darkness, bing the brightest child of the dark world.]
"Not bad, this ring not only allows powerhouses below Tier 3 to see through the wearer''s true strength but also has a stealth effect. Whether it''s paired with Illusion Cloaks or Invisibility Cloaks, it will add a finishing touch!"
With a satisfied nod, Leo Ray continued to ponder, "Imagine if our Tier 2 Elite Squadron were to be fully equipped with Illusion Cloaks and Concealment Rings, as long as there are no Tier 4 or above powerhouses nearby.
They could march into enemy cities without anyone noticing!"
Thinking this, Leo Ray couldn''t help but show a hint of joy on his face while feeling the ring''s matte surface.
"My Lord, please ept these five Concealment Rings and five Illusion Cloaks as a token of my appreciation!"
On the other side, seeing Leo Ray''s satisfied expression, Kelsey hurriedly spoke with a joyful look on her pale face.
"I won''t be polite then."
With a slight nod, Leo Ray waved his hand and collected all the items in the disy cab.
Without hesitation, he began to upgrade.
In the end, he obtained 200 Illusion Cloaks, 3 Invisibility Cloaks, 300 Concealment Rings, and 2 Vanishing Rings.
"Vanishing Ring?"
Hearing the upgrade prompt, Leo Ray immediately opened the new ring''s attribute column.
[Name: Vanishing Ring]
[Grade: Tier 4?Epic (Purple)]
[Defense Strength: None]
[Additional Effect: Tier 4 Stealth ''Can hide the wearer''s aura and energy fluctuations, has a miraculous effect on Tier 4 and below powerhouses'']
[Remark: This Vanishing Ring is enchanted by the Dark Elf race, famous for their stealth abilities. Wear it, and the night will merge with you, making everywhere you go darkness itself!]
"Good thing, has the stealth level increased? If we equip Serena and Ste with this, coupled with their own assassin stealth skills and Invisibility Cloaks with some stealth effects.
With the triple effect, let alone Tier 4 powerhouses, even monitoring a Tier 5 powerhouse at a certain distance would hardly be detected. Let Taylor test the effectter."
Delighted, Leo Ray nodded satisfactorily.
With the new Vanishing Rings and Invisibility Cloaks, their chances of monitoring Clyde Thompson and his son, as well as actions at the final auction tonight, are undoubtedly greater!
Chapter 297: The Lord and the Middle-aged Powerhouse 1
Chapter 297: The Lord and the Middle-aged Powerhouse 1
Trantor: 549690339
After that, Leo Ray and his group didnt linger and went straight back to the luxurious reception room they had been in earlier.
Thud thud thud.
Just as Leo Ray sat down on the soft velvet sofa and took a few sips of hot tea, the door to the room suddenly knocked gently.
Come in.
With Leo Rays permission, Kelsey entered the room, holding the arm of a middle-aged powerhouse who exuded an extraordinary aura.
Upon closer inspection, the middle-aged man had a strong and sturdy build, a dignified and resolute face, and was dressed in a light gray brocade robe that fit him well.
Between his coarse eyebrows, he revealed a sense of free-spiritedness and boldness, looking quite imposing and righteous.
Sir this is my father, the chairman of the Sanders Trading Conference in Viennas City!
Kelsey stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Leo Ray as her crisp voice introduced him.
As the time was not right, under Leos instruction,
Kelsey had not revealed the true identity of the people in their party, only saying that they were nobles from a remote area brought by Linda.
I am Gael Sanders, and I am grateful for Your Excellencys great help to our Sanders coteral branch!
Following that, Gael, the middle-aged powerhouse, raised his calloused hand in a fist and expressed his gratitude to Leo Ray.
At this moment, Gaels mood was filled with a myriad of thoughts.
From Kelseys brief introduction before entering the door, he already knew that
this indifferent young man not only brought a perfect victory for the struggle between himself and the main branch,
but, most surprisingly, he saw his willful and wayward beloved daughter disy such respect and proper etiquette!
It should be known that even when she had met the City Lord, this rascal girl would mostly just perfunctorily pay a courteous bow.
Additionally, with his Tier 4 three-Star strength, he sensed that besides this indifferent young man himself being at the Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses, the other followers by his side were mostly Tier 3 Peak Powerhouses.
As for the burly man with thergest build, even he could not see through him at all.
Thus, it could be seen that if this burly man did not use any means to hide his aura, his strength was undoubtedly above Gaels.
In short, no matter from which aspect, this indifferent young man in front of him was by no means an ordinary person!
Thinking about this, Gael, the Tier 4 powerhouse, showed a hint of barely visible admiration in his determined eyes.
Master Gael is too polite.
On the other side, rising to his feet and politely returning the gesture, Leo Ray smiled faintly and continued, I just did what I could because of my rtionship with Linda.
Linda, thank you foring in time this time, otherwise, Im afraid the position of chairman of the Viennas City Branch would have really changed hands.
After nodding to Leo Ray first, Gael smiled at Linda next to Leo Ray and then sighed lightly, I have also heard about the difficulties you faced at the Cyan Town Branch during the previous family conference.
Initially, Kelsey and I had nned to give part of the profits from the Viennas City Branch to you guys to help you tide over the difficulties.
However, those direct descendants were really too vignt, and with this recent incident, I hope Linda wont take it to heart.Uncle Gael, you are too serious.
Linda smiled at Gael, her delicate face not showing any resentment, and waved her hand, saying, Since I was young, you have taken great care of me.
Otherwise, as a side branch with limited power in the family, I wouldnt have achieved what I have today. After all, you bear the responsibility of protecting many other side branch members and must consider the overall situation.
Ah, its just because your father and mother died too early in battle, otherwise, this burden wouldnt have fallen upon me.
Helplessly shaking his head, Gael first smiled bitterly and then expressed his gratitude to Leo Ray, But now, with the assistance of this promising young man, I believe the fate of our side branches will change as well.
Master Gael is too kind. Because I have a good rtionship with Linda, I will naturally do my best to help you all change your position within the family.
Leo Ray smiled slightly, took a sip of tea, and continued, So in the future, there will be many intersections between us. I hope you will be patient with me, Master Gael.
Your Excellency is too modest. If you need my help in the future, just let me know. I dont even know how to repay you for the great favor of providing so many auction items.
Gaelughed heartily and then nced helplessly at Kelsey beside him, saying,
Also, if my daughter offends Your Excellency in any way, please forgive her.
Master Gael, theres no need to be so polite.
Putting down the empty teacup that still had some warmth, Leo Ray continued to smile, Kelseys candid and straightforward temperament is quite likable.
At this point, Leo Ray paused for a moment, a sharp light in his eyes, and said, By the way, as for our movements, I hope Master Gael will keep them a secret and not mention them to anyone.
Please rest assured, Your Excellency, I know what to do. Gael nodded knowingly, without hesitation, and replied.
Alright then, we wont impose on you any further, Mr. Gael.
With a faint smile, Leo Ray stood up from the sofa, moving his slightly stiff neck and saying, Next, Kelsey will apany us, taking advantage of the time before the auction begins to stroll around Viennas City.
Without a doubt, since Serena and Ste were still on their way, and Scarlett and Bianca White were also outside
So, Leo Ray could not stay here for long.
Understood, then well see you at the auction.
Gael, who also stood up, said with a smile, Anyway, we really appreciate Your Excellencys help this time.
We have a long journey ahead, and I hope the side branch members of the Sanders family will flourish.
With that, under Gaels farewell, Leo Ray led his subordinates out of the guest room.
So, having bid farewell to Gael, those who put on their Illusion Cloaks again left the Sanders Trading Conference, blending into the bustling crowd on the streets.
Of course, in order to avoid attracting attention, Kelsey also disguised herself through illusion.
However, from the slightly awkward way she walked, it was obvious that she was not ustomed to it yet.
Next, after reuniting with Scarlett and Bianca White, who were squatting in a corner of the street, eating various roasted meat skewers happily, face to face.
Leo Ray instructed Linda to go to the city gate to meet the arriving Serena and Ste.
Just as everything waspleted, and Leo Ray was about to lead his subordinates to a quieter ce to rest for a while.
A suddenmotion appeared among theing and going crowds at the street corner ahead..

Hearing an unusual sound, Leo Ray signaled Taylor and Mason Banks beside him to make way through the bustling crowd.
Meanwhile, he looked through the gaps between peoples heads towards the direction of the sound.
He saw two young waiters with helpless expressions at the wooden door of a small tavern, pulling a bearded middle-aged man out together.
They were trying to drag him from the stone steps in front of the tavern to the busy street.
This action caused many passersby around to be surprised and watch curiously.
They all subconsciously made room and walked around.
This directly led to the already slightly crowded lively street bing even more congested.
Looking closely, the shabby middle-aged man was wearing a set of hemp clothes covered in mud.
His messy hair was like a dirty mop that hadnt touched water in a long time.
In his arms, he was holding a scratched and battered lute.
Moreover, it was clear to see.
Due to being dragged on the ground, his exposed skin had a lot of abrasions.
However, he seemedpletely unaware and reached out to grab a broken wine bottle not far away that was already mostly empty.
Its Old Nick.
At this moment, Kelsey slightly furrowed her brows and introduced to Leo Ray in a low voice, Lord, this guy is actually a wandering poet in the city with Tier 2 Peak Level strength.
He usually sings in various taverns and asionally takes on missions with mercenaries, untilst winter, amidst the falling snow.
A team of elite mercenaries went on a mission and only he staggered back. He copsed at the city gate in the snow and was saved by the city guards. Since then, he has been acting crazy.
At this point, Kelsey helplessly shook her head and continued, At that time, this matter was widely talked about and even caught the attention of the Viennas City Mercenary Guild.
After all, the mission location was rtively safe and within the team, there were two quite strong Tier 3 Powerhouses.
However, since the Mercenary Guilds multiple investigations yielded no results, not even the bodies of the other mercenaries or traces of battle were found at the scene.
Moreover, Old Nick has been greatly shocked and can no longermunicate properly, so the matter was dropped.
Up to now, no one knows what happened at that time, except for Old Nick, who has already gone mad.
So thats what happened, it seems that there must be some unknown story behind all this.
Leo Ray, watching the muddy middle-aged man not far away from them in the noisy crowd, nodded thoughtfully.
Even if there is, we have no way to know now.
Kelsey shrugged lightly, sighed, and continued, After that, I took pity on him and helped him many times, even intending to find him a job.
However, because he spent his days in a stupor, and kept mumbling about some iprehensible Great Catastrophe, I finally gave up.
Great Catastrophe?
Hearing this, Leo Rays expression turned grave, and he became instantly alert.
He had heard this ominous term twice before.
The first time was from Daisy Sasha of the Magic Tower, recounting the elders prophecy who was skilled in divination.
The second time was from Penelope Welbourn, recounting her Tier 2 Subordinate Auroras prophecy.
Regarding this matter, Leo Ray had specifically asked Penelope when he had visited her territory.
However, Penelope only had vague premonitions.
From Daisy Sasha of the Magic Tower, Penelope Welbourns subordinates divination, to todays Kelsey, I have heard this term three times.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray shook his head as he gazed at the disheveled figure holding the lute in the distance, and fell into deep thought.
Could it bethat what happened to him before is rted to the uing Great Catastrophe? Or did he learn some clues about the Great Catastrophe during his ordeal?
Realizing this, Leo Rays expression became even more serious.
He shifted his gaze to the happy faces of the peopleing and going around him, pondering the situation.
Undoubtedly, his current understanding of the Great Catastrophe was still only on the surface.
He only knew that at some point in the future, a terrible disaster might sweep across the entire world.
As for when it would happen and in what form, he was clueless.
However, one thing was almost certain. If this so-called Great Catastrophe were to ur,
It would not only affect him, but also the billions of lords who arrived simultaneously.
Even the Human n, along with the countless other races inhabiting this continent, would face an unprecedented change or even a devastating disaster.
Come to think of it, could the nk Age three thousand years ago mentioned by Jasper Richardson in the Elf Ruins be rted to the approaching Great Catastrophe?
And the actions of the mysterious organization, are they rted to this as well? Even our arrivals as Otherworldly Lords, could they be foreshadowing something?

At this point of contemtion, Leo Ray, who felt like a tangled mess in his heart, sighed quietly to himself.
Undoubtedly, at this stage, the clues he had were extremely limited.
It was simply impossible to make further spections.
Forget it, ording to my previous n, my current goal is still only one, which is to continuously umte strength, enhance my own abilities, and be well prepared for any unknown events that may happen next.
Upon thinking this, Leo Rays gaze returned to the disheveled wandering poet not far away.
All in all, this person may be an important clue, but its still uncertain.
With this in mind, Leo Ray did not hesitate to lead his main subordinates, passing through the surrounding crowd and directly arriving at the front of the tavern.
When he approached the huddled figure on the ground, Leo Ray could clearly sense through his extraordinary perception.
That the other partys strength was indeed at the Tier 2 Peak Level.
However, the momentum was illusory and insubstantial, like a thin thread, indicating that he hadnt practiced in a long time.
Old Nick, Old Nick, its not that we wont give you a drink, but youe asking every day, and weve only just opened.
At that moment, a young attendant with a helpless expression on his face struggled to drag the disheveled middle-aged man called Old Nick down the stairs.
Just as he was about to turn and leave, he was captivated by a bag of glittering gold dragons.
Go in and tell your boss that Ill take care of this tavern. Take this middle-aged man in safely.
Leo Ray handed the gold dragons to the attendant and smiled, then pointed at the middle-aged man called Nick on the ground.
Please wait a moment, sir!
With the heavy gold coins in hand, the young attendants eyes lit up and quickly, along with another astonished attendant, ran back into the tavern.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them came running out swiftly.
Behind them was a portly middle-aged man, and without any hesitation, the trio gave Leo Ray a grateful bow with smiles on their faces.
Then they carefully lifted the confused and bewildered Nick back inside.
On the other hand, amidst the astonished gazes of the surrounding crowd, Leo Ray entered the tavern and noticed.
That this ce was more spacious than Matthews tavern in Golin City, although the environment was quite simr.
Whether it was the air filled with the scent of alcohol and vomit, the extinguished old brass oilmp on the greasy table, or the neatly arranged beer mugs and white towels on the wooden L-shaped bar. Everywhere exuded a strong medieval atmosphere.
Sir, do you have any other instructions?
The portly tavern owner closed the door, rubbing his hands as he hurried to Leo Rays side with a smiling face.
Without a doubt, the gold coins given by this gentleman just now were equal to the profit of his small tavern for several months!
Looking at the disheveled middle-aged man not far away, sitting peacefully and gulping down the bottle of wine, Leo Ray casually asked: Has he always been like this?
To answer your question, sir, that is indeed the case.
Upon hearing this, the tavern owner nodded helplessly and replied: This guyes to my ce almost every day to eat and drink for free.
He always talks about the catastrophe, often scaring away my customers, to the point that I often dream of him eating my tavern dry.
Besides the catastrophe, has he mentioned anything else?
Leo Ray slightly pouted his mouth, pondered for a moment, and continued to ask.
Sir, no, he hasnt.
After thinking for a moment, the tavern owner first helplessly looked at the satisfied wandering poet drinking wine not far away, and then shook his head.
Forget it, find me a separate room, I have something to ask him. Leo Ray nodded slightly and ordered.
Thus, in a room enveloped in Taylors aura and isted from the outside world, after a patient interrogation, Leo Ray noticed.
That this middle-aged wandering poet named Nick was indeed unable tomunicate normally, as his quivering voice kept repeating the words catastrophe.Sometimes, he showed a terrified expression, shocked and trembling, like a madman.
Feeling helpless, Leo Ray sniffed the strong body odor of the other and frowned slightly, before connecting remotely to Gideon ck and Orion Wolfe, the two of his own strongest healers.
After describing Nicks condition in detail, Leo Ray learned that:
The other partys situation wasnt due to an abnormal state caused by magic power or mental attack, but simply that they had experienced intense fear.
Therefore, even if they used high-level purifying magic, they wouldnt be able to heal him. They could only use healing potions as a supplement and wait for him to recover slowly on his own.
Speaking of which, Lord, without any intervention of magic power, its quite rming to make a Tier 2 Peak strongman feel such fear. He must have seen something really extraordinary, said Gideon through the mind talk.
Well, it looks like well only find out the truth about thister on, said Leo Ray with a helpless smile and then closed the mind talk.
Alright, since thats the case, Kelsey, you can arrange for someone to take care of this guy. Dont forget to clean him up properly, said Leo Ray, looking at the disoriented middle-aged wandering poet in front of him.
Then, he turned to the red-dressed woman beside him and said, This person is very crucial to us, so we must take good care of him.
As he said this, Leo Ray handed twenty Tier 2 Healing Potions to Kelsey.
Currently, Leo Ray had more than 300 Tier 2 Healing Potions, so he didnt need to worry about the quantity.
Yes, Lord!
On the other side, through Leo Rays description earlier, Kelsey also realized the seriousness of the matter and promptly saluted.
As soon as he recovers, be sure to let me know.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray had just finished saying this when the mind talk notification sounded again.
Upon connecting, Lindas voice came into his ears: Lord, me, Serena, and
Ste have reunited and are on our way to the city!
Great, juste to my current location.
Next, after informing Linda about the name and location of the tavern, Leo Ray told the tavern owner to prepare food and began the next course of action.
Greetings, Lord!
In no time, under Lindas guidance, two delicate and charming figures appeared before Leo Ray at the same time.
Serena and Ste, thank you for your hard work along the way.
In the closed room, looking at the two identical sisters in front of him. Leo Ray stood up and touched their heads before giving them a Vanishing Ring each.
No doubt, it had only been some time since theirst meeting.
However, looking at the well-behaved and agile figures in front of him, Leo Ray couldnt help but feel a sense of worlds apart.
After all, these twin sisters were the oldest and strongest subordinates of his, apart from Taylor.
Thus, after sessfully meeting up with Serena and Ste,
The group had a simple lunch, and Leo Ray immediately ordered Kelsey to guide Serena and Ste to find the whereabouts of Clyde Thompson and his son.
Reporting to the Lord, Serena is in position!
Reporting to the Lord, Ste is in position!
Since Kelsey had earlier secretly ordered people to track them, it didnt take long for the twin sisters monitoring updates to reach Leo Rays ears.
Now that everything is ready, lets wait for our opponents to make a mistake while attending the first two auctions this afternoon.
With that, Leo Ray led his subordinates out of the tavern and headed back to Sanders Trading Conference.
After passing through the bustling streets, they arrived at the entrance of Sanders Trading Conference, where Kelsey, who had been waiting there, greeted them immediately.
There was no doubt that it was time to attend the auction and continue collecting resources and materials!

Next, following Kelseys guidance, Leo Ray and his group headed straight towards Sanders Trading Conference.
Moreover, after Leo Rays arrangement to cover up their true identities and avoid unnecessary trouble.
Bianca White, with her distinct white elf ears andrge tail, Lin, the President of the Cyan Town branch, and Taylor, who served as the trump card, were all hidden under the newly acquired Invisibility Cloaks and equipped with Concealment Rings.
As for the remaining subordinates, Leo Ray divided them into two groups C one group with Leo Ray and Scarlett, and the other with Mason Banks, Abigail, and Amelia, pretending not to know each other.
In this way, even if he were to bid for a significant number of itemster, the two teams could split up without attracting too much attention.
Of course, during this process, the teams could alsopete with each other to raise the price of the auction items when they appeared, maximizing their profits.
Speaking of which, through Kelseys introduction, Leo Ray had already learned about the three auctions to be held in the afternoon, evening, and night within the vast Sanders Trading Conference.
However, the first two auctions took ce in the regr auction halls inside the conference.
Thest one, naturally, was held in the specially prepared auction hall, meticulously arranged by the Lord of Viennas City to attract the members of the mysterious organization.
Walking up the polished stone steps of the trading conference under the two suns shining overhead, Leo Ray noticed.
At this time, besides the original guards at the entrance of the trading conference.
There were also elite soldiers wearing silver-white armor and elite warriors in dark brown leather armor standing in neat rows.
The guards had sharp eyes, constantly scanning the crowd around them.
The weapons in their hands reflected a cold glint in the bright sunlight, giving off an imposing aura.
Before, the roof of the Sanders Trading Conference and the tops of some nearby high-rise buildings were empty.
Now, one could asionally see teams of archers carrying quivers, closely monitoring everything on the street below.
The defense seems quite strict, with the presence of many Tier 3 powerhouses among them. Apparently, these are thebined forces of Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, Lord of Viennas City, and Viennas City
Mercenary Guild,
Noticing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and thought to himself, I have to admit it makes me look forward to tonights events.
On one side, theres the Lord of Viennas City, on the other, the mysterious organization, and then many powerful forces also attending the auction, unaware of the situation. Once the auction starts, some interesting things are bound to happen.
As Leo Ray was contemting this, under Kelseys guidance, the group had already entered through the gates of Sanders Trading Conference and arrived in the luxuriously decorated lobby.
At this moment, the hall was bustling and crowded.
The previous two office areas counters had been removed, reced by numerous luxurious sofas and long wooden dining tables.
At a nce, exquisite desserts and chilled champagne were ced on the dining table, covered with fine white tablecloth, for guests to enjoy freely.
In the vast hall, many nobles and wealthy merchants in luxurious clothes were either elegantly sipping wine and chatting in low voices orughing boisterously.
In the meantime, numerous beautiful young maids carrying trays moved around serving the guests C it appeared like arge-scale social banquet.
Speaking of which, since only the three hidden under the Invisibility Cloaks wore the Illusion Cloaks, while the rest of their group had dressed as ordinary nobles after simple makeovers, they didnt attract much attention from others.
Lord, there are many Tier 2 and Tier 3 powerhouses, and a few Tier 4 powerhouses present. It seems that most of the powerful people in the city have gathered here. Taylors rough voice came through Mind Talk.
Thats expected. Everyone, just act ording to the n.
Having said that, Leo Ray first nodded at the other group with Mason Banks and signaled the three to act freely nearby.
Then, he casually strolled into the crowd with Scarlett and Kelsey.
At present, setting aside Leo Ravs Tier 2, Nine-Star magical strenzth for now, his physical strength as a dual-cultivator of magic and martial arts had reached Tier 3, 5-star.
He had also mastered the Mirage Illusion Skill, a rather deceptive Universal Illusion Skill.
In addition, he had 24 Earth Guardians with strong defensive Tier 3 abilities, over 200 Tier 3 offensive magical scrolls such as Advanced me Burst Bomb and Dark Light Burst in his Space Bracelet.
Furthermore, with their own group of powerful individuals like Taylor, and the Blessing of the Southern Cross Star as a trump card to prevent fatal damage, they had little to worry about.
Most importantly, their superficial identity was merely that of one of the many nobles who came to participate in the auction, and an extremely remote one at that C appearing as an unassuming and even inconspicuous presence.
Therefore, even if the auction were to face any unexpected situations, they could handle them with ease.
Lord, most of the attendees of this auction are well-known nobles, wealthy merchants, and some otherrge forces from surrounding areas, said Kelsey, in a low voice beside Leo Ray..

Immediately after, she raised her slender hand and pointed to an elderly nobleman not far away, with snow-white hair but an upright figure and softly introduced, For example, that one is the Grand Elder of the Marquis
ckwood n. He recently broke through his shackles and stepped into the Tier 4 Powerhouses realm.
He not only received a count title from the Coldme Royal Family but also a sizable territory. Its safe to say that hes enjoying infinite glory and ushering in his second spring in life.
I see.
Looking at the elderly powerhouse with a glowing face, talking andughing as he clinked sses with other nobles, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
And that person there is the famous captain of the Blue Rose Knights, Tina.
Next, Kelsey pointed to another young female knight who was chatting with several noblewomen on the other side.
Following the direction of Kelseys finger, Leo Ray noticed her, looking past the noisy crowd around them.
The female knight, named Tina, was dressed in a light blue knights outfit, perfectly outlining her mature, slender figure.
Compared to Linda, another female knight, her pretty face had less heroic spirit but more charm. With the indifferent temperament she exuded, she had a sense of cold beauty like a mature sister.
Her strength is on par with Linda. Reaching this level at her age can be considered a natural talent, said Leo Ray thoughtfully. However, Im encountering a knight order for the first time.
As he learned more about this world, Leo Ray understood clearly.
In this world, knight orders can generally be divided into two types.
The first type is the direct knight orders established by the royal family itself or powerful nobles with abundant resources.
Compared to ordinary cavalry units, knight orders not only have more formidable fighting power but alsoplete internal personnel structures.
They have an independent base and recruitment authority separate from regr armies, usually only obeying their creators. Basically, they are like privately-ownedpanies from the past.
The second type is independent knight orders founded by lesser nobles, either individually or collectively with joint investment and provided base.
The rtionship between these independent knight orders and their investing nobles is more of a win-win partnership than a hierarchy. During wartime, they assist in defending territories of those nobles. Basically, they are like joint-stockpanies from the past.
However, due to funding constraintspared to direct knight orders, most independent knight orders often need to put in extra work to maintain their normal operations.
For example, eptingmissions like mercenary corps to earnmission fees, or even coborating withrge mercenary corps and the like.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray couldnt help but ponder, Come to think of it, with my current financial resources, I can easily support establishing a fewrge teams or even corps-sized knight orders.
However, even with sufficient funds, starting from scratch to build a knight order C recruiting personnel, training and coordinating soldiers, and practicing tactics C takes too long and is too tedious and time-consuming to formbat power quickly.
Therefore, the quickest method is to directly acquire these ready-made direct or independent knight orders.
Realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but chuckle while gazing at the exquisite silhouette of that indifferent female knight nearby. He thought to himself, What a guy, I initially just wanted to poach talents. Now Im nning to acquire entirepanies directly. However, pursuing both simultaneously will surely enhance our power more quickly.
With that thought, Leo Ray mustered his spirits and asked the red-clothed woman beside him, Kelsey, whats the strength of this Blue Rose Knights?
My Lord, as far as I know, the Blue Rose Knights are an independent knight order with their base at Iron Fort, located between Viennas City and Cyan Town. They have roughly two cavalry corps and one infantry corps, totaling more than 3000 members, but the specificposition of strengths is unclear.
I see.
Hearing that, Leo Ray casually epts a high footed cup respectfully handed over by a pretty maid. While gently swirling the rose-colored liquid inside and smelling the faintly sweet aroma of wine, he pondered, Are there any other knight orders nearby?
My Lord, theres another independent knight order of a simr scale called the Broken de Knights.
Kelsey first took a delicate triangr cheesecake from Scarlett, who was enjoying her meal.
Then, she pointed to a young man with a split hairstyle dressed in knights attire, That man is the Broken de Knights captain, named Layne.
It is said that due to ovepping mission areas, the Blue Rose Knights and Broken de Knights often engage in small-scale conflicts, and their rtions are ipatible.
Understood, is his strength also at Tier 3 Peak?
Looking at the elegant young nobleman whose actions and demeanor resembled Gideon ck, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Deciding in his heart, he thought, It seems these two are my target characters. However, I shouldnt be too hasty with this. Behind them, there are too many forces involved..

Secondly, the other partys background was still unclear.
Additionally, my main purpose this time is to obtain the mysterious Ancient Chest. So, as long as I befriend these two people and establish an initial rtionship, it would be worthwhile.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, the crowd around him began to move towards the front corridor.
Without a doubt, the auction was about to begin.
Without hesitating, Leo Ray and Kelsey stepped forward and followed the flow of people.
So soon? I didnt have time to taste those red velvet cakes and pineapple buns
From the side, Scarlett, who had been stuffing her mouth like a little hamster, frowned slightly.
Before leaving, she looked at the long dining table in front of her with regret and sighed softly.
Since you left the Trading Conference this morning, your mouth hasnt stopped moving. You even had lunch, I dont know where you put it all. Leo Ray shook his head helplessly and gave her a once-over.
In this way, under Kelseys guidance.
Leo Ray, Scarlett, and the three subordinates under the invisibility cloak went directly into the VIP passage with fewer people, heading straight for the auction hall.
During this process, Leo Ray also met Clyde Thompson and some other unfamiliar nobles, who also entered the VIP passage.
However, since Leo Rays party had already changed their appearances and their numbers were different,
naturally, the other party couldnt recognize them. After casting a fierce re at Kelsey, they left immediately.
Of course, Ste rk, who had been keeping an eye on the others, followed them closely.
As for Clyde Thompsons vice-chairman father, he was also on his way, having been informed by Serena rk.
Next, following the luxurious red carpet.
Not long after, avishly decorated circr hall came into Leo Rays sight.
Upon closer inspection, whether it was therge crystal chandelier iid with Light Crystal Stones, the exquisitendscape wall carvings on the marble walls, or the white stone columns and figurines used for decoration on both sides.
Everywhere exuded a sense of opulence and extravagance.
Lord, the entrance to the auction house is up ahead.
Immediately after, Kelseys crisp voice sounded in Leo Rays ear.
At the end of the hall, a huge door was already open, and both sides were lined with beautiful Trading Conference ceremonial staff. Each of their faces was brimming with bright smiles.
Its no wonder that only nobles and wealthy merchants can enter this ce.
Amongst the crowd, Leo Ray looked at the row of young women with exquisite makeup, revealing outfits, and graceful figures, and nodded slightly without taking a second nce.
Without a doubt, if it had been in his past life, Leo Rays eyes would have probably popped out of their sockets.
But now, for someone who could casually spend millions of Gold Dragons, this obviously wasnt a big scene anymore.
After entering the interior of the auction house, Leo Ray noticed.
At this moment, the surrounding light dimmed immediately, just like entering a movie theater.
At first nce, this underground auction house was incredibly huge, with a circryout.
There were arge number of seats, densely packed and neatly arranged, dividing the hall into two areas.
The back row had theatre-like seats.
The seats in the front row were sofas with tables.
In the center was an auction stage with an appropriate height.
As for the most eye-catching feature of the hall, it was the dark blue dome overhead.
On it were rows of shining Light Crystal Stones, beautifully arrayed.
However, due to the vast size of the hall, the radiance of each Light Crystal Stone bes extremely limited.
It looks like a starry sky, twinkling and dazzling, giving people a sense of exhration.
Lord, please watch your step and follow me, Kellys gentle voice rang in Leo Rays ear again.
Thus, following the spacious staircase all the way down, the three of them finally stopped at the second-row seats near the front auction stage.
This position was carefully discussed between Leo Ray and Kelly beforehand.
From here, he could clearly see the auction items on stage and, being in the second row, his seat would not be too conspicuous C it was perfect.
Looking at the luxurious velvet sofa in front of him, Leo Ray slightly bent down and sat down.
Scarlett, sitting not far from Leo Ray, was curiously looking around.
In the spacious andfortable space, Leo Ray felt the soft touch of the luxurious sofa while looking at the exquisite champagne, mouth-watering fruits, and pastries ced on the round table in front of him.
Leo Rays gaze fell on the noble families and businessmen who were gradually sitting in the rows behind him, looking somewhat crowded. He couldnt help but sigh.
It must be said that in this sword and magic parallel world, the privileges he enjoyed as a high-ranking nobleman were intoxicating.
Lord, I will excuse myself for a while, Kelly approached and whispered respectfully.
Without a doubt, the once arrogant and hot-tempered youngdy had be docile as a rabbit in front of Leo Ray.
Go ahead, he waved his hand casually, his gaze falling back on the crowd who were taking their seats.
First to be seated, Tina, the leader of the Blue Rose Knights, and several Tier 3 Powerhouses d in knight attire.
Her seat was in the third row of the box area, just to the left rear of Leo Ray.
At this distance, Leo Ray could clearly see the crystal ne that Tina wore around her slender neck.
Then, Layne, the leader of the Broken de Knights, sat down.
His teamposition was almost identical to Tinas.
Moreover, there was a box seat between the two of them; the moment Layne took his seat, Leo Ray heard two disdainful snorts from behind him.
This action caused the Tier 2 Peak-level obese nobleman seated between them to shudder, hastily taking a sip of the champagne on the table to calm his nerves.
As expected, the rtionship between these two knights is far from harmonious.
Leo Ray noticed this and smirked.
As for Mason Banks, Abigail, and Amelia, they were seated in the fifth row, in thest box area, diagonally across from Leo Ray.
And so, after about twenty minutes,
Under the slightly dim light, all the nobles around Leo Ray took their seats, filling the spacious venue to the brim.
Ding-ling-ling.
A crisp and pleasant wind chime sound rang out.
Immediately, an upright figure, embraced by several etiquette personnel, slowly emerged from the unique underground passage in the middle of the auction stage.
There was no doubt; the auction was about to begin.
Seeing this, Leo Ray perked up and his face couldnt help but reveal a hint of anticipation..

As the ethereal and prating sound of the silver bell gradually faded, the previously somewhat noisy venue also quieted down ordingly.
At this moment, the gazes of everyone present were simultaneously cast towards the center of the auction stage, with curiosity or burning enthusiasm in their eyes.
On the other side, the upright figure, surrounded by several beautiful etiquette staff, slowly became clear, revealing a tall, thin, middle-aged man with curly facial hair.
He was dressed in a neatly fitted ck tailcoat, with a ck bow tie at the cor of his white shirt, exuding an elegant and dignified demeanor.
Esteemed guests, good afternoon, and wee to the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conferences Starry Sky Auction House. I am your auctioneer, Baron Poli.
At this moment, on behalf of His Excellency the Lord of Viennas City, His
Excellency the Master of the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, His Excellency the Master of the Viennas City Mercenary Guild, and His Excellency the Master of the Viennas City Businessmen Guild, I would like to extend our most distinguished respects and greetings to all of our esteemed guests!
With a maic and sonorous voice, the middle-aged auctioneer named Poli elegantly bowed and performed a standard gentlemans salute before announcing, Now, I dere that the Viennas City Joint Auction officially begins!
Upon hearing this, the nobles and businessmen in the audience apuded thunderously, expressing their respect for the organizers.
Lord, this is my uncle, who is a very close friend of my fathers and takes good care of me usually.
Kelsey, who had left for a while, somehow returned to Leo Rays side.
She quietly introduced, At the same time, he is also the Chief Appraiser and Chief Auctioneer of the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, as well as a side member of the Sanders Family. He is one of our own.
Leo Ray slightly nodded, smelling the delicate fragrance emanating from her body and noticing that Kelsey had changed out of her neat red outfit and was now wearing a simple, girlish red princess dress.
Her every move exuded apletely different style, along with a sense of refined elegance.
By the way, my Lord, my uncle is also a Tier 3, 5-star Starlight Magician. He was in charge of designing and constructing the Starry Sky Auction House.
Smiling happily, Baron Poli continued, The starting price for this Tier 1 Body
Strengthening Pill is 2000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum bid increment of
100 Gold Dragons. Please begin bidding.
As Kelsey was speaking, a faint golden hexagram-shaped magic circle slowly lit up on the spacious auction tform opposite.
Immediately after, an almost dazzling light shed and an erged identical projection of the auction tform appeared in mid-air above the tform, much like a holographic projection.
The clear images of the middle-aged gentleman Poli and the etiquettedies on the holographic projection bowed to the audience in unison.
Wow, I didnt expect to see such a technologically advanced scene in this world.
Gazing at the high-definition magic projection before him, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a slightly surprised expression.
Murmuring to himself, he said, No wonder the auction house was built sorge. With this, even those in the back row can clearly see the details of the auction items.
While Leo Ray pondered, another etiquette staff member stepped out from an independent passage on the auction tform, holding a tray covered with a golden silk cloth in her hand.
That should be the first auction item, right? I wonder what it is.
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was seated in the front row, slightly nodded, revealing a curious expression.
Indeed, just as Leo Ray had anticipated, Baron Poli, the auctioneer, gracefully received the tray, gently lifted the silk cloth, and a small brocade box appeared before everyone.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is called a Body Strengthening Pill, a Tier 1 Magic Medicine. Its effect is to increase the strength of an ordinary person at Tier 1 by two to three stars.
This magic medicine must be a childhood memory for most of you, right? Do you still remember the unknown feeling of excitement and anticipation when you first took it?
With an elegant smile, Baron Poli opened the brocade box to disy the contents while continuing his introduction, Although this Tier 1 magic medicine has lost its potency for the vast majority of guests present, it is perfect as a birthday gift for your children, or as a present for friends and rtives children during their full moon celebration. Not only can it showcase your high-end taste, but it also serves as a symbol of status and identity. It is arguably one of the most sought-after types of Tier 1 magic medicines.
By the way, this auction only has this one reserve. Please do not hesitate to spend your Gold Dragons.
Smiling happily, Baron Poli continued, The starting price for this Tier 1 Body
Strengthening Pill is 2000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum bid increment of
100 Gold Dragons. Please begin bidding.
After listening to Baron Polis introduction, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly but didnt show any strong purchasing intent.
Currently, the lowest-ranked subordinates in his territory, even the weakest farmers, had already reached a Tier 1 Nine-Star level of strength..

Moreover, the two alchemists, Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, were able to consistently produce about ten Tier 2 Qi Condensing Pills per day.
As a result, after the upgrade, he could acquire about 500 Tier 2 Qi Condensing Pills and 5 Tier 3 Rose Gathering Energy Pills daily on average.
Therefore, there was no need to really care about Tier 1 Magic Medicine.
As Leo Ray thought about this, there were already multiple bidsing from the auction hall.
However, the sounds mainly came from the back rows of the auction house.
Those high-level nobles who were seated in the front row with Leo Ray, also seemed uninterested in Tier 1 Magic Medicine.
Most of them were just sipping champagne, looking indifferent.
After all, those who could sit in the front row usually had their own territories and even exclusive alchemists as part of the major nobility.
Moreover, these people were quite interested in face-saving, so they wouldnt easilypete with the lower-level nobles for low-level magic potions.
And so, about five minutes passed.
After more than ten rounds of bidding, the price of the Tier 1 Body Strengthening Pill was set at 4900 Gold Dragon Coins.
So cheap? Well, lets just get the first kill then, its not a big deal anyway.
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was not particrly interested, couldnt help but nod slightly, signaling Scarlett to press the silver device on the table simr to a food ordering bell.
In an instant, the crisp sound of a silver bell rang, and the attention of the surrounding audience was all focused on Leo Ray.
By this time, those who knew the market clearly understood that the current price had far exceeded the market value of this Tier 1 Magic Medicine.
Moreover, as a high-level noble seated in the front row area, it seemed too disgraceful topete with those in the back rows for a Tier 1 Magic Medicine, right?
As for the strange looks cast by the surrounding people, Leo Ray naturally didnt care.
First of all, whether it was a qualitative or quantitative change after the upgrade, the value he could gain would be far greater than the value paid.
Secondly, he simply didnt care about these self-proimed high-level nobles.
It would be like walking on the street and an ant casting a contemptuous look at you; there was no way that anyone would stare back, right?
Lastly, by taking advantage of these appearances, he could subtly show off his wealth, and attract the attention of his two target individuals: Tina from the Blue Rose Knights and Layne from the Broken de Knights.
Furthermore, letting them take the initiative to get to know him would also be a good method.
So, this Tier 1 Body Strengthening Magic Pill belongs to the gentleman at table number 8!
Immediately, Baron Poli bowed slightly towards Leo Rays direction, announcing the ownership of the first auction item.
Next, a dazzling array of Tier 1 Magic Medicines and Tier 2 Exquisite
Equipment, which served as warm-up auction items, came one after another.
Having sessfully won the first auction item, Leo Ray then continued to buy many Tier 1 Magic Medicines, either by bidding himself or signaling Mason Banks in the back row.
In this process, watching these magic potions worth thousands of Gold Dragon Coins, Leo Ray couldnt help but feel a bit emotional for a moment.
FYI, in this world, an ordinary civilians monthly ie was merely a few Gold Dragon Coins.
Even the mostmon Tier 1 Magic Medicine would be something they couldnt afford in their entire lives.
It seemed that these so-called Miracle medicines, apart from their miraculous effects,
would also be considered a miracle if ordinary people could possess them, right?
Speaking of which, as for those Tier 2 Exquisite Equipment, although their appearance,
caused the ordinary nobles and businessmen in the back rows to scramble for them, turning red -faced and neck-swelling in the process,
there was simply no interest for Leo Ray, who couldnt even fit Tier 3 Equipment on his body, so he just skipped them.
Moreover, if he collected all of them, it would be too conspicuous.
As long as he encountered a few more legions simr to the Half-Orcs, he would naturally obtain arge number of low-level equipment.
In this way, after all the warm-up auction items were sold,
Baron Poli on the auction stage received a small ornate box handed over by a nearby attendant.
Then, with a mysterious tone, he spoke, Ladies and gentlemen, now that the warm-up session is over, lets move on to the formal stage of our auction.
With an elegant smile, Baron Poli opened the box and introduced, This item is called an Energy Charging Pill. Its a Tier 2 Magic Drug of top quality. Its function is to directly replenish a certain amount of energy when the users internal energy is exhausted, helping them continue to fight.
At a critical moment in battle, when both enemies and allies are severely injured, this magic drug can often y a decisive role, helping you defeat your opponent in one fell swoop, or escape with your life intact.
There is no need for me to exin its miraculous effects further, right? Of course, since its just a Tier 2 Magic Drug, its outstanding effects only apply to those below Tier 2.
If someone above Tier 3 were to take it, the effects would be greatly diminished, which is its only limitation.
After finishing his speech, Baron Poli slowly and elegantly turned around, continued to disy the item, and said, The reserve price for this item is 10,000 Gold Dragon Coins, with a minimum increase of 500 Gold Dragon Coins each time. Let the bidding begin..

Ding, ding Ding, ding
As Baron Polis voice fell.
Surrounding Leo Ray, the ringing of bells immediately resounded one after another.
Without a doubt, the allure of Tier 2 Magic Medicine was far greater than the Tier 1 Magic Medicine from just a moment ago.
It caused some high-ranking nobles to be unable to hold back, and they began pressing their bells in session.
Of course, this move directly attracted the disdainful gazes of other nobles with even more formidable strength.
Judging by its effect, this magic medicine that can instantly replenish energy is indeed very impressive.
During a stalemate in battle, if used inbination with Recovery Magic Pills, our powerhouses ability to fight continuously would clearly be further
Thinking of this, Leo Ray hesitated no further, signaling Scarlett to ring the silver bell, and joined the bidding crowd.
After about five minutes, the frequency of the ringing bells in the field began to gradually decrease.
Sir at table 8, the bid is 18,500 Gold Dragons. Is there any higher price? Baron Poli nodded slightly towards Leo Rays direction and announced loudly.
Ding, ding.
Immediately after, the sound of a silver bell rang from behind Leo Ray again.
Turning his head slightly, Leo Ray noticed.
The one ringing the bell was the same Tier 2 Peak Level fat noble from before.
Seeing the other partys resolute expression, Leo Ray nodded at Scarlett.
On the other side, Scarlett understood and gently tapped her finger on the bell, quickly pressing it twice, undoubtedly meaning that they had directly raised the price gap by 1,000 Gold Dragons.
Seeing this, the surrounding nobles with buying intentions all helplessly shook their heads.
Although the magic medicine had remarkable effects, it was still a Tier 2, and it wasnt of much use for the majority of Tier 3 Powerhouses in the front row.
Moreover, the current price was already somewhat too high, so the other bidders gave up one after another.
Among them, only the Tier 2 Peak Level fat noble behind Leo Ray still felt a little unwilling. He gritted his teeth and rang the silver bell once more.
Seeing his clenched teeth, Leo Ray couldnt help but raise an eyebrow, curiously pressing it himself, bringing the current price to 21,000 Gold Dragons.
Without a doubt, this amount of Gold Dragons was not a big deal for Leo Ray.
However, the corners of the fat nobles mouth twitched involuntarily, and he couldnt help but frown.
Though the fat noble carried several hundred thousand Gold Dragons with him,
the auction had only just started, and there would undoubtedly be many higher-level itemster on. Spending money here now seemed somewhat premature.
However, this Tier 2 Magic Medicine was perfect for his use Thinking of this, the fat noble hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and pressed the bell once more.
As Leo Ray watched the other partys conflicted expression, he smiled faintly and once again rang the silver bell without hesitation.
At present, he had more than two million Gold Dragons with him.
Furthermore, there were still 30 Tier 2 Magic Medicines and 30 Tier 3
Equipments C a total of 60 auction items left to be auctioned off.
In addition, ording to Kelsey, there were also three million Gold Dragons in reserve at the Trading Conferences treasury, avable whenever needed.
Therefore, he naturally didnt need to worry about funds.
In this way, after several back-and-forths.
Once the amount settled at 28,000 Gold Dragons.
The trembling fat hand of the noble finally did not fall again, only ring at Leo Rays back for a moment before helplessly shaking his head.
His strength was only at the Tier 2 Peak Level, and he had only one Tier 3 Powerhouse as his bodyguard.
Not only had Leo Ray achieved Tier 3, but he also had Scarlett and Kelsey, two Tier 3 Powerhouses by his side.
Therefore, the fat noble naturally did not dare to confront Leo Ray face-to-face, only venting his frustration at Leos back.
Congrattions to the sir at table 8 for securing the ownership of the Tier 2
Magic Medicine Energy Charging Pill!
Next, as the auctioneer, Baron Poli brought out another round and wless red Tier 2 Magic Medicine.
Leo Ray learned through the introduction that this magic medicine was called zing me Pills, possessing the miraculous effect of temporarily enhancing the power of spells for Tyro Mages.
On the other hand, Scarlett, who was attentively eating arge pineapple, immediately perked up upon hearing the effects of the magic medicine. She wiped her mouth while looking over with an eager expression.
Seeing this, Leo Ray helplessly shook his head and eventually acquired it for 23,000 Gold Dragons.
After this, Leo Ray and Mason Banks from another group jointly acquired three more healing-type Tier 2 Magic Medicines.
In no time, a familiar exquisite brocade box appeared in Baron Polis hand.
This magic medicine is called the Wind Eye Pill. ording to the joint appraisal of the three senior appraisers of the Trading Conference, it originally came from a distant Elf realm.
Not only can it temporarily enhance the users vision, but more importantly, it can directly see through the illusions below Tier 2 and has a decent effect on breaking illusions above Tier 3.
Baron Poli elegantly stroked his own curling mustache while he showcased the plump and smooth magic pill in his hand and continued, You should know that the Illusionist profession, although rare, almost restrains all other upations.
Moreover, within our Coldme Domain, there are also quite a few Illusion Realm areas left over from ancient times. Countless powerhouses have identally entered them throughout history, and very few have left unscathed.
Therefore, this Wind Eye Pill is definitely one of the must-have medicines for powerhouses who love adventure. In times of crisis, this small magic pill can not only save you from the Illusion Realm but also save your friends and family as well.
Do I need to mention the countless other benefits?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray was stunned for a moment and then revealed a bitter smile, silently giving him a thumbs up.
Undoubtedly, this Wind Eye Pill was one of the auction items he had provided.
No wonder hes a professional auctioneer. After hearing his description, even I, the owner of nearly 200 Wind Eye Pills, want to buy them back.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray couldnt help but purse his lips slightly.
A magic medicine from the Elf Tribe?! Breaks through the illusion effect?!
And enhances vision?!
On the other side, after hearing Baron Polis introduction, the vast auction house began to boil for the first time..

Gazing at the increasingly heated atmosphere in the venue.
Leo Ray lightly swirled the high-stemmed ss in his hand, the rose-colored liquid inside rippling gently.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, a discreet smirk of satisfaction appearing on his face.
It was quite an unexpected surprise that a magic medicine he casually brought out could cause such an intense bidding war.
As he took in the sweet fragrance wafting from the ss, Leo Rays gaze unintentionally fell on Scarlett nearby.
Seeing her also looking very excited.
Her anticipation seemed even stronger than the rest of the guests at the adjoining tables.
Just as Leo Ray wondered in astonishment if Scarlett had finally caught on and was ready to execute her own bidding n, he noticed that her eyes were fixated on a ceremonial attendant nearby, holding a tray.
And on that tray were none other than the red velvet cake and pineapple bun she had been craving.
With a helpless nce, just as Leo Ray pondered how many chestnuts to reward Scarlett withter, Baron Poli, standing on the auction stage, elegantly smiled at the nobles below before continuing, In addition, I have some exciting news I cant wait to share with you all.
This time there is more than one Wind Eye Pill avable, but still in limited quantity, so seize this opportunity, as the one you bid on might be thest.
As Baron Poli spoke, a cunning glint shed through his eyes, but he didnt disclose the exact number of pills provided by Leo Ray.
Yet he managed to ratchet up the tension andpetitiveness among everyone present, showcasing his true professionalism.
Quickly following, Baron Poli stroked his curled mustache before announcing, Alright, without further ado, the starting bid for each Wind Eye Pill is 11,000 gold dragons, with increments of 500 gold dragons. Please begin bidding.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the ringing of bells around Leo Ray intensified.
The atmosphere had reached its peak since the start of the auction.
Of course, during this process, Leo Ray and Mason Banks, not far away, joined the bidding nobles as nned.
About seven or eight minutester, the clear sound of ringing bells gradually began to quiet.
At this point, Leo Ray nced around to find that the only ones still ringing the bell were his table, Mason Banks table, and the fat aristocrat.
The price had also soared to a staggering 33,000 gold dragons.
Seeing that the price was about right, Leo Ray gave a slight nod to Mason Banks, signaling him to stop bidding.
Next, he continued to raise the price while discreetly observing the expression of the fat aristocrat.
Now, Leo Ray was fully aware.
The higher the final price, the greater the benefit he would gain.
With 59 auction items behind him, even if he only raised the price of each piece by 10,000 gold dragons, he could still make an extra 600,000 gold dragons in total.
Moreover, the final price of the first Wind Eye Pill would greatly influence the prices of the next nine pills.
Therefore, this first shot must be as loud and impactful as possible.
On the other side, the fat aristocrat was now determined topete with Leo Ray until the bitter end, a disdainful expression apparent on his plump face.
Not bad, keep it going. This Wind Eye Pill will finally belong to you.
As Leo Ray took note of the fat aristocrats determined expression, he silently praised him inwardly and continued to press the bell on the table without any outward reaction.
Soon enough, only Leo Ray and the aristocrat were left in thepetition, with the price reaching 39,000 gold dragons.
At this point, despite the aristocrats plump face dripping with sweat, he remained unyielding and very keen. As soon as Leo Rays bell rang, he immediately pressed his own, glowering at Leo Ray from behind.
Impressive, looks like hes getting really worked up now.
Recognizing this, the ever-dramatic Leo Ray feigned embarrassment on his face, even asionally ncing back.
On the other hand, the fat aristocrat, keenly observing the change in Leo Rays expression, fought even harder, pressing the bell twice in a row at one point.
Thus, after an intense back-and-forth between the two, the price finally reached 50,000 gold dragons.
Leo Ray eventually relented, and the fat aristocrat secured the first Wind Eye Pill triumphantly.
Not bad at all. ording to Orion Wolfe, the alchemist who crafted the Wind Eye Pill, the value of one pill is around 15,000 gold dragons.
If the fat aristocrat knew hed paid three times the price, only to have the money ultimately fall into hispetitors pocket, he would probably faint from anger.
Leo Ray nced back at the fat aristocrat, his face beaming with the pride of a winner, and couldnt help but sneer in his heart.
On the other side, noticing Leo Rays unwilling gaze, the fat aristocrat plumped up his chest in triumph, clearly still reveling in his victory over Leo
Ray..

Not wanting to disturb the other partys dreams any further, Leo Ray gathered his energy, sipped on the champagne in his tall ss, and began to focus on the auction below.
Scarlett, on the other hand, had just stuffed thest pineapple bun into her mouth, then contentedly patted her full stomach, as if finally satisfied.
As for Kelsey, in order to divert attention from herself, she went to visit other familiar nobles and started to greet them, trying her best to disperse the gazes focused on her.
To our esteemed guests, so now, let us begin bidding on the second Wind Eye
Pill.
Baron Poli smiled and brought out another identical magic medicine at the auction stage.
After this, through the increasingly skilled intervention of Leo Rays two groups.
The price for each subsequent Wind Eye Pill reached over 40,000 Gold Dragons.
During this process, several other nobles who hadntpeted with Leo Ray before saw the fat noble seeding and ring up with hope. Theyunched a price attack on Leo Ray, attempting to regain their dignity.
In the end, they all went away satisfied, each holding a Wind Eye Pill, as they achieved their aim to clear their previous humiliation and gave Leo Ray abundant profits as well.
What was somewhat amusing was that, during thest few bids, seeing Leo Ray losing repeatedly
the fat noble in the back row even had a second wind, after having a sessful, self-satisfied price tug-of-war with Leo Ray.
He obtained the second Wind Eye Pill for 52,000 Gold Dragons, setting a new transaction record and contributing even more Gold Dragons to Leo Ray.
Also, during this process
The two targets that Leo Ray needed to win over, Tina of the Blue Rose Knights and Layne of the Broken de Knights, began to lose patience and pressed their silver bells.
For independent knight orders like them, who often need to go on missions
This kind of magic medicine, which can see through illusion effects, is obviously a rare treasure.
Noticing both of his targets entering bidding frenzies
Leo Ray slightly smiled and then gave up fighting, allowing the two of them to each obtain a Wind Eye Pill at the lowest price.
For Leo Rays act of goodwill, both knightmanders immediately understood, nodding at Leo Ray in a show of gratitude.
Just like that, as the ten Wind Eye Pills finished being auctioned off
What followed were his additional ten Recovery Magic Pills and ten slightly inferior Ice Returning Pills.
However, under Baron Polis significant introduction, the Recovery Magic Pills, which elerated magic power recovery, were described as a weapon against physical powerhouses.
The Ice Returning Pills, which increased fire resistance and detoxified fire poison, became the bane of Tyro Mages, immediately attracting the attention of many high-ranking nobles and wealthy businessmen.
With Leo Ray fanning the mes from behind
The price for each magic medicine ranged between 30,000 and 40,000 Gold Dragons, reaching what Leo Ray considered a very reasonable price.
Next, as all of his magic medicine was cleared out, Baron Poli, who had been elegantly pacing on the auction stage, continued to showcase five other Tier 2 Magic Drugs.
Among them, besides the three healing magic drugs, there was a Holy Light Pill that could enhance the effects of light healing spells, and an Earth Rock Pill that could enhance the effects of earth spells, which were both sessfully acquired by Leo Ray and Mason Banks.
At this point, Leo Ray had acquired a total of 10 Tier 1 Magic Medicines and 10
Tier 2 Magic Medicines.
With the Gold Dragons spent on these 20 Magic Medicines, I still have more than 800,000 Gold Dragons left, so I made a small profit.
As Leo Ray thought of this and put down his wine ss
On the other side, Baron Poli on the auction stage took a small brocade box and then mysteriously smiled, Esteemed guests, this is thest item of this auction, please do not miss it.
Thest item?
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow, his face contemtive.
At this stage, the other thirty Tier 3 pieces of equipment hadnt appeared yet.
It seems they were arranged for the next auction.
ording to Kelsey, although there are three auctions today, the first two have various equipment, magic medicines, magic medicine materials, and other items that are useful to me.
Thest auction is exclusively for artwork, and almost all of it is counterfeit.
Even many of the bidders present are impersonating the Lord of Viennas City.
It is only to attract powerful individuals from the mysterious organization. There is no real auctioning taking ce, which means there are only two auctions for me to truly participate in.
As for the evening auction, naturally, it will be wholeheartedly focused on snatching that mysterious Ancient Chest.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray frowned slightly and continued pondering: At present, many of the high-ranking nobles and wealthy merchants in the front row have not made a move..

From this, it can be seen that the real good items should all be concentrated in the next auction. However, since it is the finale of the first auction, there should be some surprises, right?
Looking at the brocade box not far away that was clearly different from the Magic Medicine, a curious expression appeared on Leo Rays face.
At the same time, Baron Poli on the auction stage had already slowly opened the exquisite brocade box in his hand.
The next second, through the giant Magic Projection floating above the auction stage, everyone in the venue saw the item inside for the first time.
What caught everyones eyes was a ring emitting a bright golden light. Upon closer inspection, the surface of the ring was flickering with a faint iridescence.
asionally, a strange energy wave would emanate from it. Spatial energy fluctuations?
Realizing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and revealed an enlightened expression, murmuring to himself: So its a Storage Ring. At this thought, Leo Rays eyes began to heat up.
In this world, items with storage space are extremely convenient.
However, due to their rarity, he did not have arge reserve of them.
There is no doubt that if his main powerhouse subordinates could each have a Storage Ring, they could conveniently store their high-grade weapons, everyday items like Illusion Cloaks and readily use them at any time.
Moreover, each person could store some items that are needed during battle, such as healing Magic Medicine and attack spell scrolls.
In this way, it would be much more convenient than Leo Ray himself taking them out and distributing them to everyone when needed.
If I buy this Storage Ring, once it undergoes a quantitative change after being upgraded, my goal will naturally be achieved! It seems that I must get this Storage Ring.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, Baron Poli on the auction stage began to introduce the item with an elegant smile, Ladies and gentlemen, this item is surely as familiar as the first one on the auction floor, right?
This is a Storage Ring meticulously crafted by a Tier 4 Space Mage of the Kingdom. It is a brand-new item that has not been recognized by a master. Due to its construction from Sacred Meteor Gold, which is in perfect harmony with space magic, the storage space inside is 50 cubic meters, far exceeding that of ordinary storage rings.
As a result, the base price for this Storage Ring is 200,000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum increase of 10,000 Gold Dragons per bid. Please do not miss out and start bidding.
As soon as Baron Polis voice fell, the sound of silver bells rang incessantly around Leo Ray.
It seemed that as the finale of the first auction, this Storage Ring with its considerable capacity had indeed attracted a lot of interest.
Noticing this, Leo Ray touched the Storage Bracelet on his wrist, which had a space of 10,000 cubic meters, and began to look around without rushing to bid.
At this point, although the silver bell sounds in the front-row area and the shouting in the back-row area were continuous, the Senior Aristocrats who Kelsey had introduced earlier, led by the newly-promoted Tier 4 Grand Elder of the ckwood n, were still calm andposed.
Either they closed their eyes and meditated, or they sipped their drinks. They clearly had no intention of participating in thepetition.
It makes sense. These ancient and long-standing aristocratic families, whetherrge or small, all possess inherited Storage Rings, a fact which can be seen from Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe.
For them, spending hundreds of thousands of Gold Dragons on buying equipment or other precious items would be much more useful than having another Storage Ring. This is the so-called family heritage. However, it also provides them with an excuse for blind arrogance and decay.
At this thought, Leo Ray shrugged and refocused on the bidding for the first finale item.
In the midst of the continuous ringing of silver bells, the price of the Storage Ring gradually climbed to the height of 400,000 Gold Dragons.
During this process, Leo Ray noticed that the plump Aristocrat behind him was also following with a yearning face, pressing the bell several times.
However, with the gradual increase in price, the sweat on his forehead also increased, and he eventually had to give up reluctantly.
Both Knight Captain Tina and Knight Captain Layne on either side of him chose not to bid as well.
From the looks of it, they were obviously nning to save their money for the more exciting auction toe.
Seeing that the targets he needed to win over had no desire to purchase, Leo Ray naturally had no qualms and calmly rang the silver bell, advancing relentlessly through thepetition.
In this way, when the price settled at 550,000 Gold Dragons, there was only Leo Ray left in the field.
So, congrattions once again to our distinguished guest in seat number 8 for winning the ownership of this Storage Ring!
The resonating, maic voice of Baron Poli rang out once more.
At this moment, seeing Leo Rays sessful bid of 550,000 Gold Dragons for the Storage Ring, the Fat Aristocrat in the back row couldnt help but scratch his head, feeling that something was not quite right. He seemed to have done something foolish in this first auction.
Perplexed, he blinked his small eyes but couldnt figure out what was wrong after careful deliberation, and ultimately gave up in frustration.
Subsequently, after Baron Poli announced the end of the first auction, Leo Ray breathed a slight sigh of relief and his face showed a satisfied expression.
During this first auction, he had sessfully obtained 20 Magic Medicines and the final finale item, the Storage Ring. Moreover, he not only didnt spend any money but also earned nearly 300,000 Gold Dragons. It was quite a good result.
I wonder what kind of items will appear in the second auction that many of the high-ranking aristocrats in the venue value highly?
At this thought, an expression of anticipation appeared on Leo Rays face once
more..

Thus, after the first auction ended, as it was already approaching evening.
There was less than an hour left before the start of the second auction.
As a result, the vast Starry Sky Auction Houses interior and exterior promptly transformed into a massive banquet hall.
Many charming maids wearing high heels, walking elegantly, began to shuttle between the clusters of nobles and wealthy merchants dressed in luxurious clothes.
They provided these highly esteemed individuals with exquisite and delicious food and drinks.
Not to mention, on each of the maids exquisitely made-up faces, there was a radiant smile, with an attitude that was both hardworking and courteous.
There was no doubt that if these noble individuals were pleased, they might casually reward them with some Gold Dragons, which would be a considerable sum for women ofmon origins.
Furthermore, a lucky few might catch the eye of these influential people and be like a phoenix soaring to a higher position which was not an impossible scenario.
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was seated in the front row area, shrugged his shoulders slightly.
After a young maid with delicate features and good development carefully and meticulously cleared his table,
The indifferent Leo Ray casually tossed a Gold Dragon into her tray.
tter.
The crisp sound of coins colliding was pleasing to the ear.
The glittering golden light reflected the young maids astonished and delighted fair face.
After that, not long after the grateful young maid had left, Kelsey, wearing a proper red dress, arrived, lifting her skirt.
She first adjusted her hair bun, then approached Leo Ray and said respectfully,
Lord, Ive already handed over the auction items and the remaining Gold
Dragons. Please head over to check and ept them.
Very well.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray stood up from the sofa and followed Kelseys guidance towards the outside of the auction house.
At the same time, Taylor, Linda, and Bianca White, who had been hiding under invisibility cloaks, as well as Mason Banks, Abigail, and Amelia at another nearby table, all followed suit.
It is worth mentioning that when Leo Ray passed by Tina from the Blue Rose
Knights and Layne from the Broken de Knights,
These two skilled knights both nodded in acknowledgment, apparently having developed a good impression of Leo Ray.
Upon returning to the luxurious reception room, Leo Ray found that the floor was neatly filled with dozens of glittering gold boxes and a series of exquisite brocade boxes were neatly arranged on a high-quality wooden table.
Lord, these are the items and Gold Dragons we have obtained at this auction, said Kelsey, bowing to Leo Ray as she introduced them: A total of 286,000
Gold Dragons, ten Tier 1 Magic Medicines, ten Tier 2 Magic Medicines, and one Storage Ring.
Well done.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray waved his hand to gather all the items in front of him into his bag.
Without any hesitation, he proceeded to upgrade directly.
Following that, a series of pleasant prompt sounds began to echo in Leo Rays ears.
[Congrattions, your Tier 1 Magic Medicine: Body Strengthening Pill has
been upgraded to Tier 1 Magic Medicine: Body Strengthening Pill 105!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine: Energy Charging Pill has been upgraded to Tier 2 Magic Medicine: Energy Charging Pill 103!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine: zing me Pills has been upgraded to Tier 2 Magic Medicine: zing me Pills 102!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine: Earth Rock Pill has been upgraded to Tier 2 Magic Medicine: Earth Rock Pill 105!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine: Holy Light Pill has been upgraded to Tier 2 Magic Medicine: Holy Light Pill 100!]
After upgrading all twenty Magic Medicines in one breath, Leo Ray noticed upon inspection,
Initially, among the ten Tier 1 Magic Medicines, besides the first Body Strengthening Pill, the remaining were all of the healing type.
After upgrading, including that Body Strengthening Pill within the five, all experienced quantitative change, while the remaining five experienced qualitative change.
This meant that Leo Ray gained a total of over 100 Body Strengthening Pills, over 400 Tier 1 Healing Magic Medicines, and five Tier 2 Healing Magic Medicines,
Secondly, among the ten Tier 2 Magic Medicines, the Energy Charging Pill, zing me Pills, Earth Rock Pill, and Holy Light Pill had all experienced quantitative change, each amounting to over 100.
Meanwhile, the other six Tier 2 Healing Magic Medicines all underwent qualitative change, upgrading to Tier 3 Healing Magic Medicines.
Not bad. Besides these new Magic Medicines that underwent quantitative changes, my current Healing Magic Medicine reserves have not only increased by 410 Tier 1 pills, but also reached 343 Tier 2 pills, and as high as 10 Tier 3 pills, nodded Leo Ray with satisfaction.
With a thought, the new space ring with a faintly iridescent glimmer appeared in his hand.
Stroking the smooth ring body crafted from a mysterious metal, Leo Ray first opened the rings attribute column. [Name: Eye of St. Fallen] (Unbound) [Grade: Tier 3 ? Excellent (Blue)]
[Defensive Strength: None]
[Additional Effect: Space on Finger C Ultimate Any object without life signs can be stored and retrieved at will, with a space capacity of 50 cubic meters]
[Note: A storage ring meticulously crafted by the famous Tier 4 Space Mage of
Coldme, it is extremely valuable and an absolute status symbol for nobility..

It is also one of themon items for the upper-ss nobility to show off to each other.]
Indeed, it is a space of 50 cubic meters, which is obviously enough for the daily life and battles of the strong ones under mymand.
After closing the attribute column, he felt the dazzling ring shing with different colors and the slight coolnessing from its surface.
Leo Ray took a deep breath and started the upgrade without hesitation.
Immediately, a familiar prompt entered his ears.
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 essory: Holy Meteor Eye has been upgraded to a Tier 3 essory: Holy Meteor Eye XIOO!]
Perfect! It has indeed met the expected goal!
Hearing this, a smile of joy appeared on Leo Rays face, and he nodded satisfactorily.
At this point, his first auction could be said to havee to a perfect end.
Next, Leo Ray immediately gathered his subordinates, Taylor, Linda, Mason Banks, Abigail, Amelia, Scarlett, Bianca White, and Kelsey, in front of him.
With a wave of his hand, he gave each one of them a storage ring that was glittering with different colors.
Thank you very much, my Lord!
On the other hand, after receiving the rings handed over by Leo Ray, the subordinates all showed a thrilled expression on their faces, saluting him in unison.
Youre wee. Take these items too. Use them at your discretion in critical moments.
Following that, Leo Ray waved his hand again, filling the entire wooden table with various magic medicines, magical scrolls, and other valuable items.
For a moment, the long redwood table was surrounded by a colorful and dazzling array of items that made people dizzy.
Everyone present couldnt help but feel a refreshing fragrance.
It was the intoxicating scent of Gold Dragon.
In the end, under Leo Rays overwhelming generosity, each of his subordinates in attendance got an Illusion Cloak, a Concealment Ring, five Tier 1 Healing Potions, five Tier 2 Healing Potions, five Wind Eye Pills, five Ice Returning Pills, two scrolls of Tier 3 Magic Scroll: Advanced me Bomb, Dark Light Burst, and Light Healing Skill, and 10,000 Gold Dragon coins.
Its undeniably, with these items, along with the storage ring itself, that their value has easily exceeded one million Gold Dragon coins. Of course, as for Scarletts long-awaited zing me Pills that could enhance the effects of fire magic, Leo Ray gave her 30 of them right away. With this, each of my main followers now has a 50-cubic-meter storage space and plenty of reserve items, so they can handle adventures, battles, and battlefields more skillfully in the future!
Amid the gratitude of his subordinates, Leo Ray couldnt help but breathe a sigh of relief as he nodded in satisfaction once more.
After all was settled and done, Kelsey prepared a sumptuous dinner, and Leo Rays party began feasting in the luxurious reception hall.
During this process, because their surveince target Clyde Thompson and his son were still in the same location at the Starry Sky Auction House, there had been no unusual movements yet.
Therefore, Leo Ray ordered Serena and Ste to take turnsing back to eat, and he gave each of them a brand new storage ring and various other reserves as well.
So far, ten of Leo Rays main followers havepleted the task of equipping storage rings.
My Lord, its almost time. The second auction is about to start.
In the spacious reception room, after putting thest bite of soft cheesecake in her mouth,
Kelsey, happily touching the newly obtained storage ring on her green finger, walked gracefully to Leo Ray and said.
Well, lets go.
Hearing this, Leo Ray put down the empty teacup in his hand and nodded slightly.
As he finished speaking, an expression of anticipation appeared on Leo Rays face.
There was no doubt that the uing second auction was the real highlight.
After all, those rich and powerful nobles had not yet taken action.
Yes, my Lord!
On the other hand, the surrounding strong subordinates saluted and responded in unison.
Returning to the Starry Sky Auction House, Leo Ray noticed that the banquet here had ended.
Most of the nobles and wealthy merchants had returned to their seats, either holding champagne or eating dessert,ughing and talking with each other.
Only young maids, either holding a cloth or a broom, were still busy with the final cleaning work.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded to Mason Banks and others nearby.
He led Scarlett, Kelsey, and the invisible Taylor and others to their seats.
Just as Leo Ray sat down, he saw the figure of Baron Poli, surrounded by several etiquette personnel, reappear on the auction podium.
Ladies and gentlemen, good afternoon. Still standing before you is your most loyal friend, Baron Poli, who loves auctions.
On the podium, the middle-aged gentleman gave a charming smile and elegantly bowed.
He continued, Well, without further ado, I guess you all are more interested in the rare auction items that are about to take the stage than my mediocre handsome face..

After telling a lukewarm joke and livening up the atmosphere, Baron Poli adjusted the ck tie on his white shirt and announced loudly, Now, I dere the start of the second session of the Viennas City Joint Auction!
With the sound of enthusiastic apuse from the audience, Baron Poli then initiated his specialty C Magic Projection.
Suddenly, under the star-speckled deep blue dome, the illusionary and dreamy atmosphere of the Starry Sky Auction House grew even more mesmerizing.
Next, an attendant walked out from the staircase of the auction stage, moving gracefully with professional poise, swaying her waist as she went.
At this point, Leo Ray could clearly see that the attendant was struggling to hold a long sword case in her hands.
Wow, this beautiful attendant has reached the Tier 1 Peak level. She could easily take on two or three ordinary strong men with no problem. However, judging from her somewhat strained expression, the weapon in the sword case must be quite heavy, right?
Feeling the energy emanating from the attendant, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a slightly surprised expression.
On the other side, Baron Poli elegantly took out the weapon from the opened sword case and started to showcase it.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stones embedded in the auction stage, a wide-de sword with a fiery-red body came into view.
Upon closer inspection, this sword was noticeably heavier than the average one-handed sword, and the colorful hue it emitted was slightly red, resembling a weapon freshly taken from a burning forge C it looked quite unique.
As Leo Ray observed this, Baron Poli took hold of the longsword with one hand.
Apanied by a whoosh sound, a fierce me instantly surged up from the swords body.
Numerous sparkles scattered in all directions, illuminating the surrounding area with a red glow amid the flickering firelight.
Seeing this scene, nobles and wealthy merchants in the back rows couldnt help but gasp in admiration.
As you can see, this is a rather special magical weapon. By injecting energy into it, even a physically gifted warrior can unleash the me-enchanted de.
On the auction stage, Baron Poli continued to speak while gently swinging the longsword and tracing a scorching trajectory in mid-air: With this weapon, you will gain an additional means to conquer your enemies in battle.
Its even possible to catch them off guard and defeat them on the spot.
Furthermore, under specific circumstances, this sword can also serve as a torch or fire source, making it an essentialpanion for adventurers. With this magical weapon in hand, you will undoubtedly be the brightest star among your team.
Most importantly, this longsword has already attained Tier 3 Weapon level, and its various benefits are innumerable.
With this, Baron Poli smiled and said, The reserve price for this sword is 30,000 Gold Dragons, and each increase in price is 2,000 Gold Dragons. Please start bidding.
Ding-ling-ling Ding-ling-ling
As soon as Baron Polis voice fell, the sound of ringing silver bells rose and fell around Leo Ray.
Listening to the crisp sounds around him, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a thoughtful expression.
He had previously learned detailed information about magical weapons.
Although these exceptional weapons enable physically strong warriors to wield the magic attached to them, their practicality in battle is not very high.
Firstly, the magic attached to the weapon is weak, making it difficult to break through the energy shields of Tier 3 and higher-level warriors.
Secondly, activating the magic attached to the weapon also consumes a considerable amount of ones energy, rendering the damage dealt disproportionate to the energy used.
As a result, many physically strong warriors disregard this type of magical weapon. With that extra energy, they would rather unleash their unique abilities more often.
Moreover, the energy fluctuations generated by magic can sometimes enable opponents to predict the trajectory of the wielders attacks, resulting in the n backfiring.
Most crucially, magical weapons of the same tier are much more expensive than other weapons, making their cost-performance too low.
However, as Baron Poli said, magical weapons do have some practicality under certain circumstances.
In short, this is a shy yet not very practical, rare, and expensive weapon.
Looking at the ming longsword on stage, Leo Ray continued to ponder, However, since its a rare weapon, I wont miss it, as price is not a problem for me.
With that thought, Leo Ray revealed a faint smile and joined the bidding fray. Thus, after five or six minutes of fiercepetition,
Leo Ray ultimately secured the Tier 3 Magical Longsword at a price of 80,000 Gold Dragons, beating everyone else.
Following this, a series of ordinary Tier 3 Equipment items were sessively presented on stage.
Leo Ray was all too familiar with the vast majority of them since theseprised the 30 items he had provided.
During this process. with his intervention.
each equipment piece exceeded 30,000 Gold Dragons in price, almost two to three times the market value.
After all, for these noble big shots, sometimes face-value mattered more than Gold Dragons.
Among them, a wealthy and plump noble in the back row emerged victorious,
bagging three of his own provided equipment pieces, his round face beaming with joy as he grinned from ear to ear.
Leo Ray, on the other hand, struggled to suppress a smile as he silently praised the man in his mind, just short of awarding him a certificate.
At the same time, Leo Ray sessively won five other non-self-provided Tier 3 Equipment pieces, reaping quite a harvest.
Alright, everyone, the rare items about to be presented on stage are the highlight of this auction. Esteemed guests, make sure to keep your eyes peeled!
Baron Poli said with a grin, slowly opening another narrowly-shaped brocade box and adding mysteriously,
For example, this precious item is a scroll that seals a rare Magic Martial Art:
Lightning Wind Chaser sh!
A Magic Martial Art?
Upon hearing this, a look of both shock and delight crossed Leo Rays face..

Chapter 312: Chapter 303: The Second Finale Item (5K) 1
Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, the look of surprise and delight on Leo Rays face was beyond words.
Without a doubt, for someone who practices Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation like him.
This auction item was nothing short of tailor-made!
Looking at the slightly glowing purple scroll that was slowly revealing itself from Baron Polis hand not far away,
Leo Ray sipped the sweet fruit wine passed by Scarlett in excitement, revealing a thoughtful expression.
As he understood more about this world, he knew clearly.
Creating such Skill Scrolls and Magic Potion Forms required both difficult and tedious processes.
Not only the maker needed to be well-versed in the skill itself and reach a high level of mastery,
but also a great amount of time and special energy maniption methods were required to etch every aspect of the skill onto a special scroll.
And this production process often took years toplete, consuming much of the makers energy.
During these long years, a powerful person with extraordinary skills could teach others in a more convenient way as well.
Thus,pared to humans,
Skill Scrolls tended to be more popr among the Elf Tribe, the Dwarf n, and other races with longer lifespans.
There was a saying that the production method of Skill Scrolls originated from these other races and then spread to the human world.
Because of this, in the various Human countries, Skill Scrolls were extremely rare and priced very high.
However, even though its effects were magical, allowing one to grasp a new skill instantly,
Most powerful people still preferred to slowly learn from a master and gain more practical knowledge.
After all, if converted to the times cost,
The time cost of saving money to buy a Skill Scroll was far greater than the time cost of directly learning from a master.
Of course, for someone like Leo Ray who had no shortage of money, the situation was quite the opposite.
A scroll that allowed them to learn a skill instantly was definitely a perfect item!
The most important thing is that this is an extremely rare Magic Martial Art skill, and is perfect for someone like me who practices Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation!
Having thought of this, Leo Ray couldnt help but rub his hands together in excitement.
On the other side, Baron Poli on the auction stage smiled gracefully.
Then spoke, Hehe, well everyone, as the saying goes, rarity makes something precious. As for the rest, there is no need for me to say more.
A Magic Martial Art Skill Scroll, with these two rarebelsbined, is enough to prove the extraordinary value of this item.
Especially for some collection enthusiasts, this is an extremely valuable collectible.
Therefore, the starting price is 100,000 Gold Dragons, with each increment of
5,000 Gold Dragons. Please start bidding.
As Baron Polis words fell, a series of crisp ringing sounds came forth from around Leo Ray.
At this moment, Leo Ray noticed that,
The nobles who pressed their bells were mostly concentrated in the front row
VIP seats
Even those powerful nobles who had never made any move before had be interested.
After all, such Skill Scrolls with Magic Martial Art Skills were extremely rare.
For some nobles who liked to show off, the value of the Skill Scroll as a collection far outweighed its practical use.
Meanwhile, the ordinary nobles and merchants in the back rows could only sigh in envy and shake their heads in frustration.
For those with limited funds, this was undoubtedly an extremely extravagant behavior.
As the price of the Skill Scroll continued to rise to 260,000 Gold Dragons and the rate of increase began to slow down,
Leo Ray finally rang his bell leisurely. In the end, he obtained the Skill Scroll at a final price of 300,000 Gold Dragons.
At the current stage, after all thirty Tier 3 Equipment items Ive just put up for auction,
Excluding the magical weapons and other five Tier 3 Equipment, I have a total of close to 3.2 million Gold Dragons.
Thus, taking out a mere 300,000 Gold Dragons is not an issue. In fact, it feels a bit too cheap.
Just as Leo Ray thought of this leisurely,
His actions once again caused amotion among the nobles around him, eliciting admiration from the crowd.
Undoubtedly, most of the nobles present only carried around 500,000 to 600,000 Gold Dragons.
And Leo Ray had already spent a total of 850,000 Gold Dragons on just a Storage Ring and a Skill Scroll.
Such a huge amount of money was already equal to the total ie of a not-so-small noble family for several years.
Not to mention, buying a Skill Scroll for a sky-high price of 300,000 Gold Dragons that was almost useless
At this moment, looking at the calm Leo Ray,
Only one word filled the minds of these ordinary nobles: Tycoon!
They knew that such an amount of money would be enough to support a
thousand-person garrison team for several years.
At this moment, including Leo Rays two recruitment targets, Tina and Layne, numerous nobles casted their admiring gazes at him while,
On the other side, several powerful nobles including the Grand Elder of
ckwood n, sitting in the front row, looked on with disdainful nces..

Trantor: 549690339
Tsk, nothing more than a young noble profligate who sneaked out to squander wildly.
This attention-seeking youth probably has already spent all the Gold Dragons on him, right?
Well, at least it looks like there will be one less immaturepetitor in the remaining auction.
Now, esteemed guests, please look at the next auction item.
Immediately, Baron Poli took another metal tray.
On the tray were two deep blue, round fruits.
Upon close inspection, the surface of these deep blue fruits was covered with faint golden patterns.
What was even more astonishing was that these golden patterns would asionally sh on their own, looking like an infinitely vast, dreamy starry sky.
These are a pair of freshly picked Star-patterned Fruits.
With a slight smile, Baron Poli took a deep breath, carefully holding the silver te on one hand.
He continued, This miraculous fruit only ripens under a full moon and the most dazzling starlight, growing only on the peaks closest to the starry sky. If not picked on time, it will decay and fall off at dawn, making it extremely precious.
Having said that, Baron Poli first handed the tray to a female etiquette staff member standing beside him.
Then, wearing a white glove, he gently lifted one of the Star-patterned Fruits and turned around to show it off.
To not conceal the truth, Starry Sky Auction Houses design inspirationes precisely from this rare fruit. At the same time, this peculiar fruit is also an essential ingredient for refining some Tier 3 Magic Medicines.
As for this point, I am sure that the Alchemists present here understand the preciousness of this item better than I do.
The moment Baron Poli said this, several aristocrats wearing Alchemist Badges on their chests couldnt help but swallow, nodding their heads and looking at the fruit with passionate eyes.
On the other hand, Leo Rays face was once again filled with a trace of delight as he looked at the peculiar fruit in Baron Polis hand.
This Star-patterned Fruit was one of the essential ingredients in the Tier 3 Magic Medicines Form he possessed, the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill!
It my territory could produce these fruits in bulk, simr to Rose Gatheing Energy Pills, which can permanently increase ones power, and further upgraded
Then, as long as it sessfully transforms into a Tier 4 Magic Pill,bined with the previously acquired Sacred Blessing Pill, my Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses will naturally be able to challenge Tier 4 Powerhouses!
Considering this, Leo Ray, overjoyed, set down the tall ss in his hand and continued pondering.
Right now, thanks to Lindas tireless efforts, Ive already collected more than half of the materials needed to refine the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pills.
However, theres been no news about the primary and most rare ingredient, the Star-patterned Fruit. If I can acquire this pair of Star-patterned Fruits and find the remainingmon ingredients, sess in producing the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pills would be within reach!
At the same time that Leo Ray realized this happily, Baron Poli carefully put the Star-patterned Fruit in his hand back on the tray.
He then smiled and said, The reserve price for this pair of Star-patterned
Fruits is 120,000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum increment of 5,000 Gold Dragons each time. Please start your bidding, everyone.
Immediately, the old white-haired noble Alchemists eagerly pressed their silver bells.
After all, this Star-patterned Fruit was extremely rare in Coldme Kingdom.
Whether it was to personally refine Magic Medicines or as a bartering item, it could be considered a hard currency among the Alchemists.
For an Alchemist, it was indeed a desirable treasure!
Seeing this scene, Leo Ray smiled faintly, then nodded towards Mason Banks who was on standby not far away.
Before, Leo Ray had personallypeted for important items like Storage Rings and Magic Martial Arts.
So, to avoid attracting too much attention, it was Mason Banks turn now.
Mason understood and promptly pressed the silver bell on the table.
Dingling, dingling
Then the ownership of these two Star-patterned Fruits goes to the distinguished guest at table number 25!
Thus, after an intense bell pressingpetition,
Apanied by Baron Polis maic voice, and with the support of Leo Rays strong financial power,
Mason Banks eventually acquired the two Star-patterned Fruits for a price of 250,000 Gold Dragons, sessfully securing them for Leo Ray.
At this moment, the old Alchemists who failed to win the auction red bitterly at Mason Banks, feeling a thousand emotions and being too angry to find a ce to vent.
For ordinary auction items, they couldntpete with the young man at table number 8.
For Alchemy materials, they couldntpete with the equally old and burly man at table number 25.
Did these centuries-old nobles, who were usually high and mighty in their territories,e here to be in charge of ambiance?
Esteemed guests, please prepare yourselves for the next auction item. The following item is one of the highlights of this auction.
On the auction stage, Baron Poli stroked his curled mustache, revealing his signature mysterious smile again.
He took a long wooden tray from the attendant beside him and slowly lifted the golden silk covering it.
The next second, a Magic Wand that shimmered with intense colors appeared
before everyones eyes..

Chapter 314: Chapter 303: The Second Finale Item (5K)
Trantor: 549690339
Upon closer inspection, it was a short, blue metallic magic staff, about a meter long.
At the very top of the staff, a fist-sized, crystal-clear light blue gem was embedded.
What caught the eye the most was a faint coldness emanating from the surface of the blue gem, forming a hazy mist around it, making it appear quite extraordinary.
Because of the staffs extraordinary appearance, it was significantly stronger than the previously presented Tier 3 equipment.
Therefore, it immediately caused a murmur of admiration from the audience below.
As you can see, this is a Tier 4 magic staff forged by a renowned magic craftsman.
Baron Poli smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the surprised expressions of the nobles below.
He continued, Whats even more precious is that a very rare ice gem is embedded in the tip of this staff.
With that, in addition to its basic abilities of amplifying spells and elerating casting speed,
This staff also offers significant amplification effects on ice and water magic.
Moreover, it also has considerable resistance against ice and water magic.
In summary, any magic user who possesses this divine weapon will immediately be the envy of all.
Of course, its price is not cheap.
Baron Poli lightly waved the auction item in his hand for disy as he continued, Now, without further ado, the starting price for this staff is 300,000 Gold Dragons with a minimum increment of 20,000 Gold Dragons each time. Please bid.
Finally, some Tier 4 equipment!
Looking at the fiery gazes of the surrounding nobles, Leo Ray smiled lightly.
For him, who had two Tier 6 weapons, a Tier 5 Rnddel sword, and nearly seventy Tier 4 equipment in his storage space,
This Tier 4 magic staff naturally couldnt elicit his amazement.
However, to be fair, this is still a brand-new, un-upgraded Tier 4 weapon. Regardless of what changes may ur after upgrading, it will be of great help to me now.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray nodded slightly at Mason Banks, listening to the dense ring calls around him, signaling for him to join the bidding crowd. And so, after about five minutes, apanied by a series of crisp sounds, The price of this Tier 4 magic staff had climbed to 600,000 Gold Dragons.
At this point, Leo Ray, who had picked up his tall wine ss again, nced around leisurely while noticing that,
The only ones still bidding, apart from his subordinate Mason Banks, Were the few power nobles led by the elder of the ckwood n.
On the other hand, during this process, seeing that Leo Ray didnt press the bell, the old face of the ckwood n elder revealed a smug smile.
It seemed that the foolish young man was indeed out of money!
Now it was time for them, the high-level nobles and masters, to shine.
However, before the Elder ckwood could be happy for long, he was surprised to find that,
From somewhere unknown, a burly old man had appeared at table 25, snatching the precious alchemy materials and now fighting him for the Tier 4 magic staff!
Thus, as the price kept soaring, the cold sweat on Elder ckwoods forehead increased.
The price is so high now, but the old man at table 25 is still ringing the bell without hesitation, not caring at all about his pocket full of Gold Dragons?
With his mind full of a myriad of Frost Sheep running rampant, Elder
ckwood discovered that,
At this point, the only ones still ringing the bell seemed to be him and Mason Banks.
This damn old man, the price is almost 800,000 Gold Dragons, and he hasnt stopped yet?
Seeing Mason Banks nearby, who seemed like a ruthless bell-pressing machine, Elder ckwoods forehead veins bulged as he cursed inwardly, Does he really think money is blown by the wind? How did I run into so many hard-to-crack assets today?
Without a doubt, although Elder ckwood had recently broken through his shackles and reached the level of Tier 4 Powerhouses, joining the ranks of Coldme top-tier nobles,
But given the short time, most of the funds at his disposal came from the ckvvood n, so naturally, he couldntpete with Leo Ray as freely as he wanted.
Tsk, just give it to them this time.
A momentter, when the price actually reached 800,000 Gold Dragons, the trembling old hand of Elder ckwood finally didnt raise it again. Instead, he spat andforted himself, Forget it, there will be more chancester, by now, these two fools, young and old, should have very little Gold Dragons left. Next, it will naturally be my turn to shine!
So, congrattions to our table 25 guest, who has won the ownership of this Tier 4 magic staff for the price of 800,000 Gold Dragons!
Subsequently, Baron Polis loud voice echoed again in the vast Starry Sky Auction House.
Dear distinguished guests, finally, its time for thest item of our second auction.
Following that, Baron Poli, who was on the auction stage, once again revealed his signature enigmatic expression and began speaking with anticipation.
And from the special passage for auction staff, a ceremonial attendant holding a tray began to walk out.
However, judging from his deliberately slowed pace, it was evident that he was doing this deliberately for effect, leaving the nobles below in anticipation. Finally, thest auction item hase.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal an intrigued expression.
He pondered inwardly, Since its the finale of the second auction, it must be something extraordinary, right?
Realizing this, a trace of anticipation appeared on Leo Rays face.
On the other hand, after receiving the tray handed over by the ceremonial attendant, Baron Poli smiled gracefully again and slowly opened the golden silk cloth covering the tray..

Trantor: 549690339
On the auction stage, as Baron Poli lifted the golden silk cloth, Leo Ray took notice.
What appeared was a small, delicate brocade box.
Judging by the size of the box, it should definitely be a magic medicine. So, thest auction item is a magic medicine, he thought.
At this moment, sitting in the audience, Leo Ray pondered thoughtfully and nodded slightly: In that case, it should be at least a Tier 3 Magic Medicine, right? I wonder what kind it is?
As he thought, a hint of anticipation appeared on Leo Rays face.
However, when Baron Poli on the auction stage smiled and opened the brocade box, the expectant expression on Leo Rays face suddenly turned into confusion.
What he saw in the box was an all-too-familiar, smooth, and shiny Qi Condensing Pill.
An ordinary Tier 2 Magic Drug is the final item of this second auction?
Staring in amazement at the object in Baron Polis hand, the puzzled look on Leo Rays face grew even more pronounced.
Meanwhile, some well-informed nobles around him also showed baffled expressions.
Notably, a few elderly nobles wearing Alchemist Badges even put on their special Alchemist sses.
They acted nonchnt yet couldnt contain their curiosity, craning their necks to get a better look.
However, these old nobles, whosebined ages totaled hundreds of years, carefully examined the object but still could not make sense of it.
Without a doubt, what was presented before them was indeed an extremely ordinary Tier 2 Magic Medicine.
Its worth noting that the price of a Tier 2 Magic Medicine is almost the same as that of Tier 3 Equipment.
So, since even a Tier 4 Magic Wand had appeared earlier, the final item should have been a rare Tier 3 Magic Medicine at the very least.
In the end, why was it just a Tier 2 Magic Medicine that wasnt even in the same league?
At this moment, as the audience was full of confusion,
Baron Poli on the auction stage elegantly smiled and exined: Dear distinguished guests, you dont need to doubt your eyes. This is indeed a genuine Tier 2 Qi Condensation Pill.
However, as for why we have chosen a Qi Condensation Pill as the final item for this second auction, its due to the pills owner.
Having said that, Baron Poli closed the brocade box and continued: Its owner is our respected Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City!
A Qi Condensation Pill provided by the Lord of Viennas City?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows and revealed a genuinely interested expression.
He silently thought: Since he has publicly revealed his identity, there must be hidden secrets involved.
On the auction stage, Baron Poli continued with his charismatic voice: I believe you all know that an ancient relic was discovered near Viennas City some time ago; in fact, there were two, not just one!
As for the location of the other one, its extremely secret, only known to Lord Asher and remains unexplored. Therefore, the winning bidder of this item will not only gain ownership of this Qi Condensation Pill, but more importantly, theyll have the opportunity to explore the unknown ancient ruins with Lord Asher! All discovered treasures will be divided equally!
Lastly, this transaction has been approved in writing by the Sanders Family and will be supervised by the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference. Please feel free to bid; if there are any issues, the Trading Conference will take responsibility.
Upon hearing this, a strongmotion erupted among the audience members.
Throughout history, countless lucky ones have found invaluable equipment and treasures in ancient relics of various races; the benefits are obvious and need no boration.
Moreover, since the Sanders Trading Conference will supervise the entire process, that means Master Gael, a Tier 4 Powerhouse, will also be involved. In addition to Lord Asher, who is also a Tier 4 Powerhouse.
So, having this opportunity,
also equates to the invaluable opportunity to get to know two well-established Tier 4 Powerhouses in Coldme Kingdom!
Whats crucial is that both Tier 4 Powerhouses have considerable influence,
a golden opportunity that ordinary nobles and wealthy merchants would definitely covet!
In conclusion, whether from the perspective of wealth or connections,
the chain effect triggered by this small Qi Condensation Pill indeed makes it worthy to be the grand finale of the second auction.
While all the nobles and merchants were excited,
Leo Ray, located in the second row of the front VIP area, had a thoughtful expression.
Only he knew clearly that the parties interested in ancient relics werent limited to the Lord of Viennas City and the people present.
There was also an extremely uncertain danger: the mysterious organization.
From Kelseys previous description, it can be inferred that due to the timely suppression of information by the Lord of Viennas City at the time, very few people knew the real details of the mysterious organizations attack on the exploration team, and it was lightly portrayed as a failed treasure heist encounter battle.
This incident eventually turned into the gimmick for the final auction C the
Ancient Chest..

With that in mind, Leo Ray looked at the carefree Scarlett, who was sipping orange juice beside him, and fell into deep thought again, However, since the Lord of Viennas City chose to publicly disclose the matter of the second relic, it must mean that they already have certain precautions.
I think so too. Under theirmand, they have almost ten thousand members of the Viennas City Defense Army, in addition to their Coldme Royal Family status and the protection of the Coldme Royal Family.
Even a mysterious organization would have to think twice before making a move on them. After all, from the current situation, there has been no open conflict between the mysterious organization and the Coldme Royal Family.
At this moment, Scarlett, her face flushed red, gulped down arge ss of orange juice with a bubbly sound.
Leo Ray shook his head helplessly and continued to ponder, Also, at this stage, the clues in my grasp are still extremely limited. Its better to focus on dealing with the aloof Princess Cold me. Im sure Ill get more clues from her.
Having said that, why did the Lord of Viennas City choose to make public the matter of possessing the second relic at this time? Why not wait for the news to die down and then organize their own team to explore it?
Just as Leo Ray was somewhat puzzled by this idea.
Kelsey, in a red long dress, came over from another table.
She whispered to Leo Ray, My lord, ording to what my father said, this time, whether its the hired Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps, other Tier 4 powerhouses, or the carefully arranged traps at night, the Lord of Viennas City spent a considerable amount of Gold Dragons.
This has caused a huge deficit in the ount books of the City Lord Mansion. Therefore, the Lord of Viennas City is auctioning off this Qi Condensing Pill and the right to explore the relics to get through this financial crisis.
Understood.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray contemted for a moment and suddenly looked enlightened.
Goodness, since he was not short of money, he had overlooked this key point.
With a slight smirk, Leo Ray continued to ponder, In any case, what can be confirmed at present is that due to the deaths of the two elders, the Lord of Viennas Citys side has already formed a deep hatred with the mysterious organization.
As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Therefore, I must obtain the qualification to explore this relic.
On the other side, Baron Poli on the stage bowed gracefully and said, Alright, esteemed guests, the specific date of this relic exploration trip will be determined by the Lord of Viennas City and the winner of the Qi Condensing Pill.
So, lets begin our thrilling bidding session.
At this point, seeing the eager looks of the nobles and businessmen below, Baron Poli smiled faintly and said, This Qi Condensing Pill, along with the opportunity to explore the relics with Lord Viennas City, is starting with a reserve price of 500,000 Gold Dragons, with a minimum bid increment of 20,000 Gold Dragons. Please begin your bidding.
500,000 Gold Dragon coins
As soon as Baron Poli said this, most of the nobles and merchants in the audience sighed and shook their heads, expressing their regret.
Most of the people present carried around 500,000 Gold Dragons with them, and they had already consumed a part of it.
Thus, they obviously did not meet even the most basic threshold, including the plump aristocrat who had previously defeated Leo Ray several times and obtained many of his items with delight.
Though his funds were depleted and he could no longer participate in the final auction, he looked at Leo Ray, who also hadnt made a move in the front row, and grinned.
The plump aristocrat couldnt help butugh, grabbing the champagne ss on the table and draining it, looking quite pleased.
In any case, it seemed that the young man was out of money. After sticking his neck out so many times before, he must be regretting it now, right?
Hehe, this annoying man, who keptpeting with himself from the beginning, finally got a taste of his own medicine!
Meanwhile, as the sound of the silver bell rang around him, Leo Ray, with a significant amount of money in hand, naturally wasnt in a hurry to join the bidding crowd.
Currently, he still had nearly 1.9 million Gold Dragons, and Kelsey could call on an additional 3 million at any time. From the perspective of two consecutive auctions, it undoubtedly seemed more than sufficient.
While leisurely pondering this, Leo Ray began to survey the surroundings.
At this moment, those who pressed the bell the most enthusiastically were the high-ranking nobles led by the Grand Elder of the ckwood n.
However, much to Leo Rays surprise, the two Knight Commanders who had each previously won a magic medicine, Tina and Layne, were also constantly ringing the silver bell with eager eyes.
Watching their fiercepetition, Leo Ray furrowed his brow and thought for a moment before understanding.
As Leo Ray secretly contemted this,
On the other side, the Grand Elder of the ckwood n was passionately pressing the bell, with an air of triumph.
At present, the two young, inexperiencedmanders were running out of funds.
As a result, he, who had the most robust financial resources in the field, naturally had the upper hand.
After a while, as the people around who pressed the bell became fewer and fewer..

Elder ckwoods gloomy gaze fell once again on Tina and Layne, who were still persistentlypeting.
Where did these two little bratse from? Minor Tier 3 Peak Level Knights thinking they have the qualifications topete with me?
At this thought, Elder ckwood of the ckwood n sneered and continued to furiously ring the bell.
Just like that, a momentter, when the price reached 700,000 Gold Dragons.
Tina, with her coldly beautiful face, was the first to admit defeat. Biting her red lips, she looked unwilling but helpless.
Those 700,000 Gold Dragons werent just the entire savings of the Blue Rose Knights.
Furthermore, arge portion of it was scraped together by their struggling knights.
Due to the recent tense border conflicts and the defeat of Coldme.
The nobles residing in the territory were on edge every day, all trying to strengthen the defenses within their own territories.
As a result, they havent provided any funding to the knights for quite some time.
And thepetition for the right to explore the ruins this time might be theirst chance to turn their fortunes around.
If they continue like this, it wont be long before the entire Blue Rose Knights cease to exist.
Then, as the price approached 800,000, Layne, not far away, sighed and reluctantly gave up the race.
Although they appeared to have abundant wealth on the surface, the actual situation of the Broken de Knights was not much different from that of the Blue Rose Knights.
Not only had the nobles withdrawn their investments, but they had also demanded that they submit their equipment and food supplies to the Defense Army in the city as a priority.
When the indignant Layne tried to reason with the other party,
Their response was self-righteous: The royal family is demanding so much from us every day; we cant even take care of ourselves. How can we care about you?
At this thought, although they didnt like each other, Tina and Layne sighed in unison at this moment.
Tsk, those two brats finally gave up.
On the other side, a trace of pride appeared on Elder ckwoods old face, he thought to himself, Lately, due to the unclear situation on the border,
Many nobles who had funded these mediocre organizations had chosen to withdraw their investments for self-preservation. To think these people would still dare topete with me, theyre truly overestimating themselves!
ring at the two fiercely, Elder ckwood mocked in his heart: Thinking theres still a chance to turn things around? Stop dreaming! I dont care about the lives of you guys Its just a pity that Ive wasted so many Gold Dragons.
At the same time, Elder ckwood was thoughtfully considering the situation, the Auction House was left with only him.
Honorable guests, the current price is 800,000 Gold Dragons. Is there anyone else interested in this item?
On the other side, Baron Poli on the stage smiled elegantly and asked again.
Hearing this, both Tina and Layne shook their heads helplessly.
While Elder ckwood had an extremely smug expression on his face and impatiently urged, Hurry up and announce it, I still need to discuss the details with Lord Asher.
After finishing speaking, Elder ckwood deliberately nced at Leo Ray and Mason Banks, his face full of disdain.
Meanwhile, the fat aristocrat looked at Leo Rays indifferent figure and sneered, Hehe, this guy really knows how to lose watermelon while picking sesame seeds.
Opportunities like this arent always avable. If he hadntpeted with me for the item I wanted earlier, maybe hed still have a chance. But now, he can only me himself for his misfortune, tsk tsk.
Just when everyone on the scene believed that the second auction was about to end,
A faint voice abruptly entered the ears of all the nobles and wealthy merchants present: 900,000.
Undoubtedly, the speaker was Leo Ray.
Upon hearing Leo Rays voice, the entire auction house fell silent.
Almost everyone wore an expression of disbelief.
Many people still vividly remembered the young mans previous extravagant actions.
At first, everyone thought that after so many rounds ofpetition, Leo Rays pockets would already be empty.
However, to everyones surprise, he could stille up with so much money!
Nevertheless, the most astonished were the smug fat noble and Elder ckwood, who had thought victory was already in his grasp.
At this moment, the fat nobles mouth was wide open, his chubby face filled with shock.
Due to his petrified state, he was oblivious to the champagne spilling from his tilted ss onto his luxurious robe.
As for Elder ckwood in the front row, he had a face full of smiles and had already begun to ept the congrattions of other nobles around him.
His smile froze, and the scene became awkward for a moment.
Hes seen the Giant Dragon and this kid still has money?!
After a long pause, Elder ckwood finally came to his senses, his wrinkled old face filled with disbelief.
Immediately after, he gritted his teeth and pressed the silver bell once more.
1,000,000. On the other side, without the slightest hesitation, Leo Ray spoke calmly again.
This gentle voice once more stirred up a strong wave in the auction house.
The strength of this young man hadpletely exceeded everyones expectations.
At this moment, the nobles and wealthy merchants who were usually high and mighty all swallowed and couldnt help but cast admiring nces at Leo Ray. Such financial resources were obviously no longer something that these
mid-to-high tier nobles of Coldme could match.
Thinking of this, everyone unanimously believed that
Theposed young man not far away must be from one of the top aristocratic families in the Royal Capital!
Otherwise, no one else would have such formidable power!
At this moment, even the previously arrogant Elder ckwood, who finally came back to his senses, had lost his temper.
A character like this was not someone he could afford to provoke, so what was the point of continuing to ring the bell? Besides, he was truly out of money in his pocket
May I ask if you can announce the result now?
On the other side, seeing Leo Ray smile faintly, he spoke to Baron Poli on the stage, who was also somewhat stunned..

Trantor: 549690339
So, a Qi Condensing Pill and the opportunity to explore the ancient ruins with Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City will be won by this gentleman at table number 8, at the sky-high price of one million Gold Dragons!
Immediately, Baron Polis maic professional voice resounded throughout the whole Starry Sky Auction House.
For a moment, the entire auction house instantly boiled with excitement.
All eyes were focused on the same spot.
On the other side, feeling the reverent gazes of numerous aristocrats and wealthy merchants around him, Leo Ray took a sip from his champagne in his high-footed ss, his expression indifferent.
Without a doubt, at this moment, he and Scarlett beside him had once again be the focus of the entire audience.
Meanwhile, Kelsey in her red dress had already run over to a group of shy aristocratic women earlier, so she didnt attract much attention.
That being said, even though he was now in the spotlight, Leo Ray was not worried about encountering any problems.
First of all, his identity was originally disguised as a remote noble of Coldme, one that had no territory, belonged to a minor branch, and had already fallen into obscurity, which left no hints for others to trace.
Secondly, based on the current situation,
These usually high and mighty aristocrats and wealthy merchants obviously mistook him for a higher-ranking aristocratic family.
Therefore, even if his false identity was discovered, it would be a reasonable and expected urrence.
After all, there were no shortage of wealthy and mischievous scions of aristocratic families who hid their true identities while causing trouble everywhere.
And his extravagant bidding only reinforced this belief in the minds of others.
Lastly, and most importantly,
Leo Ray was originally an Otherworld Lord who had traversed here, and he had no identity in this world at all.
Moreover, the location of his territory in the Demonic Shadow Forest had not been exposed yet.
And when he left, he had used the Returning Crystal to flee directly, leaving no trace behind.
That being said, the reason why I publicly bid for the opportunity to explore these ruins this time is twofold. Firstly, it is to get acquainted with the Lord of Viennas City and learn more about the Ancient Chest. Secondly, it is naturally in regard to those two Knight Captains.
From the information previously revealed by Kelsey, it could be deduced that the financial situation of the knight troops under those two people was not very ideal.
Seeing his extravagant spending and his earlier intentional goodwill in the Magic Medicine auction,
If nothing unexpected happens, they should probably take the initiative to make contact with himter.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray slightly turned his head, his dark eyes shifted, and he looked stealthily back.
He noticed that Tina and Layne in the back row were both looking over in shock, their expressions filled with envy and desire.
At this moment, Baron Poli in ck tails on the auction stage continued, Alright, honorable guests, I dere that the second part of the Viennas City Joint Auction hase to an end!
Next, guests who have signed up to attend the evening auction, please enjoy your time at the venue.
The third andst part of the auction will be held in another hall in an hour!
Thus, as the crowd began to disperse, Leo Ray noticed,
As he had just anticipated,
At this time, the two Knight Captains, Tina and Layne, did not immediately leave.
Instead, they hesitated for a moment before finally approaching Leo with several apanying warriors.
Seeing this, Leo Ray smiled and went to greet them with Scarlett.
Congrattions, Your Excellency, on sessfully obtaining the final masterpiece!
On the other side, Tina and Layne almost simultaneously bowed their fists and congratted Leo Ray.
Immediately afterward, noticing their first-ever closeness and the mutual dislike between the two Knight Captains, both frowned slightly, distanced themselves from each other, and bowed slightly towards Leo Ray.
It wasnt until this moment that the two fully realized,
That the seemingly gentle-looking and gentle-hearted young man in front of them was hiding such immense power behind him!
You two are too kind,
With a gentle smile, Leo Ray nodded and replied, Im just acting on a whim, its nothing grand.
A whim that costs one million Gold Dragons
On the other side, upon hearing Leo Rays somewhat Versailles-like response, Tina and Layne, the two economically challenged Knight Captains, couldnt help but reveal their shock once more.
Although they too had several hundred thousand Gold Dragons, they had to bear the responsibility of providing for the livelihoods of thousands of people.
If the difference were averaged out, it would be unimaginable.
Looking at the astonished expressions of the two Knight Captains, Leo Ray changed the subject and said, By the way, Im a bit short on manpower right now, and I was wondering if the two of you could provide some support when its time to explore the ancient ruins.
Of course, the half of the treasures I obtain, will be subsequently shared fairly among the three parties since my main concern is safety.
The reason Leo Ray made such a suggestion was to further strengthen his rtionship with the two.
It should be noted that for the current territory,
Two knight troops, each with around 3,000 members and stronger than the average defense army, could definitely be an indispensable force to be reckoned with.
In short, using this opportunity to have these two knight troops owe me a huge favor will only be beneficial for my future ns,

Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, Leo Ray was thinking in his heart.
On the other side, both Tina and Laynes faces were filled with uncontroble ecstasy upon receiving Leo Rays olive branch.
In this way, they could not only meet the three powerful individuals, including the young man in front of them.
Moreover, they wouldnt have to spend a penny and could get one-third of half of the treasure!
Such an invitation was like a timely help to the two who were originally disheartened and financially strained!
Your Excellency, do you really mean it?
A momentter, Tina narrowed her long eyshes, her cold and stunning face softened for the first time, and asked tentatively. Layne also nodded eagerly, showing a simr urgency.
Absolutely.
With a faint smile, Leo Ray said, Alright, both of you, lets leave it at that for now. Once I have discussed the specifics with the Lord of Viennas City, I will have someone notify you at your respective residences.
We will await your good news.
On the other hand, in their joy, both Tina and Layne eximed in unison, then bowed together in a standard knightly courtesy.
Before leaving, both of them handed over their knight badge, which was worn on their chests, to Leo Ray as a token of acquaintance, to express their gratitude.
In this way, after seeing off the two, Leo Ray and his party of eight returned to the reception room they were in before.
Kelsey also finished calcting the numerous auctioned items and the remaining Gold Dragons, cing them in front of Leo Ray on the redwood table one by one.
Lord, we have obtained a total of one Tier 3 Magic Weapon, five pieces of Tier
3 ordinary equipment, one Magic Martial Arts Skill Scroll, one pair of
Star-patterned Fruits, one Tier 4 Magic Wand, and finally, that Qi Condensing
Pill. And we still have more than 800,000 Gold Dragons left.
At this point, Kelsey couldnt help feeling dazzled as she looked at the numerous shiny items in front of her.
Continuing, she said, As for meeting the Lord of Viennas City to discuss the expedition to the ruins, it will take ce twenty minutes before the final auction begins, at which time my father will also be present.
Very good.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray waved his hand lightly, instantly putting away therge amount of valuable items and dazzling amount of gold coins in his Space Bracelet.
Then, sitting at the head of the reception room, Leo Ray began to review the newly acquired items while sipping on the fragrant tea that Amelia had just
brewed.
The Tier 3 Magic Weapon is called the Flowing me Sword, and the Tier 4 Magic Wand is called the Ice Soul Wand.
As for the five pieces of Tier 3 equipment I chose, they are all rtively scarce leather armor and light armor, such as [Hunters Leather Armor] and [Silver Knights Light Armor], and so on.
As for the Magic Martial Arts Skill Scroll [Lightning Wind Chaser sh], is it at Tier 3? Not bad, not bad.
Seeing this, Leo Ray did not hesitate and began upgrading directly.
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Weapon: Flowing me Sword has been upgraded to Tier 4 Weapon: zing Shadow Sword!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Armor: Hunters Leather Armor has been upgraded to Tier 3 Armor: Hunters Leather Armor 100 sets!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Armor: Silver Knights Light Armor has been upgraded to Tier 3 Armor: Silver Knights Light Armor 105 sets!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Ice Soul Wand has been upgraded to
Tier 5 Weapon: Frost Dragon Wand!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Skill Scroll: Lightning Wind Chaser sh has been upgraded to Tier 4 Skill Scroll: Sky-breaking Thunderbolt sh!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Drug: Qi Condensing Pill has been upgraded to Tier 2 Magic Drug: Qi Condensing Pill 100 pills!]
Magic weapons, tier 4 magic wands, and magic martial arts skill scrolls have all undergone qualitative changes, while the other five pieces of tier 3 equipment and Qi Condensing Pills have undergone quantitative changes? Its simply perfect!
Hearing this, while delighted, Leo Ray first opened the attribute column of the upgraded Tier 4 Magic Sword [zing Shadow Sword].
[Name: zing Shadow Sword] [Grade: Tier 4 -Epic (Purple)]
[Attack Strength: ]
[Additional Effect: Scorching me Infuse energy to deal extra Tier 3 Tyro Magic damage during attacks]
[Note: It is said that the original owner of this sword was a brave dwarf warrior and dwarf cksmith who, in order to make up for the vast majority of dwarves inability to use magic,
coborated with a wandering elf cksmith to create this extraordinary divine weapon.]
Not bad, this Tier 4 weapon, if used by a Tier 3 powerhouse, can indeed exert a significant power. However, for me, one sword alone does not seem to have much effect.
At this moment, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown, then his eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized, Right, this type of sword, with a wide and thick de, should be a good kitchen knife for Rudy.
In this way, as long as the heat is controlled, wont the vegetables and meat be cooked during the cutting process? Ill ask himter.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
If anyone knew about Leo Rays idea at this moment, whether it be other Lords who have advented at the same time or those high and mighty nobles, they would probably kick their legs out and pass out in anger.
Damn, using a Tier 4 weapon as a kitchen knife, you really do have some crazy
ideas..

Trantor: 549690339
However, I have to say, this idea is really quite powerful
Next, Leo Ray opened the newly acquired Tier 5 wand, the [Frost Dragon Wand], and viewed its attribute column. [Name: Frost Dragon Wand] [Grade: Tier 5?Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Attack Strength:
[Additional Effect 1: Fury of the Frost Dragon (Increase ice attribute magic damage by 60%)]
[Additional Effect 2: Frost Dragons Protection (Reduce ice attribute magic damage by 80%)]
[Remark: This wandes from a distant frozennd, where a mysterious race is engaged in a bitter war with the Frost Dragon.
As the saying goes, fight fire with fire, this wand was crafted by that mysterious race to counter the Frost Dragons.]
An 80% reduction of ice-attribute damage?
After reading the wands attributes, a smile appeared on Leo Rays face, and he thought to himself, Im currently in need of a Tier 5 wand, so I might as well keep it for my own use.
With this, the casting speed and power of the[Whale Fall Thunder Explosion] will obviously be increased by a level! If I get a better one down the road, it wont be toote to give it to Joshua Bingaman, who is an Ice Mage, to use.
Rubbing his hands together in excitement, Leo Ray continued to browse another item he had been eagerly awaiting, the Tier 4 Magic Martial Arts Skill Scroll [Sky-breaking Thunderbolt sh]. [Name: Sky-breaking Thunderbolt sh]
[Tier: Tier 4]
[Description: Lightning Attribute?Single Target?Close Combat?Magic Martial Arts?Sword Skill. This skill was created by a powerhouse with both human and winged race bloodlines, who was a Tier 5 Magic and Martial Arts Dual Powerhouse, and it is one of his signature skills.
The raging lightning power is attached to the sword, performing a full-powered strike from above, and is required to be used with flying technique.
This skill is incredibly fast, generating a powerful sonic boom. Most opponents are defeated by this skill before they even have a chance to react.]
Well, as expected, even the most basic requirement for Magic Martial Arts Skills is the use of flying techniques, huh?
At this stage, my Magic Energy Vortex is still at the Tier 2 Nine-Star level.
It looks like Ill have to wait until I advance to Tier 3 Magic powerhouses to start learning this skill.
However, speaking of which, Im really looking forward to the effect of this skill.
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray nodded satisfactorily, letting out a sigh of relief.
In summary, the first half of the auction had yielded a significant harvest.
Not only did they obtain arge number of storage rings, which further facilitated their future actions, but every powerhouse present now had their own personal space and battle reserves.
Moreover, they also received a considerable amount of Magic Medicine and Tier 3 Equipment.
The most important thing was that after upgrading, he had obtained a Tier 5 wand, a Tier 4 magic sword, and a Tier-skill scroll, all at the same time.
Additionally, they had also obtained two key materials for refining Star Pattern Mazic Enerzv Pills: Star-Datterned Fruits!
In this case, the distance from their side to mass-produce the all-new unupgraded, third-tier Magic Medicine for upgrading their strength had made a significant leap forward!
Speaking of which, I still have two goalsing up.
Taking a sip of the fragrant tea, Leo Ray showed a contemtive expression: The first is the meeting with Lord Asher Porter of Viennas Cityter, to confirm the specific time for the exploration of the ruins.
Theres no need to rush into this matter. Even with the participation of Lord Asher Porter and his daughter Kelsey, well likely be attacked by the mysterious organization during the exploration process.
The most important thing is that I still have very limited understanding of the mysterious organization, so its best to start from Princess Ariel and see if theres any new information avable.
Moreover, Lord Asher Porter himself probably wont be in a hurry to settle this matter. After all, the one million Gold Dragons should be enough to alleviate his financial situation, and the oue of the final showdown with the mysterious organization at thest auction is still uncertain.
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray put down the still slightly hot empty teacup and continued thinking, As for the second point, it would naturally be the Ancient Chest in the final auctionter tonight.
This is the highlight of the night.
During the uing meeting with Lord Asher Porter, well see if we can obtain more detailed ns for tonights trap or any other information about the mysterious organization from him.
Speaking of which, the Clyde Thompson and his son, who are being monitored by Serena rk and Ste rk, still have not shown any movement. However, looking at the timing, it should be about time, right?
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray focused his attention again, then spoke to the subordinates present, In any case, if all goes well, tonight a fierce battle will inevitably break out between Lord Asher Porters party and the mysterious organization.
Our ultimate goal is to seize the Ancient Chest amidst the chaos, thwarting the mysterious organizations purpose. At this stage, the mysterious organization has only revealed the tip of the iceberg to us.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and continued, Furthermore, considering the multiple urrences of major disaster prophecies, the words of the Asura in the Mirage, as well as his indiscriminate actions, one cant help but suspect that the mysterious organization is secretly carrying out a massive conspiracy.
Let that so-called Asura, who calls all the Otherworldly Lords ants in the Mirage and looks down on them so disdainfully, see for himself whether the beings in his mouth, which could be easily ughtered if he itches for a fight, are as fragile as he imagines.
We obey! Lord, we are willing to brave fire and water for you!
On the other side, the subordinates knelt down on one knee and unanimously dered their loyalty.
Leo Ray gave a slight nod and, after a moment, spoke to Kelsey, whose pretty face was filled with worry, Dont worry, Ill find a way for your father and us to leave the battlefield together when the timees.
Thank you, Lord!
Hearing this, Kelsey nodded heavily and expressed her gratitude to Leo Ray.
Just as their conversation reached this point, Leo Ray suddenly heard his mind talk prompt.
Upon connecting, the vigorous voice of Serena rk came into Leo Rays ears, Reporting to the Lord, Clyde Thompson and his son have just secretly left Sanders Trading Conference and started heading towards a remote area in the
north of the city.

