It’s not that Yang Yu doesn’t want to complete the hidden mission as soon as possible, but the current priority is to wait for Iyas to learn to use holy light and then set out to find her brother.
If he broke his promise, Iyas's favorability towards him would likely plummet, and their relationship would not be able to turn into trust.
Although Iyas's growth value is not bad, they cannot go deeper into her and cannot click on the free attribute points obtained from the underground maze. The gap between Iyas' strength and theirs will only get bigger and bigger, and eventually, she will become a tool for opening boxes.
After much difficulty in prying this good seedling of Iyas from someone else's flowerpot into his own back garden, Yang Yu also wanted to watch Iyas thrive, rather than see any trouble along the way.
Besides, the key to open the door deep in the Goblin Maze was firmly in his hand, so Yang Yu had nothing to worry about.
Even S-rank adventurers can't break open that door. The Goblin King's legacy is safer than imagined. If he goes around the world and comes back, the Goblin King's legacy should not be reduced at all.
If it could be taken away easily, the underground maze would have ceased to exist long ago.
After weighing the pros and cons, Yang Yu chose the safest approach.
Unable to hide his regret in his eyes, Sekamens said disappointedly:
"Really? In that case, I won't force you. I wish you a safe journey."
After saying that, Secamens took Qi out of the arena and met up with Tiebi.
Yang Yu asked Bai Jin to go for a walk on the street and collect some information about the Chaoyang Chamber of Commerce.
at this time.
The Kingdom of Setis, the capital of Jinwu.
In the bustling commercial street, there stands an extremely conspicuous building. The brown clock tower and the large palace design are eye-catching. Elegant sculptures and lush ornamental plants in animal shapes are scattered around the building, which looks very stylish.
No one would have guessed that this building was actually an auction house.
To be precise, the tall clock tower is the venue for auctions, and the rest is a huge chamber of commerce with all the functions required for entertaining guests, storing information, holding meetings, etc.
Those who are invited to the VIP seats by this Chamber of Commerce are all high-ranking people.
Today, a distinguished guest came to the VIP room of the auction house.
This person is a man. His figure and face make him look like a teenager of thirteen or fourteen, but his actual age is twenty-two. His facial features are very regular. He is the kind of handsome guy who, if thrown in a group of girls, will make the girls scream and make them unable to move.
He was sitting alone on a luxurious sofa, with his legs crossed, fiddling with a strange palm-sized cube in his hand.
Each face of the cube is painted a different color, and the whole is neatly cut into 3X3 small cubes. These small cubes can move around on the big cube with their own colors.
What he is doing now is to fiddle with the shuffled small cubes, put them back to their original positions, and restore the entire cube to its original state.
No one asked him to do that, he was just doing it for fun.
While conquering an underground maze, he accidentally discovered the design drawings of this thing and asked his teammates to make it.
From then on, restoring the Rubik's Cube became one of his daily pastimes.
But no matter how he turned it, he could never solve the Rubik's Cube again.
Today, he pieced one side together as usual, but he quickly shuffled it again and continued looking for a way to truly put the Rubik's Cube back together.
Suddenly, someone knocked gently on the door of the VIP room.
Before he could say "come in", a young girl with orange hair, dressed extremely delicately in a gorgeous red dress, walked into the VIP room.
She lifted her skirt slightly and saluted the young man.
"Mr. Gordon Reiner of Red Blood Rose, I am Liuli Sertis Rising Sun, one of the main persons in charge of the Golden Crow Auction House. It is an honor to meet you."
As a branch of the royal family, Liuli Setis Xuri and her family rarely mention their full names that are related to the royal family.
The reason why Liuli gave out her full name so confidently was, firstly, that the man in front of her had a special identity and revealing her full name would make the other person feel valued; secondly, it was also to leave a good impression of being straightforward on Gordon.
However, Gordon was not interested in this stunning beauty. He stopped turning the Rubik's Cube.
"Have you found anything we asked you to find?"
Even if Liuli was dissatisfied with Gordon's cold treatment, she would never show it on her face or in her words. She just smiled as usual.
"Mr. Gordon, our auction house has never received the item you are looking for. However, if something similar appears in our auction house in the future, we will inform you as soon as possible and invite you to the auction house."
Standing up from the sofa, Gordon put away the Rubik's Cube.
"Thank you very much. We will also send the spoils to your auction house for auction. I hope to hear good news then."
After saying that, Gordon walked towards the door, and Liuli hurriedly said:
"Mr. Gordon, it's a rare visit here, why don't you have a quick meal before leaving? You are also a big customer here. Whether it's buying or selling, we have received a lot of care from you. If possible, I hope to stay and have dinner with you."
"No need."
If we don't get any useful information, staying here is just a waste of time.
Gordon did not stop, but walked straight past Liuli and left the Chaoyang Chamber of Commerce's auction house.
Watching Gordon go away, Liuli stood there, motionless. She closed the door of the VIP room with an expressionless face. After making sure that there was no one around, she quickly walked to the seat where Gordon had just sat and sat down.
An indescribable red ripple appeared on her calm face.
"whee-"
"hey-hey-"
The corners of her mouth curled up wildly, and Liuli tried hard to restrain herself from laughing out loud, but in the end she couldn't help it and let out a weird laugh like a nymphomaniac.
"Cute, cute, cute. (X50)! Ha-ha-, His Highness Gordon is as cute as ever today, with such a small body and such a young appearance. It would definitely be very comfortable if I could hold him in my arms!
You are worthy of being the captain of [Red Blood Rose]. "
Hugging her shoulders with both hands, Liuli continued to smile foolishly.
"Hehehe, sitting on the sofa where His Highness Gordon once sat, I feel like I'm being hugged by him.
Well, I have decided that I will keep this sofa as a treasure forever.
Whenever I feel sad, I will sit on this sofa. As long as I can feel the same embrace I feel now, I will definitely be invincible, cheer up, and overcome all difficulties. Hehe—"
Although she was upset about not being able to have dinner with the admired Lord Gordon, the moment she talked with Gordon was enough to make Liuli satisfied.
