Chapter 123: A Windfall
“Oh yes, Belek, I heard that the charred body over there is a prince?” Mas asked in all seriousness while pointing at the black humanoid creature lying on the ground not far away. Then, he saw the black creature subconsciously tremble a few times.
“Ah, brother Dyson, you’re talking about Prince Charles, right? What’s wrong? Aren’t you already at his level? Do you still want to silence him and prevent future trouble?”
Belek’s voice became softer and softer until the last few words were as soft as a mosquito.
“Pesident Belek. I know what words to say and what to do at the appropriate instance. What I mean is… Prince Charles, I heard from the people just now that he bullies people and plunders people. I just want to ask about the whereabouts of his ill-gotten wealth?”
Looking at Belek’s serious expression, Mas felt a little embarrassed. Other people were worried about him while he was thinking about how to get rich. It was really…
Upon hearing Mas’ answer, Belek revealed a smile that all men understood. He smiled and explained, “Brother Dyson, the location where Prince Charles hid the stolen money is known to everyone in the upper-class circle of the Storm Empire. Prince Charles placed all the unjustified money in the attic not far from the prince’s residence.”
“If brother Dyson wants it, I’m very willing to guide the way. After all, brother Dyson has helped me so many times. It’s my honor to work for brother Dyson and Master Mas!” Belek chuckled.
Then, Mas followed Belek to the “attic” that Belek had mentioned. Perhaps because Mas had never seen the world, the attic that Belek had mentioned was completely different from what he understood.
The loft was 20 meters tall and the sign was made of gold and diamonds. The words “Prince Charles’ Mansion” were carved with gold and looked very lifelike.
This building’s height could be said to be unique in the entire Storm Empire.
The pavilion that contained wealth was already so extraordinary from the outside, let alone the treasures contained in the pavilion.
Mas summoned the Black-Patterned Granite Puppet from the alchemy space and let the Black-Patterned Granite Puppet forcefully dismantle the door of the navigation protection mechanism.
Seeing that the magic gate that could easily defend against a Level 5 professional was casually destroyed by the Black-Patterned Granite Puppets, Belek sighed in his heart. “As expected of an alchemical creature refined by Master Mas. It can actually destroy such a powerful magic gate with one strike!”
Then, Belek led Mas into the attic door.
What came into his sight were countless pure gold coins and diamonds. The deeper he went, the more he discovered some alchemy items of decent quality, such as alchemy armor and alchemy armor…
Until he reached the deepest part, when Mas saw the treasure inside clearly, even he, who was experienced and knowledgeable, could not help but widen his eyes. Heavens!
It was a pure Level 7 magic bead. From the continuous magical waves emitted from it, Mas could tell that it was a Level 7 fire-type magic bead.
Sometimes, when one was lucky, someone would send him a pillow even when he was sleepy!
It was really effortless. Mas was just worrying about not being able to find an Energy Bead to strengthen his armor. Now, he had picked up such a treasure.
Mas walked up to the fire-type magic bead, looked at the beloved treasure and stored it and the gold coins in the alchemy space.
Unexpectedly, after searching the entire room, there was an underground secret chamber hidden under the room. After discussing, Mas and Belek unanimously decided to go down and see what other treasures were there.
After all, even the Level 7 fire-type magic bead was not precious enough to be placed in the chamber by Charles. One could imagine how precious the treasures inside were.
Mas summoned a Red Crystal Gargoyle from his alchemy space and made it carefully open the hidden door, afraid that it would trigger the defense mechanism of the hidden door.
Mas, who had the Seven Luminaries Battle Armor, was not very afraid of such a counterattack that was similar to the ultimate defense of treasures. However, he still had Belek with him. If Belek died for no reason, who would he ask for alchemy materials in the future?
As the secret door was slowly opened by the Red Crystal Gargoyle, the defense mechanism that he had guessed did not get triggered. Mas led the Red Crystal Gargoyle into the underground secret door first, with Belek following closely behind.
Mas, who was walking in front, found that his vision was pitch black. He then summoned the Double-Headed Murloc from the alchemy space and let it light up the entire underground space with fire magic.
With the help of the faint light, Mas finally saw the layout of the entire underground space. It turned out that the underground space was empty, with only two canine skeletons that were six meters long. He walked forward curiously to take a look.
“Damn!” Mas was shocked. This was a Legendary magical beast, the Hurricane Wolf. As a Level 5 professional, how did Charles lock such a powerful magical beast in the basement?
Could it be that the Storm Empire still needed a Legendary expert that he was unaware of?
At the thought of this, Mas could not help but feel a chill run down his spine. Fortunately, he had already refined the Seven Luminaries Battle Armor and was basically not afraid of outsiders attacking from behind.
He made his trip worth it as he picked up the corpses of two Legendary monsters.
After putting the two Hurricane Wolf corpses into his alchemy space, Mas shouted to Belek behind him, “President Belek, there’s no need to come down. There’s nothing down there. We can go to the auction now!”
After hearing Mas’ response, Belek tactfully climbed up to the ground. As for the claim that there was nothing below, Belek chose to pretend to believe it. After all, only a fool could live longer, right?
Looking at Mas who flew up on the Red Crystal Gargoyle, Belek smiled and said, “Brother Dyson, shall we go to the auction now?”
Hearing this, Mas thought that he had nothing else to do, so he nodded and said, “Okay, take me there, Belek.”
Mas put the Red Crystal Gargoyle into his alchemy space and followed Belek to the Alchemy Auction.
