Inside the castle, there was no extravagant decoration or elegant grand hall.
Instead, there was emptiness, like a bottomless black hole, seemingly capable of swallowing anything.
Observing this, Leo Ray’s steps faltered, and his face was filled with astonishnt.
The scene before him, combined with the gigantic door of the building, made the entire black castle look like a huge black beast with its bloody mouth wide open.
It was completely incompatible with the surroundings, creating an intense sense of dissonance.
Moreover, Leo Ray could clearly sense that
the energy particles in the black hole were much more chaotic than their surroundings.
Even gusts of wind had ford, howling and causing pain on people’s cheeks.
“This is indeed the Mirage area!”
At this mont, Scarlett’s clear voice rang out, explaining: “Lord, the energy between heaven and earth in the Mirage area is the richest and most chaotic place in the whole Mirage.
Therefore, under the influence of the chaotic energy flow, the landscape cannot be completely and accurately reflected, resulting in this chaotic phenonon!”
“That’s true.”
On the other side, Gideon Black bowed slightly, stroking the tal skull necklace on his chest as he spoke to Leo Ray: “Lord, although the Mirage looks terrifying and seemingly abyss-like, it is actually not dangerous at all. Please rest assured, my Lord.”
“So that’s how it is.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but curl his lips slightly.
Originally, he had been looking forward to seeing if he would et the master of this majestic city inside.
Now it seed that this wish was unlikely to co true.
“Well, the giant city by the forest, the bizarre pelican emblem flag, and the black castle in the city center… Maybe one day, I will stand at the top of this city, looking down at everything leisurely, it’s still unknown.”
With that thought, Leo Ray refreshed his spirit and said to his subordinates, “Alright, let’s continue.”
“As you command, Lord!”
At his words, the team once again ford the exploration formation they had been in earlier.
Under the guidance of the two powerful figures, Taylor and Gideon Black, they continued to march towards the Mirage area.
Next, they braced themselves against the increasingly fierce wind, stepped into the pitch-black interior of the castle, and Leo Ray looked around.
Despite the surrounding void and the absence of any light, their own figures were clearly visible.
Moreover, the positions where their feet stepped on would produce ripples, gently rippling like they were walking on water.
“I must say, this unusual sensation is quite special.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow in surprise and continued moving forward.
After about five or six more minutes of walking, Leo Ray noticed that
scattered figures began to appear in the emptiness around them, lying on the ground.
From their appearance, it was clear that they were rchants and travelers who had accidentally entered the Mirage.
These people were all pale, motionless, lying on the ground with their chests slightly heaving.
Just like what Gideon Black and Scarlett had described, they were all in a deep unconscious state.
“Lord, look!”
Imdiately, Linda’s energetic voice called out.
Following the direction of her pointing, Leo Ray saw that,
not far ahead, there were many crookedly parked wagons filled with goods.Above the carriages, there were carved shiny golden deer emblems.
Without a doubt, that was the symbol of Sanders’ Trading Conference and the emblem of the Sanders Family.
“My Lord, it seems Kombu and the others are indeed here!”
Looking at the familiar emblem, Linda, who was the president of Cyan Town’s Sanders’ Trading Conference branch, couldn’t help but show a hint of joy on her pretty face.
Unquestionably, if Kombu, who was the president of Cyan Town Chamber of Comrce, really disappeared.
Then, for the comrce of Cyan Town, it would clearly be a significant blow.
“Let’s go over and take a look.”
After nodding slightly, Leo Ray imdiately took his steps forward.
When they approached, their subordinates couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, showing delight one after another.
Lying across the carriages, big and small, were the obese rchant Kenneth, as well as the mbers and rcenaries of the trading conference.
Of course, there were also the horses on the carriages.
Moreover, perhaps it was due to the horses going mad before fainting.
A few carriages had already overturned, and scattered from them were a large amount of White Jade Ore.
“Lord, it seems that Kombu and the others were the first to mistakenly enter the Mirage, and most of their auras have beco very weak. If we had co any later, I’m afraid they would have lost their lives here.”
After checking on Kombu and the others, Gideon Black bowed to Leo Ray and said, “I have just infused so Life Force into them, and they will be fine for the ti being.”
“My Lord, Uncle Priest is right. The chaotic energy flow in the Mirage, although ineffective for Tier 3 and above powerhouses, poses various extra illusions and indeed fatal threats for ordinary people if they stay in it for too long.”
On the other side, Scarlett approached with her small steps and added, “To fully wake them up, we’ll have to completely dispel this Mirage.”
“Understood, let’s start working then.”
Hearing that, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Then, after hesitating for a mont, he continued, “After dispelling the Mirage, we’ll leave via the original route before everyone wakes up, without alerting Kombu and his party, as well as the other trapped rchants.”
Pausing for a mont, Leo Ray continued, “This way, our whereabouts will remain unnoticed by anyone.”
Without a doubt, after Gideon Black’s recent probing, it was confird.
The powerful mbers of the mysterious organization had all left this place.
When Kombu and the others wake up, they would naturally continue moving towards Cyan Town with the goods.
“However, doing so will delay the upgrade of the Miracle Building, the Light Healing House.”
Realizing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but frown slightly.
While thinking, he checked the amount of White Jade Ore here and found that there were about 6000 units in total.
“To successfully upgrade the Light Healing House to Level 2, a total of 4000 units of White Jade Ore is required. Currently, there are already 3000 units in the territory, aning that we only need another 1000 units.”
At this mont, Leo Ray’s eyes lit up and he continued to ponder.
Based on the previous building upgrade experience, even if all 6000 units of the White Jade Ore were taken back, it wouldn’t be enough to upgrade the Light Healing House to Level 3.
So why not take 1000 units from each carriage, equally? In doing so, others would have no way of telling the difference.
When Kombu and the others wake up, even if they discover sothing, they would only think that they accidentally lost it when they entered the Mirage.
With that in mind, Leo Ray didn’t hesitate and imdiately jumped onto a carriage, lifted the oilcloth covering its surface, and began the operation.
In no ti, he successfully obtained 1000 units of White Jade Ore.
“With this, the 24-hour automatic Battlefield Hospital can be upgraded another level!”
At this mont, Leo Ray’s face couldn’t help but show a hint of joy..