Trantor: 549690339
Is the fox finally showing its tail?
Hearing this, Leo Ray, who was sitting at the head of the table, smiled faintly andmanded, Keep a close eye on their whereabouts and report me immediately if there is any situation.
Yes, my Lord! On the other side of the Mind Talk, Serena rks clear and resolute voice rang out again.
Northern part of Viennas City, in an old district.
On the dark night, two cold moons hung high in the sky.
In the low, dpidated slum, the night wind was deste and biting.
The cold moonlight pouring down from the sky made the already rundown low houses seem even more deste.
In a dark damp alley, with an intense repulsive stench.
Apanied by a gust of fierce wind, two figures in ck robes swept past and vanished at the end of the alley.
In the midst of their flight, the faces of these two figures cloaked in ck capes gradually became clear, and they were none other than Clyde Thompson and his son.
As for Clyde Thompson, his face pale as ever, still wore the same gloomy expression.
And beside him was a thin middle-aged man.
From his simrly sinister brown eyes, it was evident.
This man was Clydes father, none other than Gary Lewis, the Vice President of the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference.
What, are you still brooding about what happened during the day?
Upon reaching the roof of a decrepit wooden house, Gary Lewis muddy eyes swayed as he tilted his head slightly and spoke to Clyde.
That damned kid!
Hearing this, Clydes pale face twitched involuntarily as he resentfully said, If it werent for that mysterious guy showing up and providing arge amount of popr items, the position of President would have already been in your hands, Father!
As he said this, Clydes face became even more distorted and continued, And that crazy girl, Kelsey, I will take care of her sooner orter!
It doesnt matter.
On the other side, Gary Lewis showed aposed and rxed demeanor, while keeping an eye on the surrounding and waving his hand indifferently, Originally, our n was to seize the position of President first, and then deal with Gael and Kelsey and other side members when the opportunity arose.
Now that such is the case, all we need to do is to reverse the order of our original n, and then the position of President will naturally be within our grasp.
I see!
Hearing this, Clydes brown eyes swirled as a ruthless look emerged on his face and he sinisterly said, Father, are you suggesting that while the powerful men in the organization strive to obtain the Ancient Chest, we seize the opportunity to eliminate them both?
No, that would be too reckless. After all, Gael is a Tier 4 powerhouse, otherwise, as direct heirs like us, we wouldnt have been suppressed by him.
Shaking his head slightly, Gary Lewis sneered and continued, Besides, with so many powerful individuals within the organization, why do we need to take action ourselves? We can simply kill them indirectly.
At this point, a fierce light shed in Gary Lewis murky eyes and he fiercely added, Of course, if after a major battle they are already at the end of their strength, we could send them to their deaths. We have been suppressed by them long enough over the years. Since we have recently joined the organization,
we must make good use of this vast resource. My goal is not limited to a small Viennas City.
Father is wise!
Nodding thoughtfully, Clyde pondered for a moment before realizing, Once we meet with the other powerful people in the organization, we only need to stress the threat of Gael and Kelsey, then the Presidents position will naturally be ours once these two die!
A promising student.
With a cold smile, Gary Lewis took out a Gothic white metal mask from his bosom, putting it on his face while saying, Alright, were not far from the rendezvous point. Lets get ready.
Understood.
On the other side, Clyde made the same action, and then spoke resentfully, And that kid who came out of nowhere, if I run into himter, Ill find a way to kill him on the spot!
After speaking, with a swoosh, the two on the decrepit wooden house transformed into two shadows, disappearing on the spot.
Swoosh!
At the same time, a pair of slender figures hidden under cloaks also leaped up and trailed closely behind the two.
I cant believe they would be so malicious!
In a private room at the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, Kelseys pretty face showed disbelief upon hearing Leo Rays Mind Talk, angrily saying.
In any case, we can now be sure that these two have indeed joined the mysterious organization and havent been members for long.
Signaling Kelsey to calm down, Leo Ray picked up a freshly filled porcin teacup and continued, It seems that one of the main reasons for them joining the mysterious organization is to gain a higher position in the family.
Hmph, they are just being too clever for their own good. They fail to realize that when you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back at you.
On the other side, Kelsey furrowed her brows, somewhat worried and asked, Lord, what should we do next?

Next, naturally, we need these two to help us figure out the specific configuration of the mysterious organizations raid team tonight.
Finishing the hot tea in his cup, Leo Ray smiled lightly.
In the north of Viennas City, in the old city district.
Under the twin moonlight, in the shadow of a stone house ruin.
d in ck robes and wearing white metal masks, Gary Lewis and Clyde Thompson stand waiting anxiously for something.
Upon closer inspection, their brand new white masks only bear a ck cracked emblem, without any specific number.
After a while, a ck-robed figure with a white mask and No. 00051 descends from the sky andnds in front of them.
The third powerful figure doesnt speak to the duo, but merely extends an arm to expose a rough, veined dorsal hand.
Seeing this, Gary and Clyde do not hesitate to make the same gesture.
The next second, the three armse together.
In an instant, three identical ck cracked emblems emerge from the backs of their hands, emitting a strange ck glow under the cold moonlight.
Two interns of the organization,e with me.
After confirming the identity of Clyde and his son, No. 51 nodded slightly and spoke in a stiff, disguised voice.
As youmand! Lord No. 51!
Hearing this, Gary and Clyde both nodded and made the same disguised voices.
It seems that the Gothic-style white metal masks themselves have a voice-changing function.
Then, under the guidance of No. 51, the three raced through the dark night, leaping from one broken rooftop to another.
Finally, after many twists and turns, they arrived at a dpidated and long-abandoned warehouse.
Stepping into the cobweb-filled, dusty ruins, Gary and Clyde noticed others besides No. 51 guiding them.
At this moment, in addition to No. 51, there were 11 other imposing ck-robed masked powerhouses.
Two Tier 4 Powerhouses and ten Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses, right?
Seeing this, Garys cloudy eyes swiveled and he muttered to himself.
Have the two interns arranged the route for the operation?
An emotionless disguised voice rang out, and the burly ck-robed No. 40 inquired.
In response to Lord No. 40, everything has been arranged properly.
Stepping forward with a nod and a bow, Gary immediately replied: This time, there will be no issues.
Lets hope so. Last time, due to you two misjudging the time their reinforcements arrived, our operation not only failed, but we also suffered losses.
Striding up to Gary, No. 40s ck-robed mans tone became increasingly harsh, saying coldly: This time, if there are any problems, even the slightest, Im afraid you two will have to permanently disappear from this world.
No, no, Lord, please rest assured, everything is under control.
On the other side, Gary quickly nodded and smiled.
Speaking up to this point, Gary paused for a moment and tried to probe: Respected Lord No. 40, although we did not figure out the specific powerhouses configuration of Viennas City, they must have set up a tight to prevent us from robbing the Ancient Chest. Im afraid this might be
Afraid of what? Are you trying to teach us how to do things?
Waving the glistening wide-de sword in his hand, No. 40s ck-robed man leaned forward as if to press his mask against Garys, the threat was unmistakable.
Enough, No. 40, step back.
A low, powerful voice sounded, and from the shadows emerged another burly man.
This man was at least two meters tall, like a small moving mountain.
Moreover, the white metal mask he wore was also unique.
There were blood-red patterns all over it, clearly different from other ck-robed peoples white in masks.
Engraved on the very top was the number: 7!
A Tier 5 Powerhouse? Lord Asura?!
Seeing this, a smile of ecstasy appeared beneath Garys and Clydes masks.
No matter how powerful the Lord of Viennas City might be, there was no way he could muster a force capable of contending with a Tier 5 powerhouse!
It seems that this time, Gael and Kelsey will certainly meet their demise.
At this moment, while excited, Clydes pale face began to twist again.
He secretly thought: Right, I initially thought that the hateful boy might have some tricks up his sleeve, but now, with a Tier 5 powerhouse here, theres no way he can make any big waves!
Just as Clyde gleefully thought about this:
No. 7, emanating terrifying energy fluctuations with every move, stepped in front of them and said indifferently, How about it? Is this lineup enough to seize the Ancient Chest now?
Enough, as long as Lord Asura is in action, it will be a sure win!
On the other side, the two nodded and bowed reverently.
Some time ago, if it werent for a major task approaching in Saint Night Kingdom, I wouldnt have been in the Coldme Domain. The Ancient Chest would have already been in our possession.
At this point, the extremely burly No. 7 ck-robed person sneered.
He then turned to address the other powerhouses: In any case, the purpose of our operation this time is to seize the Ancient Chest. Of course, if anyone dares to obstruct us, regardless of who it is, they must be eliminated at all costs.

Trantor: 549690339
Yes, Lord Asura!
Upon hearing this, the other ck-robed figures respectfully bowed and spoke in unison.
For a moment, a heavy killing aura filled the vast warehouse.
No. 7 ck-robed Person nodded satisfactorily and walked in front of Gary Lewis and Clyde Thompson.
He said, ording to the organizations rules, you two are the strongest fighters in this city, so you dont need to participate in this operation. Just guide us, and once we seed, youll be official members.
Thank you, Lord Asura!
Grateful, Gary and Clyde bowed their heads and said with a worried tone, Lord Asura, theres one more thing wed like to mention. The Master of Sanders Trading Conference and his daughter in Viennas City are extremely cunning and difficult to deal with.
One is a middle-aged Tier 4 Powerhouse Martial Artist wearing a light gray robe, and the other is a Tier 3 Powerhouse Martial Artist in a red dress with a topknot. Please be cautious when dealing with them,rades.
Apprentice, dont try to be smart anymore.
In a dark disguised voice, No. 7 ck-robed Person stepped closer. His overwhelming aura surged like a giant wave, pressing down upon Gary and Clyde.
Under immense pressure, they felt the surrounding air be thick, making it difficult to breathe, and their faces involuntarily turned red as they clutched their necks.
After a moment, the pressure from No. 7 ck-robed Person finally faded, and he looked at the two men now slumped on the ground, gasping for breath. If you ever achieve great merits, you can apply for a Kill Order from the organization to eliminate your enemies. Understand?
We understand! We wont do that again!
Both Gary and Clyde, still trembling, spoke in unison.
Alright, lead the way.
No. 7 ck-robed Person nodded faintly.
In an instant, the thirteen mysterious organization fighters, guided by Gary and Clyde, transformed into shadows and vanished within the abandoned warehouse.
At the same time, two petite and delicate figures followed closely like ghosts, not even stirring a single speck of dust.
A Tier 5 Powerhouse, two Tier 4 Powerhouses, and ten Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses, huh?
Listening to the conversation through Mind Talk, Leo Ray couldnt help but take a deep breath and muttered, The most crucial thing is that we meet those old acquaintances from Mirage again, No. 7 and No. 40.
It seems tonight, a bloody battle will indeed unfold between the Lord of Viennas City and the mysterious organization. Its quite a coincidence that we get to encounter them again so soon.
Lord, with the addition of the lord of Viennas City and my fathers subordinates, the City Lords team only has five Tier 4 Powerhouses and twenty Tier 3 Pinnacle and Senior Powerhouses. Theres no way they can stand against the Mysterious Organization.
At this point, Kelseys face showed a worried expression, You know, just one Tier 5 Powerhouse is probably enough to challenge everyone.
Dont forget our undisclosed variable.
Smiling faintly, Leo Ray looked at the burly man next to him and said, Taylor, this time, our sess depends on you.
Rest assured, my lord.
In a rough and unrestrained voice, Taylor responded with confidence, his thick beard and long hair fluttering without wind, exuding a fighting spirit.
Pausing, he continued, During the Mirage encounter, I sensed that the enemys strength was almost on par with mine. However, with the Dragon sh Sword gifted by Lord, I have full confidence that I can remain undefeated under normal circumstances, regardless of his hidden cards.
And in my berserk state, I have absolute certainty that I can defeat him.
Very good.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray said, In any case, this time, although we have amon enemy with the Lord of Viennas City,
we are not actually allies, but an independent third-party between them.
Secondly, since were on someone elses territory, we must reserve some strength in case of emergencies.
Thus, we dont need to go all out in this battle. All we need to do is seize the Ancient Chest in the chaos and then slip away. Of course, if theres an opportunity to deal a heavy blow or even kill the so-called Asura, it shouldnt be missed.
With these thoughts, even Leo Ray felt his blood boiling.
After all, this was their first time facing a Tier 5 Powerhouse.
However, even though Tier 4 Powerhouse Gideon ck had not arrived,
their subordinate team still included a Tier 5 Powerhouse Taylor, Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses Serena rk, Ste rk, Linda, Mason Banks, and Amelia,
Two Tier 3 Eight-Star powerhouses Scarlett and Abigail, Tier 3 Six-Star Bianca White, and Tier 3 Two-Star Kelsey, all equipped with weapons above Tier 4.
In addition, Leo Ray had 24 Tier 3 Earth Guardians [Blessing of the Southern Cross] that could block one Tier 5 attack, as well as other spell attack scrolls.
Therefore, as they appeared as a third force while the other two parties were fighting fiercely,
they could effortlessly profit from the situation.
Also, during the auction, there will be several other ordinary neutrals or even clueless noble powerhouses. In the early stages, our side just has to blend into the crowd, wait for our chance to strike, and watch the drama unfold.
With these thoughts, Leo Ray regained hisposure and put down the teacup in his hand.
He then addressed his subordinates, Alright, its about time we head over to the Lord of Viennas City to discuss exploring the ruins and see if we can obtain any additional information.
At yourmand, Lord!
The subordinates bowed and spoke in unison.

Lord, speaking of that, the part where Clyde Thompson and Gary Lewis were outwitted with their petty cleverness was quite satisfying.
Kelsey whispered into Leo Rays ear as they walked along a quiet corridor of the trading conference.
These two are merely clowns. Well deal with them directly during the chaotic battleter and then pin it on the mysterious organization.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and responded, Kelsey, when you see your fatherter, find an opportunity to inquire privately about all the details of Lord of Viennas Citys trap. The more detailed, the better. This time, the mysterious organization has sent a Tier 5 Powerhouse, making the situation much more difficult.
Pausing for a moment, Leo Ray continued, Therefore, we need to make adequate preparations and arrangements, transfer you and your father away from the main battlefield of the auction early, ensure the escape route afterward, and do all these without letting the Lord of Viennas City notice anything suspicious.
At this stage, Leo Ray understood clearly.
Although Gael, a Tier 4 Powerhouse, was not yet his direct subordinate,
his rtionship with Kelsey, and his significant status within the Sanders family made him extremely important to Leo Ray.
Moreover, although Kelsey had been mediating between them during this time, Leo Ray had noticed that Gael, the Master of Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, had been working behind the scenes, forming an unspoken understanding with Leo Ray.
As such, it was natural that Gael should not be a sacrifice between the Lord of Viennas City and the mysterious organization.
Understood, Lord!
Upon hearing his words, Kelseys delicate face revealed a touch of joy, as she nodded repeatedly.
Just like that, they walked along the luxurious corridor lined with soft red carpets.
Before long, under Kelseys guidance, Leo Ray and his party arrived at a heavily guarded area.
Here, besides the trading conference guards wearing leather armor, there were also numerous elite soldiers wearing light armor, patrolling around. The crisp, cold sound could be heard as their armor collided and rubbed against each other.
Upon closer examination, the eyes of each soldier beneath their helmets were sharp, and the weapons they carried were round shields and one-handed swords, ideal for fighting in narrow spaces.
An intense murderous atmosphere had begun to permeate the air.
Lord, these soldiers are the city guards of Viennas City, and their strength is at the Tier Second level. Many of them are battle-hardened veterans with richbat experience, Kelsey whispered to Leo Ray as they moved closer to the room where they would meet the City Lord.
Very well.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and retracted his gaze that had been wandering around.
Currently, Scarlett and Kelsey were apanying him openly, along with a team of Tier 2 elite guards from Kelseys side.
As for Taylor and the others, they were hidden under the Invisibility Cloak. Meanwhile, Mason Banks and his party had gone ahead to scout the new meeting venue.
Soon after, under Kelseys guidance, Leo Ray and his party entered a heavily guarded room.
Of course, thanks to the Invisibility Cloaks and the assistance of the Concealment Rings, they didnt encounter any obstacles, as only a Tier 5 Powerhouse could detect the presence of these subordinates.
However, to be on the safe side, Leo Ray only brought Scarlett, Kelsey, and Taylor, who was hidden in the shadows, into the room.
Upon entering thevishly decorated room, Leo Ray noticed that there were only two people sitting solemnly inside.
One was Gael, Kelseys father and the President Gail of Sanders Trade Association, whom they had met previously.
On the other side was a middle-aged powerhouse in a blue mage robe, exuding a sense of calmness.
Based on his grayish-white temples and rtively dense crows feet around his eyes, he appeared to be about fifty years old.
Leaning in for a closer look, the mages robe was of various colors, exuding an extraordinary aura from all over.
His movements were quite simr to Gaels, both giving a sense of unyielding resilience.
Undoubtedly, this was Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City.
Your Excellency, the City Lord, this is the gentleman I mentioned earlier, Mr. Christopher, who helped our Sanders branch tide over the crisis, Gael said as he introduced Leo Ray to Lord Asher after putting down his teacup.
Christopher was, of course, the alias Leo Ray had been using all this time.
Through his understanding in this period, he already knew that the name Christopher was quitemon in the various human countries, so he didnt worry about any issues arising from it.
Ah, so this is Mr. Christopher. You are indeed young and talented!
Upon hearing this, City Lord Asher smiled, nodded, and motioned for Leo Ray to take a seat.
However, judging by his slightly surprised expression, Lord Asher had not expected the dazzling and powerful Leo Ray at the auction to be so young.
Your Excellency, the City Lord, you tter me. Im just bluffing, nothing worth mentioning, Leo Ray replied with a faint smile and a wave of his hand, as he took his seat.
Leo Ray gave this ambiguous answer to keep Lord Asher guessing about his true strength.
From the current situation, although it could be determined that Lord Asher of Viennas City was an enemy of the mysterious organization,

Trantor: 549690339
However, this does not mean that the other party is a trustworthy ally.
After all, in essence, at the moment, the rtionship between him and these two is adversarial.
Hehe, young man, you are too modest.
On the other side, Lord Asher still wore a pleasant smile.
He took a sip of the fragrant tea in his cup while casually inquiring, Mr. Christopher, I heard that your hometown is in a remote area of the Kingdom. Your visit to Viennas City must be for some important matter, right?
Hearing this, Leo Ray, who was also sipping tea, slowly put down his teacup.
It was easy to understand that the other party was asking such questions to probe his background.
If he thought in the same position, from the others point of view, he might be a member of the mysterious organization, which was still uncertain.
From this, it can be seen that if he were to reveal any ws, the other party might take action right away.
As a result, it would undoubtedly destroy the previousyout.
Your Excellency, the City Lord, didnt you already know my purpose for this trip?
While still maintaining a smile on his face, Leo Ray responded, I have a unique connection with the coteral family of the Sanders Family. On this trip, I am here to help the coteral family and to take the opportunity to travel and adventure.
Then, Leo Ray continued, At the auction just now, it happened that the City Lord offered a rare opportunity to explore the ancient ruins together, and I was apanied by two renowned Tier 4 Powerhouses and explorers of unknown ancient ruins.
For me, who loves adventure, this is definitely an opportunity not to be missed. Therefore, I took the liberty to bid for it, and I hope that your Excellency will not mind.
Leo Ray answered in such a way for one purpose only: to dispel the other partys doubts.
As long as he could convince Lord Asher that he was on the same side as Master Gael.
Due to their close rtionship.
They would naturally have fewer doubts about him.
Moreover, this exnation could reasonably justify all of his actions.
Hehe, my young friend Christopher, theres no need for a lengthy exnation. Since you are a friend of the coteral family of the Sanders Family, we are on the same side.
On the other hand, Lord Ashers response was swift, continuing to smile, However, you only brought a big-eyed mage as your attendant, and your strength seems somewhat weak.
You should know that recently, due to border conflicts leading to an unstable Kingdom situation, some hidden evil forces are also starting to stir. Be sure to be careful.
Thank you, your Excellency, for your concern.
Taking a sip of fragrant tea, Leo Ray maintained his smile and thought to himself, So he has started probing my strength? It seems that he has notpletely let down his guard against me.
Of course, Leo Ray was naturally prepared for this.
The lower the strength he revealed, the less likely the other party would be on their guard against him.
With this in mind, Leo Ray gently put down his teacup and responded, Dont hide it from your Excellency, I have realized the seriousness of this issue, so I have reached an agreement with Captain Tina of the Blue Rose Knights and Captain Layne of the Broken de Knights.
These two Knight orders will send strong warriors to act as my guards. During the exploration of the ruins, the powerful members of the two Knight orders will also apany us. I hope your Excellency is aware.
So thats it, then I can rest assured.
Hearing this, Lord Asher still wore a pleasant smile.
However, his full-faced smile seemed to contain a hint of warmth that had never been there before, continuing, Lets discuss the specific time for exploring the ruins then.
Since I will be in the surrounding cities during this time, please schedule the time, your Excellency.
Nodding at the other party, Leo Ray responded without hesitation.
At the same time, he couldnt help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
From the others somewhat kind expression, it seemed that he had not been discovered by him.
Then I have no choice but to obey.
ncing at Master Gael next to him, Lord Asher said, We have been busy in the Viennas City Lord Mansion recently, so lets set the time for five dayster. How does this sound to you, young friend Christopher?
So its like this? It seems that they are not in a hurry to push forward with this step, as their financial situation has eased, and the confrontation with the mysterious organization is not yet clear.
Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows, continuing to ponder.
However, this is in line with my n, as I also need to learn more about the mysterious organization and be better prepared to deal with potential attacks.
Furthermore, during this period, my strength can undoubtedly be further enhanced.
With this in mind, Leo Ray picked up the teapot on the table, pouring himself some tea, and said, Your Excellencys arrangement is fine. I will return to Viennas City in five days.
Having received the other partys affirmation, Leo Ray put down the teapot as if it was unintentional.

Trantor: 549690339
Leo Ray slightly turned his head and asked, Your Excellency, I heard that a while ago, the Ancient Chest that will be auctioned off shortly had been attacked by a group of mysterious people. Will they note again to snatch it tonight?
Haha, young friend Christopher, theres no need to worry.
Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City smiled faintly, with an unruffled expression, and replied righteously, Tonight, the inside and outside of Sanders Trading Conference have been heavily defended.
Eight thousand soldiers from the Viennas City Defense Army and several major mercenary organizations currently staying in the city will protect the safety of all guests at the cost of their lives.
What an old fox, knowing that he had set a trap himself to lure the mysterious organization while disregarding the safety of other guests, yet speaking so righteously.
Leo Ray secretly sighed in his heart, It seems that it is already unlikely to get more information from this old fox. I still need to have Kelsey ask Gael, who is involved, about the situation.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray drained the tea in his cup and stood up.
He smiled at the other party and said, Its an honor for me to meet Your Excellency this time. Since the auction is about to begin, I will not bother you anymore. Im looking forward to our adventure with you and Master Gael in five days.
Haha, lets not keep you any longer, young friend Christopher. See you at the auction.
On the other side, Lord Asher grinned and nodded his head.
Leaving the room where the Lord of Viennas City was, under Kelseys guidance, Leo Ray and his group went straight to the hall where the third auction was taking ce.
Shortly after, as they entered the spacious and bright hall, Leo Ray noticed that the area of this unfamiliar auction venue was almost the same as that of the Starry Sky Hall.
However, the brightness was much higher, and the overall structure was rectangr.
At first nce, under the illumination of numerous crystal chandeliers embedded with Light Crystal Stones, the huge hall was filled with a magnificent and dazzling scene, making people somewhat dizzy.
On both sides of the hall stood two rows of milky-white stone pirs, intricately carved with exquisite human reliefs, revealing an artistic atmosphere.
Moreover, the seating in the hall was entirelyposed of booth areas, which were obviously more advanced than the previous Starry Sky Hall.
As for the auction stage, it was located in the front and was currentlypletely covered by arge, red velvet curtain.
In summary, the overall environment here looked like a luxurious theater with a strong artistic atmosphere.
At this moment, many nobles and merchants gathered in the hall, chatting leisurely.
Judging from the rxed and happy atmosphere, no one seemed to realize that a storm of blood and violence was about to hit this ce.
Lord, please follow me.
Kelseys clear voice rang in Leo Rays ears.
They crossed the bustling crowd and came to the seat that Kelsey had arranged in advance. Leo Ray discovered that their location, which was situated in the middle of the booth area and next to a huge stone pir, was very inconspicuous, making it convenient for their uing actions.
On the other side, seeing Leo Raying, Mason Banks and the others from the neighboring table immediately came over to wee him.
This arrangement was naturally made by Leo Ray, who had asked Kelsey to prepare it in advance.
Kelsey, after greeting Leo Ray, picked up her skirt and hurriedly went to find Gael for more information.
Lord, after a series of investigations, I did not find any abnormalities in the booth area of this hall, Mason reported softly to Leo Ray. It seems that the key point should be concentrated in the auction stage area behind the red curtain.
My Lord, I only detected slight energy fluctuations from behind the curtain, Taylor said gruffly, chiming in.Its quite clear now, the front half of this hall will be the main battlefield between Lord of Viennas City and the mysterious powerful organization,
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a contemtive expression.
Then, his pitch-ck eyes moved slightly, and he continued while looking around, When the battle begins, it will inevitably be chaotic. All we need to do is seize the Ancient Chest in the confusion and leave with the panicked crowd.
As for the escape route, its simple. Just find the nearest safe room and use the Returning Crystal to escape. No need to leave Sanders Trading Conference.
Lord, your words are absolutely right.
On the other side, Mason Banks nodded and continued, At that time, the area outside the Sanders Trading Conference will surely be surrounded by Viennas Citys soldiers, which could easily cause unnecessary trouble.
Alright, lets stop here. We just need to wait for the right opportunity.
With that said, Leo Ray casually sat down on the soft sofa.
After looking around, he noticed that Tina of the Blue Rose Knights and Layne of the Broken de Knights were still nearby, waving enthusiastically at them.
Even the Grand Elder of the ckwood n, who had previously been far away, was now ring at them with concealed anger.
As for the plump and wealthy nobleman, he was seated at thest row. Judging from the angry expression on his round face, he didnt seem to be satisfied with his seat.
Just like that, after a while, when all the nobles and merchants had settled in,
Kelsey, who had changed back into her formal attire, came to Leo Ray again before the auction began.
My lord, I have inquired about the trap. The three Tier 4 mercenaries and other Tier 3 mercenaries employed by the Lord of Viennas City seem to have set up a Magic Array that can even withstand a Tier 5 Powerhouse,
Then, Kelseys clear voice entered Leo Rays ear, So, my father has been assigned to thetter half of the venue, responsible for handling emergencies in the Trading Conference, preventing the powerful mysterious organization from causing destruction and dealing with isted enemies.
A Magic Array that can withstand a Tier 5 Powerhouse? Interesting.
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrow and continued, But with this arrangement, the problem of your father has a good solution. Linda and Bianca White under the cloak will deliberately cause amotion outside the venue.
Thank you, Lord!
Hearing this, joy appeared on Kelseys pretty face, nodding repeatedly.
Also, Kelsey, when its time to retreat
Then, Leo Ray told her his entire escape n.
Please rest assured, my lord, I am very familiar with the terrain.
Hearing this, Kelsey nodded confidently, and a lonesome look appeared on her pretty face as she sighed, But I wont be able to see you, my lord, for several days.
Practice well, and when the time is right, Ill take you back to our Territory.
Leo Ray smiled lightly and spoke.
As they finished talking, the curtain on the auction stage slowly opened.
An elderly auctioneer with white hair in a brocade robe appeared in front of everyone.
Dear distinguished guests, wee to the third round of the Viennas City Joint Auction.
The old and sonorous voice rang out, and the old man on the stage smiled.
Is it finally beginning?
Hearing this, an expectant look appeared on Leo Rays face as he wondered to himself, Can the Tier 5 Powerhouse of the mysterious organization deal with the Magic Array capable of withstanding a Tier 5 Powerhouse?
It seems that the City Lords side is also well-prepared. I must say, its quite intriguing to see how the plot will unfold next.

Next, on a stage-like tform.
The white-haired old auctioneer eloquently introduced the items with his old yet magnificent voice.
He showcased magical items such as paintings with magical pigments, prompting amazement from the audience.
The nobles and merchants below were asionally astonished by the colorful items.
However, the overall atmosphere was far less intensepared to the previous two items.
In this process, the most intense bidding was between the rich fat aristocrat and another wealthy merchant over a painting called Backlit Bright Elf Girl..
Eventually, the rich fat aristocrat won the painting for 30,000 Gold Dragons.
Watching the excitement on the aristocrats face, Leo Ray nced at the lifelike girls with pointed ears ying by the river in the painting and couldnt help but sneer.
It seemed that the aristocrat truly got his moneys worth from this trip.
In light of the anticipatory expressions constantly visible on most attendees faces, it was clear that they were all waiting for the emergence of the ancient chest, the final item of the auction.
After all, as soon as this mysterious artifact was discovered, it attracted the attention of unknown forces C surely there was a significant secret hidden inside.
Powerful skills or magic abilities? Rare magical potion forms or medicines? The location of immense treasures?
Perhaps once they acquire it, they could rise to the top in an instant!
Are they all waiting for the ancient chest as expected?
Noticing this, Leo Ray nodded to himself and felt his palms sweat slightly.
Undoubtedly, the appearance of the ancient chest would signal the beginning of an unprecedented storm started by Tier 5 Powerhouses C a storm that most people had not anticipated.
Lord, the thirteen strongmen of the mysterious organization have silently eliminated a team of Viennas City Defense Army archers stationed on the roof of Sanderss Trading Conference, under Clyde Thompson and Gary Lewiss guidance.
As Leo Ray thought about this, Serena rks chilled voice came, Currently, they are entering the conference through the windows of the terrace below!
Finally here?
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded to Taylor, who was hidden behind a pir, signaling him to be ready for battle at any time.
With Taylors position in the blind spot and the help of the Concealment Ring, it was almost impossible for anyone, even that Asura, to detect his presence.
Linda and Bianca White have already gone to the highest exhibition area of the trading conference with Kelseys help, ready to create amotion that would draw Gaels attention at any time.
With everything prepared, they only needed to wait for the Lord of Viennas City and the mysterious strongmen to engage in battle.
The final item making its appearance now is none other than the ancient chest, which was discovered in ancient ruins not long ago! I am sure all our guests present have been eagerly waiting for this moment.
Immediately, the auctioneers booming voice resonated through the entire auction house: Let us unveil the truth behind this mysterious artifact together!
Upon hearing that, all the nobles and merchants down below immediately widened their eyes and stretched their necks in curiosity.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray swallowed a Wind Eye Pill to enhance his vision and watched intently.
For a moment, the entire venue fell silent, with everyones gaze focused on the auction stage.
A chain tter resonated.
Apanied by the rumbling sound of metal chains, a massive stone tform slowly rose from the center of the stage.
Atop the vast tformy a cubic, ck object, approximately one meter in size.
Upon closer inspection, the surface of the ck object was smooth, with asional shes of Magic Flow Light, resembling a colossal magic paper box.
It seems that this is the powerful Magic Barrier that Kelsey mentioned. Rumor has it that even a Tier 5 Powerhouse cannot break this magic barrier with a perfect self-circting system. Additionally, the barrier can maintain a constant weight, making it impossible to move.
As Leo Ray observed, he continued, Unfortunately, although it is incredibly robust, the coverage area is minimal.
Like storage spaces, it can only store lifeless items, which significantly limits its practicality. Its essentially a safe.
Just as Leo Ray pondered over this, the old auctioneer on the stage pped his hands elegantly.
Immediately, several well-trained conference guards stepped out from the left and right passages under the stage to surround the entire tform.
Based on their aura, each guard had an advanced Tier 2 strength, and faint signs of Tier 3 Powerhouses could be discerned among them.
Caught by surprise, the audience became uneasy, and the atmosphere tensed.
Hehe, there is no need to be rmed,dies and gentlemen.
The old auctioneer on the stage raised his hand to signal the audience to calm down and said, You may have heard that this box was the target of an unknown force as soon as it was discovered.

Trantor: 549690339
Therefore, to ensure the safety of everyone and the Ancient Chest, we have made this decision.
Well spoken.
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly pursed his lips and thought to himself, Actually, its just to guard against the strong members of the mysterious organization who may be mingling among the guests.
However, this is clearly not the main force of this trap. It seems that the reason the Lord of Viennas City arranged this is to confuse the mysterious organizations strong members.
Alright, esteemed guests, now please join me in admiring the true face of the Ancient Chest.
The generous and impassioned auctioneer then nodded to several Mages who were standing ready not far away.
Following that, the Mages understood and stepped forward, directlying to the Blue Stone tform at the center of the auction stage.
In an instant, the lofty and distinct arcane chanting resounded.
A momentter, the strange colors flickering on the ck square Barrier had noticeably dimmed by a few degrees.
It seems this should be the spell to remove the Barrier.
Watching the rather magical scene before him, Leo Ray slightly nodded, revealing a thoughtful expression on his face.
ording to Kelseys earlier statement, this kind of special, high-intensity Magic Barrier has a unique sealing and unlocking system.
Each unlocking spell ispletely different and requires multiple people toplete.
Most importantly, this is just one of the protective measures.
From this, one could see that the defensive measures of this Barrier were indeed quiteprehensive.
No wonder the strong members of the mysterious organization havent acted before, as the vice-chairman, Gary Lewis certainly knows better than anyone else the difficulty in unlocking it.
As Leo Ray thought of this.
On the other side, after the Mages on stage had finished casting their spells,
The auctioneer elder slightly nodded and took out a pale purple crystal from his bosom, gently pressing it onto the now dimmed and lightless ck Barrier.
The following second, a crisp sound of shattering ss could be heard.
The ck Barrier on the Blue Stone tform began to copse rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In just a short moment, a deep gray square box appeared before everyones eyes.
Upon close inspection, the box was perfectly square, without any parts like a lid or small drawers, looking very much like a Rubiks cube.
Under the illumination of numerous Light Crystal Stones, its surface reflected a dim and eerie radiance, seemingly absorbing a portion of the light.
At first nce, the material used for the box seemed to be something between metal and crystal, quite magical in nature.
Moreover, it was covered with finely detailed carvings, making it look like a veryplex maze, giving people a sense of inexplicable dizziness at first nce.
Goodness, is this the Ancient Chest?
With the help of the Wind Eye Pill, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a surprised expression as he carefully examined the chest.
Without a doubt, this box was far more mysterious than he had imagined.
Just looking at it from this distance, the box exudes a sense of great time and antiquity, as if it possesses some kind of magic that makes it difficult for people to take their eyes off it. Surely, it is anything but ordinary.
While rubbing his chin, Leo Ray continued to think, Is it really a box for holding things? And which race left it behind?
Most importantly, what kind of secret is hidden within it that makes the mysterious organization so desperate to break in even knowing that this ce is a trap?
While Leo Ray was deep in thought,
On the other side, the old auctioneer on stage spoke slowly, continuing his introduction, As you all can see, this is the Ancient Chest. ording to our Viennas Citys senior archaeologists,
This object is very likely to have originated from the nk Era three thousand years ago, as for which race it belongs to, it remains unknown.
However, by examining the clues left in the ruins, it can be determined that this objectes from a race other than our Human n, Elf Tribe, Dwarf n, and Half-Orc Tribe, making it a truly mysterious item.
After all, during that nk Era, there were not a few races that disappeared without a trace, which further adds to the value of this chest.
Having said that, the auctioneer elder looked at the focused expressions of the nobles and merchants below the stage, smiled slightly, and continued, Additionally, after several attempts, we discovered,
Neither physically nor magically can this box be opened.
The reason we believe it to be a box is because we used an expensive Professional Magic Detection Scroll.
Inside the box, a faint magical reaction was detected, which undoubtedly confirmed there must be some sort of mechanism hidden within.
At this point, the old auctioneer paused again, stroking the white beard on his old face as he continued, Therefore, out of respect for Lord of Viennas City, Your Excellency, we decided that since our Viennas City is indeed incapable of deciphering the secrets within,
It would be better to put this object up for auction, allowing those with destiny topete for it. Perhaps, by doing so, the secrets within would be discovered. Who knows? And, if any guest should rise to prominence through this, do not forget our Viennas City then, hehe.

As soon as the auctioneer said this, the noble and merchant audience couldnt help but cast their fiery gazes toward the ancient box on stage, reflecting a faint light.
There was no need to say more; just from the exterior, the age, and the fact that it was coveted by evildoers, one could absolutely determine that this item was extraordinary!
At this moment, quite a few astute nobles had already begun thinking about how to safely leave Viennas City once they won the auction.
Of course, among the crowd, only Leo Ray and his subordinates knew clearly.
That all of this was just a pretext for the Lord of Viennas City to lure his enemies; it would not really be auctioned off.
However, since these cunning guys have already justified their purpose for auctioning off this Ancient Chest and used an empty check to send a favor
That being the case, even if the mysterious organization attacks, the other nobles and wealthy merchants affected shouldnt be able to me the responsibility on the Lord of Viennas City. I have to say, this Lord is quite a sly fox.
Thinking of this, Leo Rays dark eyes swiveled as he observed the expressions of the surrounding guests while continuing to ponder in his heart.
That being said, although they did not know how much truth and falsehood were in the words of the other party just now.
But if this box really came from the nk Age three thousand years ago.
Then, all of this made sense.
After all, when they had encountered the mysterious organization before, both the ancient battlefield relics and the Elf Relics on Penelope Welbourns territory seemed to be rted to the nk Age three thousand years ago.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, the sound of a mind talk alert suddenly rang out.
Upon connecting, Serena rks solemn voice immediately came through: Lord, these mysterious organizations powerful men have wandered around and finally entered a room behind the main hall of the first-floor entrance from the high-level area of Sanders Trading Conference. As the door was closed too quickly, Ste rk and I were blocked outside and cannot further enter the room to check. Lord, what should we do next?
Understood. Theres no need to act rashly. Just guard outside the door.
After saying these words softly, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a puzzled expression: The auction house is clearly on the underground level; if the other party wants to snatch the Mysterious Box, why would they enter the room on the floor above?
After pondering for a moment, Leo Rays body shook as he suddenly had an enlightened expression.
Well, these guys are nning to take an unconventional path. Theyll open a hole in the floor above and descend vertically from above the auction tform, dropping from the sky to snatch the Ancient Chest!
It seems the battle is about to begin!
As he realized this, a cold sweat trickled down Leo Rays forehead.
Without hesitation, he immediately connected with Linda, Bianca White, and Kelsey, who were waiting outside the auction house, signaling them to start making a scene.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The next second, apanied by a series of huge explosions, an intense explosion sound suddenly erupted outside the auction house.
There was no doubt; this was the sound of the Tier 3 Magic Scroll C Advanced me Burst Bomb used by Leo Rays side.
Who else would use a valuable Tier 3 Magic Scroll as a tool to attract attention? I guess not many people would do it.
Helplesslyughing, Leo Ray slightly looked at Gael, who was sitting in the back row of the venue.
Sure enough, he saw Gael with a nervous expression, leading several teams of Sanders Trading Conference guards, and hurriedly leaving the auction hall.
At the same time, the sessive explosions roared like a Hydro Dragon, instantly causing a calm auction house to be engulfed in a surge of huge waves.
As a result, many people reflexively stood up from their seats, looking around with a bewildered expression.
Whats going on? What happened?
Where are my guards? Protect me quickly!
Could it be someone using the Earth Splitting Skill?
No, thats clearly the sound of a Tyro Magic explosion!
No could it be some people trying to attack in here?
Most of the ordinary-strength nobles and wealthy merchants showed panic-stricken expressions.
On the other hand, those Tier 3 and above noble powers had already pulled out their weapons, gearing up to fight.
For a moment, bursts of formidable auras erupted in the venue like a sudden explosion of mes, stirring up wave after wave of energy fluctuations.
This world revered the strong.
Therefore, although these noble lords usually enjoyed a high standard of living, they were determined in their cultivation practice, no less than ordinary civilian warriors.
On the contrary, due to their abundance of funds that allowed them to purchase high-level equipment and magic medicine, along with elite education, they were much stronger than the average civilian warriors.
This was the gap in resources.
Of course, for someone like Leo Ray, who had no concept of money, it didnt matter as nobody had more resources than him.
Returning to the topic, while the nobles and merchants in the venue were somewhat confused about the current situation.
The auctioneer on stage appeared calm andposed. He stroked his beard lightly and said to the audience with a faint smile: Distinguished guests, please dont worry. His Excellency, the respected Lord of Viennas City, has already made thorough protective measures
However, his words were interrupted.
Boom!
With another deafening explosion.
It was as if a rain of mud and stones fell upon therge auction tform.
In an instant, dust filled the air, and debris sttered.
Arge number of scattered stones heavily struck the surrounding walls and the unprepared crowd in the front row.
The next second, thirteen figures emanating an overwhelming aura.
Appeared on the chaotic stage under the shocked and incredulous gazes of the nobles.
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was hidden in the crowd surrounded by his subordinates, squinted his eyes and appeared nonchnt.
Undoubtedly, a great show was about to begin.

Trantor: 549690339
Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, first floor, a corridor behind the main hall.
After the huge explosion, Garry and Clyde walked out of the room with a calm expression.
At this moment, they had already taken off their ck cloaks and restored their original noble attire, stuffing the eye-catching white masks into their bosom.
However, this scene was caught by a team of Trading Conference guards who came running at the sound of the noise.
Lord Garry, Master Clyde, what is?!
Looking at the white masks in their hands, the leading Guard Captains face revealed a shocked and incredulous expression.
Everyone at the Sanders Trading Conference was familiar with these masks since they belonged to the mysterious organization that aimed to seize the Ancient Chest!
They were the guards who belonged to the direct lineage of the Sanders Family, yet they never expected that their masters would be members of the mysterious organization!
On the other side, Garry and Clydes reactions were swift.
The two exchanged a quick nce and, without answering, revealed sinister expressions and released their attack magic.
In an instant, sharp and edgy earth spears and water des roared past, directly piercing through all the horrified guards, who fell to the ground in messy positions.
For a moment, a heavy scent of blood filled the air.
On the ground, amidst the flowing red, the incredulous dying guards gradually dimming eyes reflected the shapes of two men standing arrogantly, like sneering demons.
After a brief moment, seeing that the guards had all lost their life force, Garrys thin face showed no trace of emotion.
He spat in disdain and said coldly, Only you have yourselves to me for not watching out and showing up at this time.
Next to him, Clyde nced at the corpses on the ground, wearing an equally nonchnt expression.
Turning to Garry, he frowned, But now, how do we get rid of that annoying Gael and Kelsey?
Were in the dark while theyre in the open, there are plenty of ways to deal with them, and they may not even survive this attack, Garry said with a sinister smile.
Good point.
Hearing this, Clyde immediately showed a bright smile.
Soon after, his expression turned grim again, sneering, And that annoying brat, one day Ill find his secret and kill him
However, his menacing words were cut short, his voice suddenly stopping.
A fast-approaching arrow mixed with a chilling wind had swiftly pierced through his neck, marking a deadly red trajectory.
Due to the shocking force of the arrow, it eventually stopped when it nailed to a wall nearby, causing cracks and making a dull humming sound.
As the astonished body fell, a petite figure made its appearance, an icy crisp voice resounding, Ive endured you long enough, those who plot against the City Lord, die!
Witnessing this scene, Garry had no time to react.
Unbeknownst to him, a dazzling short sword had already piercedpletely through his chest, its bloodied sharp de eerily cold.
Drip, drip.
As the shocking red liquid fell, the killer slumped to the ground as well, lifeless.
Behind the corpse, another petite figure, hidden beneath a cloak and identical to the first one, had cold eyes and fair skin that stood out against the red glow on the ground.
At the same time, Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference, one floor below, the Auction House.
When the thirteen awe-inspiring figures descended from the sky and appeared on the stage.
The huge venue suddenly fell silent.
Everyones gaze was fixed on the center of the stage.
Some were frightened, some were confused, and some were filled with hostility.
Without a doubt, this sudden scene was beyond everyones expectations.
Of course, this did not include Leo Ray and his group and the City Lord of Viennas, who were already on guard.
Even so, it was clear to anyone with a discerning eye.
Pure ck cloaks, white masks, and the thick aura of killing that permeated the air.
All of these things pointed to the fact that these uninvited strongmen were not good people, and their objective was the Ancient Chest on the stage!
Uponnding, the group of ck-clothed figures immediately focused their eyes on the Ancient Chest.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
In an instant, two ck-robed figures with extraordinary momentum flew out at an extremely fast speed, heading straight for the Ancient Chest on the blue stone tform.
At the same time, red hexagram arrays that kept rotating appeared beneath the feet of three other ck-robed figures, apanied by a bizarre and high-pitched chanting.
Close to ten gigantic figures, their bodies covered in mes, rapidly materialized in the air.
Soon after, they roared and charged towards the dumbfounded auctioneer on the stage, the auction house mages, and the guards below the stage.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Heavy footsteps echoed. The atmosphere was absolutely terrifying as more than three-meter-high ming giants ran, sparks flying, the air hazy.

Trantor: 549690339
It seemed as if the entire stage was engulfed in raging mes.
Lord, thats a me Giant Demon!
Seeing this, Scarlett blinked her eyes and couldnt help but exim, This me Giant Demon, like the Earth Guardians, belongs to the Advanced Magic Puppets. They have high physical resilience and extremely formidable attacking power.
However, the three mysterious organizations Fire Mages, whose strengths are at the Tier 3 Peak Level, should be unable to summon arge number of these Tier 3 Magic Puppets. They must have used some sort of specially made enhancement artifacts or magic scrolls while summoning to achieve this!
I see.
Hearing this, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes and continued to observe the movements on stage.
From the current situation, the mysterious organizations Tier 5 Powerhouse, No. 7 ck-robed Person, has not revealed any aura, apparently intending to act as a trump card in case of emergencies.
However, due to the mysterious organizations preemptive strike, they still have the upper hand in the situation.
At the next moment, the situation was reversed instantly.
As the chaos unfolded, the two mysterious organization powerhouses that first rushed out approached the Blue Stone tform where the Ancient Chest was located, but before they could do anything.
It was as if they triggered some mechanism, and dazzling purple me pirs suddenly burst out from the surrounding of the Blue Stone tform, spraying directly towards them.
The two mysterious organization powerhouses werent prepared and turned into ash as soon as they touched the purple me pirs, without even letting out a scream.
This scene shocked the nobles and merchants below the stage.
A considerable number of people had already started to flee, madly rushing toward the Auction Houses rear entrance.
However, due to the dense crowd and the narrow exit.
Most of the fleeing people were blocked at the entrance and couldnt move at all,
For a moment, wails and curses were heard continuously.
That Lord of Viennas City sure isnt an ordinary character.
Seeing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly.
On the other side, on the auction stage.
The attacking me Giant Demons were washed away by several massive water curtains that suddenly appeared, extinguishing and disintegrating in mid-air without any strength to fight back, turning back into invisible energy particles.
In the water curtain, an overwhelming aura surged from the old man, his white beard and robe fluttering without wind, giving a sense of being a fairy or a sage.
Lord, the old auctioneer is actually a Tier 4 eight-Star Hydro Great Mage. There must be something fishes with the auction stage, which hid his true strength.
At this point, Taylors surprised voice rang in Leo Rays ears.
No wonder he always seemed calm andposed. Sure enough, not an ordinary person. That said, its no wonder that Tier 4 three-Star Gael was arranged on the periphery, it seems that the Lord of Viennas City has invited several experts.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes and continued to observe the movements on the stage.
At this time, in the auction house, although some people rushed to the exit, there were still many powerful nobles like themselves, sitting in the corners and watching the battle unfold.
Such opportunities are rare, and maybe they could take advantage of the situation to gain some benefits.
After all, the target of the mysterious organization is only the Ancient Chest.
And now, there is still no clear winner between both sides.
Hehe, since youvee, leave your lives behind.
At this moment, a heartyughter echoed through the entire hall. It was the voice of the Lord of Viennas City.
As soon as theughter fell, four semi-transparent barriers appeared around the remaining eleven mysterious organization powerhouses.
At the same time, four powerful figures, including the Tier 4 eight-Star old man, flew out one after another,nding at the four corners of a square.
The next moment, Magic Arrays shed under the feet of the four powerhouses, already connecting with the barriers.
With a massive influx of magic power, a semi-transparent square rapidly formed in the blink of an eye, wrapping all the mysterious organizations powerhouses inside, like a giant cage.
At the very moment the square cage was formed, a powerful st of energy swept across the entire venue, blowing over sofas and wooden tables in the front row, and leaving the ce in a mess.
Even the Trading Conferences security personnel below the stage were blown off bnce, barely able to stand steadily.
As the dust settled, Leo Ray noticed-
Apart from the old auctioneer and the Lord of Viennas City himself, there were two snowy-haired old men among the four powerhouses on stage. Judging from their auras, they were no weaker than the Tier 4 three-Star Lord of Viennas City and must have reached the senior powerhouse level of Tier 4 five-Star or above.
Furthermore, around the four Tier 4 powerhouses, nearly twenty Tier 3 Mage powerhouses took to the stage one after another, disying a series of small Hexagram Magic Arrays under their feet.

Trantor: 549690339
For a moment, with the continuous chanting of high-pitched incantations, it felt as if it were a series of rotating gears.
Small magic arrays connected with each other to form medium-sized magic arrays, which then formedrge magic arrays
In a short while, dozens of multicolored magic arrays quickly formed a perfect closed loop on the auction stage, like arge, intricate machine that was too much for the eyes to take in.
Since all of this happened in the blink of an eye, most of the people present didnt react until it was toote.
The originally semi-transparent Magic Cage was suddenly coated in ayer of shimmering yellow, light blue, red, and green metallic hues, appearing unbreakable.
My Lord, this is the Four Realms Magic Killing Array!
Soon after, Scarletts surprised voice rang in Leo Rays ear.
Scarlett leaned a little closer to Leo Ray and continued, This magic array is formed by powerful earth, water, fire, and wind mages as the arrays eyes, with the assistance of several other mages, forming arge magic array.
Actually, calling it a purely functional magic array is not entirely urate, as it also possesses the functions of defensive and offensive magical barriers. So, it is more appropriate to call it aprehensive magical barrier.
I see.
Listening to Scarletts somewhat convoluted exnation, Leo Ray couldnt help but ponder.
In this world, the line between magic arrays and magic barriers is actually quite simple and easy to understand.
Put simply, a magical barrier is formed by thebination of multiple functional magic arrays.
These single magic arrays can also function independently, disying impressive abilities.
For example, the manufacturing magic array unique to the Lords Mansion, the alchemists refining magic array, and the sewage treatment magic array.
Of course, there are also the moremon ones, such as the condensation magic arrays that automatically unfold when casting most attack spells, increasing the spells power and casting speed.
So, this Four Realms Magic Killing Array not only has the function of trapping these mysterious organization fighters, but also directly releasing offensive magic to attack the enemies inside?
Having thought of this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and revealed an interested look.
Exactly, my Lord.
Scarlett nodded her head heavily, and with a flick of her mind, a small round cream cake with a bite taken out of it appeared in her hand.
As she took another bite, she continued, The most crucial part is that I have only seen glimpses of this powerful magic array in the Grand Attic Library of the Magic Tower. It is said that the elf tribe, who are close to nature, can master this special magic, and I didnt expect that it could also be used among the human race.
However, judging from Lord Asher Porter of Viennas Citys somewhat struggling expression, it seems that he has only recently learned it.
I see, no wonder he invited several Tier 4 Powerhouses and some Tier 3 Powerhouses, exhausting the treasury of a medium-sizedmercial city lord C it seems that he also added a few expensive magic courses.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully, then unexpectedly flicked Scarletts forehead.
This girl, usually dazed when doing other things, was always a beat slower in response. However, when it came to using the storage ring to hold cakes, she was self-taught and faster than anyone else.
Looking at Scarletts puzzled and watery eyes, Leo Ray slightly pursed his lips and refocused his attention on the auction stage.
At this point, Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City and his allies not only trapped all the mysterious organization fighters, but even the blue stone tform not far away that held the Ancient Chest was surrounded by a small protective barrier, which had be part of the Four Realms Magic Killing Array.
Moreover, the area around the blue stone tform was still filled with eerie purple mes.
To turn a Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse into ashes in an instant, it was clearly not an ordinary trap.
This old fox has made quite a foolproof defense. It seems that only when both sides suffer heavy losses can we seize the Ancient Chest.
Thinking to this point, Leo Rays dark eyes narrowed slightly as he continued to observe.
On the other side, on the vast auction stage, under themand of the leading ck-robed figure, the remaining ten mysterious organization fighters began to show their prowess, attacking the surrounding magical barriers.
For a moment, the release of various martial arts and magic produced colorful energies.
Especially the two Tier 4 physical fighters, one wielding a wide-de sword and the other wielding a warhammer, their momentum was quite remarkable.
However, they only left a shallow mark on the barrier, which was quickly repaired by the ever-supplied magic power.
Seeing this, Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City continued to output magic power into the barrier.
Whileughing at the trapped mysterious organization fighters, he said, Haha, youre just struggling in vain, a bunch of despicable scum. Let your lives repay the debts between us.
After speaking, Lord Asher Porter didnt hesitate to nod at the other three Tier 4 mages around him.
The next second, the magic arrays spinning beneath the feet of the four people suddenly shone brightly.
Suddenly, within the square magic cage, arge number of earth spikes, water dragons, fire phoenixes, and wind des took turns attacking.
The intersection of various magics set off deadly magical waves, making peoples eyes dazzle.
Feeling the intense magical fluctuations, even the nobles and merchants trying to escape stopped their steps and watched this rare spectacle.
In the crowd, the ckwood n Grand Elder had just been promoted to a Tier 4 Powerhouse and couldnt help swallowing his saliva.
Without a doubt, under such high-intensity magic bombardment, even he would only be able to withstand it for a few seconds.
At this moment, almost everyone unanimously believed that the ck-robed fighters who had intruded were about to be wiped out all at once.
However, only Leo Ray, standing leisurely in the corner, knew clearly.
That this battle had only just begun.

At this moment, under the constant exchange of deadly magic spells.
It was impossible to see clearly inside the Magic Cage, which was shimmering with a metallic luster of four colors.
However, most of the people present still believed unanimously.
That those mysterious organization powerhouses couldnt possibly survive such intense magical bombardment.
After all, thebined magic casting involved 4 Tier 4 Mage powerhouses and nearly 20 Tier 3 Mage powerhouses, making this a truly luxurious lineup!
But soon after, as the torrential spell attacks gradually subsided.
Allowing the scene within the Magic Cage to be clear once again.
Everyone showed an incredulous expression, hardly daring to believe their own eyes.
Inside the semi-transparent cube, the 11 mysterious organization members dressed in ck robes stood arrogantly together, forming a circle, and werepletely unharmed!
How can this be? What exactly happened?!
Thebined attack of 4 Tier 4 powerhouses and 20 Tier 3 powerhouses had no effect?!
My goodness, am I dreaming? Its like seeing a giant dragon
Confusion reigned all around.
A tense atmosphere began to spread silently through the venue.
Lord, it looks like the Tier 5 powerhouse has opened an energy barrier, covering all those other ck-robed people in it.
At this moment, Taylors rough voice reached Leo Rays ears.
An energy barrier?
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a pondering expression.
In this world, both physical powerhouses and magic powerhouses can acquire new abilities after reaching a certain stage.
For example, after reaching 1-star Tier after Tier 1, an energy vortex forms inside your body to mobilize internal energy, enhancing your senses in the process.
And after ascending to Tier 3, a visible energy shield can be formed outside the body, further increasing ones defensive ability.
Furthermore, the energy shield has istion effects for temperature regtion and protection against rain, snow and water.
This is why Leo Ray was able to walk on water after ascending to Tier 3.
Additionally, at this stage, magic powerhouses can also condense magic wings and use the low-altitude flight skill to further increase their speed and tactical flexibility.
As for the energy barrier mentioned by Taylor, its a magical ability that can be mastered by Tier 5 powerhouses.
At this level, which most powerhouses can only look up to in awe.
A Tier 5 powerhouses control over their own energy has reached a terrifying level that ordinary people can hardly understand.
Furthermore, the energy produced by a Tier 5 powerhouse is enough to disrupt space and reduce enemy damage to some extent.
Thus, creating a solid energy barrier made of pure energy is a trivial matter.
This kind of solid energy barrier that can protect multiple people is far superior to the magic shields released by ordinary mages. Its likeparing a dragon to ame horse, utterly iparable.
That must be why those mysterious organization members are unharmed.
As Leo Ray thought this.
On the other side, Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City, on the auction stage, looked incredulously shocked.
At the same time, several other Tier 4 mages also started to exchange bewildered nces.
Anyone who ascends to the Tier 4 level is like a dragon among men, with knowledge and experience far beyond ordinary Tier 3 powerhouses.
This is why all four of them clearly understood in their hearts.
Only a Tier 5 powerhouse could have remained unharmed after the intensive magical attacks just now!
Realizing this, cold sweat dripped quietly from the foreheads of the four Tier 4 powerhouses.
Now, in order to stabilize the morale of the Tier 3 powerhouses.
Although the four of them didnt show any emotion on their faces, their hearts were already stirring up a storm.
Although this formation was said to be able to deal with Tier 5 powerhouses, that was only when everyone was fully prepared and fully trained.
But now, not only City Lord Asher, but also the majority of the Tier 3 Mage powerhouses present, had only just barely reached the level required for a sessful formation, and were far from proficient in it.
Its important to know that a full-powered attack from a Tier 5 powerhouse could kill any of them with just a casual move!
I never thought that a Tier 5 powerhouse would actually appear
At this moment, Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City had mixed feelings.
Originally, he intended to catch the fish in the barrel and avenge the two family elders.
However, from the current situation, it seems that he might have brought the disaster upon himself instead.
Everyone, we must not let them break the formation, or the consequences will be unthinkable!
Thinking of this, the sweaty City Lord Asher steeled his heart and said in a deep voice, Its time to use that!
After finishing speaking, Ashers mind moved, and a magic medicine with a strong exotic aroma appeared in his sweaty palm.
Without hesitation, he swallowed it.
At the same time, three other Tier 4 mages with solemn expressions also made the same move.
The next second, bursts of strong momentum erupted from all four of them.
So its a magic medicine to temporarily increase strength? Its a Tier 3 version, it looks like the City Lord is prepared to go all out.

Trantor: 549690339
In the chaotic crowd, Leo Rays gaze was indifferent, and he murmured to himself in his heart.
On the vast auction stage, as the four of them took the magic medicine at the same time, a very powerful aura instantly erupted from the leading No. 7 ck-robed Person inside the cage-like barrier.
Without any warning, a heavy, chromatic all-metal long-handle battle axe suddenly shed out of his hand.
In an instant, the original No. 7 ck-robed Person on the ground suddenly turned into a phantom, and with the speed of a sudden thunderp, he appeared above the Magic Cage where the Lord of Viennas City was.
Bang!
The Giant Axe was swung out fiercely, creating a dazzling, fierce half-moon, shing directly towards the metallic magic barrier wall.
For a moment, the shrill hum of slicing through the air and the crashing sound of the axe breaking the wall intertwined.
The sound was so loud that it was like a rolling thunder suddenly exploding beside the ears, causing many of the nobles on the scene to tightly cover their own ears and look painfully at the nearly deafening noise.
This sudden change caused the subordinates around Leo Ray to reveal a chilling look and move closer to Leo Ray.
On the stage, the seemingly indestructible Magic Cage immediately showed a huge visible crack, like the earth cracking open when drynds crack, making the square barrier seem shaky.
At the same time, Lord Asher, the old Auctioneer, and two elderly Great Mages who were at the corners of the formation, involuntarily trembled, obviously being affected by the powerful impact.
Some of the Tier 3 mages behind them even directly spat out a mouthful of blood, staining their magic robes.
Dont panic! Repair and attack with full force!
At this moment, Lord Asher, with a pale face, formed a series of hand seals and tried his best to facilitate the process.
Out of the four Tier 4 powerhouses, he was the one who suffered the most severe impact.
It seemed that the No. 7 ck-robed Person with his astonishing perception had noticed his weakness and targeted him for the attack.
There was no doubt that if they hadnt taken the temporary power-boosting magic medicine just now, the barrier would have been broken by that terrifying figure by now.
Bang!
At the same time, as Lord Asher desperately called out, the thunderous second axe from No. 7 ck-robed Person had already arrived whistling.
This axe caused the already shaky barrier to crack further like a fishing, and the shiny metallic luster on it had already be extremely dim.
At the same time, Lord Ashers body trembled, and his face became even uglier.
Meanwhile, those Tier 3 Mages who had suffered two consecutive heavy blows, as many as seven or eight had already copsed to the ground, their lives hanging in the bnce.
However, the repair and attack of the magical protective barrier had already begun.
In an instant, various earth spikes, water dragons, fire phoenixes, and wind des whistled, once again sweeping like a sudden downpour towards the mysterious organizations powerhouses inside the barrier.
This time, since No. 7 ck-robed Person was in an attacking state, he didnt unleash his Energy Barrier.
Five of the mysterious organizations Tier 3 Peak Powerhouses with lower magic resistance could hardly withstand such high-intensity magic attacks and fell to the ground screaming one after another.
By now, there were only six members of the mysterious organization left, out of the original thirteen.
They were the No. 7 ck-robed Person, two Tier 4 Powerhouses No. 40 and No. 51, and three Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses who had first released the me Giant Demons.
Seeing that despite his personal involvement, deaths and injuries continued to escte, No. 7 ck-robed Person let out a deep growl and swung the third axe with an overwhelming momentum toward the slowly repairing barrier wall!
Bang!
Crash!
The next second, the crisp sound of breaking shattered, countless barrier shards scattered, and then dissipated into the air.
For a moment, the audience was silent again.
At this point, even the Tier 2 nobles could see the situation, and their faces were filled with unrestrained fear.
A three-time axe blow shattered the magic array jointly built by four Tier 4 Powerhouses and nearly 20 Tier 3 Powerhouses What kind of power could aplish such a feat other than a Tier 5 Powerhouse, who could single-handedly take on the adult Giant Dragon?!
A Tier 5 Powerhouse Why would one appear here? You know, even the Royal Family has only two Tier 5 Powerhouses under theirmand!
Its over, Lord Ashers side is clearly at a great disadvantage!
s, the mysterious Ancient Chest will ultimately fall into the hands of these ck-robed viins.
Shush! Dont talk nonsense, just run!
From then on, the scene became chaotic again, with more nobles and merchants frantically rushing towards the exit.
However, because of the deafening noise they had heard, arge number of outer guards, under the coordination of theirmanders, began to move towards the auction hall.
As a result, both sides happened to face each other in the corridor near the exit, unwilling to give way to each other and unable to move.
On the auction stage, after the barrier was broken.
Although their hearts were shocked, the four Tier 4 Powerhouses such as the Lord of Viennas City still reacted very quickly.
They used the flying technique to widen the distance while starting to unleash their own magic.
For these powerful Mages, once that physical No. 7 ck-robed Person got close, it would naturally be disastrous.

Have the children had enough fun? Tonight, everyone here will die!
A cold, neutral voice echoed as the colossal No. 7 ck-robed Person, like a meteor, shot out and directly headed for the auctioneer, who reacted a littlete.
Great Waterfall Torrential Wall!
Seeing the No. 7 ck-robed Person charging at him, the auctioneer, a Tier 4 Eight-star powerhouse, narrowed his eyes.
He swiftly retreated while once again unleashing a massive surge of water, attempting to stop the enemys advance.
However, amidst the sshing water, the powerful water curtain that had just killed nearly ten me Giant Demons instantly just moments ago was now like a gentle breeze, easily broken through and failing to stop the No. 7 ck-robed Person in the slightest.
Lion and Tiger Breaking sh!
On the other side, a deep roar resounded.
An overwhelming aura instantly swept out from the No. 7 ck-robed Person, turning the battle-ax that was swung downward into an extremely lethal giant ax de that roared past.
The giant ax de formed by energy was like a roaring monster, crazily assaulting the auctioneer!
Water Wheel Protective Wall! Water Mirror Wall! Water Dragon Barrier!
Sensing the deadly danger, the auctioneer, a Hydro Great Mage, was terrified and consecutively cast several powerful defensive spells.
In an instant, a series of thick water walls rose up one after another, with violent waves surging above the auction tform and water vapor filling the air.
However, all of it still couldnt stop the energy wave from advancing, and amid the scattering water droplets,
The horrified auctioneer was shed to the ground like a ragged sack, sshing waves of crimson blood.
At the same time, several Tier 3 mercenary mages who were unable to dodge at the edge were also sacrificed without even letting out a single grunt under the giant de.
For a moment, the entire venue was in chaos once more.
Undoubtedly, with just one strike, the No. 7 ck-robed Person toppled a defensively-skilled Tier 4 Eight-star Hydro Great Magician, leaving his life hanging in the bnce!
Is this the strength of a Tier 5 Powerhouse? So terrifying!
Its too horrifying, just too horrifying!
Were finished! Everyone is going to die here!
Oh God, who can save us?
Stop dreaming! This isnt a battlefield! In such a small space, only a Tier 5 Powerhouse can withstand another Tier 5 Powerhouse. How could there be a second Tier 5 Powerhouse in this auction house?!
Amidst the chaos in the venue,
Leo Rays ears once again heard Taylors rough voice, Lord, the old water magician auctioneer still has a breath left, but he haspletely lost his fighting ability.
Moreover, although No. 7 ck-robed Person appears very dominant, my subordinate can clearly sense that he has already consumed a lot of energy within the Barrier.
Furthermore, his weapon is far inferior to the Dragon sh Sword. If we take action now, my subordinate can defeat him in a short period of time!
No rush. The bizarre mes on that Blue Stone tform are still burning.
At this moment, Leo Rays eyes were slightly squinted as he carefully observed the movements of both sides, raising his eyebrows: Let him help us break through the Purple mes first.
Undoubtedly, Leo Rays heart understood clearly.
If they intervened at this moment when both sides still had strength remaining, those who would suffer casualties could very likely be the powerhouses on their side who are caught in the middle.
On the other hand, the No. 7 ck-robed Person had just knocked down the elder auctioneer and was about to change his trajectory, nning to fly towards the weakest Lord of Viennas City.
However, at this moment, the attack magic of the three Tier 4 Powerhouses, including the Lord of Viennas City, came roaring.
Earth Dragon Sudden Strike!
Fire Phoenix Exhtion!
Wind Demon Strangtion!
However, the three powerful spells, each capable of swallowing an entire mid-size Defense Army squad,
only stirred up a subtle ripple on the semi-transparent energy shield around the No. 7 ck-robed Person, clearly achieving little effect.However, seizing this opportunity, the slippery Lord of Viennas City had already joined forces with two other Great Mages and the remaining Tier 3 mercenary mages tounch another attack on the ck-robed Persons.
What are you waiting for, hurry up and take the Ancient Chest!
After roaring at the strongmen of the mysterious organization, No. 7 ck-robed Person once again turned into a phantom and charged towards the Lord of Viennas Citys side.
Upon hearing this, Number 40 ck-robed Person and Number 51 ck-robed Person exchanged nces.
Then, they rushed towards the center of the stage, where the Blue Stone tform was surrounded by purple mes as the Barrier had already disappeared.
The next moment, the two Tier 4 Powerhouses, surrounded by dense energy, approached the bewitching mes, their energy immediately collided with the mes, and emitted sizzling burning noises.
In an instant, a strange burnt smell filled the air, and thick smoke began to rise.
Although the two did not turn into ashes like the previous Tier 3 powerhouses, they still could not get close to the Blue Stone tform at all.
After a stalemate, they reluctantly retreated.
At this time, Leo Ray, who was watching the battle from afar, noticed.
These purple mes not only hindered peoples physical progress, but also rendered the storage space function of the Ancient Chest ineffective.
A bunch of useless people!
On the other side, after No. 7 ck-robed Person overpowered a Mage elder with the force of thunder, he shouted: Hold off thest two people, leave the Ancient Chest to me!
Understood!
Shaking their heads unwillingly, Number 40 and Number 51 raised their weapons and led the remaining three Tier 3 powerhouses towards Lord Asher Porter and the others.
In a blink of an eye, No. 7 ck-robed Person, carrying a surge of energy on his body, quickly approached the Blue Stone tform.
This time, the bewitching mes were still burning on No. 7 ck-robed Persons body,
However, the result was that the powerful energy enveloping No. 7 ck-robed Person obviously overwhelmed the purple mes.
As the two energiespeted, the purple mes on the outeryer began to slowly extinguish.
At this moment, although No. 7 ck-robed Persons expression could not be seen, the slightly slow movements revealed that it was undoubtedly consuming a lot of energy.
Nevertheless, as No. 7 ck-robed Person continued to forge ahead, the Ancient Chest was now only a step away!
Once I get the Ancient Chest, you will all die!
At this time, a cold disguised voice echoed through the hall.
Hearing this, the sinister faces hidden behind the masks of the other ck-robed Persons revealed increasingly twisted smiles.
On their side, there was a Tier 5 Powerhouse present; who could stop their progress?Meanwhile, Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City and the other surviving mercenary Mage powerhouses who were fighting the ck-robed Persons were overwhelmed with fear.
Without a doubt, once the Ancient Chest was obtained, the opponents would show no mercy, and the first to die would be them!
At the same time, the numerous nobles below the stage showed the same expression.
This Tier 5-level ck-robed Person had killed so many of hisrades.
It seemed that he intended to vent his anger on the people below!
At this moment, in the face of extreme fear, everyone unconsciously began to pray in their hearts: God! Save us!
Taylor, its time!
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled faintly and ordered softly.
Yes, my Lord!
Instantly, a piercing sound of a dragons roar rang out from the Dragon-ying Giant Sword.
Taylor, who was ready to strike, suddenly turned into a dazzling meteor and sted straight towards No. 7 ck-robed Person on the stage.

Chapter 336: Chapter 311: Fifth-Rank Powerhouse VS Fifth-Rank Powerhouse5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
In just a moment, Taylor, emanating a tremendous aura, held the Dragon-ying Greatsword in both hands and appeared above No. 7 ck-robed Person with lightning-fast speed.
In an instant, a loud dragon roar mixed with the piercing sound of the sword cutting through the air echoed throughout the hall.
Next, a dazzling silver light shed, and the howling Dragon sh Sword carrying the force of ten thousand jin shed down at No. 7 ck-robed Person!
Tier 5 Powerhouse?! How is that possible?!
On the other side, although No. 7 ck-robed Person was greatly shocked, his reaction was still swift.
His face hidden under the mask immediately revealed a boiling killing intent, and he didnt choose to block.
Instead, with a powerful push from his legs, the full-metal long-handled axe in his hand swung out another earth-splitting crescent to face the iing attack head-on.
Boom!
A deafening explosion apanied by dazzling sparks ensued.
The colorful sword and axe des refused to yield to each other, and they were locked in a stalemate mid-air.
At the same time, two powerful energies visible to the naked eye surged crazily from Taylor and No. 7 ck-robed Person, consuming each other and colliding violently in mid-air.
For a time, the vast tumultuous energy, like a thousand-meter-high tidal wave, continuously spread out violently around the two peoples center.
The whole hall was engulfed in such a fierce gale that it was almost impossible to keep ones eyes open.
Caught off-guard, the Lord of Viennas City and the other ck-robed People who were in fierce battles nearby.
The weaker ones found their energy shields shattered instantly, leaving their bodies with bloody shes cut by the fierce wind, struggling to stand steady.
Even the trading conference guards who hadnt been put to use under the auction stage.
Some of them were directly mmed into the walls by the oing hurricane, copsing to the ground and fainting afterward.
Meanwhile, in the center of the storm, the standoff between Taylor and No. 7 ck-robed Person was drawing to an end.
Under Taylors relentless pressure, the No. 7 ck-robed Person was shocked to discover.
That the Tier 4 Exquisite Battle Axe in his hand, forged by a famous dwarf craftsman, had begun to show signs of breaking
A Tier 5 weapon?!
Noticing this, the formerly arrogant and bloodthirsty No. 7 ck-robed Person was dumbfounded by the shock.
Only a cksmith with a Tier 5 strength level could craft a Tier 5 level of equipment.
Moreover, aside from the pathetically low sess rate and the extremely rare and costly blueprints, the materials required alone would take a Tier 5 powerhouse years of life-threatening trials to gather.
As a result, obtaining a Tier 5 weapon was extremely difficult.
This was precisely why Tier 5 equipment was called the National Guardian Divine Weapon.
It was worth noting that the Coldme Kingdom, which had been established for over six hundred years, only possessed two Tier 5 weapons.
Who on earth is this guy?! I am very familiar with the Tier 5 powerhouses of Coldme, but I have never seen such a character before!
As he thought this, a cold sweat trickled down from behind the mask of No. 7 ck-robed Person.
By now, the No. 7 ck-robed Person clearly understood.
Although the enemys strength was equal to his, and they were both power-type powerhouses.
Due to the gap in equipment, even if he were at his peak, his chances of winning in a one-on-one fight were very slim.
Not to mention, he had already consumed a significant amount of energy.
No. 7 ck-robed Person didnt find Taylors sudden attack inappropriate.
After all, deception was an inherent part of warfare, and if the roles were reversed, his attack would have been even more ruthless.
The so-called kind-hearted powerhouses had all fallen under his feet.
It seemed that both Taylor and the possible master hiding behind him knew this principle well.
Whatever the case, from the current situation, there was clearly an independent third party, a mysterious force here!
Could it be that besides the Coldme Royal Family that needs to be guarded against, there is another massive force undetected in this kingdom? Who could be behind this strange Tier 5 powerhouse?!
As the No. 7 ck-robed Persons emotions surged,
On the other side, the long-haired and bushy-bearded Taylor roared, once again unleashing his energy to a terrifying new level.
Following that, the light around Taylors body became increasingly radiant, and he forcefully wielded the Dragon-ying Greatsword in both hands.
The next second, No. 7 ck-robed Person, caught off-guard, could no longer resist and trembled. Gritting his teeth, he retreated step by step under the weight of such a crushing impact.
With every step his footnded, a deep footprint was left on the specially crafted stone auction tform until he finally stopped after retreating more than ten steps.
Since everything happened in the blink of an eye,
By the time the battling Lord of Viennas City, the other ck-robed People, and the aristocrats and merchants beneath the stage reacted,
Taylor had already knocked the once overbearing No. 7 ck-robed Person, who had total control, over ten meters away with a thunderous momentum.
At this moment, it was evident to the observant that Taylor had the absolute upper hand!
The second Tier 5 powerhouse? Oh, my heavens! The second Tier 5 powerhouse has really appeared!

Chapter 337: Chapter 311: Fifth-Rank Powerhouse VS Fifth-Rank Powerhouse5K_2
Trantor: 549690339
Am I dreaming? In just a short while, Ive seen two Tier 5 Powerhouses that ordinary people cant even see once in a lifetime!
What a thrilling night! In any case, its great that were saved!
ording to my observation, this Tier 5 Powerhouse is not one of the two who are loyal to the royal family. Who exactly is he?
God bless! No matter who he is, he and his master behind him are the saviors of tonight!
For a moment, the whole scene was buzzing again.
Both the Lord of Viennas Citys side and the many nobles and merchants below couldnt help but show a hint of ecstasy as if they had survived a disaster.
Although they did not know the background of this newly emerged Tier 5 Powerhouse.
But from the other partys actions, they could see that it was obviously an existence opposed to the ck-robed People!
However, amidst the surprise, the few noble powerhouses near the front row saw that a group of Trading Conference guards, like broken kites, were thrown fiercely against the wall by the storm, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
They couldnt help but swallow their saliva. Just the aftermath of one collision could cause damage like powerful magic.
The strength of a Tier 5 Powerhouse is indeed terrifying.
As for those other smug mysterious organization powerhouses, hidden under their masks were faces of disbelief and shock. Their mouths opened wide, and the ferocious smiles they had just now turned into uncontroble panic.
They never expected that tonight, a powerhouse capable of repelling the Seventh Asura would appear!
ck-robed Person, remember, this is Viennas City, under the protection of the Coldme Royal Family, not a ce for you to trample at will.
Then, a rough voice rang out, and Taylor, who was standing next to the Blue Stone tform with his giant sword in hand, spoke indifferently.
As soon as these words came out, they caused another stir in the audience.
So its the royal familys people? That would exin everything!
I knew it! It had to be the royal family; otherwise, no one would possess such a powerful deterrent!
Hahaha, it seems we are really saved tonight!
Seeing this, Leo Ray, who was hiding in the corner, smiled faintly and nodded in satisfaction.
Unquestionably, Taylors misleading words were naturally part of the script arranged by Leo Ray in advance.
Before that, through several encounters with the mysterious organization, plus the information provided by Orion Wolfe and others, along with the analysis of the current situation.
He had alreadye to a conclusion.
That is, the mysterious organization and the Coldme Royal Family are definitely not the same force.
Otherwise, with the strength of the mysterious organization, the Coldme Kingdom would have already defeated the Saint Night Kingdom across from them.
Why would there be tense border wars, royal power struggles, and the princess fleeing far away at present?
From this, it can also be inferred that.
The reason why the mysterious organization attacked Viennas City so aggressively is obviously because the Coldme Royal Family is currently in a difficult self-help situation.
And Taylors confusing words, without a doubt, can to a certain extent divert the other partys attention.
It makes the focus of the mysterious organization return to the Coldme Royal Family, and even directly provoke disputes between the two sides, which is still unknown.
After all, the princes of the Coldme Royal Family are currently divided into several factions, all of which are in a hostile and ipatible state.
It is possible for any one of them to seek external forces for help, and there is no way to verify the authenticity of Taylors words.
In any case, as long as the Coldme Royal Family and the mysterious organization continue to fight, it will naturally give me more time to grow.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray smiled faintly and yfully said in his heart, But this time, I managed to save some face for the Coldme Royal Family. Im sure Princess Ariel Watson would be grateful if she knew.
On the other side, amidst the mess of the auction tform
Hearing Taylors words, the gloomy face of No.7 ck-robed Person hidden beneath his mask twitched involuntarily, and his heart instantly became dubious.
Of course, he wouldnt easily believe Taylors words.
However, speaking of which.
The Coldme Royal Family has been in existence for over six hundred years, with a very impressive foundation.
Even if there were one more Tier 5 Powerhouse as an external helper, it would not be impossible.
But why would the other party reveal this at such an asion? Is it meant to deter the organization?
In any case, I must investigate the Coldme Royal Family more thoroughly when I return.
Just as No.7 ck-robed Person was pondering this.
Right in front of him, Taylor had already stepped on the fierce wind and rushed forward again.
They saw his sturdy palm holding the giant sword in both hands, creating a dazzling sword curtain as it swung, carrying the sound of a dragons roar and shing heavily at the iing attack!
Dragon-breaking Fierce sh!
At the same time, the pupils of the No.7 ck-robed Person shrunk beneath his mask. Not daring to be careless, an overwhelming energy erupted from his body and then focused on the giant axe in his hand.
For a moment, the axe light tore through the air, carrying a high-pitched tiger roar and emitting a harsh buzzing sound.
Fierce Tiger Sky Break!
In an instant, another earth-shattering noise echoed as two vast energy waves, like a dragon and a tiger battling each other, roared and spread out around them.

This time, the two did not stalemate but retreated after a single strike, soaring into the sky andunching a second round of attacks.
Next came the third round, the fourth round, the fifth round
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In just a few seconds, the two transformed into shooting stars, shing with each other more than ten times.
With each thunderous explosion, the gales generated by their collisions left deep cracks in the surrounding walls and auction tform, showcasing their astonishing power.
The intense collisions caused the entire venue to shake, andrge amounts of rubble began to fall from the sky.
In an instant, dust filled the air, apanied by a whirlwind of sand and dirt.
Meanwhile, the battle between the Lord of Viennas City and the mysterious organizations powerhouses continued.
However, they all unanimously distanced themselves from the center of the battle between the two.
At this moment, everyone present, including the battling Lord of Viennas City and other mysterious organization powerhouses, felt the sharp gales sweeping over them.
Without a doubt, their hearts were profoundly shaken by the scene before them.
It was undeniable that if anyone were to be caught in the battle between the two, even a Tier 4 Powerhouse would be torn to shreds in an instant!
Is this what a battle between Tier 5 Powerhouses of the power lineage looks like? There are no shy skills, only pure shes of energy.
Amidst the restless crowd, Leo Ray squinted at the high tform not far away.
Underneath the thickyer of dust, even though he could only asionally see the sparks generated by the collision of weapons, the sensation of the overwhelming energy fluctuations still stirred his blood.
On the other side, in the center of the battle.
No. 7 ck-robed Person became increasingly rmed as the battle progressed. The sudden appearance of a Tier 5 Powerhouse seemed to draw from an endless source of power, growing stronger with every fight.
Each collision felt like striking an immovable mountain, causing a constant numbness in his hand.
Most crucially, the Tier 4 Exquisite Long-handled Axe in the hands of No. 7 ck-robed Person was nowpletely warped, seemingly on the verge of shattering at any moment.
If I had a suitable weapon, perhaps I could continue to fight, but now, I can only stop here. Ill have to carefully investigate the Coldme Royal Family before making any other ns!
With that thought, No.7 ck-robed Person let out a furious roar, unleashing another Lion and Tiger Breaking sh, sending out a massive axe de in the process.
Seizing the opportunity as Taylor defended, No. 7 ck-robed Person used all his might to fly over to the other powerful warriors of the mysterious organization.
Meanwhile, Taylors reaction was incredibly swift, immediately transforming into a silver sh and rushing forward.
However, when Taylors deadly sword whistled through the air,
No. 7 ck-robed Person, along with the remaining two Tier 4 ck-robed People, had already activated a light grey magical scroll that appeared in their hands.
In an instant, they transformed into a curtain of light and disappeared on the spot.
At the same time, before the dust from the battle had settled,
a petite and delicate figure hidden beneath a cloak had already dashed towards the extinguished Blue Stone tform, quietly pocketing the Ancient Chest within her bag.
Lord, its a teleportation magic scroll!
Seeing this, Scarlett beside Leo Ray eximed, That despicable fellow escaped again!
Forget it. A Tier 5 Powerhouse must have some life-saving cards in hand. Besides, our goal today has already been achieved.
Looking at Ste rk, who had returned with the Ancient Chest with a dusty face, Leo Ray smiled faintly, Let No. 7 ck-robed Person, who has fled in disgrace, feel ashamed and deal with the other two Tier 5 Powerhouses of the Coldme Royal Family.
As he spoke, Leo Ray nodded to Mason Banks and opened Mind Talk to notify Taylor to return to his invisible state.
Immediately, a panicked and incredulous old voice emerged from Mason Banks body, Terrible news! The Ancient Chest has been taken away by the ck-robed People!
Yes, yes! I saw it too!
On the other side, Kelsey, who had been hiding in the crowd, also followed suit.
What?!
Their words immediately caused a stir within the venue.
A momentter, when the dust had settled, everyone realized that the Ancient Chest on the Blue Stone tform had indeed disappeared.
As for the numerous ck-robed People and the sudden appearance of a Tier 5 Powerhouse, all traces were gone.
Damn it, we still let that group of ck-robed people take away the Ancient Chest!
As soon as he confirmed that the surroundings were safe, the Lord of Viennas City sat on the ground, with sweat mixed with dust constantly dripping from his bloodstained face.
However, although he said so, his heart was still relieved.
After all, if it werent for the Tier 5 Powerhouse invited by the Royal Family.
He would have lost his life by now, let alone worry about a broken chest that he couldnt figure out.
And so, under Leo Rays deliberate guidance.
Everyones attention was once again directed to the mysterious organizations powerhouse.
Put the city on lockdown and search for the ck-robed People with all our might!
Immediately afterward, Lord Asher Porter of Viennas Citys furious voice echoed throughout the venue once more.
Things are going more smoothly than expected. It seems that we can walk out in the open now.
Hearing this, Leo Ray, in the center of the crowd, smiled faintly.
In the midst of the chaos, Leo Ray waved goodbye to Tina of the Blue Rose Knights and Layne of the Broken de Knights, who had been bewildered the whole time not far away.
He even greeted the Grand Elder of the ckwood n and an obese nobleman who was constantly pushed around by the crowd at the entrance.
Afterward, the reunited party of ten, under Kelseys guidance, arrived smoothly at a quiet guest room.
Kelsey, Im leaving everything in Viennas City to you. Report any situation to me in time.
After nodding at the red-clothed girl in the distance, Leo Ray immediately crushed the Returning Crystal just taken out.
The next second, a blue light curtain rose, enveloping Leo Ray and his subordinatespletely.
As time went by and under Kelseys watchful gaze, the blue light curtain around Leo Ray became increasingly dense.
Before returning to the city, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a hint of curiosity on his face, murmuring in his heart, Since the object has been obtained, let me have a good look at whats so extraordinary about this mysterious and unpredictable Ancient Chest
Chapter 339 - 312: Eternal Night Demon Box【5K】_1
Chapter 339: Chapter 312: Eternal Night Demon Box5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
With a sh of dazzling light, Leo Rays vision became clear once again.
He found himself and his powerful subordinates back in their familiar territory.
At this moment, Leo Ray stood at the entrance of the majestic Lords Mansion, raising his head slightly.
As he gazed at the bright twin moons embedded in the deep blue, brilliant night sky, he took a deep breath of the cool night breeze carrying the scent of fresh forest air mixed with a slight hint of construction. He couldnt help but reveal a satisfied smile.
This trip to Viennas City was undoubtedly fruitful.
First of all, in terms of personal connections, Leo not only won over Kelsey, a Tier 3 powerhouse and the daughter of Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference Master.
Moreover, by providing the hot auction items, he got acquainted with her father, Gael, who was also a Tier 4 powerhouse, and further strengthened the rtionship with the Sanders family.
Thisid a solid foundation for supporting Linda to take the position of the Sanders family head in the near future.
At the same time, he met Tina of the Blue Rose Knights, Layne of the Broken de Knights, and Asher, the Tier 4 powerhouse who was the Lord of Viennas City.
Especially the two young and promising but financially struggling leaders of the Knight Orders, if properly recruited, their elite forces could be a significant surprise force ying a crucial role at critical moments.
Of course, it would be extremely difficult to use the cunning old fox, the Lord of Viennas City, for his purposes under the current circumstances. Leo Ray will have to find a suitable opportunity and devise another n.
Also, the uing exploration of the unknown races relics in five days is bound to be an interesting adventure.
I wonder what treasures and encounters await? Ill have Kelsey confirm the exact timeter.
With these thoughts, Leo Ray sniffed the air and gazed at the crescent moon in the night sky, deep in contemtion.
Secondly, regarding the items, he was quite satisfied with the loot from the previous two auctions.
He not only obtained arge number of functional Tier 1 and Tier 2 magic drugs, Tier 3 leather armor and light armor that were currently in short supply, the star-patterned fruits which were crucial ingredients for refining Star Pattern Magic Energy Pills, and a Tier 4 magic weapon intended to be used as a kitchen knife.
Moreover, he also received a storage ring with a 50-cubic meter capacity, which was sessfully upgraded to 100 rings.
It could be used to equip his main forces en masse, which would further enhance their tactical capabilities andbat power.
The most important thing is that, after the upgrade, I acquired a Tier 5 Frost Dragon Wand and an extremely rare Tier 4 Magic Martial Arts skill scroll, the Sky-breaking Thunderbolt sh!
However, to fullyprehend this skill, I must first master flying magic. Ill wait until my Magic Energy Vortex advances to the third tier before learning it.
As he was overjoyed, Leo Ray straightened his clothes beneath the resplendent starry sky and fell into deep thought once again.
Finally, thest gain from this trip to Viennas City was their first direct confrontation with the mysterious organization.
From the beginning, through Serena and Stes surveince, Leo Ray obtained an essential clue.
It was that the method the mysterious organizations powerhouses used to verify each others identities was likely a unique, small-scale, trigger-based magic.
In addition, Taylors misleading words caused the mysterious organizations attention to be drawn back to the Coldme Royal Family, buying more time for Leo Ray and his territory to grow stronger.
Ever since Michael Wood, a strong member of the mysterious organization, tried to kill me and Solomon and Sylvia at the Immortal Gate, this massive organization hidden in the shadows has caught my attention.
Someday, Ill make them realize how terrifying the Otherworldly Lord they look down upon and casually kill can be.
With these thoughts, Leo Ray took another deep breath of the refreshing air and regained hisposure.
Then he smiled at the surrounding subordinates and said, Alright, everyone, youve worked hard today. Go back and rest early.
Lord, this is the Ancient Chest, Ste rk said shyly.
Very good.
Receiving the half-meter-square, dark gray object, Leo Ray noticed that it was much lighter than he had imagined. Yet, it still gave an indescribable sense of heaviness. It was truly a wonder.
Upon close inspection, the surface of the strange chest was covered with intricate and mysterious patterns. Under the silver moonlight, these patterns became clearer and reflected a subtle, eerie glow.
The more I look at it, the more peculiar it seems.
With this thought, Leo Ray put the mysterious chest into his space bracelet momentarily.
After bidding farewell to Linda, Mason Banks, Serena, and Ste who were returning to Cyan Town, Leo Ray inspected his territory and found that the construction of the city gates and walls was still progressing orderly.
Furthermore, with the efforts of his seven Tier 2 Elite Squadrons, the gaps between the round fortresses that made up the city wall had been filled with polished, thick stones.
As a result, the tops of these fortresses were now fully connected.

At the two entrances and exits of the territory, therge frames of the city gates had also begun to take shape.
Once the city walls and gates are fully built, and arge number of magic cannons are ced, the defense capabilities of the territory will obviously be improved to an epic level! A hidden, solid fortress in the woods will rise from the ground soon!
With a satisfied nod, Leo Ray strode towards the southeastern corner of the territory, where the new kitchen was being built.
After a whole days effort by chefs like Rudy Blues and the Farmer Squad, there was already arge stone house outline here.
In this way, after building a few more dining halls, the soldiers wont have to eat in the open anymore. A [Half-elf Arch-shaped Longhouse] would be nice. After all, itsrge area can amodate two middle teams of soldiers dining at the same time.
With his mind made up, Leo Ray hurried back to the mansions hall after inspecting the territory.
He then called Taylor, Scarlett, Joshua Bingaman, Orion Wolfe, and the other main subordinates, as well as the middle team leaders, to discuss the Ancient Chest through mind talk.
A momentter, as the subordinates gazed closely at the Ancient Chest ced quietly on the wooden table in front of them, they couldnt help but widen their eyes and exim in awe at its strange glow.
Leo Ray first opened the attribute column of the Ancient Chest.
[Name: Eternal Night Magic Box]
[Belonging Race: ???]
[Function: ???]
[Note: An ancient item that disappeared along with a mysterious and lost race. Its background and function are unknown, but it can be confirmed that this item poses no danger.]
So theres no clue at all?
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but purse his lips slightly, and then showed a thoughtful look: Well, we at least know its name is [Eternal Night Magic Box]. Could this name be an important clue?
After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray, who still had no clue, looked at his subordinates beside him and asked, What are your opinions on this?
On the other side, the subordinates looked at each other for a moment.
Joshua Bingaman, with waist-length smooth long hair and a fairplexion, stepped forward, bowed slightly and said, My Lord, my major at the Royal Noble Academy was in the study of foreign race relics, but I have never seen any introduction or documentation about this kind of box.
Immediately after, Orion Wolfe scratched his rough short hair and stepped forward with a puzzled look, My Lord, my major is in the study of foreign race magic development. I have never seen such a peculiar pattern and cannot determine whether this pattern is a special magic pattern.
After Orion finished, Scarlett stepped forward with small steps and blinked her big eyes, My Lord, I didnt learn about this item in the Magic Tower either, but there are still cakes in my storage ring
Get back!
With a wry smile, Leo Ray turned to Belinda Wright and Bianca White, who were half-elves and werewolves, and asked, Do you have any idea?
Belinda Wright replied, My Lord, when we were sealed in the barrier area, reading books was one of the favorite things of our younger generation of half-elves. I have read all the historical literature of our Moonwhite Tribe since my childhood, and I can assure that there is no such record.
Hearing her words, Belinda Wright, with a quiver on her thigh, brushed back her long hair to reveal her pointed ears and shook her head.
Bianca White, with furrowed eyebrows and drooping white furry ears, spoke from the side, My Lord, there is no such record in the stories passed down through generations in our Snow Feather Tribe either.
With a slight frown, Leo Ray raised his eyebrow and looked at Taylor and several middle teammanders but still didnt get any valuable clues.
Well, it can be determined that this thing must be very precious, otherwise, the mysterious organization wouldnt have made two moves and even sent a Tier 5 powerhouse to snatch it.
Realizing this, Leo Ray stepped forward, heading for the throne at the top of the room.
He continued to ponder, Besides, Jasper Richardson, the half-elf ancestor, may have some clues. Ill have to wait for her to return to ask her.
Sitting on the throne, Leo Ray then spoke to his subordinates at the lower seats, Everyone, whether it was the powerhouse who went with me today or the one who stayed in the territory, performed exceptionally well.
Its gettingte. Everyone gathers their teams and goes back to rest. Ill call out the names of those who need to stay behind in a while.
Thus, after everyone dispersed, Leo Ray called Gavin Sullivan, the captain of the Farmer Squad, to his side first.
Now, even the weakest ordinary farmer in the Farmer Squad has reached the Tier 1 Nine-Star level. Its time for them to collectively advance to Tier 2.
Thinking this, Leo Ray waved his hand.
He handed over 80 Qi Condensing Pills, 80 sets of Tier 3 [Jungle Hunter Bow] and Tier 3 [Hunters Leather Armor], 30 half Tier 1 and Tier 2 healing potions, arge number of arrows, and a storage ring altogether to Gavin Sullivan.
With this, all my direct subordinates are at least at Tier Second level, and all of them are equipped with Tier 3 or higher equipment!

Trantor: 549690339
With that in mind, he waved to dismiss the grateful Gavin Sullivan and called the other Tier 2 squadronmanders to his side,
They were Roger Smith from the Heavy Armored Guards Squad, Belinda Wright from the Half-elf Archer Squad, Owen Montgomery from the Werewolf Warrior Squad, Luther Blues and Russ Blues from the two Heavy Shield Shooter Squads, and Dean and Fiona Harding from the two Shadow Squads, a total of seven people.
Each of them was given a storage ring, as well as 15 Tier 1 healing potions and 15 Tier 2 healing potions for backup.
Furthermore, he gave a Rose Gathering Energy Pill to Luther, Russ, Dean, and Fiona, who were currently at Tier 2 Nine-Star stage.
As well as Scarlett, Amelia, Belinda Wright, and Bianca White among the main subordinates who had not yet reached Tier 3 Nine-Star level, one pill for each of the eight.
Thank you so much, my Lord. We are willing to go through fire and water for you!
Amidst the excited gratitude of his subordinates, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
So far, in addition to the two Great Swordsman squads and one Mage squad that were not present,
the mainmanders of the ten elite Tier 2 squads under hismand had all reached the Tier 3 level.
With this, the overall strength of the territory will obviously rise to a new level once again!
Delighted, Leo Ray took the ten newly refined Qi Condensing Pills from Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfes delicate hands, sessfully upgrading them to 500 Qi Condensing Pills and 5 Rose Gathering Energy Pills.
At the same time, he also gave them two new storage rings, as well as the corresponding magical potions, concealment rings, and magical scrolls, which were standard items for main subordinates.
Thank you very much, my Lord!
Having received the storage rings and various items from Leo Ray, the expressions of surprise and joy on Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfes pretty faces were evident.
As the nobles of the Coldme family and counts heirs, they both already possessed a storage ring. They were well aware of how precious the rare items were, let alone the others!
Thus, after all the subordinates had left,
Leo Rays gaze fell again on the square object named [Eternal Night Magic Box] on the table, revealing a contemtive expression.
Thats right, during my trip to Viennas City, I also encountered the down-and-out wandering poet Old Nick, who further confirmed the possibility of the impending catastrophe.
This is the third time Ive heard this term since the fortune-telling of Bamboo Sasha from the Magic Tower, and the divination from Penelopes subordinates.
At this moment, Leo Ray poured himself a cup of tea and continued to ponder, Although the man is currently in a state of madness, this clue is very important.
He looked at the white porcin teacup steaming in front of him and nodded slightly, Fortunately, the man has been properly amodated by Kelsey. I should ask Kelsey to have someone take care of him more carefully.
Maybe in the future, we can really get some crucial clues from him, who knows.
With that thought, Leo Ray focused his attention back on the Eternal Night Magic Box in front of him and continued to ponder, I remember hearing from the Hydro Great Mage who disguised himself as an auctioneer that this box might havee from the Era of nkness three thousand years ago.
And when I previously encountered the mysterious organization, both the ancient battlefield ruins and the Elf relics on the edge of Penelopes territory seemed to have some connection to the nk Age three thousand years ago.From this, it can be seen that, if nothing goes wrong, the unopened Immortal Gate should alsoe from that era. It seems that the purpose of the mysterious organization is gradually surfacing.
Realizing this, Leo Ray sipped a steaming cup of fragrant tea and continued to ponder: Speaking of which, what terrifying event happened three thousand years ago, causing the emergence of a strange historical gap among all races on the continent?
Whats more, it even led to the extinction of some races? Is this rted to the uing Great Catastrophe?
If there are no idents, there must be some potential connection between them.
At this point, Leo Ray put down his teacup, his furrowed brows slowly rxed: It doesnt matter now, as the clues at hand are still extremely limited and are unable to make further inferences.
Furthermore, the current goal is still to umte strength and focus on the haughty Princess Ariel, as the mysterious organization and the Coldme Royal Family still stand as formidable opponents.
As the territory bes more powerful, I believe it wont be long before more new clues are found.
Putting down the teacup, Leo Ray got up from the throne and casually walked to the Eternal Night Magic Box.
Stroking its slightly rough yet exceptionally smooth cracked surface, Leo Ray revealed a thoughtful expression.
He muttered to himself, Although the purpose of this object is unclear, the more I look at its patterns, the more they seem simr to those on the Territory Miracle Building. Isnt there a reaction between the two of them?
With that thought, Leo Ray didnt hesitate and waved his hand, collecting the Eternal Night Magic Box into his Space Bracelet.
Then he strode out, pushing open the mansions gate and heading towards the Miracle Building in the north of the territory.
At this time, the night was deep, and most of the subordinates had returned to their camps to rest.
Within his sight, there were only squads of patrolling and guarding subordinates on the city wall or advancing in the territory, producing orderly sounds of footsteps and the collision of armor.
A momentter, he arrived in front of the Guardian Defense Mechanism, gleaming with deep blue cold light.
With a mentalmand, the square Eternal Night Magic Box reappeared in his palm.
As he held the box, he continued forward, walking directly into the interior of the Guardian Defense Mechanism.
The moment he entered the huge building, Leo Ray discovered,
that the deep gray surface of the Eternal Night Magic Box in his hand actually began to emit a faint deep blue cold light.
So theres a reaction, huh?
Seeing this, Leo Rays face instantly showed a mixture of surprise and delight.
Without any hesitation, he quickened his pace, continuing to walk towards the central area filled with rows of charging tforms.
In this way, when Leo Ray arrived at the center of the hall, a sudden prompt sounded in his ear.
Chapter 342 - 313: The Sky Guardian and the Magic Lock Mechanism【5K】_1
Chapter 342: Chapter 313: The Sky Guardian and the Magic Lock Mechanism5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
[Congrattions! The hidden function of your Miracle Building Guardian Defense Mechanism has been activated!]
[Congrattions! Your Miracle Building Guardian Defense Mechanism has unlocked a new Guardian: Sky Guardian!]
[Congrattions! Your Miracle Building Guardian Defense Mechanism has unlocked a new building special effect: Guardian Optimization!]
Sky Guardian?
Upon hearing this series of prompts, Leo Ray didnt have time to react.
At the same time, a booming, deep rumbling suddenly sounded, and the entire t brick floor began to tremble slightly.
Following that, around the neatly arranged charging bases emitting a faint dark blue light at the center of the hall.
Eight slightlyrger, brand new stone bases began to slowly emerge from the ground.
A momentter, when the new charging bases were fully revealed in front of Leo Ray, eight dark, deep blue light columns rose from the new bases.
The next second, apanying the fluctuating energy waves that burst out.
Within the light columns, one by one, towering and mighty figures began to condense rapidly in the air.
Since all of this happened in the blink of an eye, by the time Leo Ray came to his senses.
The light columns in front of him had already be tiny energy particles, disappearing into the air.
And on the new bases, instead were eight giant warrior stone statues, wieldingnces and looking almost identical to the Earth Guardians.
Seeing this, besides being astonished.
Just as Leo Ray temporarily put away the Eternal Night Magic Box and took a step closer to take a closer look.
Apanied by a sudden gust of strong wind.
On the back of each new stone statue, a pair of stone wings unfolded abruptly, like those of an angel.
At first nce, they looked like fully armed battle angel statues.
Good grief, is this the Sky Guardian?
Looking up at the tall and fierce new stone statue in front of him, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a curious expression.
At the same time, feeling the unusual energy fluctuations, Taylor, Scarlett, Joshua Bingaman, and Orion Wolfe, the main force powerhouses, also rushed to Leo Rays side.
Its okay, dont worry.
Waving his hand slightly, signaling to his subordinates not to worry, Leo Ray first opened the attribute column of one of the Sky Guardians.
[Name: Sky Guardian ]
[upation: Sky Warrior]
[Rank: Tier 3 One-Star]
[Energy: 100%]
[Skill One: Lethal Thrust Type L Active (Physical single-target attack, additional piercing effect)]
[Skill Two: Aerial Combat Stance Active (Greatly increase flight speed)]
[Skill Three: Intermediate Magic Barrier Passive (Spell damage reduction of 70%)]
It seems that this is a profession that can fight in the air.
Closing the attribute column, with a thought, the giant stone statue in front of Leo Ray immediately pped its wings, soared into the air, and circled above the hall.
For a moment, the sight of the statues flying was incredibly fantastical, making people couldnt help but marvel.
It really is the Sky Guardian!
Feeling the strong wind blowing from the golem spreading its wings, Scarlett, who had changed into a pink-colored pajama set, couldnt help but exim.
She swept her wind-blown hair behind her head while bowing to Leo Ray and said, My Lord, like the Earth Guardians, these Sky Guardians are advanced magic puppets with extremely high magic defense.
However, summoning them is much more difficult than summoning Earth Guardians.
With that said, Scarlett widened her phoenix eyes and made a roaring dragon gesture.
She continued, And more importantly, whether its aerialbat or diving attacks, their destructive power is even more astonishing, and they can also undertake aerial scouting and early warning tasks, which makes them very versatile! And there are eight of them all at once!
Feeling delighted, Leo Ray continued to ponder, Thats right; the prompt also mentioned that a new building special effect seems to have been added.
Without hesitation, he directly opened the building attribute column.
[Guardian Defense Mechanism Lv: 4]
[Owner: Leo Ray ID: 0013076067]
[Earth Guardian Quantity: 24/24]
[Sky Guardian Quantity: 8/8]
[Building Special Effect 1: Guardian Charging lv4 Can charge Earth (Sky) Guardians, greatly reducing charging time]

[Upgrade Materials Required: Stone x150000, Iron Ore x120000, Obsidian x6000, Dark Magic Crystal x200]
The third special effect is to reduce energy consumption, right? Not bad! In this way, the endurance of these guardians can undoubtedly be further enhanced!

Chapter 343: Chapter 313: Sky Guardian and Magical Lock Mechanism 5K_2
Trantor: 549690339
Brimming with excitement, Leo Rays heart stirred, and the 24 Earth Guardians, which had always been stored in the Space Bracelet, all appeared at once.
The next second, a mysterious dark blue light shed from bottom to top on the bodies of all the Earth Guardians. Clearly, they had received the benefits of the third new special effects energy optimization.
Immediately after that, without any hesitation, Leo Ray redeployed the 24 Earth Guardians and the 8 new Sky Guardians.
The Earth Guardians were still grouped in threes.
There were groups at each of the two entrances to the territory, one at the Lords Mansion, one in the area where the Miracle Building was, one group on standby for charging, and the remaining three groups, a total of nine, were kept in the Space Bracelet as backups.
As for the Sky Guardians, they were grouped in pairs.
Besides the territorys northern area with steep rugged mountains, there was one pair positioned every few kilometers in the other three directions, with another pair on standby for charging.
Of course, Leo Ray naturally didnt have these Sky Guardians flying around in the sky all the time. Instead, they primarily hid in towering trees and kept a birds-eye view of everything.
Furthermore, through observations during this period, Leo Ray discovered
Perhaps it was because they had no life signs, as long as these Guardians remained hidden,
they were just like real statues, not emitting any energy fluctuations, making them the perfect candidates for ambushes, early warnings, and scouting.
After a short while, when everything was properly arranged,
Leo Ray casually waved his hand, putting the nine Earth Guardians back into the Space Bracelet, his face showing a pleased expression.
Muttering to himself, he said, As expected of an extremely rare Miracle Building, this Guardian Defense Mechanism alone provides me with the strength of 32 Tier 3 Powerhouses. It couldnt be more perfect!
Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray seemed to remember something. He took out the Eternal Night Magic Box again and quickly walked over to the Light Healing House on the other side.
Since this ancient chest could cause a reaction in the Guardian Defense Mechanism,
maybe it could also cause some changes in the Miracle Building of the Light Healing House!
However, when Leo Ray walked around the resplendent Light Healing House holding the chest,
he didnt hear any hint, and the faint blue light on the box disappeared, just like at the beginning.
My Lord, what are you doing?
Seeing this, Orion Wolfe, who had always been following Leo Ray, tilted his head with messy hair, his pretty face full of puzzlement.
Its like this
Immediately, Leo Ray described the details of how the Eternal Night Magic Box had suddenly reacted within the Guardian Defense Mechanism to his subordinates.
So it turns out that those new Sky Guardians were created because of this box. Thats truly amazing!
Hearing this, Scarlett showed an enlightened expression, but then looked puzzled again, But why did this happen?
I remember in the Magic Tower, during an elective course on Miracle Buildings, a weird old guy once talked about this.
But that day, because I got upte and didnt eat breakfast, my attention was all on my food during the morning, so I didnt really listen
This ancient chest only reacted to the Guardian Defense Mechanism but had no effect on the Light Healing House, even though they are both Miracle Buildings?
On the other side, Orion Wolfe contemted for a moment with her eyebrows furrowed.
Then, her crystal clear eyes sparkled, and she revealed an enlightened expression, bowing to Leo Ray, My Lord, I know whats going on!
Oh?
Hearing this, Leo Ray turned his head slightly, signaling Orion Wolfe to continue talking.
My Lord, this is because of the Miracle Buildings Magic Lock Mechanism.
On the other side, Orion Wolfe moved gracefully,ing to stand in front of Leo Ray.
The Magic Lock Mechanism of Miracle Buildings?
cing the ancient chest aside onto a wooden chair, Leo Rays expression grew more curious.
Orion Wolfe bowed her head, Yes, my Lord. As youve seen, Miracle Buildings are so rare and powerful that they deserve to be called miracles.
Essentially, they are the crystallization of a specific races magical wisdom or even the pinnacle of the magical achievements of an entire race.
Ive recently learned about this.
Leo Ray nodded slightly, smelling the fragrance of shampoo from Orion Wolfes hair, and pondered, But what exactly is this Magic Lock Mechanism?
The so-called Magic Lock Mechanism is the constraint measure of the original race that built the Miracle Building to keep other races from using it, thus safeguarding the interests of the original race.
Orion Wolfe continued, In this way, even if other races obtain the blueprint and construct a Miracle Building,
they can only unleash the vast majority of its functions, unable to maximize the performance of the Miracle Building.
Only by finding the corresponding Magic Lock Key can the full functionality of the Miracle Building be unlocked, achieving the same effects as when the original race used it.

Chapter 344: Chapter 313: Sky Guardian and Magical Lock Mechanism5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
Upon saying this, Orion Wolfe hesitated for a moment, then continued to add, However, please rest assured, my lord, the miracle building and storage ring both possess a unique owner recognition function, just like each other.
Therefore, even if you, my lord,mand these guardians to attack the original race that created the guardian defense mechanism, theres nothing they can do.
I see.
Hearing this, Leo Ray immediately showed a clear expression and asked, So, is this [Eternal Night Magic Box] the magic lock key to remove the limitations of the guardian defense mechanism?
Replying to my lord, thats correct.
Orion Wolfe nodded his slightly ruffled head and responded, As far as I know, there are many types of magic lock keys for miracle buildings, which may be the most precious treasures of the original race or a special incantation chanted only using thenguage of the original race, and so on.
Moreover, I believe that the role of this [Eternal Night Magic Box] is more than just being a magic lock key; it should belong to the category of treasures of the original race, and the magic lock key function is just an additional feature.
I agree.
Looking at the dark grey box reflecting a strange light before him, Leo Ray reviewed the attribute column of the [Eternal Night Magic Box] once again.
He found that the associated race and function items were still showing the unactivated ??? state.
That makes everything exinable.
Seeing this, Leo Ray casually put the [Eternal Night Magic Box] into his space bracelet and continued, Through the reactions just now, we can confirm that this box and the guardian defense mechanism are from the same unknown race, and it is very likely a sacred object of that race.
Although he still hasnt figured out what other functions this [Eternal Night Magic Box], which serves as the sacred object of that race, possesses besides being a magic lock key.
However, knowing that it is rted to the guardian defense mechanism is already a significant gain for us.
Indeed.
On the other side, Scarlett also nodded her little head and added, Also, we already knew that this Light Healing House came from the Light Elf Race.
So, if there is no response, it would be normal, and we can basically rule out the possibility that this box is from the Light Elf Race!
Thats right.
Leo Ray nodded slightly in response.
Perhaps the key to unlocking the magic lock of this Light Healing House is hidden deep within the elf underground city near Penelopes territory, which he has not yet broken through the elf magic ban.
Now that the Light Healing House is already very powerful, with uninterrupted healing and purification functions, I wonder what new building effects will emerge after unlocking?
Speaking of which, what exactly is sealed in the elf magic ban? I believe these mysteries will be unveiled in the near future, Leo Ray continued thinking after gathering himself up.
All in all, using the Eternal Night Magic Box to unlock the magic lock of the guardian defense mechanism has further strengthened mybat power, which is a surprise bonus!
With that thought, Leo Ray turned around and spoke to his subordinates behind him, Alright, everyone can go back.
After saying that, Leo Ray, Taylor, and Scarlett, who had already been staying in the mansion, returned together.
Next, upon arriving on the third floor of the mansion, Leo Ray first collected todays output of 1200 units of copper ingots.
He then put the 3 million units of thatch obtained from arge number of Tier 1 weapons into the storage wooden box.
At this point, after another round of work by the other lords, Leo Rays own depleted Level 1mon resources had once again be a mountainous pile.
After finishing all this, Leo Ray stretchedzily and went straight back to his bedroom at the end of the corridor. When he reached the door, he left two Earth Guardians as guards.
After all, previously, just standing guard overnight, an Earth Guardians energy consumption would not exceed 5%, let alone now that optimization has further reduced energy consumption.
A momentter, after washing up, Leo Ray, who wasying t on the spacious and soft bed, began to establish mind contact with Kelsey, who was in Viennas City.
He learned that after their ten-person departure, other nobles and wealthy merchants also left Sanders Trading Conference one after another.
Moreover, due to the sudden appearance of the mysterious organizations powerhouses, most nobles and wealthy merchants had strong doubts about the security of Viennas City and left the city overnight.
As a result, the actions of his own people did not cause any waves.
As for Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City and the other mercenary powerhouses, although they suffered heavy losses, with many of them having suffered serious injuries
The well-prepared priest group arrived just in time and received proper treatment.
Kelseys father, Gael, and Kelsey herself, were naturally unharmed under their own deliberate arrangements.
In summary, my lord, there are no problems other than some chaos and aftermath matters to deal with here. Please rest assured, Kelseys crisp voice came from the other end of the mind talk.
Very well, report to me if anything happens and have an early rest.
After saying this and giving a few more instructions, Leo Ray closed the mind talk.
Speaking of which, todays experience was quite thrilling. I bet No. 7 ck-robed Person is still in a daze, right?
With that thought, Leo Ray put away the Light Crystal Stone on the bedside cab, dimming the room, and continued to ponder, By the way, I still have the Tier 4 magic weapon I prepared for Rudy Blues as a kitchen knife.
Also, give him a storage ringter, so he can store vegetables, fruits, and other ingredients. Itll be very convenient, and it can keep them fresh for a long time
As he thought, Leo Ray felt his eyelids grow increasingly heavy as though they were filled with lead, and he soon fell into a deep sleep with steady breathing.
The next morning, when it was still slightly hazy outside the window, Leo Ray, already in high spirits, sat up from the bed, stretchedzily, and couldnt wait to throw a Rose Gathering Energy Pill into his mouth.
Now, as a cultivator of both magic and martial arts, it is time for him to advance to be a Tier 3 magic powerhouse!

Trantor: 549690339
As the Rose Gathering Energy Pill entered his body, an extremely pure and unruly energy immediately poured down Leo Rays throat like andslide, violently surging throughout his body.
Having already mastered this process, Leo Ray effortlessly adjusted to it, and with a thought, he first guided the energy into the physical energy vortex within his abdomen.
After a while, Leo Ray, who had sessfully refined the pills power, slowly opened his tightly closed eyes. The aura emanating from his body had clearly risen a level.
By now, his physical level had reached Tier 3 Six-Star.
Alright, its time to break through to bing a Tier 3 Magic powerhouse.
Taking a deep breath, Leo Ray didnt hesitate. With a slight thought, he swallowed another Rose Gathering Energy Pill, its unique fragrance enveloping him.
This time, when the powerful energy contained within the Magic Medicine exploded out,
Leo Ray, with his eyes closed, concentrated on refining it without pause.
Drawing from his previous experience, he skillfully separated a wisp of pure magical power from the magic energy vortex in his abdomen.
He then quickly dispersed it throughout his meridians, gradually guiding the restless power of the pill into the clearly bottlenecked magic energy vortex.
After advancing to the Tier 3 Physical powerhouse level, Leo Rays meridians had already be much stronger.
Thus, despite the pills violent energy, the refining and guiding process went extremely smoothly.
As new energy continued pouring in,
it didnt take long for Leo Ray to feel a noticeable sense of fullness in his magical energy vortex, unable to receive any more energy.
Immediately after, an intense collision urred between the energy vortex and the unrefined energy as expected.
Has it finally reached this critical moment?
Feeling the tearing and swelling sensations brought about by the fierce collision of the two energies,
Leo Ray understood clearly.
Now, he was only one step away from sessfully upgrading his magic energy vortex to the Tier 3 level.
Next, naturally, was using all his mental power topress the nearly overflowing magic energy vortex to its utmost limit, causing it to change fundamentally!
Before this, I heard Taylor and Scarlett mention,
that during this process, failure topress the energy would lead to energy runaway within the body, resulting in injury, a decline in strength, or even life-threatening danger.
It seems almost no different from tribtion.
With this thought, Leo Ray continued to guide the energy, effortlesslypressing it ording to the method of Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation provided by Jasper Richardson.
This time, although the magic energy vortex in Leo Rays body, together with the pills power surrounding it, still behaved like untamed dragons and tigers, roaring and entangling with each other,
due to Rays enhanced physical strength, coupled with the flexible deployment of the nearby Physical Energy Vortex to assist,
after some back-and-forth suppression and counterattacks,
it wasnt long before Leo Ray seized the opportunity, forciblypressing the mental power together with the adjacent physical energy, crushing and ultimatelypacting it into the size of a fist.
The next second, a sensation of inexhaustible energy filled Leo Rays body, invigorating him instantly.
At this moment, while still sitting cross-legged and concentrating, Leo Ray expelled a turbid breath, guiding his consciousness inward with his mental power.
He discovered that the previously somewhat illusory magic vortex had be solid and dense, almost the same size as the physical vortex.
Moreover, the ovepping portions of the two vortexes had be even closer, like the intery of Yin and Yang.
Its been so smooth this time. As long as one energy vortex breaks through its shackles and reaches a new level,
the other energy vortex will have an easier time leveling up, which is another advantage of Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation, right?
With this thought, Leo Ray slowly opened his eyes, and a trace of joy emerged on his face. He then opened his status bar.

