"What is it? Is there something else?"
Caelan frowned slightly and looked back at Alyssa behind him.
Alyssa, however, simply took a silver ring off her finger.
"Lord Caelan, the spoils of the Zephyr Knights that we collected together just now should be handed over to you."
To Alyssa, these spoils had only been obtained thanks to Caelanās strength in the first place, so she did not want to take any share of the credit.
After all, these trophies were priceless treasures to the entire human race. They would undoubtedly have to be turned over to the upper levels of the war legion for handling.
That was why Alyssa hoped to leave all of this credit to Caelan.
After considering her proposal for a moment, Caelan did not refuse outright. Instead, he nodded and accepted the storage ring.
"Alright. Then goodbye, Alyssa. If we get the chance next time, letās run an Instance together again!"
...
After bidding farewell to Alyssa, Caelan once again headed to the [Raise Undead] Instance and cleared it all over again.
Naturally, he obtained another [Sacred Necrostone] as he wished.
In fact, because he went all out this time, he even refreshed the clearance record once again, shocking countless awakeners.
That day, discussions about Caelanās strength almost occupied the entire trending list online.
As for Caelan himself, once he had completed his objective, he immediately withdrew and left.
Showing off?
It was just an Instance. What was there to show off about?
Besides, he felt that the past few days had been far too tense. So he decided to return to his manor, relax properly, and enjoy a massage from his beautiful maid.
Just as Caelan was enjoying this rare moment of rest, his communicator suddenly received a call from Caesar.
The next moment, Caesarās shocked projected figure appeared in the open space in front of him.
"Little Caelan, were all these priceless treasures brought back by you from the Highland Tauren?"
Regarding this operation and his general experience, Caelan had already submitted a written report when he handed over the spoils.
Of course, for a small matter like handing over spoils, he naturally would not do it personally. Instead, he left it to his butler to arrange.
What Caelan had not expected was that even though he had already been back for some time, there was still no news leaked from the Highland Taurenās side.
They had clearly suffered a huge loss, yet they acted as though nothing had happened at all.
Caelan had reason to suspect that the Highland Tauren intended to bury this matter completely.
After all, such an embarrassing incident would undoubtedly damage the Highland Taurenās glorious image, and it would also deal a devastating blow to the little prestige they still had left.
Even so, Caelan was still not very satisfied with this operation.
Because of Crawfordās existence, his original plan to go to the Highland Tauren Empire Museum and bring back the trophies had fallen through.
So if he had time in the future, Caelan would definitely go to the Highland Tauren again and thoroughly bring all of those spoils back home.
That said, although the Highland Tauren had already declined, their foundation was still something the Ivorykin could not compare to.
Crawford alone was probably already someone the Ivorykin had no equivalent match for.
While Caelan was thinking about this, Caesar "in front of him" continued speaking excitedly.
"Little Caelan, do you know? Youāve really rendered a great service this time! Not only did you bring back precious trophies, you even brought back the [Zephyr Knights] Instance!"
Hearing this, Caelan froze on the spot.
???
What kind of joke was this?
When had he brought back the [Zephyr Knights] Instance?
He did not know about this at all!
On the other side, Caesar said with a solemn expression,
"Little Caelan, among the spoils you brought back, there is indeed a mark leading to the [Zephyr Knights] Instance. Donāt worry. This credit and honor that belong to you will definitely be handled properly. Of course, because this matter has quite a significant impact, Iāll need to discuss the specifics with your maternal grandfather."
Caelan nodded. He did not care much about honors and the like.
"Alright, Grandfather. You can handle this matter as you see fit."
To Caelan, these spoils were, in themselves, his way of giving back to the Ironclad Legion.
On the other side, when Caesar saw that Caelan did not care much about any of this, he thought for a moment before speaking again.
"Thereās one more thing. Your gains this time have drawn the militaryās attention. In fact, the military has been paying attention to you for a long time. But you donāt need to worry. They bear you no ill will. In fact, to a certain extent, both your maternal grandfather and I are members of the military."
"Speaking of which, when you have time, I hope to take you to the military headquarters for a visit. The minister is very interested in you. Perhaps youāll be able to learn some interesting information from him."
Faced with his grandfather Caesarās suggestion, Caelan did not refuse.
For the entire human race, the military and military headquarters were absolutely a towering presence that could not be bypassed.
Even the Four Great War Legions were actually peripheral organizations of the military headquarters.
The current minister of the military had also long since learned of Caelanās existence.
In truth, the minister had wanted to meet Caelan a long time ago. It was just that he had always been busy with work and had never found a proper opportunity.
On Caelanās side, he had likewise been busy with his quests.
After thinking for a moment, Caelan chose his words and said,
"Grandfather, I have quite a lot of things to deal with recently. After I finish handling them, I can go with you to meet the minister."
Caesar nodded, then subconsciously asked,
"Little Caelan, do you have some other urgent matter? If I remember correctly, you should be about to begin your [class Star Ascension Quest], right?"
Caelan nodded. At the same time, he leisurely picked up an ice-cold cola and took a gulp.
"I just refreshed a record in the [Raise Undead] Instance, and picked up some valuable little materials along the way. Now Iām preparing to continue completing my [class Star Ascension Quest]."
Hearing Caelanās words, Caesar could not help the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.
Caesar could be considered a top-tier big shot who had seen plenty of grand occasions.
But before meeting Caelan, he had never seen anyone speak so casually about refreshing an Instance record.
No, was this kid serious?
He could refresh an Instance record so casually?
And his goal had merely been to get some little materials?
This kid was becoming more and more heaven-defying!
"Alright, Grandfather. Iām going to prepare to continue taking action. Letās talk later!"
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Caelan hung up the communicator.
At the same time, the maid beside him asked while massaging his back,
"Master, are you preparing to take action now? Are you not going to rest a little longer?"
Caelan smiled faintly.
"Before that, prepare some late-night snacks first!"
