Chapter 157: Chapter 142: Unexpected Incident

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Surrounded by the crowd, a few players watched as Qingqiu and Ferguson swaggered into the Scarlet Chamber of Comrce.

The way those high-level NPCs smiled at Qingqiu made them crush their teeth.

“What about your arrogance? Don’t you have any dignity?”

After the group of high-level NPCs left, a lower-level manager who was unqualified to assist Ferguson into the hall for a eting suddenly saw a few players who had not made any movents.

He was already in a bad mood, so he found them even more annoying.

He quickly walked over and reprimanded them loudly.

“What are you guys looking for?! That’s Lord Ferguson. How can you look at him like that??

“Hurry up and go to the warehouse to move the next batch of goods!

“Why don’t you take a look at your own identity?!”

The few of them suddenly felt as if lightning had struck them…!

“Why can’t we just take a look???

“That Vice President of the Scarlet Chamber of Comrce has personally opened the carriage door for Qingqiu!?! Why don’t you go and question him???”

When they thought of this, sorrow began to rise in their hearts.

They were all players, and various high-level NPCs treated Qingqiu as distinguished. Various high-level NPCs surrounded him as they ate, drank, and waited.

Yet, not only did they not have the qualifications to go in, they even had to f*cking carry the goods…

They were all human, so why was the difference so vast?

The Scarlet Chamber of Comrce did not sll good for a mont which they had spent so much effort to enter…

However, these players did not know that Richard had not noticed them at all.

There were too many people. And they almost squeezed their seats into the bushes nearby.

They did not know if these guys, who had suffered a trendous blow, would be hurt again if they knew this news…

Ferguson led Richard and the higher-ups of the Scarlet Chamber of Comrce to exchange so pleasantries. Ferguson quickly sent them away in the na of dealing with important matters.

Then it led Richard into a luxurious room.

Countless defensive magic arrays marked the surrounding walls. From the looks of it, they were probably able to withstand the dragon’s breath.

They would only think the rchants were afraid of death even if outsiders entered.

Ferguson’s identity was the best disguise.

Richard saw that after the door closed, no one from the crowd followed in. He could not help but feel a little puzzled.

Ferguson saw his confusion and said with a trembling voice.

“The Scarlet Chamber of Comrce has no connection with the Scarlet Council. The Scarlet Chamber of Comrce is a genuine and legitimate Chamber of Comrce. The mbers inside are all residents of Templar City with clean backgrounds.”

With a wave of hand, Ferguson removed the Concealnt Power that enveloped its entire body. It revealed the striking magic inscription on his forehead.

“There is a powerful magic array carved in this room. Outsiders are unable to detect it…”

As soon as it finished speaking, Ferguson, who had been full of vigor just a mont ago, spat out a mouthful of blood. And its breathing imdiately beca sluggish.

It was like a strong wind had blown and could extinguish a candle at any ti.

“I can’t delay any longer. The injuries on my body have already worsened…

“The power of that drop of holy dragon’s blood has been completely exhausted. I have to return to the Scarlet Council imdiately…”

Richard quickly helped Ferguson sit down.

He opened the status panel and found that the negative buff that reduced all attributes by 50% had increased to 70%.

He imdiately asked when he saw the situation didn’t look good.

“How do we enter Templar City?”

He hadn’t gotten his hands on the dragon crystal yet. It was an A-rank hero.

Ferguson let out a long breath, and its face turned even paler.

It looked at the carpet embroidered with exquisite patterns from the corner of its eyes.

“Help lift the carpet.”

Richard nodded. He bent down and slowly lifted the thick carpet.

A striking colorful pattern with deep religious connotations appeared on the ground.

But other than that, there was nothing unusual, not even the slightest magical fluctuation.

“There is a crystal bottle in the corner of the oak bookshelf… Bring it here and pour the powder inside it.”

Richard imdiately got up and found the crystal bottle from the bookshelf by the window. Crystal clear powder filled the crystal bottle that looked like glass fragnts.

He unscrewed the bottle cap, slightly tipped it over, and tapped the bottle’s opening with his finger.

The powder inside was sprinkled slowly on the floor.

A sparkling light flashed in an instant. And a magic array hidden in a pattern slowly appeared in front of his eyes.

Richard’s eyes lit up. “Holy shit! How could this thing be so hidden?”

Ferguson saw that the magic array was not surprising, and he imdiately breathed a sigh of relief.

“This is a two-way teleportation circle, connected to the magic circle in the city… It’s an item I found in the ancient ruins.

“This teleportation circle is different from other ordinary magic circles. It doesn’t consu the magic power in the surroundings but directly uses the power of space. The movent is seriously delicate. And even the top-tier mages can not detect it.”

Richard’s eyes lit up. This thing was distinctly a high-quality treasure. He did not know if he could get his hands on it…

Ferguson dragged its seriously delicate body to stand up. Richard imdiately helped it to stand in the center of the magic array.

A mysterious spell sounded. In an instant, the magic array on the ground flashed.

The space in front of them began to blur.

In the next second, the two appeared in a spacious basent.

The surrounding walls flashed with the sa magic inscriptions as Ferguson’s bedroom.