Not bad, not bad. Since Ive sessfully advanced to a Tier 3 Magic powerhouse, I can learn the secrets of magic flight from Scarlett and the others!
With his attribute column closed, Leo Rays face was full of delight.
Over time, by gaining a deeper understanding of this world, Leo Ray learned clearly,
the reason why magic powerhouses above Tier 3 can soar through the sky,
is because at this stage, Tier 3 magicians have mastered the ability to release magic power externally.

Trantor: 549690339
By projecting their magic externally, they can condense gorgeous magic wings on their back and eventually achieve the effect of soaring into the sky.
Of course, Magic system powerhouses above Tier 3 can only perform low-altitude flight.
Nevertheless, merely the ability to escape the Earths shackles and hover in mid-air is enough to make all the Magic system powerhouses who have not yet reached this level envious.
In this way, as a fragile mage, there is no doubt that they would have more tactical choices and survival abilities!
This is also the reason why countless Magic system powerhouses spare no effort to pursue this level.
These Magic powerhouses understand it clearly.
Only through day and night continuous cultivation, can they finally reach the Tier 3 level and above to master this unique skill.
However, without the assistance of Magic Medicine, the chances of sess for a powerhouse truly reaching this threshold are quite slim.
Moreover, this time span might even take a lifetime.
Of course, for Leo Ray, who treats Magic Medicine as if it were candy, there is naturally no problem with his cultivation. Once refined, its all good.
In summary, it is clear.
In this world, this magical ability is pursued by everyone, let alone for Leo Ray who traveled through time. Naturally, he has been looking forward to it for a long time.
Excited, Leo Ray jumped out of bed, stretched hiszy waist, and then began to wash.
A momentter, wearing a new set of clothes, Leo Ray put on his Tier 4 Leather Armor and went out of the room in high spirits.
With a wave of his hand, Leo Ray picks up the two Earth Guardians at the gate, passed through the corridor, and went straight to the Lords Office on the other side.
He arrived in front of the continuously shing light blue Magic Array in one corner of the room.
Leo Ray opened the manufacturing interface, first set the copper ingot production sequence for today.
Then he sat down in thefortable chair in front of the office desk, opened the territory interface, and prepared to collect todays Recruitment Order.
At this stage, I can receive 3 Tier 2 Recruitment orders, or 18 Tier 1 Recruitment orders.
Since the current poption limit of the territory is not enough to summon a fully-formed middle team, then I will choose the Tie 1 Recruitment Order and summon a Tier 3 Powerhouses team.
With the decision made, Leo Ray began to collect todays Recruitment Orders and upgraded them.
Eventually, he sessfully received 10 Tier 3 Recruitment Orders and over 800 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders.
At present, I have 3620 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders, 1 of Tier 2, and 16 Tier 3, right?
Seeing this, Leo Ray stood up from his seat, walked towards the door with anticipation and said, I wonder what kind of Tier 3 Powerhouses team will be recruited this time?
Just after walking out of the door, the notification sound of Leo Rays private messages suddenly rang. After checking, he found out it was from Penelope Welbourn.
I see, the blessing type she got today is the same as yesterdays, a food type blessing? It seems shes about to break through the Tier First level soon.
Leaving a simple reply, Leo Ray instructed Penelope to pay close attention to the relics, closed the message, and went straight to the first floor.
However, just as he stepped out of the staircase, he couldnt help but be amazed at the scene in front of him.
In the spacious reception hall, everywhere was cleaned spotlessly; the stone floor was obviously waxed and polished, looking dazzling.
Even the metal throne where Leo Ray usually sits had been polished to a shine, with a luxurious cushion added and a luxurious red carpet stretching all the way to the door.
In a nutshell, Leo Ray suddenly felt like he was walking into a luxurious hotel lobby.
Good morning, Lord.
On the other side, hearing Leo Rays footsteps, the old steward Warren Dexter, dressed in a ck tailcoat, immediately came up with four exquisitely make-up pretty maids, saluting respectfully, My Lord, yesterday when I went to Cyan Town, I took some time to carefully select a roll of red carpet from the City Lord Mansion warehouse to showcase your taste andid it in the hall. I hope my lord wont be angry.
Its fine, Ive already said before that you can handle the cement of items and hygiene in the Lords Mansion on your own.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray took the steaming cup of ck tea from one of the pretty maids and said.
As you wish, my lord!
Old steward Warren Dexter knelt down on one knee and bowed again to Leo Ray.
Then he said, In addition, my lord, utilizing the short morning time, my subordinates havepleted aprehensive clean-up of the mansions first floor. Soon we will start cleaning the other floors.
Very well!
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray took a sip of the hot tea and thought to himself, No wonder they are a professional and efficient steward team of Tier 3 Powerhouses. Its no wonder that they can only be servants to senior nobles and the royal family.
Furthermore, my lord, I just confirmed with Head Chef Rudy Blues. Todays breakfast is roasted tomatoes, butter scrambled eggs, pork sausages, with potato cake, honey toast, and porridge. Where would you like to dine, my lord?

Immediately afterward, Warren Dexter took a step forward and bowed again to introduce himself.
Lets eat outside with everyone. Its livelier. He smiled faintly and gestured for the five people to continue working. Leo Ray put down his teacup and went straight outside.
At this time, following Leo Rays instructions, the three magic powerhouses in the territory, Scarlett, Joshua Bingaman, and Orion Wolfe, had been waiting there.
Congrattions to Lord for advancing to Tier 3 Magic Powerhouse, and achieving Tier 3 Powerhouse level in both physical and magical systems!
On the other side, under the splendid morning light, the three respectfully saluted and said in unison to Leo Ray.
Alright, lets not dy. Lets learn the magic flight technique that only Tier 3 Mage powerhouses can master. Leo Ray nodded slightly, and an eager expression appeared on his face.
Yes! Lord! The three clenched their fists again and began to exin and demonstrate.
In this way, with some effort, it didnt take Leo Ray long to learn how to release the magic power within his body and then condense magical wings.
This was quite simr to using the energy in the abdomen to form an energy shield outside the body to reduce damage.
However, after a series of attempts,
Leo Ray could only condense magic wings to the limit, hovering at most 1 meter above the ground, unable to soar any higher.
Huff
Afternding smoothly once again, Leo Ray, drenched in sweat, took a deep breath.
It seems that even though I have advanced to the level of Tier 3 Magic Powerhouse, I still need to practice diligently to master this skill. Leo Ray shook his head helplessly and thought to himself.
Lord, this magic flying technique has very strict requirements for the magic control of the caster. Therefore, this situation is normal, considering that the Lord has just arrived not long ago.
Seeing Joshua Bingaman with flowing long hair taking a step forward and bowing to Leo Ray.
Yes, its already quite amazing for the Lord to be able to condense magic wings so quickly!
Scarlett by the side nodded vigorously and chimed in, Speaking of which, the magic wings that the Lord has condensed are really very unique!
Thats right, Lord, your control of magical energy is truly extraordinary. I believe it wont be long before you can master it skillfully. On the other side, Orion Wolfe, whose hair was finally tidied up somewhat, also firmly stated.
I hope you are not justforting me.
Leo Ray turned his head slightly, nced at the somewhat stiff translucent magic wings behind him, and decided not to think about it anymore, immediately stopping the release of magic power.
Then, through mind-talk, he gathered all his subordinates in the territory in front of the two Miracle Buildings in the north of the territory.
Next, it was time to summon the new Tier 3 Powerhouse squad!
A momentter, standing in front of the two shining Miracle Buildings, Leo Ray first nced at the neatly lined up eight elite middle squad soldiers behind him.
Then, he nodded at the main powerhouses around him.
Following that, without any hesitation, he directly used ten silver-metallic, shimmering Tier 3 Recruitment Orders.
In an instant, apanied by a series of dazzling light gates shing,
One by one, tall and burly figures strode out from the middle.
A momentter, when the dazzling light gradually faded away with the wind,
Under the morning light, ten figures d in ck te armor, wearing fully enclosed helmets, and holding more than three-meter-long sharpnces appeared in Leo Rays view.
Good fellow, is this a Tier 3 Knight Squad? Looking at the awe-inspiring figures in the distance and the spurs on their battle boots, Leo Ray couldnt help nodding slightly.
There is no doubt that such an outfit is clearly recognizable.
On the other side, the leading Knight seemed to be stunned for a moment.
Immediately after, he led the other Knights to Leo Rays side at a brisk pace.
Without any hesitation, he knelt down on one knee and said, We are the des of the Azure Sky, we are the Spears of Death, and we subordinate ourselves to the Lord!
At the same time, a series of neat armor collision sounds echoed as the other nine Knights also bowed their heads in unison, swearing loyalty to Leo Ray.
des of the Azure Sky? Hearing this, Leo Ray helped the speaker up and couldnt help but show an increasingly curious expression before opening the attribute column of the other party.
He found that the Knight captain named Sean had the upation of Pterosaur Knight.
Another professional upation for aerialbat? Seeing this, Leo Rays face showed a hint of joy.
Not long ago, during a chat with Linda, an Assault Knight, Leo Ray learned that in this world, apart from ordinary Knights and Dragon Knights, there were many rare types of Knight soldiers in between.
For example, the Earth Dragon Knights Corps, which was created by the Hero King Caesar of Coldme Kingdom, and the Griffin Knight Corps which was proudly disyed by the neighboring Saint Night Kingdom.
And Pterosaur Knights also belonged to this category.
The so-called Pterosaur Knights, although they have the word dragon in their name, are quite different from real Dragon Knights.
Their mounts were Tier 2 medium-sized Demon Beasts called Azure Pterosaurs, which had faster speeds and more fierce impact powerpared to the flying troops of Griffin Knights.
In any case, thebat power of Pterosaur Knights is quite remarkable, and most importantly, this again adds to the ten Tier 3 Aerialbatants!
In addition to the eight Sky Guardians that appearedst night, it undoubtedly significantly makes up for the shortage of aerialbat in Lords territory!
Upon thinking about this, while delighted, Leo Ray suddenly realized a critical issue and immediately asked, By the way, Sean, where are your Dragon mounts?

Chapter 348: Chapter 315: Wyvern Knight and Maid Star Return5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
My Lord, I was just thinking about this issue
Winged Dragon Knight Captain Sean took off his helmet, revealing a resolute face full of whiskers.
He respectfully replied with some confusion, Before we were summoned, our mounts were by our side, but once we arrived here, we found that they were not summoned along with us.
I see.
Hearing this, Leo engaged in deep thought, stroking his chin.
Although it was his first time recruiting knight-like troops, it seemed that only the summoned subordinates themselves could ept the summoning, not including the mounts beside them.
Nevermind, at least Sean and the others brought their equipment, unlike a certain girl who left her ancestral magic wand at home when she was summoned.
As Leo thought about this, he could not help shaking his head and continuing to ponder.
However, without their mounts, thebat ability and tactical capabilities of the Pterosaur Knights will undoubtedly decrease significantly. It seems that I need to find new mounts for Sean and the others as soon as possible.
Just as Leo thought about this, a familiar prompt began to ring in his ears.
[Congrattions, your Tier 3, 5-star Pterosaur Knight subordinate Sean has developed extreme admiration for you. His loyalty has increased by 23 points, currently at 73 points.]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 three-star Pterosaur Knight Luke has developed extreme admiration for you. His loyalty has increased by 22 points, currently at 72 points.]
[Congrattions, your subordinate]
Upon hearing this, Leo nodded his head in satisfaction.
On the other side, the ten Tier 3 Pterosaur Knights, including Sean, who were gradually recovering from the summoning, began to have fiery gazes.
Without a doubt, the two brilliantly colorful, miracle buildings and the overwhelming aura emanating from the Tier 5 Powerhouse Taylor all conveyed the same message to them: their Lord, who appeared even stronger than they were, was no ordinary person!
It seems we havee to an extraordinary territory.
At this moment, the amazed Sean and the others couldnt help but exim in their hearts.
Only Seans te armor is Tier 3, and the rest of the weapons and armor are Tier 2, right? Next, as usual, we will raise the loyalty of these new subordinates to max.
With the experience of summoning Warren and Rudy yesterday, Leo made a mental move.
Ten dazzling Tier 3 Lances and ten sets of Tier 4 te Armor suddenly appeared before everyone.
For a moment, the green grass reflected brilliant hues, and the new equipment shimmered under the brilliant sunlight, casting dazzling light that made it hard for one to look away.
As the ten new subordinates were overwhelmed by this sudden sight,
Leo smiled faintly, gesturing that he had already bestowed these equipment upon them.
Currently, I dont have enough Tier 4 Lances on hand, so just use the Tier 3 Lances obtained from the battlefield for now. As for the Tier 4 te Armor, it is just enough[mdah]all upgraded from the Tier 2 equipment of the Great Swordsman Squad.
As Leo was pondering this,
Sean and the other ten Pterosaur Knights without dragons were undoubtedly excited. Their loyalties unsurprisingly reached the maximum of 100 points.
Sean, from now on, you and everyone here will berades fighting side by side. Ill find new mounts for you soon.
Hearing the prompt, Leo nodded in satisfaction.
We are extremely grateful, My Lord!
Hearing this, the ten excited Tier 3 Pterosaur Knights once again bowed deeply to Leo.
As Leo helped them up, he opened their attribute column.
[Name: Sean]
[upation: Pterosaur Knight]
[Tier: Tier 3, 5-star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Dive Thrust Active (Physical single-target attack, with pierce effect)]
[Skill Two: Falcon Eye Active (Enhance vision, resist Blind effect)]
[Skill Three: Pterosaur Companion Passive (Can tame Azure Pterosaurs as mounts, increasingbat ability when riding Pterosaurs)]
[Skill Four: Lance Mastery Passive (Increases damage when using a Lance)]
Not bad, not bad. As the captain, Sean is a Tier 3, 5-star. The other Pterosaur Knights are all Tier 3 three-star, right?
Closing the attribute column, Leo made a mental move, handing Sean a Storage Ring and 30 Tier 1 and Tier 2 Magic Drugs.
Next, Sean, the Pterosaur Knight Captain, expressed his gratitude non-stop while Leo announced it was time to eat. Then, he joined his subordinates in enjoying the delicious cuisine prepared by top-tier chefs like Rudy, a Tier 3 Powerhouse, on the green grasnd in the southeast corner of the territory.
Due to the overwhelming demand for the delicious food, Rudy and the other chefs had to add more dishes several times. Everyone enjoyed their meal, praising the taste.
Speaking of which, dining under the warm sunlight on a grassy field filled with the scent of green leaves and earthy fragrance was indeed a very pleasant experience, making one feel at one with nature.

Trantor: 549690339
For Leo Ray, who had always lived in high-rise buildings in a big city before crossing over, this was a rare and enjoyable pleasure for both his body and soul.
In this process, Leo Ray also sessively called Old Steward Warren Dexter and Head Chef Rudy Blues to his side, giving each of them a Storage Ring and a suitable amount of Magic Medicine, instructing them to use it themselves.
Of course, this also included the Tier 4 Magic Weapon used as a kitchen knife, which was casually handed over to Rudy, who was full of surprise.
Under the warm sun, just after Leo Ray had taken thest bite of honey-drizzled buttered toast, the sound of Mind Talk suddenly rang out.
As soon as it connected, Lindas slightly maic androgynous voice sounded, Lord, after my investigation, I found a Tier 3 Close Maid and a Tier 3 Deputy Squad Leader of the Royal Guard by Princess Ariels side.
Both are from Cyan Town and Mn Town, which are also within our sphere of influence.
In this way, it is as the Lord had previously arranged.
We can first try to win over these two in order to further understand Princess Ariels information from the side.
Very well done.
After listening to Lindas report, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Before this, he had drawn a conclusion after several tests and analyses following the hall meeting with Princess Ariel and her party.
That is, Princess Coldme Ariels true purpose for personally leading the mission to Cyan Town was to avoid the increasingly fierce struggle for the throne in Coldmes Royal Capital.
Moreover, the covert conflicts between the Coldme Princes might have already threatened Ariels personal safety.
It can be imagined that even though Ariel, as the Coldme Fifth Princess, had the weakest power, she still had the right to inherit the throne.
Just because of this, it was enough for the other princes to have a reason to target her.
Besides, we must be vignt that Ariels arrival will inevitably attract the attention of other princes. It cannot be ruled out that these guys will send elite spies and assassins to infiltrate Cyan Town, gather intelligence and assassinate the princess, Leo Ray pondered, nodding slightly.
At that time, Cyan Town would naturally be the target of the powerful forces under the princes.
However, as the saying goes, opportunities and challenges coexist. While Cyan Town and the territory within the forest are threatened, I will naturally have Princess Ariel as a trump card.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray smiled faintly while standing up from the half-built stone kitchens greenwn.
Continuing in his heart, As long as I can bring this proud Coldme Princess under control and help her seize the throne, the entire Coldme Kingdom will undoubtedly bepletely under my control.
Of course, from the current situation, it is undoubtedly a very difficult task to subdue this wayward princess, after all, she is a true member of the Coldme Royal Family, standing at the peak of power in the entire Coldme Kingdom.
At this time, Leo Ray took a deep breath of fresh morning air and fell into deep thought.
In order to achieve the goal, it is essential to determine whether the other party has any other harmful thoughts or attempts.
This is extremely important.
Therefore, I decided to use a two-pronged approach. First, I sent Serena and Ste to monitor the other party, and second, I ordered Linda to investigate the other followers around the princess.
In this way, I will be able to specifically target and dig one or more corners of the princess, and then directly understand the true situation of Ariel and her party through these people.
After all, this time, Princess Ariel brought two Tier 4 Kingdom Generals, five Tier 3 Close Maids, a directly affiliated Tier 2 Battle Maid Group, and an elite Tier 2 Royal Guard.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray pped the remaining grass leaves on his body, and then spoke to the cool female knight at the other end of the Mind Talk, Linda, wait for me in Cyan Town, Ill bring people over in a moment.
After closing the Mind Talk, Leo Ray ordered the leaders andmanders of the various teams to gather at the Mansion for a meeting, and couldnt help but reveal a contemtive expression once again.
ording to the reports from Linda, Serena, and Ste, Ariels trip seemed to have another important purpose.
First, she had seriously inquired Linda about the detailed geographical environment around Cyan Town and the distribution ofrge and small cities and towns.
Second, during her conversations with the two Kingdom Generals, she had mentioned the phrase that matter many times.
Combining these two points, its not hard to judge that Ariel must be hiding something.
I must investigate this matter as soon as possible.
With this thought, Leo Ray, who had already entered the Mansion, walked straight to the seat of honor on the throne, ready to arrange todays work.
A short whileter, as the main force andmanders stood in their respective positions, Leo Ray, sitting on the throne, lifted his teacup, took a sip of the fragrant tea just brewed by the Tier 3 Female Servants, and began to assign todays tasks.
Everyone, todays work in the territory is exactly the same as yesterday, with the main goal of quickly connecting the city walls made up of 50 fortresses, as well as building the city gates and the territorys kitchen.

Chapter 350: Chapter 315: Wyvern Knight and Maid Star Return5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
cing the teacup down, Leo Ray surveyed everyone below while continuing, All tasks for the middle teams remain unchanged, each will just perform their duty.
Yes, my Lord!
Hearing this, the eightmanders and Head Chef Rudy from the lower seats stepped forward uniformly and respectfully sped their fists.
Very well.
Nodding his head in satisfaction, looking down at the nine neatly standing figures, Leo Ray continued, Of course, the daily garrison work within the territory must remain a priority.
Each middle team must ensure that there is a fully armed squad at their respective posts at all times, and once an unexpected situation arises, they must promptly switch tobat mode.
Rest assured, my Lord. We have already coordinated drills for various emergency situations yesterday.
A crisp sound rang out as the half-elfmander Belinda Wright, who had the longest seniority within the territory, responded with a slight bow.
Very well, when I am not around and enemies attack, the four ranged middle teams within the territory will be under Belindas coordination, while the other four melee middle teams will be handed over to Roger.
After a slight hesitation, Leo Ray immediatelymanded.
During the previous ughter of the Half-Orc Corps at the narrow pass, he had noticed.
As a half-elf archermander, Belindasmanding ability was quite remarkable.
Additionally, since the half-elves inherit the elf tribes affinity for nature, theyre even morefortable fighting in forests, making them naturally perfect for the role.
As themander of the heavy armor guards squad, Roger, due to his age, calm demeanor, and richbat experience, was the most suitable candidate among all meleemanders.
Thus, Leo Ray made such arrangements.
Inpliance, my Lord!
On the other side, the long-haired Belinda and gray-haired Roger stepped forward simultaneously, bowing respectfully.
With a slight nod, Leo Rays gaze fell on the old steward, and then he said, As for Warren and the four female servants, they will continue assisting the barracks with sewage treatment magic array construction and cleaning work within the Lords Mansion.
Yes, my Lord, rest assured.
Hearing this, the old steward performed a standard gentlemans bow, respectfully responding.
Sean, for now, you all will be responsible for helping Head Chef Rudy build the kitchen. I will investigate the distribution of Azure Pterosaurs around Cyan Town today, and as soon as possible, resolve the mount issue.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray raised his steaming teacup, speaking to the Pterosaur Knight Captain.
As youmand, my Lord!
Sean, d in shining te armor, immediately bowed in response.
Lastly, Joshua and Orion will continue refining Tier 2 Qi Condensation Pills. Additionally, the materials needed for Tier 3 magic medicines were almost collected recently.
Particrly the Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill, which is our current top priority. I hope both of you can quickly improve your refining abilities,ying the foundation for even more advanced magic medicines.
Leaning slightly, Leo Ray looked down at the respectful noble alchemists and instructed further.
By yourmand, my Lord!
On the other side, Joshua and Orion simultaneously bowed in response.
As for the other powerhouses, follow me to Cyan Townter.
Finishing the fragrant tea in his cup, Leo Ray pped his hands, signaling everyone to disperse.
After this, Leo Ray arrived at the small door on the western side of the territory.Surrounding him were Taylor, Scarlett, Abigail, Amelia, and Bianca White.
It goes without saying that Taylor was at Tier 5 level, while Scarlett, Abigail, and Amelia had all reached the peak of Tier 3.
As for Bianca White, who served as the mount, she had achieved a Seven-Star Tier 3 level.
Alright, lets get going.
Nodding at the people beside him, Leo Ray immediately straddled the fluffy, soft white giant wolf in front of him.
In an instant, amidst the astonished gazes of the gate guards, they turned into a blur and disappeared on the grass in front of the city gate.
Apanied by a gust of wind, Leo Ray and the others, dressed in Illusion Cloaks, headed straight to the secret chamber of Sanders Trading Conference upon arriving in Cyan Town, where the crowd had just started to gather.
My Lord, heres the situation.
As soon as Leo Ray had taken a seat, Linda, who had been waiting there, immediately began, After my investigation, this Tier 3 female servant, who came from Cyan Town, is simply a child from amon civilian family and has been away from home for more than ten years.
In the absence of any background, it is not easy to advance to the Tier 3 powerhouse rank by oneself, and after numerous selections, she became a close servant to the noble princess.
I see.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and then asked, How much do we know about her specific information now?
My Lord, this female servant is named Celeste Reiss, and her upation is a Sword Dancer, a physical profession that lies between an assassin and a swordsman.
On the other side, Linda continued while rearranging her hair behind her head, Currently, Celeste is attending to Ariel Watson. During this time, she returned home once but didnt see her long-lost family members.
Oh? Why is that?
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a puzzled expression, asking, Isnt her house in Cyan Town?
It is true, but there is something that My Lord doesnt know.
As Linda respectfully bowed again, she continued, ording to my investigation, years ago, when the former City Lord was in power, he cooperated with Ma Town, located northwest of Cyan Town beneath the Hundred Ranges, to develop an ore vein, and relocated arge number of civilians for mining work, including Celestes family.
So thats what happened.
Upon hearing this, a thoughtful expression appeared on Leo Rays face.
Leo Ray had heard reports about Ma Town from Linda before.
This town, about a day and a half by carriage from Cyan Town, is located at the foot of the Hundred Ranges.
Just like the more distant Golin City, it is a small mining town mainly engaged in ore extraction, with a scale nearly the same as Cyan Town.
It is also the nearestrge town in the northern region of Cyan Town.
Furthermore, it is said that our residents in Cyan Town often suffer from discrimination from the local residents of Ma Town, making their lives very difficult.
Then, Linda added with a bow.
In that case, lets go to Ma Town then.
With this thought, Leo Ray stretched his muscles and leisurely said to his subordinates beside him, After all, I am now the Lord of Cyan Town, and I cannot let the residents under my jurisdiction be oppressed by others.
By yourmand, My Lord!
On the other side, the subordinates saluted, speaking in unison.

Over the azure blue sky, white clouds floated like cotton, clean and unblemished.
Under the warmth and glow of two suns, big and small, the vast Hundred Ranges cloaked in perpetual snow shimmered under a veil of mist. The brilliant sunlight inteced with the swirling fog, creating a hazy division between heaven and the ground.
asionally, a few predatory beasts would soar past, spreading their wings wide and letting out shrill, grating caws.
Beneath the continuous stretch of the white peaksy expansive vibrant green fields.
As a gentle breeze passed, butterflies flitted about amongst the swaying flowers and grass.
The green ins, adorned with a plethora of colorful wildflowers, made a sharp contrast to the towering white peaks, lending the scenery an epic and majestic quality.
At the boundary between the snowy peaks and the green ins,
Stood a moderately sized town, the destination for Leo Ray and hispanions: Ma Town.
A century prior, the town nestled at the foot of the mountain consecutively discovered several rare ore veins, drawing a swarm of gold diggers from surrounding areas.
This cast the previously obscure town into a bustling period of prosperity.
However, the veins exhausted after consecutive, relentless mining efforts by the gold-diggers, and the town, akin to the numerous depleted mines,psed back into obscurity, lifeless and insignificant.
With no ore veins to be mined, the town was deserted.
Until a few years ago, when a new vein was discovered.
This time, seizing the opportunity, the current Lord of Ma City coborated with the Former Lord of Cyan City for joint exploitation.
They rigidly regted the number of outside gold miners and kept full control over the mining operations, keeping the process in steady hands.
Thus, the town seemed to return to its previous bustling state.
Within the height of the city walls, spanning the outer area of Ma Town.
Rows upon rows of shabby, dpidated houses could be seen, and numerous vernacr wooden structures lined the streets, contributing to a scene of absolute disorder.
As a chilly gust of wind swept past,
All the tottering wooden doors and windows creaked in unison, as if they could be blown away at any moment. An eerie mncholy pervaded the surroundings.
Due to its proximity to the snow-capped mountains, moisture clung heavily in the air.
Sometimes, melting snow would flow from the mountains, mixing with the residents wastewater to form a grid of stinky drains that constantly emitted a horrid smell.
In a narrow alleyway, a scruffy little girl with unkempt hair was seen skulking behind a decaying, ckened wooden wall.
This waifish girl clutched a tattered insect-catching in her hand, her dull and malnourished eyes ring intently at a Blue Stone Pigeon that had justnded in front of her.
Looking at the Tier 1 magical beast that had virtually no offensive ability, yearning welled up in the skinny little girls face.
After all, it had been quite some time since shest savored a square meal, let alone the elusive taste of meat.
Just when the little girl discerned the right moment to pounce, her body poised in anticipation, a stone suddenlynded in the filthy gutter beside her.
In a split second, the ssh of dirty water soaked the girl, who couldnt help but express her shock and dismay.
Furthermore, her desired prey, the Blue Stone Pigeon, had already taken flight out of rm.
Ha ha ha!
Not far away, a group of raggedy boys started to roar withughter at the girls somewhat pitiful state.
Immediately afterward, the leading boy stepped forward, brandishing a wooden stick, and barked, Outsider, go back to your Cyan Town! We dont wee you in Ma Town!
Thats right! Ever since you arrived, our already scarce food supplies have shrunk even further!
Another sallow-faced boy chimed in, Youre the parasites here!
Its your city lord who wouldnt let us leave. What makes you think we want to stay here?
Opposite them, the girl covered in grime retorted fearlessly, her small hands firmly grasping the insect-catching as she stood her ground.
Nonsense! Our City Lord would rather we were gone! In his protection only can we live in peace!
The ringleader boy picked up another stone, threatening to throw, and added, Not like you outsiders. Your city lord has probably abandoned you already, hasnt he? What a pitiful creature with no city lord to im.
Youre the one talking nonsense! Our city lord in Cyan Town is the best, and hell definitelye to take us home!
At these words, a resolute expression reced the slight confusion on the girls grimy face.
Ha ha ha, this is the funniest joke Ive heard all year!
The leading boy once again began to ridicule the girl, scoffing, Face the reality. Your city lord has long since abandoned you. You pitiful creature!
At that, the other boys joined in, making faces and echoing, Pitiful creature, unwanted by any city lord. A homeless pitiful creature!
Moreover, they started to throw pebbles at the girl.
Youve sessfully angered me now!

After dodging several small stones, the thin and frail little girl threw away her insect-catching and a faint magical energy wave began to emanate from her body.
Immediately, several dirty water orbs gathered above the muddy puddle beside her and, under hermand, they flew crookedly towards the group of little boys.
Not far away, several wet and drenched little boys realized that the situation was unfavorable and ran awayughing mockingly.
The Lord of Cyan Town will definitely take us back home! He definitely will!
ring at the departing boys, the little girl picked up her insect-catching again. Her thin and frail figure appeared particrly lonely in the long alley.
Once she was alone, uncertainty crept into her determined eyes as she muttered, But the City Lord must be very busy, right? Will he reallye to take us back home?
At this thought, the little girls stomach began to grumble. After using her self-created Water Bullet Skill, she felt even hungrier.
When was thest time I had a fragrant and delicious piece of bread? Was it on my birthday the year beforest? Ive already forgotten the taste. It was sweet, right?
As she lowered her long eyshes and swallowed her saliva, trying to carefully recall the scene of eating coarse bread.
Unbeknownst to her, six unfamiliar figures had appeared before her.
You who are you?
Feeling the strangeness before her, the small and thin little girl immediately took a step back, tightly gripping her insect-catching and leaning against the mottled wooden wall. Her tiny face was full of caution.
On the other side, a young and pretty woman with big eyes and a pointy witch hat, bent down and asked with a smile, Little girl, is this where the residents of Cyan Town live?
Without a doubt, this person was Scarlett.
By her side were Leo Ray, Taylor, Bianca White, Abigail, and Amelia.
As for Linda and Mason Banks, they had split up after entering Ma Town by Leo Raysmand.
Yes, I am a resident of Cyan Town!
Gazing up at the single ponytailed Scarlett in front of her, the little girl was somewhat shy but also extremely determined, her clear childlike voice ringing out, What do you want to do? My family is very poor! All the people in Cyan Town living here are very poor!
Dont worry, we dont have any ill intentions.
Leo Ray stepped forward, slightly bending down with a patient and gentle smile, We are also from Cyan Town.
As he spoke, Leo Rays heart moved, and a blue carved hairband embroidered with Cyan Towns distinctive pattern appeared in his palm.
Its the same pattern as my mothers hairband!
At the sight of this, the little girls guarded expression softened a bit. Her eyes lit up, and she blurted out.
Gazing at the emaciated and malnourished little girl in front of him, Leo Rays brows involuntarily furrowed.
Whether it was the pungent smell of the murky sewage in front of him or the rickety wooden shacks surrounding them, the environment here was far worse than he had imagined.
It was worth noting that this was the first time Leo Ray had seen such a small and malnourished native child since his advent in this otherworld.
Moreover, these were now the residents of Cyan Town under his rule.
I have to personally intervene in this matter. Ill start by investigating the nearby area. Also, judging from the scale of this massive slum, it seems that many local residents of Ma Town are also living here.
Thats right, I also need to hurry up and find Maid Celestes family. That is the top priority of this trip.
With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray perked himself up. While listening to the faint sounds of ore being excavated, he asked the little girl in front of him, The adults here should have all gone to the mine, right?
Yes.
The little girl nodded, her expression casual as she said, They usually work for about a week,e home to rest for one night, and then work for another week.
I have to say, they really are birds of a feather. The methods of the Lord of Ma City are even worse than those of the former Lord of Cyan City.
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly pursed his lips and then thought to himself, Of course, now that these people are my residents, the Lord of Ma City has no say.
As Leo Ray contemted this, he suddenly heard the little girls stomach grumbling.
On the other side, the little girls thin face turned red immediately, and she hastily exined, Its not me, Im not hungry
Scarlett, please begin your food transformation performance.
Helplessly shaking his head, Leo Ray reached out his hand towards Scarlett.
Understood, Lord.
Looking at the thin little girl in front of her, Scarlett didnt hesitate. She conjured an entire piece of honey-drenched butter toast and handed it respectfully to Leo Ray.
This is this bread?
Seeing the honey-butter toast in Leo Rays hand, disbelief filled the little girls emaciated face.
Looking at the delicious food she had been longing for right in front of her, the little girl swallowed her saliva eagerly.

Then, forcefully suppressing his drooling, he shook his head and said, Uncle no, big brother, this food is too precious, I have no money to buy it.
This is a reward for answering my question.
He smiled slightly, handed the bread to her little hand, and then Leo Ray instructed Scarlett to tie a carved hairband on the little girls hair, making a beautiful ponytail.
Thank you, big brother!
The little girl happily took the bread but just as she was about to take a big bite, she stopped halfway.
With a dim expression, she looked embarrassedly at Leo Ray and said, Big brother, I want to save this for my father to eat. He broke his leg in the mine a few days ago and is now recuperating at home.
Immediately after, the little girls eyes brightened, and she said, Oh, right! My father knows a lot of things. How about youe home with me, big brother?
Okay, lets do that.
After he finished speaking, Leo Ray took anotherrge piece of bread from Scarletts hand and promised to give it to the girlter.
Only then did she start to chew happily, her face filled with uncontainable joy.
At this time, only her two rows of white, shiny teeth were visible on her mud-covered face, making one feel both amused and moved.
On their way to the little girls house, Leo Ray learned that.
Her name was Estelle Reiss, and she only had her parents at home, as well as a sister who was said to be living in the royal capital.
However, this sister left home before Estelle was born, so they hadnt met.
Upon hearing this, after questioning her thoroughly,
Leo Ray finally confirmed that this little girl named Estelle Reiss was the biological sister of the maid Celeste!
Looking at the frail little girl who devoured therge piece of bread, Leo Ray let out a soft sigh and took a cup of juice from Scarlett and handed it to her.
Thank you, big brother! This feels like a birthday! When Estelle grows up, I will definitely treat you to something delicious too!
Gratefully epting the juice, Estelle respectfully bowed to Leo Ray. Her thin, emaciated little face finally revealed a long-lost, satisfied smile.
Immediately after, Estelle held the half-empty cup of juice in both hands, and her face showed a serious expression that did not match her age.
She raised her head and asked Leo Ray, By the way, big brother, since you are also from Cyan Town, do you know the City Lord?
City Lord?
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and replied softly, What do you need with the City Lord?
I dont want to hide from you, big brother. Everyone here bullies us, saying that we are the parasites of Ma Town and that I am a pitiful, homeless child. So, I want to ask the City Lord to take us home.
Estelle snuffled her mud-covered little nose and said, My father, mother, and the vige elder all said that the City Lord wouldnt save us because hes too busy and has forgotten about us.
However, I believe he will remember us, and he wille to take us home!
Lord
Hearing this, Scarlett and the others looked at Leo Ray with emotion.
Leo Ray nodded slightly, smiled faintly, and said, Dont worry, he has told me that the people of Cyan Town wont be managed by outsiders. He wille to take you all back.
Really? Thats great! I knew that City Lord would remember us!
Hearing this, Estelle jumped up happily and eximed, When I return, I must share this good news with everyone!
Thus, amidst Estellesughter and delight, Leo Ray and hispanions walked through several dark, sewage-filled alleys.
Finally, they stopped in front of a dpidated wooden house.
Big brother, this is where I live.
Estelle nodded to Leo Ray, and joyfully opened the squeaky door to the house.
Father, I brought some of our fellow people from Cyan Town! They are so nice, they even fed me!
With a crisp voice, Estelle called out.
Immediately, another weak middle-aged mans voice came from the wooden house, Estelle, speak quietly. Vige elder and some other elders are here.
Entering the room and stepping on the creaky, rotten floorboards, Leo Ray noticed that.
The wooden house was inplete disrepair without any decent furniture.
Just in the corner of the room, there were two low wooden beds, one big and one small.
At the same time, a strong moldy smell entered Leo Rays nostrils.
With a slight frown, Leo Ray nced around and saw that a pale middle-aged man was sitting on the big bed, surrounded by several emaciated, yellow-faced old men.
Through their breaths, it was clear they were just a group of poorly nourished ordinary farmers.
Im sorry, my friend. As Im injured, I cant get up to wee you, the middle-aged man nodded slightly to Leo Ray and said politely.
At this time, since everyone was wearing Illusion Cloaks and only Leo Ray and Scarlett had taken off their hooded caps, their attire remained that of ordinary people.
Young man, you said that you are from Cyan Town?
After looking up and down at Leo Rays simple attire, the white-haired elder in the lead asked, Since were from the same ce, I will tell you straightaway: please leave here as soon as possible.
If you are discovered by those people, you wont be able to leave even if you want to!
Oh? What do you mean by that?
Hearing this, Leo Ray smiled faintly and asked.
Of course, its because of the Mine Defense Team of Ma Town!
On the other side, the white-haired elder in the lead sighed heavily.
He then shook his head and said, They are a group of ruthless killers. If it werent for their strict checks, we would have escaped back to Cyan Town long ago and wouldnt be working ourselves to death for them.
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a thoughtful expression.
When entering the city, he indeed noticed that.
Among the ordinary defense forces of Ma Town, there were some fierce soldiers wearing leather armor who required a pass to enter and exit the city gates.
Therefore, Leo Ray and his group had to climb over the walls to get in.
It was also for this reason that among the surrounding towns, Leo Ray knew very little about Ma Towns situation, only understanding the distribution of their forces.
Old sir, isnt this mine jointly developed by Cyan Town and Ma Town? Why are you under the control of Ma Town? Are there no managers from Cyan Town here?
With this thought, Leo Ray couldnt help looking puzzled as he asked.
Ah, young man, you are ignorant.
On the other side, the white-haired elder shook his head slowly, and a helpless expression appeared on his old, emaciated face.

Trantor:549690339
At the beginning, our Cyan Town indeed coborated with Ma Town to develop the ore vein, and life was far less difficult than it is now.
The white-haired old mans murky eyes grew misty, clearly falling into nostalgia. However, three years ago, our City Lord of Cyan Town already withdrew from the mining voluntarily, and the mining rights fell back into the hands of Ma Town.
It seems that these civilians dont know that Cyan Town has changed hands.
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly nodded, a puzzled expression appearing on his face.
He contemted in his heart, However, mining is an incredibly profitable business. The former City Lord of Cyan Town, who was fond of reaping without sowing, actually gave it up voluntarily? There must be some mystery.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray moved to a somewhat intact piece of broken flooring and asked, Old sir, do you know the reason behind it?
Ah, we lowly civilians dont know the thoughts of our City Lord.
Heaving a heavy sigh, the wrinkles on the elderly mans face deepened as he continued mournfully, All I know is that we miners who moved from Cyan Town have be homeless throwaways.
Just as Leo Ray was speaking with the sorrowful white-haired old man,
Estelle Reiss, who was frail from hunger, already took arge piece of honey toast from Scarlett and happily handed it to her father.
Stunned, the middle-aged man in bed took the bread. After a brief moment, he showed both surprise and joy.
It was obvious that, just like Estelle, he had not seen such food in a long time from his constant swallowing reflex.
Thank you very much, Your Excellency!
However, the middle-aged man didnt keep it all for himself. He evenly shared the bread with the surrounding elders who were watching eagerly, while continuously expressing gratitude towards Leo Ray.
Leo Ray waved his hand slightly and, seeing their reluctance to eat, nodded at Scarlett again.
In an instant, the dpidated wooden table was filled with a feast of bread, cake, and juice. There was even an exquisite creamy white carved tablecloth spread on top.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but purse his lips.
No wonder Rudy Blues and the others had ordered multiple times this morning. It turned out that this girl had taken everything!
Even the tablecloth, cake, and juice were clearly from yesterdays Viennas City Auction.
He could forgive the cake, but who would have thought this girl not only took the food but also stuffed the tablecloth into her Storage Ring!
Witnessing this scene, the old men and Celestes father couldnt believe their eyes. They gulped down their saliva in unison, looking at Leo Ray with longing.
On the other hand, Leo Ray gave a slight nod, signaling them to dig in.
Amidst the profuse expressions of gratitude, the trembling elders swarmed the table like griffins, almost flying towards it.
Young man, it seems that you must be a merchant from Cyan Town, right?
While devouring the food, the leading elder struggled to chew and continued somewhat unclearly, Sir, please take an old mans advice: if theres no urgent business, leave this ce as soon as possible. Something is very wrong here, and those guards of Ma City, the Mine Defense Team, are a bloodthirsty bunch!
Very wrong?
Hearing this, Leo Rays expression grew even more curious. He signaled the elder to take his time eating while asking, Old sir, you do not need to worry about our safety. Just tell me everything you know.
Alright, its like this
Seeing Leo Rays determination, the white-haired old man sighed helplessly and began recounting the events.
Through his memories, Leo Ray learned that after the former City Lord of Cyan Town withdrew from developing the ore vein, the residents of Cyan Town who had migrated were ced under the jurisdiction of Ma Town.
From then on, things became even stranger.
Even the local farmers of Ma Town were conscripted by the City Lord to mine, causing the previously self-sufficient town to gradually struggle to even meet basic food requirements.
Naturally, the food supply for these miners became scarcer and scarcer.
No wonder the residents of Ma Town were so hostile to the migrants from Cyan Town. It turned out to be because of food.
Hearing this, Leo Ray appeared contemtive, musing in his heart. However, conscripting manpower for mining at the expense of food supply seems to be putting the cart before the horse.
What is the Ma City Lord scheming? To the point of going all-in and not even bothering to cultivate farnd?
Moreover, the City Lord established the heinous Mine Defense Team,pletely sealing off the city.
The white-haired old man shook his head, his deste expression full of helplessness and sadness. These vile men are extremely brutal and domineering. They not only prevent us miners from Cyan Town from leaving, but the local residents have also been subjected to the same treatment.
Isting the city from the outside world and mining at all costs, the City Lord of Ma City indeed exhibits some strange behavior. What exactly does he want to do? With Ma Town so close to Cyan Town, this matter requires further investigation.

Just as Leo Ray had made up his mind.
The white-haired old man at the head of the group addressed Estelles father on the bed, Logan, dont think Im a nagging old man, but even though your leg is broken, youve had plenty of rest already.
Those soldiers from the mine defense team might stille to get you back to work, and by then, things could get very serious, and blood might be shed!
Vige head, I want to go back too, but
At this point, Estelles father tried to prop himself up to get off the bed but failed to stand steady after several attempts. The broken leg wrapped in tattered cloth was seeping blood.
Just at that moment, there was a sudden dense sound of footsteps outside the house.
Are they finally here?
Noticing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
About ten minutes ago, Taylor had reported that a small team consisting of Tier 2 strangers was heading towards the direction of the wooden house.
Presumably, these people were the so-called mine defense team.
Oh no, young man, theyre here!
Not until now did the several old men and Estelles father sense the situation, each showing their uncontroble fear as they hurriedly urged, Theres a back door in the house. You guys hurry and run, they are a group of ruthless thugs we cant afford to provoke!
Meanwhile, little Estelle also showed a frantic look and stretched out her small hand to pull Leo Rays sleeve, wanting to take him away as soon as possible.
Gentlemen, theres no need to panic.
First patting Estelles little head, Leo Ray waved his hand and smiled faintly.
Undoubtedly, Leo Ray wouldnt take these people seriously.
At present, besides Tier 5 level Taylor, Scarlett, Abigail, Amelia, and the Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse Bianca, are with him.
Additionally, Linda and Mason Banks were investigating the surrounding area.
Also, this time, before leaving the territory, Leo Ray had taken all 24 Tier 3 Earth Guardians, along with two idle Tier 3 Sky Guardians, with him.
With suchbat power, even if all the soldiers of Ma Town were gathered, Leo Ray could handle it with ease.
After all, ording to Linda, the size of the defense army here is on par with that of Cyan Town, at most around 2,000 people, mostly still at Tier 1 level.
There are two elite Guard Corps teams, which should be the nefarious Mine Defense Team.
As for the number of Tier 3 Powerhouses, including the Lord of Ma City, there are only a few.
Ive heard many times that these so-called mine defense teams have been domineering, stepping on the heads of our Cyan Town residents. As the current Lord of Cyan City, let me have a good look at just how capable they are.
As Leo Ray thought with aposed expression at this point.
Boom!
The next second, the shabby door of the wooden house was brutally kicked open.
Immediately after, nearly ten Tier 2 Powerhouses with long swords and leather armor filed in.
These people had murderous looks in their eyes, and the sharp des gleamed with coldness, revealing their murderous faces.
Seeing this scene, the several old men in the house, as well as Estelle and her father, showed extreme horror, as if they had seen the grim reaper.
It seems that the residents of Cyan Town here have indeed suffered a lot of oppression from these people.
Feeling Estelles trembling little body beside him, a touch of hard-to-detect chill shed through Leo Rays eyes.
On the other side, after the group of men entered, they first nced at Leo Ray and others, and when they found that everyone appeared ordinary, their eyes fell on Estelles father lying on the bed.
Needless to say, these people were only at Tier Second level, and naturally couldnt see the depth of Leo Ray and his group.
The burly man standing at the forefront, his eyes full of malice as they darted about, looked at the uneaten bread and other food on the table, then looked at Estelles father lying on the bed, and coldly said, No wonder you didnt show up for work on time, instead having a banquet here!
Please forgive me, my Lord!
The white-haired elder at the head stepped forward nervously and trembled, Logans leg injury is indeed very sev-
However, before the old man could finish his words, the gloomy-faced man violently pushed him into the corner. He then drew his wide-de sword from his waist and threatened, Even if your Cyan City Lordes here today, this cripple must work for me!
After saying this, the burly man waved the sword in his hand, which was emanating a chilling cold, and coldly said, Otherwise, Ill separate his leg from his foot for real!
Oh? That seems to be a bit of an exaggeration, doesnt it?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray spoke up lightly.
Who are you? When ites to the matters of Ma Towns mine defense team, its not your turn as an outsider to intervene.
After scrutinizing Leo Ray up and down again, a strong murderous intent began to emanate from the burly man as he slowly said, Otherwise, you wont walk out of Ma Town alive!
Unfortunately, Ill be handling todays matter.
Ignoring the burly mans threats, Leo Ray said calmly.
Then die!
With that, the burly mans eyes filled with murderous intent, and a lethal cold light was drawn from the sword in his hand. With a gust of wind, the de shed straight at Leo Ray.

Trantor: 549690339
Seeing this scene, the other members of the defense team sessively cheered in satisfaction, their faces showing a touch of ridicule, and disdainfully looked at Leo Ray.
This was their captains famous ultimate skill, the Heavy Splitting sh, which had imed the lives of countless foolish Cyan Town miners. It seemed that they were about to add one more today.
On the other side, including the white-haired old man who was heavily pushed into the corner, the other elders, and Estelle Reiss and her father, all showed panicked expressions.
It should be known that this burly man was a Tier 2 Nine-Star Powerful, said to be only one step away from Tier Third level, and could be considered one of the top powerhouses in Ma Town.
It seemed that this young mans chances of survival were slim!
However, in the next second, something unexpected happened.
Just as the burly mans sword, shing with a dazzling cold light, was about to approach Leo Ray.
A thick, powerful hand had already firmly grasped the burly mans neck.
In an instant, apanied by a crisp crack sound, under the unbelievable gazes of the other defense team members, along with the several elders and Estelle Reiss and her father.
The hulking man who was just preparing to ughter people had already fallen to the ground with his eyes wide open and full of bloodshot fear, losing his vital signs.
Undoubtedly, the one who took action was Taylor.
For a moment, the entire cabin was silent, and everyone was obviously stunned by the incredible scene before them.
A battle-hardened Tier 2 Peak powerhouse had died so cleanly?
It should be known that to aplish this feat, one would have to be at least a Tier Third level powerhouse!
But how could such a powerhouse casually appear here?
The most critical question was who exactly was this indifferent young man with such a powerhouse at his disposal?
Thinking of this, the other Mine Defense Team members who had just been cheering excitedly all had faces filled with terror.
Their faces, which once held smugness, now only revealed an obvious fear as they looked back at Leo Ray.
Dont panic, we still have 9 Tier 2 Powerhouses here. Even if the opponent is a Tier 3 Powerhouse, they cant possibly be our match!
At this moment, a defense team member with a fierce expression on his face said, Lets kill them together, well surely be rewarded!
Hearing this, the faces of the other Mine Defense Team members couldnt help but show a tinge of greed, as their energy surged, seemingly ready to take action any moment.
Act now, its time to make these people pay.
Saying this, Leo Ray turned and walked towards the back door with Estelle, and spoke to his subordinates.
After Leo Ray and Estelle left the wooden house and closed the door, a bloody and violent storm swept through the room.
By the time Leo Ray came back inside, the battlefield had already been cleaned up, leaving almost no trace of blood.
At the same time, Leo Ray noticed that Linda, Mason Banks, and the others who had been assigned to gather intel had already arrived and bowed their heads in respect.
Young man, youve really stirred up big trouble this time!
The white-haired old man, who had been helped up, stumbled forward with a face filled with deathly gray gloom, and said, Once they realize their people are missing, they will surelyunch a citywide manhunt! We wont survive then!
At this point, it was clear from the panic on the old mans face that he had lost hisposure.
Impudence! Old man, do you know who this esteemed person standing before you is?
At this moment, a resolute middle-aged man from Lindas group stepped forward, took off his hooded cap, and spoke.
Identifying the middle-aged mans face, the leading old man, along with the other elders, looked at each other in confusion.
All of these people had lived in Cyan Town for most of their lives and naturally recognized the middle-aged man he was the well-knownmander of Cyan Towns Defense Army, Rhizoma Drynariae.
Commander Rhizoma, how did you end up here?
After a moment of hesitation, the leading white-haired old man asked with a puzzled expression, You said this young man is a big shot?
Thats right! The person standing before you is our Cyan Towns new City Lord!
With Leo Rays permission, Rhizoma Drynariae spoke with righteous sternness.
What?! Hes the City Lord?!
Upon hearing this, the several old men and Estelles father showed shocked expressions on their faces, hardly believing their own ears.
They never thought that the calm-looking young man in front of them would actually be their absolute ruler: the City Lord!
Even more unexpected was that the lofty City Lord would appear before them, lowly civilians, as amoner!
Not only was he unpretentious, but he even treated them to a tasty meal, a delicacy they hadnt enjoyed in years. This was simply overwhelming.
It should be known that the previous Lord of Cyan City treated them as disposable pawns!
Comparing the two, it was clear who was superior.
Thinking of this, the Cyan Town residents who had been living away from home for years could no longer hold back their emotions and began to tremble with excitement.
For a moment, they even thought they were dreaming.
We, the residents of Cyan Town, pay homage to our City Lord!
Excited, everyone knelt on the ground, humbly bowing their heads to Leo Ray.
Even Estelles father, who couldnt get out of bed, struggled in bed to make this gesture.
Big brother Youre actually our City Lord?!
On the other side, Estelle, who had just entered the door, had a puzzled expression on her little face and could hardly believe it.
Estelle, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and kneel to the City Lord!
Seeing this, Estelles father quickly reminded her.
Its not necessary.
Waving his hand slightly, Leo Ray patted Estelles head and said with a faint smile, What, surprised?
Of course Im surprised! But I knew big brother No, the City Lord woulde to find us because our City Lord is the most powerful City Lord!
Nodding her head heavily, the slender Estelles face was filled with anticipation and said, City Lord, are you here to take us home?
Correct, Im here to take you home. On the other side, Leo Ray smiled and looked at her with bright eyes.

Trantor: 549690339
City Lord, are you really here to take us back?
Upon hearing Leo Rays affirmative answer, the white-haired elder leading the group trembled as he asked, and a tidal wave of emotions surged in his heart.
Throughout these years, he had only seen the familiar scenes of his hometown in his dreams.
Unexpectedly, it was precisely due to the appearance of this young man No, this young City Lord, that his old bones could finally experience their dreamsing true!
For those who had left their homes for many years, this was an unparalleled grace.
Absolutely.
With a faint nod, Leo Ray looked at the aged and excited face and smiled, Old sir, just leave it to us from now on. You dont need to make a fuss. Just wait patiently.
As he said this, Leo Ray bent down and said to the excited-looking Estelle, Dont worry, it wont be long before I take you all home.
After finishing speaking, Leo Ray beckoned and gathered Linda, Mason Banks, and Rhizoma Drynariae, who had been conducting investigations within the city.
At this point, the group of nine-strong experts who hade to this mission was reunited.
Upon arriving at Ma Town, Leo Ray brought Rhizoma Drynariae, themander of the Cyan Town Defense Army, because themander of Ma Towns Defense Army was an oldrade of Rhizoma Drynariae.
Although the two had not been in touch in recent years, they might be able to provide some help.
So, aftering to this city, under Leo Raysmand, the group was divided into two.
One group conducted investigations from Cyan Town residents perspective, while the other investigated from Rhizoma Drynariaes oldrades and the other city residents angle.
Now, they reached a quiet spot in a deste courtyard at the back, facing the cold wind that asionally blew down from the white snowy peaks above.
First, Leo Ray repeated the information he had just obtained to the other three members of the team.
Then, he furrowed his brow and asked, How about it? What did you find on your side?
My Lord, this Ma Town is indeed extremely strange.
Linda removed the hood of her Illusion Cloak, and her freckle-filled vige girl face immediately became her refined, cool demeanor. She began, Firstly, we noticed that in this city, besides the essential dining areas,
all the cksmith shops, tailor shops, and inns have closed down. Dust covers their surroundings, so they obviously havent been in operation for a long time.
After inquiring, we learned that a few years ago, under the orders of the Ma City Lord, almost all of the citys inhabitants joined the mining effort, leading the entire city into a state of semi-paralysis.
Oh? Itse to this point?
Upon hearing this, Leo Rays face revealed a look of surprise as he paced by the dpidated wooden fence and started to ponder.
Originally, he had thought that abandoningrge amounts of farnd and turning farmers into miners was already a case of putting the cart before the horse.
Little did he know that the Lord of Ma City had also mobilized nearly all the citys cksmiths, tailors, and a few other skilled workers to mine.
Such action can no longer be described as a desperate attempt, but simply as madness.
At this thought, Leo Rays expression grew more curious, and he quietly pondered, What on earth does this Ma City Lord want to do?
Could it be that the attraction of this ore vein has reached such a high level that even the citys basics no longer need to be maintained?
If thats the case, why did the former Cyan Town Lord give up mining in the first ce? Its simply baffling.
With a slight sideways ncing, Leo Ray contemted for a moment before asking, Linda, what is produced in the mine?
My Lord, the mine produces a rather rare mineral called zing Crystal.
On the other side, Linda respectfully saluted.
zing Crystal?
Upon hearing this, Scarlett blinked her big eyes and chimed in, This is a fire-attribute crystal. Although it is quite rare, its limited applications seem to prevent it from fetching an extremely high price, right?
Thats right, and this is also the strange part of Ma Town.
Linda smoothed out her slightly messy hair and nodded, continuing, This minerals price in the Coldme Kingdom is only slightly higher than that of Light Crystal Stones, far from being considered expensive,
As such, its still eptable as a side business, but its really hard to understand why theyre mining so recklessly without any regard for consequences.
Undoubtedly, as the person in charge of managing Sanders Trading Conference, she was naturally well-informed about the prices in the Coldme Kingdom.
There must be some hidden secrets.
After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray gazed up at the towering, snowy peak above his head and thoughtfully said, I have to say, this Ma City Lord is even more enigmatic than we thought.
After saying that, Leo Ray turned to the Cyan Town Defense Army Commander and asked, Rhizoma Drynariae, how is your oldrade?
My Lord, when I met him, he was on duty at the city gate. Due to the presence of soldiers from the so-called Mine Defense Team, we didnt chat much but made an appointment to meet at the edge of the slums entrance at noon.
With a step forward, Rhizoma Drynariae respectfully raised his fist and saluted, Furthermore, my old friend has an honest and straightforward character who rarely beats around the bush, so we should be able to obtain some new clues from him.

I see.
Slowly withdrawing his gaze from the snowy mountains, Leo Ray nodded slightly and said, It seems that the real power in this city is held by these so-called Mine Defense Teams, while the ordinary city defense army is just a foil.
My Lord, I have discovered this too.
After bowing once again to Leo Ray, Rhizoma Drynariae spoke, My old friend was promoted to the tier of Tier 3 Powerhouses a few years ago. However, from his expression at that time, he seemed to be quite apprehensive of the Mine Defense Team squad leader, who was only at the Tier 2 Peak Level.
Things are getting more and more interesting.
Nodding thoughtfully, Leo Ray stretchedzily before addressing his subordinates, In any case, we can now confirm that the strange vortex surrounding the entire Ma Town is concentrated on the Lord of Ma City.
Next, lets start our investigation with Rhizoma Drynariaes old friend, who is themander of the Ma Town Defense Army.
By yourmand, my Lord!
On the other hand, the subordinates responded in unison, saluting and speaking in one voice.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray led his subordinates back to the shabby wooden house that was on the verge of copse.
Looking at Estelle Reisss father lying on the bed, Leo Ray had a Tier 2 Healing Potion with a unique fragrance appear in his hand with a wave of his mind.
Just a moment ago, after Taylor and the others had examined Estelles fathers leg injury, they discovered that it was indeed very serious, and this magic medicine could have an extremely great healing effect.
For a while, the damp room was immediately filled with a peculiar fragrance, making everyone feel refreshed and invigorated.
City Lord, whatwhat is this?
Gazing at the translucent and round alchemical product in Leo Rays hand, Estelles father couldnt help but look puzzled.
At the same time, several white-haired old men around also began to look at each other.
These ordinary civilians had naturally never seen this kind of Miracle Medicine that circted only in upper-ss society.
This is a Tier 2 Healing Potion. Take it quickly.
Hearing this, Leo Ray didnt exin further but just smiled slightly and handed the magic medicine to their hands.
Ithank you so much, City Lord!
Trembling as he took the magic medicine, Estelles father immediately showed an incredulous expression and fell into a state of shock.
It must be known that this item, worth tens of thousands of Gold Dragons, was an absolutely unreachable and unimaginable dream for people like them!
On the other side, several old men also revealed shocked expressions and were instantly dumbfounded.
At this moment, everyone felt as if they were in a dream-like state.
To be so favored by the City Lord, they wouldnt have dared to think of it even in their dreams before!
Next, as it was almost noon, Leo Ray first arranged for Estelle and her father, as well as several other old men, to temporarily hide in a secluded area of the slums.
After that, he led his subordinates to move quickly towards the direction agreed upon with Rhizoma Drynariaes formerrade.
Two suns, one big and one small, shone fiercely in the sky.
At the edge of the slum in Ma Town, copsed wooden houses and scattered garbage mixed together, along with the foul-smelling, muddy drains running in-between, painting a picture of chaos and destion.
At this moment, a figure dressed as an ordinary farmer stood in front of a dpidated house.
It was none other than Rhizoma Drynariae, who was wearing an Illusion Cloak but had removed the hooded cap.
Previously, through Leo Rays numerous attempts and experiments, the subordinates hadpletely mastered the use of Illusion Cloaks.
If they put on the cloak and wore the hood that came with it, they wouldpletely transform into another person.
However, if they only wore the cloak without the hood, it would only change their clothes, which was very convenient.
Not long after, as a gust of wind swept by and dust filled the air, another burly figure d in defense army light armor came whistling.
As the dust gradually settled, the burly figure with an impressive aura became clear.
This mans age was almost the same as Rhizoma Drynariaes, both already middle-aged with an unyielding look on their faces.
From his aura, it was evident that he had reached the Tier 3 Powerhouse Level.
Moreover, on his dark left cheek, there was a conspicuous scar, presumably caused by some attack magic.
Rhizoma Drynariae, I didnt expect you toe to Ma Town to find me!
With a heartyugh, the man quickly approached with excitement and stretched out his arms for a hug.
Nathan Howard, long time no see.
On the other side, Rhizoma Drynariae also had a smile on his face as he went for a big hug with Nathan Howard.
When they stood up again, Nathan Howard, feeling a much stronger aura from Rhizoma Drynariaepared to himself, couldnt help showing a slightly surprised look on his face.
It should be noted, back when they were both at Tier 2 Peak Level, Nathan Howard had advanced to Tier 3 Powerhouse first on the battlefield.
But just a few years had passed since theirst meeting, and now, Rhizoma Drynariaes aura seemed to be significantly higher than his own.
Rhizoma Drynariae, you must have practiced diligently these years. Your strength is already above mine, your old friend.

Trantor: 549690339
Nathan smiled and joked, You didnt take a Tier 3 magic medicine that enhances strength, did you?
With a slight shrug, Rhizoma Drynariae nodded and said, Thats right. If it werent for our City Lord giving me two Rose Gathering Energy Pills a few days ago, my strength would probably be even weaker than yours.
Huh?
On the other side, Nathans expression turned incredulous upon hearing Rhizoma Drynariaes somewhat bragging reply.
Originally, he was just trying to crack a joke, but he didnt expect Rhizoma Drynariae to actually give an affirmative answer!
Keep in mind that this guy never lies!
But, a Tier 3 strength-enhancing magic medicine costs at least a million gold dragons at the auction house, and he gave you two? How is that possible? Just one is equivalent to the ie of an ordinary town for several years!
At this moment, Nathan had a doubtful expression, silently pondering in his heart, The key is that Cyan Town doesnt have any mines. And even if they did, its not possible to reward subordinates so easily, right?
Its impossible for there to be such a good City Lord who treats his/her subordinates like this!
Despite thinking this way, Nathans face still subtly revealed a hint of envy.
In contrast, the Lord of Ma City, where they were located, was simply beyond description.
Nathan, you must have heard that our Cyan Town has a new City Lord, right?
After exchanging pleasantries with him, Rhizoma Drynariaes expression became serious again and said, To be honest, I came to Ma City precisely because I am following our City Lord here.
What? You mean the City Lord of Cyan Town is also here?
Upon hearing this, Nathan once again showed a surprised expression.
Thats right, our City Lord came here for the residents of Cyan Town who were trapped here.
Rhizoma Drynariae nodded with a serious expression.
There is actually such a City Lord who personally came for the residents abandoned here years ago?
Upon hearing this, Nathan felt a great shock to his worldview and could hardly believe his own ears.
Although he didnt want to think about it, their Lord of Ma City was, after all, the culprit behind all this!
Byparison, Nathan, themander of Ma Towns Defense Army, suddenly felt a mix of emotions.
Well, Nathan, although I would like to continue chatting with you about the golden years we fought together on the battlefield, I believe you should be more familiar with Ma Towns current situation than me, an outsider, right?
Stretching out his big hand to pat Nathans shoulder, Rhizoma Drynariae continued, Why dont we join forces to solve Ma Towns crisis first?
Join forces to solve it?
On the other side, Nathan was taken aback. With a look of surprise on his resolute face, he asked, Rhizoma Drynariae, are you saying that your City Lord is willing to help our Ma Towns residents?!
At this moment, Nathans heart was filled with countless thoughts.
As themander of Ma Towns Defense Army, he knew Ma Towns current situation better than anyone.
In recent years, under the control of Ma City Lord and his two Tier 2 Mine Defense Middle Teams, the entire Ma Town was on the verge of copse.
Unlike them, who were born and raised defenders of the town, the City Lords henchmen were all evil mercenaries, bandits, and mountain robbers recruited from outside a few years ago.
They were extremely ruthless in their actions, and whether it was the miners of Ma Town or those from Cyan Town, anyone who did not act ording to their way would face serious consequences, resulting in everyones pent-up anger.
And their family members were tightly controlled by these people, coupled with the oppression of their City Lord, they were naturally powerless.
Thats why when Rhizoma Drynariae said those words, it was like a glimmer of dawn in the darkness, which instantly caused a huge ripple in Nathans heart.
Thats correct, our City Lord of Cyan Town has made such a n.
Rhizoma Drynariae nodded with a touch of pride. So, Nathan, are you willing to help us?
Hearing this, excitement filled Nathans heart. He looked around to make sure no one was following them before excitedly saying, I am willing to assist your City Lord!
And so, momentster, Nathan, themander of Ma Towns Defense Army, arrived in front of Leo Ray, guided by Rhizoma Drynariae.
At this time, they were in a small and inconspicuous wooden house, where the group had been waiting for a while.
Looking clearly at Leo Ray, who was sitting at the top position, Nathans eyes revealed an uncertain expression as he silently pondered, Is this the new City Lord of Cyan Town?
How can he be so young? Moreover, I cant feel any aura of a powerful person from him, and his entourage doesnt exude any energy fluctuations either. They seem to be just ordinary people.
Realizing this, Nathan straightened up his body a bit.
It should be noted that no matter what, he was a true and respected Tier 3 Two-Star expert.
That said, does the other party really have the ability to help us resolve Ma Towns crisis?
Just as Nathans eyes were shing with doubt.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who was sitting in the top position, nodded to a burly man beside him and said calmly, Taylor, lets begin.
Yes, my Lord!
A resounding voice rang out, and in an instant, an overwhelming aura surged from Taylors sturdy body.
Like a torrential flood, it instantly enveloped the entire wooden house.
Before Nathan could react,
The next second, a series of powerful auras erupted from Leo Ray and the others, causing the entire room to be filled with energy, almost making it hard to breathe.
After a while, the dumbfounded Nathan finally recovered.
It turned out that in the whole room, his strength was the weakest.

Trantor: 549690339
So, its because I cant see through the strength of anyone in the room And that burly man seems to be a Tier 5 Powerhouse with immense strength!
At this moment, Nathan Howard was looking at Leo Ray sitting in the top position and the subordinates standing proudly, feeling a surge of awe in his heart.
He never expected that the young man with a gentle face in front of him was hiding such a vast amount of power!
Having the loyalty of a Tier 5 Powerhouse, who exactly is this young lord? Is he really just a City Lord?
As he looked up at theposed Leo Ray, Nathans throat rolled, and he couldnt help but swallow.
With such strength, its more than enough to deal with the two Tier Second level mine defense teams equipped with sophisticated gear!
Realizing this, a trace of uncontroble joy appeared on Nathans resolute face.
If this Lord is willing to help the people of Ma Town,
Then, these dark days may finally being to an end!
I know that Rhizoma Drynariae has a rigid and upright character, so much so that he didnt get along with the former Lord of Cyan Town.
Overjoyed, Nathan continued to think: However, this new City Lord can actually make someone like Rhizoma Drynariae sing his praises and willingly submit, which shows that he is no ordinary person.
Whats even more incredible is that this Lord is willing to save the trapped residents of Cyan Town s, if only my City Lord had half of his magnanimity.
Our Ma Town wouldnt have fallen into such a miserable state!
At this thought, the crisp sound of armor shing rang out, as Nathan lowered his head, kneeled to Leo Ray, and said, Commander Nathan of the Ma Town Defense Army, pays his respects to the Lord of Cyan Town!
Commander Nathan, theres no need for such formalities.
Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray slightly raised his hand, gesturing for him to stand, and then said, I presume you are already aware of our purpose foring here? Well need Commander Nathans help on this trip, please forgive us for any inconvenience.
My Lord, youre too kind.
On the other side, Nathan hurriedly waved his hand, looking somewhat overwhelmed as he said, To be honest, in recent years, due to the City Lords stubborn insistence on ordering everyone to mine without regard for consequences,
The entire Ma Town is on the verge of copse, making it difficult to secure even the most basic needs, like food and clothing. Coupled with the high-intensity work, the cries of hunger and cold can be heard everywhere, as the poption sharply declines.
If this continues, Im afraid it wont be long before Ma Town bes a ghost town.
Having said this, Nathan sighed and shook his head helplessly, continuing, Even our two Defense Army Corps take turns guarding and mining in Ma Town. As for our sries, it is a great fortune just to stay alive.
So it has reallye to this point.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray lifted his teacup and took a sip of the fragrant tea just brewed by Abigail before asking, What exactly happened at that time, causing the Lord of Ma City to be so desperate in ordering everyone to mine?
My Lord, as for this matter, I dont quite understand it either.
Nathan sighed softly again, looking puzzled as he shook his head and went on, As you might already know, back then, this zing Crystal Mine was being developed jointly by the former Lord of Cyan City and our Lord of Ma City.
At first, everything was normal until one day, an unexpected turn of events urred.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded and gestured for Nathan to continue.
Once, our Lord of Ma Town suddenly gathered us officials and announced that from then on, Ma Town would exclusively develop the ore vein. He then ordered the removal of the Mercenary Guild, Merchant Union, Sanders Trading Conference, and all other forces in the city.
At this time, Nathans eyes seemed lost in memories, At that time, the opposing officials were all imprisoned by the City Lord without exception. It was also during that period that our City Lord sessively recruited two notorious mine defense middle teams from outside the city.
Upon saying this, Nathan clenched his fists tightly and continued, The members of these two mine defense middle teams are all above the Tier Second level and well-equipped, with three Tier 3 Powerhouses stationed.
Our two Defense Army Corps, however, only have me as a Tier Third-levelmander. We barely have enough food every day, and our weapons and equipment are in terrible condition.
Moreover, with our families controlled by them and with threats and promises, weve been enduring silently until now.
However, Im not hiding it from my Lord, recently, when we could bear it no longer, weve been looking for an opportunity to let them taste the bitterness.
I see.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray signaled Amelia by his side to pour Nathan another cup of tea and continued to listen intently.
Thank you very much, my Lord!
epting the steaming white porcin cup, an overwhelmed Nathan thought for a moment before saying, By the way, theres one more thing. Under the order of our City Lord at that time,
Chapter 361 - 319: The Strange Magnet City Lord【5K】_2
Chapter 361: Chapter 319: The Strange Ma City Lord5K_2
Trantor: 549690339
I once secretly transported a collection worth hundreds of thousands of Gold Dragons to the outskirts of Cyan Town and handed it over to the mercenary corps under themand of the former Lord of Cyan City.
I remember now
Upon hearing this, Rhizoma Drynariae revealed an expression of sudden realization.
Thoughtfully, he said, I recall that a few years ago, the former City Lord indeed obtained arge number of valuable items all at once, which led him to happily contribute a third of the funds to purchase new Tier 2 equipment for me and several other Defense Army Battalion Commanders. Now that I think about it, it must have been when he withdrew from the mine!
Having said that, Rhizoma Drynariaes gaze towards Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a few more traces of unconcealed admiration.
No matter how you look at it, the former Lord of Cyan City was simply iparable to the current Lord.
I understand now. It turns out that the former City Lord ultimately sumbed to a huge sum of money. This indeed aligns with his style of seizing and plundering by force.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Indeed, no wonder the former City Lord would give up mining. A rough estimate of several hundred thousand Gold Dragons could equal the total ie of Ma Towns mining operations for several years.
At this point, Linda, who was by his side, also disyed a look of sudden enlightenment.
However, she immediately revealed a puzzled expression on her pretty face, But that makes things even more bizarre. Why would the Lord of Ma City do this? Isnt this equivalent to handing over the profits from the mine in the past few years to the former Lord of Cyan City?
Not only that, what is even more iprehensible is that our Lord of Ma City hasnt sold any of the mined ores in recent years but kept them all in his own hands
On the other side, Nathan Howards resolute face was filled with bafflement, he continued, Moreover, even the City Lord Mansion was moved directly into a mine filled with arge amount of ore. Its simply baffling.
The mined ores were not sold? He directly moved the City Lord Mansion into the mine?
Upon hearing this, everyone present showed puzzled expressions.
Thats right, our City Lord has ruled Ma Town for over a decade. Prior to that, his personality was just a little impulsive and irritable, but it was far from the madness we see now.
On the other side, Nathan Howard shook his head helplessly.
So, this Lord of Ma City changed suddenly after mining the ore vein?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray stroked his chin and pondered, It seems that all of this clearly has a close connection with the zing Crystal Mine Vein. So much so that he would rather give up arge amount of Gold Dragons and part ways with the former Lord of Cyan City, choosing to monopolize the mine vein.
But its really hard to understand.
Lindas eyebrows furrowed, she said, What kind of magic does this zing Crystal Mine Vein possess that could enchant the Lord of Ma City so much that he would even move into the mine?
As for that, we currently dont know.
After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray finished his cup of tea and summarized, In short, what can be confirmed now is that such a price cannot be considered top-tier for zing Crystals, but it obviously has an extraordinary appeal to the Lord of Ma City.
Moreover, this appeal is far beyond the normal range, causing him to be willing to abandonrge amounts of wealth, his people, and even the entire city. As for why this irrational situation urs, Im afraid only the Lord of Ma City himself knows.
Its really baffling.
With a sigh, Linda nodded thoughtfully.
Alright, since we have already learned about this, the next course of action is clear C first cut off the Mine Defense Team, which is the wings of the Lord of Ma City, and then directly question the person in question.
Putting down the teacup, Leo Ray stood up and addressed the group of powerful individuals and Nathan Howard who were seated lower down.
Please rest assured, my Lord. During this operation, our two Defense Army Battalions in Ma Town will fully cooperate with your actions and fight side by side with you!
Facing them, Nathan Howards face couldnt help but reveal an excited expression, stating, Ive been wanting to tear those evildoers to pieces for a long time already!
Central urban area of Ma Town, headquarters of the Mine Defense Team.
At this moment, inside a spacious and brightly lit hall, a middle-aged man with a malicious face sat at the top, closing his eyes to rest.
Beneath him stood more than ten equally stern and powerful figures.
Vice Team Leader, the work efficiency of the residents of Cyan Town has noticeably declined recently. Should we give them a bloody lesson?
At this moment, a thin and tall man at the lower seat sneered with a smile.
Kill a few, just to serve as a longsting reminder.
Nodding slightly, the malicious man at the top slowly opened his eyes and spoke softly.
By the way, Vice Team Leader, Eli Cornelius led a team to deal with ame miner from Cyan Town but hasnt returned yet. Should we send someone to check it out?
The thin and tall man saluted with a fist and asked.
Dont worry, Eli Cornelius is a tall and strong guy, but also a Tier 2 Peak Level expert. Im afraid that something must have dyed him on his way back.

Chapter 362: Chapter 319: The Strange Ma City Lord5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
Before the fierce-looking man could speak, another powerful figure sitting at the lower seat chuckled lewdly.
Hehe, true that.
The gaunt man immediately revealed a simr grin.
Then, he looked towards the fierce-looking man sitting at the higher seat and said, Vice Team Leader, our Team Leader has been gone for a few days, meeting a Tier 4 level bandit senior; there should be some results soon, right?
Should be soon. Lately, that seemingly harmless Nathan has been up to something sneaky. When the timees, naturally, we will have these useless people give up on their ideas.
The fierce-looking man nodded slightly and continued, Moreover, ording to the Team Leader, the Lord of Ma City has grown increasingly strange recently.
Even the Team Leader whos at the Tier 3 Peak Level has felt a dangerous threat emanating from him. Once the Tier 4 senior arrives, perhaps Ma Town will be ours.
Hahaha, fantastic! Then we can do whatever we want!
Hearing that, a chilling smile spread across the gaunt mans face, and he eagerly chimed in.
Meanwhile, the other powerful figures burst intoughter as well.
At this moment, with a dull thud, the tightly closed door was slowly pushed open.
Soon after, a tall and upright young man appeared first in the eyes of these murderous powerhouses, surrounded by a group of figures.
Without a doubt, this was Leo Ray.
Standing behind Leo Ray were the main subordinates led by Nathan.
Who is that?
Surprised by the sight, the fierce-looking man at the higher seat frowned and looked at the calm Leo Ray not far away.
At the same time, a powerful, murderous aura burst forth from the fierce-looking man.
Following suit, the other powerhouses at the lower seat drew their longswords as well.
Keep in mind, this was the main hall of the Mine Defense Team headquarters, which the city residents usually avoided like the gue.
The calm-faced young man who dared to push the door open and enter was the first in history to do so.
Undoubtedly, this was challenging the absolute authority of the Mine Defense Team.
Immediately, when the fierce-looking man recognized Nathan behind Leo Ray, he snarled, Nathan, what do you mean by bringing these people here?
On the other side, before Nathan could speak, Leo Ray calmly stated, No special meaning, just here to clear out the trash.
What?!
Upon hearing this, the murderously-aura-filled powerhouses froze for a moment and then burst intoughter.
Did I hear that right? This kid actually dared toe to our Mine Defense Team headquarters and spout such nonsense?
Hahaha, is this some new Demon Beast Circus performance?
Though the guy is a bit stupid, hes quite gifted in theedy department.
Kid, if you want to die, Ill grant your wish!
Hearing his subordinates mock, the fierce-looking man sitting at the higher seat burst intoughter as well.
Without hesitation, he grabbed the cold, shimmering long spear beside him and charged at breakneck speed.
In that moment, energy wrapped around the metal spear handle; the sharp spear tip tore through the air, emitting a piercing, sharp Dragon Roar as it rushed towards Leo Ray.
You should know that this fierce-looking man had already reached the Tier 3 Eight-Star level, just a step away from the Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse.
In the entire Mine Defense Team and even the entire Ma Town, aside from the Tier 3 Peak Level Mine Defense Captain and the mysterious Lord of Ma City,
no one could withstand this massive strike!
As the other Mine Defense Team powerhousesughter intensified and they already began to imagine how they would abuse this group of fools,
A Dragon Roar rang out, apanied by a dazzling sh of light.
The fast-approaching fierce-looking man, along with his long spear, was transformed into a cloud of bloody mist and directly severed in two by a silver trajectory.
At the same time, a tall and burly figure stood in front of Leo Ray. Naturally, it was Taylor.
The moment he settled down, the brilliantly colorful Dragon-ying Giant Sword was already withdrawn into the Space Ring by Taylor.
What just happened?!
How could this be?!
How did the Vice Team Leader die?!
After a brief stupor, the remaining Mine Defense Team powerhouses couldnt hide their terror.
They hadnt even seen Taylor make a move!
And the only ones capable of doing this were naturally Tier 4 Level powerhouses. As these powerhouses panicked,
two remarkable auras surged from behind in the hall.
Not only have you barged into my Mine Defense Teams headquarters, but youve also killed my Vice Team Leader. Today, youre all going to die here!
Hehehe, it just so happens that I havent seen blood in a while. Let me, a Tier 4 Powerhouse, go on a killing spree.
Hearing that, the frightened powerhouses from before couldnt contain their excitement any more.
Its the Team Leaders voice! The Team Leader has returned with the Tier 4 senior!
Haha, brothers, lets follow the Team Leader and kill those fools who dont know the meaning of death!
Thats right, whats so great about a Tier 4 powerhouse? We have one here too!
Feeling the murderous presences of the two approaching figures, Leo Rays face remained calm as he nodded at Taylor once more.
In an instant, the burly man before him turned into a meteor and charged straight ahead.
The next second, apanied by another lethal, silver trajectory sh, the Tier 4 powerhouse and Mine Defense Team Captain who had yet to be fully seen were unsurprisingly cut in half.
Alright, lets start cleaning up.
ncing at the opposing powerhouses who had once again fallen into a state of stupidity, Leo Ray couldnt be bothered to argue with them any more and turned to leave the hall.
Meanwhile, the subordinates who had been waiting for the opportunity instantly unleashed havoc in the ce.

A momentter, the main subordinates came back to the outside of the hall, standing in front of Leo Ray, who was looking up at the white snow mountain.
Reporting to Lord, the headquarters of the mine defense team has beenpletely cleaned up. Currently, Nathan Howard is leading the Ma Town defense army to carry out the final cleanup work.
Seeing the burly Taylor step forward, he said with a fist: In addition, on thest arriving Tier 4 powerhouse, I also found this.
Immediately, Taylor bent down respectfully and handed a somewhat mottled silver ring to Leo Ray.
Oh? It seems that the real purpose of the unseen Tier 4 powerhouse was to send us gifts from thousands of miles away.
Slowly withdrawing his gaze, Leo Ray took the ring entwined with a trace of spatial energy fluctuation, raised his eyebrows and opened the attribute column.
[Name: Dawns Eye] (Unbound)
[Tier: 2?Fine (Green)]
[Defense Strength: None]
[Additional Effect: Space on Finger?Mortal Can store any object without a life aura and take it out at will, the space capacity is 20 cubic meters]
[Note: This is a storage ring of an unknown race. Long years have caused it to lose its original brilliance and some functions have been lost.
However, as a storage ring, it still fulfills its original function.]
It seems to be a storage ring of a race other than humans.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help showing a thoughtful look and muttered, Forget it, letsplete the binding first and see what kind of spoils are inside.
Without hesitation, he started to bind with blood.
Suddenly, the familiar prompt sounded in Leo Rays ear.
[Congrattions, binding sessful! You have be the new owner of Meteor Eye (Tier 2?Fine)]!
Next, after checking, Leo Ray found that there were more than 200,000 Gold Dragons, a Tier 2 Magic Potion Form, three Tier 2 Magic Pills, and some alchemy materials for making magic potions.
Adding to the previous amount, has the number of Gold Dragons on my body broken through one million again?
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray continued to check.
He found that the magic potion form was a form for an Energy Condensing Pill, which had the same effect as the Qi Condensing Pill and also permanently increased strength.
As for the three Tier 2 magic drugs, they were all treatment type.
He started to upgrade directly.
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Potion Form: Energy Condensing Pill has been upgraded to Tier 3 Magic Potion Form: Double Moon Energy Condensing Pill]!
[Congrattions, your ]
Sessfully upgraded to a Tier 3 magic potion form?
Hearing this, a trace of joy appeared on Leo Rays face, and he began to check.
From the attribute column, the effect of this double moon energy condensing pill was the same as the Rose Gathering Energy Pill that he currently had.
However,pared to the more versatile Tier 3 Rose Gathering Energy Pills for both physical and magical series, the Tier 3 Double Moon Energy Condensing Pill is more significant in improving and adapting the effects for physical powerhouses.
This is a good thing!
Overjoyed, Leo Ray excitedly rubbed his hands and continued to ponder.
The most crucial point is that he had already obtained the form for the Tier 3 Star Pattern Magic Energy Pill before this.
Although this magic drug has the same effect as the Rose Gathering Energy Pill and Double Moon Energy Condensing Pill, which are both permanently increasing in strength, it is more effective for magic powerhouses.
And this newly acquired Double Moon Energy Condensing Pill form will undoubtedly make up for his shorings in the physical aspect and the improvement of strength-type magic drugs.
Thus, he already possesses both physical and magical series, two exclusive Tier 3 magic potion forms for permanently increasing strength!
In this case, first gather the materials for alchemy, and then upgrade to Tier 4 magic drugs; then, as long as you have targeted refining.
The hope of the Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses under mymand, whether physical or magical, breaking through shackles and stepping into the Tier 4 level will naturally be greater!
While agitated, Leo Ray noticed that the three Tier 2 healing magic drugs had been upgraded to 200 Tier 2 magic drugs and one Tier 3 magic drug.
Next, after transferring the upgraded items and the remaining useful alchemy materials to the Space Bracelet,
Leo Ray emptied the other clutter in the ring and immediately started upgrading the storage ring itself.
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 essory: Dawns Eye has been upgraded to Tier 4 essory: Dawns Eye]!
Wow, it went straight to Tier 4? However, the name has not changed; it seems that, like the previous Space Bracelet, after upgrading, this storage ring has returned to its peak state.
With Leo Rays mind, the upgraded storage ring reappeared in his palm.
In the brilliant sunlight, Leo Ray noticed that the shape of the ring had not changed at all.
Only the mottled surface had regained its new luster, as if it had just been made.
Is that so?
Seeing this, Leo Ray reopened the attribute column of the ring.
[Name: Dawns Eye]
[Tier: 4?Epic (Purple)]
[Defense Strength: None]

[Additional Effect 1: Space on Finger ? Absolute Can store and retrieve any non-living object at will, with a storage capacity of 100 cubic meters]
[Additional Effect 2: Dawns Eye Improves the wearers perception of invisibility and stealth within a five-meter range]
[Note: Dawn ising, darkness is retreating, and a new light is descending to show us a new path.
This is a storage ring belonging to an unknown race. It is currently in its best condition, and if worn, it may bring unexpected gains.]
A 100 cubic meter storage space is not very attractive to me, but the newly added second additional effect is quite practical.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction as he put the ring on.
In doing so, he now had a stronger sense and resistance to experts capable of stealth and invisibility!
Good, good, coupled with the Golden Pupil (increasing resistance to illusions) previously blessed by Penelope, I am now basically carrying a mini Eye of Insight barrier.
Just as Leo Ray was delightedly thinking about this, the crisp collision of armor sounded not far away.
Nathan Howard, apanied by severalmandants of the Ma Town Defense Army, quickly approached and said, Reporting to you, sir, the headquarters of the Mine Defense Team are nowpletely under our control!
Very well.
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly nodded.
Before arriving at the headquarters of the Mine Defense Team, the group had already wiped out all their opponents in the mining area and at the city gate with the help of Nathan.
By this point, more than half of the two elite Tier 2 Mine Defense Team Middle Teams, the minions of the Lord of Ma City, had been cleared out.
Sir, may we go to the dungeon to rescue the imprisoned city officials before heading to the City Lord Mansion? My tribesman, who was recently the deputy city lord, was imprisoned for advising the City Lord, and his life is currently unknown.
Then, Nathan saluted with a worried and anxious voice that once again reached Leo Rays ears.
Thats fine. With the cooperation of the officials, we can quickly restore the citys original functions.
Leo Ray slightly nodded and made a gesture to his eager subordinates to set off.
Drip, drip.
In a dark and damp dungeon, a thin male figure huddled in a corner alone.
Surrounding him, groundwater seeped through the moss-covered, low brick ceiling, forming murky puddles mixed with dirt and bloodstains.
Looking at the puddles on the ground, the thin man sighed softly, his eyes filled with helplessness and mncholy.
At this moment, a mine defense team member holding a torch approached slowly.
Apanied by the sound of a key unlocking, the cell door was opened.
How do you like our hospitality, Mr. Ned? Are you ready to ept todays punishment?
A sarcastic voice rang out, and the defense team member with a whip in his hand sneered.
You bastards!
On the other side, the thin man raised his head, revealing a pale and haggard face with a beard and a bruised body.
Due to the dazzling mes of the torch, the weak man blinked several times before gradually adapting to the sudden brightness.
It seems that Mr. Ned has not received enough lessons.
Swinging the whip in his hand with a cracking sound, the grinning member of the defense team walked over and continued, What do you say? If you choose to join our side of the Mine Defense Team, you will be reborn.
In your dreams! I will never collude with you wicked and unscrupulous people!
Despite the weak mans extensive injuries, his eyes were still sharp, as he angrily said, I believe that one day, Ma Town will usher in a new light!
Hahaha, our dear Mr. Ned, still as naive as ever.
Under the flickering light of the fire, the defense team members face was full of shadows, and hisughter became more hideous.
He continued to mock, By whom? Relying on your cowardly Defense Armymander cousin Nathan? Let me tell you, his end is not far away! I believe it wont be long before this city ispletely in our hands!
At this point, the mine defense team member sneered, then coldly threatened, If you continue to be shortsighted, this daddy wont mind ending you personally!
Dont delude yourselves, you guys with bloodstained hands will eventually be punished by God!
The weak man stood up slowly against the wall, staring into the others eyes.
Divine punishment? Dont make meugh. Ive been running amok in Ma Town for years, and when has ite?
Hearing this, the mine defense team members dark face became even more arrogant, and he burst intoughter.
At that moment, a dazzling fatal trajectory shed by.
The defense team membersughter stopped abruptly as he fell to the ground with a look of horror.
On the other side, as Taylor put away the Dragon-ying Giant Sword, the dazzling Light Crystal Stone lit up.
Leo Ray stepped out of the light, looking at the corpse on the ground and said indifferently, Sorry, now hes here.
Cousin Ned, were here to save you!

Immediately, Nathan rushed over, picked up the key on the ground, and unlocked the chains wrapped around the emaciated man.
Cousin Nathan, who is this gentleman?
Seeing Leo Ray, who was surrounded by the main force subordinates with a mighty aura, Ned, the deputy of the Lord of Ma Town, asked with a face full of disbelief amidst his ecstasy.
Cousin Ned, let me exin
Nathan, themander of the Ma Town defense team, briefly described to Ned how Leo Ray and his party came to Ma Town.
So, the lord of Cyan Town is not only here to help the residents of Cyan Town but also to help us, the residents of Ma Town?
After a long pause,
Neds face suddenly showed an overjoyed expression, and he quickly knelt down on one knee to Leo Ray, saying, I am Ned, and I pay my respects to the Lord of Cyan Town! Thank you very much for saving me, otherwise, it wouldnt have been long before I would have died here.
Your Excellency Ned, there is no need for such formalities.
Leo Ray nodded slightly, looking at the scarred Ned, and then asked, How did you end up like this?
Ah, to be honest with you, I was just trying to help the residents of the city get some food, and thats when I angered our City Lord.
Ned shook his head helplessly and sighed deeply first,
Then he replied, In recent years, our Lord of Ma City has be more and more entric, especially this year, when he has even stopped appearing in public and only talks to us subordinates through a giant screen.
Oh? Something like that happened?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray helped the other party up and then asked, Do you know why the Lord of Ma City no longer shows his face?
I dont know,
Ned shook his head slightly, and due to his injuries, his expression was a bit painful. He continued, But whats certain is that the City Lords voice hasnt changed, he just doesnt want to show his true face.
I see. It seems that we have to uncover the truth ourselves.
Contemting for a moment, Leo Ray looked at Ned, who had injuries all over his body, and with a thought,
A Tier 3 Light Healing Magic Scroll, obtained from the Elf Ruins, suddenly appeared in his hand.
Immediately, a holy golden light lit up, illuminating the entire dark cell as if it were daytime.
Arge number of energy particles filled with the power of healing attached themselves to Neds bloodied body.
In an instant, the inmed wounds on Neds body began to heal at a visible speed. Some evenpletely returned to normal, leaving no trace whatsoever.
Is this a healing magic scroll?! It looks like its not of a low rank
Feeling the warmth that continued to flood in, the disbelief on Neds face was evident.
He had never expected that the Lord of Cyan Town would use such a precious item on him, an outer city official he had just met for the first time!
At this moment,pared to the ruthless Lord of Ma City who had imprisoned him here,
Neds mind was filled with thoughts, and his body began to tremble slightly from excitement.
No matter what, the dark night that had enveloped Ma Town for a long time had finally weed the dawn!
Lord, all the officials of Ma Town have been rescued,
After a while, Lindas energetic voice came through the mind talk.
Alright, since thats the case, we should go and meet the Lord of Ma City.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Wait, Sir!
Just then, both Nathan and Ned spoke almost simultaneously.
Turning around, Leo Ray noticed,
that the two brothers were kneeling on one knee again, lowering their heads deeply.
Sir, we swear to serve you with our lives! Please take control of Ma Town and save us!
Immediately after, the unwavering voices of the two reached Leo Rays ears once more.
It seems that its time to tell you my true identity.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly,
Then, after revealing his identity as the Otherworldly Lord to Nathan and Ned and consuming a Tier 2 Recruitment Order and a Tier 3 Recruitment Order,
The familiar prompt soon sounded in Leo Rays ear.
[Congrattions, Tier 3 Two-Star Shield Breaker Warrior Nathan Smith has signed the Master-Servant Contract with you and be your new subordinate!]
[Congrattions, Tier 2 Three-star Earth and Rock Mage Ned Smith has signed the Master-Servant Contract with you and be your new subordinate!]
After helping the two men up one by one, Leo Rays face couldnt help but reveal a smile.
Originally, his main purpose for his trip was to bring back Celes Reisss family and the residents of Cyan Town, and to gather some information about Ma Town just in case.
But looking at it now, this entire Ma Town will soon be under his rule.
Although this is a devastated city, I believe that with my strong financial support, it will soon regain its past vitality.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray immediately opened the attribute column of the two men in front of him.
[Name: Nathan]
[upation: Shield Breaker Warrior]
[Rank: Tier 3 Two-Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Heavy Hammer st Active (Physical Single Target Attack, with Shield Breaking effect)]
[Skill 2: Whirlwind Swing Active (Small Range Physical Attack)]
[Skill 3: Warhammer Proficiency Passive (Increases damage slightly when using a warhammer)]
[Name: Ned]
[upation: Earth and Rock Mage]
[Rank: Tier 2 Three-star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Earth Spike Active (Earth Attribute Magic Single Target Attack, with Piercing effect)]
[Skill 2: Earthen Fortress Active (Earth Attribute Defensive Magic, with outstanding effect on muddy terrain)]
[Skill 3: Earth Attribute Magic Proficiency Passive (Increases damage slightly when using Earth Attribute Magic)]
Closing the attribute column of the two men, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, Well, lets go and see what kind of secrets the Lord of Ma City, who would rather sacrifice the entire city and mine recklessly, is hiding.
As youmand, Lord!
Upon hearing this, all the old and new subordinates bowed to Leo Ray with their fists sped.

Under the two scorching suns in the sky, beneath the white snow-covered peaks of the Hundred Ranges, there sits a town that leans against the mountains and is yet full of scars.
This town is, of course, Ma Town, where Lei Xiao and the others are currently located.
At the depths of Ma Town exists a massive mine.
And this is where the Lord of Ma City resides.
In the sunlight, two small fortresses standing about five or six meters high could be seen on both sides of the mine entrance.
In the middle is a wide, several-meter-deep trench, with a huge metal drawbridge separating the entrance to the mine from the outside world.
A few years ago, they moved out of the City Lord Mansion in the city center and relocated here?
Looking at the alternative City Lord Mansion in front of him, resembling a mountain fortress, Lei Xiaos eyes narrowed, and he muttered to himself, The final secret of this city is about to be revealed in front of me.
Just as Lei Xiao thought of this.
Wh wh.
A clear sound of iron chains rubbing against each other emerged, and the giant drawbridge in front of them began to slowly descend.
Boom.
With a muffled sound, the giant drawbridgended on the ground, and the road to the City Lord Mansion was revealed amid the rising dust.
Reporting to Lord, thest few mine defense squadrons stationed in the City Lord Mansion have also been cleared.
Immediately after, Taylors burly figure appeared before Leo Ray with a sudden sh.
Is this thest part?
Upon hearing this, and receiving Taylors affirmative response, Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction.
At this point, the two mine defense teams, who had run rampant for many years, werepletely wiped out from Ma Town by them.
A momentter, the brothers Nathaniel and Ned arrived at Lei Xiaos side.
Lord, aside from this mine City Lord Mansion, the entire Ma Town is now entirely in our hands!
Seeing Nathaniel, who was now themander of the Ma Town Defense Army, with a face full of excitement, he bowed and said.
Lord, all the residents of the city have been temporarily evacuated from the mining area, and as ordered by Lord, therge amount of food and supplies obtained from the mine defense teams headquarters have been distributed methodically to the residents of Ma Town.
Ned, who serves as the deputymander, also stepped forwards with a simrly delighted expression, bowing and saying, In addition, the residents who moved from Cyan Town have also received enough food and supplies and are preparing to move back to Cyan Town.
Very good, distribute whatever we have, and Ill acquire more from other citiester.
Lei Xiao nodded slightly in response.
From the briefing by Ned, deputy city lord, Lei Xiao learned that in addition to the currentlyrge-scale zing Crystal mining, Ma Town had discovered several other potential mine sites over these years.
However, due to the Lord of Ma Citys obsession with zing Crystals, those possible mine sites had not been thoroughly investigated.
From this, it could be seen that this mining town undoubtedly holds massive potential for further exploitation.
For now, restore the normal operation of the town and resume orderly mining. With my strong financial support, this will be effortless. Perhaps those suspected mine sites will bring me more surprises.
Lei Xiao pondered to himself at this moment, After all,pared to malnourished and spiritless residents, residents with abundant energy would have much higher mining efficiency.
Taking a deep breath of the damp airing from the entrance of the mine, Lei Xiao continued to think, All in all, this is necessary in terms of future development or other aspects. To achieve this goal, I just need to spend a lot of Gold Dragons.
And thats exactly what I have most of, having Linda sell a few Tier 3 Magic Medicines or Tier 4 Equipmentter would be enough to turn this devastated city into a bustling mining city on par with the Golin City.
At this thought, Lei Xiao revived his spirits.
Then, addressing his various subordinates around him, he said, Alright, everyone, sharpen your spirits. Lets take a good look at what kind of purpose lies behind the Lord of Ma Citys reckless actions.
At yourmand! My Lord!
On the other side, the subordinates bowed and saluted, sping their fists in unison.
Next, apanied by his subordinates, Lei Xiao entered the vast mine by following the straight minecart track extending from the entrance. He noticed a dim illumination from tiny Light Crystal Stones embedded in the walls every few meters.
At a nce, the scattered lights inside the tunnel resembled the stars in the night sky.
However, under the night vision effects of Star Pupil, there was no hindrance to Lei Xiao.
Moreover, the subordinates had already taken out Light Crystal Stones, illuminating the surroundings as if it were daytime.
My Lord, the hall ahead is where we will meet with the Lord of Ma City.
After walking seven or eight minutes, Nathaniel, who was leading the way, turned around, and respectfully addressed Lei Xiao.
Very good.
Gazing at the surroundings that were almost indistinguishable from ordinary mines, Lei Xiao hinted for his subordinates to be ready for battle while responding.
Thus, they continued forward, following the minecart tracks

Trantor: 549690339
It wasnt long before Leo Ray and his ninerades, along with Nathan Howard and Ned Nathan, arrived at another dark hall.
Lord, this is where we usually meet the Lord of Ma City, Ned Nathan said to Leo Ray.
From his tone, one could hear a hint of trembling, seemingly still frightened by the cold-blooded Lord of Ma City.
I understand.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray surveyed the area, noticing that it was about 200 square meters in size. There were more than a dozen towering stone pirs ced in order, and a protruding tform at the end.
A giant screen stretched between the high tform and the bottom.
The other ces were piled with mountains of red crystals.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stones, these crystal-clear red clusters emitted a bright glow, looking quite eye-catching.
After checking their properties, Leo Ray found that these deep red semi-transparent crystals were the so-called zing Crystals, a type of Level 3 rare resource.
My Lord, I cant feel anyone elses presence here. It seems the Lord of Ma City isnt here, said Taylor, the greatsword-wielding man, with a stern expression.
At this moment, the dazzling Dragon-ying Greatsword shone brightly in the dark environment.
Meanwhile, the other subordinates had already drawn their weapons.
Various Tier-4 divine weapons filled the hall with brilliant colors, leaving Nathan Howard and Ned Nathan dumbfounded.
Dont worry, well get you two your weapons too. We have plenty of those, Leo Ray said with a smile.
Following this, with excited looks from Nathan and Ned, Leo Ray walked around the giant screen and noticed a throne located on the high tform. There wasnt anything else worth noticing.
Trying to hide his true face with a screen, yet his voice remains the same. Living in a mine and gathering all the citys mined stones here what is this guy up to? Leo Ray pondered to himself.
At that moment, a shimmering, heavy-duty metallic door appeared behind the throne.
My Lord, its a fire attribute magic restriction, Scarlett said, patting her chest confidently. Leave it to me!
After ascending to the Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse level, the magical aura she emitted had be much more intense than before.
During the purge of the Mine Defense Team, she followed closely behind Taylor, throwing fireballs and fire arrows, seemingly thrilled with her enhanced power.
Even once, a searing fireball she conjured almost burned Mason Banks eyebrows, a true close shave.
Considering this, Leo Ray instructed, The Lord of Ma City must be behind this door. Be careful.
Yes, my Lord!
Scarlett grinned at Leo Ray, stepped forward, and began waving her highly colorful Tier 4 Short Staff.
The next moment, a cryptic chant ensued, and a small me appeared on the shimmering door.
However, the me was extinguished instantly by the doors restrictive power before it could spread, producing crackling sounds and a wisp of misty green smoke.
Huh?
Scarlett looked puzzled when her spell failed. This is clearly a Tier 3 magic restriction. Why cant I undo it?
After a few more attempts with the same oue, she furrowed her brows, and it seemed like she figured something out.
My Lord, it seems the powerhouse who set this Tier 3 magic restriction must have reached the Tier 4 Level. However, they have not yet mastered the techniques to set a Tier 4 magic restriction, hence the difficulty in unlocking it.
But, theres a limit to Tier 3 magic restrictions. Ill definitely be able to break through once I exploit that! she assured.
With that, a round red magic pill appeared in her handthe zing me Pills, which Leo Ray had obtained at the auction and could enhance fire spells power.
I see.
Leo Ray nodded, showing a thoughtful expression.
Beforehand, through Nathan and Neds reports, he had learned that the Lord of Ma City was a Fire Mage just like Scarlett.
However, his strength at that time was only at the Tier 3, 5-star senior level.
Under normal circumstances, within just a few years, an ordinary Tier 3 powerhouse could only raise their strength by one or two stars with nonstop cultivation.
With the Lord of Ma Citys resources, it was highly unlikely that he could refine multiple Tier 3 power-enhancing magic medicines worth millions of gold dragons, let alone the Tier 4 magic pills needed for a breakthrough.
Thinking about it this way, if the enemys strength has truly broken through to Tier 4, it must be rted to his unusual behavior over the past few years!

Chapter 368: Chapter 321: The Appearance of the Ma City Lord5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
Realizing this, Leo Ray nodded at Scarlett, agreeing to her request to use the Magic Medicine.
On the other side, Scarlett took the zing me Pill with her head tilted back.
In a moments time, an impressive magical power surged from her slender body.
Then, as Scarletts lips parted slightly and she began to recite the spell again,
this time, the small mes that emerged from the colorful metal door did not go out. Instead, with a whoosh, they instantly spread across the entire door like a wildfire.
In an instant, apanied by the crisp sound of chains breaking,
the tightly closed door opened in response.
As the door opened, a wave of heat immediately swept out from within, raising the temperature in the hall by more than ten degrees instantly.
Who dares to disturb my solitary cultivation?!
Immediately afterward, an enraged voice suddenly reached everyones ears.
At the same time, an incredibly powerful aura apanied the voice and the heatwave, rippling through the air.
My Lord, its the voice of the Lord of Ma City!
Hearing this, Ned Nathan, whose strength was only at the Second Tier, couldnt help but take a few steps back and exim to Leo Ray.
My Lord, there is only one person ahead, and his strength is at the level of a Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse.
The rough voice sounded as Taylor, leaning on his giant sword, stood in front of the door and spoke to Leo Ray.
A Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse? That means he must be at least at the Five-Star Tier 4 level. It seems like this guy is really strange!
Gazing at the hallway inside the door, which was filled with red crystals, Leo Rays eyes narrowed as he continued to observe, with Taylor and his other subordinates protecting him from behind.
In the blink of an eye, a figure exuding a powerful aura appeared at the straight end of the hallway inside the door.
Right in front, when Leo Ray and his team saw the mans face, they couldnt help but look astonished.
At the end of the hallway, a tall middle-aged man over two meters tall stood chillingly.
Upon close observation, there was nothing particrly remarkable about this persons face; it was just heavily surrounded by a fierce and evil aura.
However, the surface of his body was extremely strange, with many areas of his exposed, muscr body already crystallized, emitting a bizarre red glow.
At first nce, he looked like a moving red crystal giant.
Furthermore, Leo Ray clearly noticed that,
these fiery red crystals hadpletely merged with his flesh and blood, which gave people an inexplicable sense of horror at a nce.
Is this a Parasitic Blood Crystal?!
Seeing this scene, Scarlett, who was standing next to Leo Ray, couldnt help but exim.
Upon hearing her words, Leo Ray nodded slightly as Rnddel appeared in his hand, gesturing for Scarlett to continue.
My Lord, Parasitic Blood Crystals are extremely rare. Even the Grand Attic Library of the Magic Tower, which records everything, only has a few mentions of them.
Looking at the strange powerhouse slowly approaching, Scarlett couldnt help but swallow hard.
Then she said, This Parasitic Blood Crystal is actually not a mineral or crystal, but a unique life form. It is said that its ancestors did not originate from this world. Once merged with it, you can gain unique cultivation methods and quickly enhance your strength.
However, its final oue is beingpletely devoured, turning into a terrifying and uncontroble being that only knows how to kill.Taking a deep breath, Scarletts little face showed solemnity.
She continued, Fortunately, this parasitic blood crystal cannot forcibly attach itself to a host without meeting a prerequisite condition C it needs the hosts consent to sessfullyplete the parasitism. Therefore, it usually only parasitizes low-intelligence demon beasts.
Its rare for it to infest advanced races like humans or elves unless the host has an extreme obsession with gaining power, even at the cost of their life.
I see.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, both surprised and intrigued by this oddity, and asked, So, their unique cultivation method is rted to these zing Crystals?
Scarlett replied, My Lord, although the book doesnt explicitly record it, it should be the case. The zing Crystals usually contain intense fire-element magic power, which perfectly matches their attributes. It seems that their rapid progress from a Tier 3 Senior Powerhouse to a Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse within a few years is due to these zing Crystals.
This girl knows quite a bit.
On the other side, a gloomy voice spoke up, Indeed, I made a deal with the parasitic blood crystals and used the zing Crystals for my cultivation.
At this point, he lifted his sturdy arm, and the eerie red hue on his body brightened slightly, sneering, I must say, the sensation of power constantly surging within me is simply exhrating, hahaha!
City Lord, over the years, have you pursued power that doesnt belong to you, disregarding the lives of the inhabitants of Ma Town, and carried out such heinous acts?
Ned Nathan stepped forward, his voice trembling, and indignantly inquired.
Ned? And Nathan
The icy gazended on them, and the Lord of Ma Citys twisted face was filled with menace, So youre the ones who brought these strangers here.
Immediately afterward, theugh of a madman burst forth from him, Thats right! What do their insignificant lives have to do with me?
It wont be long before I can step into the realm of a Tier 5 Powerhouse! Ill be the pinnacle of this countrys battle prowess, hahaha!
At that moment, a bone-chilling killing intent erupted from the Lord of Ma City. He coldly proimed, But, before that, all of you must die here!
As he spoke, the tremendous magic power began to gather frantically around him, causing the air temperature to rise sharply, as if a torrential ze was about to burst forth.
Has the power that doesnt belong to himpletely clouded his judgment? It seems the mystery has been unraveled.
On the other side, Leo Ray helplessly shook his head and said to the tall man beside him, Taylor, end this ridiculous farce.
Yes, My Lord!
The burly voice resounded, and Taylors figure moved, the Dragon Roar of his giant sword sounding out as he charged toward the frenzied City Lord of Ma Town, silver trails shing dangerously.
In an instant, a deadly silver trajectory shed.
Apanied by the sound of shattered crystals, the City Lord of Ma Town was transformed into a dense blood fog, which thenpletely dispersed into silence.
As the Lord of Ma Citys lifeforce vanished, the eerie red glow on his body also dimmed until it finally disappeared into the air.
My Lord, the parasitic blood crystal and the host share a symbiotic rtionship. When the host dies, it will automatically vanish. You need not worry.
Then, Scarletts clear voice entered Leo Rays ears.
Very well.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
With this, the crisis in Ma Town waspletely and impably resolved by their party.
As they spoke, a radiant object suddenly appeared above the shattered body of the City Lord, captured the attention of everyone present.

Chapter 369: Chapter 322: The Second Fourth-Order Powerhouse and the Third Town5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
Looking closely, the object floating in mid-air was about the size of a palm, shaped like a regr sphere, radiating dazzling brilliance of mes.
It looked as if it were burning, instantly illuminating the originally dark corridor like daylight.
Moreover, it was mixed with strands of white and purple mes, presenting a magnificent sight that kept the viewers eyes busy.
At this moment, Leo Ray could clearly feel that this spherical object seemed to contain an extremely tremendous amount of energy.
Is this the Fire Attribute Magic Energy Origin?!
On the other side, Scarlett blinked her signature big eyes and eximed.
Magic Energy Origin?
While signaling Taylor to retrieve that object, Leo Ray could not help but reveal a curious expression.
Lord, the so-called Magic Energy Origin is a highly concentrated magic power aggregate, which can only be naturally formed under extremely harsh conditions over tens of thousands of years. Its effect is almost the same as that of a permanent power enhancement Magic Medicine!
Looking at the fiery red spherical object in Taylors hand, Scarlett couldnt help but swallow her saliva, excitedly continuing, It seems that the Lord of Ma City was in a hurry to seed.
This resulted in the magic power contained in the zing Crystal not being fully refined each time, and over time, this formed the extremely rare Fire Attribute Magic Energy Source!
Just as the two were discussing, Taylor had already presented the dazzling pearl to Leo Ray.
Not bad, this can be considered an unexpected gain.
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Leo Ray opened the attribute column of this colorful pearl.
[Name: Magic Energy Origin]
[Tier: 3]
[Attribute: Fire]
[Effect: Enhance magic power, increase strength]
[Note: A collection of pure magic power, containing a powerful amount of energy, with the Fire attribute. Only magic powerhouses proficient in using Fire attribute spells can refine and integrate it with their power permanently.]
Closing the attribute column, Leo Ray looked at the excited expression on Scarletts face and couldnt help but smile helplessly.
It had to be said that this Fire Attribute Magic Energy Origin was tailor-made for her.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, indicating that the red pearl should be handed over to Scarlett to use.
A million thanks to the Lord!
On the other hand, after her excitement had passed, Scarlett closed her eyes to concentrate and sense the pearl for a moment. Then, a disappointed expression appeared on her face.
Pouting, she said, Lord, unfortunately the Fire Attribute Magic Energy Source contained in this pearl is not very abundant. Otherwise, maybe this subordinate could attempt to break into the Tier 4 Powerhouse level.
I see.
Patting Scarletts head, Leo Ray took the fiery red pearl and put it into his Space Bracelet while giving a faint smile, Maybe I can find a solution.
Without any hesitation, he began to upgrade.
The next second, a familiar and pleasant prompt sounded as expected.
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Magic Energy Origin: Fire Attribute has been upgraded to Tier 4 Magic Energy Origin: Fire Attribute!]
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Next, under Scarletts expectant gaze,
Leo Rays heart moved slightly, and the pearl that seemed to be burning furiously appeared in his palm again.
In an instant, the fiery red glow flourished, reflecting the surrounding with brilliance.
At the same time, the rich magic power was surging in the air.
At this moment, both the dazzling red light emitted by the pearls surface and the energy contained within it were obviously much higher than before!
On the other side, looking at the colorful red pearl in Leo Rays hand, everyone present could not help but exim in amazement.
Scarletts face was even more full of surprise and joy as she excitedly flew into the air.
With the help of the Magic Energy Origin, Scarlett, who had already reached the Tier 3 Peak Level, undoubtedly had the capital to challenge Tier 4 Powerhouses!
Immediately, Leo Ray handed the red pearl, shing with dazzling red light, to the girl in front of him.
A million thanks to the Lord!
Taking the red pearl handed over by Leo Ray, Scarlett was so excited that she could hardly contain herself.
She then asked Leo Ray, Lord, this ce has abundant Fire Attribute magic energy, which makes it an ideal ce for advancement. May I try to break through to the Tier 4 Powerhouse here?
That works.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray had a thought and a Magic Medicine emitting a rich exotic fragrance appeared in his palm.
This Magic Pill was his current highest-quality Tier 4 Magic Medicine: Sacred Blessing Pill, which had the miraculous effect of nourishing and strengthening ones meridians and stabilizing the mind.
It could help users have a greater grasp of sess during their advancement.
The difficulty of breaking through to a Tier 4 Powerhouse was much higher than breaking through to a Tier 3 Powerhouse. If they failed, it would be somewhat counterproductive.
At present, there were still 99 Sacred Blessing Pills left, enough to use for a long time.
Once again, Leo Ray handed the Magic Medicine to Scarlett and smiled lightly, When were done cleaning up the City Lord Mansion in the cave, find a ce to start your advancement. This Magic Pill will help you break through your limitations and reach the Tier 4 Level.

Trantor: 549690339
Yes, Lord!
Unable to contain her excitement after receiving the smooth, shiny Magic Medicine, Scarlett could only kneel down on one knee, bowing her head deeply before Leo Ray.
Next, under Leo Rays guidance,
The powerful individuals entered the gates one after another to explore the remaining areas of the City Lord Mansion in the cave.
After conducting thorough investigations, Leo Ray noticed,
At the end of the straight corridor, there were several spacious halls covering hundreds of square meters.
Inside, they were almost filled with zing Crystals that had lost their red glow after being drained of energy.
These vast amounts of discarded ores were undoubtedly the product of the Lord of Ma Citys years of cultivation.
Upon inspection, Leo Ray found that,
These gray and dim zing Crystals that had lost their luster had lost their intended functions.
However, 20,000 units of unprocessed and intact zing Crystals were still concentrated together by Leo Ray to be taken back to the Territory when he left.
For now, although I dont know what role these zing Crystals can y, they are still better than nothing and are indeed a rare Tier 3 resource.
With this thought in mind, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction.
Next, he returned to the dark hall and sat on the throne, where he began to arrange the tasks ahead.
After all, at this stage, this city was still in need of development, and many areas required Leo Rays decision-making.
At this time, standing to the left of him were Taylor, Abigail, Amelia, Linda, Mason Banks, and Rhizoma Drynariae in that order.
On his right were Nathan Howard, themander of the Ma Town Defense Army, and Ned Nathan, the deputy for the Lord of Ma City.
As for Scarlett, she had gone to another hall filled with intact zing Crystals to attempt the breakthrough to Tier 4 Powerhouses while the sharp-sensed Bianca White was protecting her on the side.
Nathan, Ned, and Rhizoma Drynariae,e here.
Nodding slightly at the three of them, Leo Ray spoke first.
As the three of them stepped forward respectfully, Leo Rays heart moved, and three brand-new Storage Rings appeared in his palm.
After distributing the rings to the three of them, Leo Ray also distributed 15 Tier 1 Healing Potions and 15 Tier 2 Healing Potions to each of them, instructing them to use them when needed.
Thank you very much, Lord!
Having received the Storage Rings and numerous Magic Medicines, which could only be afforded by high-ranking nobles,
The faces of the three men showed unrestrained joy as they all bowed their heads to Leo Ray.
Without a doubt, the total value of these items possessed by each of them easily exceeded one million Gold Dragons!
Keep in mind that this amount was equivalent to the total ie of an ordinary town or small city for several years!
Such immense wealth was beyond their reach, even if they spent their entire lives pursuing it!
Dont hurry to thank me; theres more.
With a faint smile, Leo Rays heart moved again, and a Tier 4 Warhammer and a Tier 4 Magic Wand appeared in front of the crowd.
For a moment, the intense radiance emitted from the two weapons was immediately caught in the eyes of everyone present.
These two weapons, one from the collection of the former Lord of Cyan City and the other from the Elf Relics near Penelopes Territory.
Nathan and Ned, take them. I hope you both work diligently together to govern Ma Town while Im not around.
Saying this, Leo Ray handed the weapons to his two new subordinates.
Thank you very much, Lord! I swear to devote everything to you!
Taking the weapons offered to them by Leo Ray, the two were trembling slightly, seemingly too excited to speak.
I told you before, we have plenty of these things.
With a faint smile, without waiting for their reaction, Leo Rays palm shed for the third time, revealing more valuable items.
This time, it was a few small brocade boxes.
Therere three Tier 3 Rose Gathering Energy Pills here, one for each of you, and another five Tier 2 Qi Condensing Pills, enough for Ned to advance to Tier 2 Nine-Star and then attempt to break through to Tier 3. Remember to prioritize cultivation while governing.
Once again distributing the Magic Medicines, Leo Ray spoke up.
Thank you, Lord!
On the other side, the three men bowed their heads simultaneously, eximing in unison.
At this point, Rhizoma Drynariaes expression was still somewhat normal.
As for Nathan and Ned, they had never seen such extravagant behavior before and were in aplete state of shock.
At this moment, Leo Ray, in their eyes, was akin to a mighty dragon soaring in the sky, majestic and awe-inspiring.
There was no doubt that, with such substantial financial resources, only the Coldme Royal Family and a few aristocratic families at the top of the power pyramid in this kingdom could rival him!
Alright, now lets get down to business.
Immediately afterward, Leo Ray gestured for the three of them to return to their subordinate positions in the lineup, and after a slight pause, he continued, First of all, since the situation within Coldme Royal City is not yet clear, it would be unwise for me, an Otherworldly Lord, to be the visible master of Ma Town in order to keep a low profile and conceal our strength.
At this moment, Leo Ray was fully aware,
Currently, the situation between Coldme and Saint Night was filled with intrigue and hidden threats.
If he drew too much attention,
The ensuing princes struggle for power, focusing entirely on him, would make things very difficult.

