CHAPTER 1465 THE PURPLE DEMONIC ZONE
Boom!
In a flash, Ramonâs spiritual sword shot out and hit the Dagger Dome. However, his strength was still a little inferior to Rocky's, and thus it was a long shot for him to break the Dagger Dome that easily.
âI didnât expect to have such a surge of power after breaking through to the King Realm. Itâs an amazing feeling.â Ramon couldnât help but sigh as he looked at his hands.
âAwesome, right?â Rocky said with a bright smile.
âYeah. Canât be better! Thank you so much,â Ramon responded as he cupped his hands. If it wasnât for Rocky, he wouldnât know when he would be able to reach the King Realm. For any spirit warrior, it was very important for them to break through to the King Realm since it was the watershed of their strength. After they reached this level, it would be as if they had entered an utterly different and vast stage.
âWell, thereâs no need to thank me. I did this to return your favor. For now, I still want you to keep inquiring about the news for me,â Rocky replied casually.
âNo problem. Iâm on it.â This time, Ramon received such a big favor from Rocky. Even though he was a man who seemed to be stone-hearted, there was no doubt that it would soften a little towards Rocky. Moreover, he was continuously having a different view of the young man. He knew that although Rocky had a lot of secrets and mysteries surrounding him, he could still fully trust him.
âSo, letâs go?â After saying that, Rocky instantly got out of his Magic Spiritual Space with Ramon.
âBy the way, I think it would be better if you do not expose your current strength right away. Iâm afraid that it would easily arouse some suspicion. You could wait for a better opportunity,â Rocky warned.
âYes, of course. I guess Iâll go ahead then.â Ramon nodded slightly and eventually left.
âMarcia, Alyssa, I wonder where you are right now.â As Rocky watched Ramon leave, he looked up at the sky above the wide beast farm and revealed a deep longing in his eyes.
Meanwhile, as the mating went rather smoothly between Glutton and Ally, Allyâs emotions had stabilized. After confirming that it successfully got pregnant, Rocky asked Glutton to go back to his Magic Spiritual Space, which made it quite unhappy. However, it also understood that a matter of safety was on the line, so it agreed to him.
On the other hand, although Rocky obtained some news about Marcia, he couldnât act rashly because this wasnât sufficient. For now, he could only stay a little bit more in the Sword Spirit City and wait until he collected enough information. Material © of .
Moreover, since he had become the deputy captain of the Cloudlet Team, he had been much busier than before. He couldnât go frequently to the Fragrance Pavilion now, but he still went once in a while in order to guide Tessa in the cultivation of the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill. After all, that was his deal with Timothy and Harrison for him to stay in the city. Recently, Tessa had been getting more comfortable with the skill, but to improve further, she had to rely on her own efforts.
Furthermore, since he was now a little busy to frequently go to the Fragrance Pavilion, Tessa was the one who visited him whenever she had something to inquire or clarify. Therefore, naturally, several rumors were spreading throughout the city concerning the two of them.
Because it was also known that Tessa was engaged to Miguel, it actually put Rocky into an awkward situation. But unexpectedly, since Rocky issued Miguel a warning last time, the latter had never made any trouble yet, as if he didnât care about the circulating rumors. Of course, Rocky didnât think that Miguel would just give up like that, but nonetheless, he was not threatened by anything.
Half a month passed quickly and nothing out of the ordinary happened. Everything seemed to be in place and at peace.
During this period, Rocky had already successfully transformed the embryo he produced through asexual reproduction into a cub. Moreover, the growth rate of the cub was several times faster than being carried inside a female beast's womb. As long as the cub took shape, it would be able to hatch into new cubs.
Additionally, through the genetic comparison that he had done, Rocky was able to find out why Hannah couldnât become a spirit warrior, and he had also come up with a theory and a plan on how to change her genetic defect.
Just after noontime, Rocky had already managed the affairs of the Cloudlet Team and was about to head back to the beast farm when Ramon suddenly came in.
âCaptain, I thought you were out with Miss Hannah today?â Rocky asked as soon as he saw Ramon enter the lounge.
âI have an urgent task to deal with, so I had to come back first,â Ramon briefly replied.
âUrgent task? What is it?â Rocky furrowed his brows and was a bit curious.
âDo you still remember the Robber Regiment that ambushed us in the Night-wolf Gorge last time?â Ramon asked.
âThe Robber Regiment? Of course, I do,â Rocky replied.
