Chapter 162 - 162: 162: Meeting the Lord Again_l
He gestured for his subordinates surrounding him to stop, and asked, “What happened?”
“My Lord, some special energy fluctuations have been detected from the mountains near the forest.”
Taylor, his massive figure halted, landed on a thick tree trunk, and replied, “This energy fluctuation seems to be very similar to the one My Lord experienced when using Returning Crystal on the Border Battlefield before.”
‘My Lord, Senior Taylor is right!”
On the other side, Scarlett, with her red magical wings and holding her magic wand, floated beside Leo Ray and said, “This should be the energy field produced by some type of teleportation spell.”
“Teleportation spell?” Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but show a thoughtful expression.
Before this, he had learned that only a few rare space magic mages in this world can cast teleportation spells for spatial jumps.
Although the distance of a teleportation spell is very limited, it is generally fixed within the caster’s range of perception.
However, the most remarkable ones can even perform large-scale group teleportation, using airborne tactics to catch their enemies off guard on the battlefield.
Of course, Leo Ray had already investigated that both the Coldflame Kingdom and the neighboring Saint Night Kingdom did not have powerful space mages of this caliber.
“How could there be energy fluctuations of a teleportation spell here?”
With puzzled thoughts, Leo Ray couldn’t help but slightly frown. After a brief moment of pondering, he promptly ordered, “Alright, Serena and Stella, put on your Invisibility Cloaks and lead the way. Let us all be vigilant and go see what’s happening.”
Next, following Leo Ray’s signal, all the subordinates refocused their minds, turned into virtual shadows, and began to speed toward the direction of the energy fluctuations maintaining their original formation.
“My Lord, the source of the energy fluctuations has been found.”
Five minutes later, in the green mountains, Serena’s voice came through the mind talk, “Only some small insects are present near the destination.”
“We’ll be there soon.” Learning that there were no threats ahead, Leo Ray patted the Taylor beneath him and signaled for him to quicken their pace.
After a moment, as Leo Ray stood on the top of a mountain, he could discern the scene not far away with a look of surprise on his face.
From first glance, nearly ten buildings were densely packed around a spacious mountain stream, with the Lord’s Mansion prominently in the middle! It was worth mentioning that the arrangement of these buildings was quite unique.
The eight ordinary residential houses surrounding the perimeter were built compactly without any gaps, tightly encircling the Lord’s Mansion in the center, forming a standard nine-square grid.
“Using the residential houses as a wall to protect the mansion? Interesting.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray’s face showed a curious expression.
At this moment, a life-and-death struggle was taking place.
About twenty Rock-horned Wolves, with strength around Tier 1 Seven and Eight-star, were pacing back and forth near the ordinary residential houses, drooling and letting out low growls.
Leo Ray had seen many of these demon beasts with lethal horns on their heads in the forest before.
Although their agility is slightly inferior to other types of demon beasts, their unique horns and tough fur are their main characteristics.
On the other side, more than twenty farmers were standing on the rooftops, preparing for battle, and constantly trying to drive away the covetous wolf pack.
Upon closer inspection, Leo Ray noticed that these Tier 1 One-star and Tier 1
Two-star ordinary farmers were mostly armed with Tier 1 iron long spears or short swords.However, their panicked expressions and clumsy actions clearly showed that they were not professional warriors.
“Indeed, just by looking at the weapons, this lord’s development level is much higher than Solomon and Sylvia,” said Leo Ray.
Shifting his gaze slightly, Leo Ray focused on the Lord’s Mansion in the center.
There was no doubt that this was the first time he had seen another lord’s mansion.
“From the appearance, it has already been upgraded to a Level 3 duplex structure, hasn’t it?”
Leo Ray nodded slightly, and finally looked at the unfamiliar lord on the roof of the mansion.
This male lord looked panicked and was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. His messy hair hadn’t been taken care of in a long time, and he was struggling to direct the surrounding villagers.
Without a doubt, if these Rock-horned Wolves with an obvious advantage in strength rushed onto the roof, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“My lord, look under these buildings!”
At this moment, Scarlett’s crisp voice sounded in Leo Ray’s ear.
Looking at the bottom of the buildings, Leo Ray found a faint blue glow flickering and rippling around, as if hidden.
“My lord, it seems that this special energy fluctuation is coming from under these buildings.”
On the other side, Abigail adjusted her black hairband and spoke softly.
“Indeed, there are energy fluctuations from teleportation magic under all the buildings.”
Raising an eyebrow, Leo Ray continued his observation: “Only a small part of the surrounding trees has been cut down. Judging by the workload of twenty-odd people, it should take less than a day, and there are no signs of long-term habitation around the territory.”
Noticing these details, Leo Ray looked pensive, and suddenly realized in his heart: “I was wondering how a territory could appear out of nowhere…
It seems that, if I’m not mistaken, the lord’s talent should be able to move the entire territory, and the time spent moving it here shouldn’t be more than a day.”
At this moment, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel excited: “Moving the entire territory? Although I don’t know the exact details of the other party’s talent, this special talent could be of great use in the future if it could be utilized by me.”
Just as he was thinking about this, Leo Ray inadvertently noticed that there seemed to be a character carved on one of the residential houses.
Adjusting his position and looking again, he found that it was actually the character ‘4%.
“Well, well, it seems we can find members of Master Leo Fan Club wherever we go.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray shook his head with a wry smile.
From Sylvia’s previous introduction about the fan club, Leo Ray had already learned that
Only by upgrading to a Fourth-Class Mansion would the alliance function between lords be unlocked.
Therefore, at this stage, with almost no one having upgraded to a Fourth-Class
Mansion,
All members of the Master Leo Fan Club would carve the character ‘4%’ on prominent locations in their territories to prevent accidental attacks on each other, and there were also a series of anti-counterfeiting measures in place.
Awooo, awooo!
Just as Leo Ray was thinking about this, the ferocious Rock-horned Wolves on the other side could no longer contain themselves, and launched a fierce attack on the unfamiliar lord’s territory..
