Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong - Chapter 2998 1639: The Bustling Marketplace (Part 1)

“Oh?”

Upon hearing the mysterious voice of the white-robed stallholder, Leo Ray slightly turned his head, continuing to listen.

“Hehe, Your Majesty, please take a look.”

The white-robed stallholder’s aged palm flipped, revealing a delicate scroll, which was yet another entirely new Magical Potion Formula.

After examining the scroll’s contents, Leo Ray widened his eyes involuntarily; it was precisely a Tier 5 Magic Pill formula for permanently enhancing strength that he needed!

You should know that such a magical potion formula is extremely rare not because first-class forces deliberately control it, but because the Heavenly treasures required for alchemical potions mostly originate in the territories of first-class forces, under strict protection.

Therefore, ordinary alchemists and second-tier powers, even if fortunate to obtain such rare formulas, often find it difficult to locate the raw materials for alchemy, let alone produce a finished product. Over time, everyone naturally stops focusing on this.

This is why the stockpile of such magical potions in second-tier power territories is extremely limited.

However, for second-tier powers with many Cultivation Fields, the demand for such magical potions is not that high; they can still train numerous Tier 5 elite combat powers, which is why second-tier powers have Tier 5 Armies.

“But for me, under the blessing of the Golden Finger Talent, the situation is entirely different. What I truly need is not the Tier 5 Magic Pill formula but the upgraded Tier 6 formula!”

Suppressing his inner joy, Leo Ray maintained a calm expression as he inquired, “Yes, I am very satisfied. I’ll take this one.”

“I knew Your Majesty would definitely be interested. For ordinary forces, the required Heavenly treasures are indeed hard to find, but for Your Majesty, this is certainly not a difficult task.”

The white-robed stallholder chuckled, handing the scroll directly to Leo Ray, “Since Your Majesty has taken a liking to this item and has given me so many benefits, I am willing to gift this formula to Your Majesty!”

“Oh? Then I won’t be polite.”

Leo Ray raised an eyebrow lightly, smiling.

“That extremely meticulous stallholder actually offered the Magic formula to the Majesty of the Humans directly?”

Seeing this scene, the surrounding independent powerhouses widened their eyes in disbelief.

Due to the distance, they couldn’t tell what the formula was, but they were certain that the stallholder indeed handed the formula directly to Leo Ray.

Around Leo Ray, even the accompanying strong individuals showed surprised expressions, momentarily not responding.

You should know, this is the Shadow Market. Even though these independent powerhouses may seem insignificant compared to first-class forces, they are still reputable powerhouses in various places, or they wouldn’t be invited to the market.

In such a place where each can take what they need, the stallholder surprisingly asks for no return, which is indeed unexpected, especially since a Tier 5 Magic Potion Recipe is sufficient to exchange for a Tier 6 ordinary weapon.

After a brief moment, the accompanying strong individuals quickly understood the reason.

Your Majesty’s power has long since changed dramatically. Although it cannot yet rival the enormous first-class forces, it is another giant in front of these independent powerhouses.

Thus, it’s not surprising that the white-robed stallholder chooses to flatter Your Majesty; he’s looking for a strong backing.

Surrounded by focus, Leo Ray naturally knew this, which is why he took over the stallholder’s scroll without hesitation.

The reason for claiming the entire stall was not only necessity but also to deliberately impress the independent powerhouses, including the white-robed stallholder.

Because the purpose of this trip is not only to build alliances with first-class forces but also to win over the strong independent powerhouses.

“Through understanding, I know these independent powerhouses mostly originate from major first-class forces, but for various reasons, they choose to go solo.”

“For these independent powerhouses, the self-important first-class forces naturally disdain pulling them in, letting them fend for themselves. But for me, they are invaluable strengths.”

“If I can bring all of this strength under my command, it will significantly benefit my future actions.”

Just as Leo Ray thought about this, indeed, the white-robed stallholder, after pondering for a while, took the initiative and said, “Your Majesty of the Humans, actually, I have a sincere request.”

“Your Excellency, feel free to speak.”

Leo Ray maintained a faint smile as he replied.

“I’ve long heard of Your Majesty’s reputation, starting from helping third-class forces drive away the giant dragon group entrenched at Mist Dream Peak, to strongly eliminating the Witch Demons harming one side, and then leading the Grand Army to help second-tier powers escape from the oppression and plunder of the Broken Wing King, earning widespread respect and trust.”

The white-robed stallholder nodded solemnly to Leo Ray, sincerely saying, “I’ve had enough of the unsteady wandering life. Although I have no outstanding talent, I still wish to contribute to Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will allow it!”

“Your Excellency need not be modest; those who stand within the Shadow Market are leaders of this region. Now that Your Excellency chooses to stand with me, I am truly delighted.”