After all, the Coldme Royal Family alone has two Tier 5 Powerhouses and the enormous strength of eight legions of soldiers.
Moreover, there is a mysterious organization of even more unfathomable power, constantly stirring in the shadows.
It should be known, ording to the information he had obtained earlier, this mysterious organization is ruthless and will spare nothing to eliminate any potential threat to their goals.
Thus, my current best strategy is naturally to keep a low profile while growing, and whenever possible, instigate conflict between these two powerful forces, just as I did at the Viennas City Auction.
At this moment, Leo Ray continued to ponder: Furthermore, if the territory is threatened, the defense army of Ma Town can appear as a surprise force, striking a heavy blow to the enemy. Of course, the same goes for Mn Town on the other side of Cyan Town.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray gathered his spirits, looked down at Nathan Howard and Ned Nathan seated below, and continued: In summary, at this stage, do not let it be known that the Lord of Ma City went mad and was killed by us.
In appearance, this person is still the ruler here, still living a secluded life in this mine lords mansion.
As for everything that happened today, it only needs to be stated that the two mine defense teams staged a rebellion and were ultimately wiped out by the joint efforts of me, the Lord of Cyan Town, and the Lord of Ma City, who happened to arrive.
By yourmand! My Lord!
At this time, Nathan Howard, themander of the defense army, stepped forward and bowed: My subordinate will arrange for a few of the most elite defense forces to be stationed here and reseal the ce.
My Lord, how should we exin the matter of mining?
On the other side, Ned Nathan, his face full of confusion, bowed and asked.
Its simple, naturally because my arrival as the Lord of Cyan Town changed the Lord of Ma Citys thoughts, and he agreed to aid and rebuild Ma Town in exchange for the right to mine the ore vein again.
Smiling faintly, Leo Ray immediately responded.
So thats it!
Hearing this, Ned Nathans eyes brightened and he suddenly understood: In this way, even though My Lord does not control Ma Town on the surface, Your presence here has be something like a savior!
Moreover, about the reconstruction of Ma Town, we must hurry up and get the city back to normal as soon as possible.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray then looked at the heroic female knight who was beside him and continued: Linda, the work of providing arge amount of Gold Dragon and supplies to Ma Town will be your responsibility. You can start by transferring resources from Cyan Towns City Lord Mansion.
Ill provide you with some high-tier equipment and magic medicer, and if theres not enough, use the Gold Dragon obtained from secret sales to fill the gap directly.
In summary, our goal is not to worry about the Gold Dragon, and to proceed as quickly as possible within a reasonable range since this is what I leastck.
By yourmand! My Lord!
Upon hearing this, Linda took a step forward, bowed, and saluted.
Alright, if there are any other matters, you can discuss and coordinate with each other.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray opened the now essible Attribute Column of Ma Town, and continued while observing the detailed information.
Thus, following Cyan Town and Mn Town, Ma Town has smoothly be Leo Rays third city under his domain.
This also means that Leo Ray now has a huge potential mining development base, as well as two teams ofplete defense army soldiers.
Not bad, not bad, with this, my strength has once again been greatly improved!
Delighted, Leo Ray was still pondering in his heart: Right, these defense forces of Ma Town are all equipped with Tier 1 equipment, and most of them are in disrepair.
Ill have to outfit them entirely with brand-new Tier 2 equipmentter on, with this, the strength of this force will undoubtedly be further enhanced
As Leo Ray was thinking this.At the same time, the metal door behind the throne suddenly opened.
Immediately after, an imposing momentum surged through the air.
Appearing before everyone was none other than Scarlett and Bianca White.
Lord! This subordinate has broken through her shackles and sessfully advanced to the level of a Tier 4 Powerhouse!
Scarletts face was filled with excitement as she eagerly ran up to Leo Ray, her face beaming with joy.
It seems like things went quite smoothly.
Feeling the powerful aura of Scarlett that had grown several times stronger, Leo Ray slightly nodded, his face showing a hint of happiness.
In fairpetition and with the same equipment rank,
A senior powerhouse of Tier 4 can even hold their own against ten Tier 3 senior powerhouses!
This is the gap between Tier 3 and Tier 4 powerhouses!
Thinking of this, Leo Ray, who was ted, reopened Scarletts attribute column.
[Name: Scarlett]
[upation: Grand Fire Mage]
[Tier: Tier 4 One Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Fire Arrow Active (Fire attribute magic single-target attack, with burn and ssh effects)]
[Skill Two: Wings of Crimson Lotus Active (Fire attribute magic group attack, with burn and ssh effects)]
[Skill Three: Fire Dragon Descent Active (Fire attribute magic wide-area attack, with burn and ssh effects)]
[Skill Four: Fire Magic Mastery Passive (Significantly increases damage when using fire attribute magic)]
Wow, she not only upgraded from a Fire Mage to a Grand Fire Mage, but also gained a wider-ranged area skill?
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction as he saw this.
Speaking of which, after observing for a while, Leo Ray noticed that the skills in their subordinates attribute column were just their most representative and best skills.
For example, Scarlett can not only extinguish fires, remove and set up magic restrictions, but also throw fireballs with ease.
Sometimes, she would also cast other fire-based spells like firestorms and firewall.
Of course, the most critical thing is that her powerful skill as a glutton is not reflected in the attribute column.
At this moment, Leo Ray couldnt help but smile wryly and thought to himself secretly, That being said, who would have thought that this girl would be the second Tier 4 powerhouse in the territory after Gideon ck.
Realizing this, Leo Rays face was filled with joy as he reached out and patted Scarletts head.
With this, his overall strength had, evidently, received another significant jump!
Just as Leo Ray thought of this, the mental prompt in his head suddenly sounded.

Feeling puzzled, Leo Ray opened the Mind Talk, and a cool, neutral voice simr to Lindas immediately entered his ears: My Lord, I am Joceline no, I am Xenia ckwood. There was an incident just now that I think is necessary to report to you.
Xenia, what happened?
Hearing this, Leo Rays face could not help but reveal a slightly curious expression.
As for Xenia, Leo Ray was naturally not unfamiliar with her.
Just a while ago, it was because of his strong intervention that he had helped this young master of the Waters Family to take back the City Lord Mansion in Mn Town, and sessfully made her the new City Lord of Mn Town.
Thus, Mn Town, a prosperous agricultural town rich in food production, also became the second town under Leo Rays domain.
Of course, what left the deepest impression on Leo Ray was the fact that Xenia had always been disguised as a man.
Reporting to my Lord, while organizing the Treasure Vault, I identally found an old map that looks like a treasure map. However, the map is extremely weird, and I cant determine its exact location.
Soon after, Xenias crisp voice rang again.
Oh? Interesting.
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and said, Xenia, wait for me in Mn Town. I have something to arrange there.
After closing the Mind Talk, Leo Ray started to ponder with a frown on his face.
Todays main goal was to recruit two main followers of Princess Ariel, dig a hole in the heart of the aloof princess Coldme, and further learn about the information of the princess and her entourage from the side.
In this way, it can be determined whether there are any other thoughts or intentions that are detrimental to Leo Rays side,ying a solid foundation for the next move.
After all, Leo Ray had already learned before that Princess Ariel had indeed concealed some things, such as the mysterious that matter.
At present, one of the suitable candidates, maid Celestes recruitment work, has beenpleted for the moment.
As long as her family, whom she has always been thinking of, is properly resettled in Cyan Town, it should be more or less enough.
Another suitable candidate is the Tier 3 Deputy Squad Leader of the Royal Guard, who is from Mn Town.
Linda, other than maid Celeste, please describe the information of the other suitable candidate that we know of.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray walked down from the high tform where the throne was while speaking to the female knight at the bottom.
Replying to my Lord, this Tier 3 Deputy Squad Leader is named Gregg, a mercenary from Mn Town, and his upation is a Heavy Swordsman.
Bowing to Leo Ray, Linda stepped forward and replied, A few years ago, at the selection of the Royal Guard in the Royal Capital, this man, who is about thirty years old, stood out from the crowd and was sessfully selected as the first candidate, andst year, took the position of Deputy Squad Leader.
Pausing for a moment, Linda continued, Since this Royal Guard is specially assigned to protect Princess Ariel, they came to Cyan Town with the princess. As for Greggs family background, I have not yet figured it out. Please forgive me, my Lord.
Its okay. The information obtained has been very helpful to us already.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and smiled, As for the rest, Ill just ask Xeniater, after all, she is the current City Lord of Mn Town.
Having said that, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, then spoke to his subordinates, Alright, Linda, Mason Banks, Rhizoma Drynariae, you three stay here today.
Nodding to the three of them, Leo Ray continued, Your mission is to assist Nathan Howard and Ned Nathan in further stabilizing Ma Town, and to move the residents from Cyan Town back as soon as possible, especially maid Celestes family. If theres anything, contact me through Mind Talk.
Yes, my Lord!
Hearing this, Linda, Mason Banks, Rhizoma Drynariae, Nathan Howard, and Ned Nathan bowed and saluted in unison.
As for Taylor, Scarlett, Abigail, Amelia, and Bianca White,e with me to Mn Town.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray put on the Illusion Cloak and spoke.
Next, after putting the 20,000 units of zing Crystal into the Space Bracelet, Leo Ray left Ma Town with Taylor and the others.
After that, through swift motion, the group of six returned to the forest in the territory.
The reason for Leo Rays arrangement was, firstly, to store the 20,000 units of zing Crystal, which were upying a significant space in the bracelet, into the Storage Wooden Box.
Secondly, he went on a trip to the equipment warehouse in the territory, which had been converted from the fortress.
He upgraded all the equipment that had been previously reced by the Heavy Bow Shooter Squad, Shadow Squad, Tier 3 Powerhouses Squad, and Tier 3 Dragon Cavalry Squad.
Moreover, he took out 4,000 sets of Tier 2 equipment from the Storage Wooden Box, preparing to bring them to Mn Town.
After all, the three big squads of soldiers in Mn Town were still using ordinary Tier 1 equipment.
Having prepared everything and having lunch in the territory, Leo Ray nodded to the poised Taylor and the other five, Alright, lets set off.
Thus, in a short amount of time,
Under the slightly scorching sunlight in the afternoon, the group of six crossed the forest, crossed the river, and soon arrived at Mn Town, located south of Cyan Town.

Lord, youve arrived!
At this moment, Xenia ckwood and her guard, Be White, who had been waiting for Leo Ray under a big tree on the outskirts of the town, immediately greeted him excitedly.
Its been a few days.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray looked up and down at Xenia, and couldnt help but reveal a somewhat surprised expression.
By now, she was wearing female attire again.
Dressed in a slightly tight blue skirt, Xenias slender and curvaceous figure was perfectly outlined, making her look dignified and generous, emanating an aura of mature femininity.
The flowing shoulder-length short hair cascaded down from her pale and beautiful cheeks, adding a lively girlish charm.
As for Be White beside her, she still wore her hair in a ponytail, dressed in leather armor and carrying a long sword like a guard, looking spirited.
Moreover, Leo Ray noticed.
With the help of Qi Condensing Pills and Rose Gathering Energy Pills, after refining for so many days, both of them had upgraded from Tier 2 Five-star to Tier 3 Powerhouses, having their strength greatly enhanced.
Greetings, my Lord!
As they approached, Xenia and Be immediately saluted respectfully, bowing their heads deeply to Leo Ray.
No need for formalities, how has the situation in the city been these few days?
With a casual wave of his hand, Leo Ray walked into the shade of the tree and asked.
Reporting to my Lord, after several days of our efforts, the remnants of the three elders factions have beenpletely eliminated, and the control of the town has returned to our hands!
Xenia replied with an excited smile.
Then, her exquisite face revealed an unrestrainable gratitude, continuing, In summary, thanks to my Lord, otherwise I might have lost my life by now.
Youre wee.
Nodding nonchntly, Leo Ray inquired, By the way, hows your fathers injury?
My Lord, while my father has not awakened yet, his injuries have been stabilized thanks to your magical medicines, Xenia replied, her face showing even greater gratitude.
Very good, lets discuss the rest in the city.
Hearing this, Leo Ray smiled lightly and handed them each an Illusion Cloak.
After that, guided by Xenia and Be, Leo Rays party arrived at therge castle in the city center, naturally Mn Towns City Lord Mansion, following the green farnd on the outskirts of Mn Town, the towering city gate, and the simple yet bustling streets.
Entering the vast castle, they walked down the long corridor embedded with Light Crystal Stones, and Leo Ray headed straight to the Lords Mansions armory.
Under Xenias and Bes incredulous gazes, he filled the ce with arge number of brand-new Tier 2 equipment.
These are 2000 sets of Tier 2 Infantry equipment, 1000 sets of Tier 2 Cavalry equipment, and 1000 sets of Tier 2 long-range Archer equipment, enough topletely reequip all the soldiers in Mn Town.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray immediately said.
Thank you so much, my Lord!
Seeing this, excitement colored Xenias fair and beautiful face as she bowed in gratitude.
With this development, the overall strength of Mn Town would undoubtedly rise to a new level!
After rejoicing, Xenia, apanied by Be, took a step forward and hesitated a bit before requesting, My Lord, ever since we parted ways a few days ago, Be has been asking me if it would be possible for her to also be a subordinate of my Lord
Meanwhile, Be quickly knelt on one knee and pleaded, I am willing to go through fire and water for my Lord! Please grant me your permission!
At this moment, Leo Ray couldnt help but smile helplessly.
Back then, he only took Xenia as his subordinate because the territory had reached its poption limit.
Now, with the Lords Mansion upgraded, there were no issues at all.
Very well, lets begin signing the contract then.
With a slight smile, Leo Rays mind willed, and a Recruitment Order materialized in his hand.
Soon, the familiar prompt echoed in Leo Rays ears.
[Congrattions, Tier 3 One-Star Swordsman Be Landon has signed a Master-Servant Contract and be your new subordinate!]
After helping Be up, Leo Ray immediately opened her attribute column.
[Name: Be White]
[upation: Swordsman]
[Tier: Tier 3 One-Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Fire Spark Thrust Active (Physical Single-Target Attack)]
[Skill Two: Fire Spark Burst Active (Physical Single-Target Attack, with Blinding Effect)]
[Skill Three: One-handed Sword Mastery Passive (Increases damage slightly when using a one-handed sword)]
Satisfied, Leo Ray nodded and casually opened Xenias attribute column again.
[Name: Xenia ckwood]
[upation: Earth and Rock Mage]
[Tier: Tier 3 One-Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Earth Spear Stab Active (Earth Element Small Area Spell Group Attack, with Piercing Effect)]
[Skill Two: Earth Wall Active (Earth Element Defensive Magic, excelling when cast on soil terrain)]
[Skill Three: Earth Elemental Magic Mastery Passive (Increases damage moderately when using Earth Magic)]
Not bad, not bad. With the two of you advancing to Tier 3, Mn Towns overall strength has undoubtedly made further progress.

After closing the attribute column, Leo Rays mind moved, and two brand-new storage rings appeared in his hands.
Next, he handed the shiny storage rings to the two people in order.
As usual, Leo Ray gave each of them a Tier 4 magic wand and a Tier 4 longsword, as well as 15 Tier 1 healing potions and 15 Tier 2 healing potions.
Of course, there were also the two Illusion Cloaks and two Rose Gathering Energy Pills given at the beginning to further enhance and consolidate their strength.
On the other side, after receiving this series of invaluable items.
The two peoples throats rolled, hardly believing their eyes. Even Xenia ckwood, as the lord of Mn Town, was once again deeply impressed by Leo Rays extravagance.
Waving precious items worth millions of gold dragons Lord, you really are rich!
Alright, stop being dumbfounded. Lets get down to business.
Looking at the two female subordinates who were dumbfounded in front of him, Leo Ray smiled helplessly.
Please, Lord, follow us!
At these words, Xenia, whose delicate and fair face flushed red with extreme excitement, quickly started leading the way again.
Leaving the equipment vault, they walked up the spacious and bright castle staircase.
Before long, Leo Rays party arrived at the upper level area of the castle, where the defense was most stringent.
You can go now. You dont need to be here anymore.
Dismissing the guards at the door, Xenia and Be White opened the heavy metal door together and respectfully weed Leo Ray in.
Lord, this is the treasure vault of Mn City.
Entering the room, Xenia walked gracefully towards an ancient red wooden cab and began introducing: It was in the hiddenpartment of this cab that I identally discovered the mysterious parchment with the strange map. Since this cab had always been stored in a secret chamber in their of the three elders, I always felt that it must have some secret, so thats why I had it moved here.
With that said, Xenia bent down to open the drawer and handed an ancient-looking yellowed parchment to Leo Ray.
I see.
As he took the parchment from Xenias delicate hands, a faint musty smell immediately hit him, indicating that it had already been through a long period of time.
With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Leo Ray squinted his eyes and began to examine the parchment carefully.
This ancient sheepskin scroll had no signs of cutting at the edges, and no lines were drawn along the perimeter. It seemed to be aplete map.
In the center of the parchment, a map-like image was depicted with thick ck lines.
However, just as Xenia had said, this map was indeed very peculiar.
Not only did it include mountains and forests on the front side, but also upside-down and nted, looking extremely chaotic, like a random coge.
It was even impossible for one to determine which side was the real front side.
However, arge red cross was drawn at the prominent position, looking very much like a treasure map.
Quite interesting.
Seeing this, Leo Ray gently held the moldy and somewhat faded sheepskin parchment due to its age and couldnt help but reveal an interested expression.
As for his subordinates, they all crowded closer, showing surprise as well.
Lord, is this really a treasure map?Seeing this, Bianca Whites fluffy white ears twitched slightly, clearly filled with curiosity.
Yeah, if it really is a treasure map, there must be some incredible treasures hidden in it, right?
Scarlett, a slightly shorter girl, stood on tiptoes and joined in the conversation.
Meanwhile, the two maids, Abigail and Amelia, looked on with curious expressions on their faces.
The situation is still unclear.
After briefly exchanging nces with Taylor, Leo Ray shook his head and said, However, since it has been carefully guarded by the elders, there must be some secrets hidden within.
Lord, I also think so.
Xenia ckwood stepped forward and bowed again, I believe that the elders likewise have not yet figured out the maps mysteries, so they hid it between the drawers of the wooden cab. Otherwise, with their nature, they probably would have gone treasure hunting long ago.
Youre right, as for us, it seems that we are alsocking the opportunity to figure out this map.
As he said this, Leo Ray stored the ancient parchment into his space bracelet.
Next, he continued to explore the treasure vault under Xenias guidance.
After some investigation, Leo Ray found several items in the vault: five pieces of Tier 3 equipment, three Tier 2 Magic Medicines called Energy Charging Pills that could replenish physical energy, and two Tier 2 Magic Medicines called Earth Rock Pills that enhanced earth magic.
Leo Ray had previously obtained some of these magic medicines at the Viennas City auction.
He didnt hesitate and stored all the items in his space bracelet, and began upgrading them immediately.
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Weapon Chaser Longbow has been upgraded to 100 pieces!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Weapon Flowing Light Sword has been upgraded to 99 pieces!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Armor Silver Knights Light Armor has been upgraded to Tier 4 Armor Saint Knight Light Armor!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine Energy Charging Pill has been upgraded to Tier 3 Magic Medicine Holy Moon Energy Pill!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine Energy Charging Pill has been upgraded to 105 pieces!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magic Medicine Earth Rock Pill has been upgraded to 102 pieces!]
In this way, after a series of upgrades, Leo Ray obtained more than 300 pieces of Tier 3 equipment, 2 pieces of Tier 4 equipment, over 200 Tier 2 Magic Medicines, and 3 Tier 3 Magic Medicines.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and continued his observation.
Besides these, there were also a few valuable artworks and a few boxes of gold dragons, totaling around 100,000 pieces.
I apologize, Lord, for the emptiness of Mn Towns treasure vault, due to the previous elders wasteful behavior. Xenia ckwood said embarrassingly.
Its alright, Mn Towns treasure vault has been replenished again.
Leo Ray smirked and waved his hand, and in a moment, before the astonished gaze of Xenia and Be White, the treasure vault was once again filled to the brim with stacked Tier 3 equipment, shining with dazzling colors.
Chapter 375 - 324: Preparation Work Completed【5K】_1
Chapter 375: Chapter 324: Preparation Work Completed5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
Here are 200 sets of Tier 3 light armor and 200 Tier 3 longswords, enough for Mn Town to equip two elite Royal Guard squads.
Gazing at Xenia ckwoods and Be Whites stunned expressions, Leo Ray looked indifferent and smiled slightly.
It seemed as if what wasid out before them wasnt a citys worth of valuable equipment but a pile of cardboard boxes that could be found anywhere.
These light armors, called[Silver Knight Light Armor], were all upgraded from Tier 3 equipment acquired at the Viennas City Auction.
As for the Tier 3 longswords, they were called[Saint Light Knight Swords]and were obtained from the border battlefield.
Suddenly, without waiting for their response,
Leo Rays heart moved slightly, and 200 Qi Condensing Pills in brocade boxes appeared in front of everyone again.
These 200 Qi Condensing Pills can also be used to form the Royal Guard squads. Select some outstanding Tier 1, Nine-Star soldiers from the current Defense Army, and have them undergo collective refining. This will give Mn Town another 200 elite Tier 2 soldiers.
As he paced around in the treasure vaults only empty space, Leo Ray continued, As an agricultural town rich in grain production, Mn Town is very important to our territory. I hope that while focusing on production, you will not neglect the training of the army.
Yes, my Lord! Please rest assured!
On the other side, overjoyed, Xenia ckwood quickly stepped forward and bowed to Leo Ray.
Without a doubt, a well-trained squad of Tier 2 soldiers is enough to withstand an ordinary squad of Tier 1 soldiers on the battlefield.
When forming dense battle formations and engaging in face-to-facebat, even when facing ten Tier 3 powerhouses or one Tier 4 powerhouse simultaneously, they can hold their ground, demonstrating their strength.
Of course, this is ignoring factors such as upational restraint, equipment disparity, terrain, and other factors.
Oh, right, theres one more thing: Be, do you know a heavy swordsman named Gregg?
As he stroked his chin, Leo Ray asked the young female bodyguard.
My Lord, the man you speak of is my elder brother, who is currently serving in the Royal Capital.
Be White stepped forward and replied with a fist, When I was young, my brother was just an ordinary mercenary. Since it was just the two of us siblings relying on each other, he was very protective of me. He was the one who taught me my swordsmanship.
It wasnt until I entered the City Lord Mansion and could support myself that my brother left Mn Town to try his luck in the Royal Capital.
I see. Well, then, that makes things much easier.
Hearing that, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly.
He then informed Xenia ckwood and Be White of his target to be recruited today C one of Princess Ariels attendants C as well as his ultimate goal for the current stage: to win over Princess Ariel herself.
Upon hearing Leo Rays description, Xenia ckwood and Be White could hardly believe their ears, their mouths hanging open in shock once more.
As expected of our Lord!
Even the Fifth Princess of Coldme, who stood at the apex of power in the kingdom, had not managed to escape his gaze, and he nned to make her his subordinate it was simply inconceivable!
It should be noted that Princess Ariel, being the youngest princess of Coldme, had received the utmost pampering from the old king since childhood, not to mention the countless courtesies she enjoyed from the fawning nobles.
As a consequence, it is not an exaggeration to call her the noblest of all nobles, and thedy of alldies in the Kingdom of Coldme.
Crucially, the Coldme Royal Family had ruled thisnd for centuries, and each of its members looked down upon all others with disdain and pride.
To make these elite royal members, who have received top-notch education and stand at the peak of power, bow their noble heads is no easy feat?!
Thinking about this, Xenia ckwood and Be White couldnt help but swallow nervously. When they looked at Leo Ray, their eyes now held a hint of unstoppable admiration.
After calming down for a while, Be White, with her hair in a ponytail, stepped forward and respectfully said, My Lord, did you just saymy brother is in Cyan Town now?
Afterward, her fair face showed a touch of destion as she continued, But in that case, why hasnt my brothere to find me, his own sister?
You cant me him for that.
Hearing that, Leo Ray gestured slightly for Be not to worry.
Actually, this situation happened because of Leo Rays orders.
The two elite squads apanying Princess Ariel were restricted to the barracks in the vicinity of the Lords Mansion in Cyan Town, not allowed to leave at will.
As a result, Gregg, who served as the deputy squad leader of the guards, was unable to take leave to go to Mn Town, which was only natural.
Immediately afterward, Leo Ray exined the ins and outs of the situation to Be White.
So thats how it is.
On the other side, Be White nodded and then confidently smiled. She bowed to Leo Ray and said, My Lord, please leave the matter of winning over my brother to me. Rest assured.
Very well, with this, my current two targets for recruitment, maid Celeste Reiss and Deputy Squad Leader Gregg, are now under my control.
By cing it into the gray magic array on the wall we saw earlier, youll restore some of my energy, and we can meet again. By then, you can obtain even more treasures.
As King Wests figure became more transparent, he continued, As for my resting ce, even if its already exposed, you dont need to worry, Leo.
The teleportation magic array was made by a Tier 6 Expert of the Winged Race, and the hall and treasure vaults around it are built in a void within a barrier area.
Unless a Tier 6 Magic System Expert tries to force it open, its practically unbreakable.
At this point, King Wests figure hadpletely disappeared, leaving only his aged and weary voice echoing throughout the vast, splendid hall, Leo, I wonder how strong youll be the next time we meet?
Im actually looking forward to it
And so, after King Wests voice disappeared,
As Leo Ray had just put away Earth Guardians and Sky Guardians into the Space Bracelet,
A faint gray light shed by.
Next, when Leo Rays vision cleared again,
He found himself in a smaller, unfamiliar room.
As he looked around, the first thing that caught Leo Rays eyes was a mountain of Gold Dragons, amounting to at least tens of millions, shimmering so brightly it was almost blinding.
Without hesitation, Leo Ray waved his hand, collecting all the Gold Dragons into his Space Bracelet.
After nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray continued his inspection.
Not far from there, on the wall, floated a faint gray magic array that continuously rotated, identical to the one he first saw.
Looks like that should be the passage back to the underground square.
Noticing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, taking a step forward and continuing his inspection.
Around the room, various exquisite storage shelves and differently shaped metal boxes were neatly arranged, their contents hidden from view.
After looking around for a while, Leo Ray couldnt help but ponder, King West said earlier that he doesnt have much energy left, so I should leave as soon as possible.
If the energy here runs out and the magic array shuts down, itll be troublesome.
With this in mind, Leo Ray involuntarily increased his pace.
Next, without having time to examine everything carefully, Leo Ray directly collected everything inside the room that could fit into his storage space.
Alright, lets get out of here quickly.
With the entire room empty, Leo Ray immediately headed towards the teleportation array without any dy.
As soon as he approached the gray magic array, he was once again absorbed into it.
And so, when Leo Rays vision cleared,
He found himself back in the underground square.
Lord, youre back!
On the other side, upon seeing Leo Ray reappear, all his subordinates immediately gathered around him, excited expressions on their faces.
Among them, Gideon cks hands were wreathed in the Power of Healing, checking whether Leo Ray was injured.
Ariel Watson and the others couldnt help but breathe a sigh of relief.
While Leo Ray was missing, each of his main subordinates emitted an ice-cold atmosphere, causing Ariel to suspect,
That if something truly happened to that annoying guy, they would be the ones to suffer
Dont worry, Im fine.
After noticing that the Mind Talk feature, along with the Returning Crystal and Teleportation Crystal, were back to normal, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Immediately, his face filled with excitement as well.
It had to be said that this time, both information and treasures had been gained in abundance!
Chapter 411 - 336: Returning and the Hall Meeting【5K】_1
Chapter 411: Chapter 336: Returning and the Hall Meeting5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
Alright, we shouldnt stay here too long; lets leave first.
Looking at the towering stone walls and the surrounding dark environment, Leo Ray, who had a good harvest, smiled faintly and spoke to the subordinates that surrounded him.
Under Leo Rays leadership,
The subordinates, Ariel, and the others did not say anything more. They shed their bodies and began to fly towards the entrance of the underground square.
Next, following the same route they hade, they sped through the long and ancient corridors, stirring up the dust in the process.
Before long, Leo Ray and more than a dozen people arrived directly outside the bell tower.
Back under the cold moonlight, Leo Ray felt the cool evening breeze with a strong smell of blood while noticing.
At this time, the fighting and shouting in the north of the city began to fade, leaving only thick smoke and rising mes lingering in the sky.
It seemed that the Goblin Legion, sensing that something was wrong, had begun to retreat.
Since the crisis of Dragons Lair has been resolved, we can safely return to Cyan Town.
Withdrawing his gaze from the distance, Leo Ray nodded slightly to everyone.
Then, the group traveled through the ins and mountains at a swift pace.
In no time, the familiar city outline appeared before everyones eyes.
At this distance, you could already clearly see the bustling figures on the walls of Cyan Town.
During this time, under Leo Raysmand,
Due to the reinforcement of the city walls and the excavation of the moat, and the fact that Cyan Town itself was a prosperousmercial town,
The whole city, both inside and outside, was brightly lit and appeared very weing.
Meanwhile, on the way back,
Leo Ray used mind talk to briefly describe the events that had unfolded to the others who were not present, such as Gunner Santons, Finn Stanley, Rhizoma Drynariae, Xenia ckwood, and Nathan Howard, all of whom marveled at the tale.
Also, during their return journey, Leo Ray noticed,
Ariel, who had been circling nearby, had cast her eager gaze over several times, both intentionally and unintentionally.
She was obviously very curious about what exactly happened inside her ancestors resting ce.
Afterward, after they sessfully entered the city,
Leo Ray and his group went directly back to the City Lord Mansion and returned to the brightly lit castle hall.
At this moment, Leo Ray, who was sitting at the head of the table, picked up a steaming cup of tea and tilted his head slightly.
He noticed that, unsurprisingly, Ariel had followed him and sat down on a lower luxurious seat, still looking eager but trying to appear calm.
My dear Her Highness the Fifth Princess, why dont you go back and rest?
Raising an eyebrow, Leo Ray sipped his fragrant tea and asked knowingly.
At this time, Leo Ray knew clearly,
To ultimately win over the proud Ariel, apart from starting with the people around her,
Another important step is to dampen her spirit considerably.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray furrowed his brows.
He then pondered to himself, If only Ariel had been in the hall, things would have been much simpler. It seems we need to find the Sacred Essence Stone that can help King West regain some of his energy as soon as possible.
Realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but recall the conversation he had with Hero King Caesar, or Traveler King West, in the grand hall, and continued to think.
From the other partys words, he could tell,
That this world is far moreplicated than he had imagined.
As for the authenticity of their words, it should be beyond doubt.
Moreover, as he progressed further, he would receive confirmation one by one.
This was not something he needed to worry about.
In addition, the talent hinted by the other party is quite interesting.
However, just like what the other person said, his system interface was like a test version.
He couldnt ess the Trading Center, Chat Channel, or private messaging interfaces.
Considering that, is it possible that the other partys traversal is actually a test before the Ten Billion Lords Traversal? If thats the case, then the matter bes even more intriguing.
As Leo Ray held the steaming cup of tea and thought about this,
On the other side, Ariel finally couldnt help but respond with a frown, Arent you going to tell me what happened when you were teleported into my ancestors resting ce?
At this time, from Ariels annoyed and fair face, it was obvious that she was still resentful that it wasnt her who was teleported, but the annoying guy in front of her.
However, at the same time, a big question mark emerged in Ariels heart,
Considering it from another angle, since my ancestor chose this annoying guy, is it possiblethat he really isnt amon person?
Realizing this, Ariel couldnt help but look at Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett, who were standing respectfully below, seeming to be more certain of her thoughts.
But, she immediately dismissed the idea and shook her head lightly, Its impossible. It must be due to the long passage of time causing the magic array to malfunction; otherwise, my ancestor would definitely choose me, their descendant

Furthermore, my ancestor was the Hero King who single-handedly created the entire Coldme Royal Family. How could he possibly choose someone from another world?
On the other side, looking at Arielsplicated expression, Leo Ray slightly curled his lips.
He muttered to himself, If this arrogant Coldme Princess knew that her ancestor, like me, was also a traveler from the Earth, she would probably be shocked to the point of deformation, right?
By the way, ording to the timeline on Earth, my age isnt much different from that of King West. We could even call each other equals. In that case, wouldnt Ariel have to call me Ancestor too?
Amused by this thought, Leo Ray was well aware.
At this stage, even if he told Ariel about this, she would never believe it and might even react in the opposite way.
In any case, I should wait until I find the Sacred Essence Stone, take Ariel with me, and let King West tell her himself. Im really looking forward to seeing the expression on her arrogant face.
With that thought, Leo Ray refreshed himself, took another sip of the fragrant tea, and then said, I wonder what Her Highness the Fifth Princess wants to know? By the way, it wasnt just idle chatting between me and your ancestor, Hero King Caesar.
You really met my ancestor?!
At his words, Ariel immediately showed a surprised expression, gripping the armrests of her chair and leaning slightly forward with curiosity.
Meanwhile, Burt and Joshua, the two Kingdom Generals seated below, started exchanging nces.
There was no doubt that, in the Coldme Kingdom, Hero King Caesars name
Was a legendary existence for both the nobles on high and the ordinary civilians.
However, the most shocked one was naturally Ariel herself.
It was known that Hero King Caesars era was the most glorious era of the Coldme Kingdom.
At that time, not only did Caesar himself ultimately reach the level of Tier 5 Peak Experts
His two crucial forces, Royal Terrain Dragon Knight Commander Pn and Half-Elf Archer Commander Iris Winters, were also tier 5 Peak experts with formidable skills!
Most importantly, for Ariel who had grown up listening to Hero Kings adventure stories
The name Hero King undoubtedly carried great weight.
Moreover, it was revealed through the ancient books passed down by the Coldme Royal Family that the resting ce of their Ancestral Hero King Caesar indeed sealed some mysterious power.
Therefore, it wasnt an impossible thing for their ancestor to reveal himself once more.
Thats right.
Looking at the shocked expression on Ariels delicate face, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and continued, I have to say, you really resemble your ancestor quite a bit, especially your hair.
Really?
Hearing this, a hint of joy appeared on Ariels fair face, but she quickly returned to a doubtful expression, But then again, how can you prove that you really met my ancestor?
Not far away, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips as he thought to himself, Isnt the fact that I went in and came back unharmed the best proof?
Of course, Leo Ray clearly understood.
If he wanted to make Princess Ariel thoroughly believe that he had met her ancestor
He needed to reveal some family secrets that only the royal members knew.
So, when chatting with King West at the time
Leo Ray specifically asked about some of these issues, and King West didnt hold anything back, telling him everything.
It must be said that when Leo Ray first heard about these secrets, he couldnt help butugh out loud.
For example, your ancestor told me that all the Coldme royal family members must learn to recite the multiplication table before entering the Noble Academy
Then, Leo Ray listed more than a dozen very Summer Realm-styled royal family rules in one breath.
On the other side, listening to Leo Rays endless descriptions of her familys secret teachings, Ariel could hardly believe her ears.
To know, she had to work out ingenious ways toplete these strange yet wisdom-filled rules when she was a child, and for the first time, she experienced the hardships of being a royal family member
But then again, since this annoying guy in front of her knew all these things, the answer was naturally self-evident.
He seemed to have really met her ancestor!
At the same time, Burt and Joshua at the lower seats exchanged nces once more.
From the expression on the Princess face, it was evident
The words spoken by this Otherworldly Lord were undoubtedly true.
In that case, the great Hero King had actually chosen this young Otherworldly Lord over his own descendant, Princess Ariel?!
Then, it was very clear.
Being favored by the Hero King, this Otherworldly Lord was certainly not an ordinary person!
Realizing this, the hearts of the two Kingdom Generals were immediately filled with waves.
So, do you have any more questions?
Looking at the increasingly stupefied expression on Ariels pretty face, Leo Ray shrugged his shoulders nonchntly and emptied his cup of fragrant tea.
Chapter 413 - 336: Returning and the Hall Meeting【5K】_3
Chapter 413: Chapter 336: Returning and the Hall Meeting5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
What did my ancestor say to you?
On the other side, Ariel Watson, whose face was also full of disbelief, quickly asked again.
When the time is ripe, I will naturally tell you all, Leo Ray said with a faint smile as he once again received the teacup respectfully handed over by Amelia. However, I can tell you that I have reached some sort of agreement with Hero King Caesar.
At this stage, mentioning the catastrophe to Ariel and the other two is clearly meaningless.
Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity, leaving a deep and unfathomable mysterious impression in the hearts of the three people is undoubtedly more conducive to their subsequent actions.
After all, having recruited Gregg as the deputy captain of the guards and Celeste Reiss as Ariels personal maid,
His next target is naturally the two kingdom generals, who hold high positions and power in the Coldme Kingdom, but are currently in apletely precarious situation.
Immediately after, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, his gaze sequentially swept over Ariel, Giant Axe General Burt, and Holy Light General Joshua.
He added: And I have agreed with the Hero King on the next meeting time. At that time, if I wish, it is not impossible to bring Her Highness the Fifth Princess with me.
Of course, what Leo Ray said was not false.
However, he did not mention the matter of the Sacred Essence Stone.
And the moment he finds the Sacred Essence Stone will undoubtedly be the time for his next meeting with King West.
Moreover, in his words, Leo Ray also revealed a key piece of information.
That is, whether Ariel, as a descendant, can meet the ancestral Hero King depends on Leo Ray, not others.
This point is crucial, and it indirectly indicates that Leo Ray and Hero King Caesar are obviously on an equal footing.
As expected, upon hearing this, whether it was Ariel, Burt, or Joshua, their faces couldnt help but reveal an unbelievable look.
The three of them understood the meaning behind Leo Rays conveyed information at once.
Regardless of anything else, an Otherworldly Lord who had recently arrived and stood on the same level as the Hero King was enough to prove that he was extraordinary!
At this moment, looking at Leo Ray, who was calmly drinking tea,
The expressions on the faces of Ariel and the others began to waver with uncertainty.
Although it was just one-sided testimony, what Leo Ray said earlier about the Royal Familys hidden secrets were facts.
Therefore, it is impossible to prove how much of this is true or false.
Unless they could truly meet the Hero King himself, who had fallen centuries ago.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who was sitting on the throne, looked at theplex expressions on the faces of Ariel and the others, and smiled faintly.
By now, his goal had been achieved.
Next, as long as he can recruit the two kingdom generals separately.
Then, dealing with Ariel in the end will naturally be easy.
Even the two legions left by the kingdom generals in the Royal Capital will fall under his control at the same time.
Even if they cannot be controlled for the time being, it would still be a victory as long as these two legions do not be his enemies during the uing war.
Alright, Her Highness the Fifth Princess, lets talk about something else now, Leo Ray put down his teacup and changed the subject. It seems that you had seen those ck-robed people wearing white masks before the battle at the underground square?
Indeed.
Hearing this, Ariel regained herposure, arranging her slightly curled blue hair and responding, At that time, in the Royal Capital, there were such strangely dressed people in the group of assassins trying to kill me.
However, they escaped that time, and we did not learn their specific identities.
Oh?
Hearing this, Leo Rays expression became serious, and he frowned slightly.
Those who wanted to kill Ariel were naturally the other princes.
Considering this, it undoubtedly showed that among the princespeting for power, one of them might have joined this mysterious organization.
No wonder the mysterious organizations strongmen have be increasingly aggressive in the Coldme Kingdomtely. It turns out that someone in the Royal Capital is secretly working for them
Realizing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, revealing a suddenly enlightened look and continued to ponder, However, this doesnt affect the matter I am currently implementing, which is to provoke conflict between the Coldme Royal Family and the mysterious organization.
After all, as long as one prince joins the mysterious organization, they will never allow other princes to join. This might not be a bad thing either.
Thinking of this, Leo Rays tight frown rxed, and he asked again, As for these mysterious powerhouses, does Her Highness the Fifth Princess have any other clues?
I dont.
On the other side, Ariel sighed lightly, shook her head helplessly, and said, These people are extremely secretive and highly skilled. They killed all the guards with a single blow, leaving no ws. Thats why they left such a deep impression in my heart.
I understand. It is indeed in line with their usual ruthless style.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray stood up from the throne, smiled at Ariel, and said, Alright, Her Highness the Fifth Princess, lets end it here today. I have enjoyed our time together, and I hope we can have another opportunity to cooperate in the future.
After speaking, without waiting for Ariels response, Leo Ray left the hall with his main subordinates in tow.
In this way, under the watchful gaze of Gideon ck and the others who stayed behind,
Leo Ray did not linger in Cyan Town and immediately went with Taylor and the others towards the forest territory.
Next, its time to take inventory of the harvest from this trip!
Chapter 414 - 337: Surprising Harvest【5K】_1
Chapter 414: Chapter 337: Surprising Harvest5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
Under the vast moonlight, smelling the refreshing scent of the forest, Leo Ray and his party soon returned to the gate on the western side of their territory.
Greetings, Lord!
Seeing Leo Rays return, a group of werewolf warriors responsible for guarding the gate immediately bowed in salute, theirrge white tails swaying back and forth continuously.
At the same time, heavy shield shootermander Luther Blues and the heavy armored guardmander Roger Smith, who were overseeing the construction of the city gates, also came forward and bowed to Leo Ray.
Youve worked hard. When its almost done, return to rest early.
Leo Ray leaped off the white giant wolf and smiled slightly at the twomanders.
Following that, he stretched his somewhat stiff body, then nodded at Taylor and other main force powerhouses beside him, signaling the team to disband on the spot.
Next, passing through the under-construction city gate, Leo Ray noticed that:
The slightly smaller western gate of the territory was already more than half constructed, made up ofrge stones and concrete. It looked thick and sturdy.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction as he walked slowly through his territory, noticing that the other construction projects were also progressing systematically.
Most circr fortresses were already connected by thick stone blocks, forming aplete city wall in the truest sense.
On the spacious city wall, many crions and magic cannon turrets had begun taking shape.
All in all,pared to the previous day, the construction of the city gates and walls had made significant progress.
It wont be long before the territory bes a well-defended, solid fortress!
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a satisfied expression.
You should know that the territory the Lords Mansion is in is the foundation for every Lord in this world, so naturally, it is of utmost importance.
Once all of this is fully constructed, and the moat outside the city wall is transformed into a protective city river, it will be even more perfect!
Leo Ray nodded slightly, and then came to the southeast corner of the territory, where Rudy Blues and other Chef powerhouses, Farmer Squads, and newly recruited Pterosaur Knight Squads were setting up kitchens.
By now, the stone-builtrge kitchen was almostplete.
Gavin Sullivans Farmer Squad and Seans Pterosaur Knight Squad were working on the final finishing touches.
Rudy Blues and his team, on the other hand, worked together with the old steward Warren Dexter and several Tier 3 female servants to build the kitchens sewage treatment magic array.
Lord, youre back!
Seeing Leo Raying, all subordinates immediately put down their work and bowed their heads in salute.
To which, Leo Ray just smiled slightly and signaled everyone to continue their work.
After that, he walked all around his territory.
Leo Ray walked towards his Lords Mansion, and besides the nine Earth Guardians and two Sky Guardians already prepared in his space bracelet,
The remaining five groups, a total of 15 Earth Guardians, were rearranged to their respective positions.
It was still one group guarding the front door, one group guarding the back door, one group guarding the Lords Mansion, one group guarding the two Miracle Buildings, and thest one charging.
Next, Leo Ray pushed open the heavy metal gate, returned to the Lords Mansion that was no different from a small fortress, walked up the spacious stone steps, and went straight to the third floors Lords Office.
Let me see what kind of spoils of war I have gotten this time.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray rubbed his hands excitedly, beginning to take inventory of what he gained from this trip to Dragons Lair.
Following that, with just a thought from Leo Ray, fifteen strangely colored various weapons suddenly appeared on the spacious solid wood office desk.
At the same time, the light shining from three of these weapons was significantly stronger than the others, which belonged to the Tier 4 Goblin Shaman and two mysterious organizations Tier 4 Powerhouses.
Three Tier 4 weapons and twelve Tier 3 weapons, huh
Looking at this, Leo Ray whispered, Not bad, but its a pity that I didnt find any storage rings on these people.
Without hesitation, Leo Ray took them into his storage space and began upgrading.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Forest Green Staff has been upgraded to Tier 5 Weapon: Nature Staff!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Elemental Star Wand has been upgraded to Tier 5 Weapon: Elemental Dance!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Dragon Scale Battle Axe has been upgraded to Tier 4 Weapon: Dragon Scale Battle Axe C 100 pieces!]
[Congrattions, you have]
Nice, I got two more Tier 5 Divine Weapons, huh? As for the twelve Tier 3 weapons, six of them were upgraded to Tier 4, and the rest were quantity changes.
Hearing the series of promt messages, Leo Ray was satisfied as he nodded and proceeded to open the attribute column of the two new Tier 5 wands.
[Name: Nature Staff]
[Grade: Tier 5?Transcendent (Silver)]
[Attack Strength: ]
[Additional Effect 1: Natures Power Duration of sustained spells doubled ]
[Additional Effect 2: Natures Protection Magic damage below Tier 5 halve
Chapter 415 - 337: A Surprising Harvest【5K】_2
Chapter 415: Chapter 337: A Surprising Harvest5K_2
Trantor: 549690339
[Note: The body of this staff is made from the branches of a thousand-year-old ancient tree, emitting an aura of antiquity.]
[The core of the staff is embedded with a top-grade, magic-filled Stone of Nature, possessing the miraculous effect of enhancing the duration of spells.]
[Name: Elemental Dance]
[Tier: 5 (Extraordinary) (Silver)]
[Attack Strength: ]
[Effect one: Magic Amplification ? Absolute (Significantly increases damage when casting spells)]
[Effect two: Magic Reduction ? Extreme (Substantially reduces the casters consumption of magic)]
[Note: The manufacturing process of this wand is extremelyplex,bining twelve rare magical metals. It has a remarkable amplification effect and reduces magic consumption for all attribute spells. It is said that the original creator of this wand was a master magic craftsman with a lineage of human, elf, and winged races.]
Is Natures Staff focused on support, while Elemental Dance is focused on offense?
After closing the attribute column, Leo Ray moved his mind, and a wooden staff exuding an antique atmosphere and a silver metal short wand appeared in his hands at the same time.
At a nce, both wands emitted strong and colorful dazzling auras, making it difficult for anyone not to be dazzled by them.
The mana reduction effect of the Natures Staff is not bad, Ill keep it with me for now. If in the future, there are any main subordinates capable of using City Building Skill or other continuous spells, it wouldnt be toote to take it out.
As for Elemental Dance, Ill let Scarlett use it. She just stepped into the threshold of Tier 4 powerhouses, and having this Tier 5 wand would undoubtedly further increase herbat ability and endurance.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray put the two wands away, an expectant look crossing his face.
Next, it was time to inspect the items obtained from King Wests Treasure Vault!
Immediately, with a single thought from Leo Ray, arge number of metal boxes and brocade boxes filled the entire Lords Office.
Ill start with the smaller items.
Making his decision, Leo Ray rolled up his sleeves and got to work.
First of all, there was an assortment of magical potions in the small brocade boxes.
After a careful inventory, Leo Ray discovered that there were as many as 60 of these magical potions, all of them Tier 2.
Among them, there were 20 healing potions, 20 Qi Condensing Pills, and 20 Haste Pills.
There was no need to mention the healing and Qi Condensing Pills.
The Haste Pills could increase movement speed without any side effects.
Seeing this, Leo Ray immediately began the upgrade process.
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magical Potion: Healing Pill has been upgraded to Tier 3 Magical Potion: Eulogy Feather Transformation Pill]!
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magical Potion: Blood Restoration Pill has been upgraded to Tier 2 Magical Potion: Blood Restoration Pill 105]!
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magical Potion: Qi Condensing Pill has been upgraded to Tier 3 Magical Potion: Rose Gathering Energy Pill]!
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Magical Potion: Haste Pill had been upgraded to Tier 2 Magical Potion: Haste Pill 100]!
[Congrattions, your ]
Thus, after a series of upgrades, Leo Ray, as expected, acquired more than 1000 Tier 2 healing potions, Qi Condensing Pills, and Haste Pills.
In addition, he gained 10 Tier 3 healing potions, 10 Rose Gathering Energy Pills, and 10 upgraded versions of Haste Pill: Wind Spirit Haste Pill.
Not bad at all, with this, my stash of potions has reached a new level of abundance!
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself: I remember that among the rewards from the defeat of the Half-Orc Corps, there was a Haste Potion form, and it allowed me to sessfully upgrade to the Wind Spirit Haste Potion form.
In this way, once I have a Wind Spirit Haste Pill and if needed in the future, all I have to do is to disassemble it, and my territory can mass producing Wind Spirit Haste Pills!
Feeling ted, as Leo Ray strolled leisurely through the piles of treasures, his thoughts continued, As the saying goes, the essence of war is speed. When the time is right, and I need to mobilize arge amount of soldiers, these potions that can increase their movement speed will undoubtedly provide a tremendous assistance!
Moreover, during battle, the soldiers ability to dodge and their agility will also be enhanced ordingly.
Realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown slightly while feeling excited, On the other hand, although these Tier 2 level potions already have a considerable value, they are currently just the icing on the cake for me. Theyre still a bitcking in terms of significantly enhancing my power. If I could obtain Tier 3 potions, that would certainly be even better
As Leo Ray ruminated on this, his eyes inadvertently drifted, and he unexpectedly discovered that behind arge golden box, there were two small red brocade boxes hidden.
Moreover, these two brocade boxes seemed much more exquisite than the ones he had seen earlier in appearance.
Its been hidden in quite a concealed ce, I wonder which kind of potions these boxes contain?
Curious, Leo Ray bent down and picked up the two brocade boxes.
After straightening up, he leaned against the table and opened them one after the other.
The lids barely opened when a thick and somewhat familiar fragrance wafted into his nostrils.
Chapter 416 - 337: The Surprisingly Good Harvest【5K】_3
Chapter 416: Chapter 337: The Surprisingly Good Harvest5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
Gazing at the two identical magic medicines in front of his eyes, Leo Ray was momentarily taken aback.
A streak of joy immediately rushed to his face.
It turned out to be two brand-new Rose Gathering Energy Pills!
Previously, my Rose Gathering Energy Pills were all upgraded from Qi Condensing Pills. Now, since I have obtained two new un-upgraded ones, if they can be upgraded to Tier 4 andbined with the Sacred Blessing Pill, isnt there a great hope of giving birth to a Tier 4 powerhouse within me?
Thinking excitedly to this point, Leo swallowed his saliva and, without hesitation,menced the upgrade.
Straightaway, the familiar notification sound echoed in his ears.
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Magic Medicine: Rose Gathering Energy Pill has been upgraded to Tier 4 Magic Medicine: Refinement Energy Gathering Pill!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 3 Magic Medicine: Rose Gathering Energy Pill has been upgraded to Tier 4 Magic Medicine: Refinement Energy Gathering Pill!]
Well, both Rose Gathering Energy Pills have been upgraded to Tier 4?
Hearing the prompt, Leo Ray couldnt believe his ears.
He immediately opened the new magic medicines attribute column in his ecstasy.
[Name: Refinement Energy Gathering Pill]
[Grade: Tier 4?Top-quality]
[Effect: Body strengthening, power enhancement]
[Remark: This magic medicine is made of over a century-old Star Falling Rose and many other precious materials.
After taking it, the users strength will permanently increase by one star each time, and the augmentation of physical and magic systems is identical.
When reaching the peak of Tier 3 Nine-Star, there is a certain probability to directly break through to Tier 4, with the highest increase to Tier 4 Nine-Star.]
Does it indeed have the effect of breaking through to Tier 4? Just perfect!
Closing the attribute column, the joy on Leos face was more evident.
Undoubtedly, he may again give birth to two Tier 4 powerhouses under hismand!
Upon realizing this, Leo took a deep breath, trying to calm his excitement, murmuring to himself, At this stage, therere already quite a few Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouses under mymand.
However, among them, the ones who have most significantly contributed to the Territory are no doubt Serena and Ste, who have integrated stealth, concealment, and one-hit-kills.
In addition, due to the reason they share the same heart, if they cooperate with each other, they will undoubtedly unleash a more powerfulbat force than ordinary powerhouses. Moreover, these two girls with identical looks but totally different personalities are the first to be Tier 3 powerhouses in the Territory.
Therefore, regardless of their strength, strategic deployment or tenure, these two are naturally the first choice to be promoted to Tier 4 powerhouses.
Thinking to this point, without any hesitation, Leo immediatelymanded them to hurry back to Cyan Town through Mind Talk.
At this stage, Leo clearly understands the purpose and intentions of Ariel Watsons visiting Cyan Town.
He also learned that they have a respectable trump card. Unless a Tier 5 Powerhousees, there is almost no chance of danger.
Besides that, Leo gained the allegiance of Celeste Reiss, who always stays by Ariel Watsons side, and Gregg, who is in the military camp.
Therefore, it wouldnt influence Cyan Towns situation if Serena and Ste, who were hidden all the time, leave for a while.
Next, having closed the Mind Talk, Leo revitalized his spirit and continued on to the inventory.
As he had finished preparing all small jewelry cases,
Leo began to inspect therger metal boxes.
After a series of investigations, Leo found
that most of these metal boxes contained precious collectibles that didnt actually increase his strength.
Until he opened a smaller light blue metal box, and an unexpected pleasant surprise appeared on his face again.
This time, what dove into Leos sight was a delicate, small purple scroll, faintly emanating a wave of energy.
Naturally, Leo wouldnt be unfamiliar with such an item as he immediately picked it up and carefully examined it in his hand. A skill scroll Judging from the energy wave radiated from it, its obviously from the magic system.
After scrutiny, Leo discovered that
this is a Tier 2 electro magic skill called Double Thunderfall.
Without hesitation, he began to upgrade it immediately.
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Skill Scroll: Double Thunderfall has been upgraded to Tier 3 Skill Scroll: Triple Thunderfall!]
It directly became Triple Thunderfall?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray immediately opened the attribute column of the new skill scroll.
[Name: Triple Thunderfall]
[Tier: 3]
[Description: Thunder property?Group Targeting?Remote?Magic, it is an original Thunder magic created by an Electro Magic Instructor of the Human n. By using a peculiar energy maniptive method, the ordinary Tier 1 Thunderfall skill ispressed and oveid three times consecutively, leading to an extremely impressive might.
In addition, the Magic Master who created this skill was the inventor of the Double Thunderfall.]
Not bad at all. Lets start learning.
Closing the attribute panel, Leo smiled slightly, and the brand-new Skill Scroll reappeared in his hand.
Following that, he directly sat cross-legged on the ground, pouring a magic energy strand into it, and began to study.
The next second, an overwhelming amount of unfamiliar information flooded into Leos brain.
After a while, rubbing his slightly aching head, Leo slowly opened his eyes, revealing a smile of sudden enlightenment.
This round of study was immensely beneficial for Leo.
Not only did he master the casting method of the Triple Thunderfall,
he also learned the casting methods of ordinary Thunderfall and Double Thunderfall.
Its like learning three Thunder Magic skills from one Skill Scroll!
Although the ordinary Thunderfall and Double Thunderfall are much weaker, they are simpler and quicker to cast, each with its own merits. I should certainly practice them thoroughly.
Delighted, Leo pulled himself together, stood up from the ground, and proceeded to check other items.
Not long after,
A flush of utter surprise rose again on his face.
Chapter 417 - 338: New Trump Cards and New Plans【5K】_1
Chapter 417: Chapter 338: New Trump Cards and New ns5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
What caught Leo Rays eyes this time were two neatly stacked light gray silk cloaks.
Upon closer inspection, these things were as thin as cicada wings and felt slightly cool to the touch. A faintyer of mist surrounded them, giving off a dreamlike, illusory feeling.
Of course, Leo Ray was no stranger to cloaks of this magical material, as they were among the items he frequently used.
Two brand new Invisibility Cloaks, huh
After inspecting the attribute column with joy, Leo Ray fell into deep thought.
All this time, such items that couldpletely conceal his form had been of great help to him, whether in concealing his strength or in spying on his opponents. Unless one was a Tier 5 Powerhouse, it was impossible to see through the illusion.
Moreover, the cloaks had the added function of hiding some of their aura, which was quite nice.
Although there was still the possibility of being detected by keen-sensed enemies or stronger opponents, the odds would undoubtedly be lowered by using the Concealment Ring Kelsey had provided at Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference.
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and continued to ponder.
Previously, the Invisibility Cloaks he had acquired were all upgraded from Illusion Cloaks.
He obtained three during the Cyan Town Sanders Trading Conference and three more during the Viennas City Sanders Trading Conference.
Worth mentioning was a cloak blessed by Penelope Welbourn, which achievedplete concealment of aura and was currently in the hands of the temporarily absent Jasper Richardson.
Additionally, Serena and Ste each had one.
Consequently, Leo Ray only had the three cloaks he obtained during the second acquisition.
At this moment, his face couldnt help but reveal a hint of excitement, and he fell into contemtion once more.
Compared to Illusion Cloaks that could only change appearances, the applications of Invisibility Cloaks were much more extensive.
If they could be equipped in mass quantities for middle team-sized units, they would undoubtedly be an invisible, deadly weapon.
One can imagine how fascinating the enemys expressions would be when an elite middle team suddenly appeared in their vulnerable territory to cause chaos,
Of course, equipping the about-to-deploy Shadow Squadron spies stationed across Coldme with the Concealment Rings as well is another excellent option.
Having considered this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate to store the two thin cloaks in his bag and began upgrading them.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Cloak: Invisibility Cloak has been upgraded to Tier 4 Cloak: Invisibility Cloak x 102!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Cloak: Invisibility Cloak has been upgraded to Tier 4 Cloak: Invisibility Cloak x 103!]
A total of 205, huh? Not bad at all, with these my tactical options will undoubtedly be even richer!
Amidst excitement, Leo Ray rolled up his somewhat loose sleeves again.
Just as he was about to continue inspecting the remaining few metal boxes, there was a gentle knock on the door from outside.
Looks like it should be the return of the Serena and Ste sisters.
Raising an eyebrow slightly, Leo Ray strode forward and opened the door to the Lords Office.
The next second, as expected, two identical, familiar pale faces appeared before Leo Rays eyes.
Seeing the twin sisters, who were only slightly shorter than Leo Ray himself, with their clean and neat bob hairstyles and wearing ck outfits,
Although their delicate faces were exactly the same, Leo Ray could still easily tell them apart.
The more spirited and outgoing one, who excelled in long-range sniping, was Serena, the younger sister.
And the one with somewhat evasive eyes and an introverted personality, who excelled in close-range assassination, was Ste, the elder sister.
Greetings, Lord!
The twins bowed and lowered their heads deeply toward Leo Ray as their crisp voices rang out.
Youve worked hardtely.
Leo Ray smiled as he gestured for the twins not to be overly formal.
Lord, you are too kind.
Seeing Serena hurriedly wave her hand in response, she said, These are all just part of our duties; its no big deal.
Ste also nodded in agreement.
In any case, Ive been very satisfied with your performance during this period. So, consider these items as my encouragement for the two of you.
After patting the girls heads, Leo Rays heart stirred, and four fragrant pills appeared in his palm.
At that moment, a refreshing fragrance spread from Leo Rays hand.
On the other side, while gazing at the magic medicine disyed by Leo Ray, the expressions of Serena and Ste changed from initial surprise to barely suppressed shock.
From the extraordinary energy fluctuations emanating from these smooth, round magic medicines, one could tell that they contained enormous power.
This immense power was undoubtedly the most powerful the sisters had ever seen in their lives! Even Tier 3 Rose Gathering Energy Pills paled inparison, as evident from this observation.
Realizing this, the twins unconsciously swallowed their saliva as they smelled the exotic fragrance wafting from Leo Rays palm and felt shocked.

Trantor: 549690339
These are two Refinement Energy Gathering Pills and two Sacred Blessing Pills, both of which are Tier 4.
Looking at Serena and Stes astonished expressions, Leo Ray smiled indifferently and began to exin, Refinement Energy Gathering Pills have the same effect as Rose Gathering Energy Pills: permanently increasing your star power by one. Of course, they can also help you break through your constraints and step into the threshold of Tier 4 Powerhouses.
As he spoke, Leo Ray ced the magic medicine into their palms and continued, Sacred Blessing Pills, on the other hand, nourish and strengthen your meridians and stabilize your spirit for a period of time. This will help you better advance to the Tier 4 level, since the difficulty of bing a Tier 4 Powerhouse is far greater than that of a Tier 3 Powerhouse.
Serena and Ste, after being momentarily taken aback, finally showed ecstatic expressions on their lovely faces.
Its important to note that because of theplicated refining process, extremely limited sess rate, and extremely rare materials, Tier 4 magic pills are incredibly valuablealmost equal in value to Tier 5 Nation-Guarding Divine Weapons.
And the Lords generosity of giving each of them two such pills was indeed astounding and overwhelmingly exciting.
More importantly, bing a Tier 4 Powerhouse is undoubtedly the lifelong goal of all Tier 3 Powerhouses.
However, few Tier 3 Powerhouses, despite their lifelong efforts and relentless pursuit, could ultimately achieve this levelit was as rare as a phoenixs feather or a unicorns horn.
But as Leo Ray had said, with these pills, Serena and Ste almost immediately gained the qualifications to step into the realm of Tier 4 Powerhouses!
Without hesitation and filled with joy, Serena and Ste once again knelt on one knee and deeply bowed their heads to Leo Ray. Overwhelmed with excitement, their bodies trembled slightly as they thanked him.
Alright, go and cultivate now,
After helping them up, Leo Ray smiled and said, By the way, your residence will be the same as Taylors, on the second floor of the Lords Mansion. Ill take you there now.
After settling down the overjoyed Serena and Ste, Leo Ray returned to the Lords Office and began looking at the remaining metal boxes.
I wonder if there will be any more extraordinary treasures?
With a slight eyebrow raise, Leo Ray rolled up his sleeves once more.
Upon further inspection, he noticed that most of the boxes contained ordinary valuables with nothing particrly special.
It was not until Leo Ray opened thest, unassuming ck metal box that he found something of interest: a row of neatly arranged, intricately designed scrolls of various colors, shining in an array of dazzling lights that were almost too much for the eye to take in.
However, he could tell from the faint colors emanating from the scrolls that they were not skill scrolls, but rather magic scrolls sealed with some kind of spell which could be instantly released.
Five in total?
As Leo Ray browsed through the attribute columns of the scrolls, he murmured, Not bad. Four Tier 3 and one Tier 4 scrolls, almost all of them are offensive magic scrolls.
He continued, Of the four Tier 3 scrolls, there is the Earth Spear Array for Earth attribute, the Raging Waves Sword for Water attribute, the Whirlwind Flying de for Wind attribute, and the Ice Ring Binding for Ice attribute. The Tier 4 scroll is the Fire Phoenix Exhtion for the Fire attribute.
Without any hesitation, Leo Ray began upgrading the scrolls.
[Congrattions! Your Tier 3 Magic Scroll: Earth Spear Array has been upgraded to Tier 4 Magic Scroll: Earth Splitting Thousand Spears!]
[Congrattions! Your Tier 3 Magic Scroll: Whirlwind Flying de has been upgraded to Tier 4 Magic Scroll: Wind Demon Strangtion!]
[Congrattions! Your Tier 4 Magic Scroll: Fire Phoenix Exhtion has been upgraded to Tier 5 Magic Scroll: Fury of the me Dragon!]
Upon hearing the series of prompt messages and feeling a sense of joy, Leo Ray pondered, Of the four Tier 3 magic scrollsthose of the Earth and Wind attributes have been upgraded to Tier 4.
The other two have turned into more than 100 Whats even more surprising is that the Tier 4 Fire attribute magic scroll has directly be a Tier 5 scroll!
With this thought, a smile of delight crossed Leo Rays face.
Before this, he already possessed three magic scrolls: Tier 3 offensive Advanced me Burst Bomb and Dark Light Burst, as well as the healing Light Healing Skill.
However, since all of these magical scrolls were Tier 3, their damage against Tier 4 or higher Powerhouses would undoubtedly be very weak.
This time, Leo Ray not only acquired two Tier 4 offensive magic scrolls, but also a more advanced Tier 5 magic scroll!
With these scrolls, even when facing Tier 4 or even Tier 5 Powerhouses, I now have the power tounch attacks that will make my opponents wary, acting as a hidden trump card.
After all, the other great advantage of magic scrolls is that they dont require any casting time and can be directly released, causing unexpectedly powerful damage!

Chapter 419: Chapter 338: New Trump Cards and New ns5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray continued to leisurely think.
The production of magical scrolls was not onlyplicated, but also time-consuming and prolonged.
Even the materials used for the scrolls themselves were incredibly difficult to produce and required careful attention to theirpatibility with the sealed magic.
Moreover, mages who sealed corresponding spells were at risk of magical bacsh, making the value and rarity of a magical scroll even more expensive than an equipment of the same tier.
Therefore, although these powerful items that could release magic instantaneously were very convenient, they could not be used on arge scale.
Of course, for me, this is not a problem.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray revealed a slight smile and stretched his body.
So far, the items he had gained from Dragons Lair had all been sorted out.
As for those ordinary valuables, Ill leave them entirely to Linda to deal with. The rebuilding and reinforcement of the walls of Ma Town and Cyan Town will require a lot of Gold Dragons to support.
With this, the financial issue can be perfectly solved.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray waved his hand, and the vast Lords Office returned to its original state.
Next, seeing that it was gettingte, Leo Ray did not rush to rest but instead left his office and came to the reception hall on the first floor of the Mansion.
Afterward, he called Scarlet over and handed her the Tier 5 Magic Staff Element Dance directly.
On the other hand, the surprise in Scarlets eyes didnt need to be mentioned.
She even took out a big piece of cream cake, which she had bought along the way from Cyan Town in the evening, and insisted on sharing it with the Lord. She would not be happy until it was finished.
As expected, this earned her a scolding from Leo Ray.
Then, Leo Ray called over Bianca White and Belinda Wright, who still had not reached the Tier 3 Nine-Star level, and gave them each a Rose Gathering Energy Pill to practice well.
Last but not least, he took the days ten Qi Condensing Pills from Orion Wolfe and Joshua Bingaman and sessfully upgraded to 500 Qi Condensing Pills and five Rose Gathering Energy Pills.
Joshua, Orion, I have some questions for you.
After all this was done, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and asked the two of them about Giant Axe General Burt and Holy Light General Joshuas matters.
He detailed his arrangements during this period and his next ns.
Undoubtedly, ording to the next n, he should try to win over these two Kingdom Generals.
Of course, Leo Ray was also well aware.
Although these two Kingdom Generals, who stood on the same front with Ariel Watson, were now in a difficult situation and unable to mobilize their troops-
their status within the Coldme Kingdom was still considered influential, and they were both Tier 4 Senior Powerhouses themselves.
So, it was essential to make full preparations.
Facing him and hearing his questions,
Joshua was astonished for a while before responding while ying with her smooth, waist-length hair, My Lord, as far as I know, Giant Axe General Burt does note from the Coldme Kingdoms orthodox nobility.
Therefore, although he has been fighting for Coldme for decades and has made many contributions, he is not well-received by other Kingdom Generals. As for his specific origins, I do not know.
I see, Leo Ray replied thoughtfully. It seems that to fully understand this powerful old general, we have to start investigating his background.
On the other side, Orion stroked her fluffy short hair and spoke with a salute, Reporting to My Lord, I have some understanding about Holy Light General Joshua as well.
If my memory serves me correctly, hees from a count family of the Coldme Kingdom, just like Joshua and me. Shortly after graduating from the Royal Noble Academy, he started working on the battlefield as a middle team leader.
Back then, due to his fearlessness, he was not only famous among the Coldme Kingdom but also among the opponents. After nearly ten years, he umted military merits and finally reached the position of a Kingdom General.
It seems that both of them have quite a legendary background.
Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and asked again, Orion, do you have any other information about Joshua?
My Lord, I have little knowledge about other matters.
After thinking for a moment, Orions eyes lit up as she replied, However, My Lord, there is a Defense Army Battalion Commander in my familys fiefdom, Mystara City, who used to be in Holy Light General Joshuasmand. I believe she might have more clues.
Understood.
After hearing this, Leo Ray pondered for a while and then said, Recently, I n to visit the fiefdoms of your and Joshuas families.
We must prepare for ourrge-scale operations in the future. In that case, lets go to Mystara City first tomorrow.
Yes, My Lord!
On the other side, Orions delicate face showed joy.
She nodded repeatedly, Its been quite a long time since Ive been home. Im sure my family will be thrilled to see the My Lord!
Well talk about the specifics tomorrow morning.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and smiled faintly.
Through their previous understanding, he had already learned-
that Orions fiefdom, Mystara City, was located southwest of Viennas City. Although it was quite far away-
the journey would take him no more than a little over three hours.
Plus, when returning, he could use the Returning Crystal. So it was rtively convenient.
Just like that, when Joshua and Orion left-
Leo Ray refreshed himself and started heading upstairs to check on Serena and Stes progress.
A short whileter, just as he stepped into the corridor of the second floor of the Mansion-
two bursts of formidable energy erupted from Serena and Stes residence almost simultaneously, setting off a strong wave of energy.
Did they both seed in advancing?
Noticing this, a look of surprise appeared on Leo Rays face.

On the other hand, sensing the extraordinary energy fluctuation, Taylor and others in different rooms also came out of their doors one after another. Upon seeing Leo Ray, they immediately bowed in respect.
At the same time, Serena and Ste, who were emitting strong energy fluctuations, had already moved and appeared directly in front of Leo Ray.
Then, they both kneeled on one knee and said, We did not disappoint Lords expectations, we have sessfully entered the Tier 4 Powerhouse threshold!
Very good.
Looking at the delighted faces of the twin sisters, Leo Ray smiled slightly, helped them up one after another, and then opened their attribute columns.
[Name: Serena]
[upation: Assassin]
[Rank: Tier 4 One Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Silent Interception Active (Ranged physical single target attack)]
[Skill 2: Invisible Sniper Active (Use invisible energy arrows to perform ranged physical single target attacks, with an attached blinding effect)]
[Skill 3: Shadow Stealth Passive (Increase movement speed, making the target difficult to detect)]
[Skill 4: Crossbow Mastery Passive (When using a crossbow, increases damage moderately)]

[Skill 4: Dagger Mastery Passive (When using daggers, increases damage moderately)]
Not bad, just like when Scarlett advanced, youve both added a new skill, right?
Nodding satisfiedly, a smile of joy appeared on Leo Rays face.
Up till now, the number of Tier 4 powerhouses under hismand had surged to four!
Thank you so much, Lord! Before this, although I had mastered the use of invisible energy arrows, my limited strength prevented me from using them effectively. Now, I can finally use them!
Right in front, enthusiasm filled Serenas face.
M..me too!
On the side, Stes face was also flushed from excitement as she nodded continuously.
Keep up the good work, and I believe it wont be long before your strength will further improve.
Hearing this, Leo Ray smiled slightly, and began contemting in his heart.
So far, Ariel and her team havent fully dealt with the situation, so we cant rule out the possibility that Cyan Town has already been infiltrated by the princes spies.
In addition, the Eye of Insight barrier around the Lords Mansion of Cyan Town is still being set up and adjusted by mages like Daisy Sasha, and has not yet been officially put into use.
Therefore, apart from Linda and Mason Banks at Tier 3 peak level, Rhizoma Drynariae at Tier 3 senior powerhouse level, the four Defense Army battalionmanders at the normal Tier 3 level, and great swordsmen like Aaron Bard, Cyan Town still needs Tier 4 powerhouses to be stationed at this stage, so that I can carry out other actions with peace of mind.
Thinking of this, Leo Rays gaze fell on the twin sisters before him.
Without a doubt, thebined efforts of Serena and Ste can obviously exert a more formidable fighting power than two ordinary Tier 4 powerhouses. Naturally, we cannot separate the deployment of the two.
Furthermore, their upations and abilities are better suited for hiding in Cyan Town as an unexpected powerful trump card. In that case, lets bring Gideon ck back first, and just let Serena and Ste continue to guard Cyan Town for the time being.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray shared his arrangements with the twin sisters in front of him.
Please rest assured, Lord! We will do our best to share your worries!
On the other side, crisp voices rang out as Serena and Ste clenched their fists and spoke in unison.
Well done.
Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray seemed to think of something else, waved his hand, and called Taylor who was beside him.
Next, after testing with Taylor at full perception, Leo Ray discovered that
After advancing to the Tier 4 level, Serena and Ste, who were already good at stealth and concealment,
With the addition of invisibility cloaks that could slightly conceal their breath, and vanishing rings that could greatly conceal their breath, under the threefold effect,
Even Taylor, a Tier 5 powerhouse, could not grasp their whereabouts.
Not bad, not bad. In this way, even when facing other Tier 5 powerhouses, Serena and Ste can move more freely.
Seeing this, an expression of surprise appeared on Leo Rays face.
After the tests were over,
Serena and Ste returned to Cyan Town and used their respective storage rings to bring back some ordinary valuables that Leo Ray had obtained from King West, handing them to Linda to be used as funds.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray returned to the Lords Office and began to collect todays output of copper ingots.
Afterpleting all of this, feeling tiredness creep in, Leo Ray didnt do anything else and went straight to his spacious and bright bedroom.
I have to say, today was such a fulfilling day.
After freshening up and lying on the soft bed, Leo Ray couldnt help but sigh.

First of all, a new Wyvern Knight Squad was recruited without wyverns, which goes without saying.
After that, not only did they conveniently solve the crisis in Ma Town, sessfully bringing back the trapped residents of Cyan Town and Maid Celestes family, but they also managed to take control of the entire town by winning over the two brothers Nathan and Ned.
As a result, this small town rich in ore production became the third town under Leo Rays rule.
This Ma Town is now perfectly connected with Cyan Town and Mn Town further to the south, forming aplete defensive line that further guarantees the safety of the western part of the territory, Leo Ray pondered as he put the sparkling Light Crystal Stone on the bedside table into the Space Bracelet, leaving the roompletely dark.
Next, he went to Mn Town with Xenia ckwood.
He sessively took control of the two Defense Armymanders and Be White in Mn Town, fully stabilizing the town, and even conducting a full-scale makeover for all its members, further enhancing the overallbat power of Mn Town.
In addition, I have also achieved my main goal for today, which is to recruit Celeste Reiss and Gregg, who are close to Ariel Watson, thought Leo Ray as he felt his eyelids grow heavy and tightened the feather quilt around him, falling into deep thought again. However, the most important thing is of course what I saw and heard in the underground city of Dragons Lair in Coldme Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, Hero King Caesar, who single-handedly created the entire Coldme Kingdom hundreds of years ago, turned out to be a traveler from the Summer Realm like Leo Ray.
Realizing this, Leo Rays expression became more solemn: Furthermore, there are the things that King West mentioned, and even the unreachable gods. It seems that my adventures and conquests in this world have just begun, and I still have to find new wyverns for Sean and the others as mounts
As Leo Ray pondered about this, his breathing gradually grew even and calm.
The next day, early in the morning, when the moon was still high in the sky and the sun had not yet fully risen, a well-rested Leo Ray yawned and sat up from the bed.
Ever since yesterday morning, I havent heard the sound of the orioles
Could it be that the new Sky Guardians patrolling the sky have scared away these cute little creatures? he wondered, slightly pouting his lips.
With a flick of the mind, a Rose Gathering Energy Pill with a strange fragrance appeared in Leo Rays palm, and he threw it back into his mouth to start his daily routine of cultivation.
While concentrating on his meditation, the focused Leo Ray quickly and proficiently refined the Tier 3 Magic Medicine in the pill perfectly, allowing the physical energy vortex in his body to be filled to a new level once again.
At this point, Leo Ray didnt hesitate.
He snapped his fingers again and sent another Rose Gathering Energy Pill into his mouth.
Only when Leo Ray reopened his eyes did a light blue energy simr in color to the magic energy vortex emerge from his pupils, vanishing after a moment.
This undoubtedly meant that Leo Rays magic power had also been greatly enhanced.
After exhaling a breath of turbid air, he felt refreshed and opened his Attribute Column.
Name: Leo Ray
ID: 0013076067
upation: Lord
Rank: Physical: Tier 3 Seven-Star, Magic: Tier 3 Two-Star
Talent: Golden Finger Lv: 1
Skills: Thunderfall Magic Tier 1, Double Thunderfall Magic Tier 2, Triple Thunderfall Magic Tier 3, Whale Fall Thunder Explosion Magic Tier 3, Frightening sh Physics Tier 3, Mirage Illusion Skill Universal Illusion Tier 4
Not bad, not bad. Each has steadily increased by one star, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction. He then hopped off the bed and began washing up.
After a while, a refreshed Leo Ray walked out of the bedroom door and went straight to the Lords Office not far away.
It was now time to im the Recruitment Order for the day.
At this moment, a contemtive expression inadvertently appeared on Leo Rays face.
He pondered in his heart, Since my next goal is to recruit two Tier 4 Kingdom Generals, I must have a Tier 4 Recruitment Order as a prerequisite. The only way to obtain a Tier 4 Recruitment Order at the moment is to upgrade from a Tier 2 Recruitment Order. However, this possibility is not high, so the best approach would be to umte arge number of Tier 2 Recruitment Orders.
With this in mind, Leo Ray did not hesitate.
He took three Tier 2 Recruitment Orders directly, preparing to upgrade them all at onceter.
Afterward, Leo Ray went down the spacious stone steps to the first floor of the hall.
At this time, the four maids, led by Old Steward Warren Dexter, were cleaning the hall.
The scene made Leo Ray bbergasted once again.
One of the maids, named Ynda Scott, was a Water Flow Mage with short, lovely hair. She used a partial water magic spell simr to tidal waves to quickly clean the floor. The rapid water flow left the ground spotless without moving any furniture or items, looking quite magical.
Behind Ynda was another maid named ya Lewis, a long-haired beauty and a Wind Mage.

Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, she was surrounded by several small tornadoes, drying the water stains left by Ynda Scott at an extremely fast speed.
This Anemo Magic, although spinning extremely fast, did not suck in the surrounding objects, which was quite peculiar.
As for the other two lovely physical maids, they each held a dry cloth in their hands, finishing up the final touch-up work at a speed beyond humanprehension.
Their figures flickered so much that they even left afterimages, making Leo Ray feel dizzy.
No wonder they clean the room so spotlessly.
After being stunned for a moment, Leo Ray couldnt help butugh in resignation, secretly pondering in his heart, Is this the working style of Tier 3 maids It can only be described as shocking.
Just as Leo Ray saw this,
on the other side, Warren Dexter, with his meticulouslybed white hair and dressed in a ck tailcoat, hurriedly came forward, bowed and greeted, Good morning, my Lord. I have just brewed the tea.
Todays breakfast is sweet fruit jam with cream cheese croissant, puff pastry with cream, sd floss bread, and hot milk. May I ask where the Lord would like to have his mealter?
Same as usual, eating with you guys outside.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray took a sip of hot tea, then strode away from the Lords Mansion.
At this time, the azure sky was already bright.
The two newly rising suns,rge and small, emitted warm red morning light, driving away most of the outdoor mist.
The still slightly chilly morning breeze, mixed with the aroma of concrete, refreshed Leo Rays spirit.
Immediately after, a chorus of neat and loud slogans, apanied by a series of uniform footsteps and the shing sounds of armor, entered Leo Rays ears.
Looking at the eight Tier 2 soldiers who were exercising in the morning, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Then he went straight to the main entrance of the territory, ready to experiment with the three lightning magic he had learned the day before.
When he got in front of a big tree, a slight idea shed across Leo Rays mind.
A wooden staff with ancient charm and brilliant colors suddenly appeared in his palm. It was the Tier 5 Nature Staff he had just obtained yesterday.
Lets start with the Tier 1 Thunderfall.
Taking a deep breath, Leo Ray slowly raised the staff, and ording to the spellcasting method deeply engraved in his mind, he began to cast this ordinary Tier 1 magic.
Immediately after, a powerful magic force swept out from the Magic Energy Vortex in his abdomen and fully concentrated at the top of the staff.
At the same time, a purple Hexagram Magic Array with a diameter of about half a meter unfolded at the top of the ancient staff.
Boom!
The next second, apanied by the roar of a thunderbolt,
a purple light suddenly came from the sky, striking directly at the tree, instantly raising thick dust.
A momentter, when the dust had settled,
sniffing the slightly burnt taste, Leo Ray noticed,
the trunk of this five or six-meter tall and half-meter thick tree had beenpletely split in half, emitting ck smoke.
However, the rest of the trunk remained undamaged.
It seemed that the attack range of this Tier 1 magic was quite limited.
Not bad, since I have already reached the level of Tier 3 Magic powerhouses, plus the assistance of the Tier 5 staff that is considered a National Guardian Divine Weapon, casting this ordinary Tier 1 magic has almost reached the level of instant casting without chanting, right?Seeing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldnt help but show a satisfied expression.
Although the damage and attack range of this Tier 1 magic is extremely limited, it is undoubtedly more than enough to deal with ordinary Tier 1 soldiers.
Combined with the long attack distance and the ability tounch almost instantly.
Therefore, as long as he practices more to make the spell more urate, it would be a decent attack method for him at the moment.
Immediately after, without hesitation, Leo Ray chose a new target and began casting the Double Thunderfall Skill.
This time, as the purple hexagram magic array at the top of the magic wand lit up again, the incantation from Leo Rays mouth echoed with it.
About three secondster, a thunderfall with a noticeably greater momentum struck directly at the target tree under Leo Rays will.
Boom!
After a while, when Leo Rays vision became clear again.
He noticed that the entire tree, simr in size to the previous one, had turnedpletely ck, and the branches looked bare, obviously suffering significant damage.
I see, it is indeed much stronger than the Tier 1 Thunderfall. However, the difficulty of casting has also increased.
At this moment, Leo Ray, who was slightly panting after casting two spells in a row, smiled faintly and continued to ponder in his heart, After all, this is my first time casting Tier 2 magic.
Whether in the mobilization of magic power or its use, I am quite inexperienced. If I be proficient, I believe that instant casting would not be an impossible task.
At the same time, Leo Ray noticed.
Due to the increasing intensity, Taylor, Scarlett, Gideon ck, who just returned, and other main powerhouses gathered around curiously. Seeing Leo Rays attention, they all bowed their heads in salute.
Well, lets start casting the Triple Thunderfall Skill.
Smiling faintly at the strong people next to him, Leo Ray once again calmed his mind, squinted his eyes, and raised the magic wand in his hand.
In an instant, apanied by a series of obscure incantations.
Arge amount of magic power surged out of the magic vortex in his abdomen.
Then, it all concentrated at the top of the wand, quickly forming a slowly rotating hexagram magic array.
As a result, the surrounding air rippled withyers of energy waves.
Along with Leo Rays increasingly high-pitched incantation, the magic array in front of him began to spin faster and faster.
At the same time, a thickyer of dark clouds began to gather above the third target tree out of thin air.
Inside, lightning shed and magic power surged, clearly umting a powerful force.
After a moment, when Leo Ray opened his eyes again and swung down the wooden magic wand in his hand.
Boom!
A deafening thunderp sounded.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, a giant purple beam of light fell from the sky, striking the target tree directly.
For a moment, as the electric light surged.
Dust and sand flew, creating an astonishing momentum.
At the same time, the surrounding subordinates all showed surprised expressions, continuously eximing in amazement.
It seemed that the lord with rapidly improving strength had mastered another remarkable spell!

Trantor: 549690339
A momentter, when the dust cleared, Leo Ray noticed.
Under the dual enhancement of his Tier 3 Two-Star magic power and the Tier 5 Nature Wand,
The targeted tree hadpletely disappeared, leaving only a pile of charred residue on the ground, still emitting wisps of smoke.
Well, thats quite destructive.
Seeing this, a touch of surprise and delight appeared on Leo Rays face.
After all, this was his first time casting this spell, and many aspects were still unfamiliar. The damage it caused was already beyond expectation.
Leo Ray put the Nature Staff back into the Space Bracelet, turned around, made a gesture for his subordinates to return, and continued thinking.
Compared to the Whale Fall Thunder Explosion, a Tier 3 lightning spell, the power of the Triple Thunderfall Spell was clearly much stronger.
However, as one of the Winged Races dragon-ying magic spells, the Whale Fall Thunder Explosion had special damage bonuses against Dragon and Sub-Dragon races.
Moreover, it had a paralyzing effect, making it quite versatile.
As Leo Ray thought about this, he had already returned to his territory with Taylor and others under the respectful salutes of the heavy armored guards at the main entrance.
At this time, the territory was already filled with the aroma of food.
The fragrance of freshly baked bread, mixed with the scent of sweet cream and cheese, constantly assaulted Leo Rays nostrils.
No wonder he is a Tier 3 Powerhouse level chef; the aroma of this bread alone is enough to make people drool.
Raising an eyebrow, Leo Ray, d in soft Tier 4 leather armor, touched his slightly shriveled belly, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily.
Beside him, Scarlett and Bianca White both blinked their big eyes, their faces full of anticipation.
Since arranging these two girls to live together, why does Bianca seem to be slowly influenced by Scarlett, and start liking sweets too? You know, this fellow is a meat-loving werewolf.
With a slight smirk, Leo Ray went directly to the location of the kitchen in the southeast corner of his territory.
At this moment, Leo Ray noticed:
The spacious stone kitchen had been fully built, with an area of at least two hundred square meters.
Soon after, apanied by Head Chef Rudy Blues, Leo Ray stepped inside.
In the spacious and bright room, a row of neatly stacked smokeless stoves lined up.
On the other side, there was a whole row ofrge baking equipment, and various shiny kitchen utensils and tableware were readily avable, looking clean and tidy.
Moreover, in the room, several recessed spaces built with stones were equipped with slowly rotating sewage treatment magic arrays.
Very nice.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction to Rudy Blues.
After all, this kitchens location was carefully selected by Leo Ray.
It was conveniently close to the food warehouse in the southeast corner of the territory, making it easy to transport ingredients back and forth.
With this, the construction of the first logistical support building in the territory was perfectlypleted.
Alright, lets have a meal.
Walking out of the spacious kitchen, Leo Ray saw that the eight elite squad soldiers had already finished their morning exercises and nodded slightly.
Soon after, under the hustle and bustle of Old Steward Warren Dexter and several pretty maids,
Steaming hot, mouth-watering dishes appeared one after another in front of Leo Ray, who was sitting on a pic mat.
Looking at the delicately ted bread and pastries in front of him, Leo Ray did not hesitate to start eating heartily.
During this process, Leo Ray called Gideon ck, who had just returned from Cyan Town, to dine together and further inquire about Ariel Watson.
When he learned that the Fifth Princess of Coldme, who usually lived in the City Lord Mansion, had a peculiar hobby of knitting sweaters,
This fact made Leo Ray bothugh and cry.
Oh right, Gideon, take these.
Next, Leo Ray handed over a storage ring and numerous magic medicines and magical scrolls meant for his main subordinates to Gideon, a Tier 4 muscr priest who had been stationed in Cyan Town.
Thank you very much, Lord!
On the other side, overjoyed, Gideon put down his fork and knife, stood up immediately, and respectfully saluted Leo Ray.
At this moment, Gideons heart was filled with various thoughts.
It must be said that after this period of tempering, the lord in front of him had made significant progress not only in strength but also in terms of other aspects such as foundation.
And this rate of growth could only be described as terrifying!
With this in mind, Gideon pushed up his sses, making the lenses reflect a dazzling light, and continued to think.
However, with formidable enemies lurking around and an unknown mysterious organization stirring in the shadows,
The road ahead for the territory still had a long way to go.
But as long as they followed the Lords footsteps, they believed that the days ahead would be even more exciting, right?
At the moment when Gideon was feeling somewhat invigorated,
On the other side, Leo Ray first threw a piece of creamy puff pastry dipped in jam into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it,
Then, he used Mind Talk to contact Finn Stanley, the werewolf n chief stationed three kilometers east of the territory.

Thanks to the Qi Condensing Pills obtained from King West yesterday and the concoction of Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe over the past two days.
This Tier 2 Magic Drug, which can permanently enhance strength, has now been stocked by Leo Ray up to a whopping 1800 pills.
Currently, all Leo Rays direct subordinates including eight organized soldiers squads and a farmer squad have reached the Tier Second level of strength.
Meanwhile, in the Werewolf Tribes station, there are five ordinary Tier 1 Werewolf Warrior Squads.
These fast-moving werewolf warriors, whose assault capabilities are even on par with light cavalry, are naturally the best candidates for the next promotion to Tier Second.
After observing the overview of the Snow Feather Tribe, I noticed that the strength of these over 500 Werewolf Tribe soldiers is between Tier 1 Five-star and Tier 1 Nine-Star.
Therefore, 1500 Qi Condensing Pills can increase the number of elite Tier Second soldier squads under mymand by 5.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray immediately asked Finn Stanley to go with Lucas Harper and the other three Werewolf Tribe elders to the location of the territory, and asked Bianca White to go and meet them.
Greetings, my Lord!
Within minutes, four Tier 3 powerhouses from the Werewolf Tribe appeared before Leo Ray, bowing their heads deeply.
At this time, because it was the first time for all four of them to enter the territory.
So, they were immediately captivated by the two brilliant miracle buildings, the Lords Mansion like a small castle.
And theughing and cheerful subordinates around them, it took a good while for them to return to their senses.
Moreover, there was an irresistible reverence in their eyes when they looked at Leo Ray, and they wagged their white tails excitedly.
With such a powerful Lord to back them up, they, who had once been wantonly hunted by the Half-Orcs, would never have to fear anything from now on!
Youve all been working hard recently.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray had Warren Dexter serve up some top-notch, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside steaks, indicating they could taste them.
Later, he was inspired to give each of them a storage ring, a total of 1500 Qi Condensing Pills, and 500 Tier 2 healing Magic Medicines.
For a moment, looking at the small, ornate boxes piled up around them, Finn Stanley and the others holding the steaks simply couldnt believe their eyes, and once again they fell into a daze.
Next, Leo Ray informed Finn Stanley and the others of his ns, called the other squadmanders, and made introductions to each other.
After all, the Werewolf Tribes station was only 3 kilometers away from the territory, and they would certainly be moving around frequently in the future.
Thus, Leo Ray, who had finished eating and drinking and had sent Finn Stanley and the others away.
Immediately gathered all the main subordinates and squadmanders in the hall of the Lords Mansion and began to make work arrangements for today.
Gentlemen, the main work in the territory today remains the construction of the city wall and city gates.
Looking at the neatly standing subordinates at the bottom of the table, Leo Ray, sitting on the throne, nodded slightly and said, In the past period, you have all performed very well. When everything ispletely finished.
I will hold a grand banquet, let Rudy and the others go full st, use top-grade ingredients to reward everyone.
Rest assured, my Lord, I will do my utmost!
On the other side, themanders of each squad couldnt help but reveal a bit of delight and immediately bowed in response.
Undoubtedly, the culinary skills of Rudy and the other five chefs were well-known, reaching the level of princes and nobles in every meal.
Plus the highest-grade ingredients At the thought of this, a certain girl on the side who had just eaten up began to produce saliva uncontrobly.
Rudy, you and Gavin Sullivans Farmer Squad, and Seans Pterosaur Knight Squad, besides perfecting the kitchen, can start building the dining hall.
Saying this, Leo Ray first signaled for Rudy toe forward, then with a sh of mind, he handed over several ready-made construction blueprints for [Half-Elf Arch-shaped Longhouse] into his hands.
He continued, This arch-shaped stone longhouse is quiterge, it has enough space for two squads of soldiers to dine at the same time, then all you need to do is a simple transformation.
Yes, my Lord!
On the other side, as Rudy epted the blueprint, he bowed and responded.
Well done.
Leo Ray nodded slightly, his dark eyes shifted and fell on the delicate-faced, long-haired Alchemist beside him, and then continued, Joshua, your task is still to concoct Qi Condensing Pills.

Trantor: 549690339
At this point, Leo Ray paused for a moment and continued: Of course, I always keep the situation of your Firsdale City in mind. If there is any change again, be sure to inform me at the first moment.
Thank you very much, Lord!
On the other side, a look of gratitude appeared on Joshua Bingamans fair cheeks, and he bowed deeply to Leo Ray.
As for Orion Wolfe
Next, Leo Rays gaze fell on another short-haired, pretty alchemist, and he smiled slightly: Naturally, he will go with me to your territory, Mystara City.
Yes, Lord!
Hearing this, Orion Wolfe, who had already dressed in a neat golden outfit, nodded quickly.
The other powerhouses will go with me to Mystara City as before.
After finishing speaking, Leo Ray stood up from the throne and nodded to Taylor and Gideon ck and others.
Yes, Lord!
On the other side, Taylor and the others bowed their fists together and shouted in unison.
Alright, you can all go back and get ready. A brand-new day has begun.
Waving his hand slightly, Leo Ray moved his muscles while signaling everyone to disperse.
So, in about ten minutes, Leo Ray, who had brought the 24 Earth Guardians back into his fold, and the powerhouses who were ready to set off, came to the small gate to the west of his territory.
At this moment, those standing around him were Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, Orion Wolfe, Abigail, Amelia, and Bianca White.
Among them, there is no need to say much about Taylor, who is a Tier 5 Powerhouse.
Gideon ck, who is a Tier 4 five-Star powerhouse, and Scarlett, who has just been promoted to a Tier 4 Powerhouse, are naturally the second echelon of the teams strength.
The remaining ones are Orion Wolfe and the two maids, who are at the Tier 3 Peak level, as well as Bianca White, who has reached Tier 3 Eight-Star and is only one step away from a Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
A Tier 5 powerhouse, two Tier 4 powerhouses, plus five senior Tier 3 powerhouses, including me It seems that my team is bing more and more formidable.
Realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown slightly and continued to ponder.
Of course,pared to the mysterious organization that has at least seven Tier 5 powerhouses and dozens of Tier 4 powerhouses, the road to bing stronger is still long and difficult.
ording to their ruthless temperament, it would be very difficult if they find out about the existence of me, who has already threatened their Otherworldly Lord.
However, when the time is ripe, they will naturally know how stupid it was to regard all the otherworldly lords as ants and to think they could kill them at will.
At this time, Leo Ray took a deep breath and thought again: Anyway, as long as I win over Giant Axe General Burt and Holy Light General Joshua,
while my strength is enhanced, it will alsoy a solid foundation for winning over Ariel Watson and then controlling the whole Coldme Kingdom. It can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
After all, these two are truly experienced and genuine Tier 4 Senior Powerhouses.
With this thought, Leo Ray brought his subordinates back to his senses.
Because the number of Invisibility Cloaks was more than enough,
he first distributed one to each of his subordinates.
Then he mounted Bianca White, who had transformed into a white giant wolf and was also wearing an invisibility cloak and a special saddle, and said to his subordinates: Alright, lets set off. Our destination is Mystara City!
After that, the group of people hidden under their cloaks flew out one after another and galloped towards the distance.
Next, under Orion Wolfes guidance, everyone raced with the wind and sped along, basking in the brilliant sunlight above their heads.
They quickly crossed Cyan Town and several Coldme cities along the way, and Mystara City, their target, was getting closer and closer.
Amidst the rushing wind, feeling the biting cold, Leo Ray squinted his eyes, gripped the special saddle with his feet,
and pressed tightly against the invisible body of the white giant wolf, grabbing its fluffy white fur near its neck that hadnt beenpletely covered by the cloak.
Because the Invisibility Cloaks, like Illusion Cloaks, wont affect each other in a batch,
So, in Leo Rays view, everyone was still closely surrounding him.
Since the cloak itself would generate a mysterious attraction to the body after working, there was no need to worry about it being blown away by the wind.
Therefore, although the journey was somewhat long, Leo Ray still enjoyed the scenery that was zipping by around him leisurely.
Just like that, after they had just crossed the area where Viennas City was located,
Not far away, there was a mixed area of towering mountains and forests.
Before this, Leo Ray had already learned about it.
This mountain range, called Pine Sound, spans nearly half of the Coldme Kingdom, and while it may notpare to the endless Hundred Ranges,
it is still an incredibly vast and towering entity.
And the fastest route to Mystara City is to cross this Pine Sound Range.
Of course, for ordinary people,
it would be impossible to cross this dense forest swamp and mountainous gorge mixture, where demon beasts are rampant.
Even most of the powerful warriors with considerable strength would choose to detour for safety reasons.
However, Leo Ray and his team obviously cannot be described as ordinary.
Therefore, there was no reason not to take this shortcut.
Next, they went straight into the mountain range area, and after shuttling through the dense forest for a while,
Taylor, who was at the front of the team, suddenly stopped.
Whats the matter?
Stabilizing himself on the back of the white giant wolf, Leo Rays face showed a puzzled look.
Reporting to Lord, there are many faint breaths ahead, at least a thousand people. The specific situation is unknown.
On the other side, Taylor immediately bowed and reported to Leo Ray.
Oh?
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly, with a curious look on his face, mumbling to himself: Who would appear in this location, where this vast mountain range is in the hintend and around it are all uninhabited areas?
The next second, Leo Ray seemed to think of something and suddenly showed an enlightened expression.

Chapter 426: Chapter 341: Two Major Organizations in the Mountain Range
Trantor: 549690339
At this time, Leo Ray got off from the back of the gigantic white wolf and thought to himself, If thats the case, the answer is simple. The only possible reason for anyone to be in such a deste ce is the presence of us Otherworldly Lords.
With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Leo Ray stretched his somewhat stiff body and continued to ponder.
The faint aura of over a thousand people was also easy to understand.
Currently, the majority of the Lords Mansions had reached Tier 3, and their poption was mostly around 40 to 50 people.
Therefore, as long as there were 20 or 30 Lords, bringing their subordinates together, naturally, they would form such arge group.
Realizing this, Leo Rays face revealed an increasingly curious expression.
If things are really as I suspect, I wonder why these Lords have gathered here.
Since Ivee across this situation, I might as well go and investigate. At this stage, Im quite interested in the development of other Lords. By taking this opportunity, I can gain a deeper understanding.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray contemted for a moment before speaking to Orion Wolfe and Amelia, who was his personal maid, Lets act separately for now.
You two will head back to Mystara City, which isnt far from here, and inquire about Holy Light General Joshua in detail. Ill bring the others along afterwards.
With the help of expensive items such as the Invisibility Cloak and Concealment Ring, and the fact that both Orion Wolfe and Amelia had reached the level of Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse, traveling across this mountain range would not be a problem.
By yourmand, Lord!
On the other side, both of them bowed simultaneously, lowering their heads deeply.
Then, upon Leo Rays signal, their figures shed and disappeared into the depths of the jungle.
Alright, lets go see what those faint auras of over a thousand people are up to.
Immediately afterward, Leo Ray slightly nodded to Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, Abigail, and Bianca White who were beside him.
Two suns, onerge and one small, hung in the sky.
The brilliant sunlight passed through the gaps in the verdant forest canopy, casting spots of varying shapes on the weed-covered ground.
Moreover, it also reflected the glimmering waves on a clear stream that flowed beside them.
The nearby chirping of insects,bined with the continuous green mountains in the distance, gave everything a poetic and picturesque atmosphere.
On the other side of the stream was a t area in a mountain valley.
At this time, the whole valley was bustling, and there were thousands of people densely crowded together.
At first nce, these figures were divided into three factions.
It could be clearly seen that the formations of two of the factions were more disciplined, while the other faction was morex.
Standing at the forefront of the crowd were nearly thirty neatly dressed young men and women.
Like Leo Ray, these people were Otherworldly Lords who had descended into this world.
Behind or around them were the subordinates, some in neat rows or scattered.
Most of these subordinates were dressed as ordinary farmers, holding sharp scythes or logging axes in their hands.
The remaining few were fully armed professional warriors, including swordsmen, archers, long spear-wielders, and heavily armored soldiers. At first nce, they seemed to have all the necessary professions.
Their auras were also significantly higher than ordinary farmers.
That being said, among these three Lord camps, the most eye-catching are.
The foremost figures in the two tightly-knit camps.
In the camp near the creek, the leader is a young female Lord.
She has fair and delicate facial features, with a sleek ponytail, and her tight brown leather armor perfectly outlines her exquisite curves.
A longsword is attached to her slender waist, making her look energetic and charismatic.
At the moment, she is seriously discussing something with the other Lords from her camp, exuding an air of courage andpetence.
Seeing this scene, those loose-camp Lords instantly became enthusiastic and started chattering among themselves.
Is that Quinn Serena, the leader of the Lane No.9 Fan Club? She truly is extraordinary!
Indeed, indeed, a good friend I met in the Chat Channel told me that Quinn Serena has awakened battle talent. Not only has she sessfully condensed an Energy Vortex,
but she has also reached Tier 1 Seven-Star level. Among us Lords, her strength can only be described as terrifying.
Wow, thats amazing? Im still working on condensing my Energy Vortex!
Moreover, I heard that before crossing over, Quinn Serena was the heiress of a top-level family, receiving elite education since childhood. She is well-versed in various arts like music, chess, literature, and painting. She is simply a perfect goddess!
Sigh, you guys dont know yet? It was precisely because of Quinn Serena joining the Lane No.9 Club that it has be the hardest club to enter among all the Master Leo groups in the entire Coldme Kingdom region.
There are arge number of applicants every day. I tried five times, but I wasnt sessful
So thats the case, the camp led by Quinn Serena is Master Leo Club. As expected from arge organization, it seems to be filled with elites. Its so enviable.
However, in our area, the only one that can rival the Master Leo Club is the Mountain and Sea Alliance!
As the discussion reached this point, the scattered Lords gazes were focused on another neatly formed camp not far from the Master Leo Club.
In the forefront of this camp stands a young man, half of his body covered in silver-white light armor.
Upon closer inspection, this young man carries a heavy two-handed sword on his back, and a trace of faint pride can be seen on his face.
At the same time, an unobtrusive wave of energy emanates from him, and this wave is clearly much more potent than that of other regr Lords.
Seeing this, those Lord hermits once again began chattering.
Is that Levi Marshall, the boss of the Mountain and Sea Alliance? He seems to be as strong as Quinn Serena!
Brother, you have good eyes. Levi Marshall has also awakened battle talent. Currently, his strength has reached the Tier 1 Seven-Star level as well. This kind of progress can only be described as monstrous.
This is terrifying. Hes even stronger than my strongest subordinate. Just looking at his two-handed great sword, I bet its tough for an ordinary person to wield.
Fortunately, all the Lords around us are peace-loving. In addition to order being maintained by the Master Leo Club and the Mountain and Sea Alliance, we have been able to survive peacefully up until now.
Yes, yes, it seems we must hurry up and strengthen our power, try to join these two camps somehow. Going solo is not a long-term solution after all.
As their discussion reached this point,
a nonchnt figure, apanied by a few farmer-like subordinates, had stealthily made his way into the Master Leo Clubs camp.
And this scene was clearly seen by Quinn Serena, who was not too far away.
Noticing the unfamiliar, unknown Lord, Quinn Serena furrowed her brows and promptly went over to greet him.

Appearing before Quinn Serena, it was none other than Leo Ray.
At this moment, he was already wearing one of the Illusion Cloaks with his Tier 4 Leather Armor and Space Bracelet,pletely concealing the items emitting a variety of colors.
Furthermore, Leo Ray had already experimented before this.
If he were to change his appearancepletely using illusion, his identity as a Lord would be hidden, making it impossible for other Lords to identify him.
Therefore, to prove his identity as a Lord, Leo Ray removed the hooded cap of the Illusion Cloak, revealing his true face.
Standing around him were Taylor and others who had undergone aplete illusion transformation, appearing no different from ordinary farmers.
At first, I nned to use an Invisibility Cloak to silently follow these people, said Leo Ray.
But in that case, as a bystander, I wouldnt be able tomunicate with the other Lords to further understand the current situation and the status of other Lords.
Hence, after much thought, it is most appropriate to directly join these Lords as an ordinary Lord.
With that thought in mind, looking at Quinn Serena walking towards him, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips slightly, continuing to ponder in his heart, Just now, I heard the Lords of hermits mention that this is the Master Leo Fan Clubs camp; I was about to sneak in and have a look at how my fans were doing, but it seems to have drawn some attention.
It seems that the Master Leo Fan Club is even more cautious and strict than I imagined. Of course, I have already prepared for this.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,
On the other side, Quinn Serena, with her heroic appearance, had already arrived in front of Leo Ray with several other male and female Lords, all armed to the teeth.
Quinn Serena, surrounded in the middle, first shed her starry eyes, ncing up and down at the inly dressed Leo Ray and the five ordinary farmers behind him, Taylor among them.
She then frowned slightly and said, Friend, this is our Master Leo Fan Clubs group. The group for the Lords of hermits is over there.
When Quinn Serena finished speaking, a tall, thin male Lord next to her frowned and said, Brother, youre just one person with five unarmed peasants. I advise you to go back to your territory as soon as possible. With such a weak power, youll be cannon fodder for the other Lords of hermits.
Upon hearing these words, Leo Ray shrugged his shoulders indifferently and responded, Actually, Im also a member of the Master Leo Fan Club.
Dont joke around. With your power, youre a member of our Master Leo Fan Club?
Hearing this, another slightly chubby male Lord sneered disdainfully, Friend, are you trying to sneak into our Master Leo Fan Clubs group and take advantage of some benefits?
Although our Master Leo Fan Clubs purpose is to encourage cooperation among Lords to win and fight against the powerful native forces in this world, we are by no means tolerant of other Lords encroaching on our benefits. So, youd better dismiss this idea as soon as possible.
James Hugh, dont jump to conclusions before we rify the situation.
Quinn Serena waved her hand at the slightly chubby male Lord, and a trace of doubt appeared on her delicate face.
Her lips moved slightly as she asked Leo Ray, So, you came here after seeing my gathering ce message in the various chat channels, right?
More or less.
Leo Ray raised his eyebrows nomittally, maintaining his calm demeanor.
Friend, not only are you unarmed, but even your subordinates are empty-handed. With this kind of strength, its impossible for you to join our Master Leo Fan Club, said James Hugh disdainfully on the other side.
As he spoke, the other Lords of the Master Leo Fan Club began to chime in.
Yeah, I didnt expect this guy to be so stubborn!
Our Master Leo Fan Club is an organization that follows Master Leo. Its not for everyone to join!
Exactly, youre just going to die with this little group. Why dont you listen to good advice?
Quinn Serena signaled for the surrounding Lords to quiet down and looked at Leo Ray, who remained calm and collected, her doubts growing stronger.
Facing so much ridicule, how could this seemingly weak man with no energy fluctuations remain so calm? It was simply hard to understand.
It was known that the standard for participating in this joint exploration mission was to bring at least 30 fully armed subordinates.
However, he had only five peasants, which obviously did not meet the requirements.
Is it possible that he believes his five empty-handed subordinates can take on the other thirty fully-armed subordinates? thought Quinn Serena, her eyebrows seemingly knitting together. As her longshes fluttered, she continued pondering: I could imagine that his other subordinates might have been attacked by Demon Beasts on the way, causing them to die. So, he decided to sneak into the Master Leo Fan Club and take advantage of some benefits. After all, the reputation of the Master Leo Fan Club is widespread, with members all over the continent.
And the reason he is so calm is perhaps that his n to fish in troubled waters has been exposed, and he is still trying to save face.

So, lets confirm with him for thest time. If he still cant give a reasonable answer, theres no need to continue bothering with such a person.
With that thought, the frown on Quinn Serenas fair cheeks rxed slightly, and she patiently asked again, My friend, since you insist on saying that you are a member of our Master Leo Fan Club, which group do you belong to? And who introduced you?
Lane No.6 Club, Lincoln Wilde.
Directly opposite to her, Leo Ray replied with a faint smile.
Without a doubt, Leo Ray said this
Because he had already contacted Lincoln Wilde, a Talent with the ability of Silent Migration, whom he had casually saved once before. Lincoln happened to be the deputy leader of the Lane No.6 Club.
When Lincoln received the message from Leo Ray, he was almost in tears of joy and promised immediately.
After all, this was a favor from Master Leo! Most people couldnt get such an opportunity even if they fought for it!
With his identity as the deputy leader of the Lane no.6 Club, it was easy for him to create a member identity for Leo Ray in the Master Leo Fan Club.
Just like this, after a while,
Quinn Serena, who was already friends with Lincoln, quickly received a positive reply after sending a private message to inquire.
And ording to Leo Rays instructions, although Lincoln didnt reveal Leo Rays true identity,
He couldnt help but add the word congrattions at the end of the reply, leaving Quinn Serena confused, thinking that the other party was just wishing her the best of luck in this operation.
Alright, everyone stop doubting. I have confirmed that thispanion named Shawn Sands is indeed a member of our Master Leo Fan Club.
Quinn Serena shook her head and immediately said,
Even though this unexpectedly calm male Lord only had five subordinates and didnt bring any weapons or equipment, which would be of no assistance to the operation,
Since he was indeed a member of the Master Leo Fan Club, she, as the leader of Lane No.9 Club, naturally couldnt ignore him.
Realizing this, Quinn Serena opened her lips slightly again, and said somewhat helplessly to Leo Ray, Shawn Sands, you can join us then. Since your strength is the weakest, you can take a position in the center of the team.
Moreover, ording to the initially established rules, after the sess of our operation, you can still get a share of the spoils equal to that of the other members.
As she said this, Quinn Serena turned her delicate face towards the other Lords nearby and continued, Alright, from now on, Shawn Sands is our fellowbatant.
Although his strength is weak, he is still a member of our Master Leo Fan Club, so I hope everyone can get along and not break the rules of our Fan Club. Otherwise, you will be punished severely.
I didnt expect this guy to be a member of our Master Leo Fan Club.
Upon hearing this, the Lord called James Hugh, whose momentum had been so pressing, couldnt help but wane slightly and snorted.
He was reluctant to say, Each of us has more than 30 fully-armed subordinates, while he only brought five, and still gets to share the spoils equally with us. Hes really gotten a great bargain.
As soon as this was said, the other Lords who had been making a fuss just now agreed in low voices, Thats right, I didnt expect the entrance requirements of Lane No.6 Club to be so low. Its simply a world apart from our Lane No.9 Club
We are all members of the Master Leo Fan Club, whats the harm in helping our brother Shawn Sands.
On the other side, the tall, thin man Lord who had spoken first came over to Leo Ray, nodded slightly, and said, Brother Shawn Sands, my name is Gabriel Jordan, wee to our team!
Thank you, Im just passing by and thought Id take a look.
Facing him, and surrounded by his subordinates like Taylor, Leo Ray responded with a faint smile.
As the conversation continued, Leo Ray further learned that,
Since the Pine Sound Range nearly stretched across half of the Coldme Kingdom, its area was vast, with countless mountains, forests, andkes within.
Thus, the Lords who had gathered here were almost all from the surrounding steep mountains.
Most importantly, not only was the area rich in resources,
But it was also located in the middle area between the core and the periphery of Pine Sound Range, thus it was mostly surrounded by Tier 1 and a small number of Tier 2 Magical Beasts.
As a result, in this region, they wouldnt be attacked by the natives of the mountain range and were at a safe distance from powerful Demon Beasts in the core area, making it a very suitable ce to develop.
After these points, and with the establishment of the Lane No.9 Club, led by Quinn Serena, as well as the Mountain and Sea Alliance,
These two forces gathered the surrounding Lords together, forming two significant powers, making this region rtively stable.
As for the Lane No.9 Club and the Mountain and Sea Alliance, these two Lord forces, driven by disputes over territory,
Although there were constant minor frictions and mutual dislike, they were still rtively peaceful and norge-scale battles had urred.
After all, both forces were evenly matched, and no one wanted to hurt both themselves and the enemy at the same time.
In this process, somebat-focused Lords emerged, but they were eventually wiped out.
I see.
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly nodded and turned his deep, dark eyes to the nearly thirty Lords in different uniforms.
It could be clearly seen across the green mountains and clear waters,
Chapter 429 - 342: The Large-Scale Exploration Plan【5K】_3
Chapter 429: Chapter 342: The Large-Scale Exploration n5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
In terms of clothing, equipment, and overall appearance, the Master Leo Fan Club and the Mountain and Sea Alliances squad of lords indeed outshined those solitary lords by quite a bit.
At the same time, they were also the strongestbined forces of lords that Leo Ray had ever seen, with each squad having around four hundred members just within the scope of his vision.
ording to Gabriel Jordan, such a scale is considered to be an extremelyrge force among lords. After all, there arent many ces as suitable for development as this one, and very few lords have territories grouped so densely, muttered Leo Ray as he raised his eyebrows slightly.
Of course, even with such strength, it was still not worth mentioning for him.
Looking at the current situation, the development level here is considered the ceiling for most lords, right?
Thinking about this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, a puzzled look appeared on his face, and he murmured to himself, What exactly is this operation that these lords are talking about?
Just as Leo Ray was pondering, Gabriel Jordan seemed to have thought of something, smiled faintly, and took out a mottled stone axe from behind, handing it to Leo Ray, Take this for self-defense, Shawn Sands, brother. Something is always better than nothing.
epting the crude axe from Gabriel Jordan with some surprise, Leo Ray thanked him before murmuring with a wry smile in his heart, Goodness, this crude logging axe really brings back memories.
No need to be so polite, Brother Shawn Sands, were all members of Master Leo Fan Club. If Master Leo were here, he would do the same, he said.
After saying that, Gabriel Jordans eyes were filled with irrepressible admiration.
If Master Leo were here and saw such a cker in the Master Leo Fan Club, that would be interesting!
Hearing that, James Hugh snorted disdainfully and left with the other lords.
James Hugh, if you keep acting like this, Ill go to Team Leader Quinn Serena andin!
After shouting at their retreating figures, Gabriel Jordan turned to Leo Ray apologetically, Brother Shawn Sands, please dont mind them. Actually, that guy is really a nice person.
Its fine.
Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and smiled indifferently.
He naturally wouldnt bother too much about those people.
Leo Ray hade to participate in this so-called operation as a normal lord in order to blend in and learn more about the current state of the other lords.
Their behavior only served to make Leo Ray more ordinary and better observe everything.
After a moment of contemtion, Leo Ray raised the question that had been lingering in his mind to Gabriel Jordan: To be honest, my arrival here is purely idental. I dont know the reason for your gathering here.
So thats how it is. No wonder you only brought five subordinates, Brother Shawn Sands. Your territory must not be far from here, right?
On the other side, Gabriel Jordan nodded thoughtfully.
This mountain range, with its crisscrossing ravines and dense vegetation, made it extremely easy to hide a lords mansion and several buildings.
Realizing this, Gabriel Jordan smiled faintly before replying: Since Brother Shawn Sands is also a member of our Master Leo Fan Club, I dont have to hide anything from you.
Yesterday morning, one of our teammates from Lane No.9 Club who has an awakened treasure-seeking talent discovered a very hidden natural cave not far from this mountain stream. They deduced that there must be a treasure or some other high-value item inside.
That cave happens to be in the territory of the Mountain and Sea Alliance, so after several unpleasant negotiations, we formed a joint exploration team with those guys from the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
The specific lineup includes Team Leader Quinn Serena, their boss Levi Marshall, and several other capable lords, as well as more than twenty Tier 1 Seven-Star elite warriors as subordinates who then entered the underground cave together.
Upon reaching this point, Gabriel Jordan paused before continuing: ording to Team Leader Quinn Serena, the underground cave has a vast, unique space.
However, not long after entering the cave, the team was attacked by a group of Tier 1 magical beasts and a Tier 2 magical beast. They barely managed to escape with their lives.
Through our experiences during this time, we found that the more people there are, the less likely most demon beasts are to appear.
So, after discussing with the Mountain and Sea Alliance, we decided to gather arge number of people to resume the exploration. If were lucky, we might be able to obtain the treasure inside without fighting.
Moreover, to gather more manpower and be prepared for any unforeseen circumstances, Team Leader Quinn Serena announced the assembly location in the chat channel. All the lords whoe will have their spoils evenly distributed as long as they follow themands.
So thats how it is.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and thought to himself, One thousand people exploring a vast underground cave together Thats quite interesting. But what Im more curious about is the treasure inside.
Speaking of which, these two groups who couldnt get along have chosen to cooperate now? Things probably wont be as simple as they seem, right?
Well, the current me is just an ordinary lord. Ill just watch and see what happens.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking this, several lordly figures approached from the Mountain and Sea Alliances camp, led by the young man with the twin swords named Levi Marshall.
When they came closer, Levi Marshall smiled slightly and said, Alright, Team Leader Quinn, its about time. Let your Master Leo Fan Club take the lead and be responsible for both wings.
From his tone, it was obvious that he did not take Quinn Serena seriously at all.
Were taking the lead and responsible for both wings? Are you kidding? Didnt we agree to distribute things evenly?
Quinn Serena snorted lightly and responded sharply, Dont forget, ording to what we agreed on yesterday, I am themander for this operation!
You said youre themander?
Hearing this, Levi Marshallughed as if he had heard a hrious joke, How could I possibly let you be themander for this operation?
Levi Marshall, what are you implying?
Seeing the mocking expression on his face, Quinn Serenas fair cheeks started to darken.

