Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Leo Ray slightly turned his head and asked, “Your Excellency, I heard that a while ago, the Ancient Chest that will be auctioned off shortly had been attacked by a group of mysterious people. Will they not come again to snatch it tonight?”

“Haha, young friend Christopher, there’s no need to worry.”

Lord Asher Porter of Viennas City smiled faintly, with an unruffled expression, and replied righteously, “Tonight, the inside and outside of Sanders’ Trading Conference have been heavily defended.

Eight thousand soldiers from the Viennas City Defense Army and several major mercenary organizations currently staying in the city will protect the safety of all guests at the cost of their lives.”

“What an old fox, knowing that he had set a trap himself to lure the mysterious organization while disregarding the safety of other guests, yet speaking so righteously.”

Leo Ray secretly sighed in his heart, “It seems that it is already unlikely to get more information from this old fox. I still need to have Kelsey ask Gael, who is involved, about the situation.”

Making up his mind, Leo Ray drained the tea in his cup and stood up.

He smiled at the other party and said, “It’s an honor for me to meet Your Excellency this time. Since the auction is about to begin, I will not bother you anymore. I’m looking forward to our adventure with you and Master Gael in five days.”

“Haha, let’s not keep you any longer, young friend Christopher. See you at the auction.”

On the other side, Lord Asher grinned and nodded his head.

Leaving the room where the Lord of Viennas City was, under Kelsey’s guidance, Leo Ray and his group went straight to the hall where the third auction was taking place.

Shortly after, as they entered the spacious and bright hall, Leo Ray noticed that the area of this unfamiliar auction venue was almost the same as that of the Starry Sky Hall.

However, the brightness was much higher, and the overall structure was rectangular.

At first glance, under the illumination of numerous crystal chandeliers embedded with Light Crystal Stones, the huge hall was filled with a magnificent and dazzling scene, making people somewhat dizzy.

On both sides of the hall stood two rows of milky-white stone pillars, intricately carved with exquisite human reliefs, revealing an artistic atmosphere.

Moreover, the seating in the hall was entirely composed of booth areas, which were obviously more advanced than the previous Starry Sky Hall.

As for the auction stage, it was located in the front and was currently completely covered by a large, red velvet curtain.

In summary, the overall environment here looked like a luxurious theater with a strong artistic atmosphere.

At this moment, many nobles and merchants gathered in the hall, chatting leisurely.

Judging from the relaxed and happy atmosphere, no one seemed to realize that a storm of blood and violence was about to hit this place.

“Lord, please follow me.”

Kelsey’s clear voice rang in Leo Ray’s ears.

They crossed the bustling crowd and came to the seat that Kelsey had arranged in advance. Leo Ray discovered that their location, which was situated in the middle of the booth area and next to a huge stone pillar, was very inconspicuous, making it convenient for their upcoming actions.

On the other side, seeing Leo Ray coming, Mason Banks and the others from the neighboring table immediately came over to welcome him.

This arrangement was naturally made by Leo Ray, who had asked Kelsey to prepare it in advance.

Kelsey, after greeting Leo Ray, picked up her skirt and hurriedly went to find Gael for more information.

Lord, after a series of investigations, I did not find any abnormalities in the booth area of this hall,” Mason reported softly to Leo Ray. “It seems that the key point should be concentrated in the auction stage area behind the red curtain.”

“My Lord, I only detected slight energy fluctuations from behind the curtain,” Taylor said gruffly, chiming in.”It’s quite clear now, the front half of this hall will be the main battlefield between Lord of Viennas City and the mysterious powerful organization,”

Hearing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but show a contemplative expression.

Then, his pitch-black eyes moved slightly, and he continued while looking around, “When the battle begins, it will inevitably be chaotic. All we need to do is seize the Ancient Chest in the confusion and leave with the panicked crowd.

As for the escape route, it’s simple. Just find the nearest safe room and use the Returning Crystal to escape. No need to leave Sanders’ Trading Conference.”

“Lord, your words are absolutely right.”

On the other side, Mason Banks nodded and continued, “At that time, the area outside the Sanders’ Trading Conference will surely be surrounded by Viennas City’s soldiers, which could easily cause unnecessary trouble.”

“Alright, let’s stop here. We just need to wait for the right opportunity.”

With that said, Leo Ray casually sat down on the soft sofa.

After looking around, he noticed that Tina of the Blue Rose Knights and Layne of the Broken Blade Knights were still nearby, waving enthusiastically at them.

Even the Grand Elder of the Blackwood Clan, who had previously been far away, was now glaring at them with concealed anger.

As for the plump and wealthy nobleman, he was seated at the last row. Judging from the angry expression on his round face, he didn’t seem to be satisfied with his seat.

Just like that, after a while, when all the nobles and merchants had settled in,

Kelsey, who had changed back into her formal attire, came to Leo Ray again before the auction began.

“My lord, I have inquired about the trap. The three Tier 4 mercenaries and other Tier 3 mercenaries employed by the Lord of Viennas City seem to have set up a Magic Array that can even withstand a Tier 5 Powerhouse,”

Then, Kelsey’s clear voice entered Leo Ray’s ear, “So, my father has been assigned to the latter half of the venue, responsible for handling emergencies in the Trading Conference, preventing the powerful mysterious organization from causing destruction and dealing with isolated enemies.”

“A Magic Array that can withstand a Tier 5 Powerhouse? Interesting.”

Hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrow and continued, “But with this arrangement, the problem of your father has a good solution. Linda and Bianca White under the cloak will deliberately cause a commotion outside the venue.”

“Thank you, Lord!”

Hearing this, joy appeared on Kelsey’s pretty face, nodding repeatedly.

“Also, Kelsey, when it’s time to retreat…”

Then, Leo Ray told her his entire escape plan.

“Please rest assured, my lord, I am very familiar with the terrain.”

Hearing this, Kelsey nodded confidently, and a lonesome look appeared on her pretty face as she sighed, “But I won’t be able to see you, my lord, for several days.”

“Practice well, and when the time is right, I’ll take you back to our Territory.”

Leo Ray smiled lightly and spoke.

As they finished talking, the curtain on the auction stage slowly opened.

An elderly auctioneer with white hair in a brocade robe appeared in front of everyone.

“Dear distinguished guests, welcome to the third round of the Viennas City Joint Auction.”

The old and sonorous voice rang out, and the old man on the stage smiled.

“Is it finally beginning?”

Hearing this, an expectant look appeared on Leo Ray’s face as he wondered to himself, “Can the Tier 5 Powerhouse of the mysterious organization deal with the Magic Array capable of withstanding a Tier 5 Powerhouse?”

“It seems that the City Lord’s side is also well-prepared. I must say, it’s quite intriguing to see how the plot will unfold next.”
