Nathan smiled and joked, “You didn’t take a Tier 3 magic medicine that enhances strength, did you?”
With a slight shrug, Rhizoma Drynariae nodded and said, “That’s right. If it weren’t for our City Lord giving me two Rose Gathering Energy Pills a few days ago, my strength would probably be even weaker than yours.”
“Huh?”
On the other side, Nathan’s expression turned incredulous upon hearing Rhizoma Drynariae’s somewhat bragging reply.
Originally, he was just trying to crack a joke, but he didn’t expect Rhizoma Drynariae to actually give an affirmative answer!
Keep in mind that this guy never lies!
“But, a Tier 3 strength-enhancing magic medicine costs at least a million gold dragons at the auction house, and he gave you two? How is that possible? Just one is equivalent to the income of an ordinary town for several years!”
At this moment, Nathan had a doubtful expression, silently pondering in his heart, “The key is that Cyan Town doesn’t have any mines. And even if they did, it’s not possible to reward subordinates so easily, right?
It’s impossible for there to be such a good City Lord who treats his/her subordinates like this!”
Despite thinking this way, Nathan’s face still subtly revealed a hint of envy.
In contrast, the Lord of Magnet City, where they were located, was simply beyond description.
“Nathan, you must have heard that our Cyan Town has a new City Lord, right?”
After exchanging pleasantries with him, Rhizoma Drynariae’s expression became serious again and said, “To be honest, I came to Magnet City precisely because I am following our City Lord here.”
“What? You mean the City Lord of Cyan Town is also here?”
Upon hearing this, Nathan once again showed a surprised expression.
“That’s right, our City Lord came here for the residents of Cyan Town who were trapped here.”
Rhizoma Drynariae nodded with a serious expression.
“There is actually such a City Lord who personally came for the residents abandoned here years ago?”
Upon hearing this, Nathan felt a great shock to his worldview and could hardly believe his own ears.
Although he didn’t want to think about it, their Lord of Magnet City was, after all, the culprit behind all this!
By comparison, Nathan, the commander of Magnet Town’s Defense Army, suddenly felt a mix of emotions.
“Well, Nathan, although I would like to continue chatting with you about the golden years we fought together on the battlefield, I believe you should be more familiar with Magnet Town’s current situation than me, an outsider, right?”
Stretching out his big hand to pat Nathan’s shoulder, Rhizoma Drynariae continued, “Why don’t we join forces to solve Magnet Town’s crisis first?”
“Join forces to solve it?”
On the other side, Nathan was taken aback. With a look of surprise on his resolute face, he asked, “Rhizoma Drynariae, are you saying that your City Lord is willing to help our Magnet Town’s residents?!”
At this moment, Nathan’s heart was filled with countless thoughts.
As the commander of Magnet Town’s Defense Army, he knew Magnet Town’s current situation better than anyone.
In recent years, under the control of Magnet City Lord and his two Tier 2 Mine Defense Middle Teams, the entire Magnet Town was on the verge of collapse.
Unlike them, who were born and raised defenders of the town, the City Lord’s henchmen were all evil mercenaries, bandits, and mountain robbers recruited from outside a few years ago.
They were extremely ruthless in their actions, and whether it was the miners of Magnet Town or those from Cyan Town, anyone who did not act according to their way would face serious consequences, resulting in everyone’s pent-up anger.
And their family members were tightly controlled by these people, coupled with the oppression of their City Lord, they were naturally powerless.
That’s why when Rhizoma Drynariae said those words, it was like a glimmer of dawn in the darkness, which instantly caused a huge ripple in Nathan’s heart.
“That’s correct, our City Lord of Cyan Town has made such a plan.”
Rhizoma Drynariae nodded with a touch of pride. “So, Nathan, are you willing to help us?”
Hearing this, excitement filled Nathan’s heart. He looked around to make sure no one was following them before excitedly saying, “I am willing to assist your City Lord!”
And so, moments later, Nathan, the commander of Magnet Town’s Defense Army, arrived in front of Leo Ray, guided by Rhizoma Drynariae.
At this time, they were in a small and inconspicuous wooden house, where the group had been waiting for a while.
Looking clearly at Leo Ray, who was sitting at the top position, Nathan’s eyes revealed an uncertain expression as he silently pondered, “Is this the new City Lord of Cyan Town?
How can he be so young? Moreover, I can’t feel any aura of a powerful person from him, and his entourage doesn’t exude any energy fluctuations either. They seem to be just ordinary people.”
Realizing this, Nathan straightened up his body a bit.
It should be noted that no matter what, he was a true and respected Tier 3 Two-Star expert.
“That said, does the other party really have the ability to help us resolve Magnet Town’s crisis?”
Just as Nathan’s eyes were flashing with doubt.
On the other side, Leo Ray, who was sitting in the top position, nodded to a burly man beside him and said calmly, “Taylor, let’s begin.”
“Yes, my Lord!”
A resounding voice rang out, and in an instant, an overwhelming aura surged from Taylor’s sturdy body.
Like a torrential flood, it instantly enveloped the entire wooden house.
Before Nathan could react,
The next second, a series of powerful auras erupted from Leo Ray and the others, causing the entire room to be filled with energy, almost making it hard to breathe.
After a while, the dumbfounded Nathan finally recovered.
It turned out that in the whole room, his strength… was the weakest.
