Chapter 208: Two Bandits
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The castle was indeed huge but its core location was in the middle.
Noticing that there were some items made of gold in the palace, Locke picked them up and fed them to the Golden Dragon.
When they came over, they caught a well-dressed n.o.ble.
Locke looked at the horrified face and asked, “Where is the family’s treasure room, library, and storage area for important things? Take us there!
“And where is the office responsible for communicating with the royal family? Are the doc.u.ments still there?”
The old man and the young man looked like bandits entering a rich family’s home.
The n.o.ble was so frightened that he swallowed his saliva.
He said with a trembling voice, “I… I have a schematic… don’t… Don’t kill me… I’ll take you there…”
Being so frightened, the n.o.ble naturally did not dare to lie to them.
Hobrick was just afraid that the n.o.ble would be too scared and fainted before he could bring them to their destination.
Locke also noticed this problem. Seeing that all the gold items in the hall had been eaten, he put the Golden Dragon back into the spatial inventory.
At this moment, two “traitorous” guards escorted a person over.
It was Gilbert’s eldest son, the heir to the throne of Wind City, His Highness Prince Francisco! His legs went weak and knelt on the ground.
“Child! You go to the treasure room with this guy and I’ll go to their confidential office and work separately. We’ll meet here later!”
“Just take it directly? Do you need some legal doc.u.ments to do so?” Locke asked tentatively.
“Yes! Just take it directly! The evidence of the rebellion of the Frederick family will definitely be found! When the time comes to wait for those organizations to take it, it’s better for us to make the first move!”
After saying that, Hobrick got a guard to bring the previous n.o.ble along as they headed deeper into the castle.
“Let’s go. Make me happy. Let’s see how many good things you guys have plundered over the years…” Locke was extremely satisfied with Hobrick’s att.i.tude! He revealed his pure white teeth.
…
The royal family had lived up to its name.
Compared to other n.o.bles, they were not only rich but they possessed numerous treasures.
As soon as he entered the underground treasure room, Locke’s eyes were dazzled!
Diamonds and gold coins were scattered on the ground like garbage that no one wanted.
All kinds of artworks and antiques were piled up like sundries!
“Don’t you want to introduce them, Mr. Guide?” He looked at Francisco, who was still shivering.
Looking at the cold eyes of the other party, Francisco felt a chill on his back and immediately said, “The… The things here are all very valuable! Not to mention that they are as rich as a country! It should be enough to buy half of the Holy City!”
Half of the Holy City?
Oh my G.o.d!
One had to know that the Holy City was one of the top three bustling cities in the southern end of the Federation!
Its population was already several million, close to ten million!
The land was even more vast!
To be able to buy half of the Holy City, this was already an astronomical figure that was difficult for a human brain to estimate!
Locke was very satisfied. It would not be long before he could really become rich!
However, Locke immediately regained his consciousness. Compared to money, there was probably something more worth having.
“All these years, did your family doesn’t collect any books or techniques?”
“Yes! Yes! Please follow me!” Francisco immediately answered and led the way.
They arrived at a stone house.
There were many books inside.
However, most of them were buried by the dust.
“Go! Read the names and functions of the books to me! If you miss one, I’ll pull out one of your teeth!” There were too many books here, so Locke could not be bothered to read them one by one.
The intimidation was very effective.
Francisco immediately went forward and began to report the names of the books.
Basic knowledge of the forest system, aerial combat techniques, control of wind power, wind combination techniques, how to use Battle Beasts to create airflow, inventory of known wind Battle Beasts…
Hearing the names of these cla.s.sics, Locke was very disappointed.
These were all the basic courses of the Federal Academy, nothing new at all.
There were many more powerful cla.s.sics than these!
While Locke was disappointed, he also understood how wise it was to choose the Federal Academy back then!
“Enough! Enough! Just tell me the most precious and the rarest! If I find out that you’re lying, don’t think you’ll get away from here! Never!”
After exchanging blows with Locke, Francisco understood that this person was a vicious and merciless type. Of course, he did not dare to lie.
Francisco came to a bookshelf and opened a stone mechanism. He took out a book from a secret compartment.
This book was not considered big and it was held in a diamond-inlaid bag.
“It must be a treasure…” Locke directly took it out.
“The method to raise the quality of a wind-type Battle Beast?”
From Francisco’s point of view, this was another question that tested his life and death.
He immediately replied, “We… It’s very easy for our Wind City to hatch wind-type Battle Beasts! In the outside world, raising the quality of a Battle Beast is nothing more than continuous practice. It’s very simple! But my family’s ancestor has developed a method that can quickly raise the quality of a wind-type Battle Beast, so it’s very useful. The success rate was quite high. You also have wind-type Battle Beasts. This book will definitely be of help to you. Can you spare my life…”
Locke recalled the Battle Beasts that he had fought with earlier.
Locke seemed to have discovered something strange, but he could not put his finger on it.
Francisco immediately explained, “It’s like this… You’ve seen my brother and my Battle Beasts… When they hatched, their levels were very low. We used the method in this book to quickly raise the level of the Battle Beasts…”
With that said, Locke finally understood. Indeed, when he fought with the Battle Beast that controlled the tornado, he realized that it was not a level one Battle Beast.
“But… My brother’s mana isn’t enough to control the One-eyed Cyclops to fight for a long time, so he’s eager to fight with you to see who wins…”
So, that was how it was!
It was not surprising that kid had used his ultimate skill not long after!
In addition, his control was not good.
It turned out that Orlando could not control the Battle Beast because it had leveled up too quickly!
However, Locke did not have such a problem! If he converted his mana into water, he could blow up this huge castle!
This wind-type Battle Beast upgrade method would definitely be useful in the future!
Gale Wings could be upgraded in two ways in the future!
“What is the success rate?”
“As long as you master it, about 30%…”
Hearing this, Locke’s face immediately turned black.
