Chapter 391 The Eyes of Illusionary Light 1

On the other side, they stared at the brilliant sunlight shining through the window.

The faces of Crystal Archduke Beren and Silia couldn't help but show an ecstatic expression.

They both looked at Leo Ray, who was standing lightly not far away, with deep reverence.

Without a doubt, it was the arrival of this young otherworldly lord that brought a new dawn to the Crystal Kingdom!

Having thought of this, Beren and Silia did not hesitate, and once again deeply lowered their heads towards Leo Ray, expressing their gratitude with actions.

"No need for such formalities. From now on, you will fight for me, and I will lead you to new heights and never-before-seen worldly scenery."

Nodding towards the two, Leo Ray looked at the bloodstained castle hall.

After a brief contemplation, he did not immediately inquire about Burt's situation, but instructed the two to take care of the aftermath here first.

"Yes, Lord, your subordinate will take you to castle's guest room to rest immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Silia bowed slightly, and then with light steps, walked in front of the team.

Thus, they arrived at a quiet room in the castle, and after signaling to the nearby attendants to rest at will.

Leo Ray nodded to the departing Silia while sitting on the soft leather sofa, deep in thought.

Through the last words of the necromancer Brandon, it can be known.

At this stage, in the fierce competition for the throne among the three princes of the Coldflame Kingdom, some high-ranking officials of the neighboring Saint Night Kingdom have also noticed this rare opportunity.

They plan to expand the border conflict on this occasion, launch a large-scale attack on the Coldflame Kingdom, and then start a full-scale war.

After all, although the intervention of their powerful forces led to the severe defeat of the Coldflame Army, resulting in the loss of many viable forces.

However, due to the timely arrival of reinforcements from the Coldflame side, both sides are once again in a deadlock, and no one can move forward.

But even after the victory, the newly crowned king of Saint Night hesitated and could not make the final decision.

Therefore, to not miss this great opportunity, the pro-war faction of the Saint Night Kingdom's high-level officials secretly hired the Necromancer Brandon.

They were planning to secretly assemble a force of undead soldiers, forcibly breaking the current stalemate on the border, where both sides are equally matched.

"I have learned some information about the profession of necromancer before this.

A necromancer of a Tier 4 level can roughly control a small team of Tier 3 skeleton warriors.

Or a middle team of Tier 2 skeleton warriors, or a large team of Tier 1 skeleton warriors.

In addition to the caster himself, the total strength is roughly equivalent to 2,000 ordinary Tier 1 soldiers."

Thinking of this, Leo Ray took the hot tea that Abigail handed over with a bow.

He continued to ponder, "But, if our side hadn't appeared and Brandon had successfully summoned the transformed Moon Wolf tribe members into skeleton warriors according to the plan.

Their total strength would, without a doubt, be greatly increased.

In addition, the defeated skeleton warriors on the front line can be replenished here.

Therefore, with the tens of thousands of soldiers on each side of the border and the situation where both sides are evenly matched.

Brandon's undead legion is indeed enough to break this balance.

Of course, the premise is that the controller, Brandon, is always in a state of full magical power.

Once his magic power is exhausted or Brandon dies, the undead legion will naturally be destroyed."

Realizing this point, Leo Ray picked up the white porcelain cup, took a sip of the steaming fragrant tea, and began to ponder again, "In summary.

Through this incident, it can be clearly known.

At this stage, Saint Night, located next to Coldflame, is already in a state of eagerness, ready to seize the opportunity to expand the scale of the war.

However, for me, this is not a bad thing.

On one hand, the border area between Coldflame and Saint Night is still far from my territory, except for a few large fortresses.

Behind it, there are cities like Pinehaven City, forming the second line of defense.

On the other hand, as a hidden third force, we can naturally adapt.

Selectively help one side based on the real-time dynamics of both sides, and maintain the balance once again.

Or, as I have done before, use one side to firmly restrain the other."

With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Leo Ray first drank the tea in his cup and then fell into deep thought: "Speaking of which,

at the moment, compared to Coldflame Kingdom, the information we have on Saint Night Kingdom is still very limited.

It seems that we need to strengthen the information gathering work in this area."

Making up his mind, Leo Ray put down the white porcelain cup in his hand and took out the newly acquired storage ring, starting to play with it casually.

"There are some strange items stored in this ring, making it difficult to determine their specific value.

So, I might as well store them for now. Maybe they will come in handy in the future – who knows.

Of course, the ring upgrade is still essential."

With this in mind, Leo Ray's thoughts slightly wavered.

After transferring all the items in the storage ring to the other storage ring[Blessed Golden Eye]on his hand,

he immediately began the upgrade.

The next second, a familiar prompt sounded in his ear.

[Congratulations, your 'Tier 3 Accessory: Ghostly White Eye' has been upgraded to 'Tier 4 Accessory: Illusionary Light Eye'!]

"Upgraded straight to Tier 4? Not bad." Slightly raising his eyebrows, Leo Ray immediately opened the attribute column of the new ring.

[Name: Illusionary Light Eye]

[Grade: Tier 4 -Epic (Purple)]

[Defense Strength: None]

[Additional Effect 1: Space on Finger – Absolute 'Can store and retrieve any object without life breath at will, space capacity is 100 cubic meters']

[Additional Effect 2: Illusion Light – Ordinary 'Slightly enhances illusion magic effects when using illusion magic']

[Note: This is a storage ring of an unknown race. During the forging process, high-purity Illusion Crystal fragments were added,

giving it the function of a storage ring while also enhancing the wearer's illusion ability, making it extremely rare.]

"Interesting, a storage ring that can enhance illusion abilities? Although it has no meaning for me, it's perfect for Olivia to use."

Nodding with satisfaction, Leo Ray's thoughts moved, and a brand new white metal ring appeared in his palm.

Immediately after, he did not hesitate,

injecting a strand of his energy into it, actively erasing the energy imprint left when he checked the items in the ring before, so it returned to an unowned state.

Next, Leo Ray connected with Matthew, Olivia and Mason Banks, who stayed in Cyan Town, through mind talk.

After briefly greeting them, Leo Ray ordered Matthew to escort Olivia to Cyan Town to standby immediately, and Mason Banks would be there to meet her.

Just as everything was arranged,

Crystal Archduke Beren and Princess Silia of the Moon Wolf Tribe appeared in front of Leo Ray once again.
