Chapter 154: Chapter 150 The Golden Glow of the Harbor (3K)_1

Translator: 549690339

Time slowly slipped away, and the Festival Grounds Secret Realm, which was perfectly synchronized with the Eternal World, quietly ushered in its dusk.

The setting sun slanted westward, the daylight gradually darkening. Taking its place were the lanterns that lit up across the town-like venue, appearing to intensify the festival atmosphere.

The Lords became more and more anxious.

Even though half a day had passed, there were only a small number of lords who were confident in recruiting heroes. Aside from Kong Ming, Wuji, Ba Long, and others like Big Boss Tianyuan, not even the second-ranked Wangba dared to say he was secure.

This was because he was not satisfied with recruiting ordinary heroes.

Since Tianyuan could freely choose among the top heroes, how could he be content?

In the supply area,

Jiang Luoxing sat down with a slap, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and gulped down a few cans of cold drinks, “This competition is too intense. If you can’t gain the favor of the target hero before revealing the benefits, it will be more difficult when the final stage arrives, after all…”

He was under a lot of pressure.

How could the conditions of their new territory and troops compare with those of the veteran lords?

He had to continue to strive, unlike Big Boss Tianyuan, who could freely enjoy the time to come.

Lord Shepherd wasn’t just indulging in a feast, he was constantly observing the heroes. But he didn’t approach them, didn’t try to make connections.

From what he learned from Jiang Luoxing and Liu Miumiu, as well as the information from an earlier gift given by a sister of wealth, he already had a deep understanding of the famous heroes in the Festival Grounds – limited to the previously known heroes.

“The heroes here don’t come from troops. Most of them didn’t get promoted through the Hero Trial either. Rather, they did something that fits the bill of being a ‘hero’, and then were rewarded by the world to become heroes. This, too, can be seen as an alternative form of trial.”

“There are no weakheroes; they start off at least from two or three-star Rare rank.”

But heroes can’t be measured solely by their rank and stage.

The combat power of heroes is often far superior to those of the same rank and stage, and it’s not uncommon for Rare-rank heroes to slay Excellence-ranked war generals.

This is not because heroes are domineering, but because only the strong can reach the realm of heroes.

Similarly, heroes have a higher chance of a major rank breakthrough than regular troops. With the advancement of the land rank, heroes bound with the Lord and the territory may someday leap into higher realms.

This is what the lords call ordinary heroes, who still possess infinite possibilities.

Further up, there are advanced and top-tier heroes.

“If we talk about rank, one or two-star Excellence Rankers are advanced heroes, and three-star Excellence ones are top-tier heroes. But rank isn’t everything.”

The General Gluttonous and Dragon Blood Martial Maiden, who were enjoying themselves with his feasting, were both at the three-star Excellence rank.

In particular, the latter had a high probability of awakening abilities like “Transform into a Giant Dragon”, due to her not-so-low dragon bloodline purity. If he was able to recruit the Dragon Blood Martial Maiden, he could become a full-fledged Dragon Knight, which excited him just thinking about it.

However, as a lord, Mr. Mu needed to consider the bigger picture and not just rely on his personal XP and happiness.

When Mr. Mu observed heroes, he did not focus on their rank, strategic talents, or XP appearance but mainly studied their character and accumulation.

Character matters. Even if the recruited heroes made a contract under the witness of heaven and earthand wouldn’t harm the territory, a hero with poor character can still bring bad influences to the territory gradually and subtly.

“The Great Arcanist Blaze was said to have been the head librarian of some ancient kingdom. He has stored countless knowledge in his mind, and is essentially a walking human library.”

In Mu Yuan’s mind, this Great Arcanist ranked in the top few.

“Valkyrie Luoligiya, the military commander of some ancient kingdom, has the ability to train and upgrade Female Warrior troops. Moreover, she is proficient in both magic and martial arts, and is not a simple brute.”

This one was good as well. And to be honest, some part of this liking was due to her appearance…

Who isn’t a member of the appearance association?

Whether heroes or him.

Fei Xi, ‘Princess of Pure Water’, according to legend, she was born in a weak Principality and was inevitably offered as a sacrifice to a monstrous vortex out of desperation. However, she turned misfortune into fortune. Eventually, she transformed into a water spirit and killed the monster, gaining her heroic status from the world. However, Fei Xi was heavily injured in this battle and didn’t live long.”

‘Princess of Pure Water’, thisprofession was basically a hidden one, very powerful and even seemed good at production.

Liu Miumiu was keen to compete and recruit this princess, but…

The Queen of Shen Yao Empire and several other powerful lords were all vying for her. Even though Liu Miumiu had a good rapport with Fei Xi, she was far from competitive. Mr. Mu had heard from her that she was prepared to give up and recruit other heroes.

The lords were displaying all sorts of strategies.

Mr. Mu was still busy eating.

Duo Lai was in the middle of a feast.

Amid the somewhat tense atmosphere, suddenly, “Ding—” a melodious and cheerful bell sound resonated above the Secret Realm and echoed far away.

Many of the lords who were on edge jumped up, as if they had heard a bell ring during a tense examination, and only then came back to their senses, “That scared me to death, I thought the festival was going to end. I haven’t even managed to talk to any heroes yet, damn it!”

But the tolling of the bell also signified that changes had quietly taken place.

From this moment on, the lords could view the basic information such as the names, ranks, abilities, etc., of the heroes, as long as they focused their attention.

