Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 299 - 298: The Down-and-Out Wandering Poet and the Great Catastrophe_2

At this point of contemplation, Leo Ray, who felt like a tangled mess in his heart, sighed quietly to himself.

Undoubtedly, at this stage, the clues he had were extremely limited.

It was simply impossible to make further speculations.

“Forget it, according to my previous plan, my current goal is still only one, which is to continuously accumulate strength, enhance my own abilities, and be well prepared for any unknown events that may happen next.”

Upon thinking this, Leo Ray’s gaze returned to the disheveled wandering poet not far away.

“All in all, this person may be an important clue, but it’s still uncertain.”

With this in mind, Leo Ray did not hesitate to lead his main subordinates, passing through the surrounding crowd and directly arriving at the front of the tavern.

When he approached the huddled figure on the ground, Leo Ray could clearly sense through his extraordinary perception.

That the other party’s strength was indeed at the Tier 2 Peak Level.

However, the momentum was illusory and insubstantial, like a thin thread, indicating that he hadn’t practiced in a long time.

“Old Nick, Old Nick, it’s not that we won’t give you a drink, but you come asking every day, and we’ve only just opened.”

At that moment, a young attendant with a helpless expression on his face struggled to drag the disheveled middle-aged man called Old Nick down the stairs.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, he was captivated by a bag of glittering gold dragons.

“Go in and tell your boss that I’ll take care of this tavern. Take this middle-aged man in safely.”

Leo Ray handed the gold dragons to the attendant and smiled, then pointed at the middle-aged man called Nick on the ground.

“Please wait a moment, sir!”

With the heavy gold coins in hand, the young attendant’s eyes lit up and quickly, along with another astonished attendant, ran back into the tavern.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them came running out swiftly.

Behind them was a portly middle-aged man, and without any hesitation, the trio gave Leo Ray a grateful bow with smiles on their faces.

Then they carefully lifted the confused and bewildered Nick back inside.

On the other hand, amidst the astonished gazes of the surrounding crowd, Leo Ray entered the tavern and noticed.

That this place was more spacious than Matthew’s tavern in Golin City, although the environment was quite similar.

Whether it was the air filled with the scent of alcohol and vomit, the extinguished old brass oil lamp on the greasy table, or the neatly arranged beer mugs and white towels on the wooden L-shaped bar. Everywhere exuded a strong medieval atmosphere.

“Sir, do you have any other instructions?”

The portly tavern owner closed the door, rubbing his hands as he hurried to Leo Ray’s side with a smiling face.

Without a doubt, the gold coins given by this gentleman just now were equal to the net profit of his small tavern for several months!

Looking at the disheveled middle-aged man not far away, sitting peacefully and gulping down the bottle of wine, Leo Ray casually asked: “Has he always been like this?”

“To answer your question, sir, that is indeed the case.”

Upon hearing this, the tavern owner nodded helplessly and replied: “This guy comes to my place almost every day to eat and drink for free.

He always talks about the ‘catastrophe,’ often scaring away my customers, to the point that I often dream of him eating my tavern dry.”

“Besides the ‘catastrophe,’ has he mentioned anything else?”

Leo Ray slightly pouted his mouth, pondered for a moment, and continued to ask.

“Sir, no, he hasn’t.”

After thinking for a moment, the tavern owner first helplessly looked at the satisfied wandering poet drinking wine not far away, and then shook his head.

“Forget it, find me a separate room, I have something to ask him.” Leo Ray nodded slightly and ordered.

Thus, in a room enveloped in Taylor’s aura and isolated from the outside world, after a patient interrogation, Leo Ray noticed.

That this middle-aged wandering poet named Nick was indeed unable to communicate normally, as his quivering voice kept repeating the words “catastrophe.”Sometimes, he showed a terrified expression, shocked and trembling, like a madman.

Feeling helpless, Leo Ray sniffed the strong body odor of the other and frowned slightly, before connecting remotely to Gideon Black and Orion Wolfe, the two of his own strongest healers.

After describing Nick’s condition in detail, Leo Ray learned that:

The other party’s situation wasn’t due to an abnormal state caused by magic power or mental attack, but simply that they had experienced intense fear.

Therefore, even if they used high-level purifying magic, they wouldn’t be able to heal him. They could only use healing potions as a supplement and wait for him to recover slowly on his own.

“Speaking of which, Lord, without any intervention of magic power, it’s quite alarming to make a Tier 2 Peak strongman feel such fear. He must have seen something really extraordinary,” said Gideon through the mind talk.

“Well, it looks like we’ll only find out the truth about this later on,” said Leo Ray with a helpless smile and then closed the mind talk.

“Alright, since that’s the case, Kelsey, you can arrange for someone to take care of this guy. Don’t forget to clean him up properly,” said Leo Ray, looking at the disoriented middle-aged wandering poet in front of him.

Then, he turned to the red-dressed woman beside him and said, “This person is very crucial to us, so we must take good care of him.”

As he said this, Leo Ray handed twenty Tier 2 Healing Potions to Kelsey.

Currently, Leo Ray had more than 300 Tier 2 Healing Potions, so he didn’t need to worry about the quantity.

“Yes, Lord!”

On the other side, through Leo Ray’s description earlier, Kelsey also realized the seriousness of the matter and promptly saluted.

“As soon as he recovers, be sure to let me know.”

With a slight nod, Leo Ray had just finished saying this when the mind talk notification sounded again.

Upon connecting, Linda’s voice came into his ears: “Lord, me, Serena, and

Stella have reunited and are on our way to the city!”

“Great, just come to my current location.”

Next, after informing Linda about the name and location of the tavern, Leo Ray told the tavern owner to prepare food and began the next course of action.

“Greetings, Lord!”

In no time, under Linda’s guidance, two delicate and charming figures appeared before Leo Ray at the same time.

“Serena and Stella, thank you for your hard work along the way.”

In the closed room, looking at the two identical sisters in front of him. Leo Ray stood up and touched their heads before giving them a Vanishing Ring each.

No doubt, it had only been some time since their last meeting.

However, looking at the well-behaved and agile figures in front of him, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel a sense of worlds apart.

After all, these twin sisters were the oldest and strongest subordinates of his, apart from Taylor.

Thus, after successfully meeting up with Serena and Stella,

The group had a simple lunch, and Leo Ray immediately ordered Kelsey to guide Serena and Stella to find the whereabouts of Clyde Thompson and his son.

“Reporting to the Lord, Serena is in position!”

“Reporting to the Lord, Stella is in position!”

Since Kelsey had earlier secretly ordered people to track them, it didn’t take long for the twin sisters’ monitoring updates to reach Leo Ray’s ears.

“Now that everything is ready, let’s wait for our opponents to make a mistake while attending the first two auctions this afternoon.”

With that, Leo Ray led his subordinates out of the tavern and headed back to Sanders’ Trading Conference.

After passing through the bustling streets, they arrived at the entrance of Sanders’ Trading Conference, where Kelsey, who had been waiting there, greeted them immediately.

There was no doubt that it was time to attend the auction and continue collecting resources and materials!
