Chapter 2257: Chapter 1255: The Lord’s Castle, Renewed
Leo Ray’s face still bore traces of curiosity, which only grew more intense.
“I’m sorry, my Lord, I cannot say for certain.”
After concentrating for a while, Little Jie shook her head helplessly and said, “I just feel a gentle aura permeating here, which makes me feel very at ease.”
“A familiar gentle aura?”
Leo Ray gently stroked his chin, feeling that this vast underground space was becoming increasingly mysterious.
As one of the key holders to the mysteries of the Era of Blankness, Little Jie possessed the [Stone of God].
Moreover, Little Jie, who could exert Tier 6 strength, had a perception much keener than other Tier 5 Stone Spirits like Little Illusion. Given she sensed something, it was likely accurate.
“Could the underground space of the Lord’s Mansion also be a key element in unveiling the secrets of the Era of Blankness? But what kind of connection could there be? It’s simply baffling.”
Leo Ray frowned slightly but soon relaxed.
It’s obvious that Little Jie and the other [Stone of God] are divine creations.
Since the Otherworldly Lords were summoned through the power of deities, it means that the upgradable Lord’s Mansion is also a specially designed miracle building by deities.
It seems there is indeed some connection between the two, that is, they are both considered divine creations.
“Could it be just this point that makes Little Jie feel familiar? Or is there really another purpose here?”
Thinking this, Leo Ray took Little Jie for another round in the underground space, hoping to find new clues. However, nothing else was discovered.
“Never mind, perhaps when the Mansion is further upgraded, we can discover its true purpose here.”
With this thought, Leo Ray did not linger further and led Little Jie back upstairs to the first floor.
Returning to the magnificent staircase, this time, Leo Ray ascended via the spacious new staircase and arrived directly on the castle’s second floor.
As he stepped onto the last staircase, a noticeably wider castle corridor unfolded before Leo Ray’s eyes, appearing elegant and bright.
With Little Jie, whose face was full of wonder, walking around the corridor, Leo Ray discovered.
This circular corridor now had twenty bedrooms, each equipped with a private washing area with a bathroom, almost identical to the initial Lord’s Suite.
Besides, there were fully functional rooms like a tea room, warehouse, entertainment room, and training room, all well-equipped.
“This undoubtedly greatly enhances the quality of life for the subordinates. It’s simply perfect, allowing subordinates to rest and relax better, and it’s undoubtedly a crucial aspect of enhancing combat power.”
Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction, then came to a large metal door connecting to the Arrow Tower.
In every corner of the circular corridor, there was a metal door, perfectly corresponding to the four extending arrow towers.
Beside the metal door, there was a separate guard room for ease of patrol and rest, a layout that could be described as all-encompassing.
Under the curious gaze of Little Jie, Leo Ray opened the metal door and entered the Arrow Tower.
Apart from the usual shooting and observation ports, there were also many Magic Cannon ports and battlements, making it exceptionally well-defended.
“Under heavy protection, although it seems a bit redundant, it’s ultimately an indispensable part of the castle. Unless the Lord’s Mansion is transported alone, but to my knowledge, even if the territory is transmitted as a whole, it includes other surrounding buildings.”
Leo Ray shrugged and proceeded with Little Jie to the castle’s third floor.
On the subsequent third and fourth floors, the environment layout was identical to the second floor, everything looked upon was fresh and new.
“A total of 60 bedrooms? Not only has the number of rooms on each floor increased, but an entire additional floor has been added!”
After consecutively inspecting two floors, Leo Ray nodded slightly with a most satisfying expression.
This was sufficient to meet the living requirements of all main force subordinates, especially since many subordinates do not live within the territory.
“Next, it’s time to check my exclusive rooftop floor.”
With a flash of anticipation in his eyes, Leo Ray headed directly to the castle’s fifth floor.
Pushing open the metal door leading to the top floor, Leo Ray gazed around.
Under the illumination of magical wall lamps, the spacious corridor was radiant with golden light. Whether in decoration style or the intricate details, it clearly surpassed the previous floors by one level, filling one with immense pleasure.
“It’s indeed my exclusive space, noticeably more comfortable.”
Leo Ray’s gaze wandered as he ventured into the deeper part of the corridor.
After a thorough inspection, Leo Ray noted.
Whether it was his Lord’s Office, trophy display room, large study, dressing room and equipment storage, large indoor training ground, or the fully equipped super-large Lord’s Suite, each became more spacious and luxurious, dazzling the eyes, with luxury and nobility everywhere.
“Even the exclusive area of Lion Castle’s King isn’t quite like this, flawless in every aspect.”
Leo Ray strolled slowly along the wide, bright castle corridor, nodding with satisfaction.
Notably, the manufacturing magic array in the Lord’s Office not only could manufacture a significant number of new items, but the array itself also increased by one.
This undoubtedly meant that he could work on two different items simultaneously.
“When I manufactured the top-tier alchemist tools a few days ago, it took me two whole days to meet the needs of the alchemists. If it were now, it would only take one day, wouldn’t it?”
“During this time, not only do I need to manufacture a vast array of building blueprints, but I also need to produce various sundry items. Now with the aid of two manufacturing magic arrays, I’ll be more efficient.”
“After all, with Quinn Serena and others’ limited Mansion level, although it provided considerable help, many advanced items and building blueprints still require me to personally take action.”
Thinking this, Leo Ray continued with his inspection.
Apart from the previous ones, this time the Lord Exclusive floor also added numerous new rooms.
Upon a sequential inspection, Leo Ray further noticed,
the newly added rooms totaled seven. Besides two exclusive servant bedrooms, two sub-master bedrooms just below the Lord’s Suite, a flower room, and a kitchen, there was even a large swimming pool.
It not only incorporated numerous water system magic arrays and wind series magic arrays, maximizing the restoration of real ocean conditions, but also had an illusion matrix specifically simulating a beach. Entering the room was akin to arriving at a sunny seaside, leaving one amazed.
“This is what you call imperial enjoyment.”
In his astonishment, Leo Ray lightly raised his eyebrows,
After a round, Leo Ray took a long breath, his gaze turning solemn once more.
Despite now standing at the peak of authority, wealth, and prestige in the Human World, with my strength in the first tier and living a luxurious life that ordinary people can hardly aspire to, under the premise of the Great Catastrophe and Board Warlands, these are insignificant.
Because above all, there is responsibility and mission.
Only by unraveling the unsolved mysteries of this world, clarifying all truths, and integrating resources across the board, can I have the chance to protect this land and the people who follow me. Otherwise, everything will be obliterated, including myself, so naturally, I will not stand idly by.
“Right, during the next summon of new subordinates, I should ask in detail about the situation of other Lords in their respective board zones. This is undoubtedly my only way to access messages about other board Lords.”
With eyes like torches, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.
Based on recent understanding, I have already learned.
Although on this piece of land, there are those who accept the summons from other board Lords and depart.
However, after I completely quelled the Human World’s disputes, this situation became exceedingly rare. Many ordinary generals and strong individuals who received summons also chose to decline.
However, other people on the boards may not be so lucky.
With such thoughts in his mind, Leo Ray suddenly realized something, furrowing his brows tightly.