Theres nothing interesting about it. The position of teammander concerns life and death, and naturally, its for the capable to upy.
Levi Marshall still maintained a lukewarm smile on his handsome face and responded, Besides, there arent just members from Master Leo Fan Club and Mountain and Sea Alliance here.
I assume these Lords of Hermits wouldnt want to entrust their own and their subordinates lives to a weak side among us, right?
At this moment, due to Levi Marshall raising his voice intentionally, he instantly drew the attention of all the surrounding Lords of Hermits.
Once those Lords of Hermits gathered, they all showed curiosity, gazing unblinkingly at the scene.
After all, confrontations between the two big organizations leaders in the nearby region rarely happened.
Moreover, these two also happened to be strong individuals who had awakened their Battle Talents. Their strength and status were both extremely rare existences here!
Realizing this, a look of irrepressible admiration appeared in the eyes of the observing Lords.
It seems that these two forces that dislike each other really cant easily cooperate.
Observing the scene, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows and continued to watch.
Levi Marshall, do you want to settle this matter through a duel between us, Lords?
Seeing the surrounding Lords gathering, Quinn Serena frowned, Our strengths are both at the Tier 1 Seven-Star level, but my speed is far superior to yours. You have never won against me in our previous encounters!
That was before. This time, we can only find out by fighting.
Levi Marshall smiled coldly, What do you say, Leader Quinn? With so many people watching, do you dare to fight me? The winner bes themander of this cave exploration, and the loser obeys unconditionally. Viting the agreement will result in the forfeit of the right to explore the cave.
Hearing this, an uncertain expression appeared on Quinn Serenas face.
Levi Marshall, the cunning leader of the Mountain and Sea Alliance, wouldnt do something without confidence. Can it be that the other party has some reliance? But with other Lords of Hermits present, refusing will undoubtedly have a significant impact on our Lane No.9 Clubs reputation.
Realizing this, Quinn Serena continued to think, as her long eyshes shed, No wonder he didnt object yesterday when I proposed recruiting Lords of Hermits to the action. It turns out that he had a n.
No matter, under the influence of my Battle Talent, I justprehended a new sword technique yesterday. Even if he keeps some hidden cards, I may not necessarily lose to him.
With that in mind, Quinn Serena drew the single-hand sword from her waist. Her fair cheeks were filled with an air of ice-cold determination, Levi Marshall, then let me show everyone here with my strength that our Master Leo Fan Club will forever be unmatched!
On the other side, Levi Marshall snorted disdainfully, took the double-hand sword with a cold gleam from behind his back, and coldly said, Come on, Leader Quinn, dont forget what we agreed upon.
Afterward, they both pulled away some distance from each other, pointed their sharp des at each other, and adopted a battle stance.
For a moment, the entire valley where nearly a thousand people were gathered fell silent, leaving only the murmuring sound of the stream nearby.
A one-on-one battle between two Lords who have awakened Battle Talents?
Among the onlookers, Leo Ray showed a rather interested expression.
Before this, Leo Ray had initially learned of the talents developed by Otherworldly Lords through casual chats with Lords like Lincoln Wilde.
These talents awakened by Otherworldly Lords could basically be divided into two major categories.
One type was utility Talents.
The other was Battle Talents.
Among these, utility Talents were further categorized into three subtypes by Otherworldly Lords.
They were Exploration, Treasure Hunting, and Special.
Leo Ray had already encountered each of these three subtypes.
For example, Ss Brooks, who was currently mining Obsidian and Dark Magic Crystal for him in the Old Mine District of Golin City, had awakened the Exploration Talent Unusual Mineral Prospector.
At present, various resources such as Iron Ore and Copper Ore were undoubtedly essential for the development of all Lords.
Therefore, this type of Lord was considered quite popr.
Of course, for Leo Ray, who had reverse-engineered and upgraded his disassembling operation, it was not so important.
However, in a way, Leo Rays upgraded disassembly operation was equivalent to indirectly mastering this type of Exploration Talent.
This was, of course, one of the many advantages that allowed Leo Ray to quickly distance himself from other Lords.
But my upgraded disassembly operation has limitations and can only be applied to existing items. Therefore, I sometimes have to rely on these exploration-type Lords to find the resources needed to upgrade the Miracle Building.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and continued to ponder.
He was also no stranger to Treasure Hunting Talents.
When he first met the Lords Solomon and Sylvia in Golin City, Solomon Rues Treasure Tracer belonged to this type.
It was because of Solomons talent that I was able to discover the Immortal Gate in the depths of Golin City and those two Barrier Crystals.
Plus, this type of Treasure Hunting Talent can often find ancient ruins, cultivation caves of powerful people, or secret treasure locations that can make the discoverer rich overnight.

Trantor: 549690339
Therefore,pared to exploration-type talents, treasure-seeking talents are even more popr. Right, ording to Gabriel Jordan, the cave that is the destination of thisrge-scale exploration was also first discovered by a Lord with a treasure-seeking talent, wasnt it?
Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and fell into deep thought again.
As for thest type of special talents, there are countless varieties and endless numbers.
For example, Night Beast Tamer in the Chat Channel, Lincoln Wildes Quiet City Migrator, Penelope Welbourns Blessing Creator, etc.
Of course, my Golden Finger talent should also belong to this category. However, judging by the name of my talent, my talent ispletely different from others. Perhaps this is the biggest difference.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray paid attention to the center of the field, Quinn Serena, the captain of Master Leo Fan Club team, and Levi Marshall, the boss of the Mountain and Sea Alliance. These two battle-type talent awakeners were about to fight, while he fell into deep thought again.
As for battle-type talents, Leo Ray didnt know much at this stage.
Therefore, just now, Leo Ray deliberately asked Gabriel Jordan about battle talents in detail.
He learned that such talents, when awakened, can oftenprehend unique cultivation methods and basicbat knowledge and movements, as well as speed up their cultivation.
Moreover, after reaching a certain level of strength, they can automaticallyprehend new skills to further improve the Lordsbat ability.
Besides, I just heard the Lords of hermits saying that Quinn Serena and Levi Marshall both awakened their battle talents on the first day of the Advent.
Obviously, they cant pose any threat to me since they havent reached Tier 2, but they are indeed powerful for ordinary Lords.
At this moment, while Leo Ray was thinking, the crisp collision of weapons sounded from the other side.
Quinn Serena and Levi Marshalls figures intertwined, and the fierce battle began.
Noticing this, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes and looked over.
Amidst the shing sword and dagger, Quinn Serenas longsword was light and elegant, and her footwork changed quickly, taking the path of a speed-based swordsman.
On the other hand, Levi Marshalls two-handed giant sword swung wide, and his footsteps were steady and powerful, obviously a strength-type warrior.
For a moment, the two fought fiercely and evenly matched, stirring up dust and debris on the ground from time to time.
This intense scene involuntarily elicited gasps of amazement from onlooking Lords.
For them, who hadnt yet condensed an Energy Vortex, such powerful strength could only be described as horrifying!
If there was only one person who was not surprised, it was naturally Leo Ray.
Having experienced bloody battlefields and fighting against Tier 5 Powerhouses himself, watching a Tier 1 level battle was like childs y to him.
At this moment, while others were filled with amazement and longing, Leo Rays ck eyes were filled with calm scrutiny and analysis.
These two peoplesbat abilities are obviously inferior to mercenaries or elite soldiers of the same level. Most of the time, theyre just using the energy in their bodies to collide.
It seems like me, although Ive reached the required strength, I must polish my fighting skills and mastery of abilities through repeated real battles and training. Theres no shortcut for suchbat experience.
Leo Ray shrugged slightly, continuing to watch and pondering in his heart, From their energy, Quinn Serena does seem to be at Tier 1 Seven-Star, while Levi Marshall is clearly suppressing his energy. Such a small trick cant escape my eyes.
It seems that his real strength has reached the peak of Tier 1 Nine-Star. Perhaps thats why he wanted to test his skills earlier?
A gap of two stars in strength was enough to determine the oue of this match between two people whosebat experience and equipment werent too different.
As Leo Ray was thinking, the evenly matched battle not far away changed as expected.
Swift Strike!
At this moment, Quinn Serena shouted and swung her longsword, which was covered in energy, leaving a dazzling trail in the air, shing towards Levi Marshall.
Levi Marshall, who was prepared, showed a subtle cold smile at the corners of his mouth.
Giant Sword Devour!
In an instant, along with Levi Marshalls shout,
A momentum clearly stronger than Quinn Serenas surged from his body, causing the giant sword in his hand to shine.
With a swoosh, the next second, the giant sword pierced through the air, stirring up strong winds as it whistled towards Quinn Serena.
ng!
The crisp sound of weapon collisions rang out again, and under the full force of two-star stronger Levi Marshall,
As expected, Quinn Serena, who was caught off guard, was knocked away along with her sword and crashed heavily onto the grass.
Immediately after, before Quinn Serena could struggle to get up, the tip of the giant sword was already resting against her neck.
At this point, the oue of the battle was clear.
This scene immediately caused the Mountain and Sea Alliances camp to erupt in a triumphant cheer.
Hahaha, our boss is so powerful! He defeated the little girl captain of the Master Leo Fan Club with just one strike!

Thats right, lets see if they still dare to boast in front of us. The so-called Master Leo Fan Club? More like a dog shit club!
Hehe, it wont be long before this area ispletely under our Mountain and Sea Alliances control!
Tier 1 Peak Level?!
After being helped up by the two female lord of the Master Leo Fan Club, a look of disbelief appeared on Quinn Serenas pale face. As her long eyshes shed, she asked, Levi Marshall, when did you reach the Tier 1 Nine-Star peak level?!
As soon as Quinn said this, another strong wave of reactions urred among the lords.
Tier 1 Peak Level? Levi Marshall has actually reached Tier 1 Peak Level? No wonder he could send Tier 1 Seven-Star Quinn flying. This strength and cultivation speed are simply terrifying.
Indeed, these two were already the strongest lords here, now it seems Levi is undoubtedly the highest power in this area, right?
Forget about this area, Im afraid no one can match him among the lords of the entire Coldme Kingdom!
Im so d I didnt join the Master Leo Fan Club earlier, Ill go apply to join the Mountain and Sea Allianceter! Our leader is a powerful Tier 1 Peak Strength, its reassuring even when we sleep!
And me, Ill goter, too!
Listening to the exmations of the independent lords, Levi Marshalls smile grew even bigger.
Seen holding his huge sword, he walked leisurely to the front of the just helped-up Quinn Serena, and spoke casually, Quinn, since the oue has been decided, ording to our agreement, Ill be themander this time. So, during the exploration, your Master Leo Fan Club will take the lead, and be responsible for both wings and the rear.
What a joke!
Before Quinn could speak, the slightly overweight James Hugh stepped forward and argued angrily, We, the Master Leo Fan Club, are responsible for the front, middle, and rear. What are you responsible for?
Naturally, the safest area in the middle of the team.
Hearing this, Levi Marshall lifted his eyelids and looked disdainfully at James Hugh, threatening, Fatty, do you have a problem with that?
Feeling the formidable energy fluctuations and thetent violent aura emanating from Levi Marshall, James Hugh immediately wilted and reluctantly stepped back.
Before this, the reason why their Lane No.9 Club and the Mountain and Sea Alliance could stand against each other was that the leaders of both sides had equal strength.
Now, even the strongest Quinn Serena, who had awakened her battle talent, was so utterly defeated. Others were naturally no match for their opponents.
Upon thinking this, although they all felt aggrieved inwardly, none of the lords of the Master Leo Fan Club dared to step forward and argue, and they all showed expressions of unwillingness but helplessness.
Levi Marshall! Dont go too far!
On the other side, Quinn Serena, still somewhat unsteady, shouted again.
At this time, Quinn clearly understood that if she followed Levismand, during the exploration, if they encountered Demon Beast attacks, the Lane No.9 Club might suffer heavy casualties. This would totally break the bnce of power between them and the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
When the timees, if the other side overwhelms them, what awaits them and their subordinates, undoubtedly, is the path of destruction.
What, Quinn, do you want to go back on your word?
On the other side, Levi Marshall still had a fearless expression as he sneered, There are so many independent lords watching. If you really do that, it might not be impossible. However, as a leader of the Master Leo Fan Club, you dont keep your promises. What reputation does the Master Leo Fan Club have? In the near future, it wont be just your Lane No.9, but other Master Leo Fan Clubs might be implicated as well!
Afterughing arrogantly, Levi Marshall continued to press aggressively, Alright, Quinn, make your choice. If you agree to mymand, with some luck, you might have a glimmer of hope. But if you refuse, from now on, the Master Leo Fan Club will be discredited, and at that time, you will be the eternal sinner of the Master Leo Fan Club! Hahaha!
Right in front of him, listening to Levi Marshalls words, Quinn Serenas delicate body trembled slightly.
Although she gritted her teeth, she couldnt say a word. Her pale, exquisite face was filled with a helpless and at a loss expression.
Just like what Levi Marshall said, if she chose the former, there could be heavy casualties among the members and subordinates. And if she chose thetter, the entire Master Leo Fan Clubs reputation would be greatly damaged, and it might even affect her revered Master Leo.
Either of these two points was a responsibility she absolutely could not bear.
Whats the matter, Quinn? Cant make a choice? There are still so many people watching.
Looking at Quinn Serenas panicked and at a loss expression, Levi Marshalls smile grew even bigger as he mocked, This is the self-proimed Master Leo Fan Club? Itsughable!
Reaching this point, Levi Marshalls expression became even more arrogant as he said to James Hugh and Gabriel Jordan, who were cowering, And what about you? Not one of you dares to step forward for your leader when shes cornered? Calling yourself the elite among lords? Youre a bunch of pathetic losers!
At this moment, the more Levi Marshall spoke, the more excited he became. He continued tough manically, You call yourselves the Master Leo Fan Club? In the end, youre just relying on Leo Rays name. Whether he recognizes you or not, thats still unsure. Furthermore, what if he does? If hees before me himself, Ill still beat him up till hes searching for his teeth on the ground!
By the way, that guy hasnt shown any signs for several days. Im afraid hes already dead, right? Hahahaha!
Just as Levi Marshall was saying this, a casual figure appeared in front of him, seemingly out of nowhere.
What happened next left everyone present dumbfounded.

Chapter 433: Chapter 344: One Punch5K_1
Trantor: 549690339
Standing in front of Levi Marshall was naturally Leo Ray.
Originally, Leo was nning to participate in this exploration mission as an ordinary lord.
However, this guy named Levi Marshall was not only extremely arrogant towards the members of Master Leo Fan Club.
But in the end, he even dragged Leo into the mix, rendering him unable to stand by while this unfolded.
Through the conversation and observation just now, I already have a better understanding of the development status of these lords and the battle-type talents.
So, its time to teach this guy a lesson.
As Leo thought this, Levi was surprised to see someone suddenly standing in front of him and immediately cast a scrutinizing nce at him.
Upon discovering that there were no energy fluctuationsing from Leos body, Levi revealed a mocking expression and arrogantly said, Kid, youre trying to stand out, arent you? Youre way out of your league!
On the other side, when Quinn Serena, Gabriel Jordan, and James Hugh saw this, they all looked at each other with puzzled expressions.
This male lord from Team Six only had five farmer subordinates, and he was undoubtedly the weakest of them. Furthermore, there were no energy fluctuations emanating from his body.
With such strength, he dared to confront Levi? Was this guy courting death?
Thinking this, Quinn hurriedly tugged at Leos arm and whispered, Shawn, what are you trying to do? Levi is a Tier 1 Peak Strength. He might cripple you if things go wrong!
Yeah, brother Shawn, youre no match for him. Come back quickly!
Gabriel also rushed forward and advised Leo.
Even the previously domineering James Hugh couldnt help but nod in agreement.
I know what Im doing. Smiling faintly at his teammates, Leo redirected his attention to Levi.
Oh, youre really not afraid of death, huh?
On the other hand, Levis imposing presence increased once more, and he spoke menacingly, Just with you, you dare to stand in front of me?
So you said the team leader position is for those who are capable, right? Ignoring Levis mockery, Leo casually yed with the Rough Logging Axe in his hand and spoke indifferently.
Lets see if you have that ability!
Seeing that Leo didnt seem to care about himself, Levis face grew angrier, and he slowly stepped back to gain some distance.
At the same time, their conversation attracted the attention of other members of the Mountain and Sea Alliance and the Lords of Hermits.
That guy from the Master Leo Fan Club wants topete with Big Brother Levi? Has he lost his mind?
Exactly, Big Brother Levi is a Tier 1 Nine-Star Peak Strength. Even Quinn Serena isnt a match for him, let alone this guy who doesnt have any energy fluctuations.
You guys look, hes holding a Rough Logging Axe in his hand, which isughable, hahaha.
s, it looks like this reckless young man from the Master Leo Fan Club is going to meet a miserable end
Hearing the voices of the lords, Levis face filled with a smug smile, and he slightly bent his legs, preparing to attack.
As for Quinn Serena and the other lords from the Master Leo Fan Club, they had no choice but to step back with worried expressions on their faces after their repeated attempts to persuade Leo failed.
Especially Quinn Serena, her long eyshes shed as she stared intently at Leos tall figure, her fair and clear face filled with confusion, wondering in her heart, What is he trying to do?
Kid, let me show you what real strength is!
On the other side, Levi, full of confidence, didnt use the double-handed sword on his back. Instead, he abruptly stomped on the ground, raised his sandbag-sized fist, and swung it at Leo!
Seeing this, the lords of Mountain and Sea Alliance had even broader smiles. To deal with this kid, Big Brother Levi didnt even need to use weapons. The oue was already set!
As for the lords of the Master Leo Fan Club and most of the independent lords, they all showed looks of dismay.
A few female lords even covered their eyes as if, in the next second, the weak young man would be easily knocked down by Levi just like Quinn Serena.
In the center of the battlefield, as a ferocious-looking Levi swung his fists, Leo stood serenely, without making any movements.
At this moment, the energy in Leos body had umted and enhanced his senses significantly.
As a result, he could clearly see every detail of the opponents movements.
In the blink of an eye, when Levi was only one meter away from Leo.
Leo, with one hand clutching the Logging Axe, finally raised his other hand, turned his palm into a fist, and directly shed against Levis fist.
Boom!
In an instant, the two fists collided, creating a dull sound.
Crack!
Simultaneously, the sound of bones breaking could be heard, and Levi felt as if he had punched a seemingly immovable mountain.
Immediately after, before he could react, an irresistible force, as overwhelming as a tsunami, sent him flying in an instant.

Trantor: 549690339
Hmm!
It wasnt until Levi was suspended in midair that a spray of blood spurted from his mouth. The next second, a shrill scream echoed through the valley.
Since everything happened in a split second, all the Lords and their subordinates present only reacted afterward.
On the spacious field, only Leo Ray still stood in ce.
Levi, who had just been about to show off his skills, had already fallen heavily several meters away, knocking him unconscious.
At this moment, the sharp-eyed Lords were shocked to find that Levis right arm, the one he had thrown a punch with, waspletely twisted and deformed, most likely broken in several ces.
For a moment, there was a dead silence in the room.
Everyones eyes were wide open, and they were breathing heavily due to the shock. They could hardly believe what they had just seen.
Since Leo Ray didnt throw the punch very fast just now, most of the Lords present saw it very clearly.
To be able to knock out a Tier 1 Peak Strength opponent with a single punch without any suspense and disable their arm in the process
Just how terrifying was this seemingly calm young mans strength?! He wasnt just a Lord; he was like a superhero!
At this time, the Lords of the Mountain and Sea Alliance, who had been looking forward to seeing their leader show off his skills, saw their smiles quickly reced by looks of extreme shock and terror.
When did such an incredible one-punch man appear in Master Leos team?
Meanwhile, the Lords on Master Leos side, after being stunned for a while, began to cheer one after another.
Among the crowd, Quinn Serena blinked her long eyshes. Her beautiful, fair face was filled with shock as she stared unblinkingly at Leo Rays retreating figure.
She never expected that this unexpected sixth member of Master Leos team would have such terrifying strength!
On the other side, Gabriel Jordan, James Hugh and other Lords looked both surprised and delighted.
However, on James Hughs chubby face, there was also a hint of shame and embarrassment.
No wonder Leo Ray, who they called Shawn Sands, had been indifferent to his taunts just now.
Perhaps, in Leo Rays eyes, James Hugh was like a clown who didnt even warrant a response.
At the same time, the frence Lords who had been siding with the Mountain and Sea Alliance just now quietly moved away from them and approached Master Leos team, casting respectful nces at Leo Ray.
It was undisputed that this seemingly unfazed man had at least reached the terrifying Tier Second to instantly defeat a Tier 1 Peak Strength opponent!
Thinking of this, these frence Lords couldnt help but swallow their saliva as they looked on with awe.
It was only now that they had their first taste of the saying theres always someone better, theres always something greater.
Just as everyones hearts were churning with emotions.
On the other side, in the crowd of the Mountain and Sea Alliance camp, under the guidance of a ruthless-looking male Lord, several subordinates lifted their bows and arrows with ferocious expressions.
For a moment, several sharp arrow tips pointed at Leo Ray not far away.
Naturally, such movements couldnt escape Leo Rays eyes. He first signaled to Taylor and the others, who were ready for action, not to intervene.
Immediately, with a stern look, the Tier 5 Nature Wand suddenly appeared.
Boom!
The next second, before those vicious people could fully draw their bowstrings, a deafening thunderp rang out.
Apanied by a dazzling bolt of lightning from the sky, they fell crookedly to the ground, lifeless, under the shocked gazes of those present.
Magic Is that magic?!
Wasnt this Master Leos powerhouse a physical one? How can he use magic?!
Oh my God, its so terrifying. Ive never seen such powerful magic before
The most critical thing is that this guy didnt use an incantation just now; it was an instant cast!
Upon witnessing this incredible scene, the entire field was once again in an uproar.
Even a few nearby Lords were so startled by the sudden st that they sat down on the ground and couldnt get up for a while.
Its important to note that,pared to physical powerhouses, magic powerhouses were significantly fewer in number in this world.
This was also reflected in the summoning of subordinates and the awakening of magic battle talents.
It was undeniable that,pared to physical powerhouses, magic powerhouses obviously had many advantages, such as long-range attacks and group attacks.
Of course, despite their powerful attacks, they also had shorings like fragile bodies and weak endurance.
However, at this stage, for the vast majority of Lords who still mainly relied on farmers as their main force,
having a long-range magic subordinate or awakening a magic battle talent would undoubtedly be of great help to thebat strength and security of their territory.
This was something most Lords thought about day and night.
But as mentioned earlier, whether through summoning subordinates or awakening talents, only a handful of them could actually make their dreamse true.
Even a significant number of Lords had only heard of magic and had never witnessed it with their own eyes.
So, it could be imagined how shocked the other Lords were when they saw this scene.
Chapter 435 - 344: One Punch【5K】_3
Chapter 435: Chapter 344: One Punch5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
And the Nature Staff that Leo Ray had just conjured out of thin air had taken this shock to the extreme.
Amid the panic, the other tempted Lords and subordinates of the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
Looking into the eyes of Leo Ray holding the ancient and colorful magic staff, they were left with nothing but uncontroble terror, as if they were looking at a fierce evil, and dared not make any moves at all.
Not only did he use his physical strength to send a Tier 1 Peak Strength fighter flying with a single punch, but he could also instantly cast terrifying magic, wasnt that a bit too heaven-defying?!
At the same time, no one dared to cast a disdainful nce at Taylor and the other four dressed as farmers who stood proudly behind Leo Ray.
The strength of the boss himself was already so incredibly powerful and unfathomable, who could guarantee that his subordinates were just ordinary people?
Next, Leo Ray naturally wouldnt waste more time here. He turned around and said indifferently to Quinn Serena, Alright, deal with the people of the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
Without a doubt, Leo Ray couldnt even bring himself to think about plundering these lords from the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
Thus, the best solution was to hand them over to Quinn Serena and other familiar members of the Master Leo Fan Club to handle.
If there were any other gains, he could simply ask at that time.
I can imagine that the situation in Coldme is changing rapidly, and these lords will inevitably have conflicts with the local cities of Coldme sooner orter.
This, without a doubt, will help restrain the forces of Coldme across the region, greatly reducing my pressure.
Even, they can serve as a surprise force to coordinate with my future military deployment.
Thus, its not impossible to foster a portion of the lords who are loyal to me and slightly stronger than other ordinary lords, but not to an extent that threatens my reasonable range. And of course, the Master Leo Fan Club is a good choice.
As Leo Ray thought about this.
On the other side, after a long pause, Quinn Serena finally reacted and hurriedlymanded the other members of the Master Leo Fan Club to start unloading the opponents equipment.
Thank you so much, Boss Shawn Sands, for rescuing our Lane No.9 Club!
At this time, Quinn Serenas delicate face was filled with uncontroble joy and gratitude.
It could be imagined, if it werent for the intervention of this boss from the Lane No.6 Club.
They might have already been used as cannon fodder, ced at the forefront of that mysterious cave!
And even if they managed to escape by a hairs breadth, with Levi Marshalls cunning nature and Tier 1 Nine-Star strength, it would only be a matter of time before he devoured their Lane No.9 Club.
By then, countless lords and subordinates of the Lane No.9 Club would have been scattered corpses, with heavy casualties!
But now, not only were the members of their Lane No.9 Club unscathed, they had also directly taken over the territory of their sworn enemy, the Mountain and Sea Alliance, which was just like a dreame true.
Youre wee, if this guy hadnt added that name in the end, maybe he couldve bounced around a little longer. With a faint wave of his hand, Leo Ray smiled lightly and said.
That name? You mean Master Leo? Quinn Serenas eyes sparkled, excitedly asking, Boss Shawn Sands, do you know Master Leo?
I guess so.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray didnt continue the topic, and instead changed the subject, Alright, send a few lords to lead the way, and lets start exploring that cavern.
At this point, Leo Ray turned his head and looked at Taylor and the other four, Just having me and my subordinates here is enough to ensure the safety of all of you.
As he said that, Leo Rays gaze fell on the lords of hermits beside him, nodding slightly, Remember, the Master Leo Fan Club will never go back on its word, we will still fulfill the promises we made to you, of course, the share belonging to the Mountain and Sea Alliance and a part of the Master Leo Fan Club is nowpletely mine.On the other side, hearing Leo Rays words, one of the medium-built frence male Lords quickly stood up and responded respectfully, We all listen to the boss!
Just like that, a momentter.
Standing in front of Leo Ray, the members of Master Leo Fan Club included Quinn Serena and Gabriel Jordan, as well as a cute and delicate young female Lord named M, who had the talent for treasure hunting.
As for the frence Lords, only a representative was sent, the medium-built male Lord who had just spoken, named Patrick Pain.
Meanwhile, the other frence Lords had already joined the ranks of the Lane No.9 Club, assisting Master Leo Fan Club in their fight against the Mountain and Sea Alliance Lords.
Oh right, Brother Gabriel Jordan, you lent me a Crude Logging Axe just now, didnt you?
At this moment, it seemed as if Leo Ray remembered something and, with a wave of his hand, a shy Tier 3 single-handed battle axe appeared.
This axe, named the Barbaric Battle Axe, was obtained by Leo Ray inrge quantities from the Border Battlefield.
Previously, the single-handed axe given to Matthew of Golin City was also this kind of Tier 3 weapon.
Instantly, the sharp and pure metal de gleamed brilliantly under the sunlight, reflecting a dazzling cold light, while the strange colors emitted from it made it hard for one to take their eyes off it.
Boss Shawn Sands No, Boss Shawn, what is this?!
Looking at the Tier 3 weapon in Leo Rays hand, Gabriel Jordan could hardly believe his own eyes and did not dare to reach out for it.
Quinn Serena, M and Patrick Pain beside him all swallowed hard, unconsciously licking their lips, their faces filled with shock and envy.
At this stage, even a top-quality Tier 1 weapon was highly sought after by most Lords. These weapons with strange colors shing were something they had never even seen before!
Such high-ranking equipment was given away so casually by this Boss Shawn Sands. It seemed that not only was his strength terrifying, but he was also incredibly rich.
Take it. Its your due.
Seeing Leo Ray smile faintly, he forcibly handed the axe to Gabriels hand. Then, under an unbelieving gaze from the crowd, he left with Taylor and the others.
At this time, several people, including James Hugh, who were in the middle of tying up a Mountain and Sea Alliance Lord, saw this scene and showed regretful expressions.
If they had also weed this Boss Shawn Sands at that time, perhaps they could have gotten some benefits as well!
As for the beautiful female Lords nearby, they all threw undisguised amorous nces at Leo Ray.
If they could get the favor of this great man, they naturally could be phoenixes!
Under the careful guidance and admiration of the petite Lady M,
Leo Ray and his group, apanied by Quinn Serena and the other Lords, continued along the beast path. After crossing arge patch of low shrubs and long-tailed grass,
A hidden cave at the foot of the mountain came into Leo Rays sight.
At a nce, the area around the cave was surrounded by strange rocks covered with moss, crooked and protruding.
There was also a tributary of the small creek from earlier, running through the area in front of the cave. Moreover, the narrow entrance could only amodate one person.
It was indeed difficult to find without careful observation.
Well then, let me see whats so special about this ce.
With that, after Taylor and Gideon ck, the vanguards, entered the cave, Leo Ray bent down and went straight inside.

Trantor: 549690339
Upon entering the cave, Leo Ray noticed.
Contrary to the narrow entrance, the space here was extremely spacious, almost like they had arrived in a vast underground world.
No wonder Quinn Serena organized over a thousand people toe here in the beginning. With this size, indeed, theres more than enough room. The only issue would be getting in, which can take some effort.
With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Leo Rays dark eyes swiveled as he continued his observation.
At a nce, the surrounding scenery was utterly unique, unlike any ordinary cave.
At the edge of the asionally bumpy, wide paths was a gently flowing underground river.
The sound of the babbling water echoed back and forth in the vast cave, giving off a sense of ethereal otherworldliness.
The most eye-catching aspect, however, was the semi-transparent stctites that covered the caves ceiling. They appeared crystal clear and came in various shapes.
Some resembled transparent beaded curtains hanging directly from the ceiling to the ground, while others were like waterfalls not yet fully pouring down from the mountain peak, dangling in mid-air in clusters.
Above the ground, there were endless stgmites, like continuous waves, reflecting beautifully with the stctites on the ceiling, making it hard to take everything in at once.
Additionally, variously colored luminescent moss-like magical nts grew on the cave walls.
These nts illuminated the entire cave, casting a kaleidoscope of colors and enhancing the already stunning stctites and stgmites, causing people to marvel at the incredible work of nature.
Due to the magic moss, which was akin to indicator lights, the cave had suitable brightness.
As a result, even without Light Crystal Stones for lighting, Leo Ray and the others quickly adjusted to the light here.
This is quite interesting.
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, his face revealing a hint of surprise.
Boss Shawn Sands, ording to my talents guidance, the treasure is located deep within this cave!
On the other side, a timid, crisp voice rang out, it was the petite M.
Lets start exploring, then.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray stepped forward and began walking towards the enchanting depths of the cave, surrounded by his subordinates.
At the same time, a touch of curiosity appeared on Leo Rays face, as he muttered to himself, I wonder what kind of treasure is hidden inside?
With that, they followed the wide path, sometimes smooth and sometimes rugged, heading straight forward.
Gazing at the stctites that constantly passed by on both sides, Leo Ray felt as though he had entered a magnificent magical stone forest.
Apanied by the rhythmic sound of the underground river flowing, it was an even more refreshing experience.
Against such a rich and fantastical backdrop.
Before long, the group of ten arrived at a descending slope.
At this moment, standing at the top of the slope, Leo Rays eyes narrowed, and he looked down at the view below.
Before him, it was still a magnificent sight.
The stctites at the peaks of the walls and the countless stgmites on the ground were reflected in the colorful glow emitted by the magic moss, making people feel as if they were in an extraordinary Crystal Pce.
Boss Shawn Sands, yesterday, we encountered attacks from several ferocious Demon Beasts right ahead in the depression.
On the other side, with a longsword in hand, Quinn Serenity approached Leo Rays side and spoke.
Understood.
Hearing her words, Leo Ray nodded slightly and then looked over at Taylor.
Not far away, Taylor immediately understood and bowed to report: Lord, your subordinate can indeed sense a group of Tier 1 and Tier 2 Magical Beasts lingering ahead. In the end, however, they are just mere insects. There is no need for you, Lord, to worry.
A group of Tier 2 Magical Beasts is considered mere insects?
When Quinn Serena, Gabriel Jordan, M, and Patrick Pain, the four Lords, heard Taylors casual response.
After a brief pause, they could not help but have astonished expressions on their faces.
It was well known that an ordinary Tier 2 Magical Beast could withstand ten Tier 1 Warriors with Energy Vortices. What more if it were a group?
This fact was all too clear to Quinn Serena, who had awakened her Battle Talent and had a strength of Tier 1 Seven-Star.
And to hear such formidable beings being referred to as easily-crushed insects from the mouth of seemingly ordinary farmer was simply unbelievable.
At this moment, Quinn Serenas slender eyshes fluttered, with astonishment filled in her eyes.
Undoubtedly, only a Tier 3 or above expert would have the confidence and qualification to say such bold words!
Does it mean that Boss Shawn Sands subordinate has already reached Tier 3? Thats quite terrifying, isnt it?
Realizing this, Quinn Serena couldnt help but swallow a mouthful of saliva and ridiculed herself in her heart: Before this, I had wondered whether Boss Shawn Sands five subordinates could match up to thirty fully armed subordinates of other people
Now it seems that just one of Boss Shawn Sands subordinates might have already broken through to that point. In short, without Tier 3 strength, it would be impossible to utter such bold words.
While Quinn Serena was thinking about this.
After listening to Taylors report, Leo Ray, standing on the slope, nodded slightly and said, I see. Then, when these little insects appearter, theres no need for any of you to take action. Ill handle them myself. Itll be a good opportunity to hone mybat experience.

Trantor: 549690339
Yes, my Lord!
Upon hearing this, Taylor and the other four all bowed in unison, performing the respectful salute.
However, this simple sentence had once again stirred up overwhelming waves in Quinn Serenas heart.
At this moment, she looked at Leo Ray in disbelief, murmuring to herself, Could it be Boss Shawn Sands has also reached the Tier 3 status?!
As her emotions fluctuated, Quinns chest, wrapped in leather armor, rose and fell, her delicate cheeks filled with uncertainty.
In her heart, an image that had been painted thousands of times in her mind seemed to be merging with the indifferent young man before her eyes.
Next, following the slope downward, as Leo Ray and his party arrived at the location Quinn had just pointed out.
As expected, a sudden surge of waves and bubbles started to flow rapidly from the underground river next to them, churning violently.
Seven huge ck figures then slowly emerged from beneath the water, letting out low roars.
In just a moment, several bloodthirsty mouths full of sharp teeth dripped with water droplets and saliva, obviously considering the party as prey.
On the other side, looking towards the slowly approaching Demon Beasts.
Leo Ray, who had already sensed all this in advance, gestured for the panicked Quinn and the others to retreat while he focused his gaze on the creatures.
He saw that the beasts were divided into two types: one simr to a giant lizard, and the other simr to a giant python, both with fierce and terrifying faces.
And from their massive size, each one weighed several hundred pounds.
Although the two types lookedpletely different, they shared onemon feature:
Their bodies were covered with dense dark scales, which reflected a strange glow under the illumination of the surrounding magic moss.
My Lord, they are Thorny ck Lizards and ck Mist Pythons!
As Leo Ray saw this,
Not far away, Scarlett, transformed into a freckled young girl, blinked her characteristicallyrge eyes and called out to Leo Ray, The Thorny ck Lizards are between Tier 2 One-Star and Tier 2 Three-star, and the ck Mist Pythons are also at Tier 1 Peak Level. Please be careful, my Lord!
Understood.
Leo Ray gave a faint smile, and with a single thought, the shy Nature Staff reappeared in his palm.
Thunderfall!
Following that, without hesitation, Leo Ray swung the ancient staff with a purple hexagram magic array, aiming it at the three giant pythons at Tier 1 Peak Level.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
In an instant, apanied by three sessive thunderous explosions, the three pythons that had just crawled ashore were now charred ck and fell back into the river, sshing turbulent waves.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
At the same time, the remaining four ck lizards, their mouths spewing red tongues, flicked their scale-covered sturdy tails, and roared as they charged at Leo Ray!
However, before the giant lizards could get close, Leo Ray had already vanished from the sight of Quinn and the others.
Mirage Illusion Skill!
The next second, four identical, sword-wielding figures emerged from thin air, confronting the approaching ck lizards.
After advancing to the Tier 3 status, with the support of the immense energy within his body, Leo Ray had gained new insights into this universal illusion skill.
Therefore, it was only natural for him to act together with the three illusions created by his real body.
In the blink of an eye, just as the three giant lizards missed their targets and the illusions vanished instantly,
Apanied by a cold sh, the opponent charging at Leo Rays true body was cut in half and killed on the spot!
Immediately after, without waiting for the other three ck lizards to react,
Two more thunderbolts fell from the sky, and while stirring up a burst of shattered rocks and dust, instantly flipped the two giant lizards over, exposing their white bellies.
With the strength of a Tier 3 Magic Powerhouse and the support of a nation-dominating Tier 5 Wand,
It was naturally effortless for Leo Ray to instantly kill these Tier 2 Magical Beasts thatcked magic resistance, even with just Tier 1 magic.
Giving a nce at the two magical-beast corpses with flickering currents on them, Leo Rays wand transformed once more into the incredibly sharp Rnddel sword.
With a sh of his figure, he turned into a meteor, shooting towards thest giant lizard.
In an instant, the shy de tip tore through the ck scales, leaving a dazzling streak of red.
As this all happened in the blink of an eye, by the time Quinn and the other lords reacted,
Leo Ray had alreadynded stably on the ground.
And the seven giant magical beasts, which had just been disying their prowess, had all fallen lifeless on the ground, mixed with the slowly flowing blood.
So powerful
It took a while for Quinn and her group of lords to react, their stunned gazes fixed on Leo Rays upright figure, faces filled with amazement.
To them, a single powerful magical beast was enough to be fatal, but in front of this calm young man, they were so easily defeated!
On the other hand, Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, Abigail, and Bianca White, after witnessing Leo Rays overwhelming battle,
Also showed excited and encouraged expressions, as they couldnt help but admit that their Lords growth rate had indeed reached a terrifying level.

Chapter 438: Chapter 345: The Thing That Should Not Appear [5K]_3
Trantor: 549690339
Alright, lets continue on.
After lightly swinging the iridescent sword and cleaning the bloodstains on it with the support of his internal energy, Leo Ray sheathed his sword and gave the dumbfounded lords a faint smile.
They continued forward along the path beside the underground river.
About twenty minutester, Leo Ray noticed that the water level of the underground river was getting higher as they ventured deeper, causing the once-spacious path to be narrower.
However, the stctites and stgmites along the path and on the ceiling became more densely filled.
Some stgmites and magic moss even started to appear inrge patches at the bottom of the crystal-clear underground river, creating an even more unique dazzling scene as the water rippled.
In addition, they encountered several groups of demon beasts with simr strength to those they had defeated earlier, all of which were effortlessly defeated by Leo Ray.
At one point, seizing the perfect opportunity, Leo Ray even used the slightly incantation-requiring Double Thunderfall Skill.
As the dazzling lightning descended, it illuminated the dumbstruck expressions of Quinn Serena and the other lords.
Finally, after crossing another steep rock wall, their view suddenly opened up.
What appeared before them was a vast undergroundke that seemed endless at first nce.
However, besides this, they found no other discoveries, as if they had already reached the end of the underground cavern.
How can this be?
M stepped forward and said with doubt while brushing away the hair on her forehead, ording to my talents sensing, there should be treasures here. But why is there nothing?
Could it be under the water?
Quinn Serenas eyes sparkled, and after staring into the distance for a while, she was also puzzled.
Dont draw conclusions too soon.
Looking at the surrounding bizarre and steep terrain, Leo Ray nodded and said, This ce is veryplex, with many areas blocked by huge rocks, obstructing our vision. So, lets investigate further first.
Lord Ray is right.
After nodding, Gabriel Jordan murmured, But the terrain here is full of cliffs and precipices, making it difficult to traverse. Well probably have to put in quite some effort.
Hearing Gabriel Jordans doubts, Leo Ray smiled and then nodded to Gideon ck and Scarlett, who were ready to make their move.
In an instant, a pair of dark gold magic wings and a pair of fiery red magic wings appeared on Gideon ck and Scarletts backs, respectively.
As the magic wings fluttered, the two of them flew up and began to patrol theplex terrain filled with massive rocks.
Is this the magic flight technique that only Tier 3 magic powerhouses can master?!
Seeing this, Quinn Serenas delicate and fair face showed an uncontroble astonishment, and she eximed.
Just a few days ago, she was lucky enough to recruit a Tier 1 Five-star magic system subordinate.
As a result, she also acquired a lot of information about magic from him.
Among these, was the ability to condense magic wings.
So, not only are Lord Ray and one of his subordinates at Tier 3, but there are also two other Tier 3 powerhouses in his team?!
Upon realizing this, Quinn Serenas breathing involuntarily became quicker as her chest heaved rapidly.
She looked at Leo Rays gentle face with increasing awe.
Undeniably, since she met him, this young man had brought her countless shocks andpletely overturned her worldview.
Originally, as a rich youngdy before transmigration, Quinn Serena had always been proud and aloof.
As for the admirers who pursued her and could have lined up from one end of the street to the other, she never gave them a second nce.
This attitude continued even after the transmigration and the establishment of Lane No. 9 Club. She never even looked straight at Levi Marshall, who had always been on par with her in strength.
However, it was not until the appearance of this unassuming young man that Quinn Serena finally realized just how insignificant she was in front of him.
At the same time, as Quinn Serenas mind was being drawn away.
Elsewhere, Gabriel Jordan, M, and Patrick Pain, who also knew some basic magic knowledge, stared dumbstruck at Gideon ck and Scarlett as their magic wings fluttered.
Shortly after,
Scarletts voice reached Leo Rays ears via mind-talk: Lord, I have found something amazing in a hidden location where a cliff meets the underground river!
Oh?
Hearing this, Leo Ray showed a curious expression and replied, Quickly guide me to see.
Yes, Lord!
Scarletts crisp voice rang in Leo Rays ear again.
Then, under Scarletts guidance,
After effortlessly crossing the huge rocks, they arrived at the edge of theke, where a cliff connected with the river.
A massive ck silhouette appeared in front of Leo Rays eyes.
Goodness, how did this thing end up here?
With the aid of the light from the magic moss clinging to the cliff, Leo Ray couldnt help but be amazed when he saw the huge object before him.
Lord Ray, what is it?
Quinn Serena and the others arrived, panting heavily.
However, when they saw the huge ck silhouette before them, they were also dumbfounded.
At this moment, what appeared in front of Leo Ray and his party of six, along with the four lords, was astonishingly a massive tri-mast warship!

Chapter 439: Chapter 346: From Before the nk Era_1
Trantor: 549690339
At the end of the underground cave illuminated by the magical colorful moss.
Leo Ray looked at the giant tri-masted warship in front of him, which was the size of a luxury cruise ship, with undisguised astonishment on his face.
I thought the vast underground cave was magical enough, but I never expected to find such a colossal thing hidden here.
With a mixture of awe and curiosity, Leo Ray stood on a t rocky slope and carefully observed the warship from above.
From his vantage point, he could take in the entire giant ship.
The first thing he noticed on the wooden ship was the three tall masts distributed on the front, middle, and back of the ship.
Each of the masts was about twenty or thirty meters high, especially the one in the middle, which was extremely thick and had a lookout tform on top.
Moreover, each mast had a giant ck sail attached to it, like huge ck curtains hanging silently in mid-air.
Whats worth mentioning is that these ck sails were covered in a thickyer of dust and had holes of varying sizes corroded by time.
It seems that this ship has been docked here for a long time.
Noticing this, Leo Ray shifted his gaze downward to continue observing.
The next thing he saw was the ships patchy open deck.
The majority of the decks surface was covered in various magical mosses, emitting a faint glow, adding to the ships sense of ancient vicissitudes.
Additionally, on either side of the hull, Leo Ray spotted rows of neatly arranged cannons, which indicated the ships formidable firepower.
However, the most eye-catching part was the sharp front of the deck.
There stood a gigantic bronze statue of a creature with the body and ws of a lion but with the head and wings of an eagle.
Upon closer examination, a huge broken w was held in the beak of the mythical creature, which seemed to be standing proudly and defiantly.
Although the statue was covered in rust and patina, its majestic and imposing figure from years gone by was still evident.
Just as Leo Ray caught sight of this, Scarlett approached with curiosity.
Lord, the griffin figurehead grasping the dragons w is quite unique, isnt it? she asked.
So it is. A griffin holding a dragons w? Leo Ray mused and nodded thoughtfully.
After getting to know this world for a while, he understood deeply that although griffins belonged to formidable demon beasts, they were far from being on the same level as the dragon n, who stood at the top of the power hierarchy.
Fighting giant dragons with the power of a griffin? It seems the owner of this ship has quite an idea. Leo Ray raised his eyebrows in spection.
On the other hand, M, standing in the back row with her petite figure, leaned forward on tiptoes with a surprised expression, whispering to herself, Amazing I never thought Id see a gigantic warship here
The key question is, why was this warship parked here? After staring nkly for a while, Quinn Serena, her face full of confusion, asked.
Yes, you know, were in a region full of mountain ranges. Gabriel Jordan, looking at the huge patchy object in front of him, couldnt help but swallow his saliva and marvel.
Lord, they are right, Abigail said, as she steadied her gaze and took her eyes off the ancient warship for a moment.
Abigail walked up to Leo Ray and said worriedly, Coldme Kingdom is an ind nation with no coastline. Our few ind waterways are far away from here. Therefore, its indeed unusual for arge warship to appear here.
Thats right, Lord, how did this huge warship get here? Scarlett, still puzzled, blinked her big eyes and added, From what weve seen so far, its impossible for such arge warship to enter this ce.
Could it be possible that there are other entrances and exits to this underground cave? Quinn Serena suggested thoughtfully after pondering for a moment.
Gideon, take a look around. Leo Ray, signaling for everyone to calm down, nodded at the muscr priest next to him.
Yes, Lord! With a sh of his body and the fluttering of his magical wings, Gideon ck transformed into a meteor with a dark golden tail and disappeared in front of everyone.
A short whileter, Gideon reappeared in front of Leo Ray, with the wind blowing gently, and reported, Lord, apart from the passage we came from, there are solid walls on all three sides, with no other entrances.
What? How could this be? Quinn Serenas delicate face was full of confusion and amazement. Then how did this warship get here?

Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, the curiosity on Leo Rays face became more and more apparent, just as Quinn Serena wondered.
It was indeed puzzling that such a massive ship would appear in the depths of this underground cave.
I got it! Maybe someone used a teleportation spell to bring the ship directly in here from outside the mountain!
After pondering for a moment, Scarlett, who still had the appearance of a freckled young girl, suddenly looked enlightened.
Indeed, we cannot rule out this possibility.
Nodding thoughtfully, Gideon ck adjusted the gold-framed sses that seemed invisible to Quinn Serena and the others, and said, However, teleportation spells have very limited range.
Furthermore, there are norge rivers in the vicinity.
Therefore, to achieve this, a powerful space mage would have had to use a teleportation spell on the ship all the way, only then would it be possible.
But I heard that teleportation spells consume a lot of magic power. Not to mention teleporting such a massive object. Whats the point of doing this?
On the other side, Bianca Whites fluffy standing ears inside the hooded cap twitched, her face full of confusion.
Enough. Lets board the ship first. After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray shrugged slightly and nodded at Taylor.
Lord, leave it to me. Taylor understood and, in a sh, he was already leaping among the strange rocks tens of meters away, then quickly jumping up tond steadily on the ships hull.
Immediately after, Taylors energy surged all around, obviously performing a full-range detection.
After a while, a rough voice reached Leo Rays ears: Lord, I have investigated the entire ship and the surrounding waters, and there are no other presences.
Alright, lets go and take a look too.
With that, Leo Ray and the remaining subordinates each disyed their abilities, quickly arriving on the ships hull and stirring up a cloud of dust.
Watching Leo Ray and the others elegant movements, Quinn Serena and the other four Lords marveled before they also headed towards the massive ship.
The first thing Leo Ray did upon boarding the ship was to head straight to a row of cannons tightly fixed in ce along the side of the ship and begin examining them closely.
These cannons, resembling muzzle-loading guns and covered in dust and mottled moss, had intricate patterns engraved on their surfaces, and a conspicuous groove near the bottom.
Leo Ray certainly was not unfamiliar with these structures, they were powerful Magic Cannons!
Filled with delight, Leo Ray immediately opened the Attribute Column of one of the Magic Cannons:
[Name: Ancient Magic Cannon Fire]
[Tier: Tier 2?Fine (Green)]
[Attack Magic: me Explosion Bomb MAX]
[Additional Effect: Magic Power Loss Damage Reduced by 50%]
[Note: This is an ancient magic cannon from thousands of years ago. After a long time, due to theck of maintenance, the magic array engraved on it has lost more than half of its function, greatly reducing its power.]
Well, the power has been greatly reduced even though there are many of them?
Closing the interface in front of him, Leo Ray couldnt help but slightly purse his lips, and then casually opened the Attribute Column of the cannon next to it.
[Name: Ancient Magic Cannon Fire]
[Tier: Tier 2?Fine (Green)]
[Attack Magic: Rapid Fireball Spell MAX]
[Additional Effect: Magic Power Loss Damage Reduced by 55%]
[Note: This is an ancient magic cannon, with its engraved magic array partially weakened, unable to exert its original power.]
Is it the same for all of them? After checking a whole row, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown slightly.
All of these Magic Cannons were in a state of Magic Power Loss, with their power reduced by about half.
Based on previous experience, upgrading them directly could at best restore them to their peak state or mass-produce items of the same batch with Magic Power Loss.
In this way, these old cannons would undoubtedly be of much less help to his side.
Lord, theyre all Fire-type Magic Cannons!
As Leo Ray was thinking, a crisp voice sounded on the other side. Scarlett walked quickly up to him with small steps and confidently said, My Lord.
After advancing to the Tier 4 Level, I also gained the ability to iy magic arrays onto Magic Cannons.
Although it would take a considerable amount of time to create a brand-new one, repairing this clearly sub-optimal Fire-type Magic Cannon can greatly reduce this process.
So, please leave the restoration of these Magic Cannons to me!
Very well, Ill reward you with ten honey cakes when we get back. You can redeem them from Rudy Blues anytime.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and then looked contemtive, In that case, Ill wait for Scarlett to finish repairing one, and then Ill upgrade another.
By the way, besides the Space Bracelet,
Ive also got the[Blessed Golden Pupil] and the[Dawns Eye], these two Storage Rings that I havent used yet.
The[Blessed Golden Pupil]has a total space of 50 cubic meters, while the[Dawns Eye]has a space of 100 cubic meters.
Ill start using the one with therger space, the[Dawns Eye], first.
Chapter 441 - 346: From Before the Blank Era_3
Chapter 441: Chapter 346: From Before the nk Era_3
Trantor: 549690339
With that in mind, Leo Ray nodded towards Quinn Serena and the others, who had just jumped onto the ship from a huge rock parallel to the open deck, indicating that they would distribute the itemster.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he easily collected all the Magic Cannons that had just been removed from their fixed positions by Taylor and his subordinates.
On the other side, Quinn Serena and the others, who were panting, naturally had no objections and quickly nodded in agreement.
To them, these ancient cannons, which looked very heavy, were undoubtedly useless.
Let alone dragging them all the way back, it would be better to ask Boss Shawn Sands to exchange them for some useful weapons and equipmentter on.
So, after collecting a total of 20 Tier Second fire-attribute magic cannons waiting to be repaired on both sides of the ships hull.
Satisfied, Leo Ray continued to stroll on the creaking wooden open deck while he couldnt help but show a pondering expression: ording to the attributes of the Magic Cannons, this colossal ship seems to have been here for thousands of years, but the deck and sails are mostly intact.
This is quite amazing.
My Lord, having grown up in a seaport town, I am quite familiar with tri-mast warships like this, said Gideon ck as he pushed up his gold-rimmed sses and bowed gracefully. As far as I know, the design of this tri-mast warship is very old.
It uses a mix of wind and magic power, with low speed and maneuverability, which is far from the all-magic power currently used. The material used here is the already obsolete Hundred-Year Magic Oak.
Although the durability of a ship made of this magic wood is excellent and not easily corroded by seawater, its resistance to magic spells is somewhat limited.
Therefore, the ships body is currently made of a much superior material called Elf Wood.
At this point, Gideon ck paused and continued, And the time when old warships were reced with new ones was right at the nk Era three thousand years ago!
So this ship is a product of the time before the nk Era 3000 years ago? Leo Ray couldnt help but show a surprised expression upon hearing this.
There was no doubt that for Leo Ray,
The mysterious Era of nkness had always been an unresolved mystery lingering in his mind.
Be it the ancient relics of the Light Elf Race, the empty ancient battlefield, the recently acquired Eternal Night Magic Box,
Or the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God mentioned by King West and the gods withdrawal of their favor,
Each event was incredibly unbelievable.
The more I know about it, the more I believe that during the Era of nkness, some incredible and even unbelievable things may have happened.
And this ship,ing from before the Era of nkness, might help me find some clues.
With that thought, Leo Ray took a deep breath, inhaling the faint ancient scent of the ship, and took another step forward, walking towards the Griffin figurehead at the bow of the ship.
As he got closer, Leo Ray noted that the metal Gryphon figurehead, holding a dragon w and standing more than five meters high, looked even more enormous and imposing up close, emanating an indescribable aura.
This thing wont suddenlye to life, will it?
Feeling the somewhat unusual aura and surrounded by Taylor and hispanions, Leo Ray pursed his lips and continued to look up.
At that position, Leo Ray could get a perfect view of the weathered and verdigris-covered face of the metal Gryphon.
However, in the next second, a mysterious red light suddenly lit up in the right eye of the metal Gryphon.
For a moment, the bright light was like a high-intensity red light bulb, making it difficult for anyone to keep their eyes open.
Next, under the astonished and vignt gaze of Leo Ray and the others.Although this metal griffin did not trulye to life,
something even more unbelievable happened.
As the metal griffins red eyes grew brighter,
an unusual energy fluctuation suddenly emerged from its eye area without warning.
At this moment, Leo Ray, who was surrounded by Taylor and others, noticed that
the enormous body of the metal griffin began to blur and be illusory.
At the same time, a thick fog followed with the metal griffin as its center, quickly spreading around. In the blink of an eye, the entire warship was enveloped.
Since all this happened in a sh, it was just when Leo Ray was embraced by Taylor after a long absence, preparing to leave this ce first.
The foggy scenes around became clear again.
What appeared in front of everyone was an endless ocean.
Under the bright sunlight, the azure sky was boundless.
From time to time, flocks of white seagulls flew across the sky, making cooing sounds.
What astonished Leo Ray and others was that the original mottled warship had bepletely renewed.
Especially the giant griffin figurehead in front of them, shining brilliantly under the splendid sunlight just as Leo Ray had anticipated.
Like a guardian, its shiny ancient bronze metal body was radiating dazzling light.
Meanwhile, one by one, semi-transparent figures began to transform from illusory to real, sessively appearing on the open deck, all looking busy.
My Lord, it seems that we have fallen into a sudden illusion.
Just as Leo Ray saw this,
Scarletts crisp voice rang in his ear, If my subordinate is correct,
the head of this figurehead should be iid with a very rare Illusion Crystal, and it was the red light emitted by this object just now.
The effect of this Illusion Crystal is to record everything that happened on this ship before its energy is exhausted and present it again.
Therefore, this illusion is just a record-type illusion and has no danger.
As Scarlett said this, Gideon ck on the side also nodded in agreement with her opinion.
So, its because of our arrival that the Illusion Crystal has been reactivated?
Hearing this, Leo Raynded lightly from Taylors embrace, showing a thoughtful expression.
My Lord, thats exactly the case.
On the other side, Gideon ck slightly bowed and responded, ording to my guesses, although the energy of the Illusion Crystal should have been exhausted three thousand years ago,
however, over the long years, perhaps due to the influence of the surrounding Magic Moss, it has slowly recovered some energy.
And thats why it was finally reactivated by us.
I see. As Gideon ck said this, Leo Ray had already opened the attribute column of that crystal.
He found that its name and function were indeed exactly the same as described by Scarlett and Gideon ck.
Seeing this, Leo Rays face revealed an increasingly curious expression, murmuring to himself, Well then, let me take a good look at what exactly happened
during the final stages of this warship.
Chapter 442 - 347: The Huge Contrast and Powerful Figures of the Era of Emptiness_1
Chapter 442: Chapter 347: The Huge Contrast and Powerful Figures of the Era of Emptiness_1
Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, on thepletely transformed huge ship, they gazed at the increasingly clear ocean illusion around them.
Both Leo Rays group of six and the four Lords, such as Quinn Serena, appeared to be astonished.
Especially Quinn Serena and the others, who had never seen such magical scenes before. They gasped in amazement, their mouths slightly agape, carefully observing their surroundings.
It must be said that in the blink of an eye,
From the dark and damp underground cavern, they suddenly found themselves on the vast and splendid ocean surface. This huge contrast indeed made people feel shocked.
As for Leo Ray, who had already experienced the Half-Elf Barrier and the Ancient Battlefield Mirage,
Not only was he amazed, but he was more curious about what had happened to the huge ship.
At this moment, in the increasingly realistic illusion,
Leo Ray felt the scorching heat from the two suns above his head while listening to the surging waves hitting the ships hull.
For a moment, apanied by the somewhat warm sea breeze, a unique fishy smell of the sea continued to enter Leo Rays nostrils.
Goodness, this record-like illusion feels almost indistinguishable from the real thing.
As the ship swayed gently, Leo Ray first looked at the shimmering sea around them, then raised his head to see the fully inted ck sails blown by the sea breeze, and couldnt help but sigh in his heart.
Straight away, he thought for a moment, reached out and held onto the mast not far from him at the bow of the ship, confirming its material existence.
But next to the mast, several busy sailors, adjusting the sail position and pulling on ropes, didnt seem to notice the group, their bodies slightly translucent, appearing to be illusions.
Immediately afterwards, Leo Ray mobilized all the energy within his body to enhance his senses
He infused a wisp of energy into the Golden Pupil, activating its ability to increase resistance to illusions.
Only then did the beautiful picture of the vast sea around them be increasingly illusory and eventually disappearpletely,
Reverting back to the dark scene of the underground cavern, while the swaying feeling of being on the sea vanishedpletely.
Only the red glow in the eyes of the mottled ships figurehead continued to sh incessantly.
That is to say, the objects originally on the ship havent changed,
And this record-like illusion is only the images projected based on them?
However, the realism of the illusion includes the swaying of the ship when sailing. This is quite miraculous.
In any case, whether its Gideon ck and Scarletts introduction, or the properties of the Illusion Crystal I saw just now,
Besides that, this record-like illusion poses no other danger, quite different from the Nightmare Realm I experienced before.
Even if this ship was once under attack, the most it could produce would be sound effects and light effects.
Upon thinking this, Leo Ray noticed
At this time, Taylor, a Tier 5 powerhouse, had already exited the illusion and was now guarding the group.
Taylor, Ill leave this ce to you.
Nodding to the burly man, Leo Ray deactivated the energy resisting the illusion and returned to the sunlit ocean.
Feeling the sea breeze again, Leo Ray refreshed himself and said to the people around him, Everyone, make sure not to go near the ships side.
Although this illusion is not dangerous subjectively, once this ship itself had been attacked,
It can still create an illusion of the hull shaking violently. At that time, things could turn very bad, so we must be fully prepared in advance.
No matter where we go, we always need to find a sturdy position nearby to maintain our bnce.
Yes, my Lord! Hearing these words, Gideon ck and the others, who were still in the illusion, immediately bowed and began to take action.
As for Quinn Serena and the others, they also nodded continuously, subconsciously gripping the ropes hanging from the tall masts.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes and focused his gaze on the two sailors on the other side who were working together to catch fish with a near the ships side.
Both of the sailors had darkplexions, wrapped in ck headscarves.
They wore dazzling ck leather armor and carried curved des emitting a faintly colorful sheen on their waists, revealing that they were wearing Tier 3 equipment.
Although he couldnt sense the energy fluctuations in them,
From the way they efficiently pulled up the giant fishing filled with various fish and crustaceans,
The huge energy that burst from their bodies was clearly beyond the Tier 1 range.
My Lord, these two have the strength of Tier 2 Peak fighters! At this moment, Bianca White stepped forward and bowed to Leo Ray.
Oh? You can tell the strength of these people without sensing their energy fluctuations? Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but look puzzled.
Yes, my Lord, this is not a problem for your subordinate. Bianca White blinked her blue starry eyes, her fluffy ears twitching slightly.
My Lord, it should be like this, Gideon ck hesitated for a moment and slightly bowed, saying, ording to my observation,

Perhaps it was because too much time had passed that the contents of this ancient illusory record were no longerplete, missing the manifestation of energy fluctuations.
However, the energy traces left behind by these illusions still remained and were restored by the Illusion Crystal.
Theoretically, by analyzing these extremely weak unusual energy flows, one could indirectly specte on the strength of these people.
However, even the highly perceptive human experts would have difficulty detecting this.
But the werewolf tribe has a unique innate gift for this aspect, which is why they can clearly perceive it.
Thats right, Lord, thats exactly what the muscr uncle said. On the other side, Bianca White waved her big tail hidden under the Illusion Cloak and smiled mischievously at Leo Ray.
I see. Hearing this, Leo Ray suddenly showed an enlightened expression.
At that time, when they were at the ancient elf ruins on Penelope Welbourns territory boundary.
Bianca indeed sensed the presence of three mysterious organization powerhouses through the residual energy at the very beginning.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray patted Biancas head to encourage her, then turned around at the bow and continued observing.
At a nce, hundreds of sailors were busy in groups of twos and threes on the huge deck, bustling and lively.
Some were pulling ropes, adjusting the giant sails above their heads.
Others were wiping the neatly arranged magic cannons with a cloth.
And some were standing in the towering lookout tower, carefully observing with a telescope.
In short, there were at least a hundred sailors, in groups of three or two, bustling nervously in their respective positions.
Moreover, it was obvious that these people were well trained, with half of them wearing colorful Tier 3 scimitars and ck leather armor.
The other half, all dressed in equally colorful ck robes and silver metal staffs, were clearly a group of mages.
Among them, a few leaders had even more radiant equipment, indicating they had reached Tier 4.
However, the most eye-catching person in the crowd was the young and burly man on the tail deck, clearly arge section higher than the rest, steering the ship.
This man had a rather heroic appearance, wearing a ck tricorn hat, and his ck leather armor shone brightly under the sunlight, its brilliance not inferior to Leo Rays longsword Rndel.
The surrounding sailors asionally cast admiring nces at him, clearly indicating that his identity was special.
Tier 5 leather armor, huh?
Seeing this, Leo Ray could not help but show a slightly surprised expression, murmuring to himself, It seems that, without an ident, this man should be themander of the ship, or the captain, but he looks quite young.
Lord, the strength of these sailors is at least Tier 2 peak level, ounting for about two-thirds of them.
And the remaining one-third are all above the Tier 3 level. As Leo Ray was observing this, Bianca White, who had swiftly circled the ship, came back to Leo Ray and reported, Among them, there are a handful of Tier 4 powerhouses, and the energy trace of the steersman is no less than Senior Taylors, clearly reaching Tier 5!
So it really is a Tier 5 powerhouse? Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, his face showing a thoughtful expression.
There was no doubt that from the nearly one hundred people on the open deck, it could be inferred that the strength of this giant ship was extremely formidable.
At least one Tier 5 powerhouse, five Tier 4 powerhouses, more than twenty Tier 3 powerhouses, and nearly seventy Tier 2 peak experts.
I didnt expect the crew of this giant ship to be so luxurious back then.
Realizing this, an increasingly curious expression appeared on Leo Rays face, murmuring in his heart, Moreover, a new clue can already be deduced from the current scene.It was this giant ship that was not originally within the scope of the Coldme Kingdom. Its sudden appearance was indeed intriguing.
Well, apart from using teleportation.
If one could possess an unthinkablyrge storage space, directly putting the ship into it would not be impossible.
At this stage, lets first examine what happened during that year.
Thinking of this and looking at the burly man steering the ship, Leo Ray turned around, taking a step and said to the people around him: Alright, for now, everything here is calm.
Lets take this opportunity to go to the stern deck and have a look. Maybe, there will be new clues there, yet unknown.
Understood! Lord! Hearing this, the subordinates replied in unison and surrounded Leo Ray.
At the same time, Quincy Serena and the others also nodded hurriedly and followed them.
In this way, they went along the crowded open-air deck.
In a short while, Leo Ray and the others arrived on the elevated stern deck.
In this position, besides the towering masts, another important facility was the huge round rudder.
Of course, the most eye-catching was the young Tier 5 Powerhouse operating the rudder.
Looking carefully, he indeed seemed quite young, with sword-like eyebrows and piercing deep brown eyes.
Just as Leo Ray saw this, a middle-aged sailor holding apass next to the Tier 5 Powerhouse bowed and said, Captain, the sea area ahead is the famous Blood Sea in this region. Shall we issue a full alert?
Following this, an elderly sailor beside themughed heartily and said, Hehe, our Captain is none other than the one in ten thousand Chosen Son of God!
At such a young age, he has already reached the level of a senior Tier 5 Powerhouse, with strengthparable to Tier 5 Peak Experts. Who dares to target the Chosen Son of God?
Hearing this, the astonishment on Leo Rays face was evident as he murmured in his heart, So, this persons upation is the Chosen Son of God that King West mentioned?!
ording to King Wests description, Leo Ray clearly understood.
This extremely special and rare upation only existed before the nk Age three thousand years ago and could appear among all races.
However, since the end of the nk Age three thousand years ago, there has never been another Chosen Son of God in the world.
Or rather, since then, no one has ever felt the power of the gods again.
I didnt expect there to have been such a mysteriously colored Chosen Son of God on this giant ship.
Realizing this, the surprise on Leo Rays face deepened: ording to King West.
This upation can feel the power of the gods, giving it a great advantage in both cultivation and battle.
No wonder he reached the level of a senior Tier 5 Powerhouse at such a young age.
With a slight smirk, Leo Ray continued to ponder, However, even such a powerful upation disappeared after the nk Age three thousand years ago.
It was through this that King West concluded that the gods no longer favored this world.
So, the question remains, since the gods no longer favor this world, why did we, the billion Lords, descend upon this world three thousand yearster?
What is the hidden connection between them?
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, a fast rhythm of metal pounding sounded from a short distance away.
From the lookout tform on the central mast, a sailor pointed at the junction of the sky and the sea in the distance and shouted, Twelve oclock! Enemies spotted approaching at high speed!
Hearing this, both the Chosen Captain and the other sailors around him had stern expressions on their faces.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray and his party stared intently at the distant sea surface, curiosity evident on their faces.

Trantor: 549690339
At this moment, Leo Ray held on to the railing on the inside of the stern deck while looking in the direction the sailor on the lookout tform was pointing.
However, across the boundless sea, their sight remained calm, showing no indication of anything unusual.
But the surrounding illusions seemed to have seen something, as they all started to get anxious.
Pass on my order, sound the highest level enemy attack alert, the whole ship enters battle mode, and everyone prepare forbat!
The young Chosen Son of God had a serious look on his face. While he quickly steered the ship, turning the giant vessel sideways, he ordered, First Mate, carry out pre-battle inspection.
Aye, Captain!
In an instant, as the urgent horn sounded, the aged sailors hands waved in the air while a small yellow hexagram array appeared before him.
Following that, the old sailor cleared his throat and spoke to the magic array, Report the preparation of each cabin!
Immediately, a series of crisp responses came from the magic array.
First Magic Cannon Deck is ready!
Second Magic Cannon Deck is ready!
Magic Power Cabin is ready!
Magic Barrier Cabin is ready!
Sail Middle Team is ready!
First Combat Middle Team is ready!
As the responses sounded off, the cabin doors below opened simultaneously.
Arge number of soldiers in ck armor and ck des emerged from the cabin onto the open deck and quickly stood guard at various points of the giant ship.
Meanwhile, the magicians had activated all the magic cannons on the deck, causing the embedded red magic arrays to shine brilliantly, creating a ready-to-strike stance.
At the same time, a semi-transparent defensive magic barrier enveloped the entire vessel.
For a moment, the atmosphere on the open deck became incredibly tense.
It seems like a battle is about to begin.
At this moment, looking at the violent sshes stirred by the ships sudden change of direction, hitting the ships side and falling on the deck, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a curious expression.
It must be said that witnessing a battle by the Chosen Son of God, who had vanished three thousand years ago, was an extremely rare opportunity.
Thanks to Leo Rays prior warning, although the ship shook violently during the turn, causing unsteady footing, everyone had already found suitable fixed positions to hold on, avoiding any problems.
Lord, why do all these illusions look so tense while my subordinates see nothing?
Staring at the still calm sea in the distance after the shaking of the giant ship had subsided, Bianca Whites face was full of confusion.
On the other side, Quinn Serena and the other three Lords, also wore perplexed expressions as they let out a sigh of relief.
The reason is simple. Leo Ray smiled faintly as he pointed towards the bow where they had been just now, If Im not mistaken the Illusion Crystal that records the surroundings of the ship must have a certain range.
The enemies are currently outside this range, so they cannot be recorded by the Illusion Crystal.
Lord is correct.
Gideon ck elegantly adjusted his gold-rimmed sses, and added, What we saw in the distant ocean is simply an illusion created by the Illusion Crystal, not the actual imagery from back then.
I see.
Hearing this, Quinn Serenas long eyshes fluttered as she stared at the calm horizon, her face enlightened as she murmured, So, this wonderful illusion realm is actually abination of the actual scenery within a certain range centered around this giant ship and the distant illusions, isnt it? I have to say its quite astonishing.
At these words, Gabriel Jordan, M, and Patrick Pain, also showed expressions of sudden realization.
As they were discussing this, the situation on the ship changed again.
At this moment, the giant ships speed had significantly increased following the emergency change of direction.
With the white waves surging around and crashing onto the deck, at themand of the Chosen Captain, the shipunched its first wave of attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
For a time, with dozens of magic cannons firing simultaneously from the three decks, the sound was astonishingly loud, almost deafening.
However, the fire magic that was fired out still vanished directly into the distance, beyond the range recorded by the Illusion Crystal.
Only a wisp of smoke remained at the mouth of the magic cannons, proving that a round of bombardment had indeed just taken ce.
Wow, such a concentrated firing of so many magic cannons, even if its only Tier Second, Im afraid it could cause great damage once it hits the target, right?
Watching this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows.
On the other side, after the first wave of attacks was over,
The giant ship turned 180 degrees again under the skilled control andmand of the Chosen Captain,unching its second wave of attacks.
They switched to the other side for the continuous attack because of the magic cannons cooldown time, right?
Amidst the ships violent shaking and feeling the salty sshes on his face, Leo Ray nodded slightly.

Chapter 445: Chapter 348: The Power of Fifth-Rank Spells5K_2
Trantor: 549690339
Following that, curiosity surfaced on Leo Rays face, and he murmured to himself, I wonder who theyre facing.
Baffled, Leo Rays gaze once again focused on the nearby illusions.
Including the Tier 5-level Chosen Son of God, all of them wore grave expressions as they busied themselves at their posts.
It seemed they were preparing for the third round of cannon fire.
From the conversation among the illusions, Leo Ray deduced that they were evidently using the improved range of the ships magic cannons to maximize weakening their enemys strength.
Lord, look! At that moment, Scarlett tugged on Leo Rays sleeve and pointed to the distant sea.
Following Scarletts pointing finger, Leo Ray noticed that ships were slowly materializing on the distant ocean.
In a moment, the sight of nine warships lined up in formation appeared before Leo Rays eyes.
At a nce, each of these warships looked no different from the giant ship everyone stood on, with three towering masts on each hull.
Also, sinister demon gs fluttered on the masts, indicating that these warships were undoubtedly evil forces.
For a time, the scene of nine giant ships riding the winds and cutting through the waves with great momentum was quite spectacr.
Well, the opponent of this ship is actually a whole fleet; no wonder its so tense.
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal an intrigued expression, continuing to watch the scene quietly.
The other lords and subordinates, who also saw this scene, whispered in astonishment.
Fire!
On the other side, following the Chosen Captains order, the third volley of cannon fire roared one after another.
After the series of loud booms, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes amidst the rising dust.
He saw one of the enemy ships directly opposite to the right, suffering from a series of fierce explosions.
Initially, the explosions were above the giant ship, evidently blocked by the defensive magic barrier.
However, in the next second, the defensive barrier shattered.
The subsequent cannon fire spread over the hull,pletely obliterating the enemys bow.
Instantly, the ship tilted over, thick smoke rose, and countless fragments scattered in all directions, sshing wave after wave of water.
The power of these improved-range magic cannons is indeed terrifying.
With such concentrated firepower, even Tier 4 Powerhouses would suffer considerable damage, let alone Tier 3 Powerhouses,
At this moment, Leo Rays dark eyes were filled with shock.
Although he had already experienced the bloody Border Battlefield, it was undoubtedly his first time witnessing such a naval battle.
However, once Scarlett repairs these magic cannons and upgrades them, wont I possess such power as well?
Thinking of this, a hint of joy spread across Leo Rays face: Arge number of magic cannons can not only further strengthen the defense of the territory.
Moreover, the defense forces of the three towns, including Cyan Town under my control, can also be further enhanced!
After all, before this, only Cyan Town was equipped with 20 magic cannons.
As Leo Ray pondered, the enemys three-masted giant ship that had been struck began to sink slowly into the sea, its fighting ability obviously lost.
Then, under themand of the Chosen Captain.
The giant ship they were on, like drifting on the sea, quickly turned 180 degrees again andunched a new wave of cannon fire.
As expected, another giant ship on the opposite side exploded and rolled over.
At this point, the enemys nine giant ships had been reduced to seven.
At the same time, the cheers of the surrounding illusions reached Leo Rays ears.
Seeing this scene, Quinn Serena and the other lords couldnt help but feel invigorated, as such a thrilling performance was a rare experience in their lives!
Full power to the engine room, theyre almost within the normal firing range!
On the other side, the Chosen Captain loudly ordered while frenziedly steering the ship to turn around, clearly preparing to open the distance once more.
However, during the turnaround, the seven oing giant ships had already switched to a single-column formation.
At that moment, hundreds of magic cannons were aimed at the direction where everyone was.
At this instant, although they knew it was just an illusion, facing hundreds of ready-to-fire lethal weapons still sent chills down their spines.
Its toote, start evasive maneuvers, divert most of the energy in the shield cabin to the starboard side of the ship!
Immediately after, the Chosen Captainsplexion changed, and he spoke again.
As soon as his voice fell.
On the other side, the enemy fleet on the right side of the hull simultaneously started firing.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom!
In an instant, visible magic fire burst from the cannons of the enemy ships.
The next second, under the bombardment of the enemys magic cannon fire.
Huge waves surged and whirlpools formed around the area of Leo Rays giant ship, causing the hull to shake violently.
Although the enemys uracy was significantly worse, the extensive coverage was undeniable.

Quite a few fireballs and me explosion bombs continued to hit the defensive magic barrier covering the sky above the ship.
With intense explosions, the semi-transparent magic barrier surface stirred up colorful ripples one after another.
Fortunately, the young captain managed to evade in time, and since the enemy was at the limit of their firing range, many of their magical artillery attacks fell short,nding not far from the right side of the giant ship.
As a result, no damage was done to the ships hull.
I must say, this immersive experience feels so real that one cant help but break a sweat for the giant ship, said Leo Ray as he realized the situation.
Quinn Serena and the others around them all let out a sigh of relief.
Among them, M, with her petite figure, hugged Quinn Serenas arm tightly, looking like she had survived a disaster.
Following an extreme maneuver,
Under themand and personal control of the Chosen Son of God, the giant ship everyone was on sessively sunk two of the enemys warships.
The five remaining enemy warships, this time, did not choose to attack from a distance. Instead, they charged directly towards the giant ship at an incredibly fast speed.
Captain, it seems the enemy knows they cantpete with us in long-rangebat and are nning to engage us in close-quarters boarding!
At this moment, the old sailors expression turned solemn as he spoke to the young Chosen Son.
Leave it to me C they wont find it easy to approach my ship, said the Chosen Captain as he handed the ships helm to the old sailor and slowly walked over to the side of the ship.
At the same time, an unusually patterned metal magic wand with myriad colors appeared in his palm.
Following the chant of aplicated and obscure incantation,
More than ten differently sized purple magic arrays suddenly unfolded around the Chosen Captain.
As the incantation grew louder, the magic arrays around him began to shine brighter and brighter.
Even on the waters surface ahead, turbulent waves were stirred up, causing the entire ship to sway violently once more.
The raging wind made it difficult for the other illusionary figures to keep their footing,
But it did not have any effect on Leo and hispanions.
Lord, it looks like the enemy is using a tier 5 level lightning attack magic spell. Gideon ck took a step forward and bowed as he spoke to Leo.
I see. Leo nodded slightly, murmuring to himself, Just like me, he also uses lightning magic spells, huh?
Nevertheless, the momentum is astonishing even during the chanting phase. As expected from a tier 5 level spell.
Just as Leo was thinking this,
The magic wand in the hands of the Chosen Captain shone with a brilliant purple light that was almost blinding.
The next moment, along with an ear-piercing dragons roar,
A giant purple dragon, covered in lightning, surged out of the recently formed giant magic array and charged straight towards the leading enemy warship.
Its massive body was at least 50 meters long, ording to Leos estimation.
Despite not being able to feel the energy fluctuations, the awe and fearful expressions of the other sailors suggested that it had reached a terrifying degree of power.
As the purple magical dragon soared through the air, it even stirred up a long, massive white trail of waves on the sea surface.
In an instant, the lightning-fast purple dragon crashed head-on into the front warship.
Bang!
The next second, with a loud explosion,
The leading three-masted giant ship was utterly shattered by the purple dragon, without any chance to counterattack.
The lightning-covered purple dragon didnt stop there, but instead mmed into another warship from the side.
Bang!
With another explosion, the second warship was likewise severed in half and began to slowly capsize.
Only when the still-fierce purple dragon approached the third warship did another force manage to crush it, and it finally vanished in mid-air.
Well, he is indeed the Chosen Son of God. A single tier 5 magic spell managed to directly annihte two three-masted giant ships. And this was even after he was stopped. Leos face was filled with amazement.
Each of these warships was over a hundred meters in length and equipped with defensive magic barriers. Their colossal size and destruction power could truly be considered astonishing.
I wonder if one day Ill be able to master such powerful spells, Leo said with an expectant expression, murmuring in his heart. Oh right, I havent searched the cabin of this giant ship yet. I definitely need to take a good lookter C there might be some unexpected gains.
Also, I must retrieve the Illusion Crystal on the ships figurehead. ording to Scarlett and Gideon, that thing is an incredibly rare existence.
With this thought, Leos face became puzzled, Speaking of which, although weve had an intense naval battle, we still havent obtained any critical clues, besides the name of this sea area C Blood Sea.
Perhaps this clue will be of assistance to us, but that remains to be seen.
As Leo was lost in thought,
The remaining three enemy warships had rapidly sailed close to the giant ship they were on.
Following that, three burly figures suddenly burst from each of the three giant ships, charging directly towards the position of the giant ship!
Lord, judging by their momentum, it seems that the strength of these three is all at the tier 5 level. At the same time, Gideons elegant voice reached Leos ears.
Oh? So theres only one tier 5 powerhouse aboard the giant ship were on, the Chosen Son of God.
So, is a tier 5 powerhouse battle of one against three about to begin?
Hearing this, Leo revealed an excited expression, murmuring to himself, Lets see if the one known as the Chosen Son of God, who is said to be able to feel the power of the divine, is as powerful as the legends say.

Trantor: 549690339
As slow to describe but quick to happen, in the blink of an eye, the three attacking Tier 5 Powerhouses had already arrived at the nearby waters of the giant ship where everyone was located with the swiftness of lightning.
Captain, judging from their auras, among those three people, two are Physical powerhouses and one is a Magic System powerhouse.
Moreover, their strength is probably at the level of Tier 5 senior strongmen or higher. I will start preparing the Dragon Breaking Magic Array! The middle-aged sailor who was holding thepass just now hurriedly eximed.
No need for trouble.
Not far away, the Chosen Captain standing at the side of the ship hummed lightly and said indifferently, Only three Tier 5 Powerhouses? I seem to have overestimated them.
Upon finishing his words, the purple glowing Magic Wings fluttered, and the Chosen Captain smiled with a stern look, transforming into a dazzling purple light and rushing forward.
Ive told you many times, Second Mate, although you havent been on the ship for a long time,
Our captain may be young, but even among the Chosen Sons of God, he is an outstanding figure.
Otherwise, how could we dare to enter this Blood Sea, known as the graveyard of ten thousand ships, with just a warship?
On the other side, the elderly sailor who was steering the ship nced at the middle-aged sailor, then nodded to him and said, Dont worry, our Captain wont have any problems.
When the two illusions had finished speaking,
Leo Ray narrowed his eyes, focusing on the dazzling purple light.
He pondered in his heart, Does he really intend to single-handedly challenge three Tier 5 Powerhouses of the same level by himself?
However, as a Magic System powerhouse, even with great strength,
once they are approached by Physical powerhouses, they will be in a very passive position, let alone two opponents at once. How exactly will this guy fight?
Just as Leo Ray was curious,
the young Chosen Captain on the sea surface had violently collided with the other two Tier 5 Powerhouses!
In an instant, a thunderous explosion echoed with a boom.
The huge aftermath of the energy collision immediately set off towering waves.
For a moment, arge amount of water shot up into the sky, creating an extremely astonishing scene.
A Magic System powerhouse confronting two Physical powerhouses head-on? Seeing this, Leo Rays curiosity was even more evident as he continued to watch intently.
The next second, when the sshing waves fell back, Leo Ray was surprised to discover,
At this moment, the weapon in the hands of the Chosen Captain had changed from the metal Magic Staff with strange patterns to a colorful and sharp Wide-de Sword.
Noticing this, Leo Ray was momentarily stunned, then revealed an enlightened expression, murmuring in his heart, Well, this guy really is bold. It turns out that he is also a Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation powerhouse like me!
On the other side, above the turbulent sea surface, after the initial collision,
The Chosen Son, who wasnt wet in the slightest, had his sword shing coldly in his hand. The sword energy he swung caused waves to explode on the sea surface one after another.
For a while, he seemed evenly matched with the two attacking Physical Tier 5 Powerhouses.
It seems that this guys Physical strength has also reached the Tier 5 Level.
While carefully observing the battle ahead, Leo Ray revealed a contemtive expression.
He murmured in his heart, It is really unimaginable that he has reached the Tier 5 powerhouse level, which most people cant achieve in their entire lives, at such a young age.
I did not expect that this guy would actually be a dual Tier 5 powerhouse in both Physical and Magic Systems!
Thinking of this, Leo Ray couldnt help but take a deep breath. As a fellow Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation practitioner, he naturally understood.
Compared to ordinary strongmen, although Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation powerhouses have some advantages when advancing, there is no shortcut in daily cultivation.
This means that a Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation powerhouse must spend twice the cultivation time to reach the same height as an ordinary powerhouse in both systems.
In other words, if others take ten years, Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation would require twenty years; if others take twenty years, Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation would naturally require forty years.
From this, it can be seen that the young Chosen Son, who had reached the level of a dual Tier 5 powerhouse at such a young age, was indeed shocking.
Of course, this is how others see it. As for me, there is no need to worry about this problem. I only need to refine one more Magic Medicine every morning.
At this moment, Leo Ray shrugged slightly and refocused his attention on the fierce battle not far away.
Above the raging sea surface, after the initial collision and probing,
The battle between the young Chosen Son and the two Tier 5 Powerhouses became more and more intense.
It was like three dazzling points of light shuttling back and forth on the sea surface, causing a dazzling sensation.
Through the asional pauses of their figures during the collision of their weapons, Leo Ray noticed.
The two attacking Tier 5 Powerhouses were both white-haired old men wearing gray armor.
Chapter 448 - 349: One Against Three【5K】_2

Trantor:549690339
One wielded a giant shield and a dagger while the other a long-handled ax, each move pulsing with an unstoppable force, clearly reflecting their aggressive fighting style.
Moreover, the duos speed and agility were unpredictable, and their flexibility made them appear invincible.
Of course, this was observed by Leo Ray and hispanions when the Illusion Crystals age rendered the Illusion Realm iplete, thus not allowing them to sense energy fluctuations.
On the young Chosen Sons side, despite being alone, he was able to hold his ground. With a swift dancing sword in one hand and crackling lightning in the other.
While entangled with the elder wielding the giant ax, massive lightning bolts erupted from his fingertips, continuously repelling the shield-wielding Tier 5 White-Haired Elder who tried to close in.
At a nce, although the shield-wielding elder was d in heavy armor and seemingly had incredible defense, he was undoubtedly wary of magical attacks.
As the three fought to a standstill,
A colossal Sea Tornado suddenly materialized in mid-air, then rapidly took shape.
With a force of destruction, it bypassed their battle, heading straight for the gigantic ship where Leo Ray and the others were!
At one nce, the howling of the ocean tornado,
Connected to the oceans surface, forming a massive whirlpool on the seabed, extended to the sky, and roared and spun frantically as it moved quickly.
For a moment, ferocious waves and the wind-scaling whirls were genuinely astonishing and soul-stirring.
The raging winds caused the colossal ship where they were aboard to tremble violently once again.
Witnessing this scene, whether it was the Illusion crew or Leo Ray and hispanions, couldnt help but stare wide-eyed in shock.
Having barely recovered from the shock of the purple lightning dragon magic, Quinn Serena and the others sank into a state of uncontroble stupefaction once again.
Such terrifying scenarios found only in movies had undoubtedly exceeded their expectations.
Lord, that Tier 5 Magic powerhouse, who has remained in the rear and never made a move,unched that formidable wind attack spell. It appears he intends to destroy the giant ship first, Gideon ck reported to Leo Ray with a slight bow.
Lord, Tier 5 powerhouses may releaserge-scale magic but consumes a vast amount of mana. And they cant continuously do so. The speed of the Chosen Captains purple dragon and the giant Sea Tornado is noticeably faster than otherrge-scale Tier 5 magics.
Thus, in addition to Tier 5 artifacts, those two must have high-level equipment that enhances their spell casting speed, Scarlett added with quick steps.
In summary, with this situation, it seems the opponent is prepared to fight the Chosen Captain to the death.
After all, this guy just wiped out more than half of the opponents fleet. Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but ponder with a furrowed brow.
Generally speaking,pared to physical powerhouses,
Magical attacks of Magic powerhouses are far more impactful in both momentum and destructiveness.
Particrly, when reaching Tier 5 Level, Magic powerhouses that can unleashrge-scale magic are even more impressive.
However, as Scarlett stated,
Although Magic powerhouses can release powerful spells in a short time, once their mana is depleted, they are utterly incapacitated.
Physical powerhouses, on the other hand, can still cause massive damage with their formidable physical strength, even without their physical energy.
Therefore, under the same conditions, the continuousbat ability of physical powerhouses far surpasses Magic powerhouses, with each having their own merits and demerits.
As Leo Ray came to this conclusion,
Directly opposite and amidst the raging winds and tumultuous waves, the powerfulrge-scale magic spell that could seemingly destroy the ship was about to strike.
During the heat of the battle, a dazzling Golden Magic Scroll suddenly appeared in the young Chosen Captains hand.
On the other side, the two Tier 5 White-Haired Elders, who had been battling the Chosen Son, immediately retreated with anxious expressions upon seeing the brilliant scroll, clearly fearing it.
The Chosen Captain did not engage them but activated the Magic Scroll in his hand instead.
The next second, eye-piercing, dazzling golden lights burst from the small Magic Scroll.
Following that, a breathtaking, giant golden Unicorn emerged and charged towards the Sea Tornado.
For a moment, the gloomy sky was illuminated, and even the oceans surface reflected glimmers of pale gold.
Lord, it appears that the scroll is sealed with Tier 5 magic. It seems the opponent is determined to destroy the Sea Tornado first and save this giant ship.
At this time, Gideon cks graceful voice once again reached Leo Rays ear.
Understood. Leo Ray slightly nodded, his eyes narrowed as he continued to watch.

In the blink of an eye, the golden unicorn galloping through the sky collided directly with the constantly whistling Sea Tornado.
Afterward, contrary to Leo Rays imagination of an intense energy collision or other grand scenes, the golden unicorn immediately transformed into a soft, golden, enormous curtain,pletely enveloping the Sea Tornado and then quickly dissolving together into the air.
In just a moment, the terrifying scene that had seemingly blotted out the sky and sun hadpletely vanished, as if it had never appeared in the first ce.
I have to say, these diverse spells are really amazing, remarked Leo Ray as his face disyed a hint of surprise upon seeing the clear skies.
Quinn Serena and the others at his side began to wipe the sweat off their foreheads and, along with the surrounding illusions, revealed expressions of joy and astonishment, seemingly fully immersing themselves in this illusion realm.
On the other side, seeing that the crisis had been resolved, the young Chosen Captain did not stay in mid-air.
Instead, the Magic Wings behind him oscited, and he once again transformed into a dazzling meteor with a purple tail, rushing towards the gray-robed Tier 5 magic proficient in the distance.
It looks like he wants to get rid of the weak ones first, Leo Ray thought to himself while continuing to watch the scene. However, those two Tier 5 powerhouses on the other side are clearly not easy to deal with.
As expected, as the Chosen Captain sped off, the two Tier 5 White Haired Elders also raised their feet, enveloped in energy, and followed closely behind by walking on water without causing even a single ripple.
There was no doubt that with the energy boots under their feet.
Even Tier 3 Powerhouses could briefly stand on the waters surface, let alone Tier 5 powerhouses, who had already mastered the maniption of the vast energy within their bodies.
Not far away, the middle-aged Tier 5 magic proficient who hovered in mid-air also reacted quickly.
pping his Magic Wings, he unleashed a series of sharp giant Wind des in an attempt to block the Chosen Captains path, while simultaneously rapidly approaching the area where his two Tier 5 counterparts were.
Due to the already impressive movement speed of an Anemo Magician, right when the Chosen Captains wide-de sword was about to pierce his opponent, a thunderous crash could be heard.
With a dull metallic collision sound, the shield-wielding Tier 5 White Haired Elder had just arrived in time, his burly body, like an immovable, towering mountain, blocking the attack directly.
Immediately afterward, numerous semi-transparent giant Wind des and a long-handle battle axe with a glint of cold light arrived, violently charging towards the young Chosen Captain.
On the other side, after easily dodging his opponents fierce assault with his flexible and ever-changing form.
The Chosen Captain didnt hesitate and quickly leaped into the air, transforming once again into a purple light and rushing towards the gray-robed Tier 5 magic proficient without dy.
This time, as the young captain chose to dive from the sky for his attack,
the two Tier 5 Physical Proficients didnt hesitate and burst upwards from the ground, facing him head-on.
As Tier 5 physical powerhouses, although they didnt have Magic Wings and couldnt move freely in mid-air,
they could easily leap to great heights at an incredible speed, something ordinary people could hardly achieve.
As the distance closed between the three, and meleebat seemed imminent,
the young Chosen Son of God suddenly halted in mid-air, changed direction, and sped past the two iing Tier 5 White Haired Elders.
He then rushed straight towards the nearby, gray-robed Tier 5 magic proficient, who had a surprised look on his face.
This took ce in a split-second, and by the time Leo Ray and the others had realized what was happening,
a loud Boom! sounded, apanied by dazzling purple lightning shes.
The gray-robed Tier 5 magic proficient had beenunched into the air without suspense, struggling painfully as he hung dozens of meters in the air before finally managing to steady himself.
However, from his somewhat dispirited posture, it was clear that he had sustained a considerable injury.
My Lord, that Tier 5 magic proficient must have some kind of defensive life-saving equipment on him.
Otherwise, the powerful magic martial arts technique just now would have likely taken his life,mented Gideon ck, pushing his gold-rimmed sses up the bridge of his nose and bowing towards Leo Ray.
I see, Leo Ray nodded slightly, still attentively watching the battle unfolding in the distance, his eyes burning with excitement.
Under the protection of one defensively skilled and one offensively skilled Tier 5 powerhouse,
this young Chosen Son of God managed to easily break through the defenses of the two and severely injure the rear Tier 5 magic proficient.
And this was all happening while the strength of the individuals concerned was almost equal.
Undeniably, such a scene was exhrating to behold.
Is this the fighting style of a Tier 5 Magic and Martial Arts Dual Powerhouse?
Looking at the young captain who was once again fighting the three opponents without falling behind at all,
Leo Ray couldnt help but murmur to himself, Not only does it fullybine the flexibility of magic powerhouses who can fight in the air with the strong closebat ability of physical powerhouses,
but it also uses magic, which physical powerhouses fear, against the two Tier 5 White Haired Elders and physical attacks, which magic proficient fear, against the gray-robed Tier 5 Magic System Expert.
Such a battle is simply unmatched.
Realizing this, Leo couldnt help but excitedly rub his hands together.
Without a doubt, this young Chosen Captain provided significant inspiration for Leo Ray, who was also a Magic and Martial Dual Cultivation expert.
However, just as Leos heart was racing with excitement,
An unforeseen event suddenly urred before them, catching everyone off guard and happening right before their eyes.
Chapter 450 - 350: Speculation About the Era of Emptiness【5K】_1
Chapter 450: Chapter 350: Spection About the Era of Emptiness5K_1
Trantor:549690339
At this moment, not far from the seas surface, the battle between the young captain and three Tier 5 Powerhouses was still fiercely raging.
The murderous intent on the faces of these four Tier 5 Powerhouses was so overwhelming, capable of splitting mountains and cracking rocks. Their powerful attacks repeatedly broke out, causing lightning and raging winds to st all around them.
As their vast energies collided and deafening booms erupted, gigantic waves taller than the mountains swept across the seas surface.
The aftershock of the waves kept sshing salty seawater onto the open-air deck where everyone was, leaving it drenched.
For a time, the sky was filled with turbulent clouds, and the sea was surging. The scene was incredibly shocking.
However, while the battle escted between the four fighters
Without any warning, the young Chosen Son of God and the three Tier 5 Powerhouses suddenly ceased their movements simultaneously. Their sharp gazes quickly turned toward the sky in the distance, apparently sensing something.
Other illusions on the ship also reacted quickly and looked in the same direction.
Next, everyones expressions, including the young Chosen Son of God and three powerful Tier 5 Powerhouses, changed from disbelief to overwhelming shock.
The next second, giant waves a hundred times more frightening than before swept through and crazily engulfed everything in their path with lightning speed!
In an instant, the three giant ships from the opposing faction were torn apart by the raging waves and vanished into the surging sea.
For a moment, the whole scene was like the apocalypse had descended.
Just as the sudden torrential wave carried unstoppable force
Without any suspense, it swallowed the four Tier 5 Powerhouses in its path and continued to approach the three-masted giant ship where everyone else was.
At that moment, the roar of the waves, terrified screams of the surrounding illusions, and the cracking sounds of the wooden ship came to an abrupt halt.
Apanied by a dazzling sh of light before their eyes, everyone suddenly found themselves back in the dark and damp underground cave.
Since all this happened in the blink of an eye
Leo Ray, after quite some time, finally came to his senses as he stared at the faint luminescence emitted by the magic moss and the now decrepit ship.
Gideon ck and the others also looked at each other with lingering fears.
As for Quinn Serena and the three other lords, except for her managing to remain standing
The remaining M, Gabriel Jordan, and Patrick Pain had all fallen onto the deck, their faces pale with fear, gasping for breath.
Seeing this, Leo Ray, equally shocked, could not help but take a deep breath and tried to calm his restless heart.
That sudden, seemingly all-consuming colossal wave had undoubtedly exceeded everyones expectations.
I remember hearing from Jasper Richardson at the Elf Relics that during the Era of nkness three thousand years ago, the one thing that could be confirmed
Was thatrge-scale wars and disasters had taken ce, leading to many ancient cities from various tribes beingpletely wrecked.
At this moment, looking at the worn-out ship beneath him that came from three thousand years ago, Leo Ray continued to think, From this, its clear that if I am not mistaken
This ships tragic demise was likely the result of such a cmity.
With this thought, Leo Ray slowly paced towards the now shabby circr helm, continuing to ponder, Speaking of which,bined with the disappearance of the Chosen Sons from various tribes during the Era of nkness
And King Wests conjecture about the gods neglecting this world for some reason after the Era of nkness
These scattered clues, if analyzed and deduced, could easily lead to the conclusion that
A full-scale war between Ten Thousand ns and the Gods might have taken ce back then.
In the end, divine punishment from the furious gods led to the destruction of many majestic cities from various ns and the disappearance of their Chosen Sons.
Realizing this, Leo Ray gently caressed the faded wooden texture on the ancient helm
Continuing to think, However, if this is indeed the case, a new question emerges
Since the Ten Thousand ns were punished by the gods, the gods should have been more vignt, reminding the ns of this lesson.
Yet why is there a gap in history, the so-called Era of nkness, causing all the ns to forget everything? This clearly defies logic.
As he felt the rough, damp touch of the worn helm partially covered by the magic moss
Leo Ray frowned and fell deep into thought: More importantly, how do we exin the fact that the billions of Otherworldly Lords traversed multiple realms?
Thats right, and the catastrophe that might ur in the future
At this point, Leo Ray could not help but shake his head in frustration, murmuring to himself: All in all, this matter is definitely much moreplicated than I imagined
There must be more secrets hidden within, unknown to the world. And if Im not mistaken
Chapter 451 - 350: Conjectures about the Era of Emptiness【5K】_2
Chapter 451: Chapter 350: Conjectures about the Era of Emptiness5K_2
Trantor:549690339
No matter whether it was the mysterious Era of nkness that appeared three thousand years ago, the gods no longer showing favor, the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God, or the early traversal by King West over six hundred years ago.
Or now, the advent of our billion lords, the impending catastrophe.
All of these must have some potential connection.
At this point, Leo Ray took another deep breath and refocused his attention on the giant ship in front of him.
With a puzzled expression again, he said, Speaking of which, from the situation in the Illusion Realm just now.
At thest moment of the Illusion Realms end, this giant ship should have also been shattered in the gigantic waves.
How did it appear here,pletely intact and unrted to the sea?
Or, as we spected before.
There really was a powerful space magic expert on this ship, who transported the entire ship elsewhere during the crisis?
Anyway, its better to focus on the next steps now.
With this in mind, Leo Rays furrowed brows rxed, and he stepped forward, treading on the creaking open-air deck.
He said to the people who had just returned from shock, Alright, everyone snap out of it.
Next, let us explore the cabins of this giant ship.
Yes, Lord! Taylor and Gideon ck, who had been guarding the surroundings, immediately bowed and said.
Even Quinn Serena and the others, who were still a bit shaken, also agreed and followed.
After easily opening the lower cabins entrance,
Following the lead of Taylor and Gideon ck, Leo Ray, holding the Light Crystal Stone, entered the interior of the giant ship.
As soon as he climbed the sturdy wooden staircase and entered the dimly lit cabin, a strong musty smell immediately filled Leo Rays nostrils.
Sniffing a little, and with the help of the glow from the Light Crystal Stone, Leo Ray noticed.
What first caught his eye was not a narrow corridor or a dense cabinyout, but still a spacious space.
In this wide space, ten Magic Cannons,pletely covered in dust, were arranged side by side near the sides of the ship.
At a nce, the front tips of these Magic Cannons were neatly arranged and stretched out of the hull through specially designed windows.
Theyout was almost identical to the open-air deck on the previous floor.
Lord, this is the Second Magic Cannon Deck. Gideon ck bowed slightly, Based on the shape of this giant ship, I found that.
There are three Magic Cannon Decks on this ship. The First Magic Cannon Deck, which is the previous open-air deck.
The Second Magic Cannon Deck we are currently on, and the Third Magic Cannon Deck on the lower level. And below that, the bast tank on the bottom level.
I see. Leo Ray nodded slightly and immediately instructed everyone to release the fixed Magic Cannons and then put them all into the [Dawn Eye].
At this point, there were 40 Tier 2 Fire Magic Cannons waiting to be repaired in the Storage Ring.
Lord, based on the design style of this giant ship, the main cabins should be concentrated at the bow. Gideon cks elegant voice sounded again in Leo Rays ears.
Understood, lets continue moving forward then. After emptying the Magic Cannons here, Leo Ray nodded contentedly, and continued to walk forward under Gideon cks guidance.
It didnt take long for the group to arrive at the front half of the Second Magic Cannon Deck.
Here, indeed, severalrge and small cabins appeared.
Upon closer inspection, these cabins were mostly open and had no special features.
After a search, Leo Ray found that the majority of these cabins were ordinary sailor dormitories, and many Magic Oak bunk beds, still as sturdy as ever.
Even the fur and other personal items ced on them could be vaguely discerned.
As for the ground, there were some rusty metal cups and empty wooden barrels scattered around.
At a nce, there was a strong sense of life, as if the sailors on the ship would return at any time, but everything was covered in a thickyer of dust.
Aside from that, no other valuable items were found.
Next, the group entered a cabin that was clearly a kitchen.
In this cabin, one could observe arge metal pot on a stone-built stove.
Taking off the spotted dusty lid, there was ayer of ck unidentified substance stuck to the pot wall and apletely rusted metaldle.
And around some storage barrels and cabs, there was mostly ayer of ck as well.
Lord, these ck substances are all thepletely rotten food residues.
After carefully examining for a moment, Taylor stepped forward and bowed to Leo Ray. In the iron pot, there is even a stew whose original appearance can no longer be recognized.
I see. Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
It was indeed normal for such thorough changes to have urred over such a long period of time.
Boss Shawn Sands, have you noticed a problem?

