Chapter 797: Chapter 520: The Hidden Storm_1

Determined, Leo Ray stood up from the throne and ordered his subordinates, “All right, everything in the territory will proceed as usual. As for the other main subordinates, get ready to set off. We’ll head to the Dimensional Storm to explore later.”

“Yes, Lord!”

Upon hearing this, the subordinates sitting below saluted in unison.

Next, Leo Ray went up the spiral staircase behind the hall and returned to the third-floor Lord’s Office.

The first thing Leo Ray did when he returned to the office was to inform Patrick Pain, who was also in the Pine Sound Range within the territory, to prepare for their teleportation.

Immediately after, Leo Ray contacted Kelsey in Viennas City, instructing her to coordinate with the Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps and lay the groundwork for his upcoming negotiations concerning their hiring.

Before this, Leo Ray had already learned:

The contracts of these Dragon Tooth Mercenary Corps powerhouses with City Lord Asher had expired the day before yesterday. Currently, they were in an idle period without any tasks.

So, there wouldn’t be any conflict regarding contracts.

Just as Leo Ray had arranged everything properly:

A formidable aura, accompanied by a chilling gale, suddenly swept in through the half-open door.

The fur on the Red Velvet Carpet previously laid by Old Steward Warren Dexter in the middle of the office could not help but quiver.

“Well, judging from the aura, Ariel Watson has successfully advanced.”

Just as Leo Ray thought of this:

A slender silhouette appeared at the doorway, gently knocking on the half-open door while poking her delicate fair face in.

This person was none other than Ariel Watson, who was ecstatic.

“Come in.”

Seeing the elated youngest princess of the Coldflame Royal Family at the doorway, Leo Ray smiled faintly.

“Yes, Lord!”

Gently pushing the door open, Ariel Watson kneeled on one knee without hesitation and saluted Leo Ray, “Subordinate has successfully advanced to Tier 4 Level as per Lord’s expectations!”

At this moment, the joy on Ariel’s face was undeniable.

You must know that for ordinary powerhouses with decent talent:

To advance to the level of Tier 3 Powerhouses who can fight against a hundred opponents throughout their life of dedicated cultivation is equivalent to reaching the peak of their lives and gaining the respect and admiration of the majority.

And Tier 4 Powerhouses who can fight against a thousand opponents are the beings that all Tier 3 Powerhouses can only look up to, which proves it all!

A Tier 4 Powerhouse is capable of changing the fate of an entire family singlehandedly!

Civilians who become Tier 4 Powerhouses can become upper-class nobles with territories as long as they’re conscripted by the Royal Family.

And Tier 4 Powerhouses from minor nobles can jump several levels in nobility and inherit titles without being replaced, earning the admiration of their descendants.

Of course, for Ariel, who is already part of the Coldflame Royal Family, these things are not that important.

Most importantly, from this moment onwards:

She stood at the same level of strength as her three royal brothers, truly on equal footing with them!

“With Lord’s help, I’m no longer the weak princess who was trampled on and assassinated!”

Thinking of this, Ariel took a deep breath, her eyes shining brightly.

On the other side, Leo Ray had already opened Ariel’s Attribute Column.

[Name: Ariel Watson]

[Occupation: Great Mage of Light]

[Tier: Tier 4 One Star]

[Loyalty: 100]

[Skill 1: Streamlight Arrow ‘Active’ (Light Attribute Magic Single Target Attack, with Piercing Effect, Exceptional Effect Against Dark Attribute Targets)]

[Skill 2: Aurora Shining ‘Active’ (Light Attribute Magic Area of Effect Attack, with Blinding Effect, Exceptional Effect Against Dark Attribute Targets)]

[Skill 3: Light of the Firmament ‘Active’ (Light Attribute Magic Wide Area Attack, with Blinding Effect, Exceptional Effect Against Dark Attribute Targets)]

[Skill 4: Radiant Holy Mark ‘Active’ (Light Attribute Detection Magic, capable of discovering hidden treasures, magic mechanisms, and secret magic chambers)]

[Skill 5: Light Magic Mastery ‘Passive’ (Significantly increases damage when using Light Attribute Magic)]

“Not bad, you’ve mastered an even larger range destructive skill, huh?”

Closing Ariel’s Attribute Column, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.

Undoubtedly, this meant that after Gideon Black, Scarlett, Serena Clark, Stella Clark, Joshua, Burt, and Joshua Bingaman, he now had the eighth Tier 4 Powerhouse capable of fighting against a thousand enemies in his ranks!

“My powerhouse team is growing stronger and stronger!”

Helping Ariel up, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel elated in his heart.

Then, Leo Ray briefly explained to Ariel his analysis of the Dimensional Storm.

“I didn’t expect a Dimensional Storm to occur in the Pine Sound Range as well…”

Upon hearing Leo Ray’s words, a thoughtful expression appeared on Ariel’s fair face.

“As well?”

Noticing the unusualness in Ariel’s words, Leo Ray’s brow furrowed slightly.

“Not hiding the truth from Lord, a century ago, starting with my grandfather’s generation of the Coldflame King, a Dimensional Storm would occur in the Coldflame territory every few years.”

With a solemn expression, Ariel continued, “At first, due to the tremendous power of the Dimensional Storm, it often caused entire cities to vanish, with no plants or living beings remaining.
