Volume 1 Chapter 387

Chapter 387: Where Did the Sneaker Come From in the Holy Empire?

After finishing his painting, Krado did not stop talking, but continued to work hard.

"So, let me briefly explain our tasks and plans."

"Because the City Master of Silver Citadel has blocked the news, I do not have a clear understanding of the current situation at ‘Wild Boar Mountain’, so I can only make a simple plan."

"It is certain that the terrain and location of Wild Boar Mountain have not changed much; its western foot is still about six kilometers north of Silver Citadel."

"From above, Wild Boar Mountain looks like a huge lying wild boar, covering a very large area; it could be called a small mountain range, and its landscape and the types of monsters there are very complex."

"In the middle part of Wild Boar Mountain, at the location of the wild boar’s back, is the half-plane channel, but I am not sure exactly where it is. I only know that the closer you get to the middle of the wild boar’s back, the more powerful and unfamiliar monsters you will encounter."

"At the same time, Silver Citadel is indeed carrying out some secret plans, with warnings and patrols around Wild Boar Mountain… This seems to be approved by our chancellor and His Majesty the king."

"Therefore, our first step in the plan should be to cross the warning line and patrols of Silver Citadel and approach the edge of the half-plane’s influence area for simple exploration… We need to determine what exactly this relic is, its strength, and also try to find out what the City Master of Silver Citadel is really doing."

"Does anyone have any questions?"

Krado said, and everyone gently shook their heads.

The masked nobleman showed a smile.

"Very well, then we will proceed with the plan… The action will start tomorrow morning. We will set out under the pretense of ‘going out of the city to gather resources’ and move towards Wild Boar Mountain."

"Now let’s move on to the next part… Shall we all introduce ourselves? Let’s share our levels, jobs, and titles… since we probably don’t know each other well yet."

"I’ll start as the employer… I am a middle elite level mage, skilled in elemental magic, particularly fire and earth."

Clearly, this nobleman had a certain noble presence.

When he said this, Lolth realized that he had not really tested any of the newcomers; he probably only glanced at their magical energy fluctuations.

Lolth was curious why no one asked if they could join, and Hood hadn’t mentioned whether joining required a test—especially since he didn’t seem to be a core member, Lolth found it even more puzzling where this person’s confidence came from.

Now it seems that Lolth understands.

Everyone who joins, this noble called Krado has absolutely no assessment!

Is this the noble of the United Kingdom of South Sotua, where people are foolish and money is plenty?

However, thinking carefully, it doesn’t seem right; judging from the recent intelligence work and the skill in making promises, he doesn’t seem foolish.

The only explanation Lolth can think of is that this noble is someone who only excels at intelligence work and making promises.

Or, he simply does not care whether the mercenaries he hires are strong or have hidden agendas.

Of course, Lolth also does not care about the reasons or motivations of the other party.

Just like she doesn’t care about what schemes the City Master of Silver Citadel has.

Even if the matter involves half-planes and ancient civilizations, Lolth does not pay much attention.

Anyway, as long as someone needs me, I can prove that I have been to Half-Plane!

Any grand conspiracy or big rewards have nothing to do with me; it’s better if they never involve me at all.

But then again, Lolth noticed something.

That is, this noble is quite lucky.

Even without counting my own lack of effort, at least he has already gotten a pretty strong member — that little girl from the Seven Kingdoms, who is holding an unknown weapon, is definitely stronger than all the mercenaries at Silver Citadel!

After Krado introduced himself, it was the turn of the little girl from the Seven Kingdoms sitting right next to her.

"I come from the Clean Ader Duchy of the Holy Lieto Empire, I’m of Elite Level, and my profession is Ranger Sneaker, skilled in stealth and information gathering. You can call me ‘Ling’."

She spoke concisely.

However, Lolth did not believe this story at all.

This is so fake!

Let’s not even talk about how this personal image doesn’t match this identity at all.

Where did a Sneaker come from in the Holy Lieto Empire?

That thing uses Shadow Magic just like Maider’s "Shadow Archer"—using Shadow Magic in the Holy Empire or The Church of Light’s base will get you burned at the stake the next day!

Besides, "Ling" is the most common girl’s name in the Eastern Seven Kingdoms!

However, it seems that Master Krado, Hobbit, and Hood don’t see anything wrong!

Lolth could only hold back any comments and pretend to be very happy to meet you.

Next to introduce himself is Hood.

"My name is Hood Tru, I am a knight, Elite Level high rank, and I have a magical beast named ‘Thick-Shelled Long-Tailed Lizard’. We both excel in defense!"

Hood spoke warmly, and Lolth was slightly surprised.

It turned out that the magical beast tied up outside the alley was a "Thick-Shelled Long-Tailed Lizard."

This was the first time she had seen a magical creature from the main plane; she had only read about it once in books.

Hmm… I remember someone recorded that this kind of creature is one of the few that is considered edible when cooked, and its meat has beneficial effects.

Of course, this is not the Abyssal Demon’s opinion; it is the main plane standard of "edible."

And for Lolth, even creatures that are regarded as completely inedible by the main plane might be made delicious, let alone those that are somewhat edible!

Unfortunately, this was after all the mount of her temporary teammate.

She should ask Hood where he caught or bought it when she has a chance.

After Hood was done, it was the little Hobbit.

"Florence was born in Silver Citadel, and is a Superlative Level Middle Level knight!"

The Hobbit said, with a hint of pride in his voice.

Indeed, among everyone present, he was the only one whose ‘wave’ exceeded Superlative Level.

To Lolth’s surprise, this Hobbit was also a local from the United Kingdom of South Sotua.

He even chose the extraordinary profession of knight!

The Hobbit is a very unique part of the dwarf race, and they strongly reject being grouped with other dwarves, which makes them rare on the continent.

Hobbits who do not become warlocks or warriors are even rarer, like shining Pokémon!

Lolth couldn’t help but exclaim in wonder.

However, after Florence… it was her turn to introduce herself!
