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

Capítulo 2269: Chapter 1261: About Other Lords (2)

At the moment the barrier shattered, they clearly saw the undead warriors charging at the front, wielding blades, not only included their former comrades, but also an old skeleton with a crown and gray-white beard that had yet to recede—this was their former king.

After listening to Dilan’s description, a hint of gravity inevitably surfaced on Leo Ray’s face.

For someone like himself who had the allegiance of Nolan and Lina, and had battled several necromancers including Nightmare Knights, the term “undead” as a special forbidden summoned entity was not unfamiliar.

Yet, regardless of how powerful the undead might be, there was a common limitation shared with other summoners: the summoned creature’s total strength could only be equal to or, at most, exceed by one tier the summoner’s own strength.

Even under the influence of some powerful magic artifact, it could elevate the summon only one tier above the summoner’s own power. But the situation Dilan and others encountered was unheard of.

After all, whether it’s controlling undead or other summoned creatures, it requires the summoner to consume their own mana and undergo some potential mana connection, meaning the number of entities controlled would inevitably be limited; unlimited summoning would never occur.

“So, it’s not difficult to see this is precisely due to the effect of the undead lord’s talent.”

“Although the specifics of the opponent’s talent are unknown, it’s certain they possess the ability to transform fallen opponents into undead without regard for the numerical limit.”

Having sorted everything out in his mind, Leo Ray took a deep breath slowly.

No wonder all new subordinates summoned from the start appeared fearful, unable to control their emotions after their tense nerves relaxed completely.

Faced with such a desperate ground of unbreakable despair, the performance of these new subordinates was not cowardly but rather extraordinarily resilient and unyielding.

“It cannot be denied that every lord who governs a piece of land possesses a talent not to be underestimated.”

“Speaking solely of this undead talent that ignores limits, it presents a significant challenge for me, at least for now I don’t have effective countermeasures.”

Thinking such, Leo Ray followed tradition by providing new subordinates with more powerful Tier 4 equipment and storage rings as well as other items.

As for the Tier 3 equipment and other upgradable items carried by the subordinates, Leo Ray naturally collected them all back, casually upgraded them, and treated them as new reserves.

“We are immensely grateful for the Lord’s generous gifts!”

Having received stronger equipment, along with gratitude and admiration for Leo Ray, the loyalty of Dilan and other new subordinates quickly rose to full capacity, determined to pledge their allegiance unto death.

“This will now be your new home, and if we ever encounter that undead lord, I will personally seek revenge for you.”

Saying this, Leo Ray then turned to look at Wite and other Terrestrial Dragon Knights, giving them the same promise.

Amidst the sound of thankful bows from the new subordinates, Leo Ray did not hesitate to take out 1,000 Tier 2 Recruitment Orders for the final summoning of new subordinates.

When the brilliant and dazzling golden portal dispersed again, appearing before everyone, were one thousand magicians dressed in uniform magic robes, clearly from the same place.

“The power is almost universally at Tier 2 Peak, huh? Just 1,000 Tier 3 Magic Medicines will be sufficient to promote everyone to Tier 3.”

Leo Ray opened the overview interface of the new subordinates and nodded with satisfaction.

As for skills, they were quite similar to those of magic squads like Daisy and Sasha Zuman.

“Now that I mention it, including Scarlett within them, whenever I summoned magician subordinates before, they all emerged from the Magic Tower.”

“Moreover, according to Grey, who was among the last summoned, the situation in the Magic Tower was quite concerning, nearly on the brink of collapse. I wonder what its current status is?”

“Especially Scarlett, although she usually appears carefree, as soon as the Magic Tower is mentioned, sadness creeps into her big eyes—clearly worried about the Magic Tower, which isn’t surprising considering it’s the place she grew up in.”

“Hope everything’s fine, the Magic Tower certainly hasn’t stinted on cultivating elite mages for me.”

While Leo Ray was pondering this, a middle-aged mage commander with a scarred face approached with a respectful demeanor.

“The subordinates express their gratitude to the Lord for rescuing us from despair!”

The middle-aged magician knelt to the ground, swearing loyalty to Leo Ray, with all the other magicians doing likewise, their expressions filled with gratitude and respect.

“Please stand up, it’s fate that has tightly connected us together, from this moment we are comrades advancing and retreating together.”

Leo Ray helped the middle-aged magician up, clearly sensing the stiffness and slight trembling of the other’s body—humble and fearful of high-ranking individuals.

Just as Leo Ray mentioned, the middle-aged mage named Ritter, after being helped up by Leo Ray, introduced himself with admiration while marveling internally.

The lord before him not only exuded a mighty presence, but was also accompanied by powerful figures, had such strength been present in his former homeland, it would not have been so easily destroyed.

Upon Leo Ray’s inquiry, Ritter recounted everything before being summoned.

It turned out Ritter and the thousand magicians hailed from the now ruined Magic Kingdom, tasked with guarding the single Miracle Building within the Royal Capital.

This Miracle Building had an extremely simple function: to unfold an Absolute Defense Barrier, safeguarding the Royal Capital and the palace.

However, when two layers of Absolute Defense Barriers were successively breached, the enemy directly sent elite forces into the King’s Hall, fatally wounding the prince designated to succeed the old king who had perished on the battlefield, wiping out everything along the way to terrify other nations unwilling to submit.

After the fall of the Royal Capital, Ritter and others, surrounded by the opposing grand army, struggled to hold on using the extremely sturdy Miracle Building; though teleportation was impossible here and stalled the opponent momentarily, despair from lost resources and depleted ammunition spread quickly within the Miracle Building.

In the face of certain doom, just as despair was poised to consume Ritter and the others, Leo Ray’s timely summoning descended upon them, rescuing the magicians from their besieged position.

“So, that lord possesses teleportation talent?”

After hearing Ritter’s account, Leo Ray first stabilized his emotions, then nodded thoughtfully.

“Indeed, my Lord, the opponent’s teleportation magic is terrifying to an unbelievable extent, not only capable of instantly transporting armies anywhere, but also bringing fearsome demon beasts from the Outer Region into the city, even bypassing ordinary Absolute Defense Barriers.”

Swallowing a bit of saliva, Ritter nodded at Leo Ray and said: “Precisely by first teleporting demon beasts into the city to wreak havoc, then bringing in the army once the city was compromised—this tried-and-true strategy led to my former Magic Kingdom’s rapid defeat, virtually without recourse.”

“Such powerful teleportation magic far surpasses Jasper Richardson, no, this already exceeds the realm of Space Magicians.”

Leo Ray gently rubbed his chin, contemplating deeply.

However, compared to the previous undead lord, this teleportation lord posed a lesser threat, after all, with the blessings of two Lands of Divine Favor, he moved freely within the Human World, able to dispatch troops at will.

“Moreover, Ritter’s description reveals the teleportation lord has yet to dominate the Human World, even resorting to tyrannical tactics like killing as an example to coerce other nations into submission, showing he is indeed a ruthless character.”

Thinking this, Leo Ray focused his gaze again on Ritter.
