Sure, hereâs the translation:

"Wait until they all reach the Upper Tier, then we will venture outside the borders. Our end point is merely the starting point for them."
Heidinger said as he stood up, two scrolls appeared in his hand, and he tossed them to the Old City Lord: "Youâve seen it as well, so Iâll head back now. Use them sparingly, these things are difficult to make."
Eric smiled more sincerely, put away the two scrolls, and said kindly, "Donât you often throw a couple to the black market? Itâs not a big deal for you."
Heidinger looked somewhat wistful as he glanced outside the city, turned around, Magic Power quivered, space tore apart, and he disappeared from Dongwu City.
For a Mage at the Golden Upper Tier, as long as the Beacon is adequate, they donât need a Teleportation Array to traverse space on the Xiya Continent.
However, Mages generally rarely do so before reaching the peak, because itâs dangerous too. Once lost, itâs difficult to return.
The smile on Ericâs face gradually faded, and his gaze became somewhat grave; an unrest was about to begin....
Meanwhile, in the Outer City, underground in the Western District.
An Angel who was praying, his hands trembled slightly, opened his eyes without any expression, and looked outside the city with taciturn eyes.
The Clown was dead, died miserably. Black Night Rose had also come into contact with the sss-level potential person, just didnât expect in actual combat, to skip so many tiers and still win.
His eyes flickered for a moment, and he continued to pray silently, his Spiritual Power forming a whole, offering his most devout Faith to the Supreme of the Night.
As his prayers continued, the voice that seemed like a dream murmur gradually grew louder, and after about ten minutes, he opened his eyes again, his gaze even deeper and more taciturn.
He couldnât find the Clownâs Soul, perhaps indicating that battle was at the level of crushing.
He stood up, took out an old-fashioned electronic device, and kept sending something.
At the same time, an extremely mysterious force appeared before him.
The Angelâs body shuddered, and he hurriedly knelt down, his demeanor becoming even more devout.
A crooked, twisting symbol appeared in the void, its contorted form unsettling.
The Angel cautiously looked up for a moment, then lowered his head, devoutly responding to the ancient script, "As you command!"
As that force disappeared, the Angel also slowly stood up, his eyes full of taciturnity, continuing to send messages with that ancient device.
At the same time, a hint of murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
The Supreme had given a response; the handling of Baiyi had only one word: [Kill!]
Since thatâs the case... his gaze seemed to penetrate numerous buildings, looking toward the colossal mansion in the cityâs center....
-----------------
Back in Dongwu City, the traces of blood on Baiyi were also cleaned fresh.
He positioned his own strength, a normal Golden Middle Tier.
If the opponent hadnât known about him in advance, he could kill a Golden Middle Tier, at least an ordinary one.
If the opponent were a boss too, he could still call for backup. As long as the Old City Lord could still keep an eye, then it should be foolproof.
Arriving at the shop, Luoning, who had been frequently looking outside, saw him and her eyes lit up. She exhaled a long breath, smiled sweetly, "Boss! Youâre back, here, drink this."
Luoning took out a bottle of milk from behind the counter and handed it to Baiyi, simultaneously looking a bit admiringly at him.
In her Premonition, Baiyi was supposed to be seriously injured this time, but surprisingly he wasnât hurt at all.
Though the prophecyâs images were somewhat different, she was still very happy.
Baiyi walked forward and couldnât help but pat her head, "No need, you drink it yourself. Whereâs Aileen?"
"Ah, Sister Aileen fell asleep. Lately, she seems tired all day." Luoning pointed towards their room.
"Lethargy...."
Baiyi pondered for a moment, and his eyes showed understanding, "Then donât disturb her. Have any customers ordered anything lately?"
Aileen is an Elf, still a decade away from adulthood, but Elven Talent awakens during their youth to maturity. When their Talent awakens, they often receive Elven heritage memories, manifesting now as lethargy.
