Boom!
In a flash, Ramon’s spiritual sword shot out and hit the Dagger Dome. However, his strength was still a little inferior to Rocky's, and thus it was a long shot for him to break the Dagger Dome that easily.
“I didn’t expect to have such a surge of power after breaking through to the King Realm. It’s an amazing feeling.” Ramon couldn’t help but sigh as he looked at his hands.
“Awesome, right?” Rocky said with a bright smile.
“Yeah. Can’t be better! Thank you so much,” Ramon responded as he cupped his hands. If it wasn’t for Rocky, he wouldn’t know when he would be able to reach the King Realm. For any spirit warrior, it was very important for them to break through to the King Realm since it was the watershed of their strength. After they reached this level, it would be as if they had entered an utterly different and vast stage.
“Well, there’s no need to thank me. I did this to return your favor. For now, I still want you to keep inquiring about the news for me,” Rocky replied casually.
“No problem. I’m on it.” This time, Ramon received such a big favor from Rocky. Even though he was a man who seemed to be stone-hearted, there was no doubt that it would soften a little towards Rocky. Moreover, he was continuously having a different view of the young man. He knew that although Rocky had a lot of secrets and mysteries surrounding him, he could still fully trust him.
“So, let’s go?” After saying that, Rocky instantly got out of his Magic Spiritual Space with Ramon.
“By the way, I think it would be better if you do not expose your current strength right away. I’m afraid that it would easily arouse some suspicion. You could wait for a better opportunity,” Rocky warned.
“Yes, of course. I guess I’ll go ahead then.” Ramon nodded slightly and eventually left.
“Marcia, Alyssa, I wonder where you are right now.” As Rocky watched Ramon leave, he looked up at the sky above the wide beast farm and revealed a deep longing in his eyes.
Meanwhile, as the mating went rather smoothly between Glutton and Ally, Ally’s emotions had stabilized. After confirming that it successfully got pregnant, Rocky asked Glutton to go back to his Magic Spiritual Space, which made it quite unhappy. However, it also understood that a matter of safety was on the line, so it agreed to him.
On the other hand, although Rocky obtained some news about Marcia, he couldn’t act rashly because this wasn’t sufficient. For now, he could only stay a little bit more in the Sword Spirit City and wait until he collected enough information.
Moreover, since he had become the deputy captain of the Cloudlet Team, he had been much busier than before. He couldn’t go frequently to the Fragrance Pavilion now, but he still went once in a while in order to guide Tessa in the cultivation of the Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill. After all, that was his deal with Timothy and Harrison for him to stay in the city. Recently, Tessa had been getting more comfortable with the skill, but to improve further, she had to rely on her own efforts.
Furthermore, since he was now a little busy to frequently go to the Fragrance Pavilion, Tessa was the one who visited him whenever she had something to inquire or clarify. Therefore, naturally, several rumors were spreading throughout the city concerning the two of them.
Because it was also known that Tessa was engaged to Miguel, it actually put Rocky into an awkward situation. But unexpectedly, since Rocky issued Miguel a warning last time, the latter had never made any trouble yet, as if he didn’t care about the circulating rumors. Of course, Rocky didn’t think that Miguel would just give up like that, but nonetheless, he was not threatened by anything.
Half a month passed quickly and nothing out of the ordinary happened. Everything seemed to be in place and at peace.
During this period, Rocky had already successfully transformed the embryo he produced through asexual reproduction into a cub. Moreover, the growth rate of the cub was several times faster than being carried inside a female beast's womb. As long as the cub took shape, it would be able to hatch into new cubs.
Additionally, through the genetic comparison that he had done, Rocky was able to find out why Hannah couldn’t become a spirit warrior, and he had also come up with a theory and a plan on how to change her genetic defect.
Just after noontime, Rocky had already managed the affairs of the Cloudlet Team and was about to head back to the beast farm when Ramon suddenly came in.
“Captain, I thought you were out with Miss Hannah today?” Rocky asked as soon as he saw Ramon enter the lounge.
“I have an urgent task to deal with, so I had to come back first,” Ramon briefly replied.
“Urgent task? What is it?” Rocky furrowed his brows and was a bit curious.
“Do you still remember the Robber Regiment that ambushed us in the Night-wolf Gorge last time?” Ramon asked.
“The Robber Regiment? Of course, I do,” Rocky replied.
“We just got a reliable intel about their stronghold. Thus, the governor asked me to lead a team to investigate the matter first. But considering the strength of their members, I think it will be better if the two of us do the scouting alone. If we encounter any trouble, we can easily get out of it without worrying about others’ safety. What do you think?” Ramon suggested.
“Yeah, sounds good. Count me in!” Rocky immediately agreed.
“Okay, I’ll meet you here. Get ready first because it may take a few days,” Ramon said.
