Chapter 686: Chapter 467: Lord and Banquet Night_1
After pondering for a moment, Leo Ray looked out of the window at the two bright moons in the night sky, all the while murmuring to himself, “At present, both the outer and inner parts of Coldflame are turbulent and chaotic. It won’t be long before an opportunity arises.”
With that thought in mind, Leo Ray’s furrowed brows relaxed.
Just then, a knock came at the door. After getting Leo Ray’s permission, the slender figures of Joshua Bingaman and Orion Wolfe appeared at the entrance.
“Greetings, my Lord!” As soon as they entered the office, they bowed respectfully with sincere expressions on their faces.
Seeing the lingering excitement on their pale faces, it was evident they hadn’t completely recovered from the indulgence of the banquet.
“You may rise.”
Noticing this, Leo Ray smiled faintly and asked, “How was the banquet tonight?”
Speaking of the delicious dishes, Rosie excitedly said, “Especially the vegetable salad made with rainbow lettuce and dragon flame fruit, mixed with the secret egg yolk sauce and cheese crumbs. The refreshing yet rich sweet fragrance was simply the most delicious food I’ve ever tasted!”
“Yes, my Lord, the Rampage Emperor Crab’s seafood chowder was perfect too!”
On the other side, Isla bowed slightly to Leo Ray and said, “However, Serena and Stella seemed quite averse to this dish and avoided it at all costs.”
“Rampage Emperor Crab?” Hearing this, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly and smiled.
No wonder, back then, in the Nightmare Realm of the Half-Elf Barrier, the twins’ greatest fear was these Tier 4 magical beasts.
As if remembering something, Rosie first raised her eyebrows at Isla, then wore a shocked expression and said, “I never thought the Rivers Family’s young miss could eat so much. Ordinary people really can’t afford to raise her.”
“My Lord, don’t listen to her nonsense. I only ate a quarter of the crab leg, no, a sixth at most!” At Rosie’s words, Isla’s face turned crimson, and she hurriedly waved her hands and retorted, “On the contrary, the lady of the Frost Family, who always talks about maintaining her figure and not eating sweets, just finished a large plate of chocolate mille-feuille crepe with dreamy butter!”
“There was no such thing, my Lord. I only tasted one small bite, just one small bite…”
Hearing that, Isla wiped her mouth and her hair became even more unkempt.
Watching the two young noble women revealing each other’s secrets, Leo Ray couldn’t help but shake his head and smile.
On the other hand, both of them soon realized that they had been somewhat inappropriate and quickly regained their composure. They both focused their minds and handed over today’s Qi Condensing Pills to Leo Ray.
“Good work.”
With a faint smile, Leo Ray took the small and exquisite brocade boxes and naturally handed the previously prepared 50 sets of Qi Condensing Pill refining materials to both of them.
Next, after the two bowed and left, Leo Ray began the upgrading process.
Finally, the 15 newly acquired Qi Condensing Pills were upgraded to 730 Qi Condensing Pills and 8 Rose Gathering Energy Pills.
Following that, Leo Ray began counting the quantity of these two expensive magic medicines.
“At present, I have 801 Qi Condensing Pills and 17 Rose Gathering Energy Pills, huh?”
After tallying them up, Leo Ray nodded slightly and pondered in his heart: “Recently, I have provided appropriate amounts of Qi Condensing Pills to the five werewolf warriors squads stationed in the Snow Wolf Clan, the two reserve archer squads in the Half-Elf Barrier, and the five newly-formed Royal Guard Middle Teams in Cyan Town.
This will be enough for these ordinary Tier 1 middle teams to reach the Tier 2 elite middle team level in just a few days, significantly boosting the strength of these areas.”
Nodding as if struck by an idea, Leo Ray sank into thought again: “Among the areas under my command that do not have Tier 2 elite middle teams, there are only Magnet Town and Redarrow City left. However, since Redarrow City is the area where I have already invested a lot of funds and am trying to organize pure mercenary forces, it is temporarily not within the scope of consideration. So, the only area left is Magnet Town.”
Considering this, Leo Ray stroked his chin and thought: “At present, although Magnet Town only has a defense army of 2,000 people, and their strength is relatively weaker compared to other cities due to malnutrition over a long period, 800 Qi Condensing Pills can still create two elite Tier 2 middle teams for this city to prepare for emergencies.”
Having made up his mind, Leo Ray, leaning against the large boss’s desk, contemplated, “In addition, I have instructed the Ned Nathan brothers to greatly improve the welfare and meals of the defense army, significantly boosting their morale.”
