Chapter 959: Chapter 602: The Identity of the Watcher_1

“Yes, sir.”

Upon hearing Leo Ray’s command, Gideon Black and Joshua immediately started to act.

Gideon Black carefully laid the man down flat so that the energy circuits inside his body could flow smoothly.

Meanwhile, the golden life force flowed through Joshua’s hands, beginning the healing process for the stranger.

In just a short while, layers of warm life force energy ripple through the air, providing an immediate comfort.

The “Wild Man” slowly opened his eyes.

“…Am I dreaming?”

Struggling to sit up from the ground, the stranger’s deep gray eyes transitioned from fatigue to astonishment. He then turned to Leo Ray and asked, “Your Excellency, this isn’t a dream. We’re just travelers who happened to pass by.”

Leo Ray responded with a polite smile, “We apologize for the disturbance, please forgive us.”

At the sound, the Wild Man hesitated for a moment. After quickly scanning everyone, he couldn’t hide the overwhelming joy in his voice, “It’s been over 9 years…finally, I see other humans again…”

The man was nearly in tears, overwhelmed with happiness. His body unconsciously started to tremble slightly, and his bearded face was full of excitement.

At the same time, the ‘Wild Man’s’ mind was rapidly processing the situation.

The suddenly appeared group of ten in front of him had varying strengths: at least Tier 3 Peak Level, including eight terrifying Tier 4 and above powerhouses.

Among them, there was even one whose strength he couldn’t measure. The ‘Wild Man’ knew very clearly in his heart…

If a conflict occurred, given his current physical condition, he wouldn’t stand a chance to resist.

Therefore, despite his vigilance, he didn’t show the slightest sign of caution. Instead, he unconsciously revealed a hint of scrutiny in his gaze.

Directly in front of him, Leo Ray could also understand the man’s thoughts.

As he had previously thought, reaching this level of strength meant one was no ordinary powerhouse. They are proud and confident, with unmatched wisdom…even after surviving alone for 9 years.

Therefore, when dealing with him, it was important to employ certain tactics.

Such as appropriate politeness and a sense of dominance.

“Just now, I have asked Ariel Watson, Burt, and Joshua, who are very familiar with the Coldflame nobility, if there were any missing metal mage nobles. They have confirmed that there were none.”

“So it means that he is most likely a local powerhouse or a foreign noble, right?” asked Leo Ray.

As Leo Ray pondered this, the ‘Wild Man’ pulled himself together, lightly coughed, and politely asked, “Sorry for my behavior earlier. May I ask if you all are the powerhouses from Coldflame Kingdom?”

“Yes,” Leo Ray replied succinctly with a slight nod.

Simultaneously, as he observed the stranger’s still somewhat scrutinizing gaze, Leo Ray began to silently contemplate.

From the Wild Man’s question, it was evident that he should also be from the Coldflame Kingdom.

With this conclusion, the potential scope narrows: if there was no matching person within Coldflame nobility, then he must be one of the top powerhouses among the common people of Coldflame. It’s possible that he might have held a high-ranking position within a local influential force.”

Upon reaching this thought, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully to himself and mused, “According to the information I currently have, there seems to be only one person who fits these criteria…”

“I see.”

On the other side, the bearded middle-aged man flashed a grin, revealing his white teeth, and continued, “May I know which one of you is the Prince or Princess of Coldflame Kingdom?”

“Oh? What do you mean by that?” Leo Ray raised an intrigued eyebrow.

To prevent exposing their identities, they had all donned Illusion Masks when they removed their Invisibility Cloaks.

Even the most recognizable figures like Ariel Watson, Burt, and Joshua could not be identified by their appearances.

As a result, the man’s question genuinely surprised Leo Ray.

“Well, Your Excellency, there is no need to hide it any longer,” said the man with a smile. “Looking at the whole Coldflame Kingdom, the only ones who can summon eight Tier 4 or above powerhouses are the Mercenary Guild, Alchemist Guild, and Temple of Light. These large organizations span various countries of the Human Clan, and the only other group who can do this is the Coldflame Royal Family.”

“And how did you determine that we are not from those large organizations?” Leo Ray replied, equally smiling.

“As for the Temple of Light, there’s no need to explain. The people there are always talking about mysterious, divine things with righteous appearances. You can easily distinguish them with just one interaction. As for the Alchemist Guild, most of them are old-fashioned and corrupt to the core.”

Lightly stroking his curly, dense beard, the ‘Wild Man’ seemed very excited, boasting with his hands and feet. After all, it had been over 3,000 days since he had spoken to real people.

“As for the Mercenary Guild…”

Saying this, the bearded middle-aged man hesitated and simply smiled.
