Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 3008
Chapter 3008: Chapter 1644: Astonishment and True Colors Revealed
Next to the fountain in the small square, just at the moment when the Market Guard Captain turned around, a brilliant blue magic radiance suddenly burst forth in front of Leo Ray, icy chains with roaring sonic booms shot out, instantly binding the unsuspecting Market Guard Captain and other market guards on the spot.
In the palm of Leo Ray, there appeared a small ice-colored magical scroll, which was indeed the source of this Tier 7 Ice Binding Spell.
“Your Majesty of the Humans, what is this?!”
Zhen beside him couldn’t help but be stunned, looking over with a face full of astonishment, while Rorick and the other Light Elves and the Independent Powerhouses were all in the same state, their eyes wide open.
They clearly hadn’t expected that this young Emperor of the Human Race would directly take action against the market guards, which was undoubtedly declaring war on the Shadow Market!
It’s important to know that even Zhen and Rorick, the powerhouses from first-class forces, would never, indeed dare not, do such a thing!
“Everyone, prepare for battle, they aren’t true market guards.”
Leo Ray cautiously watched the opponents while directing his subordinates to surround them.
Although only the Market Guard Captain was of Demigod Level, and the others were just at half-step Tier 7, Leo Ray remained vigilant.
Upon hearing this, Fei’er, Anna, along with Hollis, Lila, and the leaders and powerhouses from second-tier powers quickly flew out, immediately surrounding the caught-off-guard opponents in the center.
Among them, Hollis, Lila, who had already been subdued as new subordinates, and Fei’er and Anna hesitated not at all. Even the leaders and powerhouses from second-tier powers who hadn’t been subdued yet did the same.
Since defeating the Broken Wing King and undergoing a comprehensive upgrade by Leo Ray, these powerhouses had long since pledged allegiance, even if they had doubts, they still executed Leo Ray’s instructions.
After a moment of hesitation, most of the Independent Powerhouses chose to stand with Leo Ray, drawing their weapons against the market guards.
Your Majesty’s reputation had long been thunderous to their ears, and they clearly understood that the reason Your Majesty managed to stand at the peak of the second-tier power from that small nook of the Human Domain was wisdom.
Thinking thus, Your Majesty would never act rashly. Though they didn’t know the reason, they knew it was an excellent chance to show themselves to Your Majesty!
“They aren’t true market guards?”
Rorick’s handsome face showed a trace of suspicion, and he didn’t immediately take action along with the other Light Elves.
What the Independent Powerhouses contemplated was something they had also thought about. Given the Emperor of the Human Race’s intellect, he wouldn’t rashly act against the market guards without reason.
However, they represented their respective powers and even if they sensed something was fishy, they wouldn’t casually act, or else a misunderstanding could create issues affecting their relations with the Shadow Market, consequences they couldn’t afford.
“Your Majesty of the Humans, are you sure?”
Even Zhen was somewhat indecisive, not revealing his weapon.
Before Leo Ray could respond, the voice of the Market Guard Captain rose, questioning with surprise: “Honored guest, what is the meaning of this?”
The tone was clearly filled with bewilderment and innocence, seemingly unaware of Leo Ray’s reasons for suddenly attacking.
Upon finishing, the tone added outrage, continuing: “Honored guest, you are opposing the entire Shadow Market by doing this!”
Upon hearing this, both Rorick and Zhen looked towards Leo Ray unanimously, their eyes growing more puzzled, though the young Emperor’s boldness impressed them, they wanted more to know his reasons for acting suddenly.
“Captain, since you can hold a guard position in the direct market of the Bazaar Brotherhood and guide us, you all must have been performing your duties here for many years, right?”
Leo Ray ignored the threat and asked calmly.
“Naturally, only the most elite and accomplished market guards are selected here. Honored guest should recognize its significance! The Bazaar Brotherhood would never stand by!”
Seeing Leo Ray remain inactive, the Market Guard Captain grew somewhat impatient, continuing with a command: “Hurry up and release us?”
“If that’s the case, then why don’t you recognize this?”
Leo Ray flipped his palm, revealing the gem that shimmered brilliantly earlier.
“I said just now, we’re guards, not appraisers…”
The Market Guard Captain’s tone grew increasingly irritable, but before he finished speaking, Leo Ray’s voice rose once more.
“This isn’t an ordinary gemstone, but a Communication Magic Stone used in the Shadow Market.”
Leo Ray stared directly at the completely sealed battle helmet of the other, continuing calmly: “To my knowledge, even the lowest-ranked Tier 5 ordinary guards can use it; it’s a mandatory lesson for market guards, let alone someone at your Demigod Level?”
Just as Leo Ray stated, through exchanges with a group of managers, Leo Ray had already grasped everything about the Communication Magic Stone, and had more than one on him.
Leo Ray had brought it out indeed to test if the opponents were true market guards, and naturally, the answer was clear.
“I just thought this gem looked familiar, it actually is the Shadow Market’s Communication Stone!”
With Leo Ray’s reminder, Zhen quickly responded, blurting out: “I’ve personally seen the Guard Captain on the manager’s side use it to communicate with other markets, how could you not know about it?”
As Zhen spoke, a leader among the Light Elf powerhouses also recognized it, whispering to Rorick and a few other leaders, clearly confirming Leo Ray’s words were correct.
It seems Your Majesty’s words are true, these guys do indeed have issues!
Upon realizing this, combined with previous abnormalities, both the Dark Elf powerhouses and Light Elf powerhouses grew fully alert, beginning to slowly surround the opposition.
“Hahaha, hahahahaha!”
Seeing that the charade could no longer continue, the Market Guard Captain burst into loud laughter, speaking with a sinister tone: “Ahead is the trap we meticulously prepared, initially hoping you all would die more swiftly. Given this, let’s begin here!”
As his voice fell, his hands furiously wrenched apart the Tier 7 Ice Chain that had been binding him.
