Chapter 80 - 80: Advancing to the Second-order Strongman_l
The next moment, a familiar notification sounded in Leo Ray’s ears.
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 3 Cloak: Illusion Cloak’ has upgraded to ‘Tier 4 Cloak: Invisibility Cloak’ (3 pieces)! ]
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 3 Cloak: Illusion Cloak’ has upgraded to ‘Tier 3
Cloak: Illusion Cloak’ (205 pieces)! ]
“Well, that’s something. Three of them transformed… Invisibility Cloak, huh?
Looks like the Deathly Hallows are within reach.”
Thinking of this, Leo Ray curiously clicked on the upgraded cloak’s attribute column.
[Name: Invisibility Cloak]
[Grade: Tier – Epic (Purple)]
[Defense Strength: None]
[Additional Effect: Tier 4 Invisibility Skill “Wearing this cloak can make you invisible, along with some concealment effect, effective for Tier 4 and
[Note: This invisibility cloak is enchanted by a legendary Tier 5 illusionist and can be used in any environment. Be careful not to make any strange noises.]
“Not bad. It seems that I’ve got another tactical option.”
With a faint smile, Leo Ray involuntarily let out a yawn.
At this moment, his eyelids felt heavy, almost like they had been filled with lead. He didn’t bother contemplating it any further and dashed up the stairs to the second floor to sleep.
When Leo Ray opened his eyes again, the moon was still high up in the sky. However, after a good stretch, he gradually became sober and realized that a new day had already begun.
He quickly sat up, shook himself awake, and turned on the mind talk function to ask, “Taylor, how’s the investigation going?”
“Very good. How long until you get back?” Leo Ray continued asking.
“My Lord, it should be about half an hour. ” Taylor’s voice came again.
“Alright, we’ll talk when you get back. Focus on getting here first.” Leo Ray nodded and closed the mind talk.
Immediately afterward, he concentrated his mind, and a Qi Condensing Pill appeared in his hand.
“The medicine from yesterday has been completely refined. That bottleneck feeling is becoming more and more intense.”
With his eyes closed, Leo Ray sensed the slowly circulating energy vortex within his body and murmured, “I wonder if I can break through to Tier 2 today?”
Without a doubt, after observing and understanding this world for some time, Leo Ray clearly understood that breaking into Tier 2 would only be the beginning, barely touching the threshold of a true expert. At the same time, his ability to survive would undoubtedly be further improved.
Thinking about it, he excitedly gazed at the smooth and warm magic medicine in his hand, and without hesitation, swallowed it in one gulp.
The fragrant magic medicine entered his body, and the familiar explosive power immediately scattered within him, causing his body to tremble involuntarily.
However, after several previous violent experiences, Leo Ray’s expression remained calm, and his breathing gradually stabilized.
Following his previous experiences, he skilfully extracted a pure strand of energy from the energy vortex in his body.
He then quickly dispersed it through his meridians, gradually introducing the restless medicine’s power into the energy vortex.
In the beginning, this process went quite smoothly.However, when a large amount of the potion’s energy began to linger around the energy vortex, something unexpected happened.
This time, the violent energy from the magic potion did not merge with Leo Ray’s own energy vortex. Instead, it began to collide violently.
Subsequently, a never-before-experienced pain immediately entered his brain.
At the same time, the calm air around him suddenly stirred up waves of invisible ripples.
“Has it finally reached the threshold for advancement?”
Feeling the intense changes within his body, due to the strong pain, beads of sweat the size of beans began to appear on Leo Ray’s forehead.
Before this, he had already asked Taylor and Serena and Stella several times about the feeling and state when advancing.
Thus, although the intense pain caught him off guard, he quickly adjusted his condition.
“What I need to do next is to compress the two forces simultaneously as much as possible, right?”
With this thought, Leo Ray, who was sitting cross-legged, gritted his teeth while concentrating. He then began to attempt forcibly merging the two violently colliding energies together.
At the same time, as if sensing Leo Ray’s deliberate suppression, the two forces within his body, like burning fierce flames, violently churned up and down, apparently unwilling to submit easily.
However, although the resistance of the two forces was fierce, Leo Ray’s mental power was clearly superior.
After a stalemate between the two sides, the energy vortex eventually conceded defeat first. Under Leo Ray’s guidance, it began to reluctantly condense and contract.
Then, the other violent energy from the magic potion also quickly stabilized, unable to support itself alone. It soon reintegrated with the condensed energy vortex once more.
Realizing this, Leo Ray, with his eyes tightly closed, did not hesitate. His mental power surged at full strength, thoroughly merging the two forces together as one.
The next second, an unprecedented feeling of fullness and comfort spread throughout Leo Ray’s whole body.
At this very moment, he could clearly feel that the re-condensed energy vortex, although smaller than before, held at least several times more energy than before.
“Did it finally succeed?”
Excited, feeling the surging energy within his body, Leo Ray, with a face full of joy, lied down in bed taking deep breaths while opening up the attribute column for the Lord.
[Name: Leo Ray]
[ID: 0013076067] [Occupation: Lord] [Tier: Tier 2 One-Star]
[Talent: Golden Finger Lv: 1]
[Skill: Frightening Flash “Physical – Tier 3”]
“I wonder if this time, I can execute the first two slashes of the Three-Stage Slash for Frightening Flash?”
After a brief rest, still somewhat excited, Leo Ray’s mind moved and a large wooden barrel filled with water appeared in front of him.
Next, after washing off the sweat from his body and changing into a clean set of clothes, Leo Ray, who felt refreshed and invigorated, stepped out of the Lord’s Mansion with a noticeably lighter and more agile gait.
At this time, the deep blue night sky was still filled with twinkling stars and dawn had not yet broken.
However, Taylor, who had just returned, as well as Gideon Black, Serena, Stella, and Scarlett, who were all dressed and ready, were already standing outside the door, waiting for their Lord’s command.
“Taylor, thanks for the hard work. We’ll discuss the specifics once we get near the border on the other side of the forest.” Leo Ray gave a slight nod after gently patting Taylor’s arm.
Immediately after, he took a deep breath, his sharp gaze scanning over the subordinates one after another, before he said, “Let’s move out! Our destination is the battlefield!”
