Boom!
In a flash, Ramon’s spiritual sword shot out and hit the Dagger Dome. However, his strength was still a
little inferior to Rocky's, and thus it was a long shot for him to break the Dagger Dome that easily.
“I didn’t expect to have such a surge of power after breaking through to the King Realm. It’s an
amazing feeling.” Ramon couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at his hands.
“Awesome, right?” Rocky said with a bright smile.
“Yeah. Can’t be better! Thank you so much,” Ramon responded as he cupped his hands. If it wasn’t for
Rocky, he wouldn’t know when he would be able to reach the King Realm. For any spirit warrior, it was
very important for them to break through to the King Realm since it was the watershed of their strength.
After they reached this level, it would be as if they had entered an utterly different and vast stage.
“Well, there’s no need to thank me. I did this to return your favor. For now, I still want you to keep
inquiring about the news for me,” Rocky replied casually.
“No problem. I’m on it.” This time, Ramon received such a big favor from Rocky. Even though he was a
man who seemed to be stone-hearted, there was no doubt that it would soften a little towards Rocky.
Moreover, he was continuously having a different view of the young man. He knew that although Rocky
had a lot of secrets and mysteries surrounding him, he could still fully trust him.
“So, let’s go?” After saying that, Rocky instantly got out of his Magic Spiritual Space with Ramon.
“By the way, I think it would be better if you do not expose your current strength right away. I’m afraid
that it would easily arouse some suspicion. You could wait for a better opportunity,” Rocky warned.
“Yes, of course. I guess I’ll go ahead then.” Ramon nodded slightly and eventually left.
“Marcia, Alyssa, I wonder where you are right now.” As Rocky watched Ramon leave, he looked up at
the sky above the wide beast farm and revealed a deep longing in his eyes.
Meanwhile, as the mating went rather smoothly between Glutton and Ally, Ally’s emotions had
stabilized. After confirming that it successfully got pregnant, Rocky asked Glutton to go back to his
Magic Spiritual Space, which made it quite unhappy. However, it also understood that a matter of safety
was on the line, so it agreed to him.
On the other hand, although Rocky obtained some news about Marcia, he couldn’t act rashly because
this wasn’t sufficient. For now, he could only stay a little bit more in the Sword Spirit City and wait until
he collected enough information.
Moreover, since he had become the deputy captain of the Cloudlet Team, he had been much busier
than before. He couldn’t go frequently to the Fragrance Pavilion now, but he still went once in a while in
order to guide Tessa in the cultivation of the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill. After all, that was
his deal with Timothy and Harrison for him to stay in the city. Recently, Tessa had been getting more
comfortable with the skill, but to improve further, she had to rely on her own efforts.
Furthermore, since he was now a little busy to frequently go to the Fragrance Pavilion, Tessa was the
one who visited him whenever she had something to inquire or clarify. Therefore, naturally, several
rumors were spreading throughout the city concerning the two of them.
Because it was also known that Tessa was engaged to Miguel, it actually put Rocky into an awkward
situation. But unexpectedly, since Rocky issued Miguel a warning last time, the latter had never made
any trouble yet, as if he didn’t care about the circulating rumors. Of course, Rocky didn’t think that
Miguel would just give up like that, but nonetheless, he was not threatened by anything.
Half a month passed quickly and nothing out of the ordinary happened. Everything seemed to be in
place and at peace.
During this period, Rocky had already successfully transformed the embryo he produced through
asexual reproduction into a cub. Moreover, the growth rate of the cub was several times faster than
being carried inside a female beast's womb. As long as the cub took shape, it would be able to hatch
into new cubs.
Additionally, through the genetic comparison that he had done, Rocky was able to find out why Hannah
couldn’t become a spirit warrior, and he had also come up with a theory and a plan on how to change
her genetic defect.
Just after noontime, Rocky had already managed the affairs of the Cloudlet Team and was about to
head back to the beast farm when Ramon suddenly came in.
“Captain, I thought you were out with Miss Hannah today?” Rocky asked as soon as he saw Ramon
enter the lounge.
“I have an urgent task to deal with, so I had to come back first,” Ramon briefly replied.
“Urgent task? What is it?” Rocky furrowed his brows and was a bit curious.
“Do you still remember the Robber Regiment that ambushed us in the Night-wolf Gorge last time?”
Ramon asked.
“The Robber Regiment? Of course, I do,” Rocky replied.
