Chapter 792: Chapter 517: The Unanswered Message_1
Noticing this, a slightly puzzled look appeared on Leo Ray’s face.
According to the last private message from Quinn Serena.
More than half an hour ago, as the leader of Lane No.9 Club, she had already started to return to her own territory, and the return journey was about half an hour.
Now, the agreed time has passed.
Theoretically, even if she hasn’t arrived yet, she should at least reply with a message.
“Not long ago, I had a casual chat with Quinn Serena. During this time, thanks to the unremitting efforts of her and her people, the territory occupied by Lane No.9 Club in Pine Sound Range has expanded significantly. They have even established a stringent patrol mechanism in the area.”
“Moreover, Quinn Serena, who possesses outstanding combat talent, has successfully advanced to Tier 2 with the help of the Qi Condensing Pill I provided. Coupled with the initial 500 sets of Tier 1 equipment I gave, Lane No.9 Club is undoubtedly the most powerful force amongst the nearby lords, with an overwhelming advantage.”
“Of course, this still doesn’t pose even the slightest threat to me. I’ve already checked the overall strength of the other party during my last teleportation to Pine Sound Range, and everything is entirely within my control.”
“That being said, under these circumstances, the likelihood of them encountering danger should be extremely small, considering it’s only a half-hour journey.”
Thinking of this, Leo Ray raised his eyebrows slightly and thought to himself, “Well, let’s just wait a little longer. If there’s still no news, I’ll ask the other lords of Lane No.9 Club in Pine Sound Range later.”
While Leo Ray was pondering, he had already received his five Tier 2 Recruitment Orders for today.
Moreover, he also upgraded and decomposed the Exquisite Logging Axes produced by himself, Penelope Welbourn, and Solomon and Sylvia that had not been collected yesterday.
Finally, he obtained 8,400 units of Iron Ingot, and corresponding quantities of Iron Ore and Wood.
“At present, my Iron Ingots have reached 13,200 units, leaving more than half of the 30,000 units required for the next upgrade, so today will naturally be the same as yesterday.”
Making up his mind, Leo Ray immediately sent private messages to Penelope Welbourn, Solomon, and Sylvia, informing them to continue producing Exquisite Logging Axes and traded the corresponding resources.
As a result, including Leo Ray himself, a total of 16,800 units of Iron Ore and 16,800 units of Wood were consumed by the seven lords combined.
After completing all this, Leo Ray used his Mind Talk to let Amelia invite Orion Wolfe to the Lord’s Office.
During this afternoon period, it was the time for Orion Wolfe, the Alchemist of the territory, to focus on refining Magic Medicine.
So naturally, it would be better to let Amelia, Orion’s personal maid, to go and ask about it tentatively.
“Subordinate pays his respects to Lord!”
In a matter of moments, Orion Wolfe, dressed in his signature light gold robe, appeared before Leo Ray and bowed deeply.
“No need for formalities.”
After helping Orion Wolfe, who still had a messy hair that looked a bit like an Oriole nest, to stand up, Leo Ray smiled and said, “You’ve worked hard recently.”
“Lord, you shouldn’t say that.”
Orion smiled faintly, stroking the flipped hair behind his ears and puffing out his chest, saying, “It’s my honor to be able to serve you, my lord!”
At this point, Orion, who was also the heir to the Frost Family and a countess, wrinkled her nose and continued, “Also, rest assured, Lord, although my current strength is not as good as the Iceberg Lady, I won’t lose to that guy in alchemy!”
Upon finishing speaking, despite Orion’s confident expression, she knew very well in her heart.
At present, under the premise that Joshua Bingaman has successfully advanced to the Tier 4 powerhouse, it may take a long time for her to have any hope of catching up with him.
By that time, the other party would have become even stronger than she could imagine.
Realizing this, Orion frowned slightly and couldn’t help but sigh softly.
However, this expression vanished in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, Orion regained her high-spirited look.
Even so, just as the Lord once said, she would not lose to Joshua Bingaman!
“The spirit is quite good.”
