The Sovereign Dragon Ring

Episodes 104

Inside the living room.

"My deepest apology, Director Maia," Linley said humbly, "But for now, I really don't want to put this statue on auction, nor do I want to display it. But I can guarantee that if in the future I want to auction it off, or show it off, I will ask the Proulx Gallery to help me. ”

Leaning on her wand, Director Maia smiled at Linley. "Oh, it's okay. This time, asking you to consider displaying your statue in our gallery is only a secondary purpose. My main goal is to see these sculpting geniuses, people like us we might see once in a trillion years. ”

Right at this moment, the hotel manager came over.

This manager humbly smiled towards Director Maia, then turned to Linley and Yale. "Yale's young master, Linley's young master, the representative of the Rhine Empire was outside the hotel. They wanted to meet young master Linley. ”

"Ha ha . “Laughter, Director Maia stands up. "Linley, it looks like you're pretty busy at the moment. Then I won't bother you for now. I'm going to go. ”

As he spoke, Director Maia led her servants out of the hotel.

Linley looked at the hotel manager. "Please help me block them. Right now, I don't want to meet the representatives of the Four Great Kingdoms or the Dark Alliance. "Linley very frankly refused to meet the people who came to see him. Linley knew very well that if he were to meet the representatives of the Four Great Kingdoms or the Dark Alliance, it would cause great dissatisfaction with the Radiant Church.

After all, once he met them, even if he ended up rejecting their offer, the Radiant Church would still be suspicious of him, as they would not have anyone present during the meeting.

And the Radiant Church possessed incredible power throughout the entire Yulan continent. It was no weaker than the other Four Great Kingdoms. There was no need for Linley to join the Four Great Kingdoms or the Dark Alliance.

………. .

Three days later . On the train to Fenlai City were Linley and Yale, while Reynolds and George remained at the Institute.

"Third Brother. You are wise. These past two or three days, the representatives of the Dark Alliance and the Four Great Kingdoms are constantly trying to meet you. "Yale laughs. The people who had come to meet with Linley were all people with authority and influence within their respective organizations, even though they were based in the Holy Union.

However, none of those people were the main characters. After all, news of a seventeen-year-old two-element magus of the seventh rank would take quite a long time before heading to the Four Great Kingdoms and the Dark Alliance. This is because it is too far away.

All the people who were trying to meet with Linley had made the decision to contact him with their own authority.

Unfortunately, they all stopped at the door with Linley's direction.

"Yale, the family that amassed my clan's ancestral heirloom, that" Lucas "clan [Lu'ka'si] ... if I tried to regain the 'Slayers' from them, would it really be difficult?" Linley was heading to Fenlai City for the obvious purpose of taking care of this affair.

Yale nodded. "really. At first, I was eager to share the news that I did not look deeper into this clan. But now, it seems that this Lucas clan is quite extraordinary. ”

Linley nodded slightly.

A clan that had bought the heirloom of its own clan ancestors hundreds of years ago was definitely not a newly established minor clan.

"Klan Lucas is also a fairly ancient clan, with about a thousand years of history. In the entire Kingdom of Fenlai, their wealth could only be considered an intermediary, but in terms of influence among the nobility, they were quite powerful. The most important of all ... the clan leader of the Lucas clan was a very stubborn old man, and a serious hoarder. Your clan's ancestral heirloom is the personal weapon of the first Dragonblood Warrior. Although it had been over a thousand years since the Dragonblood Warrior appeared, this weapon was still something very special. And moreover, your clan's weapons are worth at least several hundred thousand gold coins. ”

"But even if you have money, based on the stubborn nature of the clan leader Lucas, you will most likely still find it difficult to obtain it. ”

Yale sighed as he spoke.

Some people cannot be moved by money alone.

"Linley, if my Second Uncle helps and uses the connection our Dawson Conglomerate has, giving the old man some pressure, then the difficulty level will drop significantly. "Yale Suan.

Linley knew that Yale spoke with good intentions, but Linley really did not want others to help in this matter.

"Let me try first. If I really can't convince him, then I'll ask you, Boss Yale, to help. "Linley laughs.

Suddenly, Linley felt a tremor next to him. And then, a small form of Bebe appeared from the side, staring drowsyly at Linley and Yale. At the same time, Bebe mentally said to Linley, "Boss, this carriage is very slow. I've been sleeping long enough now, but we're still not at Fenlai City. ”

Hugging Bebe, Linley said, "Alright, that's enough. After a while, we'll be there. ”

Suddenly ….

"Let's!" Pathetic shouting. The train suddenly stopped.

Sitting with the carriage, Linley and Yale both felt the carriage suddenly shake. Yale's expression changed. "Not good . ”

"We want to invite the young master, Linley and Yale to come out. "A somewhat piercing sound came from outside.

Linley and Yale exchanged looks. For their opponents to be able to surround and stop them without them realizing shows that the opponent is clearly stronger than them. Without a fight, they got out of the car.

Currently, two of their bodyguards of the seventh rank had fallen to the ground, staining with their blood. Even the driver of the train fell. For a warrior of the seventh rank to be killed without being able to react was a clear indication of the strength of their opponent.

"Young master Linley and Yale, we came with no ill intentions. We just want to invite Linley to come be our guest for a bit. As far as you, young master Yale, we will naturally not harm you. ”Not far away, three men standing in greenish-black clothes. Their leader, a man covered in knife scars, was the one who had spoken.

Yale was furious at the death of his bodyguard of the seventh rank, but he did not vent his anger. After all, he could tell how strong these opponents were.