“We just got a reliable intel about their stronghold. Thus, the governor asked me to lead a team to
investigate the matter first. But considering the strength of their members, I think it will be better if the
two of us do the scouting alone. If we encounter any trouble, we can easily get out of it without worrying
about others’ safety. What do you think?” Ramon suggested.
“Yeah, sounds good. Count me in!” Rocky immediately agreed.
“Okay, I’ll meet you here. Get ready first because it may take a few days,” Ramon said.
“There’s no need for that. I’m always prepared and ready to go!” Rocky said in an eager tone as he
waved his hand.
“Fine. Let’s go.” Ramon showed a faint smirk and didn’t say anything more.
Then, Rocky and Ramon left the Sword Spirit Sect and headed directly for the Grand Sky City after
leaving the city.
Meanwhile, in the lounge of the Wolf Team, Miguel and Xavier were silently sitting when a member of
the Wolf Team approached them.
“Young master, they have already set out,” the member of the Wolf Team reported.
“I see. That would be all. You can leave now,” Miguel replied flatly.
“It seems that our plan is going smoothly. Ramon and Basil didn’t have any suspicion about this. If
everything goes well, I promise that those two will never come back alive…” A sinister smile appeared
on Xavier’s face, confident that their plan to eliminate the two would be faultless.
“Ramon is also a powerful warrior. Can the Robber Regiment really deal with both of them?” Miguel
asked with a little hesitation.
“Don’t worry. I’ve learned that there are also many powerful warriors at the King Realm in the Robber
Regiment. It means that no matter how strong those two are, they would be severely outnumbered,”
Xavier answered indifferently.
“Good. Even though those two are careful and cunning, I’m sure that they wouldn’t see through our
scheme,” Miguel said with a wicked grin.
“That’s true. But we still have to be cautious with the aftermath. If the sect leader looks into the matter,
we have to be sure that he wouldn’t doubt about anything,” Xavier suddenly said with a serious tone.
“Their mission is within the responsibility of the Sword Spirit City. Even if they die, it will just appear that
they are killed while on duty. That kind of stuff happens. No one will doubt about it!” Miguel said
haughtily.
Half a day later after leaving the Sword Spirit City, Ramon and Rocky arrived at an inconspicuous post
house on the road between the Grand Sky City and the Sword Spirit City.
“There is actually a post house in this kind of place?” Although the post house appeared to be rather
ordinary, Rocky felt that it was pretty strange for it to be located at such a place.
“This is not an ordinary post house. This is a monitoring post of the Sword Spirit City, and being a post
house is just a front. With this, we can monitor everything within a mile. There are actually twenty of
these places scattered near the Sword Spirit City,” Ramon explained.
“Oh, I see. That makes sense,” Rocky said as he nodded.
Then, Ramon entered the post house first while Rocky followed closely. Soon, the two of them saw a
middle-aged man at the seventh grade of the Spirit Realm inside.
“Tyson." Ramon immediately cupped his hands as he greeted the man inside.
“Oh, Ramon. What brings you here?” Tyson answered back, surprised to see the captain of the guard
team.
“Well, we are on a mission,” Ramon briefly replied.
“And who is this young man?” Tyson asked as he saw Rocky, which obviously looked unfamiliar to him.
“He is Basil. He’s a member of my team and he has just arrived in the Sword Spirit City not long ago,”
Ramon introduced as he glanced at Rocky.
“Nice to meet you!” Rocky greeted as he cupped his hands.
“Oh? I heard a lot about him. So, he’s that guy who had been causing quite a sensation in the Sword
Spirit City recently?” Tyson remarked as he wore a surprised look on his face. “I didn’t imagine that
you’d be this young. I heard that you’ve already broken through to the King Realm. You must be very
talented!”
“Ha-ha. I’m very flattered," Rocky responded politely.
“By the way, Tyson, we’re here because we need the topographic map of the Purple Demonic Zone.
Please lend me the latest one.” Ramon went straight to the point.
“The Purple Demonic Zone? What are you going to do there? That place is very dangerous,” Tyson
asked as his face instantly got serious.
“Well, we have to sneak into the zone to investigate the stronghold of the Robber Regiment and make
sure that they really have a hideout in there,” Ramon answered straightforwardly.
“What? I don’t think so! The terrain there is very difficult to access. Moreover, that place is a nest of
powerful monsters. Just by common sense, it would be impossible for the Robber Regiment to
establish a hideout in there. I’m not too sure, but the tip you acquired might be wrong,” Tyson said as
he shook his head.