âWe just got a reliable intel about their stronghold. Thus, the governor asked me to lead a team to investigate the matter first. But considering the strength of their members, I think it will be better if the two of us do the scouting alone. If we encounter any trouble, we can easily get out of it without worrying about othersâ safety. What do you think?â Ramon suggested.
âYeah, sounds good. Count me in!â Rocky immediately agreed.
âOkay, Iâll meet you here. Get ready first because it may take a few days,â Ramon said.
âThereâs no need for that. Iâm always prepared and ready to go!â Rocky said in an eager tone as he waved his hand.
âFine. Letâs go.â Ramon showed a faint smirk and didnât say anything more.
Then, Rocky and Ramon left the Sword Spirit Sect and headed directly for the Grand Sky City after leaving the city.
Meanwhile, in the lounge of the Wolf Team, Miguel and Xavier were silently sitting when a member of the Wolf Team approached them.
âYoung master, they have already set out,â the member of the Wolf Team reported.
âI see. That would be all. You can leave now,â Miguel replied flatly.
âIt seems that our plan is going smoothly. Ramon and Basil didnât have any suspicion about this. If everything goes well, I promise that those two will never come back aliveâ¦â A sinister smile appeared on Xavierâs face, confident that their plan to eliminate the two would be faultless.
âRamon is also a powerful warrior. Can the Robber Regiment really deal with both of them?â Miguel asked with a little hesitation.
âDonât worry. Iâve learned that there are also many powerful warriors at the King Realm in the Robber Regiment. It means that no matter how strong those two are, they would be severely outnumbered,â Xavier answered indifferently.
âGood. Even though those two are careful and cunning, Iâm sure that they wouldnât see through our scheme,â Miguel said with a wicked grin.
âThatâs true. But we still have to be cautious with the aftermath. If the sect leader looks into the matter, we have to be sure that he wouldnât doubt about anything,â Xavier suddenly said with a serious tone.
âTheir mission is within the responsibility of the Sword Spirit City. Even if they die, it will just appear that they are killed while on duty. That kind of stuff happens. No one will doubt about it!â Miguel said haughtily.
Half a day later after leaving the Sword Spirit City, Ramon and Rocky arrived at an inconspicuous post house on the road between the Grand Sky City and the Sword Spirit City.
âThere is actually a post house in this kind of place?â Although the post house appeared to be rather ordinary, Rocky felt that it was pretty strange for it to be located at such a place.
âThis is not an ordinary post house. This is a monitoring post of the Sword Spirit City, and being a post house is just a front. With this, we can monitor everything within a mile. There are actually twenty of these places scattered near the Sword Spirit City,â Ramon explained.
âOh, I see. That makes sense,â Rocky said as he nodded.
Then, Ramon entered the post house first while Rocky followed closely. Soon, the two of them saw a middle-aged man at the seventh grade of the Spirit Realm inside.
âTyson." Ramon immediately cupped his hands as he greeted the man inside.
âOh, Ramon. What brings you here?â Tyson answered back, surprised to see the captain of the guard team.
âWell, we are on a mission,â Ramon briefly replied.
âAnd who is this young man?â Tyson asked as he saw Rocky, which obviously looked unfamiliar to him.
âHe is Basil. Heâs a member of my team and he has just arrived in the Sword Spirit City not long ago,â Ramon introduced as he glanced at Rocky.
âNice to meet you!â Rocky greeted as he cupped his hands.
âOh? I heard a lot about him. So, heâs that guy who had been causing quite a sensation in the Sword Spirit City recently?â Tyson remarked as he wore a surprised look on his face. âI didnât imagine that youâd be this young. I heard that youâve already broken through to the King Realm. You must be very talented!â
âHa-ha. Iâm very flattered," Rocky responded politely.
âBy the way, Tyson, weâre here because we need the topographic map of the Purple Demonic Zone. Please lend me the latest one.â Ramon went straight to the point.
âThe Purple Demonic Zone? What are you going to do there? That place is very dangerous,â Tyson asked as his face instantly got serious.
âWell, we have to sneak into the zone to investigate the stronghold of the Robber Regiment and make sure that they really have a hideout in there,â Ramon answered straightforwardly.
âWhat? I donât think so! The terrain there is very difficult to access. Moreover, that place is a nest of powerful monsters. Just by common sense, it would be impossible for the Robber Regiment to establish a hideout in there. Iâm not too sure, but the tip you acquired might be wrong,â Tyson said as he shook his head.
