“Our main goal this time is to purchase supplies and gather information.

Please act discreetly, suppress your own aura to the lowest level, and pretend to be ordinary travelers.”

Standing by a wooden camp gate, a cheerful Leo Ray spoke again.

Without a doubt, this was his first time preparing to go to a human city since his transmigration, and his heart was naturally filled with uncontrollable excitement.

“Complying with Lord’s orders!” On the other side, Taylor, Gideon Black, Serena Clark, and Stella Clark all saluted and spoke in unison.

“Very well.” Hearing this and seeing the luxurious lineup before him, Leo Ray nodded with satisfaction, “Let’s prepare to set out.”

Undoubtedly, with a Tier 5 Powerhouse, a Tier 4 Powerhouse, two Tier 3 Powerhouses, and every role for close combat ranged healing and assassination covered, this lineup could compete with a well-equipped army.

Stepping out of the camp gate and onto the wolf tail grass, Leo Ray invigorated himself as he took in the scent of the plants and turned to the burly man beside him, “Taylor, we can begin.”

And so, with Gideon Black’s surprised gaze resting on him, Taylor lifted Leo Ray after saluting.

Immediately, like an arrow leaving the bowstring, he flew out at a speed of 3.8 at 100 kilometers, leaving behind only lingering dust and a dumbfounded muscle priest Gideon Black.

“To have a Tier 5 Powerhouse sit on him, no… truly worthy of being My Lord.”

Witnessing this once-in-a-century scene, Gideon Black involuntarily adjusted his glasses, and his bright eyes flashed with amazement again.

Then, he steadied himself and spread his dark golden magic wings, taking flight with Serena and Stella hot on Taylor’s heels.

At the same time, with the rapid movement and mingling of the fierce air, a familiar prompt sounded in Leo Ray’s ears.

[Congratulations, your Tier 4 Five-Star Dark Healer subordinate Gideon Black has developed a sense of awe toward you, increasing his loyalty by 5 points, currently at 74 points.]

Thus, the group moved forward, traveling swiftly through the vast forest.

Wherever they went, like a tornado, the surrounding leaves rustled.

In no time at all, the five of them arrived at the river on the west side of the territory.

“Taylor, put me down first.”

Gently patting the burly man in front of him, Leo Ray revealed a thoughtful expression.

Standing on the thick branch of a towering tree, he shaded his eyes with his hand, looking through the leaves at the dazzling sunlight and gazing toward the river.

Upon close inspection, everything was just as Taylor had reported earlier.

The nameless river was about a hundred meters wide with surging currents, dividing the entire forest in two. It was indeed an excellent natural barrier, greatly enhancing the security of the territory.

“That being said, this grand river scene really evokes a heroic feeling.”

Feeling the light moisture in the air and looking down from his elevated position, Leo Ray sighed inwardly.

“My Lord, our current location is in the middle of this river.”

The waterfall upstream is extremely steep, pouring down from the mountains in the north.”

As Leo Ray pondered, the burly Taylor added.

“So that’s the case. How’s the width of the upstream river?”

Pausing, Leo Ray listened to the crisp sound of the waves crashing against the shore and continued to inquire.

“My Lord, the upstream river is narrower, the currents are more turbulent, and the terrain is very dangerous,” Taylor replied with reverence.

“I see. If we utilize this river properly, when the time comes, it can be worth an entire army of 10,000 soldiers.”

Nodding slightly, a sharp glint flashed in Leo Ray’s eyes as he grinned.

A few moments later. he refocused and said to Taylor and the alert Gideon

Black and Serena and Stella, “Alright, let’s move on.”

“As you command!”

As the four subordinates responded, Leo Ray felt his body lighten, and together with the others, they turned into a blur, flying over the river surface.

There was no doubt that although this turbulent river was amazingly wide, all the subordinates were high-level powerhouses, including the speed-specialized Serena and Stella. Crossing such a distance was a piece of cake.

In the next second, just before touching the water, a visible layer of faint energy appeared on the feet of all subordinates. They stepped on the water surface as if they were walking on flat ground.

Gideon Black, on the other hand, didn’t need any explanation. Effortlessly flying low over the river surface while adjusting his glasses, he displayed an elegant demeanor.

Gazing at the scene of walking on water that only appeared in movies, the commanding Leo Ray couldn’t help but exclaim in his heart.

Within the blink of an eye, they crossed the hundred-meter-wide river and smoothly passed through, not even stirring a single ripple on the water’s surface.

After that, his party continued to move forward. Not long after, as surrounding trees became sparse, the vast green plains ahead began to come into clearer view.

By now, it was undeniably the first time Leo Ray and the others truly left the Demonic Shadow Forest and entered the new world beyond.

“My Lord, Cyan Town is not far from us now.”

As they hurried along for a while more, Taylor slowed his pace and spoke beside Leo Ray.

“Understood, let’s start walking.”

Nodding slightly, Leo Ray jumped down from Taylor’s body with practiced ease, landing steadily on the ground.

Meanwhile, Gideon Black and the twin sisters also slowed their pace and resumed normal walking speed.

A few minutes later, Leo Ray noticed several marks of varying width left by carriage wheels on the grass along the way. A few steps further, a well-maintained road, along with additional tire marks and footprints, came into his sight.

Now, even the faint figures passing in the distance and the occasional neighing of horses could be seen and heard.

“Are we finally getting there?”

Noticing this, Leo Ray couldn’t help but feel elated, and he quickened his pace.

Thus, the party followed the footprints and continued on, eventually joining a wider main road.

Soon, the silhouette of a city gradually came into clearer view..
