The assassination of the Flame Fang has come to an end. There should be no more assassinations from the Flame Fang in a short time. Gray stayed in the Fergus family for a few days and then set off for the royal capital.
In order to increase the power of the three hybrid abilities to a level comparable to that of a king, the fire bloodline and ice bloodline must be upgraded to the king level.
The Storm Mercenary Group is looking for the king-level blood beasts of the ice system, and it will probably take a lot of time. However, the blood of the king-level blood beasts of the fire system is easy to obtain, so Gray decided to get the blood of the fire system first. Obtained the blood of the king-level blood beast.
Because he had been to the Royal Capital before, and there were teleportation points along the way, Gray quickly teleported to the vicinity of the Royal Capital, and then quickly arrived at the Royal Capital by flying.
Stopping in front of the gate of the royal capital, Gray walked inside on foot.
As the political and economic center of the entire Purple Moon Kingdom, the prosperity of the Royal Capital can be seen. There is an endless stream of caravans entering and exiting the city gate. Gray hired a carriage and went to one of Francis' residences in the Royal Capital. .
The blood method that Francis practiced was the blood method of the Purple Flame Beast sequence. The opponent should have the blood of a king-level blood beast of the Purple Flame Beast sequence in his hand.
After the announcement, Gray was welcomed inside.
Purchasing the blood of the Purple Flame Beast sequence king-level blood beast went smoothly, and he bought a copy easily. Francis only received a symbolic 1 million gold coins.
It was originally intended to be presented directly to Gray, but Gray did not accept it.
Being able to buy the blood of a king-level blood beast was already a sign of great care for him. Many people couldn't buy it even if they had money. If he didn't even accept the money, he would be really embarrassed to accept it.
"This time I come to the capital, I have to stay a few days!"
In the garden pavilion, Francis said.
"I had this plan, but now I'm being targeted by the Flame Fang, and I'm planning to avoid the limelight in the capital."
Gray joked.
The Flame Fang has temporarily given up on assassinating Gray. Gray knows this very well, so this sentence is more of a joke.
"The Kingdom of Flame is too rampant."
After hearing Gray's words, Francis frowned.
He was naturally aware of Gray's assassination, and Gray reported the matter to the royal family in the form of a letter. Of course, in fact, the royal family had already received the news before Gray reported it to the royal family.
Originally, the royal family planned to send a king-level powerhouse to bring Gray to the royal capital for protection. The royal family knew Gray's potential very well. Knowing that Gray was being targeted by the Flame Fang, the royal family would naturally provide Gray with protection.
However, after seeing Gray's letter, he gave up the idea.
The traces of the battle were so obvious that one could tell at a glance what scale of battle it was. Even if Gray wanted to hide it, he could not hide it.
Therefore, Gray told the truth about most of the battle. Only the situation of Marlowe and Sydney was concealed. The part he told truthfully included the first-level defense of the king level that is difficult to severely damage. After all, this is what he can block. The key to attacking with silver weapons.
Knowing that Gray had such defenses, the royal family gave up the plan of bringing Gray to the royal capital.
With this kind of defense, even if a king-level powerhouse attacks Gray, it will take a lot of time. With the King-level powerhouse of the Flame King being monitored and unable to sneak into the Purple Moon Kingdom, there is no need to worry about Gray's safety. of.
"Speaking of which, you were a blessing in disguise this time. You actually got a silver weapon. What kind of weapon is it?"
Frances had a slight look of envy on his face.
Silver weapons are too scarce. Even as the successor of the Purple Moon Kingdom, he does not really own a silver weapon. The silver weapon he held last time he went to the Endless Ice Field was only temporarily lent to him by the royal family for self-defense. , after returning to the royal capital, he had already returned it to the royal treasury.
"A gun-type weapon."
In Gray's hand, a bloody spear appeared, the color as deep as blood.
The long handle looks like two snakes entangled together, and the head of the spear looks like a poisonous snake's fangs.
The terrifying and cold murderous intention seeped out from the tip of the gun, giving people a creepy feeling.
"It is indeed a silver weapon!"
Francis reached out and took it, looked at it carefully, and then returned it to Green. There was envy in his eyes, but it was very pure and had no thoughts of possession.
As the successor of a country, the entire kingdom will belong to him in the future. If he doesn't even have this courage, then he will not be selected as the successor.
After leaving the Francis mansion, Gray first visited the three Saroyan people living in the palace, and then went to Sophia's mansion.
He had been here several times, and all the servants in the mansion knew Gray. Under the respectful guidance of the servants, Gray was led into a living room. Soon after, Sophia arrived.
"It seems there are no missing arms or legs!"
