With that, Leo Ray and his party of eight set out from Cyan Town, heading straight for Viennas City under the scorching sun.

Of course, to avoid attracting attention, they chose the smaller roads that deviated from the main paths at Leo Ray’s suggestion.

Moreover, thanks to Taylor’s exceptional perception, even if they happened to encounter other powerful people on their journey, they could easily avoid them without any issues arising.

Currently, in the subordinate team, Linda, Mason Banks, and Abigail had all reached the peak level of Tier 3 Nine-Star.

Scarlett and Amelia were at the Tier 3 Eight-Star level.

Even the clueless Bianca White had already stepped into the ranks of experienced Tier 3 Six-Star powerhouses.

Together with Taylor, whose capabilities were at the Tier 5 ceiling, this lineup could be described as luxurious.

Because of this, when compared to the group’s fast travel speed, even regular Tier 3 powerhouses could only be left in the dust.

On the way, Leo Ray learned more about Viennas City and the upcoming event. Firstly, the auction was being organized by the City Lord of Viennas City,

in collaboration with the local Sanders’ Trading Conference, Merchant Union, Mercenary Guild, and several other major organizations.

For the surrounding regions, it was a grand event.

Not only would nearby city’s nobles and wealthy merchants attend upon hearing the news,

but there might also be some other forces, such as large mercenary corps, adventurer teams, or independent knight corps, for example.

“There are many freedom-loving powerful people in these organizations that are not affiliated with the Coldflame Royal Family. If I could make connections with some of these forces, it would be highly beneficial for my territory’s development, ”

While speeding along and tightly holding Bianca White’s tuft of fur, Leo Ray felt the wild wind blowing in his face,

as he continued thinking, “Of course, the best way would be to turn these powerhouses’ heads into my direct subordinates.”

Thinking of this, Leo Ray lowered his body slightly, and thought further, “Moreover, according to Linda, this Sanders Trading Conference here is quite peculiar; it is jointly controlled by the Sanders family’s direct and collateral lines, with constant competition and intrigue.

Nevertheless, although the collateral line of this Sanders family is also suppressed by the direct line, it has a relatively strong force and holds a dominant position within the entire family’s collateral line.”

“If I can win them over, it would be equivalent to indirectly obtaining the support of the entire collateral line of the Sanders family. This would undoubtedly provide great assistance to Linda’s ascent to the position of the head of the Sanders family.”

Nodding slightly, Leo Ray thoughtfully said, “After all, these collateral line members have long been suppressed by those direct lines.”

Realizing this point, Leo Ray glanced at the rapidly retreating scenery around them, and couldn’t help but show a pensive expression, “It seems that I must find a way to achieve this as quickly as possible. The simplest and most direct way would naturally be to first drive the direct line’s power out of Viennas City.

Even if it causes retaliation in the future, with my substantial financial backing, I doubt they can do much. After all, within the Sanders family, it is expressly forbidden for the direct and collateral lines to engage in open war.

Of course, this does not apply to me.”

With a faint smile, Leo Ray, who felt a bit stiff, slightly turned his body,

and changed to a more comfortable position on the wide wolf back, continuing to ponder, “All in all, it seems that this trip to Viennas City will be quite an interesting journey.”

At the same time, as Leo Ray was mulling things over, the outline of a large city began to gradually appear in everyone’s eyes under the blazing sun.

“Alright, let’s start walking normally.”

Seeing this, Leo Ray nodded to the powerful people around him and casually ordered.

“Yes, Lord!”On the other side, the subordinates immediately stopped and put on their Illusion Cloaks once more.

Thus, as their group drew closer, the appearance of the entire city became increasingly clear.

Upon closer inspection, the city walls were almost the same as those of Golin City, reaching five or six meters in height.

Furthermore, numerous arrow towers stood atop the walls, and the soldiers’ armor gleamed brilliantly, displaying formidable defenses.

However, for Leo Ray now, such a configuration could only be described as ordinary.

“Back then, when I went to Golin City, my strength was only at Tier 2 Five-star, and my territory only had wooden walls that were just over two meters high. But now, not only have I reached Tier 3 Five-star level,

but my territory has also been upgraded with stone fortresses forming the city walls standing up to ten meters high. The most crucial thing is that Cyan Town has 3,000 defense soldiers, as well as Maron City’s 3,000 defense soldiers,

together with the werewolves and the half-elf tribe, and eight directly affiliated Tier 2 middle teams, my strength has long since improved significantly.”

With such thoughts, Leo Ray strode forward and arrived at the city gate.

Here, the flow of people had become extremely dense, almost to the point of overcrowding, bustling and noisy.

From their attire, they were mostly merchants with carts, variously colored mercenaries accompanying them, and ordinary civilians coming in and out.

“As expected of the trade capital, Viennas City, both the scale of the merchants and the density of the city are far superior to Cyan Town. It seems that agriculture is also very developed. I wonder when I can get it under my control?”

Lost in thought, Leo Ray’s dark eyes swept across the vast stretches of green fields outside the city as he looked around.

The elegantly dressed merchants and plain-clothed civilians went without saying,

but the mercenaries coming and going, just like in Cyan Town, still dressed in a wide array of haphazard outfits.

However, their strength was clearly superior, with many elite members not only at Tier 2 level,

but Leo Ray, with his keen perception, even discovered several mercenaries at the Tier 3 level.

“Throughout the journey here, there were indeed many areas plagued by demon beasts and banditry along the way, be it mountains or dense forests. This is probably the reason why the mercenary business is flourishing.”

With this in mind, Leo Ray gestured to his subordinates around him, moving further towards the city gate, and continued observing.

Beyond the multitude of merchants, mercenaries, and civilians, accompanied by the neighing of horses,

occasionally, luxurious carriages passed by, surrounded by elite guards in neat armor.

On these lavish closed carriages, various noble crests were displayed, indicating the noble status of their owners.

At the same time, in the sky, rumbling noises continued as different shapes of flying airships slowly descended towards the city in an orderly manner, landing one after another.

This caused the surrounding people to let out exclamations from time to time.

“Look! That’s the Montgomery Clan’s crest! It’s said that the second son of Marquis Ryan has just successfully married the legitimate daughter of a royal family from the capital!”

“Isn’t that the Blackwood Clan’s emblem? I heard their Grand Elder just broke through his shackles and stepped into the ranks of Tier 4 Powerhouses, being directly granted the title of Earl by the Royal Family!”

“That’s definitely the latest model of the flying airship! The lines are so elegant. The price for one of those must be at least 100,000 gold dragons, right? I’d be content just to touch it!”

During this time, as some of the large flying airships passed by, knowledgeable merchants directly identified the family name from the crests on them, causing exclamations of astonishment.

“Quite interesting, those who can afford these flying airships are definitely high-ranking nobles coming for the auction, right?

I must say, the more I look forward to this grand event.”

With these thoughts in mind, Leo Ray had already stepped into the gates of

Viennas City..