The injured man smiled towards Linley. "Linley, don't fight. My subordinates can easily catch you, let alone myself. Right now, the only thing you have to do is follow us obediently. Would you like to? Or should we use violence. ”

Linley glanced at Yale. Linley really did not want to cause Yale any misfortune.

"Sister three, don't go with them. "Yale said in a panic.

"All right, I'll follow. "Linley nodded.

The knife-skinned man could not help but smile. "It's nice to hear . Young master Yale, we hope you will forget everything that just happened here. '' As he spoke, the knife-skinned man glanced at the two next to him. The two instantly rushed at high speed next to Linley.

"Let's go . "The knife-skinned man instructed.

……

Holding Bebe, Linley started heading southeast under the escort of the two men by his side.

"Boss, let's kill these two men. I'm confident in my ability to kill two people around you. But for the carpeted man, I'm not so sure. "Say Bebe mentally.

Linley knew that Bebe's senses were usually very accurate.

He was also able to estimate that the two people by his side were most likely rank eight warriors. And their leader who had that blade scar was most likely a level nine warrior. An organization capable of dispatching soldiers of the ninth rank and two warriors of the eighth rank was no ordinary organization.

"Bebe, don't be in a hurry. "Linley.

"Where on earth did all these experts start popping up?" Linley felt helpless.

Doehring Cowart appeared by his side, grinning as he glanced at Linley. “Currently, your status is different from the past. Naturally, the experts you meet now will also be at a higher level. Already I said before that only after reaching the seventh rank will you be considered to have entered the countless ranks of the strong. In each and every one of the Four Great Kingdoms, there might only be a few Saint level fighters, but there would be at least a few dozen fighters of the ninth rank. Mobilizing one of them for the purpose of dealing with you is no big deal. ”

An empire or one of the great alliances would have hundreds of millions of citizens.

Since there were several dozen fighters of the ninth rank among hundreds of millions of people meant that for every ten million or so, there was one warrior of the ninth rank. In honesty, a fighter of the ninth rank was still very rare.

"Where are they headed?" Linley stared questioningly at Doehring Cowart.

"If my guess is correct, all three should belong to the Dark Alliance. Most likely, they tried to enter the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts, and then changed direction from the inside to head directly south, rushing towards the border with the Dark Alliance. "Doehring Cowart said quite confidently.

Linley thought for a moment, then agreed.

The Four Great Kingdoms and the Dark Alliance had both placed several military units in their respective regions, but none in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. After all, for most magical beasts, ordinary soldiers were nothing more than food.

To an ordinary warrior, the Magical Beast Mountain Range was extremely ferocious.

But for a soldier of the ninth rank and two warriors of the eighth rank? It was a very easy road to walk. As long as the three of them did not enter the central area of the Giant Beast Mountain Range, there should be no danger.

… .

Where the battle had taken place now, Yale remained, staring at the corpses of the three men. Sighing deeply, he started heading towards Fenlai City. But when he left, a man dressed in black suddenly appeared. The black-clothed man glanced in the direction where Linley had taken, then immediately pulled the vertical black flute from his clothes.

“Swiiiiish. ”Weird and piercing sound out of the flute.

This sound is so strange. If four people in four different locations heard it, the one standing in the direction of Fenlai City would hear it a thousand times louder than the one standing on the opposite side, far away from Fenlai City.

This flute seemed to concentrate all the sounds in one direction, and in fact did not seem to rely on sound; rather it relied on a unique vibration mechanism.

…

Holding Bebe, Linley obediently followed the three men. The man who was injured by the knife was very satisfied with Linley's cooperation.

But once they reached a location about three kilometers away from the Mountain Range of Magical Beasts, the expression of the blade-skinned man changed.

"Huh. "The knife-scarred man directly retreated to Linley's side, and then coldly stared at his surroundings. "out . ”

Instantly, six men in tight black clothes. The carpeted man did not seem to care much about these six men, as his gaze was fixed into the distance, where an old man dressed in black and an old man dressed in burlap slowly headed towards them.

"Linley is a member of our Holy Union. You, a Judge of the Dark Alliance, dare to snatch the members of the Holy Union? Aren't you over-respecting the Radiant Church just too much? ”The old man dressed in black said coldly.

The man who was injured by the knife laughed a little. "I don't expect to attract your personal attention, Deputy Arbitrator. Oh, and you even invited a Clerk to come too. And some judicial officers. It seems like you people really appreciate this Linley very highly. ”

The knife-skinned man very clearly possessed strength like his opponent's, but he did not appear to be frightened at all.

"All I want to do is invite Linley to have fun with us in the Dark Alliance, but since you all came to prevent that, then forget it. "The man wounded by the knife looked at the black-robed elder. "Vice Arbitrator, I want you to agree to something. I'll spare Linley, and you pardon two of my subordinates. What are you saying?"

The black-robed man knew very well that the knife-skinned man in front of him was a Judge of the Dark Alliance, someone with extraordinary strength that would be extremely difficult to kill on his own. But this time, he had also invited a Hermit from the Radiant Temple to come with him. To kill this opponent would not be too difficult.

But ... Linley is in the hands of the opponent.

"Good . I guarantee with my own personal honor that you and your subordinates will be allowed to leave. But Linley had to stay behind. "The black-robed old man didn't really want to have a big fight with these opponents right now.

"Good . We're going . ”

The man who was injured by the knife immediately turned to leave, while at the same time said warmly to Linley, "Linley, if you have some free time and opportunity, please, You can visit us in the Dark Alliance whenever you want. Haha ... Our Dark Alliance will always welcome you. ”

After finishing these words, the man who was injured by the blade and his subordinates suddenly moved at high speed, turning into three blurred human-shaped as they disappeared.