Chapter 452: Chapter 350: Conjectures About the Era of Emptiness5K_3
Trantor: 549690339
On the other side, a puzzled look appeared on Quinn Serenas delicate face, as she asked, We havent found a single corpse on our way here.
Captain Quinn, isnt that a pretty normal thing?
Hearing this, Gabriel Jordan scratched his head, confused. Back then, the people on the ship must have left because of some emergency, leaving this huge ship behind.
But all the personal belongings in the cabins are still here, and even the pots still have food cooking.
This fact is unavoidably puzzling. Quinn Serena furrowed her brow slightly and continued.
That is indeed the case. Not far away, Leo Ray nodded slightly. He had naturally noticed these details as well.
However, just like Gabriel had mentioned,
At this stage, apart from the sailors on the ship leaving in a hurry, not having time to take their belongings, there really isnt any other reasonable spection.
Never mind, based on the current situation, there is only one possible exnation.
Leo Ray pondered for a moment and then concluded, That is, three thousand years ago, after encountering that sudden huge wave,
Someone on the ship, in order to avoid the catastrophe, used a powerful teleportation magic or a corresponding advanced magic scroll.
They teleported the entire ship to this underground cave.
In the end, the people on the ship had to abandon it due to some emergency, resulting in the current situation.
Lord is absolutely right. Gideon ck thought for a moment and slightly bowed, This is indeed the most reasonable spection.
Alright, lets continue our search. Leo Ray nodded slightly, lifting the Light Crystal Stone in his hand and moving on.
Later, after conducting a careful investigation,
The group did not find anything new on this floor.
Then, they used the nearby staircase to reach the third Magic Cannon Deck below.
In the front half of the third Magic Cannon Deck, besides a simryout like the previous floor, Leo Ray and the others also discovered a newrge cabin.
Upon entering it, Leo Ray noticed,
This cabin was exceedingly spacious, with more than a hundred square meters of area, but theyout was extremely simple.
Only on one side of the cabin wall, near the hull, there were tworge semi-transparent crystals embedded.
Carefully observing, the tworge Crystal Stones, each measuring a cubic meter, appear as perfect cubes.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone, despite being covered by ayer of dust, they still gave off a crystal-clear feeling, unable to hide their original brilliance.
Furthermore, on the surface of the crystals, one could vaguely see strange magic patterns formed by various lines, seemingly quite incredible.
So thats what it is! A joyful expression appeared on Leo Rays face when he saw this.
He would, of course, not be unfamiliar with such semi-transparent crystal stones.
These were the Barrier Crystals he had once discovered in a cave in the Old Mine District of Golin City, along with Solomon Rue, Sylvia Moore, Ss Brooks, and the other five lords.
At that time, Leo Ray had found two of them.
One of them contained an unknown barrier from an unknown race, which could only be activated by magic powerhouses with the corresponding racial bloodline.
The other one waspletely vacant, and could store a new barrier for their own use.
As we all know, building various functional magic barriers is undoubtedly a very time-consuming andborious task.
This point can be seen from the situation of the Mage Squad building the Eye of Insight previously.This kind of barrier crystal that can be directly deployed with the corresponding magical power is undoubtedly an extremely convenient item.
Thinking of this, the joy on Leo Rays face became even more evident.
My Lord, it seems that this is the magic barrier cabin of this giant ship.
On the other side, Gideon ck, pushing the gold-rimmed sses on the bridge of his nose, bowed to Leo Ray and said, During the battle, there will be arge number of magic powerhouses gathered here to supply magical power to the two barrier crystals simultaneously.
I see, said Leo Ray, nodding slightly. He walked over and muttered, So that means the two barrier crystals contain that powerful defensive barrier seen earlier in the illusion that can withstand the magic cannon?
When he approached the barrier crystal, among his excitement, Leo Ray opened the attribute column of one of them.
[Name: Barrier Crystal]
[Resource Level: 4 (Rare)]
[Size: 100cm*100cm*100cm]
[Purity: A+ grade]
[Stored Barrier: Fortress Wall]
[Remarks: This is a high-quality barrier crystal, installed on the gship of a legendary human n maritime overlord.
It stores an efficient defensive magic barrier, which is capable of blocking all physical and magical attacks from external enemies, without affecting the counterattacks from those inside the barrier. It can only be activated by the magic system experts of the human n and requires at least 100 Tier 2 magic system experts or powerhouses with equivalent strength to maintain the barriers normal operation.]
So, the two almost identical barrier crystals both store a barrier called Fortress Wall?
Seeing this, Leo Ray excitedly rubbed his hands together and thought, In this way, as long as it is ced within the territory, it would have a great effect if any outside enemies invade. Ill research the effective rangeter.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking of this, the two equally sized barrier crystals were carefully removed by Taylor.
Also, the crystals were wiped clean by Abigail, who was carrying cleaning supplies with her and using a special magic cloth to wipe them. They became bright and shiny again.
After receiving Leo Rays storage ring, the various subordinates naturally kept many of their personal items in it.
Very well, Leo Ray nodded at the two and casually put both barrier crystals into the space bracelet.
Seeing this, the four Lords, including Quinn Serena, didnt say anything.
Just now, they had also examined the attribute column of the barrier crystals, but their magic system experts were in extremely short supply at this stage.
Let alone 100 Tier 2 magic system experts, it would be quite rare to recruit even one more Tier 1 expert.
Therefore, this kind of thing was of no use to them.
It would be better to ask Boss Shawn Sandster if he could exchange for some useful equipment.
Thinking of this, Quinn Serena nced at Leo Ray, who was beaming nearby, and couldnt help but swallow her saliva.
Without a doubt, judging from Boss Shawn Sandss expression, he had apparently met this condition that people looked up to
On the other hand, Leo Ray, who had just put the two barrier crystals into his bag, smiled and said to everyone, Then lets continue to see what other good things are on this giant ship.
Chapter 453 - 351: Continuing to Explore the Ancient Ship_1
Chapter 453: Chapter 351: Continuing to Explore the Ancient Ship_1
Trantor: 549690339
After leaving the magic shield cabin, Leo Rays group of six, along with Quinn Serenas group of four, continued their search on the third Magic Cannon Decks cabin area.
I have to say, the space inside this giant ship is even more spacious than I imagined.
After stepping out of another sailors dormitory, Leo Ray looked at the rustic yet sturdy corridor in front of him and couldnt help but raise his eyebrows, marveling in his heart, Speaking of which,
this so-called magic oak wood, which is said to require magic irrigation, is truly amazing. The ships hull, wooden beds, and barrels made from it,
After all these long years, apart from a slight mold, they can still be so durable.
Just as Leo Ray thought about this,
Scarlett called out from ahead, My Lord,e and take a look!
When Leo Ray arrived at Scarletts location, he noticed,
This was a luxurious room, and he could see several ckened paintings on the walls around the room, their original appearancepletely faded away.
In the corner near the door, there were several metal pots covered in magic moss.
However, the most eye-catching was arge piece of parchment hanging near the ships side in the room.
A luxurious desk and a boss chair stood in front of the parchment, surrounded by neatly arranged wooden cabs.
Just like in the other cabins, a thickyer of dust covered every corner, imbuing the room with a sense of ancient vicissitudes.
And it could be clearly seen,
To prevent the ship from rocking, these pieces of furniture were all firmly fixed to the deck and walls, just like in the sailors dormitories.
At that time, Gideon ck stepped forward and said to Leo Ray with a slight bow, It appears that this is the captains office, my lord.
Understood.
While gesturing for everyone to investigate further, Leo Ray came to the front of the parchment.
Upon closer inspection, Leo Ray saw,
The ancient yellowish parchment waspletely empty and did not have any patterns on it. However, there seemed to be a faint energy fluctuation emitting from it.
At this point, Gideon ck meditated for a moment and then exined, My Lord, this should be an extremely rare magic map. The so-called magic map,
is drawn entirely with magic power and requires specific spells to activate it. Otherwise, it would appear as a nk sheet of paper under normal circumstances.
This kind of miraculous technology has been very rare since the Era of nkness.
However, please rest assured, my lord, if we can find a master in this field, we can still reactivate it.
So it is.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and pondered in his heart, I originally wanted to use this map to further confirm the location of this giant ship at the time.
However, since weve already learned of the Blood Sea in the Illusion Realm, weve already made some progress.
In that case, Ill put this map away for now. Its not yet clear whether it wille in handy in the future.
After all, theres no way this giant ship went on vacation to the Blood Sea alone, right?
With that in mind, Leo Ray put the map directly into his Space Bracelet.
Subsequently, after a careful search,
Leo Ray and the others did not find anything else, and they left the captains room.
In the process, Leo Ray took all the items in the room that could fit into the Space Bracelet, in case they might be neededter.
This move left Quinn Serena and the others dumbfounded and swallowing hard.
After thoroughly investigating the front half of the third Magic Cannon Deck,
Leo Ray and the others continued to the rear half, where the magic cannons were stored.
After some struggle, the number of Tier 2 Fire Magic Cannons in need of repair on Leo Rays body has now increased to 60.
Shortly after, they continued down the wooden staircase,
and the group arrived at thest level of the giant ship, the bast tank that kept the hull stable.
This time, what first caught Leo Rays gaze was still a vast space, but the overall structure waspletely different from the previousyers.
At this point, Leo Ray noticed,
On the walls and floors of this room,rge, crystal clear hexagonal prisms were uniformly embedded.
Upon closer inspection, these translucent crystals had a Crystal Cluster Structure and looked like blooming Crystal Flowers, which were dazzling to the eye.
And unlike the Barrier Crystals before,
The surface of these crystals was exceptionally clean, contrasting sharply with the surrounding worn walls and floor.
Examining closely, in each crystal, faint streams of white energy could be seen flowing back and forth, appearing quite magical.
Under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone, brilliant light reflected off the crystals, giving the impression of entering a unique Crystal Pce.
The Lords such as Quinn Serena undoubtedly found these crystals very unfamiliar.
But for Leo Ray, it couldnt be more familiar.
Chapter 454 - 351: Continuing to Explore the Ancient Ship_2
Chapter 454: Chapter 351: Continuing to Explore the Ancient Ship_2
Trantor:549690339
It turns out theyre all Demon Energy Luminous Crystals! Looking at the neatly arrangedrge number of crystals in front of him, a hint of surprise appeared on Leo Rays face once again.
This rare and magical crystal, which can store arge amount of magical power, can not only provide energy for Magic Cannons in the absence of mages.
In addition, it can also power anything that requires magical support, such as Magic Barriers, and its applications are extremely wide-ranging!
The reason these crystals appear here is quite clear: thisrge cabin must be the Magic Power Cabin of this huge ship.
At this point, Leo Ray first signaled his subordinates to start dismantling the Demon Energy Luminous Crystals.
Then he rubbed his hands excitedly, pondering secretly in his heart: Before this, I had gotten Demon Energy Luminous Crystals on two asions.
Once was at the Immortal Gate in front of the abandoned mine in Golin City, and the other was in the Elf Underground City at the edge of Penelopes territory.
Together, these two times amounted to only 300 crystals.
Among them, 20 crystals and 20 Tier 2 Space-type Magic Cannons were secretly deployed in Cyan Town.
But the Demon Energy Luminous Crystals here are obviously far more numerous than what I had obtained before!
Feeling excited, Leo Ray strolled slowly in the cabin, which was shining brightly everywhere.
Continuing to ponder, he thought: Before this, I was somewhat worried. As Scarlett repairs and puts the newly obtained Magic Cannons into use, there will inevitably be a significant shortage of Demon Energy Luminous Crystals. After all, now we only have Daisy Sasha as the Tier 2 Mage Squad that can easily supply energy to the Magic Cannons on our side.
As for Cyan Town, Maron City, and Ma Town, although there are some scattered Tier 1 Mage Squadrons, their capacity is limited and they can only use Magic Cannons with the help of Demon Energy Luminous Crystals, unable to providerge-scale energy supply on their own.
The arrival of these new Demon Energy Luminous Crystals undoubtedly eases this issue greatly!
With this thought in his mind, Leo Ray took another step and continued to open the attribute columns of more Demon Energy Luminous Crystals.
He found that the energy of these Demon Energy Luminous Crystals is almost depleted, with only about 5% remaining, which is not enough to evenunch a Magic Cannon.
Upon realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a thoughtful expression and fell into deep thought: At the moment, there are 32 charging bases in the Guardian Defense Mechanism.
And to fully charge the magical power stored in Demon Energy Luminous Crystals, ording to previous experience, it would take about 6 hours.
That is to say, even counting the Guardians currently being charged, more than 100 crystals can still be fully charged in a day.
At this stage, it would be sufficient, but if there is a way to increase charging efficiency a bit more, that would be even better.
Just as Leo Ray reached this point in his thoughts.
On the other side, Quinn Serena looked at Gabriel Jordan, M, and Patrick Pain with some difficulty and exchanged nces with the three Lords.
She then took a deep breath, took a graceful step forward, and tentatively asked Leo Ray, Boss Shawn Sands.
Those damaged Magic Cannons, two Barrier Crystals, and these nearly depleted Demon Energy Luminous Crystals are not very useful to us. However, they seem to be of great use to Boss Shawn Sands.
So we wont take these items, but in return, could Boss Shawn Sands exchange them for some other items for us?
Hearing that, Leo Ray nodded slightly, signaling the other party to continue speaking.
Seeing Leo Rays approving expression, Quinn Serenas delicate face brightened, and she hastily added, After discussing it, we want some Tier 1 metal weapons and armor.
As for the quantity, the best would be20 sets for each person
After saying that, Quinn Serena couldnt help but swallow her saliva, and the other Lords also had a look of expectation mixed with desire on their faces.
It is important to know that at this stage, the price of a Tier 1 metal weapon is quite expensive.
It generally requires a Lord with a Level 3 Mansion and a poption of 30 to 40 subordinates to exchange their entire days production for one weapon.
And 20 sets of weapons and armor, based on the current production capacity, would amount to the workload of a Lord for 40 days.Therefore, for people like Quinn Serena and others, this was undoubtedly an astronomical number.
After all, their Lane No.9 Club and the Lords of hermits added together amounted to more than 20 people.
So its just a few hundred sets of Tier 1 equipment? Hearing the other partys request, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows, and couldnt help but feel a little surprised for a moment.
Of course, the reason Leo Ray was surprised.
It was just because the other partys request was too low, and it hardly ounted for even a tiny fraction of his own equipment reserves.
Moreover, Leo Ray was nning to foster a part of the loyal lord power to himself.
In this way, not only can it better y the role of restraining Coldme forces, but it can also appear as an unexpected move to catch the enemy off guard.
After all, at this stage, to fight against the vast Coldme Kingdom with ones own strength is undoubtedly a mission impossible.
Not to mention the mysterious organization that is about to move in secret.
Therefore, while continuously umting strength, it is naturally the best development strategy to foster some lord power appropriately.
Currently, on the west side of the territory, there are three cities, Cyan Town, Mn Town, and Ma Town, which serve as the first line of defense against Coldme.
Furthermore, Mn Town and Ma Town are still under Coldmes jurisdiction and can be used as unexpected moves. The river on the west side can also serve as the second line of defense.
On the east side of the territory is the living area of the Snow Feather Tribe, and on the south side is the Barrier of the Moonwhite Tribe.
In addition to the natural barriers of the Hundred Ranges in the north of the territory and the city walls and city gates that are being improved in the dense forest, all these make my sphere of influence begin to take shape.
Also, the matter of subduing Ariel, the Fifth Princess of Coldme Kingdom, is also being carried out in full swing.
The main task today is to prepare to go to Mystara City, further understand the situation of Holy Light General Joshua, andpletely bring the territory of the Fashia n, Mystara City, under my rule.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,
On the other side, Quinn Serena and the other four Lords looked at each other with some confusion, as Leo Rays face showed a hint of surprise, they all thought that Leo Ray would disagree with their distribution n.
After all, they hadnt made any contributions on their journey except for running errands.
Just as the four Lords were somewhat at a loss, Leo Ray smiled lightly and said: No problem, but I have some things to doter.
Lets put off the matter of giving you the equipment until tonight.
After speaking, Leo Rays thoughts moved, and four Body Strengthening Pills of Tier First level, with the same function as the Qi Condensing Pill, appeared in his palm.
While handing over these magic medicines to them one by one, Leo Ray continued: These things will serve as a reward for your performance during this journey.
As for the specific effects, you can check the attribute column yourself. Remember, if there are such treasure hunts next time, you will only get more.
This is? After taking the magic medicine handed by Leo Ray, after a moment of being stunned, a look of uncontroble ecstasy appeared on Quinn Serenas delicate face.
She had heard about this miraculous item called the magic medicine from her subordinates before, and knew that it was extremely valuable.
This Body Strengthening Pill, which could permanently enhance strength, was undoubtedly one of the most precious of them, and it could turn her, a Tier 1 Seven-Star, directly into a Tier 1 Peak Strength!
As for Gabriel Jordan, M, and Patrick Pain on the side, they all had a look of excitement.
The three of them hadnt even condense their energy vortexes sessfully, and this magical medicine with an enchanting fragrance would undoubtedly allow them to truly step into the threshold of cultivation!
While the four Lords were excited,
Leo Ray had already collected all the Demon Energy Luminous Crystals taken down by Taylor and other strong men in his team into his bag.
Good guy, there are actually as many as 500 of them?
After a while, after clearing out the power cabin of the giant ship, Leo Rays face showed a trace of surprise once again.
Chapter 455 - 352: The Shocking Illusion Crystal and Quinn Serena
Chapter 455: Chapter 352: The Shocking Illusion Crystal and Quinn Serena
Trantor:549690339
And so, afterpletely emptying the entire magic power cabin.
Leo Ray and the group of ten thoroughly searched the remaining area on thestyer, without finding anything else of value.
At this point, this ancient tri-mast warship from before the Era of nkness was thoroughly investigated.
This time, the harvest is really rich.
At this moment, Leo Ray, who had returned to the open deck, first stretchedzily and then walked toward the griffin figurehead at the bow of the ship.
He eximed in his heart: Not only have I obtained 60 Tier 2 Fire Magic Cannons awaiting repair, 2 Barrier Crystals storing powerful defensive shields, and 500 Demon Energy Luminous Crystals.
Although the damaged Magic Cannons need repairs, and the depleted Demon Energy Luminous Crystals need recharging.
But once these tasks arepleted, the defense capabilities of the territory and surrounding areas will undeniably have an epic enhancement!
With joy and excitement, Leo Ray, walking on the creaking deck, showed a thoughtful expression: By the way, besides these items.
Whats more important is naturally what I just saw in the illusion.
In the Illusion Realm, I not only saw for the first time a Chosen Son of God who had disappeared for thousands of years, but also a glimpse of the iceberg of the catastrophe at that time.
It has to be said that the huge waves that can swallow everything and leave even a Tier 5 Powerhouse powerless are indeed unforgettable.
As he thought about this, Leo Rays throat moved, and he involuntarily swallowed saliva, continuing to ponder: Speaking of which, I wonder what happened to that Chosen Son of God in the end.
However, being able to reach a dual-system Tier 5 Powerhouse at such an age is really a terrifying existence.
Perhaps in the future, I can find other clues about this Chosen Son of God.
As Leo Ray thought about this, he had reached the bow with the rusted metal gryphon statue.
Now its time to take this.
At this moment, Leo Ray nced at the empty right eye of the griffins eagle face holding the dragon w, which was still faintly shing red light, and then nodded to Gideon ck nearby.
Lord, it has been taken off.
A momentter, the fist-sized Illusion Crystal, like a red gem, was respectfully handed over by Gideon ck.
Is this the Illusion Crystal? Taking the crystal and feeling the cold and slippery touch, Leo Ray directly opened the Attribute Column of this round, strange crystal.
[Name: Illusion Crystal]
[Resource Grade: 5( Rare)]
[Size: 10cm]
[Purity: S-ss]
[Energy: 0%]
[Remark: This is apletely depleted Illusion Crystal, which records a scene from three thousand years ago and is partially damaged.
Only senior Illusionists can possibly repair it again. Once activated, it will create an illusion realm within a certain area, reproducing the scene of that year.]
It seems that the damaged part should refer to the situation in the Illusion Realm where I couldnt sense the energy fluctuations of the illusions, right?
After closing the Attribute Column, Leo Ray nodded slightly and casually put the Illusion Crystal into the Space Bracelet.
On the other side, still immersed in joy, Quinn Serena and the other three lords saw this, and naturally wouldnt have any thoughts.
This time, the four of them not only got a precious magic medicine that could permanently enhance their strength.
Moreover, all the lords who signed up to participate in the exploration also received 20 sets of Tier 1 equipment!
Thinking about this, joy overflowed on Quinn Serenas fair face.
If Boss Shawn Sands hadnt been there at that time.
Under Levi Marshalls scheming and threats, Lane No.9 Club either would have be cannon fodder or missed the chance to participate in the exploration, almost having no possibility of getting any items.
It can be imagined that if this happened to the Lane No.9 Club.
Those Lords of Hermits, apart from being used as tools and cannon fodder, wouldnt have a share of the spoils even more.
In the end, all they could do was suffer aplete loss and also a high possibility of facing life-threatening danger.
But now, not only did they not suffer any casualties, but also got all these things, which is like a dream!
You know, although Tier First equipment does not require equipment blueprints and can be produced directly.
However, it must meet two stringent conditions:
First, you need to build the corresponding cksmith shop or craft workshop. The former can forge metal weapons and armor, while thetter can make bows and arrows, leather armor, and other equipment.
Only these two special buildings haveplete tools and supporting facilities toplete the equipment production.
Of course, if you have the corresponding tools, you can ignore this point.
Secondly, there is no doubt that it requires appropriate forging or crafting skills from the subordinates.
They are still rtively rare at this time. Among the ten-odd lords nearby, only one has sessfully recruited a Tier 1 subordinate who can forge.
However, if a lord is already proficient in these two skills before crossing over, they can also do it themselves.
After all, some lords in the Chat Channel who are good at this have begun to release detailed tutorials on forging weapons and making leather armor one after another.
Chapter 456 - 352: The Illusory Realm Crystal and Qin Qian’s Shock_2
Chapter 456: Chapter 352: The Illusory Realm Crystal and Qin Qians Shock_2
Trantor: 549690339
Thinking of this, Quinn Serenas long eyshes fluttered slightly, as she continued pondering in her heart, However, this is no easy job.
Even the professional cksmith subordinate in our Lane No.9 Club can only forge a crude iron sword in a day.
More importantly, both building a cksmith shop and building a craft workshop require a significant amount of iron ore and copper ore, which are fundamental to upgrading to a Fourth-ss Mansion.
Especially when ites to forging metal equipment, arge amount of copper and iron ore is also needed as basic materials This has led to the high price of metal equipment.
After all, copper and iron ore are essential resources that every lord needs.
As Quinn Serena tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear, she sighed softly, At present, our Lane No.9 Club has luckily discovered two ore veins, one copper mine and one iron mine.
However, the progress of mining is extremely slow, and we can only explore slowly whilemunicating with other lords in the Chat Channel who are also experiencing the same.
In a nutshell, I hope we can recruit a subordinate who is proficient in mining soon.
At this moment, looking at Leo Rays tall figure, a look of joy appeared on Quinns lovely face, and she thought to herself, This time, each of us got 20 sets of Tier 1 equipment.
Undoubtedly, this can greatly enhance thebat and survival abilities of our subordinates, forming a formidable force.
Most crucially, we also met Boss Shawn Sands, such a strong and mysterious character!
As she thought and reveled in excitement, Serenas face showed confusion, and she muttered to herself, But, Ive never heard of such a ruthless person in the Master Leo Fan Club before, which makes me puzzled.
Realizing this, Quinn suddenly remembered the word congrattions written by Lincoln Wilde in his reply, and she couldnt help but ponder, Could it be that Lincoln knew about Boss Shawn Sands strength from the very beginning?
You know, hes always active in the Chat Channel. If Lane No.6 had such a powerful character like Boss Shawn Sands, he would definitely brag about it to us
Upon thinking this, Quinn felt as if she had realized something, and that faint feeling in her heart became stronger and stronger.
At this moment, her chest heaved up and down, and disbelief filled her face, Could it be that the true identity of this Boss Shawn Sands is the legendary figure among the ten billion lords of the Earth?!
While Quinns thoughts were running wild, on the other side, Leo Ray slowly moved his gaze from the giant metal gryphon figurehead in front of him, and said, Since weve finished exploring this ce, its time for us to leave.
Yes, Lord! Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, Abigail, and Bianca White saluted and responded in unison.
Quinn also quickly came back to her senses, along with Gabriel Jordan, M, and Patrick Pain, and responded together.
Thus, the group of ten people returned along the way they came, passing through the vast and magnificent areas formed by various stctites, stgmites, and underground rivers under the illumination of the magical moss.
Finally, the dazzling sunlight appeared in front of everyone again through the narrow entrance.
Next, as Leo Ray passed through the entrance and returned to the bright world outside, the prompt for Quinn and the others to send friend requests also reached his ear.
Alright, we should also leave.
After a while, feeling the fresh and natural air in the outside world, Leo Ray smiled faintly and spoke to Quinn, Gabriel, M, and Patrick who had just climbed out of the opening.
Then, before they could react, a sh of light appeared, and an enormous white wolf suddenly appeared.
As it shook its head and wagged its tail, its fluffy fur rippled in the air, and the exposed fangs in its mouth reflected a cold light in the sunlight, looking extremely majestic.Immediately after, Leo Ray easily jumped onto the wolfs back and said, By the way, about my information, dont reveal it to anyone else for now, other than you guys.
When the time is ripe, I will appear before you again.
The very next second, a deep wolf howl resounded.
Before Quinn Serena and the others could react, a whirlwind suddenly stirred up out of nowhere.
Leo Ray and the other five had already turned into streaks of light, instantly disappearing before the four lords.
Almost at the same time, a thunderous voice sounded in each of their ears.
[Lord Leo Ray No. 0013076067 has epted your friend request!]
Upon hearing the content of the prompt, Quinn Serena and the others, who had juste out of their daze, opened their mouths wide in shock, unable to suppress their astonishment.
This name, which had repeatedly exploded in the global announcements, was no stranger to these Otherworldly Lords!
So it really is him After a long moment of stupor, Quinn Serenas starry eyes sparkled. Her well-proportioned body trembled slightly, barely believing her own ears.
Having left the mountain stream and donned their Invisibility Cloaks again, the six of them resumed their journey towards Mystara City.
Although Orion Wolfe and Amelia had already gone ahead to their destination,
Abigail in the team still knew the exact location of Mystara City.
After all, although Mystara City was smaller in scalepared to the nearer Viennas City and could only be considered a small city,
It was still quite famous within Coldme Kingdom for its unique style.
ording to Orion Wolfe, Mystara City was built on a circr ind within ake, and when viewed from the air, it resembles a full moon in the water, hence its name.
Although theke is small and can only be called a slightly wider natural Protective City River,
Mystara City remains a popr tourist destination in the surrounding area, an ideal ce to vacation with its pleasant winters and cool summers.
At the same time, this is the most important pir industry for Mystara City.
As Leo Ray sped along with the wind whooshing in his ears, he continued to ponder, However, in recent years,
to support Orion Wolfes study as an alchemist, the financial situation of her family isnt optimistic, so much so that her father, the City Lord of Mystara, even had to reduce the number of soldiers,
in order to maintain the enormous costs of Orions alchemy.
Of course, I have already filled that gap before.
I should have Orions family call those soldiers backter.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray smirked and continued to ponder, Additionally, due to the City Lords full support of Orions alchemy,
other elders in the family were dissatisfied with the matter, which is undoubtedly a potential threat that needs to be resolved.
Furthermore, in addition to incorporating Mystara City into our sphere of influence,
We must quickly investigate Holy Light General Joshuas situation and try to win him over as soon as possible.
This Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse will undoubtedly be of great help to me in terms of both strength and other aspects.
Oh, by the way, that girl Orion should have been back in Mystara City for some time now.
Knowing her spoiled temperament, the City Lord Mansion must have been in chaos already, right?
As Leo Ray thought about this, his mind talk suddenly rang.
Feeling puzzled, after connecting, Orion Wolfes panicked voice immediately reached Leo Rays ear, Lord, pleaseplease save me!
Hearing this, while feeling somewhat surprised, Leo Rays expression instantly turned solemn.
Chapter 457 - 353: The Mysterious Disappearance_1
Chapter 457: Chapter 353: The Mysterious Disappearance_1
Trantor:549690339
Upon hearing Orion Wolfes cry for help, Leo Ray did not hesitate to ask for his exact location.
However, on the other end of themunication, only a series of sounds resembling interference could be heard.
Soon after that, everything stopped abruptly and themunication was automatically cut off.
What on earth has happened?
Surprised, Leo Ray immediately tried to reconnect but received a notification that the connection could not be established due to unknown reasons.
After several futile attempts, Leo Ray tried to connect to Amelia, who apanied Orion Wolfe, but the result was still the sameunable to contact either of them.
Next, to verify whether it was due to his own issue, Leo Ray connected to Belinda Wright who is situated far in his territory, and immediately heard the respectful response from the Half-Elf Girl.
It seems like things are getting a bit tricky.
After confirming that Orion Wolfe and Amelia had indeed encountered some sudden crisis,
Leo Ray contemted a bit, then informed Taylor and the others about the situation, saying, Move at full speed. Our priority is to go to Mystara City immediately.
Yes, my Lord! In response, his subordinates expressions turned stern and they replied in unison.
Having gone through a series of rapid movements,
As Leo Ray and his party flying swiftly over the peaks of the Pine Sound Range, they caught sight of a city on an ind within ake.
Upon closer inspection, it was just as Orion Wolfe had described.
This city was surrounded by water, and the outer city walls were not of ordinary square structure.
Instead, they were of regr circr shape and the stones used were rather white.
Under the brilliant sunlight, with the shimmeringke around it, the city indeed resembled a bright moon in the water, causing people to marvel at the sight.
A perfect natural protective city river, towering walls, and well-designed streets Truly a remarkable city.
At this moment, still on top of the peaks, Leo Rays eyes narrowed as he admired the distant city and couldnt help but praise it internally.
My Lord, something seems amiss with Mystara City
As Leo Ray observed carefully,
Abigails clear voice reached his ears throughmunication, Reporting to my Lord, this famous city within Coldme territory, I have visited it once.
I remember, besides the famous protective city river of Mystara City,
Another important sight is the city center, an ind within an ind, which is also the location of the City Lord Mansion.
Furthermore, as long as one paid a hefty sum of Gold Dragon, even ordinary civilians could enter the designated area of the City Lord Mansion for a visit after strict inspection.
However, the current city center seems somewhat empty
Oh? Upon hearing this, Leo Ray focused his attention, and a wisp of milky-white energy shed across his ck pupils.
After enhancing his vision to its limits, Leo Ray saw that there was nothing but an obviouske in the ind in the center of Mystara City.
He could not see any ind within an ind, let alone the City Lord Mansion built on it.
After a brief pause, Leo Ray finally reacted and eximed in surprise, Abigail, are you saying that the City Lord Mansion of Mystara City and the ind in the city center have both disappeared without a trace?
My Lord, it seems thats the case, Abigails equally incredulous voice came again, You must know that as one of the citysndmark buildings,
The City Lord Mansion of Mystara City is a majestic giant castle, farrger and sturdier than typical City Lord Mansions. This situation is simply unimaginable.
I never thought that there would be such an incredible thing It seems that if there are no idents,
Orion Wolfe and Amelia disappeared together with the entire small ind in the City Lord Mansion of Mystara City, which caused the two to lose contactpletely.
While moving swiftly, Leo Ray pondered with a furrowed brow for a while.
Then, he opened themunication and asked Gideon ck and Scarlett, Is it possible that a powerful space magic mage,
Directly teleported the entire ind in the city center away?
My Lord, just like the ship earlier, theoretically, this is indeed possible.
Hearing this, Gideon cks voice sounded in response, However, to my knowledge,
One important factor that determines the sess of a teleportation spell is the weight of the object to be teleported.
The weight of a small ind plus a castle undoubtedly far exceeds that of the tri-mast warship just now.
Therefore, even a Tier 5 Level space magic powerhouse would likely struggle to achieve this feat.
Indeed, thats true, Scarletts voice also reached Leo Rays ears, Moreover, my Lord, ording to the knowledge I acquired from the Magic Tower,
Even for an immensely powerful space mage, once they cast such arge-scale teleportation magic, they would inevitably leave arge amount of abnormal magical fluctuations in the surrounding area.
Furthermore, these abnormal magical fluctuations cannot be concealed and would persist for several days or even longer before they wouldpletely dissipate.

Chapter 458: Chapter 353: The Inexplicable Disappearance_2
Trantor: 549690339
But we are already so close to Mystara City now, and we still havent sensed anything. This situation does not match the energy changes after using a teleportation spell.
So, can we rule out the possibility of teleportation?
Leo Ray slightly nodded, while rapidly galloping, he lowered his body and tightly gripped the white fur on the wide wolfs back.
Continuing to ponder, he said, Could it be some kind of illusion technique that hid the City Lords Mansion and the entire ind together?
My Lord, that possibility is indeed greater.
The response mixed with the sound of the wind from Gideon ck came over: However, such disguises would only be effective visually.
Once you check the location, you canpletely figure it out.
My lord, I always feel that this matter is too strange. The rough voice of Taylor followed, So, please, my lord, be cautious and dont leave my side.
Understood.
Hearing this, Leo Rays eyes narrowed as he murmured to himself, Then lets take a good look at what happened in Mystara City.
At the moment when everyone was talking, Mystara City, which was originally far away, was already close at hand.
During the journey forward, looking at the increasingly tall city walls and city gates, Leo Ray noticed.
The wooden bridge leading to the central city gate of theke was now lifted at the front, and the city gates werepletely closed.
On the city walls, arge number of solemn soldiers in armor held sharp long spears in their hands, shining with dazzling cold light under the brilliant sunlight.
It seems that the sudden disappearance of the City Lords Mansion has put the entire Mystara City into a fully closed emergency state.
Gazing at the Floating Moon g, representing the Fashia n on the city walls, which danced with the wind, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Next, they easily crossed the towering city walls.
Wearing invisibility cloaks, everyone galloped along the fully-guarded city streets.
Before long, theke in the center of the city appeared before Leo Rays eyes.
At this time, standing on an open-air balcony, Leo Ray could clearly observe.
Arge and delicate wooden bridge was built on this not-small blueke.
At the other end of the bridge, however, was empty, and there were even some traces of tearing.
As for the location in the center of theke, the water was turbid, and many broken wooden pieces floated around, looking aplete mess.
My lord, the City Lords Mansion and the ind it was on are indeedpletely gone! Abigail, who stood beside Leo, couldnt help but swallow her saliva and said.
It must be said that for Abigail, who had seen the giant City Lords Mansion once before, the emptiness before her eyes now was truly shocking.
Gideon, go and check if there are any traces of an illusion there. Leo Ray gently patted Abigails slender shoulders, signaling her to calm down and spoke to the muscr priest beside him.
Yes, my lord! Gideon disappeared in front of Leo Ray with a sh.
After Gideon left, Leo Ray, who was looking down from above, continued to observe with narrowed eyes.
At the end of several blocks leading to theke, there were fully armed soldiers, and the roads werepletely barricaded with their armors Floating Moon emblem showing.
The solemn faces of these soldiers clearly belonged to the Mystara City Defense Army.
My lord, I have carefully confirmed that there are no traces of teleportation magic being used here.
As Leo Ray saw this, Scarlett, who had just returned from investigating the surroundings, stepped forward, bowed, and said.
After a moment, Gideon, who had gone to the center of theke, reappeared in front of Leo Ray and said, My Lord,
There is nothing there. The entire ind in theke has not been disguised, but haspletely disappeared.
So, it means that the disappearance of the City Lords Mansion was not due to teleportation nor an illusion?
Upon hearing this, Leo Rays eyebrows furrowed again, murmuring to himself, So,
How on earth did the ind in theke, along with the City Lords Mansion on it, disappear? Its baffling.Lord, the aura of the three unknown Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses is getting closer and closer to us. Following that, Taylor from one side spoke to Leo Ray with a fist salute.
Understood. Leo Ray, who was still wearing an Invisibility Cloak, nodded slightly, revealing a thoughtful expression.
He had already heard the report from Taylor when they entered the city earlier.
Currently, there were a total of eight auras of Tier 3 Powerhouses in this city.
Among them, five Tier 3 Powerhouses were scattered throughout the city, and the other three Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses were always gathered together.
At this stage, judging from the soldiers tense and confused expressions and their still well-organized actions, it can be determined that-
Although the disappearance of the City Lord Mansion has caused a great disturbance, there is still someonemanding these soldiers.
Therefore, if my guess is correct-
The three Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses who are gathered together are likely themanders of the citys Defense Army.
As for the other five scattered throughout the city, they are undoubtedly the citys mercenaries, travelers, or other forces.
With these thoughts, Leo Rays brows continued to furrow, and he pondered inwardly, On that note, analyzing the current situation-
There is no sign of foreign enemies invading Mystara City, everything seems to have happened suddenly and there is no trace of human factors.
It must be said that things are bing stranger and stranger.
At the moment when Leo Ray was pondering this,
on the not far street, three figuresing quickly had already entered his sight.
These three were two resolute middle-aged men and a sackcloth woman about thirty years old, all wearing the standard armor of Mystara City.
Upon seeing the three people arrive, the surrounding Ordinary Soldiers immediately bowed in salute.
Moreover, it could be clearly seen-
Although the expressions on their faces were calm, their brows revealed an uncontainable tension and helplessness.
Are they indeed the three Defense Armymanders? Observing this, Leo Ray nodded to his subordinates, indicating them to get closer to the others.
These three were all at the Tier 3, 5-star level, while Leo Ray himself had reached Tier 3 Seven-Star.
Furthermore, with the help of the Invisibility Cloak and the Concealment Ring, it was natural that they wouldnt be detected by the other side.
Captain Kara, what do you suggest we do next?
One of the middle-agedmanders said to the femalemander with an uneasy face, Although we have fully sealed off and imposed martialw on the city at the first opportunity,
due to the sudden disappearance of the City Lord Mansion-
the City Lord, Elders Council members, Orion Wolfe and Amelia, as well as the elite soldiers of the two Royal Guard Squads have all gone missing.
This cant go on like this.
Thats right, we have just dispatched an elite Hydro Magician diving team to search the river thoroughly.
It has been confirmed that the ind did not sink to the bottom of the river, but indeed disappearedpletely.
The other middle-agedmander also shook his head helplessly, his brow full of worry and iprehension. Whats more-
Our Mystara City has aplete illusion-warning and defense mechanism, which also eliminates the possibility of encountering illusions.
It must be said that I have never heard of such strange happenings.
In short, this matter is of great importance.
I have just sent people to contact the organizations within the city, such as Sanders Trading Conference, the Mercenary Guild, and the Merchant Union, to inform them to send representatives.
When the timees, well figure out a solution together.
Upon hearing this, the femalemander named Kara sighed lightly and responded, After all, we had previously grasped some abnormal situations, so perhaps there might be some connection between them yet to be determined.
Theres no need for that much trouble. At this moment, an indifferent voice entered the ears of the three, If theres anything, just tell me directly.

Chapter 459: Chapter 354: The Confusing Unexpected Guest_1
Trantor: 549690339
Upon hearing this, in addition to their astonishment, the threemanders immediately looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a inly dressed young man standing at a nearby street corner.
Due to facing the sun, the brilliant sunlight left a faint golden halo on him, which was dazzling to the eye.
Surrounding him were five powerful figures, each emitting a formidable aura.
At this moment, although these threemanders, who were Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses in Mystara City, could not see the specific strength of the group before them.
But one thing they could confirm was that the strength of these powerful warriors, including the inly dressed young man, surpassed their own!
Six Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses or above?!
Realizing this, the femalemander, Kara, looked solemn, furrowing her brows and immediately pressing her hand on the hilt of the sword at her waist, speaking in a deep voice, May I ask who your Excellency is?
At the same time, the crisp sound of armor collision rang out.
Following Karas gesture, several fully armed Defense Army soldiers quickly surrounded them, their faces full of vignce.
Captain Kara, dont be anxious, look at the object in that young mans hand! At this moment, a middle-agedmander next to her hurriedly reminded.
Hearing her colleagues hint, Kara, with her hand on the sword hilt, stared intently.
She saw that the inly dressed young man held a delicate, small token depicting the Water-floating Moon symbol.
The Water-floating Moon emblem on it was exactly the same as the one engraved on the breasttes of every Mystara City Defense Army soldier.
This is the Frost Family token possessed by the City Lord and the City Lords daughter, Fasha, as the heir to the family?!
It is said that this token is only given to close friends and benefactors who have greatly helped the Frost Family, representing the highest respect of the Frost Family.
How did it end up in youryour hands?
Seeing this, astonishment crossed Karas valiant face, and her hand gripping the sword hilt rxed involuntarily.
Undoubtedly, the person standing directly opposite her was none other than Leo Ray and his party.
And the Frost Family token in Leo Rays hand was, of course, personally gifted to him by Fasha as the family heir.
Soits you!
Upon recognizing Leo Rays face, after a brief pause.
The face of one of the middle-agedmanders revealed an ecstatic expression, eximing, This young gentleman is the one who helped Miss Fasha at the Golin City Alchemist Conference and cleared all her massive debts!
As soon as these words came out, both Kara and another middle-agedmanders faces were filled with awe.
And the soldiers around them all wore solemn expressions, casting reverent nces at Leo Ray.
At that time, when Leo Ray sent 2 million Gold Dragons to Mystara City through the Sanders Trading Conference in Viennas City, it immediately caused an uproar in the city.
One must know, 2 million Gold Dragons were equivalent to thebined profits of the entire city for more than a decade, an enormous amount!
At that time, although Leo Ray carried out the operation in Fashas own name.
However, the clear-sighted people of Mystara City knew.
Behind this notoriously reckless family heir, there must be a huge force with immense strength!
So, this calm andposed young man before me is the head of that huge force
Upon realizing this, Karas valiant face showed an irrepressible respect.
She quickly waved her hand to disperse the ordinary soldiers nearby, and then approached Leo Ray with the other two middle-agedmanders.
On the other side, seeing that the middle-agedmander had directly recognized him, Leo Ray was slightly surprised but soon understood.
So thats it.
I remember that at the Golin City Alchemist Convention, in addition to Fashas personal maid Amelia, there was another Tier 3 Powerhouse as a guard.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and pondered in his heart, Although I almost never had any interaction with that person and the impression is not very deep,
Upon careful recall, that other Tier 3 Powerhouse guard was undoubtedly this middle-agedmander.
Sir, allow me to introduce myself again, I am Gregory Mason, Commander of the First Defense Army Corps of Mystara City, at your service!
Right in front, the middle-agedmander stepped forward and bowed to Leo Ray, saying, Thank you, sir, for your help to our Mystara City!
Mystara City Second Defense Army Corps, Commander Kara, at your service!
Mystara City Third Defense Army Corps, Commander Clive Jackson, at your service!
Following that, Kara and another middle-agedmander also bowed one after another.
These three were all handpicked and promoted by Fashas father, the City Lord, and remained loyal to Fasha as the heir.
Therefore, they held nothing but respect for Leo Ray, who had helped Fasha clear all her debts.
After all, without Leo Rays appearance, the City Lord Mansion, which had been in a financial deficit for years.
Once impeached by the Elders Council, considering the ruthlessness of the Grand Elder, their fate would most likely be bleak.

Trantor: 549690339
Theres no need for excessive formality. Seeing that the situation was progressing even more smoothly than he had imagined, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly.
He then spoke seriously, I have already witnessed the sudden disappearance of the City Lord Mansion, along with the small ind it was located on.
The top priority now is to find the cause of the disappearance as soon as possible.
Next, please tell me everything you know about the situation, as well as any unusual events that have urred during this time.
Understood, my Lord. Then, lets start with the anomalies that have urred recently.
On the other side, Gregory Mason, the Mystara City Defense Army Battalion Commander who had previously seen Leo Ray in Golin City as Orion Wolfes escort, bowed slightly and began to describe the situation to Leo Ray.
Through Gregorys detailed introduction, Leo Ray learned that many strange phenomena had indeed urred in Mystara City in recent days, unlike anything they had encountered before.
First, the energy particles in the air would asionally experience unusual fluctuations, returning to normalcy most of the time, and repeating this many times without finding any cause.
Second, the water levels of both the Protective City River and the Lake in the Ind in the city center had mysteriously dropped to varying degrees, as if they had been drained.
Third, at night, people would asionally hear a sound simr to shattering windows but couldnt find the source of the sound.
Fourth, many households pet orioles had vanished inexplicably in the city recently.
Furthermore, to be honest with you, my Lord, we only summarized these events just now.
At this point, Gregory shook his head helplessly and continued, Among these four points, only the first one was known by our City Lord. The other three were reported by the citys residents to our Defense Army. Although we conducted a series of investigations, they did not attract much attention.
Thats right. It wasnt until the City Lord Mansion disappeared that we realized, in hindsight, that there might be some potential connection between these events.
On the other side, Kara let out a sigh and followed, If only we had linked these incidents together earlier and reported them to the City Lord, he might have noticed something.
That being said, my Lord, even though we havebined all the unusual events that have urred recently, we are still at a loss as to their connection. Subsequently, Gregory exchanged a helpless look with the other two battalionmanders before continuing.
I see. As he listened, Leo Ray stroked his chin, mumbling to himself, asional abnormal energy fluctuations, declining water levels of the Protective City River and the Lake in the Ind, shattering window sounds, and the disappearance of the orioles
After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray tilted his head and asked Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett, What are your thoughts on this?
In response to your question, my Lord, it is difficult to make an urate judgment on the current situation.
It is also impossible to analyze whether there is a hidden connection between these four events.
Perhaps some of them are rted to the disappearance of the City Lord Mansion, while others are caused by entirely different matters.
Gideon ck pushed his sses up the bridge of his nose and replied, The most intuitive of these is the abnormal energy fluctuations that have appeared in the air.
However, as everything around us is currently normal, this point cannot be directly understood.
That is indeed true.
After nodding slightly, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and asked the three Mystara City Defense Army battalionmanders in front of him, Regarding the intermittent abnormal fluctuations, when do they usually ur? Is there a pattern to them?
In response to your question, my Lord, they usually appear at noon and midnight, and onlyst for a very short time. Hearing this, Gregory immediately answered, At first, including the City Lord, everyone thought that some mage or alchemist within the city was studying some rare spell, so we sent a few elite mage squads to conduct further monitoring in the city.
However, since the abnormal energy fluctuations onlysted for a very short time, we could never confirm their specific source.It wasnt until we discovered that the time of the abnormal energy fluctuations seemed to be quite consistent that we began to take it seriously.
However, just today, when the City Lord was preparing to thoroughly investigate this matter, the City Lord Mansion, along with the small ind it was on, vanished.
At this point, Gregory Mason swallowed nervously, looked up at the blue sky above, and added, Lord, its almost noon now.
If everything goes as usual, that strange energy fluctuation should appear again.
Just as Gregory was saying this.
The next second, a sudden change urred.
Apanied by an inexplicable energy wave, it swept by.
Without any warning, the calmke surface ahead suddenly became turbulent.
In an instant, waves rolled in one after another, continuously washing over the neatly arranged stones on the shore, stirring up higher and higher sshes.
Following that, amidst the howling gales, some strangely-shaped silhouettes abruptly emerged on the turbulent surface of theke. At a nce, there were more than twenty of them.
Upon closer observation, these silhouettes were actually ck stone giants, covered from head to toe in a pure ck color.
The giants stood about 3 meters tall, and under the brilliant sunlight, they emitted a strange, dark glow from their bodies.
Moreover, bizarre purple patterns continuously shed on these tall, ck stone giants.
Their soulless eyes emitted blood-red radiance, making them look extremely horrifying.
Most crucially, the aura around these stone beings was powerful, clearly reaching the level of Tier 3 Powerhouses.
More than twenty stone giants with Tier 3 strength C where did theye from?!
Seeing this scene, the faces of the three Mystara City Defense Army Battalion Commanders were filled with disbelief.
Lord, please be careful. Well handle this!
Immediately after, the threemanders with grave expressions on their faces slightly bowed to Leo Ray and began to direct the surrounding Defense Army soldiers to form a formation.
At the same time, several Defense Army mages also fired red magic res into the air, apparently requesting reinforcements.
For a moment, the situation became tense and chaotic.
Lord, this seems to be an advanced magic puppet.
On the other hand, Scarletts face was filled with solemnity as she said, However, I have never heard of these ck stone giants before.
Moreover, I can confirm that the energy fluctuations emanating from them are very strange, and there is no record of them in the Grand Attic Library of the Magic Tower.
Lord, I did not sense the energy fluctuations that are usually emitted when summoning magic puppets.
It seems that these ck stone giants were not just summoned. Gideon cks voice then reached Leo Rays ears.
Lord, besides these magic puppets, I have not detected any other powerful auras.
It seems that their controller is not here. Finally, Taylor bowed slightly and reported.
So thats how it is. Theres been no news from the missing City Lord Mansion, yet now a group of Tier 3 advanced magical puppets appeared out of thin air? It seems that things are getting more and moreplicated.
Looking at the ck stone giants that had rushed towards the shore and began indiscriminately attacking the soldiers of the Defense Army, Leo Rays expression was solemn as he lightly said, Well then.
The most pressing matter right now is to help the soldiers of Mystara City clean up these unexpected guests.
Understood, Lord!
Upon hearing this, aside from Taylor, who remained by Leo Rays side at all times.
The rest of their strong allies immediately transformed into shooting stars, charging directly at the group of ck stone giants.

At the center of the deserted Mystara City sits ake, bathed in the sunlight of noon.
Two suns hang high in the sky, shedding glorious sunlight that causes the tumultuouske to ripple with shimmering light.
At the same time, it reflects the scenes of intense battles taking ce on the shore.
At this moment, they are facing an onught of more than neen ck stone giants from the third tier.
Under the valiantmand of the three defense army battalionmanders, Gregory Mason, Kara, and others.
The neatly arranged five teams of the Mystara City Defense Army have already started battling the sudden arrival of fierce enemies.
In an instant, swords sh creating chaos all around.
At this moment, all the soldiers on the scene understand clearly.
If they allow these rampaging stone giants to charge into the city, the consequences would be unthinkable.
At a nce, amidst the deafening battle cries.
The well-trained soldiers are doing their utmost to maintain the battle formation, leveraging their numerical advantage in an attempt to block the advance of the ck Stone Giants.
But the enemys strength is, after all, at the third tier. In terms of both strength and speed, these are far superior to the ordinary tier one and a few tier two soldiers.
As a result, with each mighty punch from the ck Stone Giants, many heavily armored soldiers, along with their metal shields, are sent flying.
And the sharp des of the soldiers can only leave shallow scratch marks on the bodies of the ck Stone Giants, at most slowing their actions by a fraction.
In a moment, the defense line formed by more than five hundred soldiers has been torn apart by the charging ck Stone Giants, leaving severalrge gaps.
Burst sh!
Right at the forefront of the chaotic soldier line, Kara, the battalionmander of the Defense Army, has a look of intensity, and her long sword bursts with cold light.
Amidst scattered stones, after pushing back a ck stone giant several steps.
Immediately, she shouted out loud, All heavy infantry in front, light infantry, and archers at the back, form up again!
However, just as she was rallying her troops.
Another lifeless ck Stone Giant bulldozed through several heavy infantry in its way.
Then, with an uncannily glowing massive fist, it hammered right at her!
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, by the time Kara reacted, it was already toote to dodge
Double Thunderfall Skill!
Just at this crucial moment.
Apanied by a deafening explosion, a purple lightning bolt suddenly fell from the sky, shattering the thick stone arm of the ck Giant that was swinging at her.
Z-sh!
The next second, a dazzling silver trail shes past.
Abigail, who just arrived, swinging the colorful de in her hand, reducing the armless ck stone giant back to a pile of rubble.
Thank you so much! Seeing this, Kara, whose scalp was somewhat numb, promptly nodded at Abigail.
Youre too polite. If you want to thank someone, thank my master. If it werent for his magic, I wouldnt have been able to get here in time.
Giving Kara a faint smile, Abigail, in her maids outfit, once again made a beautiful sword flourish, cleanly bringing down another ck Stone Giant.
Currently, Abigail has reached the tier 3 pinnacle powerhouse level, and coupled with the tier 4 weapon given by Leo Ray, to deal with these newly promoted ck stone giants at the third tier is naturally a breeze.
Hearing this, Kara, who was once again surrounded by her soldiers, instinctively looked back.
She saw Leo Ray with an ancient magic wand in his hand, a purple magic array shing in front of him, and his body exuding an impressive magic fluctuation.
Gratefully ncing at Leo Ray, Kara quickly focused her attention back on the battle in front of her.
Only at this moment did she notice.
The long sword in Abigails hand, wrapped in exotic colors, is clearly an exceptionally powerful divine weapon, while her own sword is just a tier 2 fine weapon.
As expected of the subordinates of that great man, what luxurious equipment.
While Kara was still amazed.
Fire Dragon Descent!
On the other side, apanied by a light shout.
A fire dragon with bared fangs and sharp ws rose into the sky, roaring straight at three ck stone giants.
In an instant, fire lit up the sky, sparks flew around, and the surrounding temperature soared.
Wherever the fire dragon went, heat waves rolled, and the three ck stone giants were instantly reduced to formless energy particles.
This scene made the surrounding soldiers cheer and exim in shock.
To them, the fearsome enemies who seemed impervious to sword and spear, unexpectedly, three of them were easily annihted!
In mid-air, red magic wings pped, controlling the fire dragon was Scarlet, holding the Tier 5 Magic Staff Element Dance, her little face full of seriousness.
Having already advanced to Tier 4 and with Leo Rays Tier 5 Magic Wand, dealing with these Tier 3 advanced magic puppets was naturally easy for her.
Of course, in order not to draw too much attention and to keep some tricks up their sleeves.
The dazzling colors emitted by the weapons in the hands of their powerful counterparts had been deliberately suppressed.
To the naked eye, they seem significantly weakened, making it impossible for others nearby to determine their specific tiers.

Meanwhile, in the other battlefield, two ck stone giants had already been reduced to chunks of rubble in the arms of a burly powerhouse wearing a strange priest robe.
Following that, the strong arm opened up and quicklypressed, shattering two more with a crack.
As the ck rubble continued to fall, Gideon cks elegant figure gradually became visible, pushing his sses up his nose.
Not far from Gideon, when Gregory Mason, another battalionmander, Clive Jackson, and other soldiers saw this scene, they could hardly believe their eyes.
Just relying on physical strength, he crushed two Tier 3 level, highly defensive advanced magic puppets
What was even more unbelievable was that this unfathomable powerhouse was actually wearing a priest robe?
Realizing this, the Mystara City defense army soldiers all swallowed nervously, their gazes unanimously shifting towards Leo Ray, their faces full of admiration.
It had to be said that this big shots subordinates were really filled with hidden talents.
Gosh, I never thought this guy could use his Hug-the-Sister move on rocks.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who also saw this scene and felt the gazes of the soldiers, couldnt help but curl his lips.
Then, Leo Ray narrowed his eyes and focused his attention on Bianca White.
He saw that she was incredibly agile, her Tier 4 short de shimmering brilliantly under the sunlight, effortlessly weaving between the two ck Stone Giants.
As the cold light flickered, the Tier 3 Eight-Star powerhouse, who was only steps away from bing a Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse, continuously left deep, crisscrossing shes on the bodies of the stone giants.
Until both the ck Stone Giants, who were almost twice asrge as her, fell to the ground with a loud crash, unable to get back up.
Like this, with the strong intervention of their own powerhouses,
In no time, more than twenty of the previously arrogant ck Stone Giants had beenpletely wiped out.
So strong
After the dust gradually settled,
Only after a while, the three battalionmanders of Mystara City C Gregory, Kara, and Clive C and the soldiers finally reacted and couldnt help but show shock on their faces.
This young Lord was not only incredibly wealthy but also possessed power that they could only look up to!
That being said, since their side had acted so promptly, these defense army soldiers only suffered different degrees of injuries C with no significant issues.
Thank you so much for your help! Upon ensuring the injured were taken care of, the three defense army battalionmanders immediately came forward.
It was nothing. Leo Ray nodded slightly, looked at a group of priests from the defense army who hurried over, and said to the muscr priest beside him, Gideon, give them a hand.
Yes, my Lord. Gideon bowed slightly and immediately joined the healing team under the guidance of the overjoyed Gregory and the others.
Next, under the incredulous gaze of the priests and injured soldiers,
Life force surged from Gideons hands, emanating warm and gentle light, and rapidly healing the injured soldiers.
In no time, under the soldiers reverential gaze, Gideon returned to Leo Rays side and bowed, saying, Lord, the task has beenpleted.
Very good. Leo Ray slightly nodded and called over Gregory, Kara, and the other defense army battalionmanders, as well as their own powerhouses.
Then with a frown, he said, Now, what exactly happened with the sudden appearance of these stone giants?
My Lord, the energy fluctuations that emerged just before the appearance of these stone giants were exactly the same as the previous abnormal fluctuations! Kara bowed and replied with an expression full of respect.
Yes, but before, there were only energy fluctuations.
We didnt expect so many terrifying creatures to appear this time. Gregory couldnt help but swallow and added.
Pausing for a moment, he continued gratefully, Thankfully, my Lord was present. Otherwise, before the reinforcements could arrive, our defensive line would have been broken through by those terrifying creatures.If they had rushed into the city, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Yes, it was all thanks to the Lord.
On the other side, Clive Jacksons resolute face also showed a hint of fear as he said, At that time, not only would our Defense Army have suffered heavy casualties.
Im afraid there would have been a bloodbath within the city.
Its a minor issue, not worth mentioning.
Leo Ray nodded slightly, his brow still furrowed, and continued, It seems that if nothing unexpected happens, the sudden appearance of those Advanced Magic Puppets.
It must be inevitably rted to the disappearance of the City Lord Mansion.
Moreover, it can be confirmed that these Advanced Magic Puppets were not just summoned and there were no controllers around. They were just indiscriminately attacking everyone.
A sudden surge of abnormal energy fluctuations, a mysterious drop in the water level of the Protective City River and Ind Lake, broken windows at night, the disappearance of arge number of Orioles, and now a sudden appearance of Advanced Magic Puppets
Bianca Whites fluffy ears, hidden under the Illusion Cloak, twitched slightly, and she looked puzzled as she said, What does all this have to do with the disappearance of the City Lord Mansion? It really leaves one at a loss.
However, the sudden appearance of the Advanced Magic Puppets seemed to have been teleported here through invisible spatial teleportation portals
Spatial teleportation portals? So thats it!
Seeing the thoughtful Scarletts big eyes light up, she immediately showed an enlightened expression and said to Leo Ray, Lord, your subordinate seems to know whats going on now!
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, indicating her to continue.
My Lord, because there is also an unknown Barrier Area here! Scarlett blinked her big eyes, expressing her conviction.
Oh? At this remark, Leo Rays face showed a hint of pondering.
He was naturally no stranger to these self-contained Barrier Areas.
Because the barrier area of Belinda Wright, Gunner Santons, and other Half-Elves viges was within such a barrier area.
Regarding the mysterious Barrier Area, I once heard Jasper Richardson, a Space Magic Instructor, talk about it.
Although the construction methods of various races are diverse, there are countless types.
However, the most crucial thing that remains constant is that they all require the help of powerful Space Magic users.
Therefore, the energy fluctuations emitted by these Barrier Areas all have amonality.
That is, they must carry a considerable part of the space energy particles, making it easy to distinguish.
However, just now, there seemed to be no space energy particles in the fleeting strange energy fluctuations.
As Leo Ray thought to this point,
Gideon ck, who had been adjusting his sses, seemed to have realized this issue as well, and said, Regarding the sudden energy fluctuation, which ispletely different from the Barrier Area,
how to exin that?
Upon hearing that, Taylor also nodded in agreement.
Although he was a physical powerhouse, he had seen many different types of Barrier Areas, including those of the Half-Elves.
These Barrier Areas are very well hidden, making it difficult to detect.
But asionally the energy fluctuations emitted carry a distinct space energy vor, quite different from what happened previously.
Otherwise, with his Tier 5 Powerhouse perception, he would have noticed it immediately.
At the same time, Gregory Mason, Kara, and the other three battalionmanders also showed puzzled expressions.
Their City Lord, Orion Wolfes father, may only be a Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse, but he is quite experienced.
If it was really a Barrier Area, he wouldnt have been so clueless.
The answer is actually quite simple. On the other side, Scarlett smiled and began to exin, her big eyes sparkling.
Chapter 463 - 356: Entering the Unknown Territory_1
Chapter 463: Chapter 356: Entering the Unknown Territory_1
Trantor: 549690339
Next, without hesitating, Scarlett exined, Because the Barrier Area here is not in a normal state, but in a special self-repairing state!
In a self-repairing state, not only does the Barrier Area not emit any conventional energy fluctuations.
Moreover, it can automatically absorb some external energy particles.
As a result, these external energy particles merge with the energy particles originally existing within the Barrier Area, creating a magical phenomenon called the Magical Convection Phenomenon.
However, this Magical Convection Phenomenon is generally difficult to detect, which is why the vast majority of powerful beings are unfamiliar with it.
So, the unusual energy fluctuations we just sensed were caused by this Magical Convection Phenomenon? Upon hearing this, Leo Rays furrowed brows slowly rxed as he pondered aloud.
Yes, Your Excellency, thats exactly it.
Scarlett nodded slightly, her signature starry eyes blinking as she continued her exnation: And the reason the energy fluctuations we felt just now were so intense.
The only answer is that this Barrier Area is undergoing a massive self-repair!
A massive self-repair, huh? Thats indeed a very rare situation.
Hearing this, a sh of white light shot through Gideon cks sses as he pondered and nodded, Since each Barrier Area represents the crystallization of wisdom from various races,
as a result, Barrier Areas inherently possess nearly perfect self-repair functions, able to exist for a long time even without maintenance.
Moreover, even if the hidden Magical Protective Barrier at the entrance of a Barrier Area is broken, it cant be considered arge-scale self-repair.
Unless the entire Barrier Area itself has experienced significant issues.
Thats right, from the current situation, theres only one answer.
That is this unknown Barrier Area has already be incredibly ancient and long-forgotten! On the other side, Scarlett nodded vigorously and affirmatively, From this, we can also draw a conclusion.
Everything is almost impossible to be man-made, otherwise, the previous anomalies would not have urred.
After all, the Barrier Areas were created to exist covertly.
Barring any idents, that Barrier Area should be an abandoned ancientnd that is still functioning in some way.
That makes sense. This way, the anomalies we mentioned earlier and the sudden appearance of an Advanced Magic Puppet can be fully exined.
After pondering for a moment, Gideon ck adjusted his Gold-rimmed sses and began, Firstly, the asional abnormal energy fluctuations, as exined just now, were caused by the Magical Convection Phenomenon.
Secondly, the sound of shattering ss often heard at night is due to the ancient Barrier Areas Magical Protective Barrier aging phenomenon, caused by its long-neglected state, only simr in sound.
However, it was quickly repaired automatically, so no traces could be detected.
Last but not least, the decline of water levels in the Protective City River and the Lake in the Ind at the city center is due to the unstable nature of the Magical Protective Barrier at the entrance of the Barrier Area.
This instability caused some water from theke to flow directly into the Barrier Area.
As Gideon ck was speaking, Kara nodded thoughtfully and said, The Protective City River on the outskirts of the city and the Lake in the Ind at the city center are indeed connected through underground rivers.
As soon as the water level drops in one ce, the other will inevitably experience a simultaneous decrease!
So thats how it is
Hearing this exnation, Gregory Masons resolute face brightened in understanding, only to disy confusion once again as he asked, How do we exin the disappearance of so many Orioles then?
Thats actually very simple. Scarlett nced at the now peaceful surface of theke, then continued, Im sure everyone is familiar with the Orioles unique self-preservation mechanism, right?
It involves emitting strange sound waves to hide themselves, so predators cant locate their exact positions through scent.
Within the realm of Magic, these sound waves have long been proven to create a special resonance effect with certain Barrier Areas, even capable of interfering with the function of Magical Protective Barriers.
However, this resonance is extremely weak under normal circumstances, virtually negligible.
But, since this Barrier Area at the center of Mystara City is in a long-neglected state.
It can be easily exined as long as there are no idents.
I see, so youre saying these Orioles inadvertently opened the entrance to the Barrier Area and flew in? Upon hearing this, Kara, looking enlightened, murmured, Right, the Mystara City residents who reported Orioles disappearances were indeed concentrated near the city center, which corresponds perfectly to this point!
In summary, it is indeed an ancient, unknown Barrier Area that caused all of these events to happen.
And the entrance to this ancient Barrier Area is right in the heart of this Lake in the Ind!
On the other side, with a sh in her starry eyes, Scarletts gaze once again fixed on the now calm and emptyke center, concluding her exnation.
Chapter 464 - 356: Entering the Unknown Territory_2
Chapter 464: Chapter 356: Entering the Unknown Territory_2
Trantor: 549690339
In that case, the origin of the sudden ck stone giants can be exined. They came from inside the barrier!
At this point, Gregory involuntarily swallowed and hurriedly asked, The most crucial thing is:
Is it possible that our Mystara City Lord Mansion and the ind it sits on didnt disappear, but were sucked into the barrier?!
Yes, thats what happened. Scarlett slightly nodded her head, her face full of seriousness, and replied, I once read about a simr situation in an ancient book.
When the barrier area itself is unstable, the numerous auto-repair magic arrays embedded within, will do this to maintain the bnce of time and space.
After all, the City Lord Mansion and the ind it sits on are located at the entrance of the barrier area.
Upon hearing Scarletts affirmative answer, the three Defense Army Battalion Commanders of Mystara City couldnt help but show shock on their faces.
It must be said that this situation was quite bizarre, to the point of being bewildering.
If it wasnt for the presence of such an important figure apanied by several knowledgeable powerhouses in front of them, they probably would still be at a loss for the real answer, even if they racked their brains.
Alright, lets quickly consider our next steps.
With a slight p of his hands, Leo Ray brought the thoughts of the three people back to the present and said, From the situation of those advanced magic puppets just now, its clear that:
The barrier area is likely to be full of dangers. Therefore, the most pressing issue now is to find a way to restore the City Lord Mansion to its original position as soon as possible.
Youre right, my lord!
Hearing this, Gregory immediately nodded and said, In the current City Lord Mansion, although there are the City Lord, three elders from the Elders Council, Miss Orion Wolfe and Amelia, who just returned, forming six Tier 3 Powerhouses.
As well as two squads of Tier 2 Elite Soldiers from the Royal Guard, the situation remains bleak considering the appearance of those ck stone giants.
Hearing this, everyones faces turned serious again.
Especially the three Battalion Commanders of Mystara City, who were even more solemn.
You should know that for over five hundred years since the establishment of Mystara City, this mysterious unknown barrier area had never been discovered.
No one knows what might exist within besides the ck stone giants.
Gideon, Scarlett, what do you think of the possibility I mentioned earlier? To pull the City Lord Mansion out of the barrier area and restore it to its original position?
First, Leo Ray raised his hand to signal everyone not to panic, and then asked the two of them.
But then again, Scarlett has made quite a contribution this time. It seems that she can be relied upon when ites to magic issues.
While Leo Ray was thinking about this, Scarlett pondered for a moment and her eyes lit up, saying, My lord, there is indeed such a possibility.
The unknown barrier area is due to its long-term disrepair. In order to maintain the bnce of time and space, it has taken these automatic correction measures.
If we can find a way to repair this barrier area,
the automatic correction mechanism of the barrier itself will naturally expel the City Lord Mansion and the ind it sits on, which were sucked in.
Exactly. In the barrier area, there will always be a specific Formation Eye Area, which is the center of the entire barrier area. Arge number of magic arrays exist there.
We just need to find the Formation Eye Area, and everything will be easy.
On the other side, Gideon yed with the shining metal skull ne that represented the identity of a Dark Healer on his chest, and thoughtfully said, Even if this is not a human barrier, but one left by another race, it doesnt matter.
After all, what we need to do is simply infuse magic power back into the worn-out and inactive magic arrays to restore their vitality.
The remaining repair work will be automaticallypleted by the barrier area.
I understand. It seems that no matter what, we must enter the unknown barrier area ourselves.Hearing this, a curious look appeared on Leo Rays face, I wonder what its like inside that barrier?
My Lord, please allow us to apany you! On the other side, Gregory Mason, Kara, and the other three Defense Army Battalion Commanders stepped forward and sped their fists.
At present, Mystara City still needs strong individuals to stay behind andmand the Defense Army, in case of unforeseen events.
At this moment, looking at the unfamiliar Tier 3 powerhouses who had arrived one after another from the nearby street corner, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, Therefore, the three of you can send a representative to apany us.
Saying this, Leo Ray thought for a moment and then quietly said to the three of them, For now, the situation is not clear.
The fewer people who know about the Barrier Area, the better.
So, including the other powerful figures in the city who may arriveter in the surrounding area, its better to let them go back for now.
Also, expand the blockade range here by twice as much and ensure this news ispletely sealed off.
My Lord speaks wisely, we will arrange it right away! The three Defense Army Battalion Commanders bowed slightly and immediately went into action.
A short momentter, Kara, acting as the representative, joined their own team.
It seems that this Commander Kara should be the Defense Army Battalion Commander under Holy Light General Joshua, mentioned by Orion Wolfe before, right?
Looking at this heroic female powerhouse, who was around thirty years old, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a thoughtful expression, thinking to himself, After the current situation of the Barrier Area is settled, I must ask in detail about Holy Light General Joshua.
With this thought, he looked at the calmke in front of him, and Leo Ray refocused himself, saying to his subordinates, Alright, lets not dy any longer, lets set off now.
Yes, my lord! On the other side, all of Leo Rays subordinates sped their fists and responded in unison.
Under the circumstances of having non-Territory personnel present, they naturally wouldnt reveal Leo Rays Otherworldly Lord identity.
Next, after the surrounding area had beenpletely cleared.
Leo Ray, standing at the center of the river and the end of therge wooden bridge.
He nodded to Gideon ck and Scarlett beside him, signaling that they could begin breaking the magical protective barrier at the entrance to the Barrier Area.
With Leo Rays permission, dark gold and fiery red hexagram magic arrays were immediately unfolded under the feet of Gideon ck and Scarlett, slowly rotating.
At the same time, twopletely different tones of incantation sounded.
ording to the previous task allocation, one of these two Tier 4 Magic powerhouses was locating the exact position of the entrance to the magical protective barrier, while the other was preparing to break the barrier.
Suddenly, as the incantation became more and more high-pitched, the magic arrays beneath their feet began to rotate even faster.
Meanwhile, Taylor, who was standing in front of Leo Ray, was also ready tounch an energy barrier for defense at any time in case of unexpected events.
After a moment, a crisp sound like ss shattering was heard.
The calmke in front of them once again began to churn violently.
In the blink of an eye, a several-meter-long spatial crack appeared in mid-air, tearing itself open and expanding continuously.
In the midst of lightning and fire, arge ck chaos vortex like a movie screen quickly formed in the midst of the surrounding strong gusts of wind, making the surrounding scenery seem twisted as well.
For a moment, the entire scene was tumultuous and stunning, leaving Kara and Bianca White, who were watching from the sidelines, dumbfounded.
Of course, for Leo Ray, who had already experienced the Half-Elf Barrier, this scene was not that shocking.
Alright, lets move on and take a good look at what kind of scenery lies within this Barrier Area.
After nodding to his subordinates, Leo Ray took a step forward, following Taylor, Scarlett, and Gideon ck into this ancient unknownnd.
Chapter 465 - 357: The Land Shrouded in Smoke_1
Chapter 465: Chapter 357: The Land Shrouded in Smoke_1
Trantor: 549690339
As Leo Rays vision cleared once more,
he found himself and his powerful allies standing at the center of a lush, green ind.
The size of the ind was small, with an area of only two or three hundred square meters.
Upon closer inspection, the ind was covered with knee-high weeds, with no other objects in sight.
The ind was surrounded by a dense fog, making it impossible to see beyond its borders.
Even the sunlight that prated through the fog lent the entire scene a sense of mystery, reminiscent of a hidden paradise.
Without hesitation, Leo Ray proceeded to try to reconnect with Orion Wolfe and Amelia using mind talk, only to find he still could not establish a connection.
With a slight frown, he tried to contact Belinda Wright, who was in his territory, but once again received a notification that the connection could not be established.
After several more attempts, even Taylor and the others around him could not be reached.
Its safe to say now, with a helpless smile, Leo Ray thought, that there must be a strong interference mechanism in this barrier area. It seems that unless I find Orion and Amelia in person, I wont be able tomunicate with them using mind talk.
On the other hand, Kara, thest one to enter and the battalionmander of the Mystara City Defense Army, was surprised, Where is this ce? The ind where the City Lord Mansion is located is at least ten timesrger than this area.
Dont worry, its the automatic correction mechanism of this barrier area that has relocated the City Lord Mansion and its ind to another part of the barrier. ording to ancient records, this location should be near the central area of the barrier!
Scarlett blinked her signature big eyes, nodded at Kara, and replied, And this is the original entrance area of this ancient barrier.
Thats correct. Gideon ck, taking in the unique scenery around him, agreed after a moment of perception, I must say, this barrier area is indeed quite special.
Alright, lets not waste any more time. Everyone, start investigating.
Hearing this, Leo Ray gestured for everyone to split up and investigate, then took on a thoughtful expression.
As Gideon had said, this ce was indeed very different from the previous Half-Elf Barrier.
Upon reflection, the previous Half-Elf Barrier resembled a miniature forest, almost indistinguishable from the outside world.
This fog shrouded ind, however, appeared much more mysterious and unpredictable.
Wait, could this be an illusion realm? Thinking back to his previous encounter in the Half-Elf Barrier, Leo Ray looked apprehensive and immediately voiced his concern.
Please rest assured, my lord.
On the other hand, Gideon bowed slightly, the golden sses on his nose bridge reflecting a glint of white light as he respectfully said, As a dark healer, I have an extremely keen sense of illusory techniques. Even if I cant see through them, I can detect some traces and will not unknowingly enter an illusion realm.
I see. Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, his tense expression slightly rxed, and couldnt help but look thoughtful.
Gideons signature move, Dark Manifestations, was essentially a form of psychic attack, simr in effect to illusion techniques.
As Leo Ray pondered, Gideon added after a moments consideration, By the way, my lord, the Illusion Crystal we discovered earlier has a certain sensing effect on other illusion realms as well.
From now on, if youre unsure whether youll enter an illusion realm, simply hold the Illusion Crystal in your hand.At that time, once you really step into the illusion, the Illusion Crystal will automatically emit a red light warning.
I see, I didnt expect the Illusion Crystal to have such a remarkable function.
With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Leo Ray took a step forward, and under the escort of Taylor and Bianca White, began to look around.
Just as he had walked only a few steps,
From not far away, Scarletts surprised voice came over: Sir,e and take a look!
Whats the matter? Confused, when he approached, Leo Ray noticed.
Scarletts location was right at the edge of the ind, and the thick fog in front of it had opened up a big hole, with a faint burnt smell.
It seemed that the girl had just shot a fireball at the dense fog.
However, when Leo Ray concentrated his mind and looked into the big hole, he immediately showed a surprised expression.
Outside the dense fog, the fluffy white clouds were almost within reach, and the two suns, one big and one small, were almost on the same horizontal line as the ind.
As for the area below the ind, instead of being the waters Leo Ray had imagined, it was a continuous range of tiny mountains.
In short, everything was like the scenery seen from an airne.
Goodness, are we actually in the sky? After being stunned for a moment, Leo Ray murmured in disbelief.
Sir, the scene below should just be a reflection of the Pine Sound Range.
However, what can be confirmed is that we are indeed in mid-air.
Or rather, this is a floating ind in the sky! Following that, Scarletts clear voice rang out again.
Upon hearing Scarletts words, everyone, including Kara, who had just arrived, couldnt help but show surprise.
A floating ind? This Barrier is indeed extraordinary. Gideon ck eximed softly and then bowed to Leo Ray: However, Sir,
If thats the case, then the race that built this Barrier is quite obvious.
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, indicating Gideon ck to continue.
Replying to Sir, this race is the Winged Race, which, like the Elf Tribe and Dwarf n, is equally renowned!
On the other side, Gideon ck maintained his elegant bow as he introduced the race to Leo Ray.
Thats right, the ability to keep the ind floating in the sky is indeed a unique and magical technique of the Winged Race.
Scarlett also nodded and said, I didnt expect this ce to be the ancient barrier of the Winged Race
You know, this almostpletely isted race is even more mysterious than the Elf Tribe and Dwarf n!
The Winged Race? Hearing this, Leo Ray stroked his chin and revealed a contemtive expression.
He had naturally heard of this race.
It was said that this magical race was born with a pair of pure white wings, much like angels.
Most notably, while the magic powerhouses of other races could condense magic wings only after reaching Tier 3, the Winged Race was the exact opposite.
Only after reaching Tier 3 could they master a mysterious secret technique that allowed them to retract their white wings into their bodies, making them look no different from ordinary humans.
Thats right, the first offensive spell I learned, Whale Fall Thunder Explosion, came from a Winged Race.
And now, Im in the ancient Barrier area built by the Winged Race? I have to say, its quite a connection with this race.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and pondered in his heart: Well, let me see whats so magical about this Winged Races Barrier.
Chapter 466 - 358: The Land Where Time Stands Still_1
Chapter 466: Chapter 358: The Land Where Time Stands Still_1
Trantor: 549690339
Sir, judging from the current situation, this barrier area of the Winged People seems to be made up of floating sky inds.
Gazing at the small ind in front of him that was not very spacious, Gideon ck pondered for a moment before bowing to Leo Ray, And the ce we are at now is just the tip of the iceberg of this barrier area.
Indeed, thats true. On the other side, Bianca White was half-lying on the grass, parting the weeds and carefully examining the ground.
She sniffed the ground closely and said, There are giant footprints and traces of long-standing here on the ground.
The smell is also very obvious, all matching the appearance of the ck stone giants we encountered earlier.
Thats right. Theres also a trace of energy residue from the energy supply magic array.
No wonder those advanced magic puppets summoned earlier couldst so long. Scarlett, on the side, was also squatting down and carefully sensing the surroundings before adding her observation.
I see. Hearing this, Leo Ray gazed at the shifting fog in front of him, his expression thoughtful.
As his understanding of this world deepened, he clearly realized that the spell type mostmonly used in this world was summoning non-living golem puppets.
Moreover, most golem puppets could onlyst for a few days at most before dissipating and turning back into energy particles in the air.
However, a small number of special golem puppets, when continuously supplied with energy, could exist for a long time.
For example, that Tree Guardian Giant with an Elf Core embedded in the ancient Elf Ruins found near Penelope Welbourns territory.
This core could enable the Tree Guardian Giant to form a set of autonomous energy cirction mechanisms, making it longsting and never weakening.
Another example would be the Earth Guardians and Sky Guardians created by the Miracle Building, Guardian Defense Mechanism, in Leo Rays territory.
ording to their own magic powerhouses, these advanced magic puppets, created by the Miracle Building, possess extraordinary stability and endurance.
As long as the energy is sufficient, they can continue to be active and can be stored in storage spaces.
Ordinary golem puppets could not be stored within storage spaces.
So the ck stone giants that appeared in theke just now were able tost so long because theres an energy supply magic array here, right? Thinking about this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.
I understand now
Kara, dressed in armor, showed an enlightened expression and muttered to herself, So, those ck stone giants that attacked us earlier were just the guardians of the entrance to this barrier area, usually in a dormant state.
And because the magical protective barrier at the entrance of the barrier area has naturally weakened and is very unstable after years of disrepair,
Thats why they took the opportunity toe to the outside world, right?
Thats right. These guardians must have been set to automatically attack any non-Winged targets, and when the barrier at the entrance disappears, it connects this ce to the outside world.
Therefore, after sensing the presence of arge number of soldiers outside, the ck stone giants naturallyunched their attack.
On the other side, Scarlett blinked her big eyes, nodded to Kara, and then added her input.
Alright, now that all our questions have been answered,
At this moment, Leo Ray slowly withdrew his gaze from the mountain range outside the sky ind and said, Lets continue moving forward.
Sir, I have another question.
Just as everyone had reorganized their exploration team, the crisp sound of armor shing was heard, and Kara, looking rather dashing, bowed slightly to Leo Ray, still puzzled, We are currently in the Winged Peoples barrier area.
The distances between the sky inds seem very far, so how exactly are we going to reach the next sky ind, apart from the magic powerhouses?
You dont have to worry about that. Leo Ray smiled slightly and looked at Gideon ck and Scarlett beside him. I remember hearing from a friend who has dealt with the Winged People before.
Although the Winged People are born with white wings and can fly in the sky, those who havent undergone theiring-of-age ceremony cannot do so.
Therefore, to facilitate travel between inds for their younger tribespeople, the Winged People are particrly proficient in teleportation magic, right?
Leo Rays friend, of course, was Jasper Richardson, the half-elf ancestor.
ording to Jasper, the Winged People preferred to study magic due to their naturally lightweight bones and slender body, rather than physical closebat.
As a result, this entire race excels in magic, almost on par with the well-known Elf Tribe, which is also renowned for its mastery of magic.
Moreover, Hero King Caesar, or Traveler King West, who single-handedly established the Coldme Kingdom, had also mentioned that
the teleportation magic array at the end of the underground square of Dragons Lair City was created by a Tier 6 expert from the Winged People.
Therefore, teleportation magic is indeed a forte for the Winged People.
As you said, sir.
Meanwhile, Gideon ck bowed slightly and pointed towards the sun-facing edge of the ind as he said, During my investigation earlier, I came across a dormant teleportation array.
Chapter 467 - 358: The Land Where Time Stands Still_2
Chapter 467: Chapter 358: The Land Where Time Stands Still_2
Trantor: 549690339
Presumably, thats the passage to other sky inds.
Sir, Uncle Priest is right; indeed, there is a teleportation array here on this sky ind, the only one, said Scarlett, blinking her long eyshes and nodding along.
Furthermore, this ce is within the Barrier Area, different from ordinary sky inds in the outside world.
Besides this floating ind, almost all the surrounding scenery is mirrored from the outside world, and other inds may not be in the same space.
So all we have to do is follow the teleportation array on the ind.
After all, the Winged Race and the Elf Tribe are both inherently proud and rigid races, and they have highly advanced magic technology, giving them the confidence that other races cannot find this ce.
Activate the teleportation array here again, Leo Ray nodded slightly upon hearing this.
Understood, sir! Gideon ck took the lead and began to walk towards the edge of the ind.
As he approached, his palm raised slightly, and a dark gold-colored small light ball was immediately formed in the air.
Then, with a flick of his finger, Gideon sent the small light ball, glowing faintly, floating towards an almost weed-free muddy surface.
The moment the light ball touched the ground, it was as if the ground lit up.
A gray hexagram magic array, constantly spinning, emerged, stirring up faint energy fluctuations in the process.
The magic patterns on it are quite simr to the one I saw in the underground square before, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow, looking at the sudden appearance of the gray magic array on the ground.
Sir, wait a moment. Just in case, the two of us will go and check it out first. Gideon bowed slightly to Leo Ray and then proceeded with Scarlett, who was holding a short magic wand, one after another.
Upon stepping into the magic array, the two of them disappeared as if they were wearing invisibility cloaks, making the entire scene quite fascinating.
So this is how a teleportation array works? When I was absorbed into it in the underground square, the scene must have been very interesting, especially Ariel Watsons expression, Leo Ray thought with some amusement.
Not long after, Gideon and Scarlett reappeared in front of everyone.
At this time, both of their faces were full of disbelief, as if they had seen something terrifying, and they couldnt speak for a while.
Seeing this, Leo Ray gestured for them to calm down and then asked, What happened?
Sir, on the other sky ind, there arethere are all members of the Winged Race! Scarlett, with a stunned look on her face, swallowed and then said.
There are still members of the Winged Race here? Leo Rays face was full of puzzled expressions upon hearing this.
The reason the Barrier Area was identally discovered by their party was that it had been left to decay for a long time. To maintain bnce with the outside world, the entire ind of the Lords Mansion of Mystara City was sucked into the barrier.
If there were still members of the Winged Race here, why would they reveal their position?
As for Gideon and Scarletts current dazed state, Scarlett was prone to being startled easily and showing such an expression was to be expected.
However, Gideon had always been calm and collected, rarely ever disying such a shocked expression.
From this, it was clear that something was very unusual.
Realizing this, Leo Rays expression became stern again.
Sir, there are indeed arge number of Winged Race members there.
On the other side, Gideon took a deep breath, trying to calm himself, then added, But, they cant be considered as still living members of the Winged Race!
Not still living members of the Winged Race? Upon hearing this, not only Leo Ray but also Taylor, Bianca White, Abigail, and Kara were all full of astonishment.
Sir, weve thoroughly checked and sensed the area, and theres no danger at the moment. Why dont you go and see for yourself?
Gideon shook his head helplessly and continued, Allow me to lead the way for you.
Alright, lets go. Leo Ray nodded slightly and took the first step.Like that, swiftly stepping into the teleportation magic array, a light grey glow flickered in front of Leo Rays eyes.
When his vision cleared, he saw himself standing at the entrance of a huge open-air square bathed in sunlight.
At first nce, the expansive square appeared to be vast.
Leo Ray estimated it to be at least the size of a dozen standard ser fields, where unlike the entrance ind previously, there was no mist surrounding the edges.
Clearly visible were tworge and small suns and the fluffy white clouds encircling them.
On the vast square, the ground was paved with white marble, filled with numerous fountains of varying sizes, countless flower beds, metal chairs, and greenwns.
At the far end of the square, several dome-shaped white buildings stood tall.
This scene, contrasting against the sky, lent everything a sense of an ethereal paradise suspended in the air.
However, a closer observation revealed the dried-out fountains, the barren flower beds, the rusty metal chairs, and the overgrown grass, casting an aged, grey tone over everything and marring the otherwise picturesque scene.
Still, the most crucial aspect of this cey elsewhere.
Across the square, numerous human-shaped statues stood, and, at a nce, there seemed to be thousands of them.
These statues had wings on their backs, varied poses, and different heights all of which looked vivid and lifelike.
What was even more astonishing
Almost every human statue, regardless of where it stood or what it was doing, looked in unison diagonally upwards, expressions of fear and shock on their faces, as if witnessing the arrival of the apocalypse.
This is
Sensing the anomalous energy fluctuations asionally emanating from the lifelike statues, Leo Ray remained stunned for a while before swallowing involuntarily.
Although the energy fluctuations radiating from these statues were very faint,
when they were all together, the fluctuations reached a perceivable level.
What was even more baffling was the trace of life energy, something that only living beings could emit, clearly present within these fluctuations.
These statues were they once living members of the Winged Race?! Bianca White, with an equally puzzled expression, couldnt help but blurt out.
Indeed, to be precise, these members of the Winged Race had been instantly subjected to some extremely profound petrification magic,
and it has likely persisted for thousands of years.
Gideon ck, standing aside and appearing rather wooden, nodded slowly, seemingly still recovering from the shock.
As someone in a healing profession, he was certainly familiar with petrification magic.
The petrification type of magic is one of the taboo skills.
Although its effects were extraordinary C capable of instantly turning enemies of the same or lower level into immovable statues C few powerhouses would actively use it.
This is because casting it consumes not only mana but also causes a certain degree of magic bacsh on the caster.
Moreover, this bacsh effect would increase with the number of targets and their respective power levels.
Generally, when this number reached double digits,
it would escte to an incredibly terrifying level, and if one were not careful, it might lead to disastrous results or even ones own demise.
What if the number of petrified targets were in the thousands?!
After considering this, Gideon ck took a deep breath and recounted everything he knew to Leo Ray and the rest of the group.
Upon hearing Gideon cks description, the expressions on their faces disyed their utter astonishment.
It seemed that thousands of years ago, this section of the Winged Races barrier area had encountered a terrifying adversary.
So, does that mean, thousands of years ago, at this Sky Ind Square, or rather, for these Winged Race people, their time had stopped at the moment of their petrification?
At this point, a look of contemtion surfaced on Leo Rays face amidst his astonishment.
Chapter 468 - 359: The Sky-Blue Castle on the Floating Island_1
Chapter 468: Chapter 359: The Sky-Blue Castle on the Floating Ind_1
Trantor:549690339
At this moment, looking at the vast floating za above, with thousands of petrified winged people, Leo Ray couldnt help but take a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
It must be said that this scene, as if time had frozen instantly, was truly awe-inspiring.
Looking carefully, among these winged statues with various terrified expressions and postures,
the vast majority were warriors d in leather armor or magic robes, wielding various weapons in their hands, and a small portion were ordinary citizens in long robes.
Due to their mottled petrified state, it was impossible to identify the color of the clothing on these statues, and of course, the weapons in their hands had also turned to stone.
In addition, some of the scattered stone statues on the ground were still in a stiff flying posture.
However, perhaps due to the casters powerful magic, these statues appeared to be extremely sturdy, with almost no damage.
Among them, not far from Leo Ray,
there was a winged stone statue in flight that had even shattered the edge of a fountain pool but remained intact.
Seeing this, Leo Ray pondered for a moment before turning to the muscr priest beside him and asking, Gideon ck,
how long have these winged people been petrified, and is there a more urate estimate of the time?
Master, ording to my analysis, this time point should be exactly the nk Age three thousand years ago.
In other words, this winged peoples barrier region has been in this state since the moment it was petrified three thousand years ago.
Of course, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it destruction, because these winged people are, in fact, already equivalent to the dead.
At this time, Gideon ck, dressed in a ck priest robe, had paced to the slender young winged warrior stone statue in front of him.
He reached out with both hands, palms tightly pressed against the sturdy stone body, carefully sensing it while responding.
Is it that unknown nk Age again?
Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly nodded, with an expected look on his face, and began to ponder again.
So far, they had stepped into the destroyed foreign cities of the nk Age for the second time.
However,pared to the previous Elf Relics where they didnt encounter any corpses, the sight in this Winged Peoples Barrier Region was obviously more awe-inspiring.
It seems that at that time, the ten thousand ns in this world did indeed encounter some extremely terrifying enemies.
Realizing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but take another deep breath and continued to ponder, This, along with King Wests mentioning of the gods no longer caring, and the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God,
does it mean that there was indeed a great war between the gods and the ten thousand ns at that time?
But, as I thought before, if thats really the case,
then its the gods who have clearly won the war that should warn the ten thousand ns and let them remember this lesson.
Therefore, the gap in history from the Era of nkness is obviously illogical, and there must be many secrets unknown to people.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray pursed his lips and brought his thoughts back to the petrified winged people in front of him.
After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly brightened his eyes and asked the muscr priest in a ck robe, Gideon ck,
these winged people still have a faint trace of life remaining in them.
Furthermore, as far as I know, petrification magic can be purified.
In that case, is there a possibility for these winged people to be purified and restored to normal?
Undoubtedly, if they could find a way to restore these winged people to normal,
the true face of the enemy they encountered that year would naturally be revealed.
Master, in theory, there is indeed such a possibility. On the other side, Gideon ck slightly bowed first,
then shook his head, One of our Dark Healers strong suits is to purify various forbidden magics from darkness with the power of darkness itself.
However, the master may not know,
the sess or failure of purifying petrification magic mainly depends on two factors.
First, the rank of the petrification magic added to the target.
Second, the duration of the targets petrification.
From the current situation,
for the first point, the petrification magic on these winged people is obviously very sophisticated, far beyond my ability to discern levels.
For the second point, these winged people have been petrified for three thousand years, and even if there is still a trace of life energy in them, it has already weakened to the extreme.
Therefore, at least at this stage, there is no way we can help these winged people purify.
I understand, at least theres still hope for the future. Slightly nodding, Leo Ray didnt dwell too much on this matter.
At this stage, the only thing they could do to achieve this was no doubt to continue umting strength.
With this thought, Leo Ray waved his hand, gesturing for everyone to take action, and then summed up, In summary, the conclusion we can draw at the moment is that three thousand years ago, during the nk Age,
the winged people in this barrier region obviously encountered a very powerful enemy.
And the enemy appeared so suddenly that even the Golem Puppet Guardians at the entrance of the barrier were not alerted.
Chapter 469 - 359: The Sky-Blue Castle on the Floating Island_2
Chapter 469: Chapter 359: The Sky-Blue Castle on the Floating Ind_2
Trantor:549690339
From this, it cannot be ruled out that in other areas here, there are still arge number of Golem Puppet Guardians of the Winged Race in normal condition.
So, the current priority is to find Orion Wolfe and the others, and then proceed with the n to repair this barrier.
As for the detailed exploration work here, it can be left to thest.
Understood! My Lord. Hearing this, everyone, including Kara, regained their spirits.
Then, under Leo Raysmand, they began to search for the teleportation magic array on this floating za.
At the same time, somewhere in the barrier area.
On a floating ind in mid-air, it is covered with towering ancient trees and various glowing strange flowers and grasses.
At the center of the sky ind, there is a vast greenke.
On the surface of thiske, there are also glowing spots, just like the starry sky at night, filled with various types of magical seaweed.
Under the sunlight, thekes surface is shimmering everywhere, reflecting the rainbow-like colorful brilliance.
And in the center of theke, there is a not-so-small ind floating.
Above the ind, a huge sky blue castle stands proudly.
This scene, along with the surrounding fantastically colored scenery, makes everything look quite like a fairytale world.
However, upon closer inspection.
The metal drawbridge at the entrance of the sky blue castle has been raised high by the ck iron chains, and the heavy ck metal sluice gate has dropped at the entrance.
On the towering walls of the castle, there are rows of elite soldiers holding sharp weapons neatly, and in the arrow towers on both sides, there are archers with longbows.
These soldiers all have an anxious and solemn expression, and the silver-white armor with the Mystara City emblem shines under the sunlight.
Moreover, it can be clearly seen.
The walls and the soldiers armor are covered with spots of undried blood, and the crions and some walls have many broken gaps.
In the air, there is also a lingering damp bloody smell, which obviously indicates that an intense battle had taken ce here not long ago.
Inside the heavily guarded castle, it is even more chaotic.
Many wooden furniture and metal decorations in the rooms are scattered on the ground, and it looks like they have just experienced a violent earthquake and tremor.
In the main hall of the castle, a middle-aged man with grizzled temples sits on the throne at the top.
He has a gentle face, a carefully trimmed O-shaped beard, revealing a refined gentlemans aura, and is wearing a dark blue robe.
However, the most eye-catching is his well-trimmed hair with thick hair wax, looking meticulous.
Standing next to him is a young woman in airy golden attire with an exquisite face and short, distinctive hair, who is Orion Wolfe who has lost contact with Leo Ray.
Behind Orion Wolfe, there is a slender female figure.
She has braided hair, wears a ck-and-white maids uniform, and has a capable temperament on her white cheeks. It is none other than Amelia, another powerful person on their side.
Standing at the lower end of the hall are three white-haired old men.
These three old men are all wearing light blue robes, looking strong and healthy, giving off a sense of strength in their old age.
Moreover, although all six people in the hall have an extraordinary aura.
Still, they have a solemn look on their faces as if facing a formidable enemy, making the air thick with a tense atmosphere.
Grand Elder, how is the current situation in the castle? The middle-aged man sitting at the top asked with a frown.
This middle-aged man is Orion Wolfes father, the current City Lord of Mystara City.
Reporting to the City Lord, the dozen or so tourists stranded in the castle have been settled in the first instance.
At present, they do not know exactly what happened, so there is no need to worry too much.
The leading elder in a blue robe at the lower end slightly bowed and replied: As for other members of the families living in the castle, except for those withbat abilities.
They have been forbidden to leave their rooms, as well as servants and other staff.Therefore, although everyone was extremely panicked and uneasy, there was norge-scale chaos within the castle.
Looking at the respectful expression on the Grand Elders face, Orion Wolfe, who stood beside him, couldnt help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
It should be noted that this chief Grand Elder of the familys Elders Council was once a staunch opponent of Orions father and strongly opposed her learning alchemy.
He was constantly looking for opportunities to try to pull her father down from the position of Mystara City Lord.
However, when Orion returned home this time, she was surprised to find that.
This former archenemy not only came to greet her in person but also showed a never-before-seen smile on his old face,pletely unlike his previous cold and vicious demeanor.
It was only after asking her father that Orion found out that some time ago, when the City Lord transported 2 million gold coins under her name, which was equivalent to more than a decades total profit of the entire city, to Mystara City.
The attitude of the Grand Elders faction changed drastically in an instant.
From being a determined opponent, they almost immediately became her fathers loyal supporters.
At first, Orions victorious father, who had straightened his backbone, was naturally suspicious of this, thinking that it was just another scheme from the Grand Elders faction.
However, it didnt take long for the Grand Elders faction to voluntarily return all the power they previously held tightly in their hands to Orions father.
In particr, themanding positions of the citys defense army and the citys finance officer, two extremely important positions.
Upon regaining total control of the entire Mystara City, Orions father then arranged a few spare positions for the Grand Elders faction.
At that time, after hearing about this, Orion was not only deeply shocked but also couldnt help but feel a great sense of admiration for the City Lord who remains unseen.
Through a series of expressions from the Grand Elders faction, it was clear that.
The reason why they changed so quickly was obviously not because of her City Lord father, but because of the City Lord who hadnt even shown his face!
On the other hand, while bowing respectfully, the old face of the Grand Elder also couldnt help but reveal a helpless expression.
If this inexplicable situation had happened in the past, they would have definitely scolded Orions father first.
However, the current situation is different from the past.
Behind Orion is a great figure who can easily produce 2 million gold coins!
A wise man knows the times and going against such a person with enormous power is simply courting death.
This was something they, who had lived hundreds of years collectively, understood better than anyone else.
Thats why they decided to hand over the power willingly.
Otherwise, if the other party attacked first, the consequences would undoubtedly be unpredictable.
Moreover, after returning this time, Orion and her personal maid Amelia both made sudden breakthroughs in their strength, reaching the unbelievable Tier 3 Peak Level.
Even if Orion had exceptional talent, it would be impossible for her to progress so quickly, let alone Amelia, whose talent was not evenparable to hers?
And it cannot be denied that this miracle of cultivation happened after Orion got hold of the 2 million gold coins.
To say that this has nothing to do with the great figure, they simply dont believe it.
It is clear that this great figure is far more terrifying than they had imagined.
In short, at the moment, while the Grand Elders heart is pounding with excitement.
In addition to being grateful that his decision to give up power was the most correct choice in his life, he certainly wont have any other thoughts.
Very well, order all the Imperial Guards and all the n members above Tier 2 in the castle to be on high alert at all times.
Immediately after, Orions father, the City Lord, gave another order with a solemn expression.
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged Mystara City Lord sighed heavily, then his eyes became misty as he recalled the events that had taken ce initially.
Chapter 470 - 360: The Battle for the Sky-Blue Castle_1
Chapter 470: Chapter 360: The Battle for the Sky-Blue Castle_1
Trantor: 549690339
Not long ago, the spirited middle-aged City Lord was still immersed in the joy of his precious daughter Orion Wolfes sudden return.
Of course, what interested him more was undoubtedly the big figure behind the 2 million Gold Dragons.
As a doting father, he understood it all too well.
His unique and pampered daughter would rank at the top among the young nobles of Coldme Kingdom in terms of being willful and reckless.
Even, if she tried harder, she could hope to be in the top three of the willfulness rankings.
But when it came to making and saving money, let alone 2 million Gold Dragons, even 2 Gold Dragons would be hard for her to muster the motivation for unless she was pushed to the limit.
It was clear that Orion Wolfe had encountered a noble benefactor, and this benefactors power was extraordinarily strong!
In short, if it werent for the timely help of this big figure, the huge financial hole in Mystara City would have beenpletely plugged.
At the family conference a few days ago, I might have lost my position as City Lord to the covetous Grand Elder and his faction.
After all, the Grand Elders faction held the position of Defense Army Commander, and the Mystara Citys finances had been in deficit for years, causing instability within the army.
At that point, the consequences would undoubtedly be unimaginable.
Such an internal family struggle would certainly stir bloody storms within Mystara City, and my own life and wealth might havee to an end as well.
Thinking of this, an unrestrained reverence filled the face of Orion Wolfes father.
However, before I could ask the just returned Orion in detail about that big figure,
our entire City Lord Mansion and its ind were mysteriously transported here along with a violent earthquake.
At this point, the middle-aged City Lords face turned solemn again.
After that, before they could figure out what had happened, they immediately faced a bloody battle.
In this battle, against a formidable group of over a dozen Tier 3 Advanced Magical Puppets, some of which were even capable of flying-
Although they managed to eliminate all of them, the losses to the elite Royal Guard Squad and some of the castles nsmen were quite heavy.
After the initial battle, I personally took Orion, Amelia, and three elders to scout the surroundings.
We discovered that we were now on a Floating Ind dominated by a forested area.
What surprised me even more was that the scenery outside the Floating Ind was all mirrored.
Undoubtedly, it means that we are currently in an unknown Barrier Area, and from the initial situation, it seems to be very dangerous.
Realizing this, the middle-aged City Lord sitting at the head of the hall solemnly reinvigorated himself.
He then addressed the crowd, Our top priority now is to find a way to escape this mysterious Barrier Area.
We can imagine that since our castle was able to be transported here along with the entire ind, there must be a way to leave this ce as well!
The City Lord is absolutely right. Hearing this, the Grand Elder sitting below slightly bowed and said, But at this stage, we are stillpletely clueless.
Our scouting earlier didnt find any clues to leave this ce, and more importantly, if we attract the attention of those advanced magical puppets again, things might get very messy.
You have a point. Orion, do you have any good suggestions? The helpless and serious-faced middle-aged City Lord turned to his darling daughter.
Father, Amelia and I both have Invisibility Cloaks and rings that can hide our breath, so let us handle the task of scouting this ce, Orion spoke after a brief moment of contemtion.
Just now, Ive also learned that in these past few days, Mystara City has been frequently experiencing abnormal energy fluctuations, which might be rted to our current situation.
That makes a lot of sense. The middle-aged City Lord nodded and continued, By the way, Orion.
You mentioned earlier that the big figure was on his way to our Mystara City. Is it possible that hes trying to find a way to save us?
Hearing this, the three elders eyes lit up. If that big figure could reallye,
then their current precarious situation might turn from dangerous to safe!
Father, that person will definitelye to save us!
At the words, Orions furrowed brows rxedpletely, as she spoke determinedly, So, no matter what, we must hold on until that person arrives!
After Orion finished speaking, Amelia, who was beside her, nodded heavily, her face filled with conviction.
Understood. Hearing this, the middle-aged City Lords serious expression softened slightly, he regained his spirit and said, Alright, in that case, lets proceed ording to what we just discussed.
Chapter 471 - 360: The Battle for the Sky-Blue Castle_2
Chapter 471: Chapter 360: The Battle for the Sky-Blue Castle_2
However, as soon as his voice fell.
A series of urgent horn sounds echoed outside the hall door.
No good, its the highest level enemy attack rm! At this moment, the Grand Elder, who was seated at the lower end of the table, had a stern expression on his old face, and couldnt help but blurt out.
Lets go out and take a look. On the other side, the middle-aged City Lord sprang up from his throne, and a Tier 3 Fine Metal Magic Staff, shimmering with multicolored light, appeared in his palm.
Orion Wolfe and Amelia, who were beside him, had already taken out their respective weapons, with serious expressions on their faces.
So, when the six strongest powerhouses in the castle arrived at the city wall.
The scene before them left them dumbfounded.
On the edge of the forest across theke, arge number of ck stone giants appeared, riding the wind and breaking the waves, rapidly advancing towards the castle.
As the splendid sky was filled with countless ck stone pterosaurs pping their wings.
For a time, the surroundings of the castle were almost entirely covered by the frantic onught of these opponents, blocking the sky and the sun.
Judging from the aura, they are all Tier 3 advanced magic puppets, and their number is probably no less than 50! Seeing this, the Grand Elder couldnt help but swallow, his face full of horror.
At present, there are still about one and a half elite middle teams in the castle, with about 150 Tier 2 powers and six Tier 3 powerhouses.
Such strength can barely cope with half of the attacking enemies, and the rest of them will undoubtedly cause devastating damage to the entire castle!
Whats most crucial is that although the ck stone giants on the ground look very heavy, each of them can climb walls and are extremely agile.
It was during the first attack when these ground creatures suddenly became aggressive.
One by one, they rushed to the city wall at an extremely fast speed, causing no small trouble for the unprepared elite middle team soldiers.
On the other side, the soldiers on the city wall were also full of anxiety and insecurity, swallowing nervously.
Dont panic, all archers aim at the enemies in the sky and prioritize eliminating them. The rest of the soldiers stay in front and defend against the attacking enemies!
At that moment, a calm andposed voice sounded.
A pair of pale golden magic wings emerged from the middle-aged City Lord, who was also a Moonlight Mage at the peak of Tier 3.
He then floated slowly into the air above the castle and spoke loudly, Our reinforcements are on their way.
All the warriors of Mystara City, persevere and victory is ours!
Yes, Sir! Persevere and victory is ours!
Upon hearing this, the soldiers tension eased slightly, and they began to reorganize their battle formations on the city wall under themand of their respectivemanders.
For a time, the crisp sound of armor shing echoed on the city wall, and an atmosphere of solemn killing spread quietly around the castle.
Subsequently, Orion Wolfe, along with three Moonlight Mage elders, including the Grand Elder, fluttered their magic wings and soared into the sky.
Along with the high-pitched and stirring chants.
The five Tier 3 Moonlight Mages, without any hesitation.
As their various colored magic wands waved, a series of pale golden hexagram magic arrays began to form rapidly around them.
Moonlight Destion Bullet!
de of Moon!
Moon Spear Thrust!
A momentter, apanied by soft shouts, Orion Wolfe and the other four hovering above the castle saw the pale golden light of their magic wands intensify.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Within the next second, magical bullets, des, and long spears, condensed from the pale golden light, shot out from the magic arrays surrounding the five, at lightning-fast speed.
They flew directly towards the group of ck stone pterosaurs that were not far away and spreading their wings in flight.
Facing the fives magic attack.
The first ck stone pterosaur, who bore the brunt of the attack, paused for a moment in midair.
It was then shattered by the whistling magic bullet, turning back into fine magical light particles, until it disappearedpletely.
Without a doubt, this was Orion Wolfes attack. She was at the peak of Tier 3 and, with her Tier 4 Magic Wand, naturally had the highest damage output among the five.
Next, the second ck stone giant dragon, after being pierced by numerous Moon Spears.
It wobbled in the air for a while before finally crashing heavily to the ground, turning to dust as well.This hit was made by Orion Wolfes City Lord father, who was at the peak of Tier 3 and wielding a Tier 3 Fine Metal Magic Staff.
Although slightly weaker in terms of attack power, his control over magic was exceptionally strong.
Each of the Moonlight Spears urately struck the weakest joints of the ck Stone Pterosaur, rendering it unable to continue flying smoothly.
Afterward, the third, fourth, and fifth ck Stone Pterosaurs were struck by a barrage of Moonlight des on their wings.
Although they were not destroyed, they all fell to the ground, struggling and unable to get up.
All three Elders possessed the strength of Tier 3 Senior Powerhouses.
Simr to their City Lord friend and like the younger Orion Wolfe, they were slightly weaker in terms of raw strength but possessed greater precision.
At the same time, a fierce arrow rain shot by seventy Tier 2 Archers arrived.
A multitude of arrows came one after another, turning the three ck Stone Pterosaurs into porcupines and sending them falling down in a clumsy manner.
On the other side, seeing eight of their opponents eliminated at once, the soldiers cheered in excitement.
However, only Orion Wolfe and the others clearly understood the situation.
This was merely their advantage in long-range attacks due to the distance between the two sides.
Once the enemy neared, this advantage would vanish, and the situation would undoubtedly turn dire.
Following the next wave of arrows from the city walls Arrow Tower,
The new round of chanting began once again.
However, this time, before the five of them finished their chant.
They saw the ck Stone Pterosaurs in front of them furiously attacking Orion Wolfe and the others, with their wings fluttering and emitting a strange ck light, their sharp stone ws swinging ferociously!
Retreat!
As Orion Wolfe yelled,
With no choice, the five magic powerhouses hovering in mid-air had to throw out their iplete offensive spells.
Their Magic Wings pped, and they began to retreat hastily.
Undoubtedly, as long-range magic powerhouses, once they were surrounded by these ck Stone Pterosaurs, the situation would be quite troublesome.
On the other side, the remaining dozen or so ck Stone Pterosaurs split into two groups.
One group continued to attack Orion Wolfe and the others, while the other group swooped towards the Tier 2 soldiers below.
Due to the astonishing speed of the ck Stone Pterosaurs, everything happened in the blink of an eye, leaving many soldiers unable to react.
Lightning sh!
Right as the first ck Stone Pterosaur was charging towards them head-on in a dive,
An X-shaped silver streak shed across.
The diving Pterosaur was shed into several sections, its stone body disintegrated into fine glowing particles before hitting the ground and scattering in the wind.
At the same time, a figure exuding an impressive aura gradually became clear.
It was Amelia, the maid with twin swords and braids flying in the air.
Her strength at the peak of Tier 3,bined with the addition of two Tier 4 Longswords, has elevated her explosive power to an extremely powerful level.
As Amelia lifted her swords,
The slower-reacting soldiers were only then able to counterattack the plunging ck Stone Pterosaurs under their respectivemanders orders.
At first, while defending with their neat and small square formations made of soldiers wielding shields and long spears,
No advantage was gained by the swooping and whistling ck Stone Pterosaurs.
However, after several fierce w attacks,the soldiers at the edges of the formations began to scatter.
Some soldiers collided heavily with the crions, while others were directly lifted by Pterosaurs from behind and thrown into the nearbyke, sshing huge waves.
Fighting on the city wall quickly became chaotic, with an increasing number of wounded soldiers falling and screams filling the sky.
As for the running ck Stone Giants at the foot of the wall, they were already close to the precarious castle, shaking the ground as they approached.
Chapter 472 - 361: Strong Reinforcements_1
Chapter 472: Chapter 361: Strong Reinforcements_1
Atop the towering city walls of the Sky Blue Castle.
Shouts of battle and the swooshing of wings filled the air, the fight was ferocious.
Or rather, the sudden assault by these ck stone winged dragons was one-sided.
At this moment, despite the efforts of the lower-rankingmanders to shout orders,
they tried to reorganize the scattered soldiers and fight the aerial invaders together.
However, in a strange environment, facing the Tier 3 enemies lethal ws, the high-speed dives, and the flexible bodies that could dodge in an instant,
the elite soldiers could only passively take the beating. They were quickly thrown into chaos, unable to organize any effective counterattack.
Amelia, a highly skilled maid, was also restrained by several diving stone-winged dragons, left with just enough strength to defend herself.
For a moment, the desperate roars of themanders, the panicked screams of the soldiers, and the sound of shattered stone debris from the enemys w impacts on the crions were incessant.
Like a mournful sonata, the red blood flowed freely through the cracks in the stone pavement.
In mid-air, the situation was equally grim.
About ten ck stone-winged dragons, with their strangely shining ck wings, were crazily attacking Orion Wolfe and the other four.
As skilled Tier 3 magic powerhouses, these five could almost cast ordinary Tier 1 magic instantly without chanting.
However, the damage they dealt to the enemy was limited, at most only causing small wounds on the enemys tough skin.
With no other choice, they engaged in continuous tug-of-war battles, trying to find their opponents weaknesses.
By the time the six of them as the primary Tier 3 powerhouses werepletely restrained,
the battle quickly turned to the disadvantage of Orion Wolfe and his team.
However, this was not the worst-case scenario.
At the same time on the ground, the ck stone giants that rode the wind and waves were already roaring as they approached the city!
Seeing this, Orion Wolfe, his City Lord father, the Three Elders, Amelia on the city wall, and the lower-rankingmanders,
couldnt help but break into a cold sweat, their spines chilling.
There was no doubt that once the ck stone giants reached the city walls,
they would instantly break through the defenses and cause devastating damage to the unarmed civilians inside the castle!
Damn it! Realizing this, Orion Wolfe in mid-air, his pale golden wings quivering,
was about to swoop down and reinforce the city walls, only to be stopped by two ck stone-winged dragons, unable to move at all.
He could only watch helplessly as the enemies on the ground got closer and closer to the city walls.
The middle-aged City Lord and the Three Elders gritted their teeth, having tried multiple times without sess.
For a moment, an atmosphere of despair quietly spread in mid-air.
At this critical moment, a resounding howl broke out.
A group of powerful figures suddenly emerged from the dense forest in the distance, flying toward them.
At the forefront were three individuals, two of them with magic wings pping rapidly, rushing to aid Orion Wolfe and hispanions.
On the ground, another person transformed into a dazzling light, hurtling towards the approaching ck stone giants.
In an instant, the towering figure on the ground stopped the advance of the ck stone giants single-handedly with his incredible speed.
Earth-splitting sh!
The next second, the burly figures giant sword shone brightly, bringing forth a tremendous force, and shed down at an incredible speed.
For a moment, the earth cracked, and stones sttered everywhere.
Deep chasms, mixed with sharp sword auras, rushed like surging waves toward the approaching group of ck stone giants!
Under this unstoppable attack, the seemingly indestructible stone giants crumbled instantly, turning into tiny energy particles floating in the air.
Without hesitation, the burly figure leaped into the air.
Like a heavy bomb, his giant sword erupted with a cold light, smashing into the remaining stone giants, stirring up a fierce dust storm.
Just like that, the ground assault was brought to a halt by the powerful figures efforts.
At the same time, in the sky, the two figures moved as well, their dark gold and red magic wings pping,
one in front of the other, like dazzling meteors with long tails.
They bothunched their attacks at the ck stone-winged dragons that were tangled with Orion Wolfe and the others.
At an inconceivably fast speed, the dark gold figure in the front reached the two ck stone-winged dragons, catching them and crushing them in his strong arms. In an instant, their stone bodies disintegrated and turned into fine energy particles.
Wings of Crimson Lotus!
Not far away, apanied by a soft shout,
three firebirds engulfed in mes appeared in mid-air, speeding toward the ck stone-winged dragons.
In the blink of an eye, fire shed with stone, scattering sparks. Three ck stone-winged dragonspletely engulfed by the firebirds struggled as they fell towards the ground.
Without hesitation, the two joined the fray.
Chapter 473 - 361: Strong Reinforcements_2
Chapter 473: Chapter 361: Strong Reinforcements_2
Once again aiming at thest few targets entangled with Orion Wolfe and the others, they quickly andpletely eliminated all of the pterosaurs obstructing the five of them.
Afterward, they turned their heads and began to charge towards the ck stone pterosaurs on the city wall, greatly reducing the pressure there in an instant.
Undoubtedly, the single person on the ground and the two in the mid-air were naturally their own strong yers Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett.
At the same time, on the ground.
Four more figures with extraordinary momentum soon arrived and joined the towering figure to eliminate thest of the ck stone people.
It was Leo Ray, Abigail, Bianca White, and one of the battalionmanders of the Mystara City Defense Army, Kara.
At this point, with the strong intervention of Leo Ray and others, the situation reversedpletely in an instant.
Since everything happened in a sh, by the time Orion Wolfe and the other six Tier 3 powerhouses, as well as the soldiers on the city wall, responded.
Just now, the advanced golem puppets that had an absolute advantage were almost wiped out, with only a few left making futile struggles.
Its that Lord, Lord came to save us!
A crisp and excited voice sounded, and Orion Wolfe in mid-air was the first to react.
She saw her excitedly looking at Amelia on the city wall, then turning her gaze towards where Leo Ray was.
So, the young man is the important figure behind this girl?!
Following Orion Wolfes sight, the middle-aged City Lord and the three elders who just came back to their senses couldnt help but show disbelief on their faces.
Without a doubt, this mysterious and unpredictable figure was much younger than they had imagined!
Moreover, with the power of just a few people, the situation waspletely reversed. How terrifying was the strength of these powerhouses that came with this important figure?
Most crucially, as Orion Wolfe said.
This young lord really brought people to save them!
Everyone, cooperate with our reinforcements and eliminate thest of the enemies!
Fortified by the turning tide, Orion Wolfes father, the City Lord, didnt hesitate to take the lead and join the final battle once more.
On the other side, seeing their powerful fighters dominate the battle.
The soldiers who had just recovered theirposure were filled with high morale and formed a sturdy formation to cooperate with their allies in the final cleanup.
Then, after a brief moment, the battlefield becamepletely silent.
Quick, open the city gate and wee the Lord into the city! At this moment, Orion Wolfes father, the City Lord, didnt hesitate and immediately ordered one of the Imperial Guardmanders.
After that, he and Orion Wolfe quicklynded in front of Leo Ray at the castle gate along with the three elders, who were still in shock.
Lord, I knew that you woulde to save us! Seeing Orion Wolfe stepping forward in excitement, and bowing to Leo Ray.
Thank you very much, Lord, foring to the rescue! After that, Orion Wolfes father and the three elders didnt hesitate to bow their heads as well.
You dont have to be so polite, it was just a helping hand. Leo Ray waved his hand slightly and nodded.
Afterward, through Orion Wolfes brief introduction, Leo Ray learned that her father, the City Lord, was called Adams, and the three elders beside him were members of the Elders Council of Mystara City, including the Grand Elder.
Leo Ray had already heard about this Grand Elder from Kara on the way, and since he was no longer a threat, there was no need to worry about these three.
Of course, some necessary deterrence and punishment were still required.
In any case, these trivial matters can wait until after the Lords Mansion of Mystara City ispletely restored.
With this thought, Leo Ray greeted briefly and instructed Gideon ck to temporarily join the wounded soldiers rescue team.
Then he said, All right, everyone, the current situation is notpletely safe, so Ill keep it short.
Next, Leo Ray simply and concisely recounted what they had learned so far.So thats how it is
After listening to Leo Rays description, Ayd, the father of Orion Wolfe (Fayesha), the City Lord, couldnt help but show a solemn expression again and muttered to himself, I didnt expect that in our Mystara City, there would be a Winged Races Barrier Region from thousands of years ago, and the entrance is right where the City Lords Mansion is located.
On the other side, Orion Wolfe and the three Elders also looked utterly incredulous, swallowing their saliva one after another.
Thousands of years of time, the mysterious Winged Race, petrification; any one of these words that only appeared in legends would be unforgettable for a lifetime.
As I just said, the current situation is due to the deterioration of the barrier region over time. In order to maintain the space-time bnce, the barrier automatically made these adjustments.
Signaling everyone to stay calm, Leo Ray continued, So, as long as we can find a way to repair this barrier region, then in order to restore the bnce between the two disrupted spaces, the barriers automatic repair mechanism will naturally spit out the City Lords Mansion and the ind again.
My Lord, do you mean that we should go to the core of this barrier region, which is the arrays eye and its central system, and then inject magic power back into the long-neglected and inactivated magic array, thereby letting the normal barrier region automatically repair itself again?
Upon hearing this, Adams, the City Lord of Mystara, suddenly looked enlightened.
Thats right, exactly. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray replied, At the moment, there has just been a battle here; you only need to clean up the battlefield, but be careful not to leave the City Lords Mansions area. Leave the rest to us, and we can discuss other matters when everything returns to normal.
Understood. On the other side, Adams nodded, bowed slightly again, and said, Ill leave it all in your hands then, my Lord.
Next, without hesitation, Leo Ray let the rtively weaker Kara stay behind to clean up, and then, taking Orion Wolfe, Amelia, and Gideon ck, who had just finished casting arge-scale healing spell, they left directly.
My Lord, we cant thank you enough! At this moment, Orion Wolfe, who had rejoined the group, looked incredibly grateful as she darted through the forest, saying, If it werent for your timely arrival, Im afraid we wouldve been in great danger.
Hearing this, Amelia, who was beside her, also eagerly nodded her head in agreement.
No need to be polite; discovering this barrier region was an unexpected gain. As they sped through, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said,
Not long ago, after carefully examining the square filled with the winged races stone statues, Leo Ray found that it was the transfer station of the barrier region. In front of the white-domed building at the end of the za, there was a whole row of teleportation magic arrays that led to different floating inds.
After a quick investigation of the magic arrays by his subordinates, it was found that about half led to ordinary residential areas, while the other half led to various functional regions, like training grounds, barracks, and something like a town hall.
In these different regions, there were also many winged race stone statues that had clearly been affected by petrification magic.
Immediately afterward, Leo Ray and his group found the magic array leading to this forest region and swiftly arrived at the scene.
Based on the current situation, the central area of this barrier region is very likely to be the town hall region we just visited. Since thats the case, lets investigate there first.
As Leo Ray thought this, the eight of them had already returned to the za via the teleportation magic array.
How magnificent
At this moment, Orion Wolfe and Amelia, who hade to the floating za for the first time, couldnt help but exim in amazement as they looked at the various winged race stone statues scattered throughout the area.
Alright, lets head to the town hall of this barrier region first. Lets investigate whether theres an array eye there while also looking for any other gains.
Signaling the two women to focus their attention on the teleportation magic array in front of them, Leo Ray smiled gently.
Chapter 474 - 362: The White Tower_1
Chapter 474: Chapter 362: The White Tower_1
Next, they stepped directly onto the hexagram-shaped teleportation magic array that emitted a faint gray glow.
Apanied by a momentary sense of weightlessness, their surroundings changed in a sh.
When Leo Rays vision cleared,
he found himself on a new floating ind.
Soon after, amidst the crowd of subordinates, Leo Ray noticed
that the area here was almost simr in size to the floating za he had seen earlier, equally vast.
A straight and wide avenue made of white marble led directly to a cluster of buildings at the end of the ind.
On both sides of the avenue were all kinds of lush green nts and towering trees.
Due to the prolongedck of maintenance, many nts had spread over the spacious road.
This gave the ce a feeling of walking into ancient ruins.
Under the bright sunlight, the inteced shadows of the tall trees and the sunlight created an overwhelming visual effect.
Lord, this is the suspected administrative area discovered by my subordinates just now.
As Leo Ray was observing the ce,
at the front of the team, Gideon ck slightly bowed and said, After a brief investigation by my subordinates, there is no trace of any advanced magic puppets.
Very good. Breathing in the fresh air brought by the vast greenery, Leo Ray gestured to move forward.
Walking quickly along the tree-shaded avenue, Leo Ray and his team soon approached the buildingplex in thetter half of the floating ind.
Upon close observation, these milky white buildings were simr to those on the floating za, with round roofs.
The buildings themselves were either tall tower-like or castle-like squares.
The varying heights gave the ce an exotic feel.
However, just like the avenue where Leo Ray and his team currently stood,
the surfaces of these buildings were almost entirely covered by moss and vines.
At a nce, the mottled milky white and the vibrant green symbolizing life intertwined, exuding an ancient vitality.
Lord, ording to the information gathered by my subordinates, the Winged Race usually distinguishes the importance of buildings by their height.
At this moment, Scarlett came forward with small steps, pointing at a building in front, and slightly bowed to Leo Ray, So,
in my judgment, that tallest white tower is the most important ce here!
I see. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray looked in the direction Scarlett pointed and noticed
that the white tower was indeed the tallest building here, about ten stories high.
Moreover, unlike ordinary cylindrical towers,
this Winged Race building was a regr hexagonal prism, angr and unique.
Even more crucially, it had an extensive floor area, of more than three thousand square meters, almost the size of five acres.
Wow, its like an office building in a fantasy world.
Looking at the scene, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows, slowly retracting his gaze and continued walking.
As they approached the tower, Leo Ray discovered
that there were hundreds of Winged Race statues standing scattered around the main entrance and surrounding area.
These Winged people were mostly dressed as warriors, mostly holding weapons in a standing posture.
It seemed that they were on guard when they encountered petrification magic and had no time to react.
Gazing at the petrified statues covered with vines, Leo Ray took a deep breath, and his eyes fell on the towers gate.
At that time, probably due to theck of time to react,
the towers gate was wide open, with no obstructions.
Lets go in and have a look.
Noticing this, Leo Ray took another step forward and made a continue-moving-forward gesture to his subordinates.
Stepping directly into the tower and looking around, Leo Ray was amazed to find
a very peculiar scene inside the white tower.
Upon entering, they first saw a central courtyard area that spanned more than half of the building.
Around the courtyard were neat rows of crystal-colored translucent tforms, six or seven floors high.
One could vaguely see that there were evenly distributed entrances to rooms on the innermost part of the tform.
Furthermore, the floors and walls here were made of white marble, which made the entire building resemble a huge milky white honeb.
Lord, this is one of the mostmon characteristic structures of the Winged Races buildings. For their race, which can fly freely,
this structure allowing quick ess to any room within the building is undoubtedly extremely convenient.
At this moment, Scarlett blinked her signature big eyes and spoke softly.
Interesting. Hearing this, Leo Ray could not help but look intrigued and continued to observe.
On the floor where everyone was standing, besides a few rooms and scattered Winged Race statues, there were also ordinary stairs leading to the upper floors.
Chapter 475 - 362: The White Tower_2
Chapter 475: Chapter 362: The White Tower_2
Moreover, the ce was filled with glittering Light Crystal Stones, which hadsted through the long passage of time.
Although the radiance emitted by these Light Crystal Stones had greatly diminished, they still provided a good lighting effect.
Immediately following, Leo Ray waved his hand casually.
10 Earth Guardians wielding heavy swords and shields appeared out of thin air.
Apanied by a series of heavy footsteps, they began to guard the entrances of the first floor and various key points in the lobby area.
At the moment, given that everything was still not clear, it was naturally better to be cautious.
My Lord, there are not only stairs leading to the upper level but also passages leading underground, Gideon cks slightly surprised voice came into Leo Rays ear.
Understood. In that case, lets go downstairs first. Hearing this, Leo Ray gave a slight ponder and then nodded to his subordinates around him.
Yes, My Lord! Upon hearing this, the subordinates bowed their fists together and respectfully responded.
Following along the not-so-steep white marble steps downward,
it didnt take long for Leo Ray and his party to arrive at a mottled metal door guarded by more than a dozen tall Winged Race statues.
I didnt expect the pration power of the Petrification Magic to be so strong.
Seeing this scene, Gideon ck, who was next to him, pushed up his Gold-rimmed sses and couldnt help but exim, It seems that
the entire Winged Race in this area may have been petrified at the same time.
It has to be said that such powerful Petrification Magic is unheard of.
Orion Wolfe, who was beside him, subconsciously stroked his messy hair, then chimed in.
Thats right, we can imagine that at that time, the Winged Race within this Barrier Area must have encountered a very powerful and mysterious enemy.
On the other side, Scarlett took a deep breath and continued solemnly, You have to know, just like Uncle Priest said,
the bacsh effect of Petrification Magic on the caster is extremely strong.
Therefore, we must do our best to enhance our abilities as soon as possible. The great catastrophe that may happen at any time may already be imminent.
At that time, its still uncertain whether a terrible disaster will befall the heavens and earth as mentioned in the prophecy.
Upon saying this, Leo Ray changed the subject and continued, Alright, for now, lets focus on the task at hand.
Yes, My Lord! Gideon ck, Scarlett, and Orion Wolfe, the three Magic powerhouses, immediately began to investigate the metal door in front of them.
This giant metal door, with the naked eye, could clearly see
that there was a faintly colorful Magic Flow Light shing on it, apparently sealed with a magic lock.
Next, after a detailed investigation,
Gideon ck returned to Leo Rays side, bowed, and reported, My Lord, this metal door was originally subjected to several powerful Magic Restrictions.
However, they are now all in an extremely unstable state of copse, and opening it should not be difficult with just a little pressure applied.
Oh? Why did this happen? Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a puzzled look.
It should be known that Magic Restriction, also known as a perfect magic lock, is not as simple as a lock on a door.
It is a huge Barrier that seals an entire room, or even an entire area, all on its own, and has aplete energy storage and absorption function, which allows it to exist for a long time.
For example, the Immortal Gate of Golin City and the Elf Underground City deep inside that has not yet been opened, etc.
My Lord, if my guess is correct,
these Winged Race Magic Restrictions are rather special and not self-contained entities.
Instead, they share amon high-power Magic Power Supply point, or a High-power Magic Power Supply Array.And this high-power magic power supply array is already in a damaged state with its magic power nearly exhausted.
On the other side, Gideon ck pushed up his gold-rimmed sses and began to exin, The advantage of the Winged Race doing this is that it can strengthen the solidity of the magic restriction.
Compared to themon energy supply magic array that can maintain only one magic restriction.
This high-power magic array, although its magic power output is extremely powerful and has a self-circting mechanism.
However, the weakness is also very obvious.
That is, it requires frequent maintenance, and after three thousand years of neglect, this magic restriction has finally fallen into a damaged state on the verge of copse.
I see, so this magic restriction is to strengthen solidity at the expense of duration, right?
Thoughtfully nodding, Leo Ray muttered, I suppose the Winged Race here never thought that one day they would be petrified by an unknown enemy all at once, did they?
Then, Leo Ray refocused and said, Alright, lets open this metal door.
As youmand, my Lord. Hearing this, Gideon ck returned to the heavy metal door, slowly cing his shimmering dark golden palms on the surface of the door.
A momentter, apanied by the sound of shattering ss.
The magic flow light on the surface of the giant metal door began to fade rapidly, visible to the naked eye, until it disappearedpletely.
Next second, with a slightly harsh creaking sound, the metal door opened in response.
And so, surrounded by his subordinates, Leo Ray stood at the entrance of the metal door looking inwards.
A look of surprise crossed Leo Rays face.
In this vast underground space, where the end could not be seen, there were hundreds ofrge and small magic arrays of various colors flickering.
These magic arrays were of different shapes, including the mostmon hexagram, circle, ellipse, triangle, and even irregr polygon patterns, and so on.
Moreover, some magic arrays were attached to the walls and ground, some floating in the air, some spinning quickly, some moving slowly, and some simply standing still.
At a nce, the dazzling colors were like a giant, operating precision machine, leaving one amazed and overwhelmed.
In addition, it could be clearly seen that among these magic arrays, many of them had dim or flickering light, looking as if they were about to stop operating.
At the same time, an extremely strong energy fluctuation rushed towards them from the metal door, filling the air with an ancient and old taste.
My Lord, it seems that this is the focal point of the barrier area!
On the other side, Scarletts eyes lit up in surprise, and she couldnt help but blurt out.
Hearing this, Gideon ck and Orion Wolfe, the two magic powerhouses of their own side, were astonished and nodded in agreement.
If thats the case, then this ce is entrusted to Gideon ck and Scarlett. Restore these magic arrays to normal as soon as possible.
After a while, Leo Ray, who had recovered from his surprise, instructed, I will leave six Earth Guardians here to protect you.
We will be there at the first sign of any unexpected situation.
Undoubtedly, although they couldntmunicate with their subordinates through mind talk in this barrier area.
However, if the Earth Guardians were attacked, Leo Ray could still detect it in real-time.
Understood, my Lord! On the other side, Gideon ck and Scarlett bowed their fists and responded in unison.
Alright, lets go with the rest of us. Lets take this opportunity to continue searching this white tower for any other gains.
After nodding to the two of them and cing six Earth Guardians at the door, Leo Ray left the underground space with Taylor, Orion Wolfe, and the others.
After that, they went up along the staircase.
On the second floor of the White Tower, Leo Rays party quickly found an area simr to a storage room.
In this area, many fully armed winged warrior stone statues guarded the entrances of the rooms, making it appear extremely secure.
I didnt expect to find something this good here!
So, after some investigation, when Leo Ray saw the sparkling, multicolored objects in a small warehouse, he couldnt help but show a look of excitement.
Chapter 476 - 363: Substantial Gains in the Sealed Area_1
Chapter 476: Chapter 363: Substantial Gains in the Sealed Area_1
At this moment, in a delicate small metal cab, what appeared before Leo Ray was an old drawing shimmering with magical flow light.
The surface of this drawing had already turnedpletely yellow, and in some ces, even showed small ck mold spots.
However, the faint energy fluctuations emanating from it indicated that it had not lost its intended effect.
Its the long-lost Miracle Building Blueprint!
Overjoyed, Leo Ray sniffed the antique aroma emanating from the drawing and opened its attribute column.
[Miracle Building Blueprint: Illusory Vision Tower]
[Required materials: Stone x50000, Wood x20000, Wind Spirit Stone x5000, Blue Moonstone x500]
So its called the Illusory Vision Tower, huh? Judging by the name, it seems to be rted to illusions, but Im curious about the specific effects. I cant help but look forward to it.
Thinking this, Leo Rays eyes shifted slightly as he continued to observe the attribute column while murmuring to himself, As for the materials needed, besides the two basic first-ss resources of Stone and Wood.
Are the other two, Wind Spirit Stone and Blue Moonstone, both level 2 rare resources?
Among them, Ive found 1500 units of Blue Moonstone in the Elf Underground City before, while Wind Spirit Stone is a new resource Ive never seen.
In any case, Ill store it away for now. To get a new Miracle Building Blueprint is already a considerable gain.
Immediately afterwards, Leo Ray waved his hand and stored the long-sealed Winged Race construction drawing directly into the Space Bracelet.
Then, Leo Ray, apanied by Taylor and Bianca White, continued to search the small warehouse resembling an archive room.
They discovered that there were some ordinary building blueprints that had lost their magic power and were no longer usable.
Based on the attribute column, almost all of them were various traditional residences of the Winged Race, with nothing particrly special.
It seems this is a room specifically for storing building blueprints.
After carefully investigating, Leo Ray nodded to Taylor and Bianca White, and the three of them left the room directly.
Lord, pleasee and take a look. Orion Wolfes clear voice rang out from the neighboring room as they stepped out.
On my way. Hearing this, Leo Ray followed Orion Wolfes voice and stepped forward.
Upon entering the neighboring room, Leo Ray noticed that itsyout was nearly identical to the small warehouse they had just left.
The only difference was that instead of metal cabs, there were ss disy cabs.
Inside these disy cabs, various colors shed, and they contained a dazzling array of high-ranking equipment!
Seeing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a hint of joy on his face, and immediately began to examine them closely.
Upon closer inspection, the shing disy cabs were almost all surrounded by a faint circr semi-transparent shield, sometimes shimmering with magical flow light.
The remaining disy cabs that were not covered by the translucent shield had all their equipment turned to stone, just like those held by the Winged Race outside.
In short, whether it was the colorful disy cabs or the drab stone disy cabs, it felt like they had entered an exhibition hall in a museum.
Lord, as we have seen before, petrification magic can turn a targets equipment into stone.
This means that petrification magic is also effective on equipment.
At this point, Orion Wolfe stroked his short, rough hair and bowed slightly to Leo Ray, The equipment in this treasure warehouse that hasnt been petrified,
Has been spared thanks to the presence of these small protective barriers.
I see. Leo Ray nodded slightly, walking slowly and directly to one of the storage cabs wrapped in a transparent shield.
Inside, there was an odd-looking, grainy ck leather armor that seemed exceptionally lightweight.
Leo Ray was, of course, no stranger to these small barriers for protecting equipment.
He had seen them once before in the equipment storage of the Elf Underground City.
At this, Leo Ray turned his head slightly and asked Orion Wolfe, How about it? Can you break the protective barrier here?
My Lord, no problem.
With a smile, Orion Wolfe stood confidently with his chest puffed out, These protective barriers have withstood the test of time.
Plus, they were subjected to the intense impact of petrification magic back then, just like the magical restrictions we saw earlier, they are on the verge of copsing.
So please rest assured, my Lord. Leave the task of breaking the barrier to your subordinate.
I see. Then Ill leave it to you. Upon hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, took a few steps back, and gestured to Orion Wolfe to begin.
Orion Wolfe, dressed in light-colored clothing, took a deep breath, moved with graceful steps, and went directly in front of the disy cab.
Apanied by a difficult-to-pronounce chanting sound,
Agentle pale-gold magic energy ripples burst from her snowy white fingertips, and fully adhered to the circr semi-transparent barrier in front of her.
The next second, like it had been melted away, the semi-transparent barrier enveloping the disy cab swiftly disintegrated and disappeared into the air.
Chapter 477 - 363: Substantial Gains in the Sealed Area_2
Chapter 477: Chapter 363: Substantial Gains in the Sealed Area_2
At the same time, the ss door of the disy cab opened as well.
Seeing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and opened the attribute column of the leather armor in front of him.
[Name: Disguisers Leather Armor]
[Grade: Tier 4 -Epic (Purple)]
[Defense Strength
[Additional Effect: Camouge Inject a small amount of energy, and the color of the leather armor will change ording to the surrounding environment.]
[Remark: A magical leather armor made by a master craftsman of the Winged Race,bining the characteristics of three flying, color-changing demon beasts.]
It can quickly change color to match the surrounding environment in any setting, creating a confusing visual effect for enemies.
Moreover, this leather armor inherits the lightness of flying demon beasts, making it no less lightweight than cloth armor of the same tier.]
Well, this leather armor can change color ording to the environment? This world is full of wonders.
If Ibine it with my Mirage Illusion Skill, wouldnt it make my enemies dazzled?
Thinking of this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate and immediately put it into his space bracelet, starting the upgrade right away.
Soon after, a familiar prompt sounded in his ears.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Armor: Disguisers Leather Armor has been upgraded to Tier 5 Armor: Disguisers Protection]!
Upgraded directly to Tier 5? Slightly raising his eyebrows, Leo Ray opened the attribute column of the new armor again.
[Name: Disguisers Protection]
[Grade: Tier 5 C Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Defense Strength:
[Additional Effect One: Camouge Inject a small amount of energy, and the color of the leather armor will change ording to the surrounding environment.]
[Additional Effect Two: Magic Resistance C Uncanny Half damage from magic attacks below Tier 5]
[Remark: A precious armor that adds a special rare anti-magic material on the basis of the Disguisers Leather Armor.]
In addition to color-changing, it also boasts excellent resistance to magic, making it extremely hard toe by.]
Not bad, not only does it have the magic resistance effect of the Tier 4 leather armor Magic Wing Dragons Protection Im wearing, it also adds the color-changing feature.
It seems that my armor can also reach the Tier 5 level!
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction, and his face immediately filled with excitement.
After the excitement, he regained his spirits, took a step forward, and came to another disy cab.
This disy cab was almost as high as the ceiling, and the protective barrier on it had been removed by Orion Wolfe.
Inside, there was an exquisite lookingnce.
Upon closer inspection, this all-metalnce was silver-white, with an extremely sharp and cold tip.
Without hesitation, Leo Ray opened the attribute column of thence.
[Name: Sky Knights Lance]
[Grade: Tier 4 C Epic (Purple)]
[Attack Strength:
[Additional Effect: Vacuum Piercing Physical Pration Increased by 50%]
[Remark: Thisnce is said to be one of the honorary equipment of a Winged Race knight team. Only the most outstanding Winged knights are eligible to receive thisnce.]
A Tier 4nce?
Seeing this, Leo Ray immediately began upgrading it.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Sky Knights Lance has been upgraded to Tier 4 Weapon: Sky Knights Lance] x100!
Quantity increase? Now, my Tier 3 Wyvern Knight Squad can all be equipped with Tier 4nces!
Upon hearing the prompt, a surprised look appeared on Leo Rays face once again.
He murmured to himself in his heart, Thats right, I still havent found the Wyverns for Sean and the others.
It seems I need to hurry up and get that done.
As he thought, Leo Ray continued to move forward.
Next, he arrived at anotherrge disy cab that contained a Tier 4 short sword, a Tier 4 metal longbow, and a Tier 4 metal crossbow.Raising his eyebrows slightly, Leo Ray put all the weapons into his bag and began upgrading again.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Sylphs de has been upgraded to Tier 5 Weapon: Wind Gods de!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Wings of Sky Bow has been upgraded to Tier 4 Weapon: Wings of Sky Bow 101!
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Sylphs Crossbow has been upgraded to Tier 5 Weapon: Wind Gods Crossbow!]
Both the short sword and the crossbow have been upgraded to Tier 5? I must say, this time the harvest is quite bountiful.
Hearing this, excited, Leo Ray sessively opened the attribute columns of these two weapons.
[Name: Wind Gods de]
[Grade: Tier 5 C Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Attack Strength: ]
[Additional Effect One: Winds Protection 60% reduction in damage from Wind attribute spells below Tier 5]
[Additional Effect Two: Winds Agility 40% increase in movement speed]
[Description: This short sword came from the hands of a Winged Race master forger. It is said that he also crafted a Tier 5 crossbow of the same rank, and infused a special secret technique into it.
When these two weapons appear simultaneously, and are within a certain distance, the damage output of the weapons themselves will be further enhanced.]
[Name: Wind Gods Crossbow]
[Grade: Tier 5 C Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Attack Strength: ]
[Additional Effect One: Winds Protection 60% reduction in damage from Wind attribute spells below Tier 5]
[Additional Effect Two: Winds Rage Physical pration increased by 60%]
[Description: This is the Wind Gods Crossbow, the sister weapon to the Wind Gods de. When these two weapons appear simultaneously and are within a certain distance, the damage output of both weapons themselves will be further enhanced.]
Not bad, not bad. After Serena and Ste are promoted to Tier 4, they have not yet changed their Tier 4 weapons in their hands.
In this case, both of them can be equipped with national-level Tier 5 weapons like Scarlett!
Moreover, the bonus effect of the two weapons at close range can also enhance the strength of these inseparable twin sisters!
Closing the attribute column, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction.
Afterward, Leo Ray and his party continued their investigation in the room.
They sessively harvested 6 different styles of Tier 3 level magic robes and sessfully upgraded to 300 Tier 3 magic robes and 3 Tier 4 magic robes.
At this point, the Winged Races equipment showroom has been thoroughly cleaned by the party.
Orion, can the petrified equipment in this room be restored to its original state?
At this time, looking at the heavy stone magic wand in front of him, Leo Ray helplessly curled his lip and asked again.
My Lord, these petrified equipment can theoretically be restored to their original state.
However, just like the petrified Winged Race people, at least at the current stage, we have no way of unlocking them, or rather, there are no such powerful beings in the entire Coldme Kingdom.
On the other side, Orion lowered her brow, also helplessly shaking her head, and then responded.
I understand, lets take it one day at a time.
Nodding slightly, Leo Ray didnt say anything else. After putting the batch of petrified equipment into the space bracelet,
he took his subordinates and left the empty equipment warehouse.
Afterward, the party, who had not found any other discoveries after investigating all the rooms on the second floor, directly went to the third floor through the staircase.
After some searching on this floor, Leo Ray and his party sessively found several resource warehouses.
Eventually, they obtained a total of 20,000 units of Wind Spirit Stones, 10,000 units of Obsidian, 1,000 units of Dark Magic Crystals, and 1,000 units of Blue Moonstones.
With these Wind Spirit Stones and Blue Moonstones, once we return to the Demonic Shadow Forest, the third miracle building can rise from the ground!
After leaving thest resource warehouse, Leo Ray couldnt help but excitedly rub his hands and secretly pondered, Additionally,
10,000 units of Obsidian and 1,000 units of Dark Magic Crystals are enough to make the Guardian Defense Mechanism rise by 1 level.
By then, the strength of the Earth Guardians and Sky Guardians will undoubtedly reach a new height as well!
It must be said that this time, the harvest was truly bountiful!
And so, while thinking like this, Leo Ray led his subordinates and continued to explore the unknown White Tower carefully.
Chapter 478 - 364: Gale Wings_1
Chapter 478: Chapter 364: Gale Wings_1
After this, Leo Ray and his entourage continued their search upwards within the white tower.
However, the other floors were all ordinary office areas.
Besides encountering numerous cobwebs and thickyers of dust, there were no other discoveries until the group arrived at the staircase leading to the top floor.
Lord, judging from the architecturalyout, the area on the top floor ispletely closed off as an unknown space.
It is entirely different from the multiyered atrium area we just passed through in the central part. Lord, please be cautious.
At this time, Taylor bowed slightly to Leo Ray.
Understood. Lets see what kind of secret this distinct area at the top hides.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded to his subordinates surrounding him and took the first step.
Following the white marble staircase, they arrived at the entrance area of the White Towers top floor.
The first thing they saw was a spacious and bright hall.
At a nce, thevishly decorated hall had a row of withered and discolored potted nts and petrified winged people standing scattered around.
The cobwebs in the corners and floating dust on the exquisite wall sculptures all gave a sense of antiquity.
At the end of the hall was a giant metal double-leaf gate, evenrger than the one they had encountered in the underground area.
Next, Taylor, whose energy surged and remained on alert, first bowed slightly to Leo Ray.
Then, he stepped forward and pushed open the metal doors.
As the doors creaked, a vast space unfolded before Leo Rays eyes.
Escorted by his subordinates, Leo Ray entered and noticed that the top floor of the White Tower was also a cylindrical open space that connected to the lower half.
Moreover, theyout here was even more exceptional.
Unlike the honeb-like lower half with individual floors and rooms, this part was a single vast entity.
However, on the walls of this cylindrical space, there were over a hundred small, individual tforms distributed at varying heights and distances.
Each tform had a luxurious wooden chair.
And on each chair, either standing or sitting, was a winged person who had turned into a stone statue.
Upon close inspection, these winged people were generally older, mostly middle-aged and elderly.
Some stone statues had wide-open mouths and outstretched arms, passionately saying something, while others showed impatience, sitting with crossed legs and listening.
Yet others had their hands covering their heads, seemingly at a loss.
All these details revealed that there was a heated discussion or debate taking ce at that time.
In summary, a single nce at these hundreds of winged statues scattered throughout this vast space revealed there were different forms.
It seemed like a silent y paused, leaving observers overwhelmed.
Lord, this ce should be the Elders Council of these winged people,
After a moment of observation, Orion Wolfe stepped forward and said, It seems that the Winged Race in this barrier area had encountered a challenging problem.
Indeed, that seems to be the case, Bianca White chimed in, her ears twitching above her head.
She continued, Many of them look flushed and excited. Even the Elders Council, which represents the highest authority of the entire race, was in such chaos.
From this, we can infer that there was indeed a significant event back then
Once we find a way to reverse the petrification, everything will be clear, Leo Ray gestured for his team to disperse and investigate while taking another step.
Next, as he slowly strolled through the long-sealed Winged People Elders Council, he began to think about the current situation.
It must be said that the barrier area of the Winged Race was too vast, and it would be a waste of time to explore it one by one with just their own group.
Right, as this ce is within the Mystara City Lord Mansion area,
it would be most appropriate to entrust Orion Wolfes father, the City Lord Adams, with the thorough exploration. I should make arrangements for thatter.
Of course, before that, I will need to recruit Adams under my banner, which will also bring the whole Mystara City under my control.
Upon realizing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and continued to ponder: Currently, I only have three Tier 2 Recruitment Orders that have not been upgraded this morning.
I do not have any avable Tier 3 Recruitment Orders for use during the signing of the pact.
Since the probability of a Tier 2 Recruitment Order being directly upgraded to a Tier 4 Recruitment Order is slim,
and my next target is the Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse, Holy Light General Joshua, who is with Ariel Watson,
I am nning to save more and upgrade them altogether at once.
If I need a Tier 3 Recruitment Order to recruit Adams now, I should upgrade these three Tier 2 Recruitment Orders first.
Chapter 479 - 364: Gale Wings_2
Chapter 479: Chapter 364: Gale Wings_2
With that thought in mind, Leo Ray slightly curled his lips and began to upgrade.
Following that, a familiar prompt sounded in his ears.
[Congrattions! Your Tier 2 Recruitment Order has been upgraded to Tier 3 Recruitment Order!]
[Congrattions! Your Tier 2 Recruitment Order has been upgraded to Tier 4 Recruitment Order!]
[Congrattions! Your Tier 2 Recruitment Order has been upgraded to Tier 3 Recruitment Order!]
Wow, three qualitative changes and two Tier 3 Recruitment Orders, as well as a much-needed Tier 4 Recruitment Order for our side!
I must say, this is another great harvest.
After hearing the prompt, the joy on Leo Rays face could not be concealed as he thought to himself, Not bad, not bad. With this
Not only the Recruitment Order for Ed the current Lord of the Mystara City, even the Recruitment Order for the Holy Light General Joshua is ready!
Just as Leo Ray was excited about this thought
On the other side, Orion Wolfes slightly surprised, clear voice reached his ears: My Lord, pleasee over and have a look.
Upon reaching the location where Orion Wolfe was, Leo Ray found
It was a corner of the wall, directly opposite the door, looking no different from other walls and seemingly having nothing special about it.
However, after concentrating for a moment, Leo Ray noticed a faint energy fluctuation emanating from it.
My Lord, this is an extraordinarily sophisticated hidden magic restriction.
At this moment, Orion Wolfe next to him bowed slightly and began to exin, Generally speaking, hidden types of magic restrictions
are a standard feature of the Elf Tribe, but apparently, there are experts in this field among the Winged Race as well.
So thats how it is. Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.
He had previously encountered a hidden type of magic restriction at the entrance to the Elf Underground City.
Realizing this, a curious expression appeared on Leo Rays face, and he asked, Orion, are you suggesting that there might be a hidden room behind this wall?
Yes, My Lord, thats precisely what I am saying. Having nodded slightly, Orion Wolfe confidently responded, This hidden magic restrictions been in ce for a very long time, exposing many ws.
Besides, my chosen major at the Noble Academy is Foreign Race Magic Restriction Studies. So it should be no problem to remove this magic restriction.
Very good. Upon hearing this, Leo Ray stepped back a bit and gestured for Orion Wolfe to proceed.
Thus, momentster, apanied by crisp chants, the faint golden light emanating from Orion Wolfes body, his slender fingers pointed in the air consecutively.
One small golden magic circle after another condensed and formed instantly, starting to spin slowly like gears.
Not long after, apanied by a crisp sound like that of metal chains breaking or ss hitting the ground
The wall in front of Leo Ray, which had no cracks initially, responded and opened, moving upwards slowly, ultimately forming the outline of a door.
Gazing at the hidden room of the Winged Race before him, without any hesitation, Leo Ray walked in directly, apanied by his subordinates.
Upon entering, Leo Ray noticed
The space here was extremely limited, about the size of an ordinary bedroom.
However, at the end of the hidden room stood a conspicuous silver metal table.
On the tabley an exquisitely crafted, wing-shaped golden ornament, approximately the size of two palms.
Upon closer inspection, the expanded wing-shaped ornament closely resembled the wings on the Winged Races back.
The texture was incredibly intricate, with each feather clearly visible, undoubtedly making it an exquisite piece of art.
It is worth mentioning that under the illumination of the Light Crystal Stone in the hidden room
The surface of the wings reflected a dim, eerie glow, seemingly absorbing some of the light sources.
Moreover, its base was covered with intricate patterns.At first nce, it seemed like an inescapablebyrinth, causing one to feel dizzy.
This feeling Ive seen it somewhere before.
Seeing this, Leo Ray slightly furrowed his brows and then suddenly understood.
Thats right; it was the Eternal Night Magic Box that he had obtained at the Viennas City Auction before.
I remember the Eternal Night Magic Box is also from the nk Age three thousand years ago. Could there be any connection between these two?
With a confused look, Leo Ray slowly approached and opened the attribute column of this mysterious object.
[Name: Wind and Cloud Wings]
[Belonging Race: Winged People]
[Function: ???]
[Remark: An ancient item that disappeared with a branch of the Winged Race. Background and function are unknown, but it can be confirmed that this item poses no danger.]
Well, even the attribute column is quite simr to the Eternal Night Magic Box. Maybe there really is a connection, but its still uncertain.
As Leo Ray was thinking about this, suddenly
The building shook violently without warning, making it impossible for people to stand steadily.
At the same time, a very intense energy fluctuation began to sweep in from the outside of the secret room where everyone was.
However, the shaking and energy fluctuationssted only a blink of an eye and quickly returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Lord, this energy fluctuation is identical to the one that was emitted from the array eye in the underground area earlier.
It seems that Senior Gideon ck and Scarlett have already restored the array eye! Orion Wolfes slightly excited voice then reached Leo Rays ears.
Lets go outside and take a look. Leo Ray nodded slightly, put the Wind and Cloud Wings in front of him into his Space Bracelet, and then confirmed that there were no other items in the room.
Then, leading his subordinates, they left the secret chamber directly.
Next, they went down the stairs they had used to enter.
After a short while, Leo Ray and his group returned to the first floor of the White Tower.
Gideon ck and Scarlett, along with the six Earth Guardians who had been guarding them, were already waiting there.
Lord, the mission has beenpleted sessfully. On the other side, Gideon ck and Scarlett immediately greeted Leo Ray with a bow.
Well done. So, the Mystara City Lord Mansion and the ind it is on should have returned to normal, right? Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly and asked.
Yes, My Lord, replied Gideon ck, still bowing. The magic arrays in the central area of this Barrier region have basically been restored to normal.
And we have also cut off the energy supply of the Energy Supply Magic Array for those advanced magic puppets. So even if there are other advanced magic puppets here,
they wont pose any threat to us. In other words, this Barrier area of the Winged Race has beenpletely secured.
Very good. Satisfied, Leo Ray nodded and collected all sixteen Earth Guardians from the hall into his Space Bracelet.
By the way, my Lord, added Scarlett, stepping closer. When we activated the energy supply magic array of the Barrier entrances magical protective barrier,
we only activated the most basic part. This means that although this Barrier region has returned to its normal state, if we need to, we can still enter and exit at any time!
Well done. In that case, lets not waste any time and leave this ce. Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and said.
Yes, my Lord! Hearing this, everyone bowed and saluted Leo Ray.
Thus, following the path they had taken earlier, everyone made their way back and soon arrived at the Floating Ind where the Barrier entrance was.
Lets go. Surrounded by his subordinates, Leo Ray followed Taylors footsteps and stepped into the space rift to leave this ce.
Chapter 480 - 365: Ed’s Loyalty_1
Chapter 480: Chapter 365: Eds Loyalty_1
When Leo Rays vision cleared again,
he found himself in an unfamiliar, spacious hall.
The decorations here were exquisite, with Light Crystal Stones embedded in the walls shining brightly.
On the left and right walls, many shallow blue Water-floating Moon banners stood tall.
At the head of the room, an empty metal throne was ced.
Chirp, chirp!
At the same time, soft calls resounded.
Arge number of orioles, pping their wings, followed the people as they emerged from the barrier area of the Winged People just now.
Apparently, these were the pet birds that had mistakenly entered the barrier earlier.
Lord, this is the Assembly Hall of the Lords Mansion of Mystara City!
On the other side, Orion Wolfe, having observed his surroundings, his eyes lit up as he bowed slightly to Leo Ray and said, It seems that the City Lord Mansion has indeed returned to its original location!
So, the entrance to this barrier area is right in the hall of the City Lord Mansion? In this case, the security of the barrier area is indeed guaranteed.
Nodding slightly, watching the brightly colored orioles fly out of the windows one by one, Leo Ray then said to his subordinates, Alright, lets go out and take a look.
Thus, surrounded by his subordinates, Leo Ray walked straight out of the hall and noticed that,
Outside the hall was a castle corridor, with many servants and cleaning tools passing by hurriedly. Moreover, they all bowed to Orion Wolfe, the young City Lord.
It seemed that the entire Lords Mansion, after a series of inexplicable events, was undergoingrge-scale repairs and cleanup work.
Next, following Orion Wolfes guidance, Leo Ray quickly arrived at the edge of a castle balcony leading outside.
Standing on the balcony and looking out, Leo Ray discovered that,
The sky-blue castle and the small ind it was on had indeed returned to their original state, reappearing on the Lake in the Ind in the center of Mystara City.
At this moment, dusk had arrived, and the evening breeze was cool.
In the evening sky filled with sunset clouds, thest ray of orange sunlight from the two suns, onerge and one small, continuously fell into theke not far from the castle, filling the surroundings with a caramel-colored sparkling reflection.
Such a scene, against the simrly orange-tinted Gothic-style city streets in the distance,
Made everything look quite romantic and couldnt help but make people feel refreshed.
My lord, you have returned!
Just as Leo Ray looked at it,
Orion Wolfes father, Adams, along with the Grand Elder and two other elders, approached together.
They all bowed and said, Thank you, my lord, for saving our people in the Lords Mansion of Mystara City and hundreds of soldiers and servants!
No need for such formalities. Leo Ray waved his hand slightly and casually asked, How is the situation in the City Lord Mansion and the city now?
My lord, everything in the city has returned to normal.
Adams, who remained in a bowing posture, replied immediately, As for the wounded soldiers in the City Lord Mansion, they have also received proper treatment.
Thanks to your timely intervention, all losses have been minimized.
Very good. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray then led Adams and his own subordinates back to the hall they had just left.
Taylor, you may begin. A momentter, sitting on the throne at the head of the hall and revered by Adams, Leo Ray nodded at the burly man beside him.
As youmand, my lord. In the next second, a rugged voice resounded, and an overwhelming aurapletely isted the grand hall from the outside world.
A A Tier 5 Powerhouse Feeling the terrifying energy waves emanating from Taylor, Adams couldnt help but swallow and was speechless for a long time.
At that time, when this young lord hade to the rescue of the City Lord Mansion with great force, Adams had already noticed Taylors extraordinary strength.
It seemed that he had at least reached the level of a Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse, and from the current situation,
It was evident that this young lord had not fully revealed his powerful abilities.
Truly unfathomable I didnt expect that my daughter would find such a powerful backing.
As Adams mind was filled with waves,
Leo Ray nodded to Orion Wolfe beside him, indicating for him to reveal his true identity to Adams, the City Lord of Mystara City.
I, Adams Frost, swear to serve Lord Leo Ray to the death!
After a moment, upon hearing Orion Wolfes introduction,
A stunned Adams did not hesitate to kneel on one knee and lower his head deeply to Leo Ray.
This young lord not only helped him solve the financial crisis but also avoided a bloodbath caused by the impeachment of the Grand Elders faction, saving the Mystara City from disaster.
Moreover, he had just saved the entire Frost Family from danger in the barrier area, undoubtedly sparing them from misfortune twice.
The most crucial point was that his beloved daughter had found a ce where she could fully showcase her talents!
Not only were expensive alchemy materials readily avable, but she could also obtain priceless magical potion forms It was worth noting that this was a treatment that even the highly esteemed Royal Alchemists could not easily obtain.
Chapter 481 - 365: Ed’s Loyalty_2
Chapter 481: Chapter 365: Eds Loyalty_2
In short, how could he not dedicate himself to such a powerful figure who had shown him tremendous kindness?
Very well, lets begin the contract signing.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who slowly got off his throne with a smile, produced a Tier 3 Recruitment Order in his palm and directly began to sign a Master-Servant Contract.
Shortly after, a pleasant notification sound rang in Leo Rays ears.
[Congrattions, Tier 3 Nine Stars Moonlight Magician Adams Frost has signed a Master-Servant Contract with you and be a new subordinate of yours!]
Satisfied, Leo Ray opened the other partys Attribute Column.
[Name: Adams]
[upation: Moonlight Mage]
[Rank: Tier 3 Nine Stars]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Moons PrayerActive(Moon Attribute Single-target Healing, quickly recovers the targets injuries, and continuously restores over time)]
[Skill Two: Moon Spear ThrustActive(Moon Attribute Small Area Magic Group Attack, attached with Shield-breaking Effect and Armor-breaking Effect)]
[Skill Three: Moon Attribute Magic MasteryPassive(When using Moon Attribute Magic, increases damage significantly)]
After closing Adams Attribute Column, Leo Ray bent down to help him up.
Take these as a weing gift from me.
Next, Leo Ray moved his mind.
A brand new Storage Ring and an impressive Tier 4 Level Magic Wand emerged and were subsequently handed to Adams.
Thank you, My Lord! Taking the Tier 4 Magic Wand handed over by Leo Ray, Adamss joyful expression could not be hidden.
The value of a Tier 4 Level Wand can be seen as it often sells for nearly a million Gold Dragons at various auctions!
It is clear that Lord has given more than a wand, but a family heirloom!
As for the Storage Ring, there is no need to mention that since the Frost familys only one had already been given to Orion Wolfe as a birthday present.
After all, before this, Mystara City had been in a year-long family internal opposition, and they had also cultivated Orion, an alchemist.
Despite being the lord of a city, the real financial situation of Adams could only be described as difficult.
Its just a small thing. Slightly smiling, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, and 200 sets of shimmering Tier 3 Equipment were spread all over the ground.
For a time, the entire hall became colorful, and even the walls were illuminated with rainbow-colored halos.
Before, I noticed that Mystara City has two Tier 2 Royal Guard squads, an Archer squad and a Heavy Infantry squad.
Then, after getting a positive answer from Adams, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, Here are 100 sets of Tier 3 Leather Armor and Tier 3 Longbows, as well as 100 sets of Tier 3 Heavy Armor, Tier 3 Long Spears, and Tier 3 Large Shields.
You can gradually rece their equipment within a reasonable range for the two Royal Guard squads.
Undoubtedly, unlike the remote Cyan Town,
Mystara City, a yground city, is closer to the hearnd of the Coldme Kingdom.
Large-scale high-profile recement of equipment will inevitably attract the attention of surrounding cities and even the Coldme Royal Family.
Therefore, the bnce must be well-mastered.
On the other hand, looking at the extremely valuable Tier 3 equipment in front of him, Adams swallowed hard, hardly believing his eyes.
Perhaps only the Coldme Royal Family and the top aristocratic families, such as the Sanders family, could equip a Tier Second Royal Guard squad with Tier 3 Equipment!
In short, with this equipment, the overall strength of the two Tier 2 Royal Guard squads in Mystara City will undoubtedly be greatly improved!With that thought, Adams hurriedly bowed again and said, Understood, please rest assured, my Lord.
I know what to do. I will first select the most elite soldiers, starting with the weapons, and rece them in batches.
This way, we can further improve the enthusiasm and loyalty of the soldiers!
Very good. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray asked Adams about other matters concerning Mystara City.
He learned that in addition to the two Tier 2 Elite Squadrons.
Mystara City also has three Defense Army Corps and a Mystara City Defense Army Reserve Corps.
Among them, there is even a fully-formed Cavalry Corps.
As for the reserve corps, they were the soldiers who had been temporarily disbanded due tock of funds.
I see. Understanding this, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and then said, Expand Mystara Citys defense forces back to the level of fourrge corps as soon as possible.
After that, train some new soldiers to strive for a defense force of fiverge corps. If the funds are insufficient, just find me.
Yes, my Lord! Adams nodded and said, We still have a lot of the two million Gold Dragons you gave us before, my Lord. You dont need to worry about the financing issues.
Very good. Leo Ray nodded slightly and, after thinking for a moment, continued, By the way, be sure to block the news of todays incident in the Barrier Area.
Do you have any good suggestions for this?
Hearing this, Adams pondered for a while before responding, My Lord, in the history of Mystara City, there have been several small-scale, short-lived Mirage events.
As a result, situations simr to today have also urred. Therefore, I suggest that we dere that a small-scale Mirage event urred this time, causing the entire City Lords Mansion to disappear from its original position.
Very well, lets do that.
Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray paced slowly around the hall, continuing, At present, the Winged Peoples Barrier Area has been fully restored to normal.
As for the entrances location, you have already sensed it, havent you? Its right here in this hall.
Furthermore, the power supply of those advanced Magic Puppets has beenpletely removed, losing any dangers and allowing for normal exploration.
Therefore, while advancing the above-mentioned important matters, the investigation of the Barrier Area must also be carried out, as there are stillrge areas yet to be explored.
Yes! Please rest assured, my Lord! On the other side, Adams immediately bowed and replied, As soon as there is time, I will personally lead my trusted subordinates to investigate.
During normal times, this ce will bepletely sealed off, strictly forbidden for anyone to enter or leave.
Very good, be sure to report to me immediately whenever you discover anything new within the Barrier Area.
At this point, Leo Ray nodded slightly and then briefly informed Adams of his current situation, including Ariel Watson and herpanions, as well as his current ns.
On the other hand, it took Adams quite a while to process the explosive information he had just heard, delivered in Leo Rays calm tone, before finally responding.
He then asked, My Lord, does this mean that one of the main reasons for your trip is to learn about the situation of Holy Light General Joshua?
Thats right, exactly. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray walked back towards the throne and continued, On this matter, do you have any knowledge of this City Lord Adams?
My Lord, as far as I know, although this Holy Light General Joshuaes from a counts family in Coldme, her true identity is actually the foster daughter of the counts family, not of blood rtion, and of ordinary civilian background.
However, I dont have much detailed information about it. Adams stroked his neatly trimmed beard and chin, pondered for a moment, and responded.
Oh? As the adopted daughter of a noble family, she managed to climb all the way up to one of the Coldme Eight Major Kingdom Generals high positions? It seems that this Joshua has even more cunning than I thought.
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and instructed Adams, Alright, lets call Kara, who once served under her, toe in.
Lets see what makes this young and beautiful Holy Light General Joshua so special.
Chapter 482 - 366: Orange-White’s Past_1
Chapter 482: Chapter 366: Orange-Whites Past_1
A momentter, still dressed in armor, Kara was led by Adams and reappeared in front of Leo Ray.
At this time, when the female Defense Army Battalion Commander from Mystara City saw Leo Ray sitting on the main throne.
She quickly bowed, her expression more respectful than before, saying, I pay my respects to Milord!
Undoubtedly, being able to have the City Lord give up his seat, the status of this young important figure was evident.
Moreover, when inside the barrier area,
The immense power demonstrated by this important figure had left a deep impression on her and could only be described as terrifying!
Commander Kara, theres no need for excessive courtesy.
Raising his hand slightly, Leo Ray picked up the white porcin cup next to him, first taking a sip of the fragrant tea that Orion Wolfe had just prepared.
Then he said, I heard you once served under Holy Light General Joshua. How much do you know about this Kingdom General?
Milord, when General Joshua first became a battalionmander, I was already under hermand.
On the other side, Kara lowered her head again, responding unreservedly: Over the years,
We have fought together from the Unfallen Fortress in the extreme north of Coldme Kingdom to the Rainforest Fortress in the extreme south, and to the border battlefield with Saint Night Kingdom in the east, experiencing nearly a hundred battles.
It was not until General Joshua returned to the Royal Capital and was appointed Kingdom General that we were forced to part ways.
Because the high and mighty nobles in the Royal Capital obviously did not want too many close followers around a Kingdom General, as that would undoubtedly threaten their power.
I see. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray gently put down the teacup in his hand and continued to listen.
Milord, since General Joshua was originally amoner and only adopted by a counts family,
Sheter gained a noble title through outstanding military achievements, belonging to the new nobility of Coldme.
Therefore, she has never been well-received by other Kingdom Generals with legitimate noble bloodlines, as well as the nobles of the Royal Capital.
Naturally, trust is even more impossible, and this is also the main reason why I was forced to leave the Royal Capital.
Kara still maintained her bowing posture as she continued.
I understand. As Leo Ray gazed at the steaming teacup beside him, he revealed a thoughtful expression.
ording to the information currently held by them,
The background of Holy Light General Joshua undoubtedly had simrities with Giant Axe General Burt from before, both being unwee in the Royal Capital.
No wonder these two would eventually choose to follow the weakest Princess Ariel.
Pondering this, Leo Ray hesitated for a moment before asking, Commander Kara, what else do you know about Holy Light General Joshua?
Milord, as far as I know, General Joshua has an enemy in Coldme Kingdom, but due to various reasons, General Joshua has been unable to kill this enemy personally.
On the other side, Karas dignified face was filled with solemnity as she continued to respond.
Oh? Theres such a thing? Hearing this, a curious expression appeared on Leo Rays face, signaling for Kara to continue.
Milord, this matter has to start with General Joshuas background.
At this time, Kara took a deep breath and said, As I just mentioned,
General Joshua was initially an orphan who grew up in a monastery in Redarrow City.
Later, she was fortunate to be adopted by the childless Redarrow City Lords family, bing an adopted daughter of the counts family and receiving the familys full support.
However, although the City Lord of Redarrow was a noble family of counts in Coldme Kingdom,
The family had long fallen into decline, and coupled with the barrennd of Redarrow City being just an obscure fishing town.
Therefore, in terms of wealth and strength, it was undoubtedly inferiorpared to other nobles territories.
However, General Joshuas own cultivation talent was outstanding, making the name of Redarrow City well-known at the time.
So General Joshua came from Redarrow City? Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but fall into contemtion.
He had learned some information about Redarrow City before.
This town was located southeast of Maron City, directly south of the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, and was a small town built beside a river.
And the river next to the small town was the downstream of the turbulent river between their territory in the forest and Cyan Town.
So, the distance from their territory was not very far.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this,
Kara, on the other side, continued with a mncholy look: However, even such a simple small town was coveted by others with ulterior motives,
Bringing disaster upon the residents of Redarrow City and the adoptive family of General Joshua.
Commander Kara, are you referring to the bandit raid that took ce five years ago?
After some thought, Leo Ray suddenly looked enlightened,
Muttering to himself, I remember hearing Xenia ckwood from Maron City mention,
That five years ago, Redarrow City, about three days carriage ride away from Maron City, had suffered arge-scale bandit raid,
Resulting in the annihtion of the defending forces, including the City Lords family, before the Coldme royal family reassigned the town to be under the jurisdiction of other nobles.
Chapter 483 - 366: Orange-White’s Past_2
Chapter 483: Chapter 366: Orange-Whites Past_2
As for the specific situation at that time, Xenia ckwood was not clear, after all, there was an ancient battlefield surrounded by mountains between the two cities, and there was almost nomunication between them.
However, the incident five years ago did cause a sensation in the surrounding area.
My Lord, actually, that incident five years ago was not done by mountain bandits but by a group of professional soldiers, said Kara as she took a deep breath and continued, At the time, after learning the news.
Upon receiving the news, General Joshua, who was still the captain at the time, immediately took a few of his trusted men and returned to investigate Redarrow City.
Initially, after interviewing the residents of the town, they found out that the sudden attackers were indeed dressed as ordinary mountain bandits.
However, after breaking through the city gate, they directly attacked the City Lord Mansion, with a very clear target. This immediately aroused our suspicion.
After all,pared to the heavily guarded City Lord Mansion, the local wealthy merchantsbined wealth was no small sum.
But until the menacing bandits left with their loot, they didnt approach any other houses.
I see. Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully and said, It seems that the so-called robbery was just an illusion.
Your Lordship is absolutely right. Kara sighed lightly and continued, After deducing that something was fishy, we were suspicious, but we had no solid evidence.
In the end, it was not until we found a surviving wounded soldier in a residents house by ident.
ording to the terrified wounded soldier, the mountain bandits not only had strong strength and ruthless means, but also had a tight organization andpletemand system, clearly not ordinary bandits.
Whats more crucial is that during the battle, the wounded soldier also recognized several of the so-called masked bandits, who were actually elite soldiers from Pinehaven City, the neighboring city!
Pinehaven City? Upon hearing this, Leo Ray showed a thoughtful expression.
He had also heard about Pinehaven City from Xenia ckwood.
This medium-sized city is located south of Redarrow town, very close to the border between Coldme and Saint Night.
In the surrounding area, its considered an extremely powerful and dominant force.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray stroked his chin, pondering thoughtfully, So, those so-called mountain bandits were actually disguised elite soldiers from Pinehaven City?
Answering Your Lordship, yes, it is. Kara nodded with furrowed brows and continued, After that, through a series of investigations, we found out that half a month before the attack, Marquis Rocky, the lord of Pinehaven City, had discussed with General Joshuas adoptive father, the Lord of Redarrow City, about breeding Water Elemental Demon magic pearl monsters in the waters of Redarrow City.
The magic bead produced in this Water Elemental Demon Beasts body is an essential material for refining several Tier 1 Magic Medicines and is quite valuable.
However, this kind of Demon Beast, after reaching adulthood, is at a Tier 1 Peak level that ordinary people simply cannot match, and it is extremely ferocious and brutal.
In history, there have been many instances of people suffering the consequences of breeding these ferocious Beast]
Therefore, General Joshuas adoptive father naturally didnt want such a ferocious Demon Beast to appear in his city.
Compared to the vast wealth, General Joshuas adoptive father obviously cared more about the safety of the citys residents.
Having said this, Kara sighed lightly again and continued, But it was because of this that the declining Earls family suffered a catastrophe.
So it seems that after getting rid of General Joshuas adoptive father, the one who took over Redarrow City must have been someone rted to Marquis Rocky, or Marquis Rocky himself, right?
Moreover, there must be arge number of dangerous magic pearl monsters bred in Redarrow City now. Sitting opposite on the throne, Leo Ray nodded slightly and mused.My Lord is right.
On the other side, Carlo still nodded with a gloomy face and said, At present, the jurisdiction of this city has indeed fallen into the hands of Marquis Rockys family.
After Redarrow Town startedrge-scale breeding of Magic Pearl Monsters, it became Marquis Rockys cash cow.
Although many residents of Redarrow Town die each year as a result, all of this has only be conversations and jokes for these big shots to upy themselves with at meals.
In summary, after a series of investigations, General Joshua and a few of our trusted followers finally confirmed that Marquis Rocky is behind all this.
This hypocrite, who appears virtuous on the surface, not onlypletely ughtered Joshuas foster parents and their family but also burned the monastery where he grew up, fighting alongside the City Lords Mansion until thest moment. The methods employed were extremely vicious.
It caused Joshua, who had already lost his home once before, to lose it again for the second time.
I understand. Leo Ray thought about it for a moment and said, If my guess is correct, the reason Joshua hasnt taken revenge on this enemy yet must be due to the huge force backing him up, right?
My Lord is correct again. Carlo nodded slightly and continued, The person standing behind Marquis Rocky is none other than the Crown Prince of the Coldme Royal Family!
Furthermore, his own strength is at the level of Tier 4 Senior Powerhouses, almost equal to General Joshua, with numerous experts at his side.
As a result, although Joshua clearly knows that his enemy is right in front of him, he still cant do anything about it and can only grit his teeth and hide everything deep within his heart.
Whats even more infuriating is that this guy admitted to his actions in public under Joshuas repeated questioning and then left without any worries,ughing heartily
At this point, Carlo clenched his fists tightly, and his face was full of anger.
So thats how it is. Upon hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows and then waved his hand, Alright, thats enough. Captain Carlo, go back and rest early.
Yes, my Lord. Carlo bowed to Leo Ray and Adams in session, and then left with a clenched fist.
A few momentster, as the hall was once again filled only with their own subordinates, Leo Ray, who had already made up his mind, first finished the tea in his cup, then had Adams call the three Floating Moon n elders over.
After some coercion and intimidation, Leo Ray looked at the three frightened elders as they left.
Under Adamss guidance, Leo Ray and his party ate some seafood dishes with Mystara Citys unique characteristics in the castles banquet hall and casually strolled around this charming city.
Finally, they returned to the hall they were in earlier.
During this process, Leo Ray also gave Orion Wolfe and Amelia a few hours off to be with their families since they hadnt been home for a long time.
City Master Adams, Im entrusting everything in Mystara City to you. If theres anything, contact me with Mind Talk in time.
At this moment, Leo Ray nodded slightly at the respectful Adams and signaled the other subordinates to gather around him.
Yes, my Lord, please rest assured! Adams immediately bowed his body and his face was full of respect.
Alright, lets leave. Leo Ray moved his thoughts, and a cold Returning Crystal suddenly appeared in his palm.
Without any hesitation, he immediately crushed the blue crystal stone he had just taken out.
The next second, the strange energy within the crystal burst out, instantly enveloping Leo Ray and his party.
As time went by, under Adamss watchful gaze, the blue light curtain surrounding Leo Ray and his party became thicker and thicker.
Eventually, a sh of white lightter, Adamss people disappearedpletely from the hall.
Chapter 484 - 367: The Completion of the Third Miracle Building_1
Chapter 484: Chapter 367: The Completion of the Third Miracle Building_1
Just like that, when the surroundings became clear again for Leo Ray, they found themselves back in the familiar territory.
At this time, the deep blue night sky, twinkling stars, the sky hadpletely darkened.
However, within the territory, the lights were still shining brightly, with peopleing and going everywhere.
It seemed that the construction of city gates, crions, and canteens were still underway in an orderly manner.
Under the moonlit night, a gentle breeze brushed past.
Standing at the entrance of the grand Lords Mansion, Leo Ray first took a deep breath of the fresh air mixed with a faint smell of cement.
Then, he motioned to his subordinates beside him to disperse on the spot while showing a hint of joy on his face.
This trip to Mystara City had been quite fruitful.
First of all, while passing through Pine Sound Range, they not only made friends with lords like Quinn Serena, Gabriel Jordan, and M from Lane No.9 Club.
They also identally discovered an ancient three-masted giant ship from the nk Era 3000 years ago deep in an underground cave.
And through the record illusions on the ship.
For the first time, they saw a Chosen Son of God who had disappeared for 3000 years, as well as thest moments of the ship before encountering a tsunami.
ording to the series of clues on the ship and the illusions, I finally deduced.
That 3000 years ago, after encountering that sudden tsunami.
In order to avoid the catastrophe, someone on the ship used a powerful teleportation magic, or a corresponding advanced magic scroll.
Transporting the entire ship to that underground cave.
Finally, the people on the ship, due to some emergency, had to choose to abandon it and leave, causing the situation we saw on the ship.
Although there are still many doubts in this conjecture, it is currently the most reasonable exnation.
However, I always feel that there is more to this than meets the eye.
Maybe, there will be more discoveries in the future since I have already moved the entire captains cabin, as well as the empty magic map, into the Space Bracelet.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly, waved his hand, and redeployed the Earth Guardians, except for the nine backups, into the territory.
Then, he strode directly into the Lords Mansion.
Upon entering the spacious and bright hall of the Mansion, Leo Ray did not linger but went straight upstairs to the third-floor Lords Office.
Next, standing in front of the storage wooden box in the territory, Leo Ray began to organize the gains from this time aboard the Ancient Ship.
I must say, just being on the Ancient Ship alone gained quite a few good things.
After transferring the sundries from the captains cabin from the Space Bracelet to the storage wooden box, Leo Ray started counting again: Besides these sundries.
We also acquired 60 Tier 2 Fire Magic Cannons that need repairing.
These can be thrown into the warehouse in the territoryter, and Scarlett can just take them. The repair work must start as soon as possible, and then upgrade.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray continued to check: In addition, there are two Barrier Crystals sealed with defensive barriers. From the illusions on the ship, one can see that.
This so-called Fortress Wall defensive barrier is quite effective. One can be ced in the territory, and the other one can be carried with me.
Lemme ask Gideon ck and Scarlett to study itter.
See if the defensive barrier ced in the territory can be directly supplied with some energy by the Guardian Defense Mechanism and Light Healing House.
By the way, the Eye of Insight built by Daisy Sasha and her subordinates from the Mage Squad is alsocking this step, so letsplete it together.
In this way, the defensive and detection type barriers in the territory will beplete.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray continued to check: Finally, the Illusion Crystal and the Demon Energy Luminous Crystal.
Theres no need to say anything about the Illusion Crystal. ording to Gideon ck, it has the effect of sensing other illusions when carried, and it is extremely practical.
As for the Demon Energy Luminous Crystals, which are almostpletely depleted of energy, just put them all into the Guardian Defense Mechanism to rechargeter.
With the Mage Squad temporarily stationed in Cyan Town, the responsibility of charging fell on the Half-elf Squad, and informing Belinda Wrightter would suffice.
In this way, after organizing the items obtained from the Ancient Ship, Leo Ray first stretched, and then his face showed a hint of excitement again.
Next, it was natural to check the harvest from the barrier area of the Winged People Tribe in Mystara City!
Originally, I only nned to go to Mystara City to inquire about the details of Holy Light General Joshua.
Unexpectedly, I also identally discovered a barrier area of the Winged People Tribe that was destroyed in the nk Era 3000 years ago.
At this time, Leo Rays mind moved, and an ancient and yellowed drawing emitting a simple atmosphere appeared in his palm: In the barrier area.
The first thing found was this Miracle Building Blueprint called Illusory Vision Tower.
Carefully cing the shimmering drawing on the office desk, Leo Ray continued to ponder: Secondly.
There is a Tier 5 Leather Armor that can change color, two Tier 5 Weapons suitable for Serena and Ste, and other equipment.
Of course, I also took some petrified equipment that was also brought back with me.
Chapter 485 - 367: The Completion of the Third Miracle Building_2
Chapter 485: Chapter 367: The Completion of the Third Miracle Building_2
Thinking of this, Leo Ray first put the petrified batch of equipment temporarily into the storage wooden box.
Then he fell into contemtion, Besides, I have obtained a not insignificant amount of rare resources like Wind Spirit Stones and Obsidian.
These are enough to upgrade the Guardian Defense Mechanism in the territory to another level and build a new Miracle Building C the Illusory Vision Tower!
Oh, and this mysterious object.
Excitedly rubbing his hands, Leo Rays mind moved, and the Wind and Cloud Wings appeared in his palm, resembling a finely crafted piece of art.
Gazing at the gleaming metal ornament that exuded a sense of mystery, Leo Ray yed with it.
As he contemted inwardly, This thing should be the treasure of the Winged Race in the Barrier Area.
Like the Eternal Night Magic Box, its purpose is unclear at this stage.
However, looking at the attribute column, it is very likely that there is some potential connection between the two.
But with the clues avable now, its clear that this cannot be confirmed yet, so lets leave it forter.
Leo Ray slightly pursed his lips and put the Wind and Cloud Wings back into his Space Bracelet.
After a moment of hesitation, Leo Ray contacted Quinn Serena in Pine Sound Range through a private message and traded the agreed 500 sets of Tier 1 Light Armor and Tier 1 Longswords.
With these equipment, and the elimination of the Mountain and Sea Alliance, I suppose the overall strength of the Lane No.9 Club will also rise to a new level.
Ill ask Quinn Serena about the situation there in a few days. With this lords team in Pine Sound Range and the Mystara City outside Pine Sound Range,
Although the distance between the two is far from the territory, it would be able to support each other in the future, maybe.
Now that we have sessfully subdued Adams, the City Lords father of Orion Wolfe,
Mystara City has undoubtedly be the fourth city under our control after Cyan Town, Mn Town, and Ma Town!
Thinking of this, in addition to excitement, a look of anticipation appeared on Leo Rays face.
The next task is undoubtedly building the third Miracle Building in the territory!
At this moment, Leo Ray grabbed the Miracle Building Blueprint and took out the necessary ordinary resources from the storage wooden box.
He then pushed the door open and headed towards the outside of the Lords Mansion.
Going straight toItemto>,structionBlueprintLeo Ray walked towards the two Miracle Buildings in the northern region of the territory.
Gazing at the splendid Light Healing House, which resembled a temple, emitting a pale golden light,
As well as the octagonal pir-shaped Guardian Defense Mechanism, which emitted a faint blue light, Leo Ray pondered for a moment.
He then ced the third Miracle Building between the two Miracle Buildings and the Lords Mansion in the northern region, leaving ample space.
This way, even if these Miracle Buildings were to expand and upgradeter, they wouldnt interfere with one another.
The territorys third Miracle Building is finally about to bepleted. I wonder what its effects will be?
Excitedly rubbing his hands, Leo Ray, holding the ancient construction blueprint,
Waved his hand, and arge pile of construction resources stacked like a mountain appeared in front of him in the designated open space.
Next, without any hesitation, Leo Ray began building.
At the next moment, a familiar prompt sound rang in his ears.
[You consumed Stone x50000, Wood x20000, Wind Spirit Stone x5000, Blue Moonstone x500]
[Illusory Vision Tower Lv1 is under construction, please wait]
As the voice prompt sounded, a dazzling light curtain rose up from the ground.
Like a giant light column, it illuminated every corner of the entire territory.
And from the outside of the light curtain, it was clear that
Unlike the Guardian Defense Mechanism and the Light Healing House, the Illusory Vision Towers structure was significantly taller and thinner.
At the same time, this sudden burst of brilliant light immediately attracted the attention of the bustling subordinates around.
For a moment, exmations of awe and admiration echoed throughout the territory.
Undoubtedly, this scene full of miraculous splendor was not something that could be seen easily.
And they, without a doubt, were witnessing the unfolding of a miracle!
Realizing this, the subordinates cast their gazes upon the calm figure of Leo Ray, with admiration written all over their faces.
It had to be said that the shock their Lord had brought them was simply too great.Or, to be able to work in such an extraordinary territory was clearly a blessing for them all!
It seems Ill have to wait a little longer.
On the other side, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow as he listened to the continuous construction sounds and didnt wait around.
Instead, he took more strides and reached the Guardian Defense Mechanism.
Since the resources needed to upgrade the Guardian Defense Mechanism are sufficient, why not kill two birds with one stone?
With that thought, Leo Ray waved his hand again, stacking arge amount of resources into several small mountains and pressed the upgrade button.
Then, the notification sound entered Leo Rays ears again.
[You have consumed Stone x150000, Iron Ore x120000, Obsidian x6000, Dark Magic Crystal x200]
[Guardian Defense Mechanism Lv4 upgrading, please wait]
The next moment, a dazzling, colorful light curtain rose, immediately covering the Guardian Defense Mechanism.
At this moment, under the deep blue night sky, the colorful glow of the two miracle buildings, one tall and one short,plemented each other.
People marveled at the sight and couldnt help feeling exalted.
Other subordinates in the territory saw this scene, with astonished faces and cheers of excitement.
Just like that, apanied by the continuous construction sounds, after some time had passed.
The light curtain and automatic construction sound surrounding the Guardian Defense Mechanism began to weaken.
In just a moment, a familiar sound rang out again.
[Congrattions, your Guardian Defense Mechanism has been upgraded to Lv: 5!]
Hearing this, Leo Ray observed the dazzling, colorful light curtain transforming into faint specks of light, eventually dissipating into the vast night sky.
After the upgrade, the Guardian Defense Mechanism was noticeablyrger than before.
On the surface, the embedded peculiar metal patterns became brighter and deeper, and the newly added ck crystal patterns became more apparent.
Under the reflection of the twin moonlight, it cast clear, deep blue cold light.
Moreover, in addition to the previously metal-structured lower part.
Half of the wall had also changed from a stone structure into an all-metal structure, looking much sturdier.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray immediately opened the attribute column of the building.
[Guardian Defense Mechanism Lv: 5]
[Owner: Leo Ray (ID: 0013076067)]
[Earth Guardians Quantity: 24/24]
[Sky Guardian Quantity: 8/8]
[Building Special Effect One: Guardian Charging Lv5 (Charging Earth (Sky) Guardians can shorten charging time moderately)]
[Building Special Effect Two: Guardian Creation Lv5 (If Earth (Sky) Guardians are destroyed, new Earth (Sky) Guardians can be created (CD: 8h))]
[Building Special Effect Three: Guardian Optimization Lv5 (Energy consumption reduced by 20% when Earth (Sky) Guardians are in action)]
[Upgrade Materials Needed: Stone x200000, Iron Ore x150000, Obsidian x12000, Dark Magic Crystal x800]
The number of Earth Guardians and Sky Guardians has not changed, so it seems that their individual strengths must have increased, right?
Upon closing the buildings attribute column, with a thought, nine Earth Guardians and two Sky Guardians from his Space Bracelet appeared before Leo Ray.
In an instant, a deep blue light shone from beneath the feet of these advanced magic puppets, quickly flickering from bottom to top.
The next moment, a much stronger momentum than before erupted from the puppets.
Afterward, Leo Ray opened the attribute column of these guardians, discovering that their strengths had indeed risen from Tier 3 One-Star to Tier 3 three-star.
Not bad, not bad. Although each individuals strength has only increased by two stars, and the overall improvement is not too high.
However, when more than 30 of them are put together, its quite impressive.
Nodding in satisfaction, as Leo Ray thought about it.
On the other side, as the construction sounds and cutting noises gradually faded, the colorful light curtain eventually disappeared.
The third miracle building in the territory was now fully revealed to Leo Ray and all his subordinates.
Chapter 486 - 368: Illusionary Vision Tower_1
Chapter 486: Chapter 368: Illusionary Vision Tower_1
Feeling a mix of joy and curiosity.
When Leo Ray hurried to the third Miracle Building in his territory, the Illusory Vision Tower, a look of amazement appeared on his face.
Looking up, this tower-shaped building resembled a lighthouse on the coast, with a height of about five stories, making it the tallest building in the territory.
Moreover, on the smooth stone surface, there were pale yellow odd metal patterns all over it, emitting a faint glow.
This was the same color as the Wind Spirit Stone, one of the resources required for its construction.
These patterns are simr to those on the Guardian Defense Mechanism and the Light Healing House, both of which serve to automatically absorb energy.
However, the details are different.
The unknown races Miracle Building, the Guardian Defense Mechanism, has more right-angle structures in its magic patterns.
As for the Light Elf Races Light Healing House, its magic patterns are smoother and without much angr structure.
Whereas this Illusory Vision Tower from the Winged Race has noticeably more acute-angle structures.
With his gaze shifting upward, Leo Ray looked at the top of the tower.
At the top of the tower, there was a fully enclosed lookout.
The ss on it was translucent and pale blue, reflecting a faint, mysterious blue under the moonlight.
Interesting. Looking at the color of the ss, it should be made of Blue Moonstone, right?
Raising an eyebrow, Leo Rays gaze shifted to therge entrance at the base of the tower and continued observing.
It was a heavy stone door, with an eye symbol, and no other unique features.
As Leo Ray was preparing to enter, Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett, as well as other subordinates, immediately gathered around, each wearing an astonished and curious expression on their faces.
It was well known that an ordinary kingdom having a single Miracle Building, a symbol of the highest crystallization of wisdom, was already considered to have a profound foundation.
Yet, in their Lords territory, there were three such magnificent sights in session, which could only be described as a miracle within miracles!
Lets alle in and take a look.
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled faintly, looking at everyones expectant faces, and went straight to the entrance of the Illusory Vision Tower.
The next moment, as if sensing something, the stone door slowly opened, revealing the interior space of this new Miracle Building to everyone.
As soon as he stepped into the tower, Leo Ray noticed a constantly rotating pale gray magic array and a staircase next to it.
The walls all around were still covered with pale yellow magic patterns.
At a nce, the pale gray and pale yellow light intertwined, creating an eerie atmosphere.
The teleportation magic array of the Winged Race, huh?
Looking at the constantly rotating gray hexagram array on the ground, Leo Ray nodded slightly, signaling to the subordinates behind him to take the stairs, while he stepped into the array.
The next second, apanied by a feeling of weightlessness, Leo Ray discovered that he had arrived in a new room when his vision became clear again.
Surrounded by pale blue semi-transparent ss, the center of the room held a stone throne circled by several colored magic arrays floating in mid-air.
There was a staircase at one corner of the room leading downward.
After a full circle in the room, Leo Ray went directly to the window and found that this was the top of the Illusory Vision Tower he had just seen.
Looking out through the windows, he saw that everything in the territory was covered in a faint, light blue.
However, it was extremely clear, like looking through binocrs, making people unconsciously marvel a fascinating feeling of seeing all beneath them.
Interesting In that case, the most important facility here is the stone throne surrounded by magic arrays, right?
At this moment, Leo Ray returned to the center of the room, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Meanwhile, Bianca and Scarlett, who had taken the stairs, had already arrived at the top of the Illusory Vision Tower, hopping excitedly.
Through their descriptions, Leo Ray learned that the staircase at the base went directly to the top, with nothing special about it other than the spiral staircase.
It seemed that there were two ways to go up: the teleportation array and the regr staircase.
Lord, this throne looks so special!
Just arriving at the top floor, Scarlett blinked her big eyes and eximed excitedly, I wonder what will happen if I sit on it?
As she spoke, she looked at Leo Ray with an expression that said, I want to try it.
Go ahead. Seeing this, Leo Ray helplessly grumbled and nodded slightly.
Thank you, Lord! Next, as Scarlett excitedly sat on the throne, the surrounding floating magic arrays elerated their rotation, as if switching on some mechanism.
At the same time, a semi-transparent magic shield enveloped Scarlett along with the throne.
At this moment, she closed her eyes tightly, apparently entering a meditative state simr to cultivation.
Taking advantage of this gap, Leo Ray opened the Attribute Column of this new Miracle Building.
[Illusory Vision Tower Lv: 1]
[Owner: Leo Ray (ID: 0013076067)]
[Building Effect 1: Mirage Illusion Lv1 (Create an illusion centered on this building, recing everything within a radius of 500 meters with simr surroundings.