The floor was painted black and reflected the light of the magic lamp.

The first thing Richard saw was a middle-aged one-ard guardian who stood from a stool.

When the one-ard guardian saw Ferguson appear from the magic circle, its eyes revealed an unconcealable shock and fear.

Its expression repeatedly changed as if it had not expected the guest to appear.

However, when it found the other party’s aura was seriously delicate, it imdiately suppressed its emotions and tried its best to restore its natural state. Its tone was sowhat dry and excited.

“Lord Ferguson, you’re finally back. Elder David and the President are waiting for you…”

Richard’s eyes narrowed… There was sothing wrong with this guardian.

He opened the attribute panel and glanced. It was a level-9 hero. Its attributes were ordinary and nothing special.

Ferguson, whose injuries rapidly deteriorated, was distracted and did not notice these details.

“Activate the magic array and send us to the headquarters…”

Richard’s expression was a little ugly. ‘This was only a transit station?’

The one-ard guardian was delighted when it heard this. Then, it sharply gazed at Richard and lowered its head as if it did not dare to look at him and Ferguson.

It turned around and took out a bottle of red powder from a few boxes placed together on his back.

It walked not far from them and sprinkled the powder on the ground.

A sparkling light flashed, and another magic array appeared in front of them.

Ferguson braced himself.

“This is special access to the Scarlet Council Headquarters but can only be used once.

“The site will be abandoned once used.”

Richard fixed his eyes without speaking.

“Ready, my Lord…”

Richard looked at the one-ard guardian, who had not raised its head. Its temperant was sowhat timid.

Its eyes beca increasingly strange. This guardian always gave Richard a weird feeling.

It was like when he was in school. He climbed over the school wall. And when he was about to enter the school the following morning, the teacher hit him in the head.

Ferguson was exhausted from suppressing its injuries and had no ti to care about anything else.

It motioned for Richard to stand in the center of the magic circle with it.

Richard frowned. But still went forward and stood abreast.

The one-ard guardian chanted a spell.The magic array on the ground flashed in an instant.

Then, the space in front of them began to blur.

It was not until the mont before the teleportation the guardian raised its head. Relief and excitent filled its eyes.

A bad feeling rose in Richard’s heart.

There was honestly sothing wrong with this one-ard guardian.

At the mont when the teleportation array was activated.

It suddenly pushed Ferguson and staggered out of the teleportation array together with him.

‘Shua!’

The teleportation array was activated with a flash of light. And the two had already left its coverage area.

Ferguson suddenly woke up and turned his head to look at Richard.

Before he could ask anything, Richard shouted coldly.

“There’s sothing wrong with that guardian! This teleportation array is very likely a trap!”

Ferguson was shocked. It turned its head to look at the one-ard guardian’s cold smile.

Anger filled Ferguson’s tone.

“Oddo?!!”

Even though Ferguson was heavily injured and could not stand up, the one-ard guardian was still so scared he took a few steps back.

It gritted its teeth and threw the crystal bottle into the teleportation array.

Richard’s pupils constricted. With a wave of his hand, dozens of grains of sand flew out and knocked the crystal bottle away.

However, the magic array had a powerful suction force. It still forcefully sucked the crystal bottle away, even if knocked out.

‘Shua!’ A large amount of red powder fell into the magic array.

The next second.

The light the magic array emitted was like a fla splashed with gasoline. It exploded with enormously majestic energy.

‘Kacha!’

The teleportation array could not withstand the energy and directly cracked as if it could collapse at any ti.

Then, a hallucinatory blood-colored figure condensed in the air.

Its head had a pair of short horns. Its face was profoundly horrible and savage, and a tail swung behind.

It looked very much like the legendary evil life form…

“Demons?!!”

Ferguson was speechless.

Why would a demon appear at the Scarlet Council’s most secretive transit point?!!!

The Scarlet Council had an unexpected incident!

The phantom of the demon shattered just as this thought appeared in Ferguson’s mind. And it turned into a wave of pure energy.

‘Shua!’ Ferguson was directly dragged into the teleportation array.

Everything happened too quickly.

Richard wanted to save Ferguson, but that boundless energy was sothing no one could resist, even if he exhausted all his strength. Richard suppressed the gravel he controlled the mont it flew out.

It was a powerful force that was far beyond his imagination.

“Richard, go to the Black Oak Manor on 17th Street to find Knowles…”

Ferguson’s voice suddenly rang in his mind.

The next mont, blood-colored energy enveloped Ferguson and disappeared from his sight along with the blood-colored light.

It has finally activated the teleportation array.

‘Crack!’

The sound of shattered glass rang out. The array in front of Ferguson directly collapsed after teleportation.

It only left Richard with a stunned expression and the one-ard guardian in the hall.

“Hahaha, the great ruler has arrived! It will topple down all rebellion!”

As it said that, it looked at Richard fiercely. This human had almost ruined its good deed!

Richard’s heart raced at this mont.

The dragon crystal that could create an A-rank hero was about to be obtained. And now the one who gave out the mission reward had disappeared…!

“Is there anything more f*cked up than this???”