After looking Gray up and down, Sophia joked with a smile in her eyes.
"Then I'm going to disappoint you. I'm not good at anything else but my defense."
Gray shrugged.
Sophia rolled her eyes and sat elegantly across from Gray.
Because she was at home, she was wearing a blue skirt with a hemline at the knees, revealing two long white legs. Her long purple hair was spread out, with two strands on each side hanging on her chest. She was fresh and natural. .
"You couldn't be frightened and come to the royal capital to seek protection from the royal family, right?"
"Why are you so smart? You've already guessed this. Unfortunately, you just arrived in the capital and you don't even have a place to stay."
Gray pretended to be pitiful.
"Then I'll be kind enough to take you in."
Sophia pursed her lips and smiled.
In the following days, Gray stayed at Sophia's mansion and enjoyed the treatment of a royal member.
Although Gray has never been stingy about his life, compared with the life of the royal family, it is obviously a notch lower.
The staple food of each meal is basically the flesh and blood of wild-level blood beasts, the side dishes contain magical fruits and vegetables that can promote the growth of strength, and the drinks are made of high-grade blood beast milk.
Under such a diet for a long time, it is difficult not to improve your strength. No wonder there are many strong people in the royal family.
However, such dietary standards, without corresponding foundation, cannot be supplied for a long time at all, no matter how much money you have, you cannot achieve it.
The reason why the royal family is able to do this is because it has formed a complete supply chain and there will be no missing links, which is obviously something ordinary forces cannot do.
"That kind of fox-shaped blood beast turns out to be called a ghost fox."
Naturally, Gray couldn't stay in Sophia's mansion just to earn a living. A diet that improves strength requires long-term consumption to achieve significant improvement. It will not have much effect in a short period of time.
His real purpose is the precious books in Sophia's library.
For him who has the ability to transform, he can never have too much knowledge about blood beasts. Only with rich knowledge about blood beasts can he choose the appropriate blood beast blood for transformation.
From Sophia's collection of books, he found a blood beast with an almost identical description to the fox-shaped blood beast he hunted last time. He was almost certain that the fox-shaped blood beast he hunted last time was the ghost fox.
In the evening, at the Palace of the Purple Moon King, a figure wearing black clothes and covering his face climbed over the tall wall of the palace and fell into the wall silently.
A pair of patrolling palace guards arrived. He dodged and hid in a corner where the palace guards could not see him. The speed he displayed was at least that of a king-level warrior.
As the most important palace of the Ziyue Kingdom, the patrol teams and secret sentries are naturally extremely dense, and working together, the entire palace has almost no blind spots.
But this black figure relied on its king-level speed to avoid the intensive patrols and secret sentries, and passed through palaces one after another, heading deeper into the palace.
Finally he reached the deepest part of the palace.
When he came here, one of the khaki metal rings among the rings on his hand was activated, and a completely imperceptible wave spread. Then, in his eyes, the terrain deep in the palace became transparent. , the entire structure was transmitted to his mind in the form of three-dimensional perspective.
Where are the rooms, where are the corridors, where are the gardens... everything is intuitively reflected in his mind.
He went straight to one of the rooms that looked very ordinary. After groping in the room for a while, there was a slight sound. The wall of the room, which had no visible gaps at first, slowly sank, revealing a staircase going down.
Going down the stairs, a long passage appeared in front of him.
When he came here, a white ring on his hand was activated, and a layer of white light spread around him, and then he walked forward along the passage.
Originally, as a royal secret room, there must be rune mechanisms, but along the way, he did not trigger any mechanisms, as if all the rune mechanisms had been closed.
Finally, a stone door with beautiful carvings appeared in front of him. With a hint of joy in his eyes, he pushed the stone door open.
Through the white light that enveloped him, he saw behind the stone door.
What catches the eye is a dazzling array of treasures, including mountains of magic coins, mountains of gems, precious magic weapons, and precious rune items...
Suddenly, his expression changed and he retreated sharply. At that moment, a purple flame beam suddenly emerged from the secret room and hit him.
Purple flames illuminated the secret room, and a figure appeared in the secret room. It was one of the king-level experts from the royal family of the Purple Moon Kingdom.
boom!
A terrifying loud noise suddenly sounded in the royal capital. Gray and Sophia, who had already fallen asleep, were startled. They stood up, quickly put on their clothes and walked out of the room.
"what happened?"
Gray and Sophia met, both of them looked surprised and uncertain. The sound just now was obviously the sound of a king-level battle.
boom!
There was another loud noise, and then they saw a purple pillar of flame rising into the sky, like a volcano erupting, straight into the sky.
Vaguely, there seemed to be a figure in the purple flame beam.
