Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1287 - Chapter 1287 Chapter 768 Distant Threat_2

Chapter 1287: Chapter 768: Distant Threat_2 Chapter 1287: Chapter 768: Distant Threat_2 “My Lord, if not for you, I’m afraid we, who had just graduated, would’ve been destroyed along with the academy…”

The pretty female priest leading the group, still filled with excitement, tearfully said to Leo Ray.

“Rest assured, as your new master, I can guarantee that no enemy can harm you in my territory.”

Leo Ray gently patted the still trembling shoulders of the priestess. His words were filled with undeniable authority and reassurance, gradually stabilizing the panicked emotions of the female priests.

Afterward, through a thorough understanding, Leo Ray learned the following.

This team of 500 female priests was selected from various Temples of Light and were elite priests studying at the Temple’s Academy.

The Temple of Light was, of course, a neutral organization, similar to the Temple of the Holy Light.

The pretty female priest at the forefront was Faith, the student council president of the elite priests and the captain of the first priestess squad in the academy’s guard team.

Originally, after completing a five-year course, the now much-improved Faith and her peers were to return to their respective branches of the Temple of Light to perform their duties.

However, just as everyone was reluctantly preparing to return to their respective homes, the kingdom where the academy was located was attacked.

“My Lord, those sudden enemies were terrifying. They could turn any dead people into ferocious undead, completely immune to light magic.”

Faith’s pale cheeks showed a hint of fear as she swallowed and said, “In less than two days, the kingdom’s capital fell completely.”

“Our academy was located within the capital and caught in this disaster. After the academy’s instructors who were assisting the local soldiers fell, we were prepared to defend the college relying on the Holy Light defensive barrier, but the opponent’s summoned undead fusion monsters broke through the barrier.”

“Just as the barrier was completely shattered, and the many fusion monsters were crazily smashing through the walls, we, who were only inches away from these terrifying monsters, received My Lord’s summon and escaped the disaster.”

While Faith’s chest, wrapped in her white priest robe, rose and fell, she continued, “Fortunately, the others in the academy and the wounded soldiers we treated had already left the capital through secret passages. I hope they’re all safe and sound.”

“So, the bloodstains on the other priests’ robes are from the wounded soldiers?”

After listening to Faith’s words, Leo Ray pondered for a moment before nodding and praising, “Your courage to cover others’ retreat until the very last moment is unparalleled.”

“Perhaps it’s not merely me who summoned you by chance, but your bravery that truly saved you.”

Leo Ray nodded at Faith and the other priests, then continued with a smile, “As your lord, as your master, I am proud of you all.”

“My Lord, you are too kind! If not for you, we would have been ravaged and dead.”

A tear still hung on Faith’s long eyelashes, as she gratefully bowed again.

“I have one last question.”

Leo Ray took a deep breath, then solemnly asked, “Were you all attacked by an otherworldly lord who suddenly descended?”

“Yes, My Lord, you are correct.”

Faith nodded heavily, responding, “I have seen one of those guys outside the barrier. They are completely unlike our righteous Lord, their eyes filled with rage and madness. They even sacrificed their own soldiers to create those horrifying fusion monsters.”

“Is that so?”

Looking at the remaining fear on Faith’s fair face, Leo Ray took a deep breath.

Things were becoming clearer and clearer; he had already witnessed the power of two otherworldly lords from different continents, both capable of destroying nations.Even though they were small nations that he could easily control, this was enough to raise his vigilance. It was difficult to estimate how many he had not seen yet.

At this point, the situation was self-evident.

“It seems that in addition to exploring the many unknown mysteries of this world, and guarding against the unknown catastrophes, another reason for me to become stronger has emerged.”

Leo Ray looked at his neatly standing subordinates and furrowed his brows.

What awaited him ahead were undoubtedly more intense and unexpected battles, a threat from afar.

“Or perhaps, whether it’s the unsolved mysteries of this world, the unpredictable catastrophes, or the wars between the lords, they may all point to the same truth: the real reason behind the billion lords’ advent, and the ultimate truth of this magical and strange world.”

As Leo Ray thought this, he opened the attribute overview interface for Faith and the others.

Their occupations were Holy-Light Priests, and their overall strength was roughly equivalent to Frank and the others among the five new priest squads.

The majority were hovering between Tier 2 Seven-Star and Tier 2 Eight-Star, while the commanders were all at the Tier 2 Peak.

In terms of passive skills, the priests all carried Healing Mastery, Purification Mastery, Light Magic Mastery, and Fast Meditation.

As for active skills, they also possessed techniques that complemented each other in healing, support, and attack, such as Healing Light, Purifying Light, Holy Light Barrier, Holy Light Protection, Sharp Blessing, Holy Light Bullet, and Holy Light Meteor.

In short, in terms of overall strength, Faith and the other new subordinates were clearly superior to ordinary Holy-Light Priests, belonging to the type of attack and support healing.

“With these 500 elite priests, the overall strength of my territory will increase significantly! The combat and survival abilities of the soldiers will also be further improved!”

With joy, Leo Ray placed his hand on the storage wooden box beside him once again.

Accompanied by a ripple of spatial energy, 500 sets of Tier 3 pure white priest robes, Tier 3 metal magic staffs with healing amplification, and 500 Tier 3 storage rings appeared out of thin air.

Although Tier 3 priest robes and Tier 3 healing magic staffs were rarer than magic robes, they were still insignificant in the face of Leo Ray’s vast equipment reserve.

After raising the loyalty of Faith and the others to 100 points, Leo Ray proceeded with his plan and directly used 300 Recruitment Orders.

As the dazzling golden gates dissipated with the wind, there were 300 slender figures standing in front of Leo Ray.

These subordinates had an even mix of men and women, all wearing black robes, pointed mage hats, and holding long magic staffs engraved with strange patterns.

“Three mage squads? This is just what I needed to make up for the lack of magical power in my territory. Together with Gunner Santons and the half-elves with restored magical power, my territory won’t lack magicians anymore!”

“Most importantly, these three mage squads are well-organized and obviously not summoned directly from the battlefield.”

Delighted, Leo Ray looked at the respectfully standing Scarlett, Finley, Daisy Sasha, and Daisy Zuman with a sense that he might have realized something.

Unknown if it was a coincidence, the magicians he had previously summoned twice were all from the mysterious Magic Tower, just like Scarlett.

If there were no accidents, perhaps these three well-organized magician squads also came from the same place.

As expected, as Leo Ray’s gaze fell on Scarlett, her big starry eyes lit up, and she blurted out, “My Lord, I never thought you would summon these guys!”

As Scarlett finished speaking, Finley and the other three mage squad commanders also showed surprised expressions and nodded in agreement.

“Oh?”

Looking at their astonished faces, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and said expectantly, “It seems I’ve summoned yet another formidable force.”