[Upgrade Materials Required: Stone x100,000, Wood x50,000, Wind Spirit Stone x10,000, Blue Moonstone x1,000]
[Tip: Increasing the building level can further increase the effective range of the illusion, concealment effect, range of thunder strike, and power of the thunder strike.]
Wow, turns out its a Miracle Building that can provide both stealth and offensive effects!
Seeing this, Leo Rays face immediately showed a look of joy, and he began to ponder.
Chapter 487 - 369: New Functions of the Illusionary Vision Tower_1
Chapter 487: Chapter 369: New Functions of the Illusionary Vision Tower_1
With joy, Leo Ray began to examine the contents of the attribute column of the building while deep in thought.
He murmured to himself, The first building effect is self-exnatory.
Within a radius of 500 meters from the Illusory Vision Tower, all buildings
will be automatically reced with the surrounding tree scenes, providing a visual effect to hide the territory and confuse enemies.
This visual concealment effect can be effective even against Tier 5 Powerhouses.
Furthermore, it prevents Powerhouses below Tier 3 from sensing any presence within the territory.
In this way, the concealment of the territory will undoubtedly be enhanced to an epic level!
Keep in mind, a 500-meter radius is sufficient to cover the entire territory and part of the forest areapletely!
Thinking of this, a touch of joy appeared on Leo Rays face.
He began to ponder again, Although once someone enters the effective range of the Illusion Realm, the illusion effect will automatically be removed, and everything returns to normal.
However, our side can also prepare within this range, and when the enemy discovers the existence of the territory, directly deliver a crushing blow to them.
Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Rays gaze fell on the second building effect, As for this Thunder Judgment, its even more straightforward.
Simply put, its like having a maic storm tower with a defensive function.
Once the enemy enters the radius of 500 meters and discovers the existence of the territory,
our ground forces can coordinate with the miraculous buildings thunder attack function to strike the enemy immediately.
It seems that the operating chair mentioned above is where this girl sits.
With that thought, Leo Ray shifted his gaze to the throne in the middle of the room, where Scarlett was sitting.
At this moment, the magic shield surrounding the operating chair began to fade and eventually disappearedpletely.
Scarlett gradually opened her star-like eyes, stood up excitedly from the seat, and approached Leo, saying, Lord, this chair is really amazing.
Its like a heavenly eye that can overlook the entire territory.
And I discovered three functions.
First, it can switch a hidden-type Illusion Realm on and off.
Second, it can make minor adjustments to the effective range of the Illusion Realm within a radius of 500 meters.
Third, it canunch an attack-type magic!
Are the three functions exactly as described in the attribute column?
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
Then, out of curiosity, he sat on the chair himself.
After settling in the throne, Leo Ray instantly entered a wonderful state of meditation.
In this magical state, it was as if he activated the God mode of a game.
Everything within a 500-meter radius of the Illusory Vision Tower was instantly within his control.
At this moment, whether it was Half-Elf Girl Belinda White, who was crouching on the City Wall and carefully applying cement,
or White-haired Loge, who was working with several soldiers to lift a huge rock near the City Gate, Leo Ray could see everything clearly.
He could even effortlessly perceive a falling leaf on arge tree outside the territory.
At this time, Leo Ray continued to observe, amazed.
After a while, he discovered that this effect could only detect people and objects outside the buildings, not deep inside the buildings.
However, the three functions Scarlett had just mentioned, including the specific methods of operation, had already been imprinted clearly in Leo Rays mind without realization.
This self-taught feeling was like learning a new Skill Scroll.
Eventually, after some adjustments,
Leo Ray set the coverage of the Illusion Realm to not far beyond the City Wall moat.
It was smaller than the maximum radius of 500 meters, leaving a warning zone in between.
In this way, even if the enemy approached the warning zone, they would not discover the location of the territory.
On the other hand, our side can detect the enemy through the operating chair.
It seems that someone must be on duty for this operating chair 24 hours a day. After summoning two more Tier 3 Powerhouse squads,
there are already quite a few Tier 3 Powerhouses in the territory who are neither main-strength subordinates normander subordinates.
Let them be responsible for this task.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray began to test thest thunder attack function.
With a move of his mind, he directly aimed at a thick-looking tree at the edge of the 500-meter radius.
The next second, a deep-throated thunder echoed.
Under the God-mode perspective of the Illusory Vision Tower, Leo Ray saw the tree turn into a pile of charred remains,pletely disappearing from the screen.
Not bad, the power is eptable.
After witnessing this, Leo Ray immediately exited the God mode of the Illusory Vision Tower and returned to reality.
On the other side, Scarlett immediately approached and said, Lord, the attack just now, judging from the energy fluctuations, was extremely powerful!
In an unguarded state, even a Tier 3 Powerhouse would likely be killed in one blow!
Very good. Raising an eyebrow slightly, Leo Ray stood up from the operating chair while stretching his body.
He then turned to the Old Steward, who was standing respectfully nearby, and said, Warren Dexter, you will be in charge of this operating chair.
Chapter 488 - 369: New Functions of the Illusionary Vision Tower_2
Chapter 488: Chapter 369: New Functions of the Illusionary Vision Tower_2
Arrange Rudy, the Tier 3 female servants, and the Pterosaur Knight Squad to take turns on duty, ensuring that someone is always here 24 hours a day.
Once any anomalies are detected, be sure to report them to me through mind talk immediately.
Yes, my Lord. Hearing this, the old steward bowed slightly and then immediately began to take action.
After that, Leo Ray left the Illusory Vision Tower.
First, he instructed Gideon ck and Scarlett to repair the magic cannons and connect the Fortress Wall and Eye of Insight.
Then he summoned Belinda Wright to arrange for the charging of the Demon Energy Luminous Crystals.
During this process, the 60 magic cannons waiting for repair and 500 Demon Energy Luminous Crystals were ced in their designated locations ording to Leo Rays previous n.
As for the Barrier Crystal that seals the Fortress Wall, Leo Ray handed it over to Gideon ck for research.
When all this waspleted, Leo Ray gathered all his subordinates in the territory through mind talk to practice going in and out of the Illusion Realm several times.
At this moment, whether the territory standing in the forest just a second ago had beenpletely hidden and vanished
or the traces of the territory suddenly appeared in an environment that was a forest the next second,
all these things couldnt help but make people marvel.
In this way, having settled all matters, Leo Ray took a step forward and returned to the front of the Illusory Vision Tower, pondering again.
At present, the resources I have are enough to upgrade the Illusory Vision Tower to level 2.
Moreover, I have already obtained the Winged Races treasure, the Wind and Cloud Wings.
It should be possible to unlock the magic lock of this miracle building, just like the Guardian Defense Mechanism, and further enhance the function of the Illusory Vision Tower.
I wonder what kind of new effects will appear after unlocking? Might as well do it together.
Thinking this, after the subordinates inside the tower had all withdrawn,
Leo Ray waved his hand,id out the resources needed for the upgrade around the tower, and directly pressed the upgrade button.
The next second, the familiar prompt sound entered Leo Rays ear.
[You have consumed Stone x100000, Wood x50000, Wind Spirit Stone x10000, Blue Moonstone x1000]
[Illusory Vision Tower Lv1 is upgrading, please wait]
After some time, when everything in front of Leo Ray returned to normal, the prompt sounded again.
[Congrattions, your Illusory Vision Tower has been upgraded to Lv: 2!]
At this moment, looking at the renovated building in front of him, Leo Ray noticed that
the upgraded Illusory Vision Tower was obviously taller than before, probably reaching a height of six floors.
Moreover, both the foundation of the tower and its surface appeared to have been reinforced to varying degrees, making it more robust and sturdy.
Of course, the shimmering light yellow patterns on the surface of the tower had also be more intricate andplex.
Now, its time to unlock the magic lock on the Illusory Vision Tower.
Seeing this, Leo Rays thoughts moved, and the art-like metal ornament, the Wind and Cloud Wings, appeared in his palm.
Next, he entered the tower, and through the teleportation array, Leo Ray arrived at the top of the tower again.
Soon after, apanied by the increasingly bright glow of the Wind and Cloud Wings in Leo Rays hand,
a familiar prompt quickly entered his ear, just like the situation with the Guardian Defense Mechanism before.
[Congrattions! The hidden function of your miracle building Illusory Vision Tower has been activated!]
[Congrattions! Your miracle building Illusory Vision Tower has unlocked a new building special effect Sky-thunder Net!]
Sky-thunder Net?
After hearing the prompt, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and muttered to himself, Judging from the name,
it should be a defensive attack magic, simr to Thunder Judgment, right?
As Leo Ray thought this,
a rumbling sound abruptly echoed.In the blink of an eye, next to the previously operated chair.
Another identical operating chair rose from the ground, also being enveloped by several colorful magic arrays.
It seems that this new building effect is released by this new operating chair.
This is quite user-friendly, after all, its a bit too busy for one person to control two defense measures at the same time.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray reopened the attribute column of this miracle building.
[Illusory Vision Tower Lv: 2]
[Owner: Leo Ray ID: 0013076067]
[Building Effect One: Mirage Illusion lv2 Creates an illusion centered on this building, recing all objects within a radius of 550 meters with surrounding simr things]
[Building Effect Two: Thunder Judgment lv2 Operated by the first operating chair.
Users can attack any individual within a radius of 550 meters of this building with thunder and paralyze it (CD: 55s)]
[Building Effect Three: Sky-thunder Net lv2 Operated by the second operating chair.
A 10m x 10m electrical can be set up in any airspace within a radius of 550 meters of this building.
Causes continuous damage to the target, attaches paralysis effect, andsts for 10m (CD: 5m)]
[Materials needed for upgrade: Stone x150000, Wind Spirit Stone x20000, Blue Moonstone x2000]
Wow, it really is a defensive type of attack magic. The previous Thunder Judgment mainly targeted the ground, while this one is for air defense.
Looking at the introduction of the new building effect, Leo Ray stroked his chin with excitement and couldnt help but show a contemtive expression.
At present,pared to the ground,
there is indeed a significant weakness in the airspace within the territory, as only a limited number of Sky Guardians and a few Tier 3 or higher magic powerhouses can engage in directbat.
In the event of arge-scale flying demon beast or airborne knight type of soldiers, even if bows and crossbows can be used for defense, it would still be extremely passive.
This instantaneous 100 square meter lightning can undoubtedly greatly alleviate this situation, making enemies more hesitant!
Leo Ray nodded his head in satisfaction and continued to mutter to himself: I have to say, the defense measures within the territory are getting more and moreplete!
Despite his delight, a hint of solemnity appeared on Leo Rays face, continuing to think: Currently, although the location of the territory has not been exposed,
the illusion effect of this Illusory Vision Tower has further reduced this possibility.
However, as time goes on, it is still inevitable that the specific location of the territory will be detected by the enemy.
Therefore, before the territory is exposed, I must prepareprehensive defense measures and turn the territory into an impregnable fortress!
With that thought, Leo Ray took a deep breath and began to walk out of the tower.
This time, he didnt choose the teleportation array but went straight into the stairwell.
Along the spiral staircase inside the tower, it didnt take long for Leo Ray to return to the vast night sky outside.
Next, he went straight back to the Lords Mansions hall.
Leo Ray first got 5 Qi Condensing Pills from Joshua Bingaman, which he sessfully upgraded to 300 Qi Condensing Pills and 2 Rose Gathering Energy Pills.
Then, he gave the two newly upgraded Rose Gathering Energy Pills to Bianca White and Belinda Wright, who had both reached the Tier 3 Eight-Star level.
Once they fully refine the magic medicine, all my main subordinates will have reached the Tier 3 Peak Level.
Looking at their retreating figures, Leo Ray nodded slightly and then drank a freshly brewed cup of fragrant tea.
After putting down the teacup, Leo Ray stretchedzily and went upstairs in the Mansion.
He quickly arrived at the Lords Suite on the third floor of the Mansion, ready to rest.
After some simple washing and removing the Light Crystal Stone for lighting, Leo Rayy on thefortable bed in a big-character position.
At this moment, after the room had gonepletely dark,
faint silver-white moonlight began to spill in continuously through the gaps in the curtains beside the bed.
Forming a small irregr silvery-white light spot.
With the help of this minimal light, the sleepy Leo Ray looked at the blurry ceiling, and couldnt help but start to ponder.
Chapter 489 - 370: The Confusing Era of Blankness_1
Chapter 489: Chapter 370: The Confusing Era of nkness_1
Next, Leo Ray went over the events of the past two days in his mind.
A solemn expression involuntarily surfaced on his face.
Originally, aside from the imminent powerful opponents of the Coldme Royal Family and the mysterious organization, there was already the mysterious and unpredictable unknown catastrophe that could arrive at any time, which was enough to make them nervous.
However, after meeting Hero King Caesar or Time Traveler Senior Wesley in the Ancestral Sleeping Ground beneath Dragons Lair, the situation became even more critical.
From Wesleys description, we can learn that
After the end of the nk Age three thousand years ago, apanied by theplete disappearance of the Chosen Sons, he concluded that the gods no longer favored this world.
In addition to this, there is the eerie and strange Empty Age, in which no race has any records.
It is evident that at that time, some terrifying events must have taken ce, causing the entire world to tremble.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray, looking at the dark, blurry ceiling, continued to ponder: At present, what can be confirmed is
These terrible events, which includerge-scale wars and disasters, are the reasons why many brilliant civilizations were destroyed overnight.
At this stage, just from what I have seen with my own eyes,
There are already the Light Elf Ruins near Penelopes territory, and thepletely petrified Winged People Barrier Region today, two long-forgotten ces.
Although it is now impossible to know how strong these destroyed civilizations were at the time,
However, from the magic restrictions deep underground in the Elf Ruins, even Jasper Richardson, at his Tier 5 Nine-Star peak, could not solve them,
And the Winged People Barrier Region, which is dozens of timesrger than Jasper Richardsons fully built Half-Elf Barrier Area, it can be seen.
At that time, these two foreign civilizations were at least much stronger than the Coldme and Saint Night, the two human kingdoms I have seen now in terms of high-level powerhouses.
From the actual situation in the ruins, even such civilizations were still no match for the unknown enemy and had almost no power to fight back,
This shows how terrifying their opponents must have been.
Taking a deep breath, Leo Ray, feeling his eyelids getting heavier and heavier, again fell into thought: Just like I suspected before.
ording to the existing clues, the powerful foreign enemies who destroyed many civilizations can only be the God that Wesley mentioned.
However, this answer is in serious conflict with thepletely sealed unknown history of the nk Age.
If God really destroyed these civilizations during the nk Age, it should have used the history of the nk Age to warn future generations,
Why instead would the descendants of these civilizationspletely forget these events? Arent they afraid that the descendants will make the same mistakes again?
Or is there some other terrifying hidden truth behind all this?
Realizing this point, Leo Ray, who was already quite drowsy, became slightly more alert, feeling a chill on his back and tightening the velvet nket that covered him.
On the other hand, from Wesleys words, we can also learn that,
The uing unknown catastrophe is just a prelude, not the finale,
Furthermore, the catastrophe is bound to have some connection with the nk Age three thousand years ago,
Even our collective advent of a billion Lords is inextricably linked to all of the above.
The only clue about this catastrophe is besides the two prophecies and Wesleys words, only the insane wandering poet, Old Nick, from Viennas City remains.
Currently, he has been properly ced by Kelsey, and it is hoped that when he wakes up, some new clues will be obtained from his mouth.
All in all, what I can do now is to continuously win over talents, umte strength, and prepare for the day thates
With that thought, drowsiness surged in Leo Rays heart again, and his breathing gradually became steady.
The next day, before dawn, when the sun had not yet risen,
Leo Ray had already gotten up from the bed and started concentrating in silence, carrying out his daily cultivation routine.
After some time, when Leo Raypleted the refinement of the two Rose Gathering Energy Pills and opened his eyes again,
Both the Physical Energy Vortex and the Magic Energy Vortex in his body had already reached a new level.
Has my strength increased a bit?
After exhaling a turbid breath, Leo Ray leaped off the bed and started washing up.
In a moments work, the neatly dressed Leo Ray immediately opened his attribute column.
[Name: Leo Ray]
[ID: 0013076067]

