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

Chapter 1599: Chapter 923: War Spoils and the Lord’s Thoughts_1 Chapter 1599: Chapter 923: War Spoils and the Lord’s Thoughts_1 “The Black Duke, huh? This mysterious vampire powerhouse is certainly no ordinary being.”

Leo Ray looked at the last blood-red storage ring on the table, recalling the not-so-distant past of blood and fire-filled battlefields.

“Somehow he managed to strike a deal with the notorious Sky Pirate Blood Skull, using a stealthy approach that nearly cost me my life. The threat was even greater than that of No. 3 Black robe man who used underground sandworms.”

“Were it not for our Tier 5 powerhouses assembling in time and the arrival of dawn dispersing the darkness, we wouldn’t have been able to kill this cunning fellow who could use vaporization.”

Leo Ray furrowed his brows and opened the attribute column of the blood-red storage ring.

[Name: Bloodthirsty Eye]

[Grade: Tier 4 – Epic (Purple)]

[Defensive Strength: None]

[Additional Effect 1: Space on Finger – Absolute “Can store and retrieve any non-living object at will; storage capacity 100 cubic meters”]

[Additional Effect 2: Bloodthirst “Blood Clan exclusive, enhances the wearer’s vaporization ability”]

[Note: This is a storage ring belonging to the Blood Clan. Only dukes of the Blood Clan qualify to wear it, and it originates from the Ironhand Archipelago.

It is said that in that pirate-infested and labyrinth-like mysterious nation, the Human Clan and Blood Clan have always maintained a delicate balance, unknown to others, making it the only isolated realm where both sides exist harmoniously.]

“So, it seems that the Black Duke is indeed from the Ironhand Archipelago, the most mysterious of all the various human countries.”

Leo Ray gazed at the words in the attribute column and nodded thoughtfully.

The term “Human various countries” refers to seven powerful human nations separated by the impassable Moat of Hundred Ranges, which spans the entire continent.

These are the centrally located Coldflame Kingdom, the Pars Empire in the northwest, the Prairie Kingdom to the south, the Saint Night Kingdom to the east, and the Orchid Federation in the far east.

Among the various Human countries, information about Ironhand Archipelago is undeniably scarce.

One reason is that this sea-surrounded nation has a unique geographical position and has actively severed ties with other Human nations for over a century.

Secondly, it is the only nation among the Human countries that is willing to coexist with vampires.

Since vampires are notorious for causing trouble in the various human countries, this has directly affected Ironhand Archipelago’s reputation, and few civilians and ordinary powerhouses are willing to take a ship to visit.

“It is said that the reason Ironhand Archipelago is willing to coexist with the Blood Clan is that its royal family members all have Blood Clan blood, and it is even rumored that Ironhand Archipelago’s actual ruler has long been the Blood Clan.”

Leo Ray picked up the blood-red ring with a cold touch on the table and started playing with it thoughtlessly.

“What can be confirmed is that the Black Duke does not represent the Ironhand Archipelago royal family, otherwise he would not have sought the help of their mortal enemies, the Blood Skull sky pirates.”

“As for the Black Duke’s ultimate goal in supporting the Great Prince, that remains to be seen.”

Leo Ray put down the blood-colored ring in his hand, and his gaze grew solemn.

“Either way, once I place Ariel Watson on the throne and take complete control of Coldflame Kingdom, if nothing unexpected occurs, the other human countries will soon fall into my hands as well. At that time, I can directly go to Ironhand Archipelago to investigate.”

“With the backing of the nation’s machine and my talent, Coldflame Kingdom’s overall strength will undoubtedly experience explosive growth in a short time.”

Thinking about it in his heart, Leo Ray furrowed his eyebrows again.

Yet, speaking of which, Coldflame Kingdom is located in the central region of the Human domain, bordered by Pars Empire to the north, Grimm Kingdom to the west, Prairie Kingdom to the south, and Saint Night Kingdom to the east. Its geographical location is obviously an unchangeable disadvantage.

If a kingdom is conquered while being betrayed by another nation at the same time, things can get quite unpleasant.

In such a situation, if confronted by an alliance of two or even three nations, the crisis would become even more severe.

“Regardless, I must unite the forces of the various human countries so that I can lead the entire human clan to conquer other foreign races. Otherwise, with the power of just one human nation, there will be no way to fight those long-lived races.”

“After all, in the eyes of those races with profound heritage, the human clan is just like insignificant ants, not even worth conquering.”

“And in the history of the human clan after the Era of Blankness, other than a few arrogant monarchs who attempted to attack foreign races and subsequently led to a massive army being completely wiped out by the opposing patrol team, no one has ever tried to do so again.”

Leo Ray shrugged and continued pondering in his heart.

“Under such premises, when I lead the human army to the doorstep of those foreign races, they’ll probably be shocked.”

Leo Ray smiled faintly, then nodded thoughtfully.

He knew clearly from the information provided by his subordinates, summoned from other continents, that otherworldly lords who had crossed over from Earth were gradually making a name for themselves and starting to conquer territories wildly.

This meant that, given the vast number of lords, full-scale wars between continental plates and platelets were inevitable in the end.
