Chapter 339 - 312: Eternal Night Demon Box【5K】_1
With a flash of dazzling light, Leo Ray’s 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 Lord’s 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 couldn’t 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 relationship with the Sanders family.
This laid 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 Blade 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 become a significant surprise force playing 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 plan.
“Also, the upcoming exploration of the unknown race’s relics in five days is bound to be an interesting adventure.”
“I wonder what treasures and encounters await? I’ll have Kelsey confirm the exact time later.”
With these thoughts, Leo Ray sniffed the air and gazed at the crescent moon in the night sky, deep in contemplation.
Secondly, regarding the items, he was quite satisfied with the loot from the previous two auctions.
He not only obtained a large 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 successfully upgraded to 100 rings.
It could be used to equip his main forces en masse, which would further enhance their tactical capabilities and combat 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 Flash!”
“However, to fully comprehend this skill, I must first master flying magic. I’ll 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, the last gain from this trip to Viennas City was their first direct confrontation with the mysterious organization.
From the beginning, through Serena and Stella’s surveillance, Leo Ray obtained an essential clue.
It was that the method the mysterious organization’s powerhouses used to verify each other’s identities was likely a unique, small-scale, trigger-based magic.
In addition, Taylor’s misleading words caused the mysterious organization’s attention to be drawn back to the Coldflame 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, I’ll 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 his composure.
Then he smiled at the surrounding subordinates and said, “Alright, everyone, you’ve worked hard today. Go back and rest early.”
“Lord, this is the Ancient Chest,” Stella Clark 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 Stella 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.
