The badge in Leiter's hand only had three stars, representing that the Bize family at this time was just an earl family. But whether it was an earl or a marquis, there was no difference in Leiter's eyes and it was not worth paying attention to.
The only thing that attracted him to this family was that he thought about how, today in reality, after he had helped to eliminate all the orcs on the front lines around the Kingdom of Rham, he was chatting with Hepast, and the other party became interested in talking about an experience he had when he was young and struggling.
Hypaster claimed that about a thousand years ago, in order to earn a living and learn alchemy, he sold himself to the Bize family and signed a decades-long contract, which enabled him to obtain certain resources and become an alchemist.
And his talent was accidentally discovered by the people of the Ring Tower during his service in the Bize family, so they redeemed him and started his counterattack in life...
Lei Te smiled, stared at the emblem of the Bize family, and gradually fell into thought:
"These emblems belong to several major families around the capital of the Kingdom of Rui. They have a large number of industries in the capital. It seems that this holy land has a close relationship with the royal family..."
"Hmm? No, according to Hypast, the previous master of the Ring Tower was killed at about this time. Fortunately, the Ring Tower still had a deputy master of the Holy Domain at that time, who ensured that the cutting-edge combat power was not lost, so that the status could be maintained... Could it be that the person possessed by me or Thales is the previous master of the Ring Tower?!"
Thinking of this, Leiter looked a little doubtful, but there was no clear identity proof in his space ring, so it was unlikely to be him. So he turned around and prepared to remind Thales to check himself to see if he could find space equipment or other things that could prove his identity.
At this moment, Thales was holding a ring and closing his eyes, as if his mind was immersed in another space.
Rhett held his breath and waited silently.
Soon, Thales came back to his senses, his eyes widened, his breathing quickened, he looked at his father in shock and said, "Father, I also found a space equipment on my waist. I just went in to observe it and found the proof of the owner of the Ring Tower!"
"The Ring Tower? What kind of place is that?" Manu interrupted.
"The world's top alchemy organization..." Leiter replied, his facial muscles tense, and he looked at Thales solemnly and said, "What else is in your space ring?"
"It's not a lot. I'll pour it all out so you can see it for yourself." Thales said somewhat at a loss. He was going to let his father make the decision on this.
As Thales mobilized his spirit, items in the space ring were taken out one by one and placed quietly on a large and stable stone platform.
The stone platform was condensed by Rhett. Although the original owner of this body was a holy magician of the water system, after passing through this body, Rhett could not inherit his predecessor's understanding of the mysteries.
Fortunately, Lei Te's own perception of the earth element's mysteries is still there, and the fire element's mysteries are fiery. Because the origin of the world a thousand years ago has not been improved in reality, Lei Te cannot find the fiery trajectory he perceives from the surrounding fire elements. In other words, he has some perceptions, but the fire element has not been strengthened and does not have the power to carry this perception! However, relying solely on his perception of the origin of the earth element, Lei Te naturally sensed the majestic earth element, and his strength was almost synchronized with reality.
Looking at the dazzling array of items on the stone platform, Lei Te was a little dazzled for a moment. Among them, there were two bottles of bloodline potions, as well as various common or rare alchemy potions that Lei Te had never touched before, piled up in hundreds of bottles! If these things were put in the outside world, any magician would tear their faces and fight over them. In addition, meditation and breathing methods, as well as some food, etc. are indispensable.
Of course, the most eye-catching item, and the one that Rhett paid the most attention to, was the emerald-colored crucible that was tilted on the ground, next to a big-bellied bottle of potion.
The symbol of the Ring Tower Master - the Emerald Crucible! In the morning light, the entire surface of the Emerald Crucible was flowing with crystal green light, which was extremely beautiful. Although it was said that the actual effect of refining medicine was mediocre, the overall material was extremely hard and difficult to grind, and the erosion of time was minimal. Moreover, it was difficult for the strong in the Holy Land to destroy it easily. For the entire Ring Tower, the symbolic meaning was greater than the practical meaning.
Leiter squinted his eyes and walked forward, gently stroking the smooth jade crucible like flowing water. He let out a long breath, "What Hypast said is true... The previous master of the Ring Tower died a thousand years ago. But I'm afraid no one knows that he and others were both injured and perished together..."
"So... what was the reason that prompted you to fight with the Lord of the Circle Tower?" Manu analyzed on the side: "I think it is very important to figure this out. After all, you have a close relationship with the royal family. Was it a personal grudge, or was it a mission, or some other reason? Of course, if you only focus on finding information about the Blood God Cult Master in this simulation, you can ignore it. But I still think that every simulation should try to maximize the benefits and avoid wasting potential opportunity costs. We have plenty of time, and collecting information and methods to deal with the Blood God Cult Master does not conflict with you gaining more in this world."
"That's what I think." Lei Te nodded and said, "The Blood God Cult Leader may not be in the Holy Land yet, so I'm not in a hurry. And I have no idea where he is at this moment, so we should take a long-term view on everything."
"How about...we go to the Royal City of Rim and the Ring Tower to ask?" Thales asked tentatively.
"That's the only way." Rhett said softly.
Two days later.
Rhett came to the market outside the Ring Tower alone. Looking at the people coming and going, there was a hint of trance in Rhett's eyes - everything was so real. The layout of the entire market was almost exactly the same as the environment when he went to the Ring Market in reality.
On the way here, Lei Te had already figured out his identity by asking travelers and adventurers on the road - the chief holy wizard of the Rem royal family! This identity was both unexpected and reasonable to Lei Te. At first, he also guessed whether he was a member of the royal family, but he did not see any related symbols in the space ring, so he was not sure. It was not until he passed a city along the way that many people saluted him with fear and trepidation that he confirmed this matter.