The details of this information depended on the lords’ personal abilities.

That was the rule of the Festival Grounds.

The heroes could check the lords as well.

Mu Yuan immediately looked over the heroes he was interested in, and the information he saw at this moment… was very detailed, surprisingly so.

Without focusing, without waiting, he just looked over and information surfaced like a data stream.

The level of detail…

It felt like a lord was checking his own troops’ information.

“While I certainly am a man with numerous gold and purple attributes, this detail is, quite frankly…”

Incredible!

At the same time, various lights were reflected in Mu Yuan’s eyes.

The rank of the heroes was only ‘Excellence Three-star’, but they each had a few advantages and characteristics, emanating a bit of purple light.

No, there is another true epic hero present!

– Thunder King!

“Born as a Thunderbolt giant, with unparalleled battle power, he is the undisputed ruler of the Leiyun Mountain Range.”

Mu Yuan has long known this information, but what he sees now is far more detailed, including the Thunder King’s likes, favorite food and drink, key experiences, etc.

What the Thunder King likes most is to adopt sons.

This hero cannot actually be recruited. He was already active in the festival grounds over sixty years ago or even earlier. Yet many Lords who come here would be recruited by the Thunder King who asked them to become his adopted sons.

Indeed, there are quite a few idle lords who have pledged allegiance to the Thunder King. Cities and territories rely on the Leiyun Mountain Range, amounting to a small kingdom.

Mu Yuan knew it well, he understood that he could not recruit this king who ‘does not wish to pledge allegiance to anyone’ and is ‘high in position and power’.

Moreover, the Thunder King’s attraction to him is just so-so.

He has already had two Epics in his family and there will be more in the future.

He continued to look.

“Steel Fire Alchemist: Mastering a complete set of alchemy skills, possessing equivalent strategic talent, and having the venue skill ‘Steel Boiling Furnace’.”

“Blind Nun: Excellent two-star special occupation. Unlike ordinary nuns, she purifies all filth with unparalleled swordsmanship. Her realm of Sword Intent has already reached accomplishment and she possesses several destructive techniques.”

“Knight of Daylight: A knight inheriting from the ancient Bright Empire, knowledgeable and dutiful. He already possesses the venue skill ‘Land of Radiance’, etc.”

“General Long Xiang:…”

“Star Maiden:…”

“Moon Shadow Dancer:…”

“Ghost-faced Swordsman:…”

And so on.

These people, along with the Valkyrie, the Great Arcanist, the Holy Light Master Sacrifice, the Princess of Pure Water, the Dragon Blood Martial Maiden, and other heroes, can be placed among the top ten heroes.

Three of them are not on the list of power heroes given put forward by the officials and the archival information, obviously they are ‘new heroes’.

As for the rest of the heroes, Mu Yuan sees more detailed information than the archived data. For example, the ‘Blind Nun’, the archived data just listed her as a high-tier hero, obviously unaware that she has already accomplished Sword Intent.

“This information can be provided to the Tai Xuan Alliance. The data in the previous archival information was also provided by the previous excellent lords, which is convenient for the newcomers to recruit specific heroes.”

As for getting contribution points from providing information, it’s not so important anymore.

“Finally, it is the real recruitment time.”

The lords became anxious and restless.

Those heroes who had the idea of allegiance were also serious and solemn. Today’s choice will concern their whole lives.

Then suddenly,

Hum

In the center of the Secret Realm, on the festival square, a silver line appeared out of nowhere and as if being pulled outward by an invisible hand, it turned into an uneven silver Space Gate in the blink of an eye.

A lord with silver hair and red pupils walked out of the gate.

Two heroic generals flanked him on either side.

Hum

The Space Gate closed. The silver-haired lord disdainfully glanced around, a slight corner lifting at his mouth. An invisible stifling atmosphere spread out, forcing the surrounding lords to back away in dismay.

This was Artistic Conception!

Although the Festival Secret Realm forbids combat, such suppression by artistic conception and aura is not within the forbidden scope.

The newcomer clearly knew the rules.

And…

“Silver hair and red pupils… This is the Lord of the Yongxing Empire! Damn it, they’re here again.”

Deep in the Secret Realm, inside a temple,

A figure emitting a faint golden glow was a bit annoyed. He/She was the Spirit of the Secret Realm, the manager of the Festival Secret Realm. But…

The Lord from the Yongxing Empire who arrived had not violated the rules.

He had just made use of extra special rules.

The Spirit of the Secret Realm could not expel him, only clicking his/her tongue, grabbed some food in apparent annoyance, and stuffed it into his/her mouth.

The Lord of Yongxing ignored the other Tai Xuan and Shen Yao lords, or those who didn’t even have any faction at all.

He just surveyed the surroundings, looking for his own goal.

According to the Astrology Guidance, there is an extremely potential hero here. He gulped him down. Otherwise, considering his noble status, he wouldn’t condescend to do such trans-boundary things.

“Found it.”

He had a faint smile on his face.

The air of artistic conception spread out, forcing the people to separate where he passed. He walked straight towards his target.

The heroes looked at this domineering lord. For the majority of heroes, there was no difference between Yongxing, Tai Xuan, or Shen Yao.

But in the eyes of some of the heroes waiting to be recruited, suddenly a dazzling golden glow burst out.

It was brilliant, resplendent, and extremely warm.

Like an enchanting harbor, driving them to explore it.