Thatâs good, and if the awakening Specialty is nice, maybe a salary raise for Aileen could be considered.
As for leaving, it doesnât matter actually. After all, Aileen is just an ordinary Elf, and though thereâs some affection after long interaction, leaving wonât be forcibly stopped as thereâs no point in that.
"No, someone came last time but left again, saying not to disturb Lord City Lord." Luoning responded earnestly.
Dong dong dong...
"Hello, your dinner has arrived."
Baiyi turned around and saw a cautious goblin, holding a food container standing at the door.
"Mine, mine."
Luoning took out five Copper Coins from the drawer, ran out, and brought back a meal box.
The goblin cast a careful glance at Baiyi, clutching the five Copper Coins tightly, and quickly sprinted away.
Baiyi paid no mind, he was contemplating the shopâs business. After becoming Acting City Lord, it seemed no one needed him to craft equipment anymore...
He pondered for a bit, then took out a phone bought during yesterdayâs walk with Luoning. The online network was bustling, and a phone priced at five Gold Coins was steep.
Yet, it couldnât suppress the novelty and convenience of information.
He opened the messenger app and sent a message to Sabo. Sabo was the Quartermaster, responsible for the rations, pay, and equipment updates for 400,000 troops.
And although Sabo was greedy, he hadnât withheld anything; he was a competent Quartermaster, at most skimming the City Lordâs money on procurement trips, but never the soldiersâ....
Baiyiâs fingers paused in sending the message, realizing perhaps... he would be the City Lord afterward...
However, when he found a new Quartermaster, he intended to replace him. Saboâs work had always been reassuring.
Baiyi planned to place the usually obtained useless equipment, manufactured Barretts, and excess Potions into a Treasure Vault.
Then, the soldiersâ military merits could now not only be exchanged for money but also these high-tier equipment and Potions.
Because he could gain a large amount of Experience Value from crafting equipment and Potions, and selling the crafted items or exchanging them with soldiers made no difference.
In the future, all kinds of income from the cityâs rent, network shares, entry fees, etc., would be his.
He was no longer alone now, and until Dongwu City thrived, everything was feasible.
Thinking of this, waves of knowledge churned in Baiyiâs mind; perhaps future things could also manifest in Dongwu City....
"Boss, would you like to eat?"
Luoning, about to eat her dinner, looked at Baiyi, who was standing there in a daze, and asked somewhat embarrassedly.
Baiyi returned to his senses, glanced at what Luoning was eating, somewhat helplessly, "Why do you only eat this?"
In Luoningâs meal box, there was only the staple food for commoners of this world and some vegetables.
"The shop doesnât have a kitchen, I canât cook." Luoning said somewhat troubled, "And the meals in the Inner City District are expensive, this is the only thing I found that takes Copper Coins...."
Five Copper Coins, ample for her to live half a month in the Outer City District, yet in the Inner City, it only buys one meal.
If it werenât for the salary she thought was exorbitantly high, she wouldnât even have indulged to eat something so good and would definitely have secretly built a stove for herself.
"Why not just eat with Aileen?" Baiyi walked over, took Luoningâs meal, and asked softly.
"Sister Aileen only eats fruit, but fruit is so expensive. One Silver Coin each, I want to save some money.... My mom died because she had no money..." Luoning lowered her head and said quietly, "I donât want to die..."
Grumble grumble...
Her stomach made an untimely noise, causing the little girlâs face to blush a bit.
Being just a twelve-year-old girl.... A slight wave of emotion crossed Baiyiâs eyes: "I overlooked this; youâll have employee meals from now on. Wait for me a moment."
Baiyi went out, returning about ten minutes later with a delicately made meal box in hand, "From now on, there will be meals delivered every morning, noon, and evening... why are you reaching for your wallet? This is employee welfare, free of charge."
In the process of taking out money, Luoning paused, "Really? Boss, you already cover housing; wonât you lose money by also covering meals?"
Baiyi:.....