What’s even more interesting is that after asking many people in detail, Rhett actually found out that in the eyes of the outside world, he, the chief holy magician, has an extremely close relationship with the master of the Ring Tower!
Originally, Lei Te planned to take Thales back to the Reim King City, but after finding out their identities and relationships, he completely gave up the idea. Everyone knew that he had a good relationship with the tower master of the Ring Tower. If they returned together, it would be difficult to explain why the tower master became a third-level magician. He would also attract a lot of attention, which would not be conducive to his war action.
So halfway through the journey, he had to place Thales in a safe enough place - an adventurer gathering place in the Kingdom of Huilu, near the town of Withered Vine in the Dark Jungle, where he had helped Thales find the place where the Dream Eater Elf had been.
Knowing that he was the royal holy magician, Rhett changed his appearance and hid his whereabouts on the way here. He asked many extraordinary people for all the information about the holy magician that was circulating in the outside world. He even had a full understanding of the affairs within the royal family and the basic situation and conditions of the entire current era before he dared to come to the circular market alone.
At this moment, Lei Te's arrival shocked many extraordinary people walking in the market. No one dared to be presumptuous or make noise in front of a holy magician. They even spontaneously spread out to both sides, leaving a wide road for Lei Te.
Rhett did not act in a condescending or overbearing manner. Instead, he walked through the market with a smile on his face, familiarizing himself with the details of the place.
The reason why he didn't put on the airs of a powerful saint was because in the outside world, people's impression of the royal chief holy magician was that he was amiable, kind, and good-tempered. So in order to fit the character setting, Rhett had to imitate the original's behavior as much as possible to avoid mistakes.
Leiter walked slowly. He had heard from others that the Holy Mage would come to the Circle Market several times a year, very leisurely, just like taking a walk. He also got the information through word of mouth, trying to restore it, and sometimes even stopped to look at the scene in a certain store.
It must be said that after a thousand years, even if you go upstream, things and people are still different. The overall framework and outline of the streets on both sides look very familiar at first glance, but none of the shops and people in the market are familiar to me. It's like I have gone to a parallel time and space...
"Lord Vilas, welcome again. What would you like to order this time?"
When passing by a shop with pink walls, a clear and sweet female voice came into his ears. Rhett was stunned for a moment, but he still looked at it as usual. He saw a delicate girl about 1.5 meters tall, petite, and with a pretty face looking at him. Not only did she look like a girl, Rhett also realized that her actual age was only in her early twenties, which was considered quite young in the extraordinary world.
Leiter was just stopping here out of habit, but he unexpectedly came to a store that he seemed to have visited in the past. While he felt the coincidence, he had already walked into the store, smiled and nodded to the girl, and said amiably: "Let's take a look in the store first, are there any new goods?"
The delicate girl was wearing a black and white maid outfit, with the black mesh on her lower body pulled up to her thighs to reveal the white lace. She tilted her head back and blinked her big eyes. Two dimples appeared on her face when she smiled. She nodded cutely, "Of course. The store manager told me yesterday that the set of alchemy equipment you asked her to buy during your previous visits is now ready. You can come and pick it up anytime."
"I also ordered something here?" Lei Te was surprised, but a look of surprise appeared on his face at the right time. He pretended to walk into the store, "Today is really a lucky day. Let me see where what I want is..."
The girl smiled and said, "The store manager said that what you want is too valuable and cannot be placed outside! Please sit down and wait for a moment. I will go and notify the store manager."
"Nila, no need, I'm already here."
A charming voice came from the second floor, and then a middle-aged beautiful woman in a black strapless long dress appeared at the stairs. She had a black bow tied in her hair and a black crystal necklace on her chest. She was dressed in black, exuding a mature charm.
The beautiful middle-aged woman walked up the wooden stairs and said softly, "Nila, you go down first. If you are tired, you can take over with Rose."
"Yes, Manager Vina!" The girl called Nila bowed and then left quickly with light steps.
The middle-aged beautiful woman walked slowly towards Rhett, with an elegant demeanor, and she straightened her full chest, with the snow-covered ravine faintly visible. Her emerald eyes stared straight at Rhett, and her lips painted with crimson lipstick slightly opened:
"Lord Vilas... what you want is too valuable. I have placed it in the VIP room. Please follow me..."
Lei Te nodded, looking at the back of the middle-aged beautiful woman, his brows slightly wrinkled. This young woman looked a little hungry... He looked like an old man, why did he always feel that she had bad intentions and coveted this body? Did she want to cling to his power? Hmm... very likely...
The middle-aged beautiful woman walked in front, twisting her plump buttocks, and her high-heeled shoes stepped on the wooden stairs and the second floor, making a thumping sound. The entire store was very large, and even the second floor was 1,000 square meters. After turning a few corners, the middle-aged beautiful woman pushed open the solid door made of black obsidian, took out a fan-tooth key and inserted it into the hole in the door. After injecting the fiery red fighting spirit, the door slowly opened to both sides.
At this moment, there was no one in the passages on both sides. The beautiful middle-aged woman turned around, threw a coquettish glance at Rhett, smiled charmingly, and then walked in with a twist of her waist.
Lei Te stood up straight, his face unchanged, but he felt more and more confused. Why did he feel that... the relationship between him and the other party was unusual? From the various details at the moment, it seemed that they had experienced this more than once. The other party was definitely not as simple as he thought at the beginning, who was greedy for his body or wanted to cling to power...
The information about the two people is absolutely a secret. Judging from the reactions of the store clerks and people around him when he came in just now, Rhett was sure that no one knew about his relationship with the store manager.
"Could it be a mistress? A sex partner?" Rhett thought of this possibility and his heart sank.
