Chapter 874: Chapter 558: The Shocking Rose Marquis_2
However, finding buyers one by one and avoiding the numerous spies of the three princes in this region meant that a significant amount of time would be needed.
Hence, it would naturally take a lot of time.
“All in all, the gold dragons stored in Blue Cold Fortress can undoubtedly help me deal with my urgent financial needs for the time being,”
Thinking of this, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction and continued pondering: “That said, the wealth of Blue Cold Fortress is indeed impressive; tens of millions of gold dragons. Even for ordinary City Lords, it’s already an astronomical figure.”
“Hehe, Lord, please feel free to use it. My subordinate is only interested in brewing wine, and as for these magnificent decorations, they are simply because the treasury can’t fit them all, so I just spent some on them,” said the Rose Marquis, holding the teapot with his orchid finger.
“As far as I know, as the Lord’s territory expands, there will inevitably be a shortage of funds. Therefore, starting from today, I will gradually deal with some treasures in the wine cellar within a reasonable range, so the Lord will naturally get a lot of funds!”
“Excellent.”
Leo Ray motioned for Rose Marquis to come closer and took his magic wand and robes from him.
Without saying much, even though Rose Marquis had already joined his camp, the fact that he was being watched by the three princes had not changed.
Therefore, what Leo Ray needed to do was to improve Rose Marquis’s strength in every possible way.
As usual, upgrading weapons and armor was the first step.
In this way, as soon as he had these two items in hand, Leo Ray put them all into his Space Bracelet and began upgrading them.
The next second, a prompt sounded in Leo Ray’s ear.
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 4 Weapon: Wand of Flower Spirits’ has been upgraded to ‘Tier 5 Weapon: Staff of the Forest Envoy’]
[Congratulations, your ‘Tier 4 Armor: Robe of Roses’ has been upgraded to ‘Tier 5 Armor: Robe of the Red Moon’]
“Both upgraded to Tier 5? Perfect!”
Delighted, Leo Ray first opened the attribute column of the new weapon.
[Name: Staff of the Forest Envoy]
[Tier: Tier 5•Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Attack Strength: ★★★★★★]
[Additional Effect One: Wrath of the Forest ‘50% increase in damage when using plant-based magic’]
[Additional Effect Two: Wind of the Forest ‘20% increase in movement’]
[Remark: A staff from the Elf Tribe, which is highly in tune with nature. Not only are they adept at using bows and arrows and have nimble Elf Rangers, but they also have the most powerful Forest Archmages and Forest Mages of the Elf Tribe.]
“Well, this staff is just perfect for Rose Marquis!”
Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction and opened the attribute column of the new robe.
[Name: Robe of the Red Moon]
[Tier: Tier 5•Extraordinary (Silver)]
[Defense Strength: ★★★]
[Additional Effect One: Magic Reduction•Extreme ‘Moderately reduces the user’s spell consumption’]
[Additional Effect Two: Magic Protection•Ordinary ‘Slightly reduces the damage taken’]
[Remark: This is a Tier 5 robe made by a half-elf magic craftsman who has fully inherited the magic craftsmanship of a certain Elf Tribe. The enchanting technique is exquisite. However, due to a Tier 5 half-elf powerhouse named Lily secretly learning the unspoken secrets of the Elf Tribe, she was hunted down by the Elf Tribe’s powerhouses. Eventually, she exhausted her strength and fell off a cliff, and her whereabouts remain unknown.]
“Not bad. With this robe, Rose Marquis’s survivability and endurance will be further enhanced!”Thinking of this, Leo Ray didn’t hesitate and immediately handed the Tier 5[Staff of the Forest Envoy]and the Tier 5[Robe of the Red Moon]back to Rose Marquis.
“Tier 5 national-level magical weapon and Tier 5 national-level armor?! Are these Lord’s… gifts for this subordinate?!”
Looking at the colorful wooden staff and the dazzling red robe in his hands, the astonished gaze of the Rose Marquis spoke volumes of the emotional waves surging in his heart.
Overwhelmed by excitement and astonishment, he couldn’t help but prostrate at Leo Ray’s feet, not wanting to get up for a long while.
As for how precious Tier 5 equipment is, Rose Marquis knew it all too well.
Most importantly, with these two pieces of equipment, his power would undoubtedly be greatly enhanced!
Even when facing Tier 4 Senior Powerhouses, or even Tier 4 Peak Powerhouses, he would stand invincible!
“Alright, this is just a part of my greeting gift, no need to make a fuss.”
Once again helping the sturdy and enchanting man up, Leo Ray said with a faint smile.
“A part?!”
On the other side, just as Rose Marquis, who had just stood up, hadn’t reacted yet.
As Leo Ray’s mind moved again, 20 magical scrolls emanating faint energy waves appeared on the table nearby.
“Lord, what is this…?!”
Seeing this sudden event, Rose Marquis, who had not yet recovered from his excitement, gulped involuntarily.
As a Fourth-Tier Great Mage, he was no stranger to these extremely precious magical scrolls, which were invaluable and almost exclusively available to members of the royal family.
“These are 10 Tier 4 Advanced Elemental Defense Barrier Scrolls and 10 Tier 4 Absolute Elemental Defense Barrier Scrolls. As for their function, I don’t think I need to explain, right? They can enable you to hold your ground against several Tier 4 powerhouses for a short time.”
Looking at the dumbfounded expression of the Rose Marquis, Leo Ray smiled again and with another wave, 20 swirling, colorful magic medicines appeared in front of him.
Then he continued, “In addition, these are 10 Tier 3 Star Moon Energy Charging Pills that instantly replenish mana, and 10 Tier 3 Stars Mana Recovery Pills that speed up mana recovery, which can further enhance your magical endurance.”
Pausing for a moment, Leo Ray said solemnly, “With the assistance of these, you should be safe from harm as long as you don’t encounter a Tier 5 Powerhouse, and if the three princes send troops to attack, I will also send reinforcements.
All in all, as long as you are under my protection, no one will be able to harm you!”
“Subordinate gratefully thanks Lord!”
Upon hearing this, Rose Marquis was already so excited that he couldn’t contain himself, so he once again bowed his head to Leo Ray.
At this moment, as he knelt at Leo Ray’s feet, Rose Marquis realized in his heart.
The gold dragons he had offered paled in comparison to the Lord’s generous rewards.
More importantly, joining Lord’s power was undoubtedly the best decision of his life!
“Now I fully understand why Lord can make Princess Ariel, who belongs to the royal family, willingly submit. Such profound foundations are simply unimaginable.”
In the aftermath of the shock, Rose Marquis couldn’t help but sigh in his heart: “And that possible unknown and terrifying catastrophe… it seems that the world is really about to change, no, perhaps ‘the calm before the storm’ is a more appropriate description.”
“When the time comes, some more incredible things might happen, right? And what I can do is to cooperate with Lord in making preparations as much as possible before the storm.”
Thinking of this, Rose Marquis took a deep breath and said solemnly to Leo Ray, “Please rest assured, Lord, your subordinate is willing to give life and limb for you, until death!”
“Very well, I have a few things I need to discuss with you.”
Next, Leo Ray described the current distribution of his power to Rose Marquis.
“So it turns out that with the addition of subordinate’s Blue Cold Fortress, Lord now controls a total of nine towns?”
Hearing this, Rose Marquis nodded thoughtfully, then said gravely, “Lord, pardon my boldness, but with our current strength, even if we were to only confront one prince’s power in the Coldflame Eastern Region, we would suffer great losses.”
