Chapter 199 - The Mysterious and Luxurious Secret Base
Chapter 199: The Mysterious and Luxurious Secret Base
When Mill found out her father was not home, she was like a horse that had broken free from its rein, celebrating wantonly.
Fox approached Mill and reminded her in a low voice, “Miss Mill, Young Master Moss is still around. You should…”
“It’s okay. Moss will just pretend he didn’t see anything. I believe he won’t tell anyone about my reaction either, right, Moss?” Mill looked at Moss with crescent moon-like eyes, so cute that one could not possibly resist.
“Yeah, I’ll just keep what I saw in my heart,” Moss said faintly, then locked his gaze onto Fox. He realized how quickly Fox caught up to Mill.
Moss knew how fast Mill was, but he did not expect an old butler like Fox to be even faster.
Fox noticed Moss looking at him and thought Moss was shocked by Mill’s behavior, so he repeatedly saluted and said, “I’m sorry, Young Master Moss. I’ve made a fool of myself!”
Moss admired Fox even more when he heard how Fox spoke to Mill. Under normal circumstances, no matter how powerful the butler was, he would not speak to Mill that way. It only meant that Fox was of a higher position in the family.
“N-No, it’s okay, sir!” Moss replied.
Fox was stunned when he heard Moss’s response. He smiled mysteriously at Moss and bowed again.
Hearing this, the old Butler was stunned. Then, he gave Moss a mysterious smile and bowed again.
“Let’s go. Take us to the training base, Fox.” Mill, on the sidelines, made a face at the old butler, held his hand, and walked to the back of the hall.
“Don’t you and Young Master Moss need to rest for a while?” Fox looked at Mill in surprise.
“There’s no need. We slept in the car just now. There’s no time like today, so let’s seize the moment!” Mill held Fox’s arm and continued walking forward as she spoke.
Fox wanted to say something but stopped himself. He looked at Mill with even more surprise before looking at Moss again. He did not find anything strange about the duo and enjoyed Mill’s support as they walked toward the training base.
At the same time, more than twenty men in black suites followed the trio into the hall. After walking for about twenty minutes, they finally stopped in front of a giant five-meter-tall mural.
Although these twenty minutes passed by quickly, Moss felt like he was walking in a maze. He wondered how long it would take him to get to where he stood if he walked alone.
Creak!
Moss was admiring the beautiful mural when a crack appeared in the middle, separating the mural into two sides. A moment later, a wide entrance appeared before them. Moss saw the words “Secret base” on the entrance.
It was unknown what Fox pressed for a second time, but the door slowly opened. “Please come in!” Fox respectfully gestured for the two to enter.
Moss nodded and followed him into the secret base when the lights lit up. What Moss saw shocked him. Although he looked calm on the surface, his heart was turbulent.
Golden threads and scales decorated the walls, and all the chandeliers had expensive jewelry inlays.
“Young Master Moss, let me show you around,” as Fox spoke, he led Moss around the secret base.
Moss felt like an influential person inspecting the place under Fox’s in-depth tour and twenty men following them, but the more he listened to Fox, the more shocked he became.
He understood the secret base’s layout after listening to Fox’s explanations. There were four sections to the base. One was the primary training area where one could improve quality parameters using several advanced equipments.
The second section housed several Mystic Realms of various levels. Moreover, one could choose realms suitable for their class.
Various levels of equipment and potions were in the third area. Just like Mill said, there was everything Moss could ever need there. Most were high-star equipment sets.
The final section was the martial arts practice area. Here, one could practice their specific martial arts or spar with others.
“What do you think, Moss? Is everything to your liking?” Mill whispered to Moss when she noticed how engrossed he looked around.
“With such excellent training facilities, I don’t think you will need to leave this place to become a powerhouse,” Moss expressed his inner thoughts.
“It gets boring staying in this place for too long,” Mill replied leisurely.
“Miss Mill, I think what Young Master Moss said is quite reasonable. You could just train here and not go anywhere else, so your father won’t have to worry about you,” Fox seized the opportunity to say what he had wanted for a long time. Fox also looked at Moss gratefully as he spoke.
“It’s my choice to be out there. All right, we should train now. If we need anything, we will call for you,” Mill impatiently said as she pouted.
Clap, clap!
Fox clapped twice and bowed to Moss. Then he called for the twenty men to follow him and quickly disappeared from the duo’s sight.
When the others left, Mill said smilingly, “Moss, we should go to the primary training area first. My family’s most advanced strength and speed training equipment are there. You will undoubtedly gain something from them.”
‘Of course!’ Moss finally discovered why Mill and Fox’s speed and agility were so high. He nodded and followed Mill to the primary training area.
It was rather dull in that section, but the two witnessed each other training as if their lives depended on it. Their camaraderie stimulated Moss’s competitive spirit as he continued to focus on his training.
Meanwhile, a pair of sparkling eyes watched the two training through the surveillance footage. The person stroked his white beard and laughed, “Master was right. Young Master Moss’s presence is indeed a great help to Miss Mills’s advancement!”
…
After three days and nights of rigorous training, Mill could not hold on any longer and finally collapsed. Moss saw this and immediately stopped to rush to Mill’s side. “Are you okay?! Here, drink some water.”
Mill felt better after hearing Moss’s concern for her. She drank two mouthfuls of water and calmed herself. “I’m okay. I was just a little tired.”
Mill only pushed herself that hard because of her competitive spirit. She only wanted to keep up with Moss, even though she could not compare to him.
She looked at Moss and thought of something. Then she anxiously said, “Moss, see if your speed and agility have increased.”
Moss nodded and dashed toward the martial arts practice area. Soon after, his figure flashed a few times and returned to Mill’s side again. He said excitedly, “Thank you, Mill. My speed and agility have increased!”
Mill’s mouth was agape from shock. She could not help but blurt out, “Your speed has doubled in just three days. You are a true genius, Moss.”
Then her tone changed, and her eyes focused. She feigned seriousness and said, “I might have to charge you for using our facilities next time.”
Although she said that, she felt delighted in her heart. ‘Nice! With my help, Moss can become even stronger. It’s such a great feeling!’
“Hahaha, I don’t think I can even afford this place,” Moss smilingly said as he went to look for a stamina potion for Mill.