Chapter 490 - 370: The Confusing Blank Era_2
Chapter 490: Chapter 370: The Confusing nk Era_2
Not bad at all. Aside from the two storage rings with their own functions, the rest of the equipment is all at least Tier 5.
With a satisfied nod, Leo Ray closed his attribute column and walked out of the room spiritedly.
At the same time, he began to ponder, At present, I have not yet learned the Magic Martial Arts [Sky-breaking Thunderbolt sh] from before.
Taking advantage of this early morning time, lets practice condensing magic wings and then take off.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray first went to the Lords Office at the end of the corridor.
He reverse-engineered the Exquisite Sickle he had made yesterday.
Finally, he sessfully obtained 1200 units of copper ingots.
Then, he arranged todays manufacturing sequence and began to im todays recruitment orders.
At present, I already have one Tier 4 recruitment order, and I still need one more.
So, lets continue with the previous n and save up a few to upgrade together.
With that in mind, Leo Ray imed three Tier 2 recruitment orders, just like yesterday, and temporarily put them into his Space Bracelet.
Next, following the staircase down, Leo Ray arrived at the first-floor lobby.
The old steward, Warren Dexter, led a few maids who had already started cleaning the lobby.
Good morning, my lord. Upon seeing Leo Raye out, they immediately bowed.
You all continue. Ill go out and exercise a bit. Nodding to them, Leo Ray went straight out the door.
The next second, apanied by a slightly cold and humid breeze, Leo Ray, who had just stepped outside, noticed that the two bright moons were still hanging in the deep blue sky, which remained vast and boundless.
In the territory, it was silent all around, save for the asional sounds of Earth Guardians and their subordinates patrolling.
Taking a deep breath of the fresh morning air, Leo Ray went to the open space in front of the small western gate of the territory and began practicing the condensation of magical wings.
And so, as the big sun began to rise from the horizon.
Until everything in the territory was dyed a shade of orange.
Leo Ray, who could now hover in the air for a moment, gentlynded on the ground.
The light purple magical wings behind him promptly turned into tiny particles of energy and soon disappeared.
Not bad, not bad. There has been significant progress. Taking a deep breath, Leo Ray first moved about his somewhat stiff body.
Afterward, facing the rising sun, Leo Ray noticed that the smaller Western Gate of the territory had been built up withrge chunks of stone and concrete, almost reaching the height of the adjacent fortress.
It looked thick and sturdy.
Only the gates and the top sections were still unfinished.
It seems that everything is progressing smoothly.
With a satisfied nod, Leo Ray, traversing the unfinished gate, easily jumped onto the towering city wall and continued his observations.
After walking almost a full circle on the city wall, Leo Ray discovered more.
The gaps between the circr fortresses had beenpletely filled andpacted with stones and concrete to form a towering andplete city wall.
On the spacious city wall, two-thirds of the crions and magic cannon turrets had beenpleted.
It looked almost identical to the outer city walls, exuding an air of solemnity and menace.
As for the southeastern corner of the territory, next to thepleted stone kitchen.
Five semi-elf arch-shaped stone houses, used as the dining hall, stood neatly. Next to them, there were severalrge piles of stones, clearly undergoing interior renovations.
Overall,pared to before, the construction work on the city gate, city wall, and dining hall areas had undoubtedly made tremendous progress.
Very good, I estimate that in another day or two, all these construction works will bepleted. By then, the defense capability within the territory will undoubtedly be further improved!
Thinking of this, Leo Ray, who had already returned to the ground, nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, the azure blue sky hadpletely brightened.
Within the territory, the continuous sound of slogans from the morning exercises of the subordinates was lively and energetic.
Next, Leo Ray practiced swordsmanship with Taylor for a while, and then enjoyed a sumptuous star-level breakfast together with his subordinates.
After that, following Leo Rays signal,
All themanders and main subordinates gathered again in the hall of the Lords Mansion, ready to start the days task assignment.
Everyone, todays work content within the territory is the same as yesterday.
Continuing the construction of the city walls, city gates, and canteens, each squad can perform their respective tasks.
As he spoke, Leo Ray, who was sitting on the throne, looked at themanders of each squad, as well as Warren Dexter, Rudy Blues, Dean, and others, nodding slightly.
Yes! Rest assured, Lord! Themanding officers then bowed deeply to Leo Ray with respect.
After witnessing thepletion of the third miracle building in the territoryst night,
The excitement on each persons face still lingered, and their emotions were extremely high.
Very good; it seems that we are getting closer and closer to the grand banquet after thepletion.
Smiling slightly, Leo Rays gaze shifted and focused on Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe, the two alchemists.
He then said: Your task remains the same C to refine the Tier 2 Qi Condensing Pills.
At present, materials collection for Tier 3 magic medicine is entering its final stage.
It will bepleted soon, and that will be the real test for both of you.
Yes! Rest assured, my Lord! Hearing this, both Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe stepped forward with serious expressions and bowed their fists.
Very good. Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Rays gaze fell again on Gideon ck and Scarlett.
He asked: How is the situation with the Eye of Insight that Daisy Sasha and the others have built?
And the connection of the Fortress Wall within the barrier crystal to the Miracle Buildings?
My Lord, the Eye of Insight has been connected and is automatically operating, and its coverage is almost the same as the current Illusory Vision Tower.
After testing with Illusion Cloaks and Invisibility Cloaks, it can perfectly break the disguise of the Illusion Cloaks and greatly weaken the effects of the Invisibility Cloaks.
It makes it almost impossible for enemies attempting to sneak into the territory to hide, and can send out rms to nearby personnel on duty. Gideon ck bowed gracefully and replied respectfully.
Well done. Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly.
With the double early warning mechanism of the Eye of Insight and the Illusory Vision Tower, the safety factor within the territory will undoubtedly be further strengthened!
Lord, as for the Fortress Wall inside the barrier crystal, its stillcking. In order to operate perfectly without inputting magic power,
All three Miracle Buildings must be connected, and this feat is still beyond us.
After all, these three miracle buildingse from three different races, making coordination extremely difficult.
However, we are now able to borrow some magic power from the Miracle Buildings to enhance the defensive power of the barrier when the territory is threatened.
Continuing with his bow, Gideon ck added.
I see, so the Fortress Wall is currently only semi-automatic? Its still not bad. Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.
My Lord, as for the Tier 2 Fire-type Magic Cannons, yesterday, while setting up the barrier,
I have sessfully repaired two of them, which are now ced back in the warehouse!
On the other side, Scarlett blinked her big eyes and spoke.
Very well, ording to our agreement, you can collect your honey caketer. With a smile, Leo Rays expression became serious again.
Next, it was time to discuss the specifics of going to Redarrow City.
Chapter 491 - 371: Unexpected Guests in Empty Green Town_1
Chapter 491: Chapter 371: Unexpected Guests in Empty Green Town_1
At this moment, looking at the respectfully standing subordinates below, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a contemtive expression again.
ording to the defense army battalionmander Kara from Mystara City, my next target for submission is Holy Light General Joshua, who is by Ariels side.
He was born in Redarrow City, which is about three days carriage ride from Mn Town and located between the Territory and Cyan Town, on the downstream bank of the river.
Five years ago, it was just an ordinary fishing town, run by a declining count family.
As an orphan, Joshua came from the monastery in this town and was eventually adopted by the City Lords family, receiving a formal education andying a solid foundation for hister fame in the Coldme Company.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray took the white porcin cup handed over by a maid, gazing at the steaming hot ck tea inside.
Continuing to ponder, he said, However, after Joshua came of age and joined the Coldme Royal Army, Redarrow City experienced an extremely professional bandit raid.
This led to theplete annihtion of the Redarrow City Lords Mansion and its defense army, including Joshuas adoptive parents, turning Redarrow City into and without a master overnight.
Even the monastery that had taken in many orphans, where Joshua had been as a child, did not escape the disaster and was directly engulfed in mes.
After taking a sip of the steaming tea, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown and fall into deep thought again, In the end, after a series of investigations, the culprit behind all this was found to be Marquis Rocky, the City Lord of Pinehaven City in the surrounding area.
The so-called bandits were merely the elite soldiers under hismand in disguise.
As for his purpose, it was quite simple C to annex Redarrow City and develop Magic Pearl Monster cultivation, turning Redarrow City into his own money tree.
This move also resulted in numerous casualties among the local residents of Redarrow City.
After all, the Magic Pearl Monster is an extremely ferocious and difficult to manage magical beast.
Of course, the lives of these lower-ss people were of little concern to the aloof Marquis Rocky.
Taking another sip of the steaming hot ck tea, Leo Rays frown grew tighter as he continued to ponder, ording to Karas further description, I learned that all these things were eventually admitted by Marquis Rocky himself.
However, since he had the most powerful Great Prince of the Coldme Royal Family behind him, even Joshua, who knew the whole truth, could do nothing to him and had to let his enemy wreak havoc in his hometown with impunity.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray drank more than half of the ck tea in his cup and couldnt help but raise his eyebrows slightly.
He thought to himself, Thus, the matter is undoubtedly very clear and simple.
To win over Holy Light General Joshua, I naturally have to start with Marquis Rocky.
What others fear, the Great Prince behind him, poses no major threat to me, an Otherworldly Lord currently hiding in the shadows.
However, a direct conflict with this Great Prince is just a matter of time.
After all, ording to Ariels personal maid Celeste and the Imperial Guard Vice Team Leader Gregg, this Great Prince was also involved in many attempts to assassinate Ariel, with extremely ruthless means.
Once they be aware of my existence, Im afraid Marquis Rocky, who is not far from the Territory and Cyan Town, will inevitably be their pawn and pose a considerable threat to us.
Therefore, cutting off this persons wings in advance is only a matter of advantage.
Just as Leo Ray was pondering this, his Mind Talk alert suddenly rang without warning.
Connecting, Serena rks full of energy voice came through immediately, Reporting to Lord, an emergency situation has just urred!
My subordinate Ste rk and I have just spotted a suspicious Tier 3 Pinnacle powerhouse near the Cyan Town Lords Mansion, who was captured sessfully by us.
Afterwards, we discovered that before being captured, this person had silently killed two patrolling squads of the Cyan Town Defense Army.
It seems they were looking for an opportunity to sneak into the City Lord Mansion!
He even killed two of my squads. This guy has issued himself a death warrant.
Hearing this, Leo Rays face suddenly showed a trace of sternness, and then he asked, Where is he now?
Replying to Lord, this person has been imprisoned by Ste rk and me in the secret dungeon within the City Lord Mansion.
Moreover, Linda and Rhizoma Drynariae have already strengthened the vignce around the mansion andpletely sealed off the news. Please rest assured, Lord.
Following that, Ste rks crisp and neat voice once again entered Leo Rays ear.
Youve done very well. This matter is not a trivial one. The top priority is to figure out the other partys background. Wait for my arrival in the Lords Mansion.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray drank the remaining tea in his cup.
Then he looked at the main force powerhouses such as Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett who were below and said, Prepare to set off. Lets go to Cyan Town first!
Yes, Lord! The subordinates bowed immediately, all ready to spring into action.
Chapter 492 - 371: Unexpected Guests in Empty Green Town_2
Chapter 492: Chapter 371: Unexpected Guests in Empty Green Town_2
With that, apanied by a gust of wind, they arrived.
In no time, the dusty group led by Leo Ray appeared in the conference hall of Cyan Towns Lords Mansion.
At this moment, besides Taylor, Gideon, Scarlett, Bianca, Abigail, and Amelia, six people were present.
There were also the petite and delicate Serena and Linda, as well as Mason Banks, respectfully standing at the lower end of the hall.
As for Ste, who was not present, Leo Ray learned after asking that,
The taciturn twin sister was secretly guarding a cold-blooded unexpected guest in the dungeon.
My Lord, since the news has been timely blocked, Princess Ariel and her entourage havent noticed anything unusual, Linda said, taking a step forward and bowing respectfully.
My Lord, even though Cyan Town has implemented strict entry and exit inspection measures,
But for these Tier 3 and above experts who are good at lurking,
The effect is still minimal. Therefore, I think,
Apart from the Barrier of Eye of Insight set up within the range of the Lords Mansion,
The defenses should be further strengthened at all key locations in the surrounding area,
Using abination of visible and invisible guard posts, deploying defensive forces as the first solid line of defense for the outer region.
Linda, Ill leave this to you, just do your best.
After nodding slightly, Leo Ray furrowed his brows again and asked, Did we learn anything about the identity of the intruder?
My Lord, the man was tight-lipped. He has remained silent since he was captured and tried tomit suicide many times, but I have stopped him from doing so, Linda replied, exchanging a helpless look with Serena.
My Lord, perhaps I have some methods, Gideon said, stepping forward and bowing slightly.
Gideon then gracefully pushed up the sses on the bridge of his nose and the metal skull ne on his chest reflected a harsh cold light.
Go ahead, use any means necessary as long as you can obtain some useful information.
Hearing this, Leo Ray waved his hand slightly, signaling Gideon to start immediately.
Without a doubt, as a Dark Priest adept in spirit attacks, Gideon is skilled in dealing with stubborn opponents like the infiltrator.
Yes, my Lord, rest assured. Bowing once more towards Leo Ray, Gideon left the hall under the guidance of Linda and Serena.
After the three of them had left, Leo Ray pondered for a moment,
He then asked the elderly cksmith in brocade robe, Mr. Mason Banks, how is the preparation for forging equipment going?
My Lord, all the materials for forging the Bright Silver Luminous Armor have been assembled, and I am now in the process of forging. In addition, using the resources of the Lords Mansion, I have also obtained a blueprint for a new Tier 3 weapon, the Fine Steel Horse Piercing Spear.
At this point, most of the materials have been gathered, leaving only the most criticalponent C the fine steel ingot, which I was fortunate enough to find. It is mainly produced by the Dwarf n, and although its quantity is small, it should be no problem to forge two or three spears.
Fine steel ingot? Leo Rays eyes lit up at this.
At the moment, to continue upgrading the Lords Mansion,
The most crucial resource is the Tier 3 rare resource, the fine steel ingot.
To obtain this rare resource, Leo Ray had disassembled all Tier 3 metal equipment in his possession, but to no avail.
I had intended to ask Mason Banks about the fine steel ingotster, but I didnt expect things to have progressed this far!
Realizing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and said, Mr. Mason Banks, as soon as the materials for forging the Fine Steel Horse Piercing Spear are ready, be sure to forge a few as quickly as possible.
This is one of the most important things we need to do now, and it must be given top priority.
Yes, my Lord, rest assured. Mason Banks bowed once more with a solemn face.
After a short discussion with Mason Banks,
The doors at the end of the hall reopened,
And Gideon, Linda, along with Serena and Ste, appeared before Leo Ray once more.At this moment, it was quite evident.
Gideon cks mouth still had a hint of a joyful smile, as if he had just attended a grand event.
My Lord, everything has been thoroughly investigated, he said, offering an elegant bow and then reported, This man is from Pinehaven City and is the captain of Marquis Rockys spy team.
There are a total of three main objectives.
First, to spy on the new Lord of Cyan City, which is you, my Lord.
Second, to spy on the current situation of Princess Ariel.
And third, to ascertain the defensive strength and the number of powerful individuals in Cyan Town.
I didnt expect that I would rank first in the important tasks.
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and muttered to himself, It turns out that this man is actually the enemy of Joshua, and Marquis Rockys confidant.
This is indeed a bit surprising. I havent even started to act, but this guy has alreadye to Cyan Town with malicious intent.
My Lord, Marquis Rocky is one of the Great Princes loyalpdogs, so Im afraid that this matter is also rted to the Great Prince.
Perhaps, this Great Prince is the real mastermind behind the scenes, Linda said after a brief thought.
That makes sense.
Leo Ray nodded slightly with his eyebrows furrowed and thought to himself, Originally, I thought the reach from the Royal Capital would only be extended after a while.
For now, it seems, that apart from the other two princes, I have to deal with the trouble from the Great Princes faction.
On the other side, Gideon ck hesitated for a moment, exchanging nces with Linda and others who had just returned with him.
After a moment of hesitation, he reported again, My Lord, theres one more thing. ording to this man, following Marquis Rockys orders, he could have killed you directly if you were confirmed to be an Otherworldly Lord
Gideon quickly added, However, please rest assured, my Lord, this man can no longer pose any threat to you.
Well done. They dont have the ability to kill me yet.
Leo Ray stood up from his throne and began walking towards his subordinates, saying, In any case, from the current situation, we can conclude that the reach of the Great Princes faction has already extended here at least.
Therefore, we have to be fully prepared at all times for the impending war.
At this moment, Leo Ray, who had already walked to the side of his subordinates, spoke with a solemn expression.
He firstmanded Linda, Regarding the reinforcement of Cyan Towns city defense, including the fortification of the walls and the excavation of trenches, the progress must be sped up.
In addition, the recruitment of new soldiers must be carried out simultaneously.
By yourmand, my Lord! Dont worry! Linda immediately clenched her fists and responded, Right now, Rhizoma Drynariae is supervising the reinforcement work of the city defense outside the City Lord Mansion.
I will convey all your orders to him.
Very good. Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction, walked forward, and arrived in front of Serena and Ste. He continued, Thanks to you both this time.
If you encounter such a situation again, be sure to report to me as soon as possible.
Pausing, he mentally summoned a dazzling short sword and a metallic crossbow, which appeared out of thin air.
Then he handed the items to Serena and Ste. These two weapons were the Tier 5 Wind Gods de and Wind Gods Crossbow, which were upgraded in the Winged Peoples Barrier Region.
Looking at the sisters shocked and delighted expressions, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, Keep up the good work. I entrust the safety of the City Lord Mansion to you.
By yourmand, my Lord! The clear voices of the two identical twins sounded, and they immediately knelt down on one knee, bowing their heads deeply to Leo Ray.
Alright, its time for us to take action. Leo Ray nodded slightly, turned around and said to Taylor, Gideon ck, and others, Lets go! Our target is Redarrow City!
Chapter 493 - 372: In Front of the Red Arrow City Gate_1
Chapter 493: Chapter 372: In Front of the Red Arrow City Gate_1
Two brilliant suns hung in the sky, and the azure sky was exceptionally clear.
On a rather rugged and narrow mountain path, several carriages covered in oilcloth were slowly moving forward under the escort of a group of mercenaries.
As the breeze blew, one could catch a glimpse of the goods from the asionally lifted corner of the oilcloth.
They were just ordinary spices and salt, nothing special.
At this time, due to the sheer cliff on one side of the road with no barriers, the bottom was veiled in mist and seemed bottomless.
Thus, the middle-aged merchant driving the first carriage was extremely cautious, gripping the reins of the old horse tightly and never letting his guard down.
On the other hand, the surrounding walking mercenaries appeared somewhat rxed and were whispering to each other.
Their destination was now within reach.
For a moment, the creaking of the wooden carriages, the asional gusts of wind from below the cliff, and the low conversations of the mercenaries echoed together.
This formed a rather fitting andmonly seen scene on a journey.
Captain, after this mountain, well be entering Redarrow Citys territory. Weve been out in the wilderness for quite a few days. Lets have a good drinkter!
A handsome young mercenary wearing leather armor and with a trace of youthful innocence on his face put away the sheepskin map in his hands.
Looking forward with anticipation, he spoke to the nearby exquisite and spirited female mercenary.
Neer, you little Are you trying to hit on our captain?
On the other hand, a middle-aged male mercenary with a square shield came up with a smug grin and teased: Our captains nickname is the Thorned Rose that bleeds.
Not only her personal strength has reached the admirable Tier 2 Peak Level, making her extremely powerful.
But also, she is famously immune to the effects of alcohol. You, a greenhorn, should go and hone your skills for a few more years.
Senior Its not what you think!
Hearing this, the young handsome mercenary shook his hands hurriedly and said with a flushed face: I just think the captain is very cool, and I want to be a professional mercenary like her!
Old Roke, havent you been the defender in our squad for years?
Didnt you have your sights set on our dear captain at first too? Why now that you didnt seed, youre lecturing the neers?
At this moment, a middle-aged priest in a patched-up white robe raised his eyebrows seriously and interjected.
Hey healer, dont talk nonsense. I My youngest child at home can even do errands!
Hearing this, Roke, the shield-wielding mercenary, blushed and hurriedly exined: I just want the neer to learn when to back off.
You must know, our captain is an object of affection for countless mercenaries! Having too many enemies is not a good thing, including love rivals.
Alright, now is not the time for such jokes.
At this moment, the spirited female mercenary, who hadnt spoken yet, frowned slightly and said: Did you guys forget what kind of ce our destination is?
Hearing this, Roke immediately shut his mouth while the handsome young mercenary was left with a puzzled look on his face, muttering: Captain.
Whats different about this Redarrow City from other towns?
Youve just arrived, so you dont know that Redarrow City is notoriously cruel in this neighborhood.
The priest in a patched-up white robe shook his head helplessly and began to exin: Redarrow City has only one industry.
That is to breed arge number of irritable magic pearl monsters by the riverside and trade the magic beads they produce, making huge profits.
However, because these demon beasts are extremely difficult to rear, both collecting magic beads and feeding them could result in a deadly attack at any time.
Needless to say, the results are often tragic, and such events happen almost daily in Redarrow City.
So thats how it is
Hearing that, the handsome young mercenary couldnt help swallowing his saliva and then asked: If thats the case, why dont they implement some protective measures to reduce casualties?
Or even, rece it with a new industry entirely?
Its because the ruler here doesnt allow them to.
The spirited female mercenary captain sighed softly.
She continued: As for strengthening protection measures, from the perspective of the ruler here, its too costly and high maintenance, and its not worth doing.
Compared to these exorbitant expenses, having a few insignificant civilians die every day is clearly the most appropriate business.
At the time when the conversation between the mercenaries was going on,
The caravan went through a winding road and had now driven out of the mountain path, arriving at a spacious road.
At this time, the silhouette of a town not far away began to gradually enter their view.
Upon closer inspection, the city wall of this town was extremely towering.
Resembling a magic grid, defensive measures were scattered all over it. From time to time, one could see a surge of irritable electricity sh past.
This magic grid had almost no effect on cultivators above Tier 1 Five-star; they could counteract it by mobilizing the energy within their bodies.
However, for ordinary civilians, it possessed lethal destructive power.
Thus, the purpose of these magic grids was quite self-exnatory.
Chapter 494 - 372: In Front of the Red Arrow City Gate_2
Chapter 494: Chapter 372: In Front of the Red Arrow City Gate_2
This is not a town; its a massive prison.
Looking at the neatly aligned ck armored soldiers at the city gate, the pretty mercenary couldnt help but swallow nervously.
Neer, dont say anything recklesster. These soldiers are ruthless killers.
Last time, I saw a young couple trying to escape the town and they were stabbed to death on the spot without any question.
Roke, the shield bearer, shook his head helplessly and lowered his voice, And theres more.
A young mercenary around your age got into a verbal argument with a gatekeeper, and he too was executed on the spot.
His corpse hung at the city gate for days. I can still hear the mockingughter of those soldiers.
And they dont even spare the childrensigh.
On the other side, the middle-aged Priest stopped speaking midway, sped his hands together and ced them on his chest, striking a praying posture before falling silent.
How can these soldiers be so arrogant? Doesnt anyone try to stop them? The pretty mercenary clenched his fists, fuming with anger.
Hush! The person in charge here has the backing of Marquis Rocky, who holds absolute power in this area!
Commoners would do anything to avoid such powerful figures. Who would dare to provoke them?
Roke, the middle-aged mercenary, signaled for the pretty mercenary to lower his voice even more and spoke cautiously.
If only there were another powerful person who coulde and eliminate all these despicable bastards.
Under the bright sunlight, looking at the malicious ck armored soldiers at the gate, the pretty mercenary clenched his fists and bit his lips tightly.
After listening to the pretty mercenary, Roke and the other Priest mercenary both helplessly shook their heads in silence.
Such na?ve words could only be spoken by a greenhorn like him.
At that moment, only the Female Mercenary Captain at the front had a glimmer of hope in her bright eyes.
She muttered in her heart, I wish there really was such a formidable person.
Thinking of this, the Female Mercenary Captain looked back and said, In any case, once this escort mission ends, well immediately look for our next job.
We should minimize our stay in this devouring ce.
As our Captainmands. Upon hearing this, the mercenaries behind her saluted with their fists.
And so, a few momentster.
The convoy quickly arrived at the city gate.
At this time, several other business groups were already lined up at the gate for inspection.
At a nce, the bustling crowd was filled with merchants and mercenaries delivering supplies.
Without a doubt, this notoriously infamous town wouldnt be frequented by ordinary travelers.
From the magical lightningwork standing tall atop the city wall, it was evident that the residents had no possibility of escaping.
Its a good thing youre quick-witted, you old slick. Now get in!
After some time, having received the sum of money respectfully presented by a merchant,
The ck Armored Soldier Captain inspecting them pped the merchants head crudely.
He greedily pocketed the money pouch, and with a few ck armored soldiers by his side, proceeded to the next convoy to continue his inspection.
Seeing this, Roke, the middle-aged shield-bearing mercenary, and the Priest mercenary beside him exchanged nces.
Their guarded convoy was right behind this one.
What they were transporting were regr condiments and salt.
They could only hope that no trouble would arise during the inspection.
After all, once these arrogant soldiers were in a bad mood, they would have to face the consequences.
As the two grew nervous deep in their hearts,
Turbulence suddenly broke out at the front of the merchant group.
Old man, this pretty girl with sparkling eyes has never been part of your convoy before, has she?At this moment, the ck Armored Soldier Captain pointed at a well-developed young girl standing nearby.
Then he questioned an old merchant with white hair, Who is this girl?
My Lord, she is my young daughter who is travelling with me for the first time for my business, so she may seem unfamiliar to you. I hope you understand, the old merchant bowed and replied, tactfully taking out arge money bag and respectfully handing it over.
The ck Armored Soldier Captain weighed the money bag in his hand, and a satisfied smile appeared on his fierce face as he nodded slightly.
Just when everyone thought that the storm had passed,
The ck Armored Soldier Captain first pocketed the money bag.
Then, immediately changing his face, he ordered the ck-armored soldiers behind him, Trying to bribe me with money! This proves that the girl must be a spy.
Take her away! I shall interrogate her personallyter!
At this point, a sinister smile appeared on the captains face.
He unabashedly began to look up and down the curvaceous body of the young girl.
My Lord, its a misunderstanding! Shes just my daughter! Hearing this, the old merchant hurried to protect the terrified girl and tried to exin.
You old fool, dare to obstruct me?
The ck Armored Soldier Captain spat at the old merchant and threatened, I see youre tired of living!
With that, a strong murderous intent surged from him as he drew the longsword at his waist, its sharp tip pointing directly at the old merchants frail neck.
Seeing this scene, the mercenaries protecting the old merchant all lowered their heads in silence, not daring to entertain any thoughts of resistance.
Their mission was only to escort the merchant group to their destination, not to contend with these ruthless soldiers.
The surrounding mercenaries and merchants also averted their gazes, wearing expressions of helplessness and pity.
These arrogant soldiers were not to be trifled with.
After all, they were backed by the powerful Marquis Rocky!
Seeing the obedience of the crowd, the murderous smile on the ck Armored Soldier Captains face grew even wider.
He then raised his sword without hesitation, ready to strike the old merchant.
Stop!
Just then, a resolute voice sounded, interrupting the captains action.
Upon hearing this, not only the ck Armored Soldiers but also the surrounding merchants and mercenaries looked towards the source of the voice in amazement.
It was the handsome young mercenary who had spoken.
After a moment of stunned silence,
The first to show fear were middle-aged mercenary Roke and the middle-aged Priest beside him.
As experienced mercenaries, they knew the consequences of such actions.
Not only would the neer be killed on the spot,
but even they might not be able to escape me!
My dear God, what kind of recruit did the captain bring in?
Thinking this, Roke felt like crying. He tugged on the young mercenarys sleeve,
While putting on a smile, he said to the ck Armored Captain, My Lord, this youngster was just talking to me, and he identally disrupted your official duties. I hope you can forgive him.
However, the young mercenary shook off Rokes arm, not only not backing down,
But stubbornly taking a step forward, his angry gaze fiercely thrown at the ck Armored Soldier Captain.
Well, well, I havent met such a tough nut to crack in a long time. I wonder if you can withstand my full-strength strike?
Seeing this, the ck Armored Soldier Captain sneered with rage, his longsword reflecting a cold glint as he immediately led a group of soldiers forward.
However, at this moment-
A slender figure with an extraordinary aura slowly stepped in front of the ck Armored Soldier Captain.
Chapter 495 - 373: What is That Thing_1
Chapter 495: Chapter 373: What is That Thing_1
Standing in front of the ck-armored soldiers was none other than the dashing female mercenary captain.
Taking a step forward, the female mercenary captain said indifferently to the ck-armored soldier captain, This is my person; its not your turn to teach him a lesson.
However, despite her calm appearance.
From her white knuckles gripping the hilt of the sword on her waist, one could tell that
she was obviously in an extremely tense state.
So, its Captain Donna.
Noticing this keenly, the ck-armored soldier captain, who had a simr strength at Tier 2 Peak Level, pped his hands and called for several more ck-armored soldiers to surround them.
He then looked at the mature physique of the female mercenary captain with a wicked smile, These past few months, this master has been watching you for a long time.
Since youvee to me willingly, thenter let this master give you a thorough inspection.
You dare! Eximed Donna, the female mercenary captain, her exquisite face filled with anger.
She immediately drew her longsword and an impressive aura erupted from her, beginning a confrontation with the ck-armored soldier captain.
Including middle-aged mercenary Roke and the middle-aged priest, the other mercenaries in the team also gritted their teeth and took out their weapons.
As for the stylish mercenary, he also had a fearless expression, biting his lips and standing at his battle position.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the city gate was solemn and battle was imminent.
However, it was clear to anyone observing closely.
Although the strength difference between Donna and the ck-armored soldier captain was minuscule, both being at Tier 2 Peak Level.
But the other ck-armored soldiers were far stronger than Donnas ordinary mercenaries in both number and strength.
Also, on the towering city wall stood a team of crossbowmen, their sharp arrowheads aimed directly at Donna and her team.
With this, the situation was evident.
s, it seems this mercenary team is doomed.
Realizing this, a middle-aged merchant in luxurious clothes standing not far away sighed helplessly and shook his head.
Other businessmen and mercenaries beside him also showed the same look of regret, sighing softly.
Still surrounded by the ck-armored soldiers, Donna and her team, tense and ready to fight, also had serious expressions on their faces.
At this moment, they clearly understood.
This battle will definitely be to the death!
These merciless bastards, Ive had it with them a long time ago.
Since itse to this, even if I die, Ill drag a few of them down with me!
Taking a deep breath, middle-aged mercenary Roke spat out and tightly gripped the shield and dagger in his hands.
However, it was obvious that facing the opponentsing up, his sturdy body was trembling slightly.
As for the middle-aged priest beside him, he clenched his cheap magic staff involuntarily, swallowing a mouthful of spit and cold sweat had seeped out from his forehead.
Without a doubt, the vicious scene of these heartless ck-armored soldiers ughtering innocents was still fresh in everyones memory.
On their side, the ck-armored soldier captain naturally had a calm andposed expression, gently waving his ice-cold longsword with a flickering edge in his hand.
He thenmanded in a cold voice, Ill deal with the female mercenary captain personally. As for the rest, not a single one should be left.
Hehe, captain, leave it to us. Grinning sinisterly, the murderous subordinate led the other ck-armored soldiers to slowly move forward.
At this moment, the scene became extremely tense.
In the confrontation of several impressive auras, even the surrounding air seemed to grow thicker, making it difficult to breathe.
However, just as this bloody battle was about to begin,
A group of ordinarily dressed travelers appeared at a distance, leisurely walking towards the city gate under the leadership of a young man.
This group of people was naturally Leo Rays team in disguise using illusion magic.
For a time, the presence of their own people was in stark contrast to the solemn atmosphere.
It was like a boulder thrown into calm waters, causing a great disturbance at the city gate.
How dare they ignore us and try to swagger into the city? Seems like theyve taken a leopards guts.
The ck-armored soldier captain, who noticed this keenly, spat out and his face instantly became gloomy.
After leaving a team of soldiers to watch over Donna and the mercenaries, he immediately led the remaining teams of soldiers and marched towards Leo Rays team menacingly.
Seeing this, the remaining merchants and mercenaries,
Could not help but reveal a look of disbelief, and begin to whisper to each other.
Judging from their attire, they are clearly foreigners. Dont they know how terrible Redarrow City is?
It must be so, it seems that more souls will fall at the hands of these arrogant soldiers today.
Hush! Keep it down, do you want to die?
s, I just feel sympathy for these innocent travelers.
Hearing this, Donna and the other mercenaries, still in the middle of the encirclement, showed surprise on their faces while breathing a slight sigh of relief.
Chapter 496 - 373: What is That Thing_2
Chapter 496: Chapter 373: What is That Thing_2
They shed with these soldiers out of desperation, so why would anyone still jump into the pit recklessly?
At this moment, looking at Leo Rays calm face not far away, Donnas delicate face was full of puzzled expressions.
Boy, do you think this city is a ce you can just casually step foot in?
Walking straight up to Leo Ray, the ck Armored Soldier Captain first carefully sized up their group.
Then he said disdainfully, To enter this ce, you must get permission from me!
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows and said calmly, How can we get your permission?
Well The ck Armored Soldier Captains gaze couldnt help but fall on Scarlett and Bianca White.
At this moment, although the two of them had already changed their appearance and figure with illusions and looked much more ordinary than usual.
However, they still made the ck Armored Soldier Captain involuntarily swallow his saliva, and then a smirk appeared on his face, Leave them behind, and maybe Ill consider it!
This scene seems a bit familiar, or rather, trash from anywhere always show the same face.
Hearing this, Leo Rays face remained calm and collected.
At this point, whether in terms of strength or intelligence,
They had alreadye a long way from when they first entered Cyan Town, and naturally, there was no need to worry about such scum.
Sorry, but you are not qualified to keep my people. Looking at the ck Armored Soldier Captain full of murderous intent in front of him, Leo Ray said with a light smile.
Boy, then you can go to hell!
Ten steps away, as a thick killing intent emerged on the ck Armored Soldier Captains face, the cold light of his longsword flickered as he stabbed towards Leo Ray!
Seeing this scene, the surrounding merchants and mercenaries, including Donna and the others, couldnt help but show a look of intolerance.
Unexpectedly, the first person to be bloodied on the spot would be a young man who had nothing to do with this matter.
Ill handle it myself.
On the other side, indicating for the subordinates such as Taylor not to take action, Leo Rays mind shed, and Rnddel appeared instantly, directly confronting the attack.
At this moment, Leo Ray had already reached Tier 3 Eight-Star level, only a step away from bing a Tier 3 Pinnacle Powerhouse.
Dealing with opponents who hadnt even broken through Tier 3 would naturally be a piece of cake.
Frightening sh!
Apanied by a dazzling burst of light, when Leo Ray slowly put away his sword,
The ck Armored Soldier Captain in front of him, along with his longsword, had already been shed to the ground, as his erging pupils were filled with an incredulous horror.
For a moment, the entire city gate area fell silent.
No one could have predicted that this seemingly ordinary young man was capable of killing the Tier 2 Peak ck Armored Soldier Captain in a single move!
So strong Watching this scene, Donnas lithe figure trembled slightly, her delicate face full of disbelief.
Everyone together, kill this damned kid!
Immediately afterward, at the behest of a ck Armored Soldier, several teams of ck Armored Soldiers raised their weapons, their faces filled with ferocity, as they charged at Leo Ray like madmen.
A quick battle and quick decision. Casting a nod at his subordinates, Leo Ray said indifferently.
Yes, my Lord! The deep and powerful response echoed, and beside Leo Ray, apart from Taylor, who was the strongest and stayed by his side,
Everyone else turned into a shadow and began a blood-soaked storm of violence around them.
At the moment, not to mention the strength of Tier 3 Eight-Star Leo Ray himself and the Tier 5 Taylor,
In their own team, there were already two Tier 4 Powerhouses: Gideon ck and Scarlett.
As for the remaining three: Bianca White, Abigail, and Amelia, they had all reached the Tier 3 Pinnacle level.
Dealing with these ordinary and vicious soldiers is undoubtedly a breeze.
Thus, amidst the cold shes of swords,
In just a short time, except for their own people,
Not a single ck Armored Soldier could still stand in the vicinity, and even the squad of soldiers surrounding Donna and the other mercenaries had beenpletely wiped out.
As for the crossbowmen on the city wall, who were waiting for an opportunity to strike, they had already been destroyed by one of Scarletts explosive fireballs, along with part of the crions.In the midst of the scattering rubble, they screamed and fell from the city wall.
As everything happened in the blink of an eye,
By the time the mercenaries and merchants around them reacted,
This sudden battle had alreadye to an end.
For a moment, everyones eyes were on Leo Ray, their faces filled with astonishment.
They had never expected that this seemingly indifferent young man, not only had extraordinary strength,
But alsomanded a team of terrifyingly powerful subordinates.
It was likely that none of them were less than Tier Third level!
However, at the same time,
The onlookers expressions showed a hint of lingering fear that they couldnt suppress.
After all, these soldiers had Marquis Rocky behind them!
Moreover, the current City Lord of Redarrow City was an elder from Marquis Rockys family.
Going against such influential people was like using an egg to smash a rock, only inviting disaster!
Sigh, even if this young man kills these soldiers, what difference does it make? It still doesnt change anything. The power behind that man is terrifying.
Yes, yes, once Marquis Rocky arrives with the wrath of thunder, Im afraid we wont be able to escape the consequences. Wed better leave this ce full of trouble as soon as possible!
At that time, Im afraid this battered Redarrow City will also suffer.
Hearing the peoples discussion, Donna couldnt help but frown.
Then she came directly to Leo Rays side, bowed her fists and said, Thank you, Your Excellency! If it werent for your help,
Our team would have surely been killed here.
No need to be polite. Whether you were here or not, I would have done the same. Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and nodded.
So, you know this is Redarrow City? At his words, Donna was taken aback, then said with confusion, Arent you afraid of Marquis Rocky, whos behind them?
Marquis Rocky? Whats that? Is it really that powerful?
With a disdainful sneer, Leo Ray deliberately raised his voice by a few decibels, loudly saying, Actually, what you are really afraid of is the Great Prince who supports Rocky, right?
Let me tell you, we have the power to fight against the Great Prince!
Lo Rays words immediately sparked an uproar among the crowd.
The power to fight against the Crown Prince?! Are they working for one of the other two princes?!
It must be! The power struggle for the throne in the Royal Capital has been known to the whole Coldme Kingdom. I didnt expect the war to have reached this remote little town!
It turns out, these powerful people are sent by one of the other two princes to clean up opposing forces!
No wonder they are so fearless and powerful. Redarrow City is finally seeing the light!
Hearing this, Leo Ray smiled faintly.
There was no doubt that he wanted this effect.
Even if the Great Prince stood behind Marquis Rocky,
As long as they could divert the Great Princes attention to the other two princes,
They could buy some peaceful time for both themselves and Ariel Watson for a while.
And these merchants and mercenaries were undoubtedly the best way to spread this information.
In this way, not only can Redarrow City return to normal and get rid of Marquis Rocky, who is reaching out for me,
But alsoy a good foundation for winning over the Holy Light General Joshua.
Moreover, it canpletely attract the attention of the Great Prince to the other two princes, winning more development opportunities for our side.
It can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray smiled slightly, nodded to his subordinates, and walked towards the city on his own initiative.
Chapter 497 - 374: A Whole New Attempt_1
Chapter 497: Chapter 374: A Whole New Attempt_1
Your Excellency, please wait a moment!
Just as Leo Ray and his subordinates were about to step into Redarrow Citys gate-
Donnas anxious voice rang out from behind the group.
Whats the matter?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray didnt stop, but continued walking while turning his head slightly to reply.
Your Excellency, what exactly brings you to Redarrow City? Donna sped up her pace and quickly caught up.
Naturally, its topletely eliminate Rockys forces that are entrenched here. Leo Ray said nonchntly with a faint smile.
This time, although their group had only seven people, including Leo Ray.
However, with one Tier 5 Powerhouse, two Tier 4 Powerhouses, and four Tier 3 Powerhouses, their lineup was already quite luxurious.
Furthermore, ording to custom, when Leo Ray left his territory-
He carried twenty-four Tier 3 three-star Earth Guardians and two Sky Guardians of the same rank on his person.
With such a force, dealing with a small town like Redarrow City, which was even smaller than Ma Town, was undoubtedly more than enough.
As expected
After hearing this, Donna immediately spoke up without hesitation, her face serious: Your Excellency, even though you have extraordinary strength, youre new to this area and unfamiliar with the terrain.
We are willing to act as your guides in gratitude for your help!
At the same time, the young mercenary, middle-aged mercenary Roke, and the middle-aged patched-up priest beside her all showed determination in their faces and bowed to Leo Ray.
We not only almost shed with Redarrow Citys soldiers just now, but also want to guide these powerful people into the city.
This is the craziest thing Ive ever done in my lifeI hope its not thest.
At this moment, mixed emotions filled Rokes heart, and he involuntarily swallowed his saliva.
As for the young and attractive mercenary, the look in his eyes when he looked at Leo Ray was already filled with unrestrained admiration; he was so excited that he could hardly speak.
Acting as guides?
At the city gate, Leo Ray slowly stopped and couldnt help but show a contemtive expression.
Originally, he nned to eliminate Marquis Rockys forces entrenched in Redarrow City and then directly infiltrate Pinehaven City to settle the score with him.
After all, this guy had already developed a killing intent towards him and even sent spies to Cyan Town to gather intelligence, so he couldnt be let off.
As for this city full of holes, Leo Ray didnt have any special arrangements in mind.
He could imagine how difficult and time-consuming it would be to start from scratch and rebuild a defense army here.
Therefore, Leo Ray only instructed Mn Town, the nearest city under his control, to prepare for receiving civilians seeking refuge.
If thats the case, hiring a group of trustworthy mercenaries to guard the city for a long time might be a good choice.
Having this thought, Leo Rays eyebrows slightly raised, and with a movement of his mind, a shining gold coin appeared in his hand.
There are 19 Gold Dragons here.
After putting the gold coins into Donnas hand, Leo Ray continued indifferently: Your team has a total of ten people.
With one Tier 2 Powerhouse and nine Tier 1 Level mercenaries, the Tier 2 Powerhouse gets 10 coins, and the Tier 1 Level gets 1 coin each.
Consider this your wages for today, and our employment contract can be of long-term effect.
After cooperating with me inpletely purging this area-
Your mission is simple: defend this city and prevent any external threats.
After finishing speaking, without waiting for anyone else to react-
Leo Ray waved his hand, and ten chests full of golden coins appeared before everyone.
At this moment, under the shining of two brilliant suns-
Gold Dragon coins filled the delicate treasure chests to the brim, reflecting dazzling golden rays of light.
This scene immediately stirred up waves among the surrounding crowd and subsequent arriving teams.
Undoubtedly, not only these mercenaries but also the merchants who hired them had rarely seen such arge amount of Gold Dragons appear at once!
For a moment, thirst and astonishment filled countless eyes, and exmations of surprise echoed from all directions.
My God, thats at least one hundred thousand Gold Dragons!
No wonder hes one of the Princes men. Such deep pockets are indeed terrifying.
One Gold Dragon per day? In that case, amon Tier 1 Level mercenary will get 30 Gold Dragons a month!
You know, even a Tier 1 Peak Level veteran mercenary, on a good day, can only earn at most 15 Gold Dragons a month!
Yeah, like for a rookie mercenary like me, I can only earn 8 Gold Dragons a month.
Im at the Tier 2 Peak Level, and the most Ive ever made in a month was 130 Gold Dragons.
If I follow this gentleman, wouldnt I be making 300 Gold Dragons a month? Its unbelievable!
The most important thing is that this is a defense-oriented task that ordinary people can hardlye across. Its almost no different from a vacation!
Listening to this, Leo Ray continued to maintain a faint smile.
When they had first taken control of Cyan Town, he had already deeply researched the monthly ie of mercenaries.
Chapter 498 - 374: A Completely New Attempt_2
Chapter 498: Chapter 374: A Completely New Attempt_2
As such, this reaction was naturally within his expectations.
Young sir, do you still need more helpers? My small team has two Tier 2 powerhouses, five with Tier 1 peak strength, and a well-rounded mix of professions.
We are a 20-year-old mercenary team certified by the Mercenary Guild, with a guaranteed reputation and never breaking a contract!
Sir, in my team, there are three Tier 1 peak level mages with excellent long-range attack capabilities. Please hire us!
Brothers, calm down! Following this gentleman is the same as opposing Marquis Rocky! The oue will be miserable!
Whats there to fear? Behind this gentleman stands one of the two princes. Are we still afraid of that old dog Rocky?
Moreover, look at what these people have done to Redarrow City? We are righting the wrongs for heavens sake!
Thats right. Ive long been fed up with these soldiers who have been misbehaving in Redarrow City.
Today, I will use my giant axe to teach them a lesson!
Looking at the increasingly excited mercenaries not far away, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he turned to the still standing and stunned Donna and said, Go ahead, Ill leave the selection of mercenaries to you.
Choose the teams that you think are suitable to be stationed here.
Before this, Leo Ray had naturally seen the causes and consequences of the confrontation between the female mercenary captain and the city defense soldiers.
In addition, she had chosen to help his side at the risk of danger, so entrusting this task to her was undoubtedly the best choice.
Sir, are you saying I shall be in charge of this ce from now on?
Upon hearing this, Donnas delicate face showed a look of astonishment, her long eyshes trembling slightly.
Yes, you can understand it that way. Leo Ray nodded slightly and waved his hand, Time is running out, go quickly.
Yes, sir! Upon hearing this, Donna and her team members hurriedly began to get busy.
Since these mercenaries knew each other well and were familiar with each others character and history.
So in just a short time, Donna quickly returned to Leo Rays side.
Then, her spirited voice reached his ears, Reporting to you, sir.
Currently, I have selected ten teams of mercenaries with impressive strength andbat ability, temporarily forming a mercenary squadron.
The contract will be signed in the Mercenary Guild within the cityter on.
In addition, there should be enough mercenaries staying in the city to form a second mercenary squadron.
However, due to theck ofrge-scale mercenary corps organizations nearby, it is difficult to recruit mercenaries ofrger than squadron strength.
But please rest assured, sir, these mercenary teams are all very reliable.
Very good. Later, I will deposit arge amount ofmission directly into the Mercenary Guild here.
After nodding slightly, Leo Ray pondered for a moment and continued, By the way, the strength of two squadrons is far from enough.
Spread the news that we want to recruit a regiment-sized mercenary force to guard this city in the near future.
If there are mercenary corps with more than squadron strengthing to join, be sure to screen them well.
Without a doubt, for Leo Ray, who is currently holding millions of Gold Dragons,
this is not a problem, so it can only be described as a drop in the bucket.
The key is that hiring arge number of mercenaries to guard the city, or even engage inrge-scale legion warfare,
is a new attempt for his side.
It can be imagined that the mercenaries who are good at small teambat, and professional soldiers who are good atrge-scale military linebat, have significant differences, and their working styles arepletely different.
However, with Leo Rays financial resources, it is not impossible to gather all the numerous mercenaries of Coldme together in theory.
In this way, quantitative changes will naturally lead to qualitative changes.
There is no problem for the mercenary troops, whose strength is not weak, to cooperate with the regr troops in attack and defense.In conclusion, although Ive had this idea before, its still apletely new attempt.
Lets start with this mercenary unit.
With that thought, Leo Ray hesitated slightly and purposely raised his voice louder.
Then he said indifferently, By the way, if I find any mercenaries acting arrogantly here, their fate will be the same as these ck armored soldiers lying on the ground.
Understood! Please rest assured, sir! Hearing this, Donna quickly bowed again.
Those selected mercenaries, after ncing at the corpses scattered on the ground, showed a respectful expression and nodded hurriedly.
All right, the other mercenary teams will stay here to guard the gate and clean up the battlefield. Your team, follow me.
Immediately after, Leo Ray waved his hand, collected the ten shimmering Gold Dragons back into his bag, and continued on his way.
After sessfully entering the city, Leo Ray noticed:
The streets of Redarrow City were filled with fallen leaves, deste houses, and an overall bleak atmosphere.
Only a few scattered shops were still operating, and the few pedestrians who passed by were all dressed as merchants and mercenaries.
Sir, this is the outer city area of the town, where only outsiders like us can stay.
At this time, Donna stepped forward with a serious expression, sighed lightly, and then introduced, The residents of the city have been concentrated in the more enclosed inner city area by the ruler of this ce.
There, the guards are numerous and dense, probably with nine middle teams of soldiers.
This includes an elite Tier 2 royal guard squad, which is the personal army of Marquis Rocky from Pinehaven City.
Moreover, the ruler himself is a ruthless Tier 3 Peak Powerhouse, so please be very careful, sir.
Its pretty much as I expected. Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and nodded.
This special town was under the jurisdiction of Marquis Rocky, and naturally, no one around dared to provoke him.
Therefore, a thousand soldiers were enough topletely suppress the residents in the city.
I have to say, its the first time Ive seen a city defense army thats not facing the outside but focused on the inside.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips.
Sir, theres a dense aura near the bell tower ahead, forming a very impressive atmosphere with an estimated scale of eight hundred to nine hundred people.
Following that, Taylors rough voice echoed in Leo Rays ears.
Sir, the city wall of the inner city is right next to that bell tower!
On the other side, Donna quickly added, That inner wall, like a heavy shackle, haspletely isted the poor residents of the city from the outside world.
So thats how it is. No wonder reinforcements havent arrived for so long. It seems the enemy is stationed there, waiting for us to fall into their trap.
Gazing at the towering ck bell tower in the distance, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly.
Thus, after crossing several deste streets in a straight line,
Another towering city wall appeared not far in front of Leo Ray.
Looking carefully, the top of this city wall, at least six or seven meters high,
Was already densely packed with arge number of bow and arrow-wielding archers, crossbowmen, and mages, ready for battle and emitting a murderous aura.
The cold light of sharp arrow tips glittering under the bright sun, as well as the small magic arrays constantly rotating and ready to unleash at the top of the magic wands,plement each other.
In addition to the icy aura and strong killing intent that emanated from nearly a thousand enemy soldiers and filled the air,
Donna and the other mercenaries couldnt help but swallow, feeling a chill down their spines.
But Leo Ray and hispanions still had a casual expression, obviously not taking these enemies seriously at all.
Is this the inner wall that blocks the citys residents?
At this time, looking at the towering and solid city wall in the distance, Leo Ray said indifferently, In that case,
Let me break this heavy shackle that has imprisoned the residents of the city for years.
Chapter 499 - 375: The Broken Shackles_1
Chapter 499: Chapter 375: The Broken Shackles_1
On the other side, atop the towering and sturdy city wall.
Surrounded by a team of ck-armored heavy infantry, a gray-robed skinny old man exuding a malicious aura narrowed his muddy eyes.
From above, he looked down on Leo Ray and his party with a face full of ferocity and contempt.
Kid, daring to forcefully break into my Redarrow City and even annihte my gatekeepers, you have quite the courage.
He nced at Leo Ray, who stood at the front below the city wall with an indifferent demeanor.
The skinny old man, his face full of fierceness, said gloomily, Dont you know this town belongs to Marquis Rockys territory?
Of course I know.
With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Leo Ray, positioned just outside the opponents range, responded indifferently, As for those city guards, I was merely cleaning up the trash.
What a daring act! Knowing its Marquis Rockys territory and stilling recklessly.
No matter what kind of power is hidden behind you, none of you will leave Redarrow City today!
Hearing that, a dense murderous aura erupted from the skinny old man as he vowed, I will make you taste the meaning of worse than death!
Sir, this man is the infamous Viscount Tas, the one in power here.
At this point, Donna stepped forward and exined, His methods are extremely cruel.
He disregards the citys residents as human beings and single-handedly nned the construction of this towering inner wall.
He has forced all the citizens here to work on breeding Magic Pearl Monsters.
This has led to a sharp decline in the citys poption over the past few years, causing many innocent people to be prey to the Magic Pearl Monsters.
So thats why this group of outsiders could easily enter the city; they hired you despicable mud-legs.
Watching this scene from the city wall, the skinny old man sneered coldly and said grimly, Today, without exception, all of you must die here!
I will personally throw you into the river to feed those starving Magic Pearl Monsters!
Only when I hear your bones being crushed bit by bit by the Magic Pearl Monsters can my hatred be appeased!
Old bastard, shut up! Weve seen all your despicable deeds over the years, and we could only endure them because our strength was insufficient to confront garbage like you.
Now, with the help of this extraordinary powerhouse, even if we die, we will strip off ayer of your devilish skin!
Thus, we willfort the innocent souls of Redarrow City!
With a resolute face, Donna held her tightly gripped longsword across her chest.
Ridiculous idea. What does it matter how many of those lowly ants die?
With a disdainful, cold smile, the skinny old mans muddy eyes revealed a trace of killing intent once again, If you want to rely on this kid, lets see if hes truly capable!
As he finished speaking, the skinny old man waved his hand, and all the arrowheads and magic wands pointed at Leo Ray and hispanions positions.
For a moment, the considerable momentum of nearly a thousand people on the city wall coalesced into a massive pressure torrent.
The surrounding air became extremely viscous.
Seeing this, Donna and the mercenaries couldnt help but gulp, their faces disying an uncontroble apprehensive look.
Undoubtedly, under such a prepared and elevated-position situation, even a Tier 4 Level powerhouse would not dare to confront a Tier 2 Royal Guard Squad and eight Tier 1 Middle Teams easily, let alone them?
Especially that Tier 2 Royal Guard Squad with divine archers in group-shooting situations.
Just a single barrage of arrows would be enough to pin down several unprepared Tier 3 Powerhouses on the battlefield!
A bunch of useless people, thinking you can take a city with just a few of you, its simply absurd!
Watching the fearful expressions on Donna and the others faces, the skinny old man on the city wall wore a confident grin.
With a ferocious sneer, heughed, If I stand my ground and do nothing, what can you do to me?
Just try to take one more step, and Ill immediately shoot you into a sieve!
As soon as he finished speaking, the other ck-armored soldiers on the city wall joined in theughter, their faces full of disdain.
Intense killing intent surged from their wicked eyes.
Sir, what should we do? Should we hire more personnel? Seeing this, Donna furrowed her brows and softly suggested to Leo Ray.
The other team members around her also hurriedly nodded in agreement.
There was no doubt that even if all the followers of this powerhouse were Tier 3, it would still be impossible to take down this impregnable city wall guarded by nearly a thousand soldiers!
Dont worry, I have a way.
Hearing this, Leo Ray gave a slight wave and still maintained his unruffled expression.
Then, he smiled faintly and murmured to himself, This is just the right opportunity to test the power of those things.
With that thought, Leo Ray mentallymanded, and a hundred shiny, brand-new magic cannons appeared in a 1010yout on the square in front of everyone.
For a moment, hundreds of pitch-ck muzzles aimed directly at the towering city wall in the distance.
Before anyone could react, Leo Ray first opened the attribute column of one of the magic cannons.
[Name: Ancient Magic Cannon Fire]
[Grade: Tier 2?Fine (Green)]
Chapter 500 - 375: The Broken Shackles_2
Chapter 500: Chapter 375: The Broken Shackles_2
[Attack Magic: Rapid Fireball MAX]
[Additional Effect: Extended Cannon Barrel (Range increased by 50%)]
[Note: This is a fire-type magic cannon made with ancient magic technology. The extended cannon barrel maintains the magic power while increasing the original range of the magic cannon.
Additionally, the adjustable shooting angle allows it for various uses.]
Not bad. Closing the attribute column, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly.
These 100 magic cannons were naturally upgraded from one of the two magic cannons repaired by Scarlett.
Before leaving his territory, Leo Ray had already instructed Belinda Wright to lead the Half-elf Squad members.
Each magic cannon was equipped with a fully charged Demon Energy Luminous Crystal, allowing them to be ready to fire at any time.
The range of the magic cannon is higher than that of ordinary attack magic and bow and arrow. These magic cannons acquired from the Ancient Ship have further strengthened this function.
Now, I want to see who will shoot who and sieve the range.
At this moment, Leo Ray smiled faintly.
With a wave of his hand, ten tall and mighty Earth Guardians appeared, guarding the surrounding of the 100 magic cannons.
Then, he nodded at the already prepared Scarlett and Gideon ck.
Yes, sir!
Apanied by a respectful response,
A red and a dark gold magic array simultaneously stretched from Scarlet and Gideon cks feet, quickly extending towards the area of the magic cannon formation.
After just a moment, the two expanding magic arrays each upied half of the position.
Immediately, under their control, the many magic cannon muzzles began to slowly raise or lower, adjusting the angle of fire.
Before this, Leo Ray was informed that,
In situations requiring precision and external energy supply from Demon Energy Luminous Crystal,
Only when a Tier 1 mage team cooperatively controlled one Tier 2 magic cannon could they achieve a rtively high hit rate.
By this logic, controlling 50 Tier 2 magic cannons for Scarlett and Gideon ck, who are Tier 4 Magic Experts, was an easy task.
Thus, under the incredulous gazes of Donna and others, as well as the shocked eyes of the skinny old man and soldiers on the city wall,
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Apanied by deafening explosions,
With the trembling ground, the scene of a hundred cannons firing at once was extremely shocking.
Simultaneously, a series of explosions started going off crazily on the distant city wall.
In an instant, rocks scattered and smoke billowed.
Just now, the ck Armored Soldiers who were fully prepared to shoot the other party into sieve, were now sted in disarray.
At the top of the city wall, the area had already turned into a sea of burning mes.
From time to time, soldiers screamed, apanied by arge amount of rubble, falling from the towering wall, struggling to get up from the ground.
Suddenly, countless sounds of chaos filled the air, making the whole scene extremely chaotic.
Looking at this scene before him, no ripple appeared on the calm face of Leo Ray.
On the battlefield, it was a realm of life and death, a ce of Asura.
Now that these ck Armored Soldiers stood against them and raised their des, they naturally had no reason to spare them.
On the other side, after the initial shock,
The expressions of Donna and others gradually changed from disbelief to uncontroble excitement.
They never thought that the power hidden by this young man far exceeded their imagination!
Now, the residents of Redarrow City can finally regain their freedom!
At this moment, looking at Leo Rays tall figure in the distance, Donnas slender eyshes fluttered, her face full of admiration.
Other mercenaries beside her also looked at the distant, burning city wall with admiration as they held their ringing ears.
At this moment, these mercenaries understood clearly.
This cruel shackle that has imprisoned the city for years is being shattered by this young man with thunderous momentum!
Meanwhile, since the magic cannons have a certain cooling time,Therefore, looking at the city wall engulfed in smoke, Leo Ray didnt hesitate.
With another wave of his hand, another 100 cannons C upgraded from the 2nd and repaired Magic Cannon C appeared out of thin air.
Following Leo Rays signal,
Gideon ck and Scarlett stepped forward and began to control the cannons again.
Just like that, apanied by deafening explosions,
After the second round of magic cannon fire,
The dense smoke obscured the once-solid inner city wall, now riddled with holes and half-copsed.
Originally, this wall had a certain ability to defend against magic cannon attacks.
However, no one would have thought that it would be bombarded simultaneously by 200 Tier 2 Magic Cannons!
It is worth mentioning that magic cannons are extremely expensive.
Only the Coldme Royal Family and several major kingdoms and aristocratic families could easily afford such arge investment; ordinary forces simply couldnt achieve it.
And why would these top forcese to such a remote corner?!
It is said that one magic cannon, with its tremendous power, can severely cripple an ordinary squad of a hundred people.
With 200 of them attacking in rotation, let alone a force of less than a thousand people,
Even a force in the tens of thousands would probably suffer heavy losses instantly.
Looking at the burning city wall in the distance, the middle-aged mercenary Roke clenched his shield in his hand, involuntarily swallowing again.
After two more precise rounds of bombardment,
Leo Ray returned the 200 magic cannons to his Space Bracelet andmanded the 10 Earth Guardians to lead the way,
Meanwhile, he spoke to his subordinates and mercenaries like Donna, Alright, lets continue moving forward.
At this point, it is clear to see.
The towering wall in front had been almost leveled by the cannon fire, emitting thick smoke.
Seeing this, the excitement on the faces of Donna and the others was unmistakable.
The heavy shackles that had been binding the entire city had been broken, and they were fortunate to be witnesses to this moment!
As they approached the ruins of the city wall, they noticed that the area was aplete mess, barely showing any signs of life.
Only the scorching air andrge fragments of broken walls remained, proving the bloodbath that had just taken ce.
You little bastard, hand over your life!
At this moment, from the ruins of the city wall not far away,
A burnt and dishevelled figure suddenly erupted from the rubble, wielding a glittering axe as he charged towards Leo Ray, who was at the center of the group!
This person was none other than the Skinny Old Man who had been so arrogant earlier.
By this point, it was clear to see.
There was a sinister look on the Skinny Old Mans face; he was obviously determined to risk his life.
However, before the man could get close, Taylor, who had been guarding Leo Ray, silently approached him.
The next second, apanied by a dragon roar and a sh of cold light from the Dragon-ying Giant Sword, the world turned silent once more.
ncing at the dried-up corpse on the ground, Leo Ray didnt hesitate and continued towards the inner city.
Once inside, Leo Ray found that,
the environment here was hardly different from that of Ma Town.
Looking around, the houses were broken, the streets stank, and the entire ce was bleak, a slum among slums.
Sir, the Magic Pearl Monster breeding ground is on the east side of the inner city, near the river. Please follow me.
Looking at the surrounding ruins, Donna helplessly shook her head before speaking to Leo Ray.
Understood, lets keep going. Nodding slightly, Leo Ray quickened his pace.
At this moment, he could clearly perceive the damp airing from the river.
In a short span of time, after easily taking out thest batch of ck-armored soldiers guarding the breeding ground,
A vast breeding ground built by the river gradually revealed itself in front of Leo Ray.
Chapter 501 - 376: Donna’s Loyalty_1
Chapter 501: Chapter 376: Donnas Loyalty_1
Upon careful observation, this breeding ground appeared to be a long, fortified fortress built on a riverbed, made entirely of piled stones that were so closely packed together that almost no wind could pass through.
At first nce, it resembled a giant cage.
Furthermore, at this time, there were already quite a few raggedly dressed Redarrow City residents, huddling in small groups nearby, cautiously watching their surroundings.
These residents included men, women, young, and old, all with their distinct appearances.
However, they all had one obvious thing inmon.
They all appeared malnourished and numb, with a pervasive sense of panic in their eyes, clearly having been enved for a long time.
Seeing this, Leo Ray shook his head slightly and withdrew his gaze.
After instructing the ten Earth Guardians to guard the entrance,
he led his subordinates, as well as Donna and the other mercenaries, directly into the breeding ground.
As soon as they entered the gate, an extremely strong, fishy odor immediately filled their nostrils.
The pungent smell caught Scarlett, Bianca White, and Donna off guard, causing them to start retching.
Leo Ray slightly furrowed his brow, adjusted his breathing, and continued to walk inside.
As they looked around, the ground was muddy and damp, and the light was exceptionally dim.
Next, after passing through a corridor and several heavy iron gates,
they sawrge breeding pools separated by stone walls.
Each of these pools was about fifty to sixty square meters, densely packed together, totalling over a hundred pools, stretching as far as the eye could see.
At the edges of these pools were already corroded iron fences, some with traces of dried blood still visible.
At the same time, a surging, violent, and restless aura of Demon Beasts also rushed toward them.
Sir, theres an enormous number of Magic Pearl Monsters here. Please be cautious, Taylors rough voice soon reached Leo Rays ear.
Understood. Leo Ray nodded slightly, and with a thought, Rnddel appeared in his palm, slowly walking towards the edge of one of the breeding pools.
As he approached and looked down, Leo Ray noticed that the water level in the pool was about three meters deep, filled with murky water.
He sawrge, pitch-ck silhouettes hidden within, slowly wriggling.
Beyond expectation, a faint purple glow was scattered across the surrounding pool walls, adding a touch of eerie effect to the dark environment.
Sir, the purple glow on the walls should be made from ground Demon Dragon Bones, which have the effect of deterring low-level Demon Beasts.
Thats why these Magic Pearl Monsters cannot break out of their breeding pools, Scarlett exined with a pinched nose and an amusing expression on her face, clearly not adapting well to the environment.
No wonder shes most afraid of Tier 1 Hydro Slimes.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray couldnt help but curl his lips slightly, then nodded, acknowledging Scarletts words.
Is this the Magic Pearl Monster breeding pool? I wonder how many innocent souls it has imed?
On the other side, a middle-aged Priest dressed in patchwork robes curiously peered into the pool before sping his hands in prayer.
Just then, two pitch-ck tentacles suddenly appeared and, amidst the sshing water,
swung violently towards the unguarded middle-aged Priest at lightning speed!
As everything happened in the blink of an eye,
the other mercenaries, including the not-so-distant Donna, immediately stepped forward, ready to provide support.
However, the tentacles were even faster, leaving the mercenaries no choice but to watch with fear as the events unfolded.
Just as the middle-aged Priest was about to be bound by the sudden tentacles and dragged into the water,
in the nick of time,
several dazzling shes of light shone, and the two tentacles, along with a section of rusted iron fencing, were shed into several pieces, all falling into the murky water.
The one who took action was none other than the calm andposed Leo Ray.
By now, he had reached the Tier 3 Eight-Star level, and both his reflexes and speed had long surpassed those of ordinary people.
Intercepting these Tier 1 Peak Level Magic Pearl Monsters was naturally effortless.
Thank you, Sir, for saving my life!
On the other side, the trembling middle-aged Priest, having distanced himself from the broken iron fence, promptly bowed to Leo Ray, lowering his head deeply.
No need to be courteous. Leo Ray waved his hand casually, his expression thoughtful.
Just a moment ago, when the Magic Pearl Monsters in the water extended their tentacles, he had already noticed.
Their shapes were a cross between mollusks and octopuses, with a ckish-gray, menacing appearance.
It was no wonder that the residents of Redarrow City would be in such a dazed state from struggling to survive in such an environment every day.
Sir, many Redarrow City residents who came to feed the Magic Pearl Monsters have died at their hands.
At this time, Donna stepped forward and bowed to Leo Ray, sighing, This is just the safest situation. During the collection of Magic Beads, its even more perilous.
Chapter 502: 376: Donna’s Loyalty_2
Understood. Leo Ray nodded slightly without hesitation and directly approached the entrance.
With a wave of his hand, 100 neatly lined up Magic Cannons appeared out of nowhere.
Erase these demon beasts. hemanded.
After nodding to Scarlett and Gideon ck, Leo Ray, along with his subordinates and people like Donna, retraced their steps out of the breeding ground that seemed like an enormous cage.
Without a doubt, there were a hundred easier ways for Leo Ray to obtain the Gold Dragon.
He would never allow such things to continue existing on thend that now belonged to him.
After Leo Ray and his party left the breeding ground, the ear-splitting sound of cannon fire echoed in their ears once again.
Only then, the cautious inhabitants seemed to realize something and began to tentatively approach his party.
As the intensity of the cannon fire grew, the expressions on the inhabitants faces became more and more urgent, as if waiting for an answer that would only appear in dreams.
Big brother, are youhere to save us? a small, thin boy with a muddy face asked hesitantly after tugging on his mothers tattered sleeve.
With innocent, expectant eyes, he looked up at Leo Ray.
Upon hearing this, amidst his numerous subordinates, Leo Ray slowly approached the boy and bent down on one knee.
As he gently patted the boys head, he smiled and said, Yes, from now on, as long as Im on thisnd, there will be no one to shackle you anymore.
Nor anyone to put heavy chains on you.
At this moment, amidst the continuous cannon fire, Leo Rays voice, though soft, brought a wave of excitement among the crowd.
For a time, men and women, old and young, after a moment of stillness, began to cheer and jump with joy. Many even wept with happiness, hugging each other tightly.
At this moment, it was clear to everyone present.
The long cold night had passed.
A new warm sunrise was rising.
It was thanks to the appearance of the young man before them that this town, shrouded in darkness for so long, finally saw the dawn again!
Realizing this, grateful eyes filled with anticipation began to gather on Leo Ray.
Lord, the breeding ground has beenpletely wiped clean.
Immediately, Scarlett and Gideon ck reappeared in front of Leo Ray.
Very good, nodding slightly, Leo Ray took a step forward then recalled the Magic Cannons and Earth Guardians at the entrance of the breeding ground into his bag.
Then, leaving the cheering crowd, following Donnas guidance, he headed straight for the nearby Redarrow City Lords Mansion.
After a thorough search, besides somemon supplies and more than 50,000 Gold Dragons, no other gains were found.
Donna,e with me separately, He gestured.
Nodding to the Female Mercenary Captain, surrounded by his subordinates, Leo Ray took her to a secluded room.
What came next was the most critical aspect the submission process.
Since this ce is already under the management of this Female Mercenary Captain.
Thus, making her my direct subordinate is undoubtedly a matter of urgency.
Only then can I remotely manage this ce.
With this in mind, a thoughtful expression crossed Leo Rays face, Currently, this Female Mercenary Captain is at the peak of Tier Two.
On me, there are only three un-upgraded Tier 2 Recruitment Orders. It seems that just like yesterday, I will have to upgrade and use them now.
Immediately after, without any hesitation, Leo Ray began to upgrade one of them.
[Congrattions, your Tier 2 Recruitment Order has upgraded to Tier 2 Recruitment Order 102 units!]
Upon hearing the prompt, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows.
Then, he and his subordinates dispelled the illusory transformation on themselves, appearing before Donna in their true forms.
Next, as per convention, after Leo Rayid all his cards on the table, it didnt take much time.
Donna, deeply shocked, fell on her knees before Leo Ray, deeply bowing her head: I, Donna Maidie, pledge my undying loyalty to the Lord!
Begin signing the contract. Nodding slightly, a brand new Tier 2 Recruitment Order then appeared in Leo Rays hand.
A momentter, the familiar notification sound rang in his ears again.
[Congrattions, Tier 2 Nine-Star Wind Swordsman, Donna Maidie, has signed the Master-Servant Contract and has be your new subordinate!]
Hearing this, Leo Ray helped her up while opening her attribute sheet.
[Name: Donna]
[upation: Wind Swordsman]
[Tier: Tier 2 Nine-Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Swift Wind Triple Strike Active (Physical Single Target Attack)]
[Skill Two: Swift Wind sh Active (Physical Single Target Attack, Additional Armor Pration)]
[Skill Three: One-Handed Sword Mastery Passive (Slightly increase damage when using one-handed swords)]
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction, stirring his mind.
One Rose Gathering Energy Pill, one storage ring, one set of brand new Tier 3 leather armor and a Tier 3 longsword, fifty Qi Condensing Pills, fifty Tier 1 Magic Medicines, fifty Tier 2 Magic Medicines, and fifty offensive Tier 3 Magic Potion Scrolls C Dark Light Burst all appeared on the table beside him.
At the same time, a total of ten boxes, containing ten thousand Gold Dragons, were neatly lined up next to it.
For a moment, the room was filled with brilliant colors and aromatic fragrances.
Staring ck-jawed, Donna couldnt believe her eyes as her long eyshes flickered.
She had never seen such a dazzling scene, even in her dreams!
Next, after introducing all these priceless items one by one.
Leo Ray smiled and said, You should absorb that Rose Gathering Energy Pillter, consider it a wee gift from me.
It is enough to break through the shackles and directly reach the third tier, having been stuck at the peak of the second tier for a while.
Of course, theres also the set of Tier 3 equipment and the storage ring.
The fifty Qi Condensing Pills are for your team members to use, to quickly reach the peak of the second tier, bing the backbone to help you manage this ce.
When the timees, I will consider promoting them to Tier 3 powerhouses based on their performance.
The remaining healing magic medicines, Tier 3 attack scrolls, and the hundred thousand Gold Dragons, are naturally for the defense of Redarrow City, and for hiring other mercenaries.
Yes, Lord! Hearing this, Donnas evenly proportioned body trembled slightly, she was so excited she could hardly speak, and could only bow her head deeply to Leo Ray again.
Without a doubt, she could work for thousands of years without eating or drinking, and still might not be able to afford all these items!
Get up. Leo Ray smiled slightly and said, In a while, we will head to Pinehaven City and meet that Marquis Rocky who dominates everything.
Ill leave everything about Redarrow City entirely in your hands.
Remember, we are still one of the powers under themand of one of the other two princes this time.
Only in this way can we divert the Great Princes attention to the other two princes.
Yes, Lord, I understand! Rest assured! Donna nodded heavily, responding with a serious face.
Also, there is only one task for Redarrow City during this period, and that is to rebuild the town.
You must distribute sufficient food and other living materials to the residents every day.
The issue of garrisoning mercenaries can not be dyed either, make sure to form a mercenary team of a thousand as soon as possible.
After a slight pause, Leo Ray continued: If there is anything, contact me through Mind Talk at any time.
Yes, Lord! On the other hand, Donna bowed again, epting themand.
Alright, if everything has been arranged, then its time for us to set off.
Leo Ray nodded at Donna and turned to his other subordinates: Lets go, its time to meet that Marquis Rocky.
Chapter 503: 377: Sir, Times Have Changed_1
Pinehaven City Lord Mansion, City Lords office.
Within this spacious room with extremely luxurious decorations.
The crystal tassel chandelier iid with Light Crystal Stones and top-grade gems illuminated the splendid golden space, making it dazzling
Everywhere one looked, be it the masterfully crafted Advanced Magic Redwood Desk, the Magic Beast Fur Soft Carpet, or the golden firece with exquisitely carved patterns.
Everything exuded magnificent opulence, causing one to feel dizzy.
The dazzling exquisite murals on the walls and the disy of numerous precious artifacts.
This luxurious room also gave off the impression of a museum exhibition hall.
In short, everything was suffused with a thick aroma of wealth.
Needless to say, within this room.
Even the cheapest item was something ordinary civilians could never hope to possess in their lifetime of hard work.
It also demonstrated the owners immense wealth.
At this moment, a middle-aged nobleman dressed in luxurious clothes and with a fierce expression on his face was sitting behind his soft desk.
He casually swirled the amber-colored liquid in the wine ss in his hand whilezily looking at the two subordinates standing respectfully in front of him, yawning, Tell me.
How have our recent operations been going?
Hehe, reporting to City Lord, our recent operations against the Otherworldly Lords around Pinehaven City have been incredibly sessful.
We have already eliminated over a hundred Otherworldly Lords hiding in various ces with our subordinates.
And as per your instructions, their servants were ughtered and their mansions burned to the ground.
They havepletely vanished from thisnd.
The lean middle-aged man on the other side smiled ingratiatingly before responding.
Very good, the more these despicable Otherworlders are eliminated, the better.
After taking a sip of the amber-colored liquid in his ss, the fierce-faced middle-aged nobleman nodded in satisfaction, On my territory,
these ants with unknown origins shall not be allowed to exist.
Order everyone in Pinehaven City that as soon as they find an Otherworldly Lord, they must eliminate them on the spot, not leaving a single one.
Your subordinate obeys, City Lord.
Hehe, with a sinister Gleam in his eyes, the lean man respectfully replied, I guarantee,
There wont be a single Otherworldly Lord in Pinehaven City and its surrounding areas.
Hearing that, the fierce-faced middle-aged nobleman turned hiszy gaze to the other fat man,
Indifferently asked, How have the revenues been for this month?
Reporting to City Lord, the revenue has been very stable.
Upon hearing this, the fat man bowed down with a smiling face, Apart from the numerous businesses within and outside Pinehaven City,
Especially Redarrow City under the jurisdiction of Viscount Tas, its almost time for the harvest month of the Magic Pearls.
Since recently, as per the City Lords n, we have increased the scale of Magic Pearl monsters breeding,
the Lords ie will surely reach a new unprecedented height.
Excellent.
Having drank all the amber-colored liquid in his cup, the middle-aged nobleman revealed a satisfied smile on his face,
He casually said, Its a good thing, I have my eye on some rare items from the Dark Elf Race. Now, I can finally take them all.
Lord Loki is wise.
The fat man on the other side bowed, immediately ttering, Years ago, if it werent for your decisive actions in taking Redarrow City as our territory,
We wouldnt have this steady money tree.
Indeed, indeed, Lord Lokis strategic vision is truly rare in the world! The lean man on the side chimed in unwillingly.
Then, a worried look appeared on his pale face,However, in the past year, the poption of Redarrow City has suffered severe losses, which I fear will greatly affect our efficiency.
Thats true, Ive told Tas many times to find a way to increase manpower, but theres been no progress.
Putting down his wine ss, Rockys turbid eyes rolled, thinking, If this goes on, Im afraid our money tree in Redarrow City will wither sooner orter.
Lord Loki, your subordinate has an excellent idea. The fat man smiled ingratiatingly, bowed slightly,
And stepped forward, Recently, Ive been so bored that our Pinehaven City prison has be overcrowded. How about sending all these criminals to Redarrow City?
This way, even if Redarrow City runs out of people and bes empty, we will still have a continuous supply of manpower to transport.
Although the lives of these civilians are not important, we still have to keep our business going.
It seems you prepared early.
Nodding in satisfaction, Lord Rockys fierce face expressed approval, Very well, lets do this for now.
Also, I heard that there was an internal strife in Mn Town which greatly weakened its forces and changed to a new young City Lord, this is the perfect time to take advantage.
Making it the second Redarrow City is a good choice.
Chapter 504: 377: My Lord, Times Have Changed_2
Lord Rocky is indeed wise and far-sighted, I am not worthy.
Upon hearing this, the chubby-faced man hurriedly paid his respects and continued praising, If we can eliminate the new City Lord and take over Mn Town, it is indeed an excellent solution.
Not only can we replenish Redarrow Citys poption,
but also gain ess to the abundant resources of Mn Town. After all, it is an agricultural town with an impressive food production.
We should proceed with this matter as soon as possible. At this moment, Rocky revealed a gloomy smile, his expression full of satisfaction, as if he had made a great business deal.
Immediately following, he contemted for a moment and asked, By the way, have we received any news from our spy team leader in Cyan Town yet?
My Lord, not yet.
The man on the other side hurriedly replied with a clenched fist, But please rest assured, hes an experienced killer and has never failed before.
If the new City Lord of Cyan Town is truly an Otherworldly Lord as rumored,
Im afraid his head has already been removed.
That would be for the best. A lowly Otherworldly Lord upying one of our Coldme Kingdoms cities is a disgrace to us nobles!
On thisnd, only we have the privilege to envemoners, not those fools.
Nodding slightly, Rocky sneered, Whats most crucial is,
If we can present Princess Ariel, who fled to Cyan Town, to the Crown Prince, then our true good days wille.
Lord Rocky speaks the truth.
The chubby-faced man at one side continued, Killing the Otherworldly Lord in exchange for the Crown Princes continued favor,
is simply the most perfect deal.
Who would have thought that while fighting fiercely with the other two princes in the Royal Capital,
The Crown Prince could so quickly pay attention to remote Cyan Town and Princess Ariel.
One cannot help but admire our Crown Princes kingly demeanor!
Of course, the Crown Prince has guidance from powerful figures.
ying with the crystal-clear ss on the table, Rockys gloomy eyes continued, Although I still dont know who this powerful figure behind the Crown Prince is,
But if we can get this job done for him, eliminate the despicable Otherworldly Lord of Cyan Town, and forcibly send Princess Ariel back to the Royal Capital,
Then, when the Crown Prince is pleased, we would indeed be the greatest heroes of the new dynasty.
Hehe, following the wise Lord Rocky is indeed the most correct choice!
On the other side, both the thin and the chubby-faced man exchanged nces, their faces full of excitement.
The conversation ended, and the three of them burst intoughter.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Just at this moment, an urgent knocking sound suddenly rang out.
Immediately after, at Rockys gesture, the thin man opened the door,
An out-of-breath messenger entered and said in a panic, Lord Rocky, something terrible has happened!
Redarrow City is under attack by an unidentified force, and the situation is critical.
It is said that it could be one of the other two princes men!
What?! Rocky immediately stood up from his soft seat.
He mmed his palm onto the luxurious desk in front of him, breaking it in half, as he roared, How dare they target me?!
Thats enough, you may leave now.
Seeing this, the thin man motioned to the messenger to leave, and carefully closed the door again.
Then he cautiously asked, Lord Rocky, could it be that one of the other two princes is really behind the attack on Redarrow City?
But just recently, news came from the Royal Capital that due to the Crown Princes strong suppression, the situation of the other two princes isnt very stable.
How could they have the ability to send people to attack us?
On the other hand, the chubby-faced man looked puzzled.
Perhaps the two princes have teamed up, or maybe one of them has hired an external force, or even someone posing as them, is still unknown.
With a gloomy tone, Rocky pondered for a moment, and grumbled viciously, Regardless, as long as they dare to encroach on my territory,
I will smash their bodies into pieces!
Upon finishing, a strong aura of violence emanated from Marquis Rocky, causing the precious paintings hanging on the wall beside him to tremble slightly.
Theres no need to bother, Im already here.
At this moment, an indifferent voice suddenly rang out from the doorway.
Immediately after, several figures appeared arrogantly, their forms shifting from blurry to solid, until they clearly appeared before Rocky and the others.
These figures were none other than Leo Ray, Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett, who had removed their Invisibility Cloaks and Concealment Rings.
As for Bianca White, Abigail, and Amelia, their strength was only at the Tier 3 Peak Level and they risked being discovered.
Therefore, they stayed in Pinehaven City and did note together.
As for how Leo Ray, who was at the Tier 3 Eight-Star level, could quietly appear in front of a Tier 4 powerhouse like Marquis Rocky, it was naturally because he had been seated aboard the Tiger Cane Vessel.
Chapter 505: 377: Sir, Times Have Changed_3
With the protection of a Tier 5 powerhouse, it was undoubtedly impossible to detect Leo Rays presence.
At the same time, the powerful energy emanated from Gideon ck and Scarlett hadpletely isted the entire room from the outside world.
Seeing this, the chubby man and the thin man couldnt help but exchange nces, their faces full of vignce and shock.
Keep in mind that this was Marquis Rockys office, located in the most heavily guarded area of Pinehaven Citys City Lord Mansion.
The fact that they could appear here silently proved that these people were not to be trifled with.
What was even more terrifying was that, aside from the young man who had spoken,
They, who were all at the Tier 3 Peak Level, couldnt see through the power of the other three.
Thinking of this, a few drops of cold sweat slid quietly from the foreheads of the two men.
No need for trouble? Are you the attackers of Redarrow City?
At this moment, in shock, Rockys muddy eyes shifted, his face full of vignce as he said in a deep voice, You have a lot of nerve to show up here!
After speaking, Rocky subtly signaled to the other two men beside him.
As a Tier 4 five-Star, he was well aware of how powerful the intruders were and that they had appeared here with preparation.
Moreover, the whole room had beenpletely sealed off by the enemy, preventing anymunication with the outside world.
The key point was that the burly man gave a faintly terrifying feeling, his strength clearly above Tier 4 five-Star.
Therefore, the only option
was to first kill or capture the weakest young man using all their strength, in order to leave through the secret door by the firece during the enemys confusion.
On the other side, the thin and chubby men immediately understood and their killing intent soared in their eyes. Impressive auras began to quietly sweep out from them.
However, at that moment,
The burly figure directly opposite them suddenly disappeared from where he was standing.
The next second, apanied by a dazzling sh of light,
Rockys two subordinates fell to the ground without even having time to groan.
In an instant, two puddles of bright red liquid flowed out.
A Tier 5 powerhouse?!
Seeing this, Rockys face was filled with disbelief, and his killing intent from earlier was long gone.
There was no doubt that he had no chance of victory against this national-level powerhouse!
While retreating unconsciously, he asked in panic, Who Who are you all?
Dear Marquis, didnt you send someone to me this morning?
Looking at Rockys panicked expression, Leo Ray said with a faint smile, Howe? Have you forgotten so quickly?
Or shall I say, am I, the Otherworldly Lord of Cyan Town, so terrifying to you?
Otherworldly Lord? You are the rumored Otherworldly Lord?!
Upon hearing this, Rockys face revealed another trace of disbelief, and he muttered to himself, Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
How can a mere Otherworldly Lord possess such immense power?!
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled and took a step forward, slowly saying, Sir, times have changed, as he was surrounded by his three subordinates.
Chapter 506 - 378: The Lord and His Hawk Dog_1
Chapter 506: Chapter 378: The Lord and His Hawk Dog_1
Hearing Leo Rays words, after a moment of surprise.
The maliciousness on Rockys face increased a bit more, almost imperceptibly.
From his twisted expression, he obviously wasnt nning on surrendering easily but instead looked at Leo Ray with killing intent.
However, before he could make a move.
Taylor, with his imposing figure, appeared behind him, stretching out his thick arms andpletely locking him in ce.
At the same time, an overwhelming pressure emerged from Taylors robust body.
Under the intense pressure, Rocky couldnt move at all.
Gideon ck stepped forward and searched Rocky for a moment, before removing the Storage Ring and the short de on his waist. He then returned to Leo Rays side.
You despicable Otherworlder, release me at once! You are only fit to be stepped on by me!
After beingpletely disarmed, a hint of panic appeared on Rockys face.
He nervously threatened, I am under themand of the Crown Prince; they are someone you cannot afford to offend!
Dont worry, after sending you on your way, it wont be long before theye and join you.
Opposite him, Leo Ray smiled faintly and replied, Remember, those who stand against me will only meet with destruction.
Lord Lord, please spare me! At his words, Rocky who saw that his threats were useless was momentarily stunned before going soft.
His turbid eyes rolled as he hurriedly said, My Lord, I have plenty of wealth.
Moreover, I have tens of thousands of ves who can be used at will. Why dont I give them all to you, my Lord?
With the vast wealth, you can spend freely. As for those civilians, it doesnt matter if all of them are killed!
Rocky, you seem to have misunderstood something.
ncing at him, Leo Ray slowly walked and said indifferently, Firstly, once youre dead, all of these things will naturally be mine.
Furthermore, not everyone is like you, only gaining wealth by squeezing the blood of others.
Lastly, dont think youre so much better than others. In my eyes, your life is even less valuable than that of an ordinary civilian.
At this point, the coldness in Leo Rays eyes intensified, and asking, More importantly, have you forgotten what happened five years ago?
What happened five years ago?
Upon hearing this, Rocky hesitated before saying resentfully, Are you talking about the incident in Redarrow City?
No wonder you attacked Redarrow City first; it seems that Joshua is also involved in this matter!
Her foolish foster parents couldnt make good use of Redarrow City, so it was only natural for me to take their ce.
You can only me them for being useless; they couldnt even defend their own city!
Ill return those words to you exactly as you said them; you can only me yourself for being useless. Even I, an Otherworldly Lord, can easily invade your territory.
Hearing this, Leo Ray didnt waste any more words with Rocky but nodded to the muscle-bound Priest beside him, Alright.
Search his body and see if there are any other useful pieces of information.
Yes, my Lord.
Hearing this, Gideon ck elegantly smiled, and the metal skull ne of the Dark Priest on his chest shone brightly under the illumination of the extravagant tassel chandelier above.
Seeing this scene, Rocky, who knew the situation was bad, wore a grimacing expression on his face filled with maliciousness, and said coldly, Young man, dont be too arrogant.
I only regret not having killed you with all my strength the first time.
Otherwise, I wouldve pulled off your fingers one by one!
However, once the Crown Princes thunderous wrath arrives, all you despicable Otherworldly Lords will die without a burial ce
Dark Aspects C Gaze of the Abyss Demon.
Rockys words were abruptly cut off.
The mysterious ck gleam reflecting from Gideon cks sses indicated that he had appeared right in front of Rocky.
Although both Rocky and Gideon ck were at the Tier 4 five-Star level.
Under Taylors suppression, Rockys internal energy had long since withered to the extreme.
As a result, trapping him in Gideon cks psychic attack was as easy as pie.
In this way, in just a moment.
The malice-filled expression on Rockys face changed from initial astonishment to extreme fear, and then to a state of terrified, nk eyes.
His tense body began to weaken and soon, he could no longer stand steadily in ce.
My Lord, I have obtained the information we need.
After a short while, Gideon ck pushed his sses up, returned to Leo Rays side, and bowed, That Rocky was nothing more than a peripheral pawn of the Great Prince.
He didnt possess any useful information about the Great Prince.
The only known information is that in the current battle for the Royal Capital, the Great Prince holds an advantage, overshadowing the other two Princes.
As for information about us, Rocky hardly knew anything.
Or rather, he never considered us as real opponents in his subconscious mind.
Arrogant fools, that is indeed amon trait among these noble lords. Raising his eyebrows slightly, Leo Ray motioned for Gideon ck to continue.
Apart from that, it is indeed the Great Prince who instructed Rocky to investigate Cyan Town.
Chapter 507 - 378: The Lord and His Hawk Dog_2
Chapter 507: Chapter 378: The Lord and His Hawk Dog_2
And let Rocky investigate more carefully when necessary, he can even take action against us directly.
So, I infer that the Great Prince probably doesnt know everything about Cyan Town and our situation.
After a slight hesitating, Gideon ck maintained his bowing posture and reported.
Understood. Leo Ray nodded slightly and thought: It seems that the Great Princes reach has indeed extended to Cyan Town.
Lord, there is another matter.
Immediately after, Gideon ck frowned slightly and added: It seems that there is an expert advising the Great Prince behind the scenes.
As for who exactly it is, Rocky doesnt know and it appears to be very mystifying.
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but raise an eyebrow and secretly ponder in his heart: ording to the intelligence gathered previously, it is known that.
Among the three princes who are fighting fiercely in the Royal Capital, one is very likely to have joined the ranks of the mysterious organization.
Thats why the actions of the mysterious organization have be increasingly unscrupulous on thisnd.
From this point of view, is it possible that the Great Prince is the one who joined the mysterious organization?
Upon realizing this, Leo Ray furrowed his brows and continued pondering in his heart: Forget it, the current clues are not sufficient to support this conclusion.
Therefore, Ill just observe for now.
However, one thing is certain, this Great Prince must be an extremely difficult existence to deal with.
I must learn more about his specific intelligence when I get back.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray emotionlessly looked at Rocky who had fallen intoplete fear.
He then turned to his subordinates beside him and said, Alright, take this half-dead guy with us, and lets get out of here.
At present, even though Pinehaven City is leaderless, Leo Ray doesnt n to conquer it just yet.
First, doing so would immediately alert the Great Princes faction and foil our n to divert their attention.
Second, although Rocky has been captured, the forces loyal to him are still present and will not easily hand over the city.
Finally, and most importantly.
This city is located near the border area of Coldme and Saint Night, a fortress in the border area.
And one of our trump cards to deal with the Coldme Royal Family is to use the Saint Night Army for bnce.
Therefore, as long as our side chooses to help the Saint Night Army again, forcing them to siege Pinehaven City, its obviously not a difficult task.
By doing so, we would undoubtedly be shooting ourselves in the foot.
Moreover, we cant rule out the possibility of the Saint Night Army attacking on their own.
In summary, this city will fall into my hands sooner orter.
However, at this stage, let it stand here to help us guard against the arrival of the Saint Night Army.
Of course, once I return to my territory, I will dispatch the Shadow Squad, the most elite team, to monitor the situation here at all times.
After all, apart from Rocky himself, his two fat and thin subordinates, and Tass from Redarrow City.
This city no longer has any Tier 3 Peak Level experts.
Making up his mind, Leo Ray put on his Invisibility Cloak again and nodded at his subordinates beside him.
Like this, they left the City Lord Mansion of Pinehaven City, and after reuniting with Bianca White and the other three in the city.
Following Leo Rays signal, their group headed towards Cyan Town without stopping.
Without a doubt, now it is time to win over Holy Light General Joshua!
In the luxurious suite on the top floor of Cyan Town Lords Mansion.
At this moment, Ariel Watson, with her slightly curled long hair and wearing a pink princess dress, was sitting on the soft sofa, sipping ck tea delicately.
For a moment, the elegantly decorated room, the bright sunlight shining through the silk curtains, the princess in pink lifting her teacup, the elegant and gentle movements, and the delicate face reflected in the teacup.
Everythingbined to form a captivating picture.
Next to Ariel Watson, an empty seat held a partially knitted pink sweater.
A momentter, she ced the exquisite white porcin cup on the coffee table in front of her, and Ariel Watson couldnt help but furrow her brows slightly.
She murmured in her heart, That annoying guy hasnt shown up for almost two days now.
Who knows what secretive things they are doing behind the scenes?
With this thought, Ariel Watson picked up a sweater next to her and skillfully used a knitting needle to pick up the wool yarn.
She then turned her head and asked a delicate-looking Tier 3 close maid beside her, in, where have General Gilbert and General Joshua gone?
Replying to Princess, General Gilbert is practicing martial arts in the small garden of the City Lord Mansion.
As for General Joshua, he was just called away by Celeste Reiss. It is said that she found an injured oriole and asked General Joshua to go treat it.
The Tier 3 close maid named in bowed slightly and responded.
It seems that I am the only one who is idle.
Hearing this, Ariel Watson put down the sweater in her hand, supported her fragrant cheek with one hand, and blinked her long eyshes.
She muttered to herself in her heart, I wonder who will be the ultimate winner in this battle for the throne.
Lords Mansion of Cyan Town, a certain guest room.
Celeste, you said the injured oriole is here?
As he stepped into the guest room door, Joshua, dressed in a white priest robe with a longsword at his waist, had a puzzled look on his delicate face and asked.
On the other side, Celeste Reiss, dressed as a maid, didnt answer, but bowed slightly to a screen, Lord, the person has been brought.
At the same time, an immense aura enveloped the entire room,pletely isting it from the outside world.
Well done.
Immediately afterward, a faint voice sounded. Leo Ray, apanied by Taylor, Gideon ck, and Scarlett, slowly walked out from behind the screen.
Its you?
Seeing Leo Rays figure, Joshuas fair face couldnt help but reveal a trace of surprise after a moment of amazement, Why are you here?
At this moment, it was evident.
Joshuas attitude towards Leo Ray had softened considerably after Leo Ray saved his life in the underground square of Dragons Lair.
Then, as if realizing something, Joshua incredulously looked at the maid on the side and said, Celeste, are you already with him?
On the other side, Celeste still didnt answer but took a step forward and directly stood behind Leo Ray, proving everything with her actions.
Seeing this, Joshuas eyebrows couldnt help but furrow, and he asked Leo Ray, What exactly do you want to do?
I went to Mystara City yesterday.
Opposite him, Leo Ray didnt directly answer the question but slowly paced.
He then said, Over there, I met a Defense Army Battalion Commander named Kara.
We happened to talk about some things rted to you.
You saw Kara? Upon hearing that, Joshua still kept a vignt expression and asked, What did she tell you?
Many things about you.
Leo Rays deep ck eyes stared directly into Joshuas starry pupils, his voice indifferent, Of course, this includes your background as well as your enemy.
Your Excellency, what exactly do you want to say? If its to mock me,
then congrattions, youve seeded.
With a self-deprecating smile, Joshuas fair face involuntarily darkened, and he sighed lightly, Ever since I learned the truth about Redarrow City,
I wanted to personally kill that cold-blooded demon at every moment, but I simply dont have the ability to do so. I can only watch helplessly as he continues to enjoy his life.
Not even able to protect my home, Redarrow City
At this point, Joshua, with long hair draped over her shoulders, had already clenched his fists, and her slightly thin body began to tremble slightly.
Just now, I happened to have gone to Redarrow City and destroyed their breeding ground. Then I went to Pinehaven City and brought this guy back along the way.
On the other side, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and signaled Taylor to drag a figure out from behind the screen.
Rocky?!
Seeing the figure clearly, an unstoppable killing aura suddenly erupted from Joshuas body.
Chapter 508: 379: Obedience of Juby_1
Chapter 508: Chapter 379: Obedience of Juby_1
At the same time as murderous intent surged through his body, a hint of doubt surfaced on Joshuas delicate face.
She forcefully suppressed her anger and asked Leo Ray in confusion, Your Excellency, what is your intention?
No particr intention. Leo Ray gave a slight smile, nced at Rocky, whose face still revealed a trace of ruthlessness and had long been lost in his thoughts.
Then he said lightly, I just want to help a helpless woman fulfill her desire for revenge.
Hearing this, Joshuas slender body trembled slightly, and then she asked, Your Excellency, why why are you helping me?
The things that are about to happen in this world, as well as what has happened, are far more terrifying than you know, Leo Ray said with a lightugh, not directly answering Joshuas question.
Without dy, he shared his knowledge with Joshua.
He spoke of the past: the nk Era 3000 years ago, the forsaken favor of the gods, and the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God.
He discussed the present: the mysterious organization lurking in the shadows, the conversation with Hero King Caesar in the Dragons Lair, where the ancestors slept, and the sightings of Elf Relics and the Winged Races Barrier.
As well as the future: the imminent arrival of a great catastrophe that could happen at any time, all described to Joshua.
During this process, he also disyed several items, such as the mysterious organizations mask, the Eternal Night Magic Box, Wind and Cloud Wings, and petrified Winged Race equipment that he acquired previously.
After listening to Leo Rays words, Joshuas expression went from astonishment to increasingly solemn.
Her upation was Sacred Sword Priest, one of the rare advanced upations of the Holy-Light Priest.
The organization that trained Holy-Light Priests was the Temple of Light, which had branches inrge cities of the Human n.
However, for thousands of years, the Temple of Light never participated in the conflicts among the Human n.
Only when the Human n faced threats from the Foreign Race would the Temple of Light step forward to help them ovee their difficulties. It was one of the organizations that were absolutely neutral and highly prestigious.
Moreover, the strong individuals who chose to leave the Temple of Light were no longer subject to its control and could freely decide their own future path.
In short, Joshuas student days were spent mainly between the Temple of Light and the Noble Academy.
As a result, as a high-ranking Sacred Sword Priest in the Temple, she learned some superficial information about the Era of nkness and the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God during her time studying at the Royal Capitals Temple of Light.
However, she didnt have ess to more secrets since she chose to leave the Temple of Light after reaching adulthood.
I didnt expect this young man who has just arrived to know so much more than I do, and his analyses and conjectures all make sense
Realizing this, Joshuas long eyshes shed, and the admiration in her eyes toward Leo Ray became increasingly difficult to suppress.
After talking with Hero King Caesar, I clearly understood that the first threat that people on thisnd will face in the near future is the unknown terrible catastrophe, and after that, the real danger will just be beginning.
The most crucial point is that all these events C the nk Age three thousand years ago, the absence of gods favor, the disappearance of the Chosen Son of God, our sudden arrival as Otherworldly Lords, and even the uing catastrophe C apparently have some underlying connection.
This is absolutely beyond doubt.
As he saw the still somewhat dazed Joshua, Leo Ray nodded and continued pacing slowly, saying, In summary, my goal is only one thing, to build high walls and gather food on thisnd, and use all possible living forces to confront the impending crisis of catastrophe.
At this point, Leo Rays tone became even heavier, Only then can we resist the terrible disaster. And the time left for us is running short. When the crisises, Im afraid the whole world will suffer a devastating blow.
He then exined his n to support Ariel Watson to ascend the Coldme Throne to Joshua again.
At this time, listening to Leo Rays words, the shock on Joshuas delicate face became more apparent.
She muttered in her heart, Our future ruler of Coldme is still fighting a ridiculous power struggle, turning the entire Royal Capital into a battlefieldparable to purgatory.
And this man from the Otherworld is thinking far beyond that limit, isnt he?
On the other side, watching Joshuas bewildered andplex expression, Leo Ray stepped forward again.
With a serious expression, he said sternly, Joshua, I need your help to aplish all of this better!
Upon hearing this, Joshuas slender body couldnt help but tremble.
At this moment, recalling how Leo Ray had saved her in the Dragons Lair Underground Square, seeing Rocky, her enemy in a dazed state not far away, and having listened to the words just now
Joshua took a deep breath, calming her slightly throbbing heart.
Then, without any hesitation, she directly knelt before Leo Ray, her face stern and serious, I, Joshua Dawn, swear to serve the Lord with my life!
Chapter 509: 379: O.B’s Loyalty_2
Chapter 509: Chapter 379: O.Bs Loyalty_2
Very well, lets begin the contract signing.
With a slight nod, Leo Rays mind moved, and the Tier 4 Recruitment Order he had obtained earlier appeared in his palm.
For a moment, the golden glow emitted from the metallic Recruitment Order enveloped Leo Ray in a faintyer of light.
Like that, a moment passed.
A familiar prompt soon reached Leo Rays ears.
[Congrattions, Tier 4 five-Star Sacred Sword Priest, Joshua Dawn, has signed a Master-Servant Contract with you and has be your new subordinate!]
Hearing this, Leo Ray gently helped Joshua up while opening the others attribute panel.
[Name: Joshua]
[upation: Sacred Sword Priest]
[Level: Tier 4 five-Star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill 1: Holy Light Incantation Active (Light attribute group healing spell, can rapidly restore targets wounds and purify negative effects)]
[Skill 2: Holy Light Judgement Active (Light attribute group magic attack, inflicting blind effect, outstanding on dark attribute targets)]
[Skill 3: Sacred Sword Light sh Active (Light attribute physical single target attack, inflicting blind effect, outstanding on dark attribute targets)]
[Skill 4: Apostle of Light Passive (Significantly increases damage when using light attribute spells or physical attacks)]
Closing the attribute panel, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction, his face revealing a joyful expression.
With this, the number of Tier 4 powerhouses under hismand had increased once again.
And the number of Tier 4 powerhouses, after Gideon ck, Scarlett, Serena rk, and Ste rk, had reached five!
I have to admit, my strength is bing more and more formidable.
Thinking of this, Leo Rays joy could not be contained.
With a moments hesitation, he turned to face the respectfully standing Queens General beside him and asked, Joshua, what do you know about Giant Axe General Burt?
My Lord, I have been acquainted with Giant Axe General Burt for several years.
After giving a respectful bow to Leo Ray, Joshua smoothed the long hair at his ear and responded, In truth, Burt didnt originally hail from Coldme, but instead came from the small mountain kingdom of Crystal Kingdom, located at the border between Coldme and Sacred Night.
Bowing slightly to Leo Ray, Joshua continued, As a result, even though he has fought for Coldme for decades with great achievements, he still finds it difficult to gain the approval of the Coldme traditional nobles.
Saying this, Joshua helplessly shook his head, As for other matters concerning Burt, since he has never mentioned his origin, I am not clear about it.
I see.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a thoughtful expression.
He knew a bit about the Crystal Kingdom.
Due to its remote location within the mountain range, the small human country had barrennd and virtually no strategic value.
The area of the country was, at most, the size of a single medium-torge city.
Thus, even though it bordered tworge human empires, Coldme and Sacred Night,
it had still managed to survive the countless wars that constantly ravaged thend.
Because even if it were to be conquered, there would be no substantial gain.
No wonder Giant Axe General Burt, with his white hair and old age, is just like Joshua, and not well-received. Everything makes sense now.
As Leo Ray thought of this,
on the other side, Joshua, still maintaining his bowing posture, began to exin further.
Through Joshuas subsequent words, Leo Ray learned
that although Burt and Joshua were both among the eight Kingdom Generals, in charge of an army of ten thousand soldiers of the Coldme Royal Family,
they appeared to be infinitely prestigious with great power in their hands, but in reality, due to their recent promotion,Having a history of more than 600 years, Coldmes traditional nobles couldnt even be considered among the new nobles with a century-long lineage.
As a result, they had been constantly marginalized by the other six Kingdom Generals and other important officials.
This made the two not only unwee by the royal family but also subject to constant vignce against them.
This situation was not so obvious when the old king was still well, but after the old king fell ill, it became increasingly intense.
With a sigh, Joshua shook his head, saying: At the very beginning of the struggle in the Royal Capital, Burt and I were the first to be stripped of our military power.
Left with no choice, we had to follow Princess Ariel to Cyan Town to avoid the limelight. Otherwise, not only the princess herself, but also our lives would be in danger.
Exactly as I deduced.
With a slight nod, Leo Ray asked, What was the situation in the Royal Capital before you left?
My Lord, since the old king is still alive, themand of the eight royal legions is still in the hands of the old king, and no one can easily mobilize them.
Joshua nodded to Leo Ray, saying: The two oldest Kingdom Generals still serve the old king and maintain absolute neutrality.
As a result, even the bloodthirsty princes have no way to deal with them.
After all, one of these two old generals is a terrifying Tier 5 powerhouse capable of subduing the nation, and the other is at the peak of Tier 4, just one step away from bing a Tier 5 powerhouse.
The most crucial point is that both of them have long-standing reputations in Coldme Kingdom, both in the court and in the kingdom, as highly prestigious figures.
After a brief pause, Joshua lowered his brows and added: At present, the three princes fighting for the throne cannot openly mobilize the forces of the Eight Royal Legions.
However, ording to my understanding, there have been many small-scale conflicts within the Royal Capital, all involving soldiers of several legions, so it seems that the other four Kingdom Generals have also chosen their sides.
I see, there is indeed a great uproar in the Royal Capital.
Sighing, Leo Ray nodded slightly, indicating for the other party to go on.
Through Joshuas further description, Leo Ray learned that the eldest prince, who had the support of Coldmes traditional nobility, was the most powerful, and under hismand was another Tier 5 powerhouse loyal to the Coldme Royal Family.
As for the second prince, who had the support of Coldmes new nobility, he was also not to be underestimated.
The youngest fourth prince, however, was the most mysterious.
Although he only had the support of a few super-wealthy merchants, the powerful men under hismand were still able topete with the other two more powerful princes.
My Lord, rumor has it that there is a hidden mysterious force behind the fourth prince, helping him.
At this time, Joshua spoke without hesitation.
The youngest fourth prince is the most mysterious?
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.
ording to the clues gathered earlier, since the eldest prince had guidance from an expert, it was spected that the prince who had joined the mysterious organization might be him.
However, analyzing the situation now, it seemed that the possibility of the fourth prince being involved was even greater.
I have to say, things are getting more and more interesting.
With a slight lifting of eyebrows, Leo Ray continued thinking: In any case, our next goal is to go to Crystal Kingdom and learn more about Giant Axe General Burt.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray said to Joshua, Alright Joshua, your enemy is right before your eyes, and the rest is up to you to deal with.
As youmand! Thank you, My Lord!
Upon hearing this, Joshuas face turned solemn, and he slowly drew the sword from his waist and walked towards Rocky.
Meanwhile, Leo Ray left the reception room temporarily with his other subordinates.
A momentter, Joshua emerged from the room, and with gratitude, he knelt down before Leo Ray, saying, Thank you, My Lord, for helping me avenge my grievance. From now on, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, without any hesitation!
Leo Ray nodded slightly, and after instructing Scarlett to clean up the reception room,
his eyes lit up as he remembered the Storage Ring hed obtained from Rocky not long ago.
Chapter 510 - 380: The Lord and the Traveling Merchant_1
Chapter 510: Chapter 380: The Lord and the Traveling Merchant_1
At this moment, a faint spatial fluctuation urred, as Leo Rays mind stirred.
A storage ring with an emerald-green crystal appeared in his palm.
Without any hesitation, Leo Ray directly opened the rings attribute column.
[Name: Azure Shadow Eye] (Unbound)
[Grade: Tier 3 ? Excellent (Blue)]
[Defensive Strength: None]
[Additional Effect: Space on Finger ? Extreme Capable of storing and taking out any object without life force at will, with a spatial capacity of 50 cubic meters]
[Note: This storage ringes from the Forest Elf Race, finely crafted by their space element Great Mage.
Its previous owner seemed to have left a lot of valuable items inside.]
Not bad, a Tier 3 quality storage ring, huh?
Seeing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and muttered to himself, I must have a close lookter to see whats inside.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray turned around and spoke to the Queens General and the Princesss personal maid, Joshua and Celeste Reiss, who were respectfully standing beside him, Alright, Joshua, Celeste Reiss.
You two leave first. Everything should remain as usual until I say otherwise. If theres anything, just contact me.
Understood! Please rest assured, Lord! Upon hearing this, both of them bowed simultaneously and then left.
Suddenly, Leo Rays mind talk prompt rang out abruptly.
As he answered, Lindas voice came through, My Lord, the President of Cyan Town Commerce Association, Kombu, requests an audience.
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but raise his eyebrows.
He thought to himself, Ever since we parted ways with Mirage in the Ancient Battlefield Ruins, I havent had the chance to see this guy again due to my packed schedule.
However, the 1,000 units of White Jade Ore I got from him at the time did allow my Light Healing House to level up to tier 2 directly.
Considering everything that happened before, his contribution to my territory is quite noteworthy.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray immediately replied to Linda, Let him wait for me in the Conference Hall. I will be there shortly.
After saying this, Leo Ray nodded to his subordinates and started walking.
A short whileter, as Leo Ray entered the Conference Halls door,
Linda and Kombu, who had been waiting there, immediately greeted him.
Greetings to the City Lord!
Seeing the still ornately dressed and seemingly obese Kombu kneeling on one knee, bowing his head deeply to Leo Ray.
President Kombu, I have heard about your matter.
Signaling for the potbellied middle-aged merchant to stand up, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, Hows your health after encountering the Mirage?
Thank you for your concern, City Lord!
Meanwhile, the now upright Kombu, his greasy face filled with ttery, quickly replied, In response to the City Lord,
Ive been feeling a bit dizzy but nothing serious. As a result, upon returning to Cyan Town, I had to rest in bed for two days.
I wasnt able to pay my respects to the City Lord at the earliest opportunity, please forgive me!
No worries. Leo Ray waved his hand and nodded his head.
Thank you, City Lord! By the way, I have already stored the White Jade Ore I brought in the City Lord Mansions treasury, please check!
Kombu chuckled before continuing somewhat sheepishly, Unfortunately, during the process of being caught in the Mirage, a small portion of White Jade Ore was lost.
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but smile wryly.
That small portion of lost White Jade Ore was, of course, the part he took at the time.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray contemted for a moment before asking the middle-aged merchant, So, President Kombu, where exactly did you find those White Jade Ores?
As a level 2mon resource, White Jade Ore is one of the key materials for upgrading the Miracle Building and Light Healing House.
However, Coldme Kingdom is not a producer of White Jade Ore, making this resource difficult to find.
Therefore, it would be of great benefit to the territory ifrge quantities of White Jade Ore could be found to continue upgrading the Light Healing House.
In reply to the City Lord, this is how it happened.
On the other side, Kombu rubbed his chubby hands and respectfully replied, I have a merchant friend from Crystal Kingdom, and I bought the White Jade Ore from him.
As for the specific method of obtaining it, he didnt borate.
However, I believe that this White Jade Ore might have been mined from the Crystal Kingdom itself.
After trading with me, this person has returned to Crystal Kingdom.
I see. Hearing this, Leo Ray revealed a thoughtful expression.
He muttered to himself, As it happens, the next step for me is to go to Crystal Kingdom to further investigate the information about Giant Axe General Burt.
Using Kombus merchant friend as a breakthrough point seems like a good choice.
I could also figure out the source of the White Jade Ore.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray asked in detail about Kombus merchant friends information.
Kombu, too, spared no words in giving a detailed introduction.
Suddenly, it seemed as if Kombu remembered something, his eyes lit up,
He bowed to Leo Ray and said, By the way, my Lord, when I left the Mirage, I inadvertently found this!
Chapter 511 - 380: The Lord and the Traveling Merchant_2
Chapter 511: Chapter 380: The Lord and the Traveling Merchant_2
After saying that, Kombu cautiously took out a fist-sized round crystal from his bosom.
Upon closer inspection, the crystal was deep red, crystal clear, and shining brilliantly like a red gem.
As soon as he received the crystal from the other party, Leo Ray recognized it at first sight and couldnt help but blurt out, Is that actually an Illusion Crystal?
From his previous understanding, Leo Ray knew clearly that such Illusion Crystals used for recording purposes were extremely rare.
His side had previously obtained one on the Ancient Ship.
It was precisely because of that Illusion Crystal embedded in the huge statue on the ship that they were able to be there and witness the final moments of the Ancient Ship before the disaster urred.
My Lord, it is indeed an Illusion Crystal, said Gideon ck, who pushed up his gold-rimmed sses while showing an astonished expression and slightly bowing, Illusion Crystals are indeed produced in the Illusion Realm, which is the only way to obtain them, but the possibility is very small.
It seems like this is a blessing in disguise. After nodding slightly, Leo Ray opened the properties tab of the Illusion Crystal.
[Name: Illusion Crystal]
[Resource Level: 5 (Rare)]
[Specification: 10cm]
[Purity: A+]
[Energy: 100%]
[Remark: This is a brand new Illusion Crystal. As long as a small amount of energy is injected into it, the recording function can be activated regardless of whether the holder is an Illusionist. If arge amount of energy is injected into it, the recorded situation can be reproduced instantly within a certain area by forming an Illusion Realm.]
Not bad, not bad at all.
Nodding in satisfaction, Leo Ray put the Illusion Crystal away and praised the middle-aged merchant, President Kombu, youve made a great contribution this time.
After saying that, Leo Ray fell into contemtion, secretly thinking, I must say, this Kombu has proven to be loyal. I might as well take this opportunity to make him my direct subordinate. That way, as the President of Cyan Town Commerce Association, he can better assist Linda and Mason Banks.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said to the middle-aged merchant in front of him, President Kombu, I believe youve guessed my true identity by now, right?
After that, Leo Ray briefly introduced his situation to Kombu and offered him an olive branch.
Upon hearing Leo Rays words, Kombu, who had already nned to do this, showed an ecstatic expression right away.
He didnt hesitate at all and knelt down in front of Leo Ray once again, saying excitedly, I, Kombu Brown, swear to serve my Lord loyally!
Very well, lets start signing the contract. A Tier 1 Recruitment Order then appeared in Leo Rays hand, emitting a faint light.
In just a short time,
The familiar prompt sounded in Leo Rays ears.
[Congrattions, Tier 1 Two-star Traveling Merchant Kombu Brown has signed a Master-Servant Contract with you and be your new subordinate!]
Next, after helping the other party up, Leo Ray immediately opened his Attribute Column.
[Name: Kombu]
[Profession: Traveling Merchant]
[Rank: Tier 1 Two-star]
[Loyalty: 100]
[Skill One: Master of Mental Arithmetic Passive (Significantly increases mental arithmetic speed)]
[Skill Two: Carriage Driving Mastery Passive (Moderately increases carriage driving skill)]
As expected of a professional merchant, not one battle skill. Leo Ray couldnt help but smirk.
Then, after a brief hesitation, he gave Kombu a Storage Ring, ten Qi Condensing Pills, and a Tier 3 Short Sword.
He then said, Kombu, theres no need to exin the Storage Ring and Tier 3 Short Sword.You should know the Qi Condensing Pill better than I do, right?
Back then, when we were in the dense forest, you were the first to give me one.
With a faint smile at the middle-aged merchant, Leo Ray continued, As my subordinate, not only should you excel in your field, but your strength should also improve.
Only then can you better protect yourself.
These ten Qi Condensing Pills are enough to help you cultivate to the Tier 2 Nine-Star level.
In short, consider these as my wee gift.
Taking the items handed over by Leo Ray, Kombu was already too excited to verbalize his gratitude. He just knelt on one knee again and bowed his head deeply to Leo Ray.
As a professional merchant, he naturally knew the value of these items!
Keep in mind that Kombu had almost depleted all his funds and expended great effort to finally get his hands on a single Qi Condensing Pill.
And now he was receiving ten at once?!
Most importantly, Storage Rings are top-tier items that only aristocrats are entitled and have ess to.
I didnt expect that, as amon civilian, one day Id also get my hands on such a dream treasure!
As Kombu was overjoyed,
Leo Ray turned to Linda and said, Have Rhizoma Drynariae take some time to personally guide Kombu in his cultivation. With Kombus full assistance, Cyan Townsmerce will surely thrive even more.
Understood! Please be assured, my Lord! Linda immediately bowed and nodded in response.
On the other hand, Linda stepped forward, bowed slightly to Leo Ray, and said, My Lord, I have another matter to report to you.
Oh? Whats the matter? Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and asked while helping Kombu up from the marble floor.
My Lord, weve found some clues to the location of the Azure Pterosaur habitat, Linda said, still in a bowing position.
Is that so? Where is it? Hearing this, Leo Rays face lit up with a hint of joy.
Without a doubt, once they found the home of the Azure Pterosaurs,
Thebat power of the ten Tier 3 Winged Dragon Knights under hismand would be greatly enhanced.
Furthermore, these Tier 3 sky knights would far surpass ordinary ground cavalry in both speed and strategy.
It would be an effective way to further strengthen the overall power of the territory.
My Lord, the nearest Azure Pterosaur habitat to us is actually in the mountain range near the Crystal Kingdom! Linda replied with a crisp voice.
I see.
Leo Ray nodded slightly and fell into deep thought: Giant Axe General Burts updated information, the location of the White Jade Ore, and now the location of the Azure Pterosaur habitat.
All point to the remote small country on the border between Coldme and Saint Night, the Crystal Kingdom, huh?
It seems that our trip there is imminent.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray immediately asked Linda and Kombu, How much do you two know about the affairs of the Crystal Kingdom?
My Lord, Ist year Ive been to the Crystal Kingdom for business numerous times. It was at that time that I met the merchant friend I mentioned earlier.
Bowing slightly to Leo Ray, Kombu said reverently, This small country located in the mountains has very scarce food resources and is not suitable for farming.
Therefore, they can only rely on us merchants for transportation and hunting demon beasts for sustenance.
However, as a tradeoff, the ore veins there are rtively richer, but still onlyparatively so, with no important rare resources.
The mined minerals are mostly traded for food to maintain the normal operation of the kingdom.
Not too different from what I know. Is there anything else worth noting?
Leo Ray nodded slightly, gazing at the two standing respectfully before him, and continued to inquire.
My Lord, several years ago, when I was participating in the trial for the Sanders Family, I lived in the Crystal Kingdom for almost a month.
However, one night, something strange happened.
On the other side, Lindas eyes seemed lost in her memories, recounting her experiences.
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray showed a curious expression.
Chapter 512: 381: Mysterious Land_1
Chapter 512: Chapter 381: Mysterious Land_1
I remember at that time, I was resting in an inn at the south of Crystal Kingdoms city.
However, just when I was lying on the bed, ready to fall asleep, the entire inn suddenly shook slightly.
And there was a sound like a hard object scraping the wall.
However, the somewhat irritating noise and sudden tremor were only fleeting.
Moreover, at that time, I hadnt reached Tier 3, so I was rtively weak.
So, to be cautious, I didnt leave the room immediately.
Linda, still in a bowed position, described to Leo Ray: However, when I asked the innkeeper and the other staff about it the next morning,
everyone looked bewildered, as if nothing had happened.
Oh? Something like that happened?
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but show a surprised expression, then asked, Apart from this, were there any abnormal energy fluctuations or anything else worth noting?
My Lord, there was nothing.
Linda shook her head helplessly, then replied: Besides, I was the only outsider staying at the inn that night, so I couldnt ask any other guests for verification.
As a result, the matter was left unresolved.
At this point, Linda hesitated for a moment and added: The reason I remember this incident so clearly is that the innkeeper, as well as the other staff members,
had obviously unnatural expressions, yet deliberately kept silent. It couldnt help but make people suspicious.
So it seems, Crystal Kingdom is indeed a bit strange
On the other side, Kombu seemed to recall something and chimed in: Because this remote small country is located in the mountains and is uninhabited,
besides us merchants and asional travelers, few people set foot there.
The inhabitants are even more unwilling tomunicate with outsiders and are somewhat hostile to others from outside.
However, my merchant friend is an exception.
After speaking, Kombu thought for a moment, and then added, By the way, My Lord, there is one more weird aspect of this Crystal Kingdom.
When they settled the payment with us, the Coldme merchants, they only used Gold Dragons, willing to pay extra and refuse to ept Silver Dragons and Copper Dragons as change.
It seems that Crystal Kingdom is indeed a quite mysterious country.
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and instructed: Now that its not toote, weve just passed noon,
after we finish a simple lunch, lets head directly to the Crystal Kingdom.
Yes, My Lord! Upon hearing this, the subordinates immediately bowed and responded simultaneously.
So, after having some sandwiches and desserts in the spacious banquet hall of the City Lord Mansion,
Leo Raymanded Gideon ck to quickly return to the territory and bring Sean and the other ten Tier 3 Winged Dragon Knights to Cyan Town.
Since the destination of this trip, Crystal Kingdom, has an Azure Pterosaur habitat,
the most expedient way is to let Sean and the others directly tame their new mounts on the spot.
While waiting, Leo Ray also took a detailed look at the storage ring left by Rocky.
In it, besides nearly 500,000 Gold Dragons and some ordinary valuable art pieces,
Leo Ray found a Tier 4 Knight Sword, a set of Tier 4 te Armor, and the Tier 4 Short Sword he initially removed from Rocky, a total of three Tier 4 Equipment.
And 10 Tier 2 Healing Magic Medicines.
Without hesitation, he began to upgrade.
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Sanctuary Knight Sword has been upgraded to Tier 5 Weapon: Shining Sword!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Weapon: Storm Short de has been upgraded to Tier 4 Weapon: Storm Short de 100 des!]
[Congrattions, your Tier 4 Armor: Brave Ones te Armor has been upgraded to Tier 5 Armor: Dragon yers Treasure Armor!]
The 10 Tier 2 Healing Magic Medicines were upgraded to 500 Tier 2 Healing Magic Medicines and 5 Tier-3 Healing Magic Medicines.
Wow, another two Tier 5 Equipment?
After listening to the familiar prompt, Leo Ray immediately opened the Attribute Column of the new Tier 5 Equipment with a delighted surprise.
[Name: Radiant Sword]
[Grade: Tier 5?Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Attack Strength: ]
[Additional Effect One: Radiance Significantly increases damage when using light attribute skills]
[Additional Effect Two: Holy Glory 100% additional damage to dark attribute enemies]
[Note: This light weapon has been blessed by the Holy One, crafted by a Tier 5 Master Forger.
A Sacred Light Gem is iid on the hilt, which significantly increases the damage of light attribute skills.]
[Name: Dragonyer Treasure Armor]
[Grade: Tier 5?Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Defense Strength: ]
[Additional Effect One: Dragonbane 80% additional damage against the Dragon n]
[Additional Effect Two: Magical Resistance?Absolute Halve damage from magic spells below Tier 5]
[Note: This top-grade te armor is made of lightweight and rare Skyfall Steel, making it as light and flexible as light armor.
Moreover, during the forging process, the anti-dragon qualities are enhanced by using dragon-fearing Abyssal Magma for quenching.
Also, the Tier 5 Dragon Scale has been added, further improving the armors magic resistance.]
Chapter 513: 381: Mysterious Land_2
Chapter 513: Chapter 381: Mysterious Land_2
With the attribute columns of the two brand-new Tier 5 equipment closed, a touch of joy couldnt help but appear on Leo Rays face.
He pondered in his heart: Ill leave this Tier 5 Knight Sword to the newly subdued Joshua.
As for the Tier 5 te Armor, theres no need to say more, it naturally belongs to Taylor.
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray, who was in the quiet reception room, called the burly man to his side, handed him the dazzling armor, and smiled: Taylor, as Ive said before,
I will give you a fitting armor. You can wear this set for now.
In the near future, we will definitely obtain more and better equipment.
Thank you very much, my lord. Im willing to go through fire and water for you!
Receiving the equipment from Leo Ray, the excitement on Taylors face was beyond words.
He kneeled with one leg on the ground, deeply bowing his head to Leo Ray.
Alright, give it a try. After helping him up, Leo Ray gently nodded.
Understood, my lord, please wait a moment. Immediately, Taylor stored the heavy armor into his storage ring with a movement of his mind.
In the next second, when the armor appeared again, it was already worn on Taylors burly body.
For a moment, the exquisite dark gold armor with ck patterns shone brightly, making Taylors imposing aura even more sharp and intimidating.
Not bad, very suitable, Leo Ray said with satisfaction, then fell into contemtion and thought to himself: Speaking of which,
using a storage ring to directly change equipment? Ive indeed heard Jasper Richardson mention it beforethis special way of changing.
Only the owner of a storage space can master this skill, summoning the armor directly onto their body.
I have to say, its very convenient.
After all, wearing armor all the time is sometimes inconvenient for activities.
Moreover, it can hide ones strength better this way.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray nodded at Taylor again, and said: Alright, lets go out together and see if everyone else has arrived. Its time for us to set off for Crystal Kingdom.
As you order, my lord! Excited, Taylor immediately changed back into his normal attire and followed Leo Ray out of the room.
Soon after, Gideon ck brought Sean and the other ten Tier 3 Pterosaur Knights before Leo Ray.
Greetings, my lord! On the other side, the ten lightly-armored Pterosaur Knights bowed and deeply lowered their heads to Leo Ray.
No need for formalities.
After waving his hand, Leo Ray handed the Invisibility Cloak and Concealment Ring to the newly arrived Sean and others, saying with a smile: This time, you will finally get your own dragon mounts.
Thank you, my lord! Hearing this, joy appeared on the faces of Sean and the others, and they all spoke excitedly.
Soon after, Leo Ray gave each of the Pterosaur Knights a Haste Pill.
Currently, among the ten Pterosaur Knights, only Sean was a Tier 3 five-star veteran powerhouse the other nine were all Tier 3 three-star.
They would certainlyg behind the rest of their own powerhouses in terms of speed, and a Haste Pill, which could increase movement speed, was just what they needed to make up for that gap.
Alright, no time to lose. Let Linda lead the way, and lets set off, he said soon after.
As Leo Ray nodded, he mounted the White Wolf and turned to his respectful subordinates: Target, Crystal Kingdom!
As youmand, my lord! Hearing his orders, all his subordinates bowed and saluted together.
In no time,
the scene before Leo Rays eyes had be an endless green in.
This time, besides the previous Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, Bianca White, Abigail, and Amelia, there will also be Linda as the guide, and Sean leading the Pterosaur Knight squad.
At this moment, Leo Ray, riding on the White Wolf, lowered his body and felt the howling wind against his face, pondering in his heart: Adding myself, that makes eighteen people in total.
Moreover, there are 1 Tier 5 powerhouse, 2 Tier 4 powerhouses, 5 Tier 3 pinnacle powerhouses, and 11 Tier 3 powerhouses.
I have to say, our team is bing increasingly powerful.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray, riding against the fierce winds, opened his territory interface to check the information.
[Lords Mansion Lv: 7 (Daily reward: 3 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders or 18 Tier 1 Recruitment Orders, 1 Returning Crystal)]

Chapter 514: 381: Mysterious Land_3
Chapter 514: Chapter 381: Mysterious Land_3
My direct subordinates have reached 932 people?
Looking at the information on the territory interface, Leo Ray first opened the summary interface for [Poption].
[Lord x1 Self]
[Tier 5 Powerhouse x1 Taylor]

Not bad, not bad. Besides Taylor, the Tier 5 Powerhouse, and the five Tier 4 Powerhouses such as Gideon ck.
Taking into ount themander Tier 3 Powerhouses, the number of my direct Tier 3 Powerhouses has reached 53.
They are spread across Cyan Town, Ma Town, Maron City, Mystara City, and Redarrow City, these are my territories.
A few are distributed in Golin City, Viennas City, and the camp of Ariel, the Fifth Princess of Coldme Kingdom.
While observing the data on the poption summary interface, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction.
Next, after closing the poption summary interface, Leo Rays gaze fell on the two subjugated tribes, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Muttering to himself, he said, Of course, apart from the above-mentioned forces,
There are also seven Tier 3 Powerhouses in my two subjugated tribes.
They are Belinda Wright from the Half-Elf Tribe and Bianca White, n Chief Finn Stanley, Lucas Harper, and three other elders, as well as Owen Montgomery from the Werewolf Tribe.
With this, adding myself, the number of Tier 3 Powerhouses has reached 61 people.
Its almost on par with the number of Tier 3 Powerhouses that Coldme and Saint Night invested in the border battlefield at the beginning.
Realizing this, a hint of joy appeared on Leo Rays face.
However, after a brief moment, his expression turned serious again as he continued to ponder, Of course, the forces deployed by Coldme and Saint Night on the border battlefield are just the tip of the iceberg for their overall strength.However,pared to the me back then, the progress Ive made during this time is already quite significant.
At this point, Leo Ray opened another two detail pages of the vassal tribes and continued to check: Currently, stationed in my territory.
Apart from the two most elite Tier 2 squads in these two tribes.
There are also two backup Tier 1 Archer squads inside the Half-elf barrier.
At the new residence of the werewolf tribe, there are five Tier 1 Warrior squads and four backup Tier 1 Warrior squads.
Furthermore, after I have given Finn Stanley arge amount of Qi Condensing Pills,
The five Tier 1 Warrior squads of the werewolf tribe can soon all be promoted to Tier 2 Warrior squads.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray closed the vassal tribes detail page and his eyes fell on the territorial column of the territory interface.
He muttered to himself: At this stage, excluding the territory itself located in the Demonic Shadow Forest and the two vassal tribes,
I actually control five towns.
The closest to my territory are Cyan Town, Mn Town, and Ma Town.
These three towns can form a defensive line, ensuring the safety of my territory.
The defense troop numbers of the towns are as follows: 3 light infantry brigades for Cyan Town, totaling 3000 people.
2 light infantry brigades, 1 light cavalry brigade for Mn Town, totaling 3000 people.
2 light infantry brigades for Ma Town, amounting to 2000 people.
As for Redarrow City, which was just cleaned up today, the mercenaries have yet to form abat force, so lets not discuss it for now.
That is to say, the total defensive troops that can be mobilized around my territory amount to 8000 people.
In addition, there are 2 light infantry brigades and 1 light cavalry brigade in the Mystara City, on the other side of the Pine Sound Range, totaling 3000 people.
In total, there are 11,000 soldiers under my jurisdiction, which has reached the scale of a legion.
Realizing this, Leo Ray, who was galloping on the back of a wolf, let out a sigh of relief and revealed a gratified smile.
He secretly thought to himself: Although my strength is still somewhat inadequatepared to the Coldme Royal Family, which owns eight legions,
Aside from the defensive forces of Cyan Town, these defense troops are my hidden forces, not revealed in the open. They will surely give my enemy a crushing blow at the crucial moment.
Furthermore, those eight legions arent all united.
Once I take down Giant Axe General Burt and even Ariel, I will naturally obtain more information.
Seeing this, Leo Ray closed the territory interface and began to refocus his attention on the scene in front of him.
At this moment, their team of 18 people, under Lindas guidance,
Had already moved from the vast green in to a mixed area of hills and mountains.
As for this area, Leo Ray was not unfamiliar with it.
At that time, they had passed through this area on their way to the border battlefield.
It seems that our destination, the Crystal Kingdom, is not far away.
At this moment, as they dashed forward,
Leo Ray closely held onto the white fluffy fur on the wolfs back, squinting his eyes and muttering to himself: So, let me take a good look.
At this mysterious kingdom located amongst the mountains, almost isted from the world, and see what makes it so extraordinary.
Chapter 515: 382: Arrival and Questions_1
Chapter 515: Chapter 382: Arrival and Questions_1
And so, guided by Linda, they traveled swiftly.
A city nestled in a mountain range came into view for the group.
From a peak, Leo Ray looked down at the city below and noticed immediately.
This rarely connected city, or rather, an independent nation, was quite unique.
Rows of exquisite stone and wood buildings, one or multiple stories, nestled between lush green mountains and clear waters, much like a utopia.
A sight of well-arranged beauty, too much to take in at once.
Meanwhile, the steep cliffs all around formed a natural city wall, enveloping the entire citypletely.
However, in the narrow gap between the mountains near Leo Rays feet, there was a towering passageway made of stones.
gs fluttered and figures loomed atop the passway, and asionally a group of merchants and mercenaries could be seen slowly passing through.
That must be the entrance to the Crystal Kingdom.
With that, Leo Ray shifted his gaze and continued observing.
At the far end of the vast city, barely visible, there was arge, somewhat ancient castle built halfway up the slope.
Upon closer examination, around the castle, there was a winding protective city river, surrounded by many tall pine trees.
Under the dazzling afternoon sun.
The mottled castle, the green pines, and the babbling river together formed a picturesque scene that was pleasing to the senses.
It seems that this is the City Lord Mansion of the Crystal Kingdom, or rather, it would be more urate to call it the Grand Duke Mansion.
Just as he took back his gaze, several sharp cries entered Leo Rays ears.
Following the sound, amidst the clouds and mist where the sky met the mountain in the distance.
Severalrge dark brown flying demon beasts appeared in everyones sight.
Gazing intently, these flying demon beasts were huge and formidable, with sharp beaks and vibrantbs on their heads, very eye-catching.
However, what drew even more attention were their slender, membrane wings that were several timesrger than their bodies, much like small gliders, giving an immense sense of awe.
My Lord, its really the Azure Pterosaurs!
Seeing this, Sean and the other Pterosaur Knights beside him couldnt help but show a hint of tion.
Their excited expressions were as if they had encountered long-lost friends.
Noticing this, Leo Ray recalled the conversation he had with Sean and the others during lunch in the territoryst time.
These Pterosaur Knights, the reason they could tame the Azure Pterosaurs who were known for their wild and untamed nature and formidable strength.
Was because they were selected by those in power while they were still young.
After putting on essories that were imbued with illusion and several types of camouge spells, they were thrown directly into the nest of female Azure Pterosaurs that had just given birth.
There, they lived side by side with the Pterosaurs, eating and sleeping together for nearly a year.
It wasnt until the young Azure Pterosaurs began to learn to fly that they were taken out.
After repeatedly going through several years like this,pletely imbued with the scent of the Azure Pterosaurs and thoroughly understanding their habits.
These Pterosaur knights who grew up with the young Pterosaurs, finally gained the ability to tame the Azure Pterosaurs.
Of course, in the process, the weak and those who met various idents and died were not a few.
Or rather, those like Sean who sessfully became Pterosaur Knights were the minority.
Upon remembering this, seeing the anticipation in Sean and the others faces, Leo Ray smiled and said, Alright, lets divide into two groups.
You ten can go directly to tame your new mounts, while the rest of us will head to the Crystal Kingdom.
If anything happens, contact me through Mind Talk.
Yes, my Lord! Upon hearing this, Sean and the other ten Tier 3 powerhouses immediately saluted with their fists.
Oh, and one more thing.
Looking at the ordinary Tier 2 longswords still on the waists of the ten, Leo Ray sent a mentalmand and handed each of them a Tier 3 Knight Sword.
On the other hand, after showing their gratitude to Leo Ray in surprise,
the members of Seans Pterosaur Knight Squad turned into meteors and disappeared in front of the other subordinates.
I asked earlier: these ten have their te armor andnces in the storage ring I gave to Sean before.
So when they appear next time, theyll be a fully armed Pterosaur Knight Squad.
At this thought, Leo Ray turned to Taylor and the others and said, Alright, its time for us to go down the mountain.
Lets take a good look at what makes this secluded mountain nation special.
And so, before long.
Wearing Illusion Cloaks, Leo Ray and Linda blended in as traveling merchants and followed a wagon loaded with goods, slowly entering the city.
The reason Leo Ray mingled with the merchant team was, of course, because the leading merchant had been bribed with the cost of a dozen Gold Dragons.
As for Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, and other subordinates, they still hid in the Invisibility Cloak and closely followed Leo Rays side.
We just happened toe across this merchant team earlier.
In order not to attract attention, this is undoubtedly the best way to enter the city.
Chapter 516: 382: Arrival and Doubts_2
Chapter 516: Chapter 382: Arrival and Doubts_2
At this moment, Leo Ray, who was in the middle of the caravan, looked at the sharp-eyed city guards beside him.
He murmured to himself in his heart, After all, this city is just like Keh said.
It is not particrly weing to foreign visitors, and I still need to make myself known, to find Kehs merchant friend.
Thinking of this, Leo Ray who had already stepped into the city, refocused his attention on the surrounding scenery.
On both sides of the street were neatly arranged shops and eateries, bustling with peopleing and going, looking almost no different from a regr city.
However, the exteriors of these buildings were quite different from the ornate andplex Gothic style of most cities in the Coldme Kingdom.
No rounded pointed arches or ribbed vaults were present, but rather square, straight lines with sharp edges, extremely in and unadorned.
Even the rooftops were sturdy, triangr structures,plemented by the green trees andwns nearby, giving off an exotic ambiance.
Its a city with quite distinctive features.
Seeing this, Leo Ray looked at the bustling locals and continued to observe.
These pedestrians included men, women, old and young, and they all differed significantly from the foreign merchants around Leo Ray in terms of temperament and attire.
Not only dressed inly, but even their faces revealed satisfied and joyful smiles.
It seems that the residents here are indeed content and prosperous.
Noticing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but ponder, After all, although the vegetation here is dense, thend is too steep, a typical mountainous terrain not suitable for nting crops.
Moreover, ording to Keh and Linda, there isnt any pir industry.
Most of the foodstuff has to be transported from the outside, so its difficult to be self-sufficient, let alone other daily necessities.
Furrowing his brows slightly, Leo Ray murmured to himself, By all rights, the young people here should yearn for the outside world in such unfavorable conditions.
But, Keh mentioned before that the young people here hardly ever travel outside and are quite content with their current situation.
Furthermore, its obvious that most of the citys ie is spent on daily food and supplies, making it difficult for sustainable development.
If thats the case, why doesnt the ruler of this ce lead the people to migrate to a fertilend for better living, instead of struggling in this enclosed mountain range?
Is it just to prevent being annexed by Coldme and Saint Night?
Contemting this, Leo Ray couldnt help but recall the previous descriptions by Linda and Mason Banks, In addition to many oddities and irrational things, such as using Gold Dragons for settlements, even though something strange happened, the innkeeper pretends not to know.
It cant be denied that this city within the mountain range is indeed quite mysterious.
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, a short and fat merchant from the caravan in front walked towards him with a smile on his face.
He pointed to a nearby inn sign while rubbing his hands, ingratiatingly saying to Leo Ray, Your Excellency. Our caravan has decided to stay there for the night, what do you think?
Just go ahead and arrange it.
Handing a few Gold Dragons to the man, Leo Ray smiled faintly, By the way, the two of us are looking for a Crystal Kingdom merchant named A.
Do you happen to know of him?
Ah, A the chap. The short and fat merchant dly took the Gold Dragons offered by Leo Ray and immediately replied, Theres a shop at the corner up ahead.
Its called Dawn Delicate Trading Conference. You should be able to find him there.
Dawn Delicate Trading Conference? It sounds quite good.
Hearing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow before bidding farewell to the short and fat merchant, walking towards the pointed direction apanied by Linda.
My lord, if my memory serves me right,
The inn I stayed at back then was the one pointed out by that merchant.
Immediately following, Lindas decisive voice reached Leo Rays ears.I see, Taylor nodded slightly and made his way through the crowd.
He said, Our primary goal is to find A and inquire about the information regarding Giant Axe General Burt.
And also ask about the White Jade Ore. Afterwards, we can head back to the inn and see if we can find any other useful clues.
Understood, my Lord, Linda replied, bowing slightly in acknowledgment.
With that, they followed the bustling crowd forward.
Before long, a small, unremarkable shop came into Leo Rays view.
Is this the Dawn Delicate Trading Conference?
Looking up at the faded sign above the door, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown a little.
Then, he nodded to Linda and Taylor, who were hiding in the shadows, and walked directly into the shop with its half-open door.
Upon entering, the first thing that caught Leo Rays eye was several rows of shabby shelves.
On them were old and worn knickknacks, such as clocks, music boxes, and broken bottles C nothing seemed particrly special.
This ce is quite unexpected and doesnt live up to its name.
Looking around at the slightly dim surroundings, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly and stepped forward to continue searching.
Esteemed guests, wee to the Dawn Delicate Trading Conference!
Just then, a sudden clear female voice sounded from behind Leo Ray.
Surprised, he looked in the direction of the sound to see a smooth, palm-sized transparent crystal box, much like a block of ice, as the source of the voice.
Continuing to speak, the crystal box said, This is a crystal box made of sound transmission crystals, which can perfectly transmit sound within a limited space.
Now on special sale, only five gold coins per pair!
We are here to find A, Leo Ray replied with a smile as he gazed towards the back of a disy case.
He had already sensed the presence of a mysterious figure with a strength around Tier 2 Five-star behind it.
Are you looking for me, esteemed guests?
At his words, a petite and slender figure emerged from behind the showcase, holding a simrly sized sound transmission crystal box in her hand.
It seems that this crystal box is somehow simr to a walkie-talkie.
With that thought, Leo Ray shifted his gaze and began sizing up the other party.
This was a young woman in her early twenties, with neatly cropped hair and a bright blue ribbon, and a delicate and petite figure.
She was even shorter than the smallest of their subordinates, the sisters Serena and Ste rk.
However, her fairplexion and facial features were quite outstanding.
All in all, her appearance was somewhat beyond what Leo Ray had anticipated.
Shes quite powerful, is this A?
In the past, Uncle Keh and that fat merchant would refer to her as that guy.
I thought she would be like Keh, a chubby middle-aged man.
However, she does look a bit familiar.
While feeling a bit puzzled, Leo Ray couldnt help but frown slightly.
Then he replied, Thats right, Uncle Keh, the President of the Cyan Town Commerce Association, rmended us to find you.
So, you are friends with Uncle Keh. I made a small profit from the White Jade Ore transaction not too long ago, the petite A said on the other side.
She gently put down the crystal box in her hand and gracefully approached Leo Ray and Linda, smiling, What is it that you want with me?
Nothing special, Leo Ray replied nonchntly with a smile. We just want to ask you about someone.
Chapter 517: 383: The Peculiar Place_1
Chapter 517: Chapter 383: The Peculiar ce_1
Your Excellency, youvee to the right person!
Upon hearing this, Aughed and then patted her quite tall and straight chest, saying, This little girl is a well-known informant in the Crystal Kingdom!
As she spoke, As long eyshes shed, and she leaned forward slightly, making a skilled gesture of rubbing her fingers together at Leo Ray.
Continuing with a smile, she said, But I guess Your Excellency also knows,
we in the Crystal Kingdom have little contact with the outside world and are rarely known. As the saying goes, rarity makes things valuable, and the same is true for information.
Therefore, naturally, one has to pay a small price for it.
On the other side, Leo Ray smiled faintly, immediately understanding the other partys intention.
Without a doubt, for them, a problem that could be solved with Gold Dragons was not a problem at all.
Immediately after, Leo Ray moved his mind, and ten shining Gold Dragons appeared in his palm, and then handed them to the petite female merchant in front of him.
No wonder Uncle Keh introduced you as his friend, youre indeed very generous!
Opposite him, As starry eyes brightened, teasing Leo Ray, and then said, Since its a friend introduction, Ill give you a 20% discount!
After she finished speaking, she happily took eight Gold Dragons from Leo Rays palm at lightning speed.
This one is quite principled.
Seeing this, Leo Ray shrugged slightly, and then put the remaining two Gold Dragons back into his Space Bracelet.
So, Id like to ask this new friend from the Coldme Kingdom, who exactly in the Crystal Kingdom do you want to inquire about?
After collecting Leo Rays Gold Dragons, As expression became noticeably more enthusiastic.
She saw her inviting Leo Ray and Linda to sit down at the simple square table next to the container while chuckling and asking.
Her expression was as if she had just closed a big deal.
This persons name is Burt, and hes currently serving as a Kingdom General in the Coldme Kingdom.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray, who had just sat down on the wooden chair, got straight to the point, Not only is General Gilbert a long-established Tier 4 Senior Powerhouse,
but he alsomands a legion in the Coldme Royal Family and holds a high position.
Such a remarkable figure appearing in the Crystal Kingdom must have been widely known, right?
You mean him? Upon hearing this, As delicate face showed a peculiar expression.
Immediately after, she unhesitatingly put the Gold Dragons she had just obtained back on the table in front of Leo Ray,
and hurriedly shook her head, I apologize, Your Excellency, I have never heard this name before.
If Your Excellency is just asking about him, please leave as soon as possible, this little girl knows nothing.
Oh? Looking at her sudden change of expression, Leo Ray pushed the gold coins back in front of her and said calmly, No harm done. I was just casually asking.
Another reason why we came this time was to buy White Jade Ore inrge quantities. Im wondering if you still have it in stock?
If its only about White Jade Ore, this little girl can help.
On the other side, As fair face showed a forced smile again.
Then she said, Not to hide from Your Excellency, arge White Jade Ore vein was recently discovered in our Crystal Kingdoms mining zone.
Currently, its being urgently mined, and this little girl happens to have the exclusive sales rights to this vein.
If Your Excellency needs it, this little girl can prioritize supplying it to you in the future.
Lets do it that way.
Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded slightly, moved his mind, and took out another bag of gold coins, handing them to her palm.
He smiled and said, Let this be a deposit. Later, Ill have someone specifically contact you about the follow-up matters.
Thank you for your trust!
Seeing the bag full of shiny Gold Dragons, As starry eyes sparkled again, and she hurriedly put the gold coins into her arms.
Alright, lets leave it at that.
Nodding to the petite and exquisite Crystal Kingdom female merchant in front of him, Leo Rayughed lightly and stood up from the chair, walking towards the exit with Linda.
Your Excellency, take care! May our cooperation be pleasant!
A also hurriedly stood up and sent Leo Ray and Linda to the door, bidding farewell with an enthusiastic tone.
Like this, when they came back to the bustling streets,
Linda, who was closely following Leo Ray, couldnt help but frown slightly, Lord,
that female merchant clearly knows something about Burt, but she kept her mouth shut.
At this time, under the influence of Illusion Cloaks, although Lindas clothes were simple and her appearance was much more ordinary,
the heroic spirit on her face was reduced by more than half, but there was an unexpectedly alluring air.
This attracted some passers-by to sneak a peek.
Indeed, thats why
at the beginning, she blurted out You mean him? which was a response that showed she clearly knew something.
With a slight smile, Leo Ray observed the bustling shops around him, and said, Moreover,
it takes a lot to make a shrewd merchant like her spit out Gold Dragons that have already been earned.
Chapter 518: 383: The Peculiar Land_2
Chapter 518: Chapter 383: The Peculiar Land_2
From this it can be seen that behind this Giant Axe General Burt, there is obviously a past unknown to others.
Lords analysis is very reasonable.
A cool voice sounded, and it was still Linda with her long hair tied behind her head, leaving only two strands of hair hanging down from both sides of her ears.
And then she asked, What should we do next?
At this stage, our three goals foring here are to solve the problems about the Azure Pterosaur and White Jade Ore. Both of them have been resolved sessfully.
Thest one is to learn more about Giant Axe General Burt.
Like what we did with Joshua before, we should make full preparations to ultimately win him over.
With a slight nod to Linda, Leo Ray slowly retracted his gaze and replied, However, as you and Kombu said before.
This small country located in the mountains is quite mysterious with many illogical aspects.
Moreover, we are not sure whether these things are rted to Giant Axe General Burt.
So, our next move will naturally be centered on Burt.
Meanwhile, we will investigate these strange ces.
Lord, you are absolutely right. When I was staying here temporarily before, I didnt realize any significant differences between this ce and other regions.
Looking at the current situation, it is indeed quite strange.
At this moment, it seemed as if Lindas slender eyebrows were about to furrow together on her fair face, as she thoughtfully said, My Lord, in that case.
Then, let us go back to the inn we just visited and investigate.
After all, the strange things I encountered before happened there, so perhaps we might find some new clues.
Thats exactly what I was thinking. With a slight nod, Leo Rays dark eyes moved and he continued to observe the bustling streets around him.
Just then, there was a suddenmotion at the street corner ahead.
Peering through the crowded crowd, Leo Ray noticed.
It was a young mercenary from the caravan that entered the city earlier, who lookedpletely at a loss, surrounded by a group of local residents who seemed to be very angry.
Then, the short and fat merchant who had brought them into the city squeezed through the crowd, and after a bit of joking,
only then did he pull the still bewildered young mercenary from the angry crowd into the doorway of the nearby inn.
However, as the scene of the incident was far from them, and the street was very noisy,
they couldnt hear what exactly was being said.
My Lord, it seems that the young mercenary has done something to arouse the resentment of the local residents, Linda said thoughtfully as the flow of people returned to normal.
It seems so.
With a faint nod, Leo Ray opened Mind Talk to Linda and to Taylor, Gideon ck, Scarlett, Bianca White, Amelia, and Abigail, who were hiding under the Invisibility Cloak nearby. He said, Alright, lets go back to the inn and have a look.
So, they went straight back to the inn, where they saw the fat merchant speaking serious words to the young mercenary in the spacious lobby.
On the other side, seeing Leo Ray and the others enter, the fat merchant immediately came to greet them, his face full of smiles. Your Excellency, you are back.
I have already booked the room for you. It is the most luxuriousrge suite in the inn, located at the end of the second floor.
It can not only amodate the two of you, but even ten people easily!
Once the words were said, the short fat merchant handed an ancient brass room key to Leo Ray.
Well done. With a slight nod, Leo Ray took the key and pulled the fat merchant to one side.
Then he asked, What happened on the street just now?
So Your Excellency saw it. The fat merchants greasy face was full of helplessness, replying, Its the new mercenarys fault for not understanding the rules around here.
He almost got attacked by the local residents, you know, the customs here are quite simple but also very fierce.Oh? Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but raise his eyebrows slightly, asking, Actually, this is our first timeing to this kingdom in the mountains.
We heard that the people here dont like outsiders, so we joined your caravan temporarily. What are the taboos here?
Your Excellency, youve asked the right person.
The short, fat businessman pulled Leo Ray into the inns lobby and sat down in a secluded corner on the sofa.
Then he replied, I am different from most traveling merchants who asionallye here.
I am a professional merchant who runs a route between the Crystal Kingdom and Coldme.
As a result, I do know more about this ce than others.
At this point, a cautious expression appeared on the middle-aged, short and fat businessmans greasy face. After looking left and right,
he lowered his voice and continued, I must say,pared to other ces, this ce is quite unusual.
Oh? Hearing this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows and continued to listen.
Take that rookie mercenary, for example.
He was attacked by local residents because he took out a few Silver Dragons to pay for the local specialty.
At this moment, the short, fat businessman half-covered his mouth with his hand before speaking.
I see.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray couldnt help but reveal a pondering expression and thought to himself, Before this, Kombu did mention
that the locals here only use Gold Dragons for transactions.
When dealing with outsiders, they prefer to give more than they would ept Silver Dragons or Copper Dragons as change.
As for internal transactions, they divide the gold coins into several parts and use them as silver and copper coins.
It must be said that this method of using currency is indeed quite unique.
Thinking about this, Leo Ray didnt hesitate to ask again, Why do the locals here do this?
Thats one of the peculiarities of this ce.
The short, fat businessman lowered his voice even more and whispered, Ive asked several of my local partners the same question,
but not only did I get no answers, I was also kindly greeted twice.
If it werent for the fact that there are few foreign merchants here andpetition isnt that fierce, I would have quit long ago.
At this point, the short, fat businessman seemed to recall some unpleasant experiences and couldnt help but shiver.
Then he continued, And, I dont know if youve noticed,
but the architectural style here is also very unique. Its almost entirely angr, with no arches or rounded structures, making it look very rigid.
When I was young, I traveled through many countries but have never seen such a square and strict architectural style.
Ive noticed that too. Leo Ray nodded slightly and couldnt help but look thoughtful.
It has to be said that even in the Elf Relics or the domain of the Winged Race, he had never seen such architectural styles before.
It seems there are quite a few oddities here.
From this, its clear that there might indeed be a hidden, unknown secret here.
It must be said that this mysterious kingdom located within the mountain range is bing more and more interesting.
Upon realizing this, Leo Ray took a moment to ponder, rubbing his chin,
and then asked the middle-aged businessman, Are there any other noteworthy ces here besides this?
On the other side, the middle-aged, short, and fat businessman thought for a while, touching the back of his head, and then shook his head, Sorry, Your Excellency, I dont know about any other ces.
