The Boss King actually disguised himself as a novice village chief?!
Chapter 125 - 125 116 Former Territory Lookout Tower

125: Chapter 116 Former Territory Lookout Tower 125: Chapter 116 Former Territory Lookout Tower Lind only took Reed and Leo away from the Star Dragon Ridge outpost and, using the map Han provided when they left, they arrived at the stream between the outpost and Prey Town.

Having passed by here many times, Lind never once thought of following the river to see where it led.

Human inertia is truly frightening, so much so close by yet all ignored.

The road ahead was muddy, with both men clad in heavy armor.

Although Lind’s armor was completely trashed, he carried the Carrion Queen’s Broken Sword on his back, and his own weight was heavier than that of an ordinary person, which made him wade through the muddy riverbank, one deep step after another.

“Looks like we’ll have to wade through the water ahead,” Reed took the initiative to move forward, and removed the torch from his waist.

After waiting for a moment, a small flame burst from the palm of his hand.

He brushed the torch with his palm, igniting it.

“Smack!” Lind walked over and slapped Reed on the back, making him stumble forward, “Do you really have to use this method to light it?”

His own ability wasn’t so great, but he still wanted to show off.

Reed chuckled and said, “Sir, I just wanted to show you a display of my magical ability.”

“You’re terrible at it!” Lind didn’t hold back his sarcasm.

He himself knew how to use the power of the flames the first time he tried, but these two were still standing in place waiting when using “Clore’s Fury.”

“Let’s go!”

His voice echoed as he spoke.

The road ahead was pitch-black, but the torch provided enough light that their vision wasn’t too greatly affected.

The path was long, and Lind estimated that the underground waterway was much longer than the Dragon Tooth Mountain Road, though they didn’t run into any trouble along the way.

Coming out of a cave, Reed instantly snuffed out the torch.

The broken moonlight spilled down, and the sky was completely dark.

Unknowingly, they had walked from day to night.

The moment the moonlight enveloped Lind’s body, the Moon Halo on his chest began to pulsate.

His body felt better than ever!

Lind, feeling as though he had taken several doses of Miss Miko’s moonlight enhancement, took a deep breath and adjusted his condition.

It was easy to become engrossed in strange states of mind; he now preferred the night over the day.

“Wait here for a while; first, let’s check our surroundings.”

“Yes!” “Yes!”

The two immediately transformed into sentries to scout the area, while Lind took out his Magic Potion.

His Supply Flame Knight potion was almost used up, now only lacking an Upper Rank Calamity Heart ingredient.

The boiling Magic Potion in the bottle became even more active under the moonlight, the surface bubbling like magma.

Before it became too hot to handle, Lind uncorked the vial and, holding his breath at the burnt scent, poured the Magic Potion into his mouth.

He strongly suspected that Miss Miko hadn’t put her heart into making this batch of Magic Potion, otherwise, why would the taste be so much worse than before?

He almost had to force the potion down.

His cells came alive once again.

The quiet Sun Halo also began to leap, sensing a similar power.

The alternate pulsing of the sun and the moon was erratic, now bright, now dim.

“Sir, there are carriage tracks around, some people must have passed by in the last few days.”

“What about the map?”

“Here!”

Spreading out the crude map drawn by Han, it was abstract, but as soldier, there was absolutely no mistake about the accuracy of the map.

Lind pointed at the map, “We are here now, at the cave exit east of the Red Dragon Foothills.

North from here is the Leon Territory.”

He looked up towards the north, but the darkness obstructed his vision, and the shattered moonlight didn’t allow them to see too far.

Moreover, they were currently at the bottom of a slope, and the undulating path ahead blocked their view, so to see the Leon Territory, they would have to stand at a higher position.

Bowing his head, Lind’s attention returned to the map, “The Leon Territory is not far from here, but they probably don’t know about this route; otherwise, they wouldn’t have taken the Dragon Tooth Mountain route.”

“Here,” his finger slid downwards, stopping at an intersection.

The intersection, shaped like a trident, had a prong extending towards the southwest, while the tail of the prong pointed towards the Leon Territory.

It was clear from how precisely Han had drawn the map that the Second Legion had been eyeing the Leon Territory for a long time but hadn’t made a move due to a lack of strength.

The upper prong of the trident made a loop, extending deep into the northern Red Dragon Foothills.

The middle prong stretched straight towards the southwest.

The lower prong pointed south, where “Former Territory Watchtower” was marked—the destination of Lind’s journey.

“Let’s go, we’re pressed for time.”

When Lind arrived at the “Former Territory Watchtower,” the sight of the Second Legion soldiers, ragged but spirited, stirred his heart.

This group had an impressive aura.

Indeed, they were elite troops who had fought their way up from the bottom, and even after the apocalypse, their ferocity was sky-high.

“Sir!”

Two figures approached Lind, and his eyes brightened.

The man at the front had a pair of antlers on his head.

Mutation!

He had seen most terrifying mutations, like the black Knight, who had turned into a half-man, half-horse monster, completely losing his sanity.

He also saw mutations that could still be controlled, like the Two-Headed People.

“Lance?” he recognized the person.

“I am honored to meet you again!” Lance bowed, and as a former Divine Archer of Rand Kingdom, he had a higher reputation, had been in contact with more Nobles, and had seen Lind, who was part of the circle of the core of the Prince, more than once.

However, the two had little interaction.

“I am pleased as well,” Lind walked beside Lance and hugged him warmly, showing great enthusiasm, “As a knight loyal to Her Majesty the Queen, you know how thrilled I am to see you all again!”

Although Lind had been repeating in his mind that he hoped to trade the Queen’s death or madness for Prince Cote’s sanity, facing the people of the Second Legion, he still professed his allegiance to Her Majesty the Queen a few more times with his lips.

If there were an Old Nobility Lord from the Queen’s faction alive and well like himself, perhaps he would have to stage an “Armand’s betrayal” someday.

Lind always kept a slight distance from Her Majesty the Queen in his heart.

His gaze shifted to Bard, whose skin still looked as special as ever.

Compared to Lance, who was often seen by Nobles due to his archery, Armorer Bard had not officially met Lind, mostly just glancing from afar.

“Subordinate Bard, at your service, Sir!”

Bard’s mutation was more severe than Lance’s, he had four arms.

“Looks like we have a lot to talk about,” he moved next to Bard, grabbed and patted his shoulder, then reached for one of Bard’s extra arms and gave it a squeeze, “Does it function like normal?”

“Even better!” Bard laughed heartily, not minding at all that he had become non-human, as it was his assurance for surviving in this world.

“Good,” Lind nodded.

Now that Lind’s identity had been confirmed, it was time for the main discussion.

“How much do you know about the Leon Territory and the nearby Holy Water Town?”
