The tumultuous night went by very quickly. Undercurrents were probably still brewing between the various factions of power, but everything looked calm on the outside. Nobody tried to stir up any fight for now.

The sun rose high in the sky and shone down brilliantly on the city. Carl stood at the highest point of the castle and could finally take a good look at what this city actually looked like.

The majestic walls and grand castle were only one part of the city, after all.

    Carl merely smiled faintly at the little drama happening in front of him. He did not care whether Bob’s intentions were truthful and he had really slapped Parker because he considered his son’s actions to be rude. It did not matter.“Get them to move aside. Don’t block the way to my house.” The knights did not need to do anything. Carl just had to raise his arm and everyone scrambled out of the way as they trembled with fear.The apothecary got off his horse and walked toward the large house that belonged to him. In the few months he had been away, the roof, the doors and even the front yard had been renovated. The house looked brand-new.“Not bad, eh? You’ve left home for so long and someone’s actually been taking care of the house for you,” said Milton merrily. At the same time, the giant sword in his hand shot out a beam of light that brushed past the necks of the townsfolk.All of them felt weak in the kne

    Carl nodded slightly. He had already resolved to find a way to kill Heath in secret once they had reached the capital. With the tools in his disposal, he was confident of getting it done.Pudding had just completed another round of evolution the night before and had become even stronger now.He rolled his sleeve up slightly to take a look at the little snake. It looked slightly different now, especially its head. There were a few new silver scales adorning the tip of its head, which made it stand out from any other snake.Its body had become tougher and its venom was even more toxic. Not even Carl himself was confident he would be able to find an antidote for Pudding’s venom.However, his plans concerning Heath would only work out as long as that wizard did not appear.His eyes were filled with wariness when he thought about the wizard—Ryan. At the same time, he felt great anticipation, confident he could become as powerful as that man one day. T

    Everyone stood in stunned silence, a little confused as to what just happened. They had been so sure that the powerful beautiful woman would kill them. To their surprise, Carl had actually turned the tables in such a seemingly dire situation.Peace had returned to the underground city. So, they were… safe now?Besides feeling relieved and happy to have survived that ordeal earlier, everyone was also puzzled. Why did that Lord of the Abyss let them off so easily?Melissa breathed a big sigh of relief and her gaze flickered as she asked, “Carl, how were you so sure she wasn’t able to travel from where she was to this underground city to hurt us?”“Your Ladyship, you were too caught up in the situation to notice all the other signs,” said Carl with a smile. “If someone violated you, would you choose to slap them immediately or choose to just ramble on and on?”Melissa understood what he was saying immediately. &l

    A thick cloud of dark green smoke wafted out from the black hole in the middle of the plaza and gathered in the air above the underground city, smothering the city with a terrifying and ominous aura.This scene made Carl wonder if he had unsealed some sort of Pandora’s box and accidentally unleashed a demon that had been suppressed all this time…“Who is it?! Who dares to trespass into my territory?” A voice boomed in the air. The knights felt their hearts pound wildly and glowing stars instantly rose up from behind their backs, prepared to fight. The stars glowed so brightly, yet they were not enough to overcome the dark and gloomy smoke.A shadowy figure slowly gathered in the midst of the billowing smoke. A force suddenly seemed to weigh down on everyone from above. It was as though the sky was about to fall down on their heads, filling everyone present with a sense of dread.“Lowly humans… Are you the ones coveting MY tre

    Carl had no idea if this world had cannons or not. However, that large metal pipe structure in the corner certainly reminded him of the cannons he remembered from Earth. This one looked just as threatening.Henry looked really confused. "What's an Alchemical… Cannon? I've only heard of Alchemical Bombs, but I've never actually seen them before. They're apparently very destructive, equivalent to a full-blown attack from a stage five Starlight Knight."Melissa did not know what Carl was talking about either. She was very well read but she had never heard of "Alchemical Cannon" before either.Carl did not explain anything to them and went over to take a closer look. The more he looked at the machine in front of him, the more it resembled a cannon. It had a mount, and its barrel had a chamber, a bore, and a muzzle.However, he noticed a number of runes on the outer armor plates of the cannon. He touched them and realized that these runes had been carved into t

    The entire underground city was like a ghost town. Judging from the size and number of houses, it was clear that nearly 100,000 gnomes could have been living in this city and had their own little civilization.However, one day, disaster befell them…Carl shook his head. This whole thing still did not make sense.In general, if disaster struck, it would usually cause some damage to the buildings. If the gnomes chose to leave, then they would have taken everything in their homes with them. If it were an emergency, they would still have chosen to take at least their valuables.However, not only had he noticed everyday items lying around their homes, but he had also noticed shiny jewelry and other valuable items like these. Many of the houses were like that.He continued to look around as he thought about what could have happened. After taking a few steps, he suddenly stepped on something very hard. He quickly removed the thick layer of dust to see a rail
