Chapter 745: Chapter 539 Your Highness, Please Don’t Spend Any More, Stay Calm

"Is this the Material Plane?"

Magdalena looked out into the wilderness ahead, eager to complete the quest "Black Phosphorus King’s Fury Flame," so while the Undead delivered the message, she decided to focus on securing the set, garnering the favor of a powerful giant dragon.

A massive Undead city stood upon the wilderness, a city that paled in comparison to the War Throne and Newbie Village, and even some Beast King’s castle domains, appearing like a backward primitive small town.

Yet, within such a narrow and dilapidated city, it was packed with people.

The number of Undead was ludicrously high, some were even pitching tents outside.

With the dreary wind, the treeless wilderness, and the occasional blowing of yellow dust, Magdalena couldn’t grasp why they would remain here.

Could there be a powerful being here?

She inquired of the giant Wolf, and the reply from the giant Wolf was simple: There was only a "weaker" being with 5 rings of power, hardly noteworthy.

Magdalena, who already had a sufficient understanding of the Undead, approached with an expressionless face, and just as she thought, the Undead ignored her, and many of them seemed to not even recognize her.

Face blindness? It seemed so.

Only after arriving in the city did she understand why so many Undead had gathered here—it was due to a competition being held.

Undead from all over the Material Plane had come, and some even returned from other planes, just to participate in this competition.

"Just this?" Magdalena was full of question marks.

She truly couldn’t comprehend the pursuits of the Undead.

The pressing priority now was to retake Misty Rain City, and even though she had agreed to concede the city to Lind, her original intent as part of the human side would not change.

Even if Misty Rain City was not a concern, the Black Phosphorus king, the giant dragon, was also of great importance.

To ignore the true matters at hand, to forgo embracing the powerful allies, and to immerse oneself in a racing contest held by a 5-ring weakling.

"Let’s go take a look."

Magdalena moved closer and discovered that there were many racing tracks and a variety of "games."

After looking through a game manual for a while, she had an epiphany.

"I understand."

Giant Wolf Badge: "?"

"Look, this here is the wilderness, this map shows Snow Mountain, and here are the chaotic peaks... With my understanding of Lind Armand, he must be planning for the Undead to help him clear this area of hostile forces."

She had done similar things before, using the Undead to help the Corrupt King assault and conquer territories, hoping to pave a road from the west to Misty Rain City. Unfortunately, Lind later exerted his influence and took away all the Undead, and the cities that they had insufficient manpower to hold were taken back one by one.

The Giant Wolf Badge wanted to say you’re overthinking it, but in the end, it didn’t speak.

"Let’s participate in one!" declared Magdalena, "to see what tricks might be inside."

It was only then the Giant Wolf Badge finally spoke: "You need to collect materials to forge the set, and to kill a 5-ring enemy."

"But I believe understanding Lind’s actions is more important."

Magdalena paid the entry fee.

"This one’s not bad, a city switch race."

The Mechanical Demon Servant with a smile said, "You must prepare your own racing chariot."

"Can’t I race in my own way?"

"No, this is a racing contest; fairness must be ensured." The smile on the Mechanical Demon Servant’s face appeared annoying to her for the first time.

"Then where should I go to buy a chariot?"

"There is a chariot shop here." The Magic Servant brought over a scroll, smoothly slid it, and a chariot’s Magic Illusion emerged, along with an introduction to its advantages and disadvantages, and its price.

"I must inform you that all chariots can only be used in the racing contest and cannot be taken away."

"What?"

Magdalena felt she had already figured out Lind’s pattern.

Selling chariots.

No wonder she would be completely cleaned out when dealing with the Undead, while on the other hand, Lind’s business grew bigger and bigger, and he always had tricks to snatch money from the Undead’s hands.

Giant Wolf Badge: "This symbol is the same as Armand’s ’!’, hailing from the hands of the same Divine Power."

The Giant Wolf was referring to the patterns and text that emerged on the scroll, crafted by a deity skilled in both artistry and writing, an ability that seemed flashy but useless in practical combat.

Yet it was with such a thing that Lind managed to create a unique function for himself.

Think of all the other Lords in Magic Land. Their tasks involved handwritten scrolls or orally delivered orders, unable to achieve such directness, let alone one to many communication.

Magdalena, however, was not surprised: "He is surrounded by many deities, it’s quite normal for him to possess some abilities."

"I’ll buy!"

With a chariot, she quickly gained the opportunity to race.

A small Teleportation Circle transported them to different locations, and her own chariot awaited right in front, alongside a dozen other competitors.

Magdalena’s chariot was a mundane mule cart for hauling.

"Wait, what is that?" Magdalena eyed the chariot parked next to hers.

It was like it was made of Gold, the hubs were inlaid with gleaming Magic Runes, and it was more than three times the size of her mule cart; moreover, it was pulled by a juvenile Earth Dragon!

Giant Wolf Badge: "It’s not a Dragon; it lacks the aura of a Dragon. It’s as if it’s wearing a skin."

It could sense quite clearly.

Others at the scene also looked enviously at the juvenile Earth Dragon Chariot, especially when a heavily armored warrior holding the reins stood on the chariot, some already let out envious howls.

"3"

"2"

"1"

"Go!"

The race began, and the juvenile Earth Dragon sprang out ahead with agility.

The rest slowly followed, and as the last one, Magdalena could only watch them overtake her helplessly.

Even the fastest running juvenile Earth Dragon managed to lap her.

"Yo, yo, yo, going for a stroll?"

Furious!

Eventually, Magdalena was out of sight, tirelessly driving her mule cart. But no matter how hard she tried, the cart couldn’t go fast, making her wish she could carry the cart on her back.

When she finally reached the finish line after much struggle, the Undead riding the juvenile Earth Dragon Chariot was already waving from the podium.

There was also a speed ranking.

Waiting for her were the Undead’s smirking taunts; this bunch was best at gaming, skilled at making others lose their cool. Who cares about manners in a competitive game; sarcasm is like daily bread.

Magdalena stormed off the race track, fuming, and found a Mechanical Demon Servant.

"You said the competition was fair, didn’t you? His chariot is not the same as mine! Why does he get an Earth Dragon Chariot and all I have is a mule cart?"

"You purchased a C-grade chariot, his is a modified B-grade chariot," the Mechanical Demon Servant slid the scroll, focusing the image on the juvenile Earth Dragon Chariot.

The price was a hundred times that of a C-grade chariot, far beyond what she could afford.

The smile never left the Mechanical Demon Servant’s face: "To have a faster chariot, you can purchase a quicker one. If needed, you may also upgrade it, improve its speed, train the temperament of your steed, and pick your preferred patterns."

Meaning—you need to spend more Gold!

Magdalena took a deep breath.

Giant Wolf Badge: "Your Highness, please stay calm! Don’t forget why we came here!"