Right across from him, Leo Ray, who had been watching Orion Wolfe’s series of subtle facial expressions, smiled faintly.
Immediately after, a small, exquisite blue brocade box appeared in his palm.
Without a doubt, this was the second Refinement Energy Gathering Pill.
Leo Ray handed the pill to Orion Wolfe while opening the small brocade box and smiling, “Let this be a reward for your unwavering efforts.”
“This… this is?!”
Orion Wolfe, who was somewhat surprised to receive the brocade box handed to him by Leo Ray, couldn’t believe the expression that surfaced on his fair face, exclaiming, “This is a Tier 4 magic potion that permanently increases one’s strength?!”
“That’s right, this pill is called the Refinement Energy Gathering Pill, the upgraded version of the Rose Gathering Energy Pill.”
Maintaining a faint smile, Leo Ray responded, “This pill could help you achieve the criteria to advance to a Tier 4 powerhouse.”
“My deepest gratitude, Lord!”
Looking at the round magic pill in his hand enveloped by a fragrant aroma, Orion Wolfe was already excited and at a loss, bowing his head deeply to Leo Ray once more.
This, no doubt, meant that he now had the qualifications to touch the threshold of Tier 4 powerhouse!
It should be noted that a powerful Tier 4 powerhouse is enough to rule a city, making enemies think twice before invading!
In face-to-face confrontations with comparable equipment, they possess the overpowering strength to slay ordinary, and even senior-level Tier 3 powerhouses with their every move!
“You may rise.”
Immediately after, Leo Ray handed another Tier 4-level Sacred Blessing Pill that assists in advancement to Orion Wolfe, and introduced its effects to him.
On the other side, Orion Wolfe could hardly suppress his excitement and seemed ready to stay on his knees indefinitely.
“Alright, go and advance in a bit.”
Regaining his composure and helping Orion Wolfe up, Leo Ray nodded again.
So with that, he told the excited Orion Wolfe to wait for a moment.
Leo Ray then summoned Taylor, Scarlett, Gideon Black, Serena Clark, Stella Clark, Bianca White, Abigail, Amelia, Joshua Bingaman, Orion Wolfe, and Olivia – a total of twelve main subordinates.
The Lord’s Office also summoned Roger Smith and Belinda Wright, the territory’s commander and deputy commander, and the old steward Warren Dexter and Rudy Blues, the territory’s logistic commander and deputy commander.
Following that, according to Burt and Joshua’s configurations, he distributed 50 magical scrolls to each person.
These were 10 Tier 2 Night Sky Fire, 10 Tier 2 Magic Lamps, 5 Tier 3 Raging Waves Swords, 5 Tier 3 Advanced Flame Burst Bombs, 5 Tier 4 Ice Ground as Prison, 5 Tier 3 Defense Scrolls, 5 Tier 4 Advanced Defense Scrolls, and 5 Tier 4 Absolute Defense Scrolls.
There were also 20 magic potions, including 10 Tier 2 Healing Magic Potions, 5 Tier 3 Eulogy Feather Transformation Pills, and 5 Tier 3 Wind Spirit Haste Pills.
Of course, including Scarlett and Rudy Blues, the eight magic powerhouses also received 5 Starry Recovery Magic Pills and 5 Star Moon Energy Charging Pills.
After completing all of this, Leo Ray waved his hand and instructed everyone to continue with their tasks amidst the kneeling and thanking from his subordinates.
After all the subordinates had left, Leo Ray opened the private message interface again and found that Quinn Serena still hadn’t replied.
“It seems that the other party must have indeed encountered some kind of problem.”
With that thought, Leo Ray didn’t hesitate, immediately contacting the two other lords near Quinn Serena’s location, Gabriel Jordan and Myla.
A moment later, there was still no response from Myla and Gabriel Jordan.
“It’s understandable if one person loses contact, but if three people don’t respond simultaneously, it’s clearly abnormal. What exactly happened in Pine Sound Range?”
As Leo Ray pondered, the “ding” sound of a private message prompted him, and it finally rang.
